It’s hard to review this place, as we walked out after sitting for 25 min without any service. No water, drink order, etc. and there were others who were waiting even longer to place their order.

«This little spot is like a shimmering oasis in a residential desert.» Great prices, authentic dishes, and BYOB! A delicious meal in a a cozy casual atmosphere. It’s one of the few places in the area that isn’t «carry out only» and the food is really fresh. I especially enjoyed the soups. We ordered Thom Kha Kai, and a glassy noodle soup, to start. Both soups were totally«mmmmm”-worthy. When my fiancée requested a beer, the snarky waiter directed him to the quickie mart next door. He was completely condescending about the whole thing when we asked«So, can we bring the beers in here?» His response«Why would i tell you about it if you couldn’t?!» — I was starving and didn’t want to risk having a bad food experience so I decided to pretend I was in an episode of Seinfeld and just ignore it. It was the right decision, because when our entrées arrived, they were quick, fresh, and delicious. I ordered the pad see ew, and my fiancée had the red curry. Both totally satisfying. I think I would order something else next time, but it was good. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone in the neighborhood, but don’t make a special trip for it. It would be perfect for a casual dinner meet up with a few friends. And the idea of bringing your own bottle of wine, is actually quite a positive in my opinion.

How to run a restaurant. — Don’t bring the wrong food to someone and then tell them they must have changed their minds. — Don’t insist that the eating utensils provide an infinitely better eating experience when the customer asks for different ones. Yes, thai food is eaten with a fork, but malay food isn’t and since that is also on the menu a request for chopsticks is more than reasonable. — The customer asked for a condiment? Bring them that condiment. Don’t bring them something completely different after saying ‘I’ll bring you something more suited to the food you’ve chosen’ — Do not, under any circumstances, claim that the customer has an immature palate when they send a dish back. It’s insulting, unhelpful, and to an outside observer, hilarious in the wrong kind of way. It’s also considered good practice to actually refund the dish. All this happened to a group of us over the course of a single visit here. A particular waiter here makes Basil Fawlty look like he’d be a top candidate for butler to Queen Elizabeth. The food is mediocre. Avoid this place at all costs.

I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant. I was expecting the food not to be as good as it was due to the prices but the quality of this meal especially the crispy duck was amazing. I would go here again and again. The only perhaps down side were that the portions were a little small but that is understandable considering what you are paying and it being London

This Thai restaurant seems to have an extremely random and remote location, but definitely worth the trip. It was recommended to me by a co-worker of mine, and I would never have been able to find it otherwise. I walked by a woman(who lives in the neighborhood) in the same exact street the restaurant is located in if she knew where it was, and she was clueless. In any case, the food here is bomb. I ordered take-away for two people and was told it would take 15 minutes. It was ready after 10. I ordered beef and shrimp steamed dumplings to start, which bathed in a type of somewhat thicker soy sauce. It was pretty good overall, and I’d give this dish 4 stars. My flatmate had the spring rolls, which were also good and fresh — 4 stars. As mains, I ordered a red Thai curry with beef. Allegedly, they use a paste which they fly in all the way from Malaysia for their curries. The curry was delicious. Spicy and flavorful. My only comment is the beef was a bit chewy. 4 stars, and 5 were it not for the beef. My friend had the pad Thai, which gets 5 stars hands down. The bill came out to 20 quid… very fair price in my opinion for a complete meal. Very happy I could find a delicious Thai place around the corner from my flat. I will be back.
