Very delicious Thai curries. I went to the take-out restaurant. The portions are not very big but…read morethe prices are good for your budget. I had the chicken green curry. Perfect! Very spicy. Just the way I like it. I also had the fish red curry, very delicious also, not so spicy. Only downside is you have to bring cash, because you can't pay with a card. I hope they work on that because that would be more convenient. Will definitely go back for sure!

I happened upon this restaurant while taking a stroll to find something different. I have always…read morewanted to try Thai food, but simply never had. I often thought the food might be too spicy. As apart of my study abroad experience I have decided to try new things. I am so happy that I did. This is a fabulous restaurant, small yet chic. I would have to say this restaurant would be perfect for date night. The dining area is large with elegant lighting and decor. Floor to ceiling windows gives this restaurant a New York City vibe, so I would say it doubles as a nice spot for people watching. The food was fantastic. As this was my first time I decided to go small. I ordered Piek Kai (marinated chicken wings), and Tom Yum Kai (a Thai version of chicken soup). These items were flavorful with just the right amount of spice. Neither over cooked nor under cooked, the chicken was crispy and delicious. I also feel the prices were very reasonable. My order came to 12,20 euros. Not bad at all for a soup and an appetizer. I would have given this restaurant five stars had I not have had to pay for a to go bag. Evidently this is a running theme in the Netherlands; one is charged for a bag in a number of stores. I would advise bringing your own bag if taking food to go.

This is by far my favourite restaurant in Groningen. The…read morerestaurant has amazing, cozy interior, perfect for a romantic dinner or a nice conversation in comfortable surroundings. I was with family, and we ordered the Tagine for two, with different meats, plus a few side dishes. IT WAS AMAZING! So Rich in flavour and spices. The amount of dishes to choose from is insane, and they range from meaty to vegetarian, although I don't know about vegan. The service was really nice and tried to translate everything we didn't understand. I would definitely go again, although it is a bit pricey for a student-budget.

Over the course of two months, I think I came to this restaurant about five times. It might be my…read morefavorite in Groningen. There are three floors. When you make the reservation (and you really should make a reservation), you choose where you want to dine. The menu also differs, depending on where you sit. On the ground floor, that's the restaurant. I've dined there the most. I love trying their cocktails and their bitterballen aren't that bad. You almost can't go wrong with the dish that you choose; they also change and rotate so it might already be a different menu. I sat upstairs once. It was a small plates sharing menu with more cocktails to try! In other words, it was a more extensive cocktail menu. Every time I've been the food and the cocktails have been excellent. They also have beer in case you just want to do that. The decor is fun and quirky with an Indiana Jones/Jungle Cruise flavor. I would highly recommend getting a reservation if you're in Groningen.

The waiting staff seemed very friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. The menu is large but it gives a great range of choices and quality is not comprised by the vastness of what is on offer. I had one of the 'combinación' dishes as my main course and the cost vs quality and quantity is well justified - though the prices are generally somewhat expensive if you decide to have all three courses, a drink or two during and a coffee. Service could be quicker but given the demand it is not surprising but is not too long and it was an enjoyable wait - enough time to chill - not enough to starve. For many this is perfect (you aren't pushed out of the door). Will return for sure.
