Most Disliked
Some diners find the restaurant can get quite busy during peak hours, leading to a wait for tables, especially during dinner. Although sometimes a wait is inevitable, it’s a small price for such delicious food.
A few customers mention that the spice level might be too intense for those not accustomed to heat, though milder options are available. While the substantial flavor profile is a plus for chili lovers, newcomers to Thai cuisine might want to inquire about adjusting spice levels.
Parking can be limited directly by the restaurant, which might require a short walk from nearby areas, especially during busy times. This minor inconvenience, however, rarely dampens the overall positive dining experience.

Stayed on the campsite, so looked for food for the night as a time out from cooking. Went in early so no wait, and was greeted by a lovely gentleman, Very helpful and service was quick for both the food and drinks, Had the mix starter which was nice - and then shared two main dishes. Staff on hand to help and get extra drinks and sauces. Wasn't too expensive and good value

Visited the restaurant for lunch, welcome greeting - good selection of meals on lunch menu and even more amazing authentic Thai dishes on the full menu. Tried both pad Thai and drunken noodles, quality ingredients and cooked with passion! Cheap soft drinks or bring own alcohol drinks. - had a good conversation with owner / chef talking about produce and real Thai food and this place screams authenticity!! Also if you like your spicy food, this chef does not mess around real spice real flavours! But plenty of non spicy options too! Will return when visiting the area again! Thank you!
