I went shortly after 4 pm, when they open for dinner. There were no diners in the restaurant, but…read morethey were working on delivery orders. I ordered takeaway: Panang curry (mild) with pork, and curry puffs. The order was ready in less than 15 minutes and cost just over NZ$34 (US$20). BTW, if you want rice, that's extra. There's a ramp up to the restaurant. One of the toilets in the restaurant is accessible. The curry puffs were interesting. They were completely filled (no pockets of air) and were not greasy. I liked them but longed for a stronger curry flavor. So I dipped them in the Panang curry! It was even better. I do stuff like that, dip or mix other Thai food into whatever curry I got. Their version of Panang curry included green beans, carrots, and peas. There was a generous amount of pork. And while I requested mild, I'd classify the heat as mild-medium. My nose started running almost immediately. The curry had less of a peanut-y flavor as most others I've tried. I would have liked less heat, and a more intense flavor. But all in all, it was pretty good. Probably a good intro to Thai curry for those who haven't had it before.

Especially considering this is in the downtown area, I can see it getting packed for dinner. I loved the ambiance and decor inside the restaurant. I got the laksa after reading many reviews recommending this dish. It was on the spicy side, and it was good, but I wouldn't say it was outstanding. Next time I would try something else. I was intrigued by the Portuguese custard tarts, as that wasn't expected from a Malaysian restaurant, but I was already planning on getting dessert later, so I skipped them this time.

Still we ordered a few appetizers, like Chicken Satay, Prawn toast, Malaysian cabbage and we added Duck to that meal because it was suggested that the Chicken will come spicier. Anyway, the Chicken Satay is yummy with three skewers. However, the peanut sauce that came with this didn't taste like there's any peanut in the sauce as it was very pale in color. We, also, felt there's way too much sesame seeds and too little shrimp for the prawn toast with the Sriracha mayo.

Our server recommended 3 appetizers and 2 entrees to split between the 3 of us so we got: Poke nachos (4/5): really good ahi just wish there was more of it but flavorful Fijian ceviche (5/5): tasty, fish was fresh and we liked the coconut touch with green sauce Pork ribs (4/5): not too sweet and was pretty tender but not fall off the bone. We liked how it came with a finger wash. Lamb curry (3/5): I liked the veg in the curry and it was a good consistency but the lamb was gamey for me. Does not come with rice so we got one scoop to share Crab boil over (4/5): reminded us of a tom yum, a bit sour/zesty with coconut. It was different and we enjoyed it. Really friendly and attentive service! If you're craving Asian fusion it's a solid spot in QT

We were all convinced that we ordered too much food but it was just enough. We had to flag down a waiter for more drinks which I didn't like, but they were good mixed drinks. They brought us out the wrong desserts and we were a little confused at first but by the time we figured it out, the waiter was no where to be seen. Since they never checked in on us, we just ate the dessert that we didn't order. What brings this rating down is we spent plenty of money and they had the audacity to tell us to leave while we were talking and finishing up our meal so that they could sit customers waiting in the line. They only checked in on us when it was convenient for them. Good food but not so good service. Try it if you'd like but I wouldn't recommend.

But we were craving affordable thai, and this seemed like the spot! FOOD: They offer pretty affordable prices with a variety of curry, noodles, and soup dishes. We opted for a curry with rice and a noodle dish. I found the curry sauce to be really oily, but the flavor was good. The sauce/flavor of the noodles was good, but veggie pieces were huge and on the more al dente side. SERVICE: Service is counter only with some seating onsite that can fill up during mealtimes. They call your order when the food is ready. I like that they have an open kitchen so you can see your meal being made!

We also got a cider to share which came out to be $40. The food came out relatively fast and service was great. There was only 1 other diner in the restaurant which made us a bit nervous, but luckily the food was quite tasty. Vegetables with cashews: IMO a touch too salty, but I also have a very low salt tolerance. The tofu was seasoned fabulously and the vegetables cooked perfectly. It was a bit of a small portion and if I'm being nit picky I didn't like how the mushrooms were cut into halves. Too big of a mushroom bite if you ask me. Paneng curry: No complaints, it was hearty and warm - exactly what we needed on this cold spring day. We got it with tofu, but there was also pieces of squash in it. Our meal also came with two servings of rice which was nice. There is wifi, but it didn't work when we connected to it. Womp, womp. The views were nice though!
