    My expectations were definitely not met. The waitresses weren't very nice and we waited over 20 (!) minutes for a cheesecake and a coffee which is way too long especially that both of those things don't require to be actually cooked. One of the waitresses seemed almost offended that all we ordered was a cheesecake and the other one was very rude when I was paying at the counter. That visit would have been a big disappointment, had it not been for a cheesecake which was actually quite decent.

    Different place :) nice wall finish and decorations. Very good coffee and desert's. Menu is short but food is tasty. Lots of space and many tables are available. For talking its little bit too loud but its good atmosphere to have fun. Worthy of visiting and spending time here. 3.12.2023 update. visit after 4 years was still a very good experience. Name changed , menu changed but quality is high. It would be better if there were some cushions for sitting on those wooden bench 😉. Overall very good.

    The decoration and atmosphere are nice. Spacious and cosy with sittings. The menu gives a mix of feelings of the cuisine, kinda like a fusion of different cuisines put together. The taste is actually not bad and authentic. But not spectacular if you have tried a lot of Asian cuisines around the world for a long time. Still a nice spot for grabbing Asian cuisines when you are craving for it. Price is on more expensive side,at least 40+ for a dish.

    Kinda mixed feelings after a visit. I had high expectations and maybe that's why I don't feel entirely satisfied. Restaurant has nice climate, I liked the travel/airport decorations. They also had many spices, canned vegetables, bottles of various sauces on display which are difficult to buy in Poland. They use those ingredients in their dishes. Most menu items have either some twist, anecdote or a joke in description. The cuisine of Americas and Asia dominates but you can find also Middle Eastern and European. I took Pad Burger Thai. It disappointed me, I misread the menu and I thought there are three variants: omlette, beef or tofu. In really one could the last two, omelette was always included. I asked the waitress about it but we weren't able to come to a correct conclusion. Maybe the menu should written more clearly? My partner complained about unclear pricing as multiple options and it's not always obvious which price references which variant. I hope I will be more satisfied next time, as I want to give the restaurant another chance. Big plus for free water.

    I really like the atmosphere inside this restaurant which is really cozy. On one hand it's something between "house in ruins" like the name suggests, on the other it's filled with souvenirs from travels of restaurant founders. Best Pad Thai money can buy :)

    The atmosphere here takes you around the world and so does the food. Delicious doesn't cut it.

    One of the best restaurants in Poznan. Really friendly SouthEast Asian atmosphere, passionate owners and the food is incredibly delicious. The local is now pretty spacious so you shouldn't have problems with finding a seat if not in a big group

  • 5/5 Jakub K. 4 years ago on Google • 71 reviews
    Amazing, wonderful and delicious 😋 Great Thai food in the middle of Poznan! Honestly I never have had a better Thai food. You can also get an artisanal beer or lemonade. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Must visit while in Poznań!

    Delicious Beef Pad Thai & memorable interior. Good rhubarb cake. When I asked for a recommendation on which of the two cakes to get, the waiter didn’t give me any. Such a missed opportunity! :)

    I lived in Poznan for 5 years and this is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the city! Always amazing food and such a good atmosphere! ❤️

  • 1/5 Andre G. 7 months ago on Google
    We came and sat outside. Had to go inside to get a menu because 4 waitress stood and talked and laughed. Then we ordered and it took 1 hour before the food came. And the food was a lot of rice and vegetables, and 3 little bites of meat..... Dont go there....

    Great pho, delicious Vietnamese coffee, very sweet employees. Amazing ambience inside. It's so stylish and the music is always good.

    Sublime creative interpretation of Asian dishes and also very good Polish craft Pinta beers. Recommended as well the cheesecake, which has an interesting and long lasting flavour.

  • 5/5 Mikołaj K. 10 months ago on Google
    Delicious food. Excellent price/quality ratio. Excellent manners and knowledge of the menu by the waiter. Definitely recommend!

    Very authentic place. We have eaten the best asian dishes on our travels and we can tell you that they make exactly the same dishes, if not better.. service is great and a very original atmosphere .

  • 3/5 Davide G. 4 years ago on Google
    Just moved to a new district in a much bigger space, is very well decorated and loaded of passion also from the staff (the owners it seems are mostly traveling). The dishes are tasty and well cared, but what is disappointing to me is that the menu, made of just 5 dishes and printed on postcards, is always the same from at least 2 and a half years when I first met this place, so after having tried all the dishes twice you don't find a reason to come back... there are off-menu dishes that often in the evening are already finished, but anyways they aren't written anywhere, you have to ask to waiters, so you cannot check price or ingredients (it happened to me to have a very spicy dish that I really couldn't eat). New menu dishes and written daily dishes could make a better experience for me.

  • 5/5 Dinis C. 1 year ago on Google
    + Unique interior which gives that backpacking in Asia vibe, + delicious flavours close to the authentic food (the dinner - tom kha and pad thai - exceeded my expectations), + Moroccan tea proved to be as tasty as the one I had in Marrakesh. - Toilet paper instead of napkins was really off-putting, - much fewer vegan/vegeterian dishes than those containing meat.

  • 5/5 Keegan R. 4 years ago on Google
    A beautiful interior and a friendly environment. Try the cheesecake. And don’t forget to ask if they have mango cheesecake available!

  • 5/5 Natalia S. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious, cosy, hygge, cool!!!!

  • 5/5 Gabriela B. 4 years ago on Google
    Such a lovely place. I chose it based on the fact that it was the closet at to my hotel however I couldn’t do better! Funky decor, lovely atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff. The food was delicious! The fries in my burger were not sad at all.

    Fanstastic place to have a bite or a meal in Poznan! I visited this café with my friend and both of our cheesecakes (tahini and mango) were amazing. The same with drinks - I had a coffee that didn't need any sugar. Absolutely I recommend going there, you won't be disappointed.
