| - Upscale and hip decor, black walls with black velvet roses patterns and big sunken lounge armchairs, nice enough to bring dates here. food is rather hit and miss, thai spring rolls has very bland taste, green curry sauce is very watered down and flavourless,and did not come with the garlic bread wedges as depicted in the menu. beef with peanut sauce is surprisingly really good, and so is the coconut shrimp. Tempura came with a relatively bland sauce that doesn't taste as good as other places. Curry pad Thai was alright, red curry was better then the green curry with thicker and more flavourful sauce. Basil beef was a little on the salty side, almost like they were trying to hard to deliver so opted to drench the few slivers of beef in a mediocre sauce.Spicy salmon roll wasn't as bad as expected as per reading other reviewer's comments, however it wasn't spectacular, just ok, slightly soggy actually, which Is really saying something about the maki since spicy salmon is pretty basic and hard to mess up. Curry pumpkin soup was way too sweet to swallow, mushroom soup was ok, the 2 slices of duck bacon in the duck salad salad was good.
Basically we were impressed with the decor, which for a short while colored our first few bites with rosey optimism. But as the meal wore on, and the flushes of first impressions faded, we became steadily and increasingly let down dish after dish. So we rate the restauran Decor 4/5, food 2/5, probably won't come back again as there are better options out there at this price level
