    Mid-week dinner and was disappointed. The service was good and the staff friendly but the food was average and there was little to no atmosphere. Would recommend for a drink as the cocktails were good, but nothing special food-wise.

    i bought this meal on a Groupon and was local. Waitress very friendly & helpful; starters pretty average: overcooked small spring rolls, luke warm Thai fish cakes and prawn crackers charged for. main course fine as were the dessets. it is a bar restaurant with most of area given up to 2 parties. good value due to Groupon but i would not go again as better chinese Thai restaurants in area, left a £10 tip as waitress was great.

    nice venue with night atmosphere and modern decor. There are some nice dining rooms but i guess these get booked up. The dj was good on the night but the crowd was low on the saturday i went. Maybe i am used to packed out bars etc. Overall it was good, the food was tasty and good sized portions.
