Went here a few weeks ago, first time. We ordered a number of dishes, the entrees were all ok, although nothing to rave about.

The mains were a complete rip off, however. The prawn dish contained small prawns on top of what looked like half a cabbage (boiled). Hardly any sauce, definitely lacking in flavour. The fried noodle dish was average, it's hard to go wrong with this staple Thai dish. However, the whole steamed fish was absolutely awful, it was grey, and completely lacking in any flavour.

We complained to the waitress, who said that the fish had been bought fresh a week ago! Although we complained about the dish to the manager, the best they could do was knock $10 off the bill. Appalling food and service, won't be back. Ever.

Very authentic Thai! This place gets the thumbs up from my Thai wife which is a rare thing. She spoke to the chef and he has trained from a young age in Thai cuisine. It shows too as the presentation and quality of ingredients surpass that of most other restaurants we've tried. I really liked the chili lime pork and pad kee mao ("fried drunken poo" is apparently the translation but It's actually like a spicy and lemony pad see ew).

Friendliest service in Sydney. I eat out all the time and these guys go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The food is fantastic too, definitely the best thai in the area. Check it out and you'll become a regular like I am.

We have ordered take away as well as dined in at this restaurant. The takeaway menu does not have all the dishes of the dine in and the food was probably not as good as the dine in either. The dine in menu seems to have dishes that you won't see at your standard Thai restaurants.

We tried the Miangkum Tuna (tuna, crushed peanuts and spices on a betel leaf). The menu describes it as a flavour explosion and it certainly lived up to its name. One of their best dishes! The mains were good and tasted fresh. It looked like a lots of locals/regulars were dining at the restaurant which is always a good sign. Service is attentive and friendly. Will be back to try some of the other dishes on the menu!

Beautiful food and service. Chaimee Duo and Massaman Lamb Shanks were superb. The kids also loved it.

Very authentic Thai restaurant with a good variety of dishes and the food delivered was very tasty. Service was good and the restaurant was neat and clean, with the tables arranged as though someone cared. I couldn't understand why there were only a few in the restaurant while the adjoining eateries were all full as Chaimee would have to serve some of the best Thai food I have tasted.

We ordered from this restaurant about 6 weeks ago and all the dishes were good. Last night, we had some interstate guests. After a long day out, we decided to have our food home delivered from this restaurant again. I ordered 6 different dishes, plus steamed rice.

The food was very disappointing. There was hardly any meat in meat dishes, or seafood in seafood dishes. In addition, all the dishes were very bland, apart from Panang beef and some dishes were luke warm, not hot. I was so embarrassed in front of my guests. I will never ever order from this restaurant again and anybody reading this should think twice before going to this place.

What a fabulous restaurant. You wouldn't think it was anything special just by walking past it though. Wonderful food, wonderful staff, wonderful service. Give it a go.

Good food. The dishes always come with a good variety of vegetables which I really like. Having been here a few times now, we've noticed that the dishes that we definitely prefer are the 'tried and true' thai dishes - the pad thai, pad see ew, stir fry satay and massamun etc. Some of the lesser known dishes aren't as good. I would particularly recommend the massaman beef - it's the best I've had in Sydney.
