   To quote another customer;"The lids weren't put on the trays properly so I ended up with Thai Green Curry on the passenger side & seat...." !! Exactly the same happened to us! Clearly this issue not resolved - recommend taking own sturdy storage container instead of relying on the flimsy lids & paper bags they use, and DOUBLE CHECK THEY HAVE SECURED THE LIDS PROPERLY. Ours weren't - curry had spilled into the paper bag without my knowing it, so when I picked it up to leave the car, the bottom of the bag fell out with the same result, thai green curry all over the passenger seat, into every nook and cranny including the inaccessible areas at the base of the gear stick/seat rails/under carpets etc. When I phoned to let them know what had happened, I was met with a rather lame apology as if it wasn't their problem. What should have been a nice end to the weekend turned out to be a very stressful car cleaning session - the car will stink for weeks! Very disappointed! Considering boycotting in future.

   Party of 12 for a birthday dinner last night (Sunday 06 July). Staff very accommodating with allowing a dessert to be dropped for serving after the meal (requested that they charge something - only fair). Food was excellent - everyone enjoyed their choices, especially our token vegetarian. BYO option very much appreciated. Local restaurants deserve (and need) support. Go treat yourselves.

   Came into dinner for our mums 60th, and the food was immaculate. Fresh, hot, big plates, very flavoursome, good amount of veggies, well presented. Service was great and people in the kitchen are very nice. Support local guys, you won’t be disappointed!!

   Lovely service and nice enough Kai. I got a tofu pad Thai and my partner got the chicken hokkien noodle. Definitely not as good as the red elephant in CHCH, the hokkien tastes a little like plastic to me (my partner disagrees) and next time I will ask for vegetables in my pad Thai instead of the deep fried tofu. But it was done very quickly and we were hungry so it hit the spot well enough.

   The lids weren't put on the trays properly so I ended up with Thai Green Curry on the passenger side & seat. When I advised Barbara that I would be handing the cleaning invoice $55 over, I was met with tight lipped resistance because apparently they 'solved the lid issue 18 months ago'. Clearly it's not resolved so I recommend taking a sturdy storage container instead of relying on the flimsy lids & paper bags they use.

   Absolutely awful! Sweet and sour chicken was inedible, was like dry rubber. Wontons were awful and served with sweet chilli sauce not sweet and sour. Chicken wings were so over cooked they were inedible. The only good thing was the plain rice which after spending over $40 for dinner was the only thing consumable. And in the end My 7yr old son had 2 min noodles….Not good enough!!

   Very disappointing. Ordered chicken? pad Thai, not enough chicken to feed my 3 year old kid. Also ordered satay chicken, again a dismal amount of chicken. Expensive vegetarian noodle dinner. Not recommended

   So dinner with your Girlfriend, Mistress or Secretary will not be accepted by your Wife, Friends or Family so you need to go somewhere good but also out of the way. This is a great place, awesome ambiance, food is great and far enough out of town to be private from prying eyes or embarrassment! Otherwise if you live out this way and have a birthday or dog that stole your thawing roast off the bench (it happens) this is an awesome option and well worth the visit, the food tastes exactly as good as any other place and what you would get in Thailand.
