| - Came here for dinner on a Thursday evening (6pm).
Atmosphere/decor, I find the decor a bit odd, almost hodge podge. It may be due to how little I know about what Thailand looks like, but the decorations just seem a bit random and odd to me. Exposed brick, random pennants in the ceiling, Bob Marley playing in the background. The seating is a bit tight, so, do expect to hear your neighbours unless you are in the high tables off to the side.
Food, ordered the grabong (I thought they were okay, but our tastes mostly of batter, I did like the sauce which was sweet and a little bit spicy), pad thai (I can't really comment on this, we ordered medium spicy and it was a bit more spicy than expected, tastes like pad thai that I'd had at many other thai restaurants, nothing amazing), and the green curry (decoration is interesting, although because it is in a coconut, it doesn't hold that much so they bring out more curry in a small bowl, seems a bit odd, I thought the curry was good though). Also got a thai beer and a thai ice tea which I thought was interesting (this is my second time having one and it tastes sweet with a lingering bitterness at the end) but do note that there is a LOT of ice in the cup, so even though it is big, you don't actually get that much.
Service, they seemed pretty attentive to us, no issues with them coming timely to take our order, ask for our opinion on the food and refill drinks as well as taking away our dishes when finished.
Cost, for two drinks, two mains, and one appetizer, it cost us roughly $60 which I think is a bit much for thai food, but when I compare it to nearby offerings, it is within range.
I don't see myself coming back here, although I may not understand and appreciate thai food as much as others do.
