   Unsure what has happened recently but the food was absolutely terrible. We usually have a fantastic meal here, have been many times over the years. We are absolutely not ones to send food back every but had to send two out of four dishes back. We would have sent it all back but we were too embarrassed. The mixed starter was like something you’d get in a box from Iceland. The noodles were dry and chewy. The sizzling chicken was not sizzling, and it was so so dry. The egg friend rice was also dry - I’m not even sure how that’s possible. We were sat next to the kitchen and could hear the microwave going, which explains a lot. Most of the staff were ok, but they didn’t exactly leave you feeling warm and fuzzy. Only one at the end apologised for the poor meal. They also didn’t have any of the wine left that we ordered but that’s not that bad. But was just another thing on top of an all round terrible meal! Unfortunately will not be coming here again.

   We had a terrible experience 6 of us and a little dog! Who just sat under the table not saying anything! We were told that it was fully booked- we booked a table but had to move because of the dog. No other guests came while we were there. Very rude staff, very confrontational! Loads of ingredients missing from the food we ordered, they over charged us! Definitely won’t be going back! Was my first time in 20years and it’s bad!!! One of my friends goes there regularly and brought her friends Absolutely not on!!!

   Visiting on a short break for our wedding anniversary. We hadn’t booked but luckily they squeezed us into the outdoor area which is LUSH. So beautiful. Food incredible! Thank you

   Wow! The food is amazing and the service was great. We arrived just as the kitchen was closing but they bent over backwards to sort us out with some of the best Thai food I have tasted. They are also Dog friendly ( outside ).

   One of my go to restaurants in Bournemouth, the food, decor and service are always excellent. Highly recommend the starter platter, a personal favourite.

   I was staying for a few days locally as a solo traveller and decided to pop in here one evening. The staff were extremely friendly, the decor is lovely and the food was delicious! Would definitely recommend.
