    went for dinner here for my birthday and had an amazing waitress to begin with, was gushing over my baby brother and was so helpful with ordering. once we began eating it was the best experience, amazing tasting food and a great atmosphere. ordered the pork and bean curd starters, and for mains had the vegetable curry, half roast duck and broccoli and pork stir fry. 10/10 would recommend.

    I personally didn't like most of the food. Ordered the banquet for lunch. The entrees were all too spicy for my liking, the chicken curry was too strong in star anise or cardamom (not sure which spice they use but it was overpowering). I didn't have the lobster but my friend did and he said it was undercooked (a bit raw). The vegetarian noodles were good, dessert was okay.

    Not impressed at all. It was very loud in the restaurant which made hearing the waitresses hard. The food that came out was very small and below an average thai restaurant quality. Although the venue was modern and nice, the price you pay, it isn't worth it.

    We love the deco, lights were dimmed down and it really set a romantic & warm atmosphere. I noticed while we were there it was enjoyed by MANY other couples. The food presented was excellent! From ordering to delivery - it was super quick! Portion sizing was good, had me a cocktail - it was nice (although for $25, it was a tad short from outstanding, although glad i had it - ‘lychee’).. The staff here are lovely, very attentive and helpful when it came to ordering, my husband is a vegetarian and we found that options for him were few hence the 4/5 stars that i rate it. However, a very enjoyable experience, pad thai with prawns and the vegetarian rice noodles was indeed flavoursome - I waited nearly 12 months to dine here and finally glad we did it!

    The sign to get into the restaurant is a bit confusing. The service was good at the start, our waitress was attentive and friendly. Towards the end of the meal, she must have finished her shift and we couldn’t get the attention of any other staff wait staff for about 5 mins to pay our bill. They focused all their attention on the tables closest to the kitchen and forgot about the people at the back of the restaurant. The food was pretty good, a little heavy on the salt. Good size portions, especially the laksa. A tad on the pricey side though. All in all, not too bad but not a restaurant I’ll be going back to in a hurry.

    I had never heard of this place when I was given the opportunity to visit. Noisy atmosphere found in what appeared to be an old storage basement . The staff were outstanding.. all they appeared to do was to ensure our time with them was sufficient to make us want to return. However all of their continuous smiling assurances that our water glasses were continuously full and that we had everything needed for a nice evening seemed to melt into nothing once our food arrived. This had to be one of the most amazing examples of this food either of us has ever eaten. Well worth the time and expense.

    This restaurant is located inside the State Building in Perth CBD. Nice instaworthy vibe. Popular among the trendy crowds. Food was nice. We had fried chicken wings, duck curry and chicken pad siew noodles. I used to come here a lot with my friends before I moved away and it used to have extensive menu back then but not anymore. Unless I was given the wrong menu. Cocktail was nice. Staffs were attentive. Restroom was clean.

    First time. Had heard only praises about Long Chim. And it didn’t disappoint. Not only is the restaurant unusual (being the old Treasury), the music 🎶 funky but the food is absolutely delicious 😋. The menu is not huge (fits on one page) with selected options for starters and mains. The flavours of every dish we ordered were to die for, the staff was very friendly. Service was prompt and accommodating. And don’t forget the cocktails 🍸. Awesome. Decently priced. We’re definitely coming back.

    I doubt you would ever see a bad review about Long Chim. I only had one course, duck fried rice, and a glass of wine, but it was really good. I sat at the high table overlooking the kitchen. Service is fast and spot on. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Great venue. Next time I'll sit outside just for the experience but it was a warm night when I was there and I was over the heat! The courses I think are designed to share but as I was on my own, that wasn't an option. Next time I'll take the family!

    Incredible atmosphere, attention to detail and friendly service. This intimate space is perfect for a catch-up with friends or a date night destination. Good sized portions, exquisite cocktails and beautiful decor. I can't wait to go back for the duck fried rice 🌼

    Really authentic decor. Feels like I’m dining on the street of Thailand. For start, highly recommended ‘’MIANG PRAWN’’ - dried prawns, ginger, coconut and secret sauce - that was marvelous. The spicy pork and rice cakes’s spicy and sour taste was appetizing. They go really well with deep fired rice cake and a side of lettuce. Chicken satay was tender, and with chili sauce it takes the flavor to the next level. As a dessert lover, I have to recommend BANANA ROTI. The condensed milk is really sweet but banana’s sour flavor balances it. The skin was crispy but the inside is soft. If you don’t like less sugar dessert, you must try the coconut cake. Finally, the service was lovely. They were very observant to customers’ needs.

    1. There are no second chances for a first impression....We booked in advance for 7:15pm , however, while walking around the city we came close to the location and as I was aware the place was already open we decided to see if we could instead dine earlier. I politely made that very clear on entering and the chap on the desk assured it was fine and asked if we'd like to have a drink first or go straight thru to the main dining area. We opted for the former, so after waiting at the bar to order our drinks, we consumed these and then asked if we could go thru to dine, again the server said fine, we did go in and then someone else told us no we will have to wait up to an hour even though we saw tables available. Accepting this politely, we went back to the bar, even the server there was surprised to see us back. We kept having to flag someone down to order more drinks, frankly quite upset by now but we soldiered on. At no time did anyone suggest if we'd like to eat earlier we can order and eat at the bar. When we finally figured out we could do this we flagged someone down and ordered. 2. It would be helpful if the menu provided some sort of graphic advising the Spice levels for each dish, of note we are fine with various levels I was just surprised this was not the case as such we found some items plain (spring rolls) and others more spicy. (the flabby fish cakes) 3. Personally, I don't feel the level of service and comfort meets the expectations of an outlet in a five star hotel. However, obviously the place is popular and I can only be baffled as to why. Good Thai food is available throughout Perth city with plenty of better options available.

    The food here is great! Every dish made a good impression and we loved every dish that was recommended by our waitress that night. HOWEVER! The manager at the front could definitely use a happy meal because it felt like my requests were blindsided. She sat us down without menus and just walked off. The music on a Friday night was really loud and we were really yelling to have a conversation. Not sure what's up with that. But food is great 👍 5/5 Service 3/5 Ambience 1/5

    Great discovery hidden under the now revamped Treasury Building on Barrack & St Georges Tce. Known as a Thai Restaurant it has a marvellous multi splendid menu with very interesting Cocktails. The Staff are a mixture of friendly to vibrant spontaneity who are willing to guide you in your choices of yummy dishes. We celebrated our daughter's Valentine Day birthday there recently; it's roomy dotted by basement pillars, with a big outdoors venue, a great discovery 😀

    Great customer service. Food was very tasty. We went there on a Saturday night, party of 4 and it was quite packed, gladly we booked in advance. They said they gave a desert for the birthday guest but we were charged, that's ok just contradicting. Overall fantastic, we'll come back as we enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. Best entree was the Chicken Wings, then the Beef stir fry and the Naga Cocktail

    I was here for dinner with my friends and oh my goodness, everything was just way too spicy. I love spicy food but this was just too much I reckon. For the price we paid, nothing was worth it. Great vibes but the food was meh. Even Thai food in Thailand wasn't even this spicy. We ordered the popular Crispy Prawns and they were basically just so burnt and spicy. Couldn't taste the prawns :( I don't really know why that's so popular. Overall, it was a pretty disappointing experience.

    Worst Thai Restaurant I have ever been to, anyone liking their food probably never tasted real Thai food before. Just absolutely horrific.

    Where to begin with this one.... ok, so book your table in advance, now in fact. They're busy, very busy, and if you get to eat there, you'll see why. We got lucky and added ourselves to a standby list, wandered past and they squeezed us in. The service was fantastic, everyone was very knowledgeable about the food and wine. The location was great, very centrally located near other restaurants and bars. The food was crazy good. Like really. If you have eaten at chin chin in Melbourne or Noi in Adelaide it's similar fare. We had fish cakes and chicken satay as starters, followed by deep fried fish, red curry chicken and shared some stir fryed water cress. Everything was amazing. Portions sizes are for sharing, so we had food left over. Ideal if 4 of you go, cos then you try even more dishes. We stuck around in the courtyard for a couple of drinks after. We were too full to eat desserts, but there is always next time. Did i mention, go book it now?

    We went in for lunch. The service was great. Greeted with really friendly waitress. But, we thought Long Chim is supposed to be a Thai cuisine? No Tom yum no Pad Thai. Ordered the safest papaya salad and stir fried eggplants. None of them are spicy. Papaya salad wasn't even sour. :( My Malaysian bf made better Thai salad than this to be honest. Even my 6 years old daughter who couldn't take chili can even eat the two main dishes. Price wise.... So overpriced. Food quality is too far from authentic Thai cuisine. Perhaps more like a Thai fusion. Maybe it's more suitable for amateur Thai food lover. PS: the decors were absolutely lovely but the toilets were too dim worse than nightclubs it's actually fairly dangerous. Hopefully the dinner menus were better than the lunches.

    Very average, service was friendly and great but the food was very bland and we had to get the set menu due to crowd size and it was a rip off for what you get, definately not enough to feed everyone. Most dishes where just greens with no flavour and lots of big chunks of raw onion.

    The food is very nice, a bit expensive for what it is .Staff are very friendly. I felt quite rushed at this venue, there was a rush at the bar to get us to our table once at the table it was a rush to take our order and bring out our food then there was a rush for us to vacate our table. Worth a visit just for Happy Hour

    Awesome restaurant They stuffed up my booking but quickly found us another table, we're super fast and apologetic. Food was spectacular I loved the crispy prawns starter and had a wicked ginger cocktail. The servings were ample and rice was replenished quickly... 6 people starters mains and some deserts, 4 cocktails 340.00 ... not too bad at all Edit : Been back recently Even better ! Service was spectacular and food still great ! ****** 6 stars

    Heads up! This place serves really spicy food and is at the pricer end of the scale so please check that before you go! We had the larb, duck and barramundi. Excellent staff, excellent food.

    One of my new favourites Had a work lunch here and we opted in for the set share menu. Food was absolutely delicious, for someone who personally doesn’t like oysters, I ended up having two because they had fried shallot and chilli oil to compliment them making them actually really tasty. The slow cooked ribs were also amazing. Wasn’t a huge fan of the desserts, particularly the Thai ice cream. The atmosphere was amazing as well as the interior, how ever I did find drinks came awfully slow, also not much choice of bourbon as they came back 3 times saying they didn’t have it or ran out - then unfortunately my partner was without a drink for the first 45m being there. Thankfully apart from that it was an amazing experience.

    My second visit to Long Chim in the beautiful State building & once again not disappointed. To be honest Long Chim is my favourite restaurant in Perth since I relocated here from Adelaide. The menu has many options & catered the vegetarian that was dinning with me. A tasting menu available or choose your own variations to share. Service is prompt, attentive & friendly. Food came to the table quickly & our wine glasses topped up before they were empty. Our waitress had a great sense of humour. After we ate we moved to the bar area in the next room. The cocktail menu tells a wonderful story with pics from Thailand & lists the house special cocktails. I chose a dirty martini 🍸, it came cleverly served in a small glass with the remaining liquid in a small glass jug nestled into an ice pocket. There was a bridal party in the courtyard taking pics with all the colourful shades. If you have hearing challenges the dinning room is not for you as it echos & it is hard to hear if there is a large group booking. Request a quiet table. If you would like to book in on a weekend you need to book weeks earlier or you will end up with no table, 5:30pm or 9:30pm. My partner recently bought the cookbook Thai Food by Michelin star chef & owner David Thompson. Not a book for the faint hearted but if you are dedicated it really pays off. Smart casual dress or dress up. Be sure to try the wine bar upstairs with an extensive range of local & international wines, take away available. I could eat at Long Chim every week!

    Had a fabulous meal here on Saturday night. We had an early booking at 5.30pm and got a great table in the corner which meant it wasn’t too noisy. As we were early, happy hour was available which was a bonus especially with the delicious cocktails that were on the menu. The food was amazing and everything we ate we loved. If you are looking for somewhere with a great atmosphere and fabulous food this is where you need to go!

  • 5/5 Mai R. 8 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    The food was great, we're both Thai and the food was definitely nostalgic. It had the correct flavours. Would have loved to see sticky rice as an options, as they're often paired with some of the dishes on the menu. We were asked if we wanted the food spicy and enthusiastically said yes, it definitely had heat but not exactly spicy. Though we understand it's very difficult to get that right 👍

  • 3/5 steve t. 3 years ago on Google
    Went for dinner with family, four adults. Nice uncrowded seating, lighting a tad dim but tables adequately lit. Front of house staff pleasant and helpful, all drinks and meals/entrees ordered promptly. Of the 4 entrees, 2 came out in good time, however the other 2 were nowhere to be seen. It took several requests to finally see them arrive however far too long, they apologised and we werew comped for them which was nice. The wings were fresh and hot but somewhat lacking in flavour. I had the fried fish, which if I say was disappointing would be an understatement. The sauce and seasoning was fine but the fish was almost inedible. Dry, tough, chewy, consistency of fish jerky. I didnt bother finishing it, it was tiring. I'm not sure if that was the effect they were trying to achieve or did they just get it wrong. I didn't bother mentioning it as I had already complained about the entree and didn't want to appear to over winge. The rest of the party had a mixed bag of results as well. So three stars because of the front of house staff, they were great.

  • 1/5 Mark S. 3 years ago on Google
    Only one word comes to mind; disappointing. All the dishes that we wanted to try were unavailable and we ended up leaving shortly after still hungry. Even though the place comes highly recommended, the staff seem unhelpful and the kitchen fail to have enough food on hand to cater for the evening trade. Definitely needs to lift its game or it'll be another place that was good.

  • 3/5 Tina M. 3 years ago on Google
    Our waitress was lovely and enthusiastic, but unfortunately the food was a little disappointing. My mother-in-law is Thai, so perhaps I have higher-than-average standards. One dish was spicy/hot, but everything else we had was ok. On the positive, we did discover a lovely local Riesling.

  • 5/5 Yannik S. 3 years ago on Google
    I would rate this restaurant amongst the best in Perth. Fantastic food, great flavours and nice presentation accompanied by attentive, knowledgeable service.

  • 3/5 Mehdi M. 2 years ago on Google
    Ordinary food, unsuitable proportions (My pad Thai meal had exactly 3 prawns only, exactly 3 prawns!!!- see attached photo), and pricy (meals were more expensive than average, cocktails even more), and due to a confusion from their end, we waited for around 25minutes to get to a table. The only good thing was the nice cellar-type environment and decoration.

  • 5/5 Matt C. 2 years ago on Google
    Great intimate venue with a nice selection of Thai inspired dishes. Super service from the team and reasonably priced - well worth a visit

  • 1/5 Christopher T. 2 years ago on Google
    Disappointing experience. Ambiance was nice, but definitely did not make up for the lack of standard in the food. Fish was dry, hard, cold and salty. Phad Thai was good but portion was terribly small for the price. Saving grace was that the papaya salad and duck omelette was pretty good. Great place to bring a date for a drink for the ambiance, but definitely not for the food. If you bring her here for the food you probably won’t be getting a 2nd date.

  • 5/5 Mick M. 3 years ago on Google
    The Thai green chicken curry was amazing.

  • 5/5 cantika l. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything that we ordered from Long Chim was really delicious ( Satay Chicken, Crunchy Prawn, Green curry and Chinese broccoli and pork are my favourites ), Especially if you enjoy spicy food & full of spices taste! my parents enjoyed eating here a lot all the way from Bali. They said this one is the best restaurant that they have been to in Perth😋. Service was really good, Kevin did a great job & provided us with great food choices!🤗 Definitely will recommend to everyone & come back🤍

  • 5/5 Pipi M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) If you want to eat authentic Thai food in Perth, you should go here without hesitation. You can enjoy the presentation and taste of high-class Thai food eaten at a Thai resort. The atmosphere inside the store is nice and the courtyard is also good. The price is reasonable, but the satisfaction is high. ============== I've been repeating it many times since then, but it's still my favorite Thai restaurant in Perth. The number of seats on the terrace is nice, but the atmosphere inside the restaurant is very stylish and luxurious. The staff are friendly, and above all, the seasoning is delicious as it is authentic Thai food. It is not suitable for people who are not good at spicy food, but if you like Thai food, please go there. (Original) パースで本場のタイ料理が食べたいなら迷わずここに行くべき。タイリゾートで食べる高級タイ料理のような盛り付けと味が楽しめる。店内も雰囲気が素敵だし中庭もGood。値段はそれなりにするが満足度は高い。 ============== その後も何度もリピートしているが、やはりパースのタイ料理店のなかで1番好きなお店。テラス席数も素敵だけど店内の雰囲気もとてもお洒落で高級感がある。スタッフもフレンドリーだし、何より味付けが本場のタイ料理そのままで美味しい。辛いものが苦手な人には不向きだけど、タイ料理好きはぜひ行ってみて。

  • 5/5 Tennille F. 3 years ago on Google
    Best Thai food I’ve ever had. The staff were beyond friendly and had excellent customer service. This restaurant really goes above and beyond. I have the siamese watercress and I didn’t expect much, but when I took the first bite I was shocked at how flavourful the meal was. 10/10 for both the staff and the food. Definitely a must visit if you’re here in the CBD.

  • 5/5 Andrew M. 3 years ago on Google
    Came here for a Work End of Year dinner and thoroughly enjoyed myself! Not only was the food amazing, but the drink choices (as a non-drinker) was just as great. The food took a little while to come out, but it was jam-packed. Once the food was out, it was like a feast. Amazing food and well worth the visit!

    To be fair, this review is only on one employee. I cannot comment on the food, or any other aspect of the restaurant. I, unfortunately, didn’t feel like staying there after this encounter. At about 5:30pm on the 1st Jan, 2022, upon arrival, I felt measured from bottom to top by a lady, whom I’m assuming, was the host. Then I was ignored by her. I finally approached the lady and asked for a table. She told me, with an accent, and trying hard to use the poshest vocabulary she could come up with, that the main restaurant was fully booked, and swiftly walked away in a I’m-too-busy-for-you manner. The main area she was referring to, had about 30% of the tables occupied. When she walked back to where I was, I tried again to ask a few questions like: I what time her bookings were for (after all, I could see a lot of free tables and I wasn’t going to be long) She didn’t really give me a chance to ask any questions and said very quickly that if I wanted to I could sit outside, that it was all table service, and that they had a 15% surcharge today (public holiday) and walked away again. I felt really unwelcomed there so I left. I walked in in a super good mood, trying to celebrate the first day of the year. I left feeling small and insignificant. I ended up walking into Petition where I was warmly welcomed by a host and had a lovely meal. Costumer service is everything!!

    5 star view for sure at Ling Chim. Gets very busy here so definitely a venue where you need to book. Great atmosphere, staff are exceptionally friendly yet have a casual approach. Plenty of cocktails on the drinks menu although they are not your regular style cocktails. The food is just awesome. Very tasty, cooked to perfection and an all round Great place to go. Long Chim is definitely a place I would recommend place to go.

    Grilled beef was amazing. Expected there to be a Pad Thai, but nowhere to be seen. All staff were excellent, very attentive to our table and quite friendly. If anything, I would come back just for the customer service! However, I believe the menu needs to be tweaked a little in order to make it more accessible for the general population

  • 4/5 Ruth T. 11 months ago on Google
    Service was excellent, atmosphere was nice! I really liked how friendly and prompt the service was. We had some drinks at the bar and had a few dishes to share. I enjoyed the dishes but none of them really stood out to me. The other thing was that I felt the tables next to use were too close for comfort. Their roti and banana dessert was very good though! Their cocktails were a hit and miss, I enjoyed the tequila chilli one for example but their toasted rice one wasn't nice in my opinion. Overall I would give this place a 7.5/10 :)

  • 5/5 Nancy G. 3 years ago on Google
    In Perth's historic State Buildings on the corner of Barrack St. and St. Georges Terrace, this little gem has a delicious menu of street food, served in a restaurant style. Friendly, cheerful and professional staff help you make your way through the menu if you're not at home with Thai food, or take a gamble and try something new.

    We love coming here and will continue to dine and bring friends and family. It was our anniversary and the celebratory bubbles upon arrival was a lovely touch. Compliments to the Chef, we loved the Squid Ink stir fry and the wait staff, food and service was excellent - particularly given it was a Friday lunch time and packed house.

  • 5/5 Ben S. 3 years ago on Google
    Had a fantastic dinner here. Chicken wing entree were some of the best wings I've ever had. Pad Thai and Charred noodles were excellent, full of flavour with good serving sizes. Banana Roti was incredible, Pandang pudding was also great. Staff were attentive and friendly.

    The vibe and decor of Long Chim are cool without obviously trying to be and the staff and friendly and efficient. I would like them to leave slightly less time between checking in but they were very busy when we were there. The food is excellent but be warned that nearly everything has some level of spice and heat, so be prepared. We started with the pork skewers and vegetarian spring rolls and had a chicken green curry with jasmine rice and the duck fried rice for main. We could have probably gone another main but didn't leave hungry. The food can't be faulted and I could eat the pork skewers for ever. The flavours were well balanced and the meat was lovely and tender. The husband's highlight was the green chicken curry and he's pretty much an expert at green curry so you'll have to give his recommendation extra weight. The prices are slightly higher than we would spend on an average date night but if money is no object or its a special occassion it is well worth a visit.

  • 4/5 Angela 3 years ago on Google
    Really nice friendly staff. Absolutely loved the roast duck, the Pad Thai wasn’t the best but it was still good. The pandan pudding is definitely a must try! Overall it is a nice ‘treat yourself’ meal - and the atmosphere inside is nice and cosy.

    We had a delicious dinner here on Friday to celebrate our engagement. We arrived early and had a cocktail at the bar. The waitstaff were lovely and attentive, in particular our table waiter, Alesha. Also, having a dairy free diet, we were able to eat most dishes on the menu (including some desserts!).

    Terribly overpriced. We had the $65 banquet. Not value for money at all. The chicken curry would be lucky to have 3 tiny pieces of chicken in it. A lot of hype about this place. Won't be coming back....

    Nice location and friendly staff. Unfortunately the veggie/vegan options were very limited, and the dish I ordered tasted quite burnt.

    Outstanding staff, simply the best. The waitress went above and beyond to assist our group, the dining experience was and always is very very good. If you’re looking for real Thai food and real Thai hospitality go to Long Chim Perth. I highly recommended this place.

    Fresh spring rolls! Crispy prawn salad was beautiful and fresh with the mint an coriander. We had the roast duck and the deep fried fish as mains(keep in mind one of those mains could feed two people). It was all soo delicious! We will be back! The staff were so lovely and welcoming too!

    First things first… BOOK We visited for dinner on a Saturday night with a table of 6. The staff we had looking after us were incredibly polite and in particular Pamela. What a gem for the extra lengths she was going for our table. We ordered a large amount of food which all came out faster than we thought. That goes for entrees and not long after mains! I think you pay what you get for. While the portions are not massive you’re definitely paying for more than just the food and I think to anyone who complains about the price should just go to their local Thai shop instead. I think it’s a beautiful place and I hope that the rest of the staff that we didn’t get to interact with are at least half as awesome as Pamela! She made the night enjoyable for our table!

    "this is the most authentically Thai food I've had since I've been in Perth" speaks for itself. This coming from my Thai partner. Definitely will be here again!

    Over priced for what was on offer, they have a limited menu at the moment due to covid-19 supply issues and it unfortunately didn't live up to the hype for me - I would however try again when they get the full menu back as a few things on that looked good

    Long Chim in such a classy location, is the coolest Thai restaurant around. Full bodied authentic flavour, as much chilli as you need or not if you don't and a great drinks menu including tasty cocktails. The menu is uncluttered yet offers excellent choice. Love the staff who gave full attention to cuisine and advice rather than pretention yet maintained an air of sophistication and quality. Challenge you to get through a bowl of chicken larb - one for those with a taste for sizzling hot spicy adventure. I'll be back! Thanks to JJ for the special attention and knock out desert. A master of the cuisine and yes, actually from Thailand.

    Don't ever accept a double booking. We were told we had from 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm and then, AFTER we had started, were told we had to vacate the table by 7:45 pm. Very disappointing!

    Never fail for a late dinner. All the staff are very attentive and friendly. The foods are great. We had the lamb ribs, crunchy prawn and papaya salad.

    Yeah boi. Went hard. The duck and the lamb were 👌👌👌. All dishes were delicious. Duck was as good as I've ever had. Service was excellent too. Great vibe.

    We were treated to a meal here by a good friend of ours, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. First things first, there are cheaper Thai restaurants in Perth than Long Chim, but if the price is not an issue for you then this is definitely an option for a good night out. We had a bunch of dishes here including the salted fish fried rice, deep fried fish, Pad See Ew and the Gaeng Som (and probably others). The fried rice was very good, and the wok-hei flavour was extremely present in the Pa See Ew. The only dish which was a little different was the Gaeng Som, but it definitely was not bad. Didn't manage to get any pics because the food was devoured pretty quickly! Finished the meal off with a banana roti that was crispy and sweet, pretty much how it is when you buy it on the streets of Bangkok. Managed to get a picture of that, thankfully!

    Had a great time there, great food, great cocktails. Alicia was such a great server, knows her food and wine very well and gave us great service. Made our date night even better. Recommended great cocktails and desserts.

    Great Thai place that is better than the sum of its parts. Food is totally worth the calories and decently priced. The service is very friendly and the decor is great. You have different sections and an area that makes you fill like being outside while being inside. A great place to visit and have a great meal

    Felt I had to write a review. Ate there last night Tuesday 11/Jan/2022, tasting menu for 79$, 4 starters, 4 mains, one desert. Every dish was the best version of that dish I have ever eaten, truly unbelievable quality food. Well worth the money and we left absolutely stuffed to the brim (had to take half of the last two meals as take out and ate them for breakfast). Only exception for taste, surprisingly the dessert, which was tea ice cream which I wasn't a fan of , but I was so full by then that I was happy enough to leave it be. Service was excellent

    We arrived for dinner at 5:40 so we were informed about the happy hour drinks special which finished at 6 every night. Taking advantage of this to try some amazing cocktails. The tropical thunder really is fantastic!! The waitress was exceptional, very helpful when we couldn’t decide between a few things to try, and she did warn us about just how spicy one of our choices would be.... my friend said he was game.... it was very funny to watch him then eat the green chicken curry, which he said he enjoyed very much. We had the satay, and I must say, yes they are small but they are only $8 and extremely tasty! The fried rice with duck was also amazing! I can see this place quickly becoming a favourite for me. I am looking forward to returning and trying more things.... maybe also leaving room for the dessert!!! Hmmm.....

    Main dishes: ordered the fish curry, pork stir-fry, banana salad and jasmine rice to share. It came in good time all at once. The banana salad was quite hodgepodge with what seemed to be a mix of all kinds of vegetables, prawns and other bits covered in a desert-sweet dressing with clumps of coconut cream. Fortunately the sweetness managed to balance out the fish stew which was extremely salty. The pork stir-fry was possibly the best of the mains with a pleasing mix of textures and a spicy kick. The significant oiliness of the pork dish meant a generous serving of rice was required to balance it out however, so not something to order if you’re like one of us and not a fan of oil laden foods. Desert: —Thai tea ie cream: can’t fault this desert- absolutely delicious and plated beautifully. The subtle tea flavour of the ice cream melted perfectly into the sweet coconut cream base and the pistachio and konjac pieces added the textured depth that ice cream deserts often lack. —Taro pudding: arrived as two pieces of pudding surrounded by dried shallot chips. This one had great potential but didn’t quite deliver for us. A pet peeve we both have is the serving of a pudding or cake-based desert without ice cream or other such sauce to add moisture and contrast. The pudding itself was indeed warm, sweet and delightful but could only be optimally enjoyed by pairing it with the thai tea ice cream that we had also ordered. The addition of the shallots to the pudding was divisive with one of us feeling they overpowered the taste of the Taro and the other finding them a pleasing addition. All in all a bit of a flat dish that could be lifted greatly with the addition of some ice cream and potentially side-dishing of the shallots. Service: all the service staff we met were lovely and attentive. Everything came in good time and with a smile. Oddly though, after finishing desert, and being at our table for an hour and twenty minutes, the server told us our table was needed for the next booking in 5minutes. We were still finishing our drinks (two glasses of beer) but were asked to pay the bill and leave. We asked if we could sit up near the bar to finish the drinks but when we got there we were told to move on again as the bar area was also booked out. The server tried to find us somewhere in the restaurant or out the back of the venue that we could have stayed to finish but as everywhere had been reserved we ended up standing awkwardly by the entrance trying to down our drinks quickly. A very strange experience. Overall while we enjoyed the atmosphere of the venue very much and found the service staff to be lovely, the food itself didn’t do much to impress (bar the delicious thai tea ice cream) and the odd feeling of being shunted out of the venue towards the end of the meal left a bad taste. —6/10 spoons, wouldn’t go back but wouldn’t run away either.
