“So good, nicest Thai food I've had in a while! Lovely service too. As a vegetarian, they specially made my pad thai for me to have tofu instead of meat which was a really nice gesture. :)”

“This is one of my favorite Thai places in canterbury. If you live outside of lincoln, it is worth the drive in to try this place. I have had the pad Thai twice and the crispy fish which comes highly recommended. Don't be afraid of the spiciness, get the medium! Beef cheek curry is to die for.”

“Tremendous food and excellent service. Only thing was that as an American Diner there should have been filtered coffee, then I found it. Absolutely perfect”

“Very good dining atmosphere. Had The sushi train experience. Wish there could be more sashimi variety that will be amazing.”

“I recently dined in with friends for lunch, and it was an amazing experience! I tried the Hokkaido Miso Tonkotsu Ramen, and I have to say, it’s an absolute must-try. The rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles made for an unforgettable dish”

“Oh my goodness! This hidden gem of a Japanese eatery is an ideal spot for a lunchtime visit. They craft various delightful Dons that are not only visually stunning but also bursting with delicious flavors. Each dish is freshly prepared and elegantly presented in distinctive bowls, providing a rich cultural and culinary experience.”

“A generous portion was provided at a reasonable price, and the store was clean and tidy, perhaps because it was opened not long ago. Friendly staff, variety of toppings, and delicious food. I think that generous portion than the other shop. I had a satisfying meal with my family and absolutely recommend it.”

“11/10 dim sum spot. Everything was delicious and fresh. Quick, polite service. Weekends have fresh baked pork and custard buns. Very reasonably priced. Menu has pictures and color coded pricing for each set of items ranging from $5.90 to $9.90 with the odd higher priced dish like the Peking duck. Wish I had more room to try more things. We will definitely be back.”

“Excellent service, food was ready fast, good price, great vegetable selection in the black bean beef and meat very tender, sweet and sour pork tender and so yummy, will definitely go back.”

“Great shop. Only had fish and chips from them (a few times) and haven't been disappointed once. Very friendly staff. Clean shop. Indoor seating options. Love it.”

“Ok, this place is just heaven on earth. I can't recommend it enough. The food is divine. I mean heavenly off the charts delicious. They have a seafood chowder to rave and remember. All ingredients were fresh and the seasoning just perfect. The place is simple and doesn't look like much, but it really is a must for the soul. Great selection of wines for a cafe. We had the beef casserole and spicy prawns with some house cocktails and even the chicken sandwich was to die for. Sabina is the most delightful and charismatic woman. Her warm and caring hospitality were truly memorable. We sure hope she comes visit us to Mexico. She freely and thoughtfully shared her advice about travelling around NZ. Honestly, we would dine here if we lived in NZ. The flavours will live in our memory forever. Thank you for a great experience”

“We had a lovely birthday lunch. Food was fabulous, service was excellent and we had a window seat as well. Coffee was perfect too”

“I thouroughly loved their steak, it was well done to congratulations good. The mocktails are pretty refreshing too with an interesting blend that I didn't expect to be that good. I probably would have enjoyed their venison pasta (I forgot whatever its called) better if it wasnt for me arriving after a heavy late lunch. Overall good experience”

“We came here based off a recommendation and will definitely be back! We ate early, so there wasn't much of an atmosphere and the service was a little relaxed - which is fine, as we weren't in a rush. The food was out of this world! The portions are huge and the flavour in everything was just amazing. Our table each had something different and everyone thought that their dish was the best. We honestly loved this place and can't wait to visit again!”

“As a local we are spoilt for choice, awesome bakery, Indian ,chinese and the best rice balls period. But once a week or so i get my regular large mixed meat on salad with Aioli and sweet chilli sauce, pita bread on the side. Perfect, i phone in and its ready when they said , especially love the salad strangely, they ask, but i say all salads. I recommend”
