For this calibre of restaurant I would have thought they would use fresh hand cut chips not frozen, it puts the quality of the dish down. Everything else was really good. We will return.

We were a group of 7 having dinner together before a Show that night. Service was fast. We all had a variety of different dishes ie Prawn Laksa, Singapore Noodles, Prawn Thai Basil, Chicken skewers. Everyone enjoyed their meals and said they were delicious. Thanks again for an excellent night out.
