Meal was great but not excellent, maybe the whole experience was stained by the slow service. It's great, the meals aren't rushed to you but this restaurant seems to take it too seriously. There is plenty of staff members attending the floor but the service is missing.

Food and service was fantastic! Loved the modern decor and romantic atmosphere. It's one the best restaurants I've been to and I definitely will be returning very soon! The duck salad and the viet pancakes were divine!

We've eaten here about 10 times and we love it. Food is great, service excellent and ambience is wonderful. Pricing is a little bit more exy then normal Nepalese, but certainly worth it! AND it's byo wine!

I rated the service as 'AWFUL', but not sure if you can call it that because it was more like 'BORDERLINE NON-EXISTENT'!! I'm not sure what was worse...The waiting a good 5 minutes before we were even greeted (and they weren't even busy), or waiting 15 minutes for a menu to be brought over, or the 40 minute wait between courses or having to ask 3 times for the dessert menu (and still never receiving one)!!!

Yes, the place IS beautifully decorated and when the food eventually DID arrive, was quite good (or were we just starving??), although the serves were on the small side (but they're reasonably priced, so it evens out), but still, I can't say I'll be going back in a hurry or recommending it to my friends...

Only go if you're ok about reaaallly slow and distant service...

At last a classy Asian restaurant in the Coogee area. Beautiful fit out and smooth service. Plus you can BYO. Food was as good as I've experienced anywhere in Sydney. Will become a regular!
