Everything we ate was delicious, absolutely recommend to everyone who pass through the town. We got spring rolls (best ones I ever had), pad mhe prawn noodles, plain egg fried rice and sweet and sour pork, everything absolutely exceptional.

The Tom Ka soup with prawns was absolutely delicious, full of flavour and generously packed with prawns. The chicken Pad Thai was very tasty as well. I really appreciated that the peanuts and chili were served on the side, ideal for those with allergies and great for adjusting the heat to your taste. The place is cozy, the staff are friendly, and the service was quick. Highly recommend!

Small place accessed from the main entrance of the hotel. Get in early or book as it fills up fast. All food was very nice, spicy and very tasty. The cook is taking care not to over cook food and the effort shows. I enjoyed all of my food and even delicate flavours were there and coming though. Recommended for a tasty and enjoyable dinner.

Felt a bit rushed, people being told you have an hour twenty minutes to eat your meal. Menu wasn’t as many options as I would have expected, but the food was fine.

Fantastic, authentic food! Lovely staff and great service. Definitely need to book a table ahead of time, only a small place and it is very popular. Walk ins get turned away a lot it seems.
