    GENEROUS PORTIONS & AMAZING TENTATIVE SERVICE I had the Pad Thai and usually at other restaurants I leave feeling still hungry, but here I left with my stomach full. The Pad Thai here is different to other places, there isn't that dry grilled flavour, but more of a juicy tender taste. There was heaps of vegetables within the pad thai and generous portions of chicken. The service was top notch and exceeded what I had thought. The owner had a smile and came and filled up glass of water three times for me during my time dining here - this would be a service that I would expect at only a high end dining place! There clearly were regular customers here, which is usually a great sign! The atmosphere is a small street food environment. Clean and they change the top sheet after each diner from what I observed. I would recommend this place and will be back again!

    The pad Thai is not really Thai style but still delicious and big enough for me. The Tom Yum taste good and chicken meat is quite a lot. The spicy level can be adjusted by request. The staff are super polite and friendly.

    The place and ambience makes feel so warmth and welcoming. There is an old guy receiving people and he is really good at hospitality. Great food as well for the price considering the location. They have a dine in too with 4 small tables. Decent menu catering both vegetarians and non vegetarians. Food and portion is also very good. Definitely recommend and going back again. I would say lot of new restaurants should learn from these how to treat customers. He is so kind and considerate.

    A tiny hole in the wall Thai restaurant on busy Customs St, by the bus stop. Only has 3 or 4 tables so seats only a handful of people. Mostly seems to cater for lunchtime takeaway. Tasty food, generous servings, friendly front of house.

    A small place but clean and lovely. The husband-and-wife tandem is really cool. The cook is Thai so the food is authentic and delicious. They serve unlimited water and you can ask for their homemade chilly flakes. Prices are also good for the servings.

    A tiny little restaurant, but the food is amazing, authentic Thai. Great things sometimes come in small packages and this is one of them especially good on the way home from work. Recommend, give it a try. I hope you love the food as much as I do
