Thank you so much. The food at this restaurant was beautiful. The vegetables were cooked so perfectly the flavours were amazing. Iโve been to Thailand and I thought this was incredible food. They even stayed open a little bit later for us as well. Highly recommend this restaurant if youโre coming to Cairns.
It tasted absolutely terrible, and this is nothing like authentic Korean-style jjamppong at all. It was just red soup with no real flavour โ completely bland and tasteless. It was so bad that I couldnโt even eat it. There were only two prawns, a few pieces of squid, and one mussel, yet they charge $24 for a โseafoodโ dish. Even for a tourist area, this is unacceptable. Itโs very disappointing โ if the food had at least tasted good, it might have been worth it, but instead I feel like I completely wasted my time coming here. The coconut chicken was hard and flavourless, and the chicken itself did not look fresh at all. There was no coconut taste or aroma whatsoever. The tonkatsu was just a very ordinary, pre-made cutlet. When I asked the staff, they said that the Korean chef only works in the evening. Thatโs probably why todayโs food โ especially the jjamppong โ tasted particularly bad. When the staff clean the tables, they spray the cleaning chemical, and it gets all over the chopsticks and cutlery on the table. All the staff were kind and friendly, but I was extremely disappointed with the food, and it made me never want to come back again.
Beautiful Thai meal Ordered sweet and sour - loved it Peanut Satay - loved it Spring rolls - loved it. Recommended place to eat.
I know it is hot outside, but why make it always a freezer cold inside?! Three ventilators blowing at the maximum. It really takes away my fun of entering this restaurant! Turn it down a notch. Also safes electricity! Also Airco plus three big fans. Too cold! Plants and paper in the restaurant were moving. Left with a headache. There were only two other people plus me. I put in the order and the drink did not come. Had to remind her about the drink. The lady was truly lovely but I do not want to know how things go when there is more people in the restaurant? I made an online reservation and never got confirmation or any answer?! The food was okay. Thumbs up for the big portion of pik nam plaa. Springrolls as suspected Main course good taste, but very small portion. And mushrooms do not belong in this dishโฆ I would love to come back, but it is impossible for me to sit inside. The cook/owner finally turned one fan down but the other ones were still at max speed. I will sit outside or find another Thai restaurant. Too badโฆ
Absolutely delicious. Wonderful service. Friendly and welcoming staff. We ordered the crab curry and coconut chicken and would highly recommend both. They gave us chili on the side as well.
