We were the only diners on this occasion, yet the staff seemed overwhelmed. They explained at length that it was an old menu (to be fair, just a couple of A4 sheets stapled together), and overheads had risen since printing it, so prices were higher than stated (a notice on the table explained the same thing, ending with wishing us a Happy Easter, though we were there in August)... perhaps investing in a printer for the backroom would solve all these problems. The food was very good, though, and prices decent, including for drinks. (My only gripe with that was with the discount card I had: they gave us a 30% discount although it should have been 50%). However, I'd actually come back again, just for the food, but might wait until the menus have been reprinted.

It's been a long time since I've been here. So I thought it was time to visit and review, as a few friends had said the food was good. First impressions was not so good with the scaffolding in front and awkward to get to the front door. Of which I noticed the letterbox was hanging off. We were keenly greeted by a hostess who gave us a pick of tables, it wasn't busy for a Saturday night. My seat, I immediately noticed the cover was split and some was missing. I went to sit and the chair wobbled badly so I swapped it for another, this also was in bad repair but better than the first. Our friends arrived and we ordered drinks from the menu to which we were told no cocktails no Thai beer on tap as no gas and no strawberry Fanta. So a random 3 out of 4 drinks weren't available. We ordered a few starters to share and I can genuinely say they were good, a sharing platter for 2, tempura chicken and grilled pork skewers, all tasted good and I felt a little releaved as at least the food started well. A little unsure about battered vegetables though. The hostesses were keen to check everything was OK and see if we needed more drinks. But it was a little difficult as their stock was so low it was more like what is available rather than having what you wanted. The mains we ordered were, Thai red chicken curry, pork drunken noodles (hot and spicy), oyster chicken stir fry and khao pad pak (a bit like a biryani). These were all completely different and we tried each other's. My drunken noodles are not for the faint hearted. I enjoyed the flavour of the red Thai curry. The least liked was the stir fry. When we came to pay we were told their card machine wasn't working and had to pay through an app on a phone. I'm really pleased with the food, it made the night go well, lifted the evening. But if you're looking for a fancy romantic place to eat I wouldn't recommend it. It looks tired, lacking stock, if I was to guess it seems like the are running dry ready to close. We even asked them and they said they weren't. The toilets were clean but small and unisex. The friendliness of the staff and tasty food has saved this from a terrible score. I rate this as 3.1* out of 5 stars. This restaurant needs a face-lift and repairs to make it great.

The restaurant was nice, and the food was definitely authentic. The food was spicy! Overall, it was a good experience, but as for most places here in the UK, they are tight with the ice and water, which is frustrating when you are eating very hot food. They also need to fix the one bathroom. B+

Big sign outside promoting Happy Hour cocktail only after we sat down to find out that not only they don't do Happy Hour, they don't serve cocktail at all! They said it's for summer. We then ordered a pint which was on the menu but was again told that it's only for the summer. Felt like being deceived. Food was overpriced for both quality and quantity. Pork option is to avoid. It was bland and dry. Worst meal we had over the weekend at Great Yarmouth.

Went here to get dinner. Food was above average. I especially liked the sauces. The staff is friendly. Found the prices to be a little on the higher side. The furniture needs some maintenance.

The food is absolutely delightful here! There were a few hiccups on the night due to staffing but the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was so worth it!! Also really good at catering for coeliacs. Lovely family run business, with great cocktails and desserts just next door that you can eat whilst in the restaurant too. Will definitely be returning. Thank you.
