What recent reviews say

Staff and kitchen deliver reliable Thai food with bold, fresh flavors. Tom yum soup, braised pork trotter, and tonkatsu pork burger earn consistent praise, and the space feels welcoming for families bringing pets. Service dips occasionally: one recent review flagged unfriendly behavior toward children, and the place fills quickly at lunch and dinner.

Reviewers note the menu has expanded to include cocktails and fusion dishes like basil rice. Most find prices fair for the portion sizes and ingredient quality. The location in Jaya One suits group dining and casual hangouts.
