“ Good service, nice casual food and location, always busy, good quality, affordable Thai food. Curries and stir fry’s are recommended, plus the specials are always worth trying. Food definitely outshines the fitout, although the fitout makes this only a place local knowledge will take you ”
“ It would be easy to walk past this unassuming hole in the wall. There isn’t much room and the decor isn’t fantastic. While walking past you might wonder why it’s so packed. The reason is, the food is amazing here. The service is variable. I’ve been at times when the service is fantastic and attentive but I’ve also been when it was terrible. The reason to come here is for the food. Some of the best Thai food in Sydney. It’s surrounded by flashy pubs and restaurants but this little hallway is a real gem. Don’t walk past! Pop into the bottle’o next door. Grab a bottle and sit down and enjoy. ”
