The food was outstanding. Delicious authentic Thai food cooked to perfection👌. The staff were friendly and efficient without being over bearing. We ate very early in the evening so it was peaceful but it's a good sized restaurant without being too big . This means there is a good amount of space between the tables. Good vue for money too. Couldn't fault the place!

I LOVE coming here for Dim Sum. It’s authentic and consistently the best quality! There are some unique dishes like the XO turnip cubes and my absolute favourite bean curd wrapped prawn Cheung fan that I would highly recommend to try. The service is efficient and really friendly. One thing to bear in mind is it gets really loud during the weekend so it’s well worth coming during the week to appreciate the excellent quality of freshly prepared dumplings!

Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We loved the concept and staff were very attentive. Food was amazing too and great value for money. We attended on a Wednesday evening, so not as busy, but would be a great vibe on weekends I reckon.

Fabulous evening to celebrate our daughter’s birthday with some of her friends. Delicious food, beautiful building and lovely atmosphere. Service was a little slow but everything was done with warmth and a smile. My daughter was given a card and a slice of cake with a sparkler in it - a very sweet gesture.

Another fantastic evening. We booked this to celebrate our friend’s birthday and having eaten here when we last visited the area, it was our first choice. The food and service were outstanding: the tuna tartare and tuna melt croquettes were absolutely delicious and we highly recommend!

Welcoming staff. Frank is very personable. Happy to help in any way. Lovely atmosphere. Wasn’t busy when we went so quiet atmosphere. Have been many times when it’s busy. Delicious food. Generous portions. Very reasonably priced. Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend.

An attractive pub just off the main drag between Danbury and Maldon (Essex) this is well worth a visit to enjoy the extensive menu and hearty portions. The excellent food is backed up by helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff.
