Customer Reviews
Absolutely amazing food. The menu is able to cater to myriad dietary requirements. Cocktail and wine list are great (with some interesting takes on established cocktails). We did the "Feed Me now* lunch... Which was a massive amount of food (for a great price!) Service was efficient and really friendly. We decided to sit outside (we didn't book, and it was a nice day). Outside table are not greatly comfortable, but is always fun to watch to passing croud. Overall, a very enjoyable experience!
Tried this with my other 3 friends. We decided to order 5 large dishes, 1 entree and 2 sides (2 bowls of rice). We felt full. The price works out similar to if we went with Feed me now for 4 (4 large dishes+4 small dishes+2 sides = $200). However, if we went with Feed me now option, I’m not sure if we would feel full because their entree portions are so small. The quantity is arranged with 2-3 pieces making most people paying more for additional pieces. Lobster taco - quite a misleading name, this is not a taco but a cracker. Fried chicken and pork leg curry were quite burnt especially the pork leg was so burnt that it was bitter. If you don’t order alcohol, it is $50/person so it’s not too expensive. But the quality should be improved, try not ti burn food.
The food was fantastic quality and great value for money, the Chicken Pad Thai was a particular highlight! Would definitely go back!
Food was absolutely delicious, so full of flavour and just the right quantities. We shared some dumplings and for main I had a fabulous red Thai chicken curry - yummy!! Service was great even though Ho Chi Mama was full. We booked an early 5pm dinner as we were going to a show. Obviously a choice a lot of people made as it was fully booked. We would definitely go again.
