    The restaurant is just beside a temple. Foods are just average. Atmosphere quite relaxing if not crowded.

    The food overall is good, ingredient is fresh, just the order system is a total mess. I have to personally go take the menu and order at counter myself. After 1 hour only they come and tell me the order is not being taken....

    Perhaps has improved, overall the foods is fresh. The foods here is average, some dish is nice. But not authentic thai. Like the roasted chicken, juicy and taste good, but Pricy. BBQ Lamb and Prawn was good as well.

    The atmosphere is quite nice but their service should improve. If you ask them to recommend food they depend on what you like. For me you should have some recommended food la but here is decided by yourself. Pricing slightly higher compared to others. Food is not bad la can have a try. They did provide free parking and got one unlce help to monitor.

    The food we ordered were all okay especially the green curry n stir fry la-la. We dined in at around 4 pm n the restaurant was empty so they had a table to serve, so I would say the service was okay too. It’s worth the try.

    A place that I will never return due to poor service. Ambience: Nice Food quality: Authentic good, but not outstanding until can overcome the poor service. There are many authentic Thai food options available. Staff service (particularly to the lady who is in-charge of counter): Very slow and not attentive. Arrived around 7.45pm, seated within 5 mins. Did not give us menu until 15 mins later I went to counter to take the menu myself. Went to counter to order, but the lady asked us to wait and she will come over, another 15 mins down the road, she came to take order and said β€œyes can order, tik tok tik tok…” (sounds like chasing us not to delay and quickly order), while we ordering halfway she went back to kitchen to talk to another staff without apologizing. I looked at my bro, he looked back innocently said he not yet finish order. Well, after a real short while, the lady came back and continue to order, by the time finished order already almost 8.30pm. At 8.51pm the first dish served, we waited until 9.15pm but the first order (the special roasted whole chicken) was not served, my brother went to counter to ask second time and remind them, the lady suddenly said no more stock and suggested us change to drumstick. In my heart, hello, I want the whole chicken for photo purpose. Suspected the lady didn’t pay attention and miss our order because she went away in between. But again, she just pretend nothing and did not feel sorry for her mistake. Oh, she did smiled anyway.

    The food tastes good and service is good. Weekday is not crowded and there’s lots of large table, good for large number of gathering & dining.

    Worst Tom Yam I ever tasted, not sour but my sweet. Order a jug of lemongrass drink, nobody can finish after a sip. One kind of flavour, no lemongrass taste or smell. After complained, the staff said this is different type of lemongrass . I wonder where this lemongrass came from. Not worth, worst Thai Food in Penang.

πŸ‘ Affordable dim sum with a wide range of selection. It’s not premium dim sum but can fixed your craving. I like their fried food more than the steam one. Fried carrot cake is good. Bun and fish balls also recommended. Queue could be quite long during weekend.
