Thei was the first place we ate when we emmigrated in 2005, and we have been returning farily regulary since. We find the atmosphere pleasant and inviting and the food always delicious. The menu is wide with enough choice to suit everybody. The meal names are entertaining (you will need to check it out for yourself to see what I... More

Typical overblown "Thai" decor, the food came quickly. It's really just sauce from a bottle and a bit of meat plonked in, nothing special

This restaurant was recommended to me by a friend but was extremely disappointing. The food was hardly Thai as everything in the banquet meal was deep fried except the curry, which was okay. I can't remember enjoying any of the food at all. The service was also disappointing, with no explanation of what we had ordered as each dish arrived.... More
