Coffee is good, there's an extensive wine list, Asian beers and fruit juices. Very nice.

Good, clean, well-lighted, and some seriously good, authentic Thai food done with twist. I know…read moremany people use the tom yum soup as a "taste test". I did the same. When the soup came out, it was paler than most that I've tried, which made me skeptical at first. But it turned out to be very good, very spicey and had a taste that was very "clean." I have also tried Pla Manow which is a steamed fish in lemon sauce topped with fresh garlic, chili, lime and coriander -- what can I say? it was heavenly. The wish did not taste "overly fishy" (the lemon and spices helped I am sure) and the fish belly was fatty and delicious, as good fish bellies are supposed to go. :) On another day, I tried the Poeh Tak Talay (which is a seafood soup in lemongrass -- basically the tom yum but with an assortment of seafood like mussels, shrimp, squid). Verdict: to-die-for. The seafood are "just right" (not rubbery for the squid for instance). Good point also: The refills of hot tea, as Asian restaurants must do. One frustration I have, having come from America, is how in the UK restaurants would charge "per pot" of tea. But in Asia, tea is drunk as water. It should be complimentary in fact, and it should be refillable. I hope some day the business models of restaurants in the UK change particularly in the way they charge drinks. All, In all, highly recommended. Not overly expensive. But it IS very good food. Shouldn't be this quiet or underrated. p.s., I know my Asian food.

Thankfully, in this case, the genuine Thai feel was more than environmental. The food was so subtle of flavour yet unpretentiously presented while the choice of menu was very capacious. The set menus were both economical, contrasting and filling. The service was professional and prompt, and judging by the general busyness, it seems this is a popular place - well, I guess it is extremely central. If you're a lover of Thai, you won't be dissapointed.

On arrival it was manic but agreed to wait for 15 min on the side for a table. Overseeing the bar I caught glimpses of waterdowned cocktails being prepped and sent out cementing my decision not to try one. After 15min we were led down a busy stretch of faux tucs tucs and a seated against a a wall crowded with loot stuck to the wall. The menu had plenty to offer from dim sum, Thai fishcakes lots of variants of sea bass and all Thai dishes you could think of catering from meat eaters to vegans. I adore bubble tea so was madly curious to try a alcohol variant which was a boozy salted caramel. My other half ordered a havana rum. My partner received whisky rather than rum and mine was full of so much tapioca it spoiled it. For food my partner had the har kau prawn dumplings and pineapple rice with prawns. Myself pork sesame skewers along with prawn red curry. We both enjoyed the starters lovely texture and flavours besides the unhappy lettuce. Unfortunately the mains were weak. We had eaten pineapple rice in our weeks and Thailand and wanted to experience that same tastiness. It was just plain rice , under cooked veg and big prawns on the side.. not rice laced with pineapple etc.. my red Thai curry was more of a soup with basic flavour with also undercooked veg. I like to have some bite but not like this. The prawns were cooked nicely . Not once did anyone ask about our wellfare or food quality. Drone like they cleaned tables with lighting speed and took food orders churning the fast tables over. Overall very disappointed with despite the service charge they whacked on not very attentive and poor food quality.

Really looking forward to this authentic thai street food experience, passed by the day before…read moreafter we had already eaten and on our way back to our hotel, seeing all the steaming dishes from the window, decided for our last night in Nottingham, we needed to come here. It was also located right round the corner to our hotel! On walking in, feels like you are entering into a little bit of Thailand. The welcome was friendly, with cute little Thai children, playing near the front, waving and smiling at you! We were seated at a table near the front of the restaurant but at the back, they had seating in tuk tuks, which seems to be for larger parties, or for four diners. I also noticed a railway track going through the restaurant. The restaurant filled up pretty quickly after we arrived after 6pm. Service seems to be hit and miss though. Took some time before our orders were taken, then when our food arrived it was lukewarm, not, as I noticed, steaming hot, like other diners were. It is probable that our dishes were prepared, but they had forgotten to bring it to our table, as our drinks took some time to arrive after reminding them twice, as they had not even arrived after the food arrived. The starter of Spicy Payaya Salad came at the same time as the mains. This was actually very spicy despite being told it was mild. I only like a hint of spice so was too much for me, but my partner like extra spicy, so great for him. Quality wise, I would not say the food was the best I had, it was quite average, and since my Prawn Pad See Aew was cold after a few mouthfuls, it felt like eating a cold soggy mess, their was no crunch in the vegetables and the noodles were more like short pieces of pasta, and not much prawns to speak of. My partner's Pad Gra Tium Prik Thai with marinated beef, was ok too, nothing to shout about either, again this was also cold after a few mouthfuls, as I watch other diners' enjoying their food, with constant steam swirling from it. Since there were no waiters in sight for quite a long length of time, we decided to eat it anyway. If food is supposed to be served cold, like salad, then you would expect it to be cold but not if food should be served hot, so this is disappointing. For dessert, we ordered the Khow Niew Ma Muang, sweet sticky rice and mango, topped with tapioca red bean paste, and sprinkled with seasame. Now, this was a delight, the sticky rice was so unexpectedly hot, it burnt the tongue! The mangoes was the right kind of ripe. Lovely. Also, what they did well is the coconut water. This is really the real thing, with bits of coconut and so satisfying and refreshing, that we ordered it twice! We were just unlucky with the service of our mains, did not come hot and fresh, or quickly, but would try them again on our next visit to Nottingham.

I ordered the chicken satay for starters while my friends ordered the stewed spare ribs in barbecue sauce, the tempura prawns with sweet chili dip, and the chicken chicken wings with sweet chili sauce, all nicely displayed on the plate and all did taste very delicious, the meat succulent and tender. For mains, I ordered my favourite Thai dish, Pad Thai with giant freshwater prawns. It was extremely tasty, the Thai noodle recipe was apparently passed down by the chef's grandmother. It was served with two giant, whole prawns with shells on, cut in half but held together at the tails. Very meaty. The noodles were the right texture, moist, good flavours, not hard or al dente. My partner's dish of Thai and Hainanese style chicken, with rice and broth was also a tasty dish. Lovely presentation of my friend's mains of spaghetti with king prawns, mixed with fresh Tom Yum sauce. My other friend enjoyed her Thai green curry with rice and chicken which she said had a kick in it that went on for quite a few kicks! A very filling meal which we thoroughly enjoyed. We washed it down with a bottle of Thai Premium Rose, which was an excellent accompaniment, fresh and not too sweet. The service was friendly and swift. Would definitely return if in the area.
