The little stools are really uncomfortable, but that would be a tac-tic to get the place to turn over, it's tiny. The food is always very good and the service is neat and tidy. I'm so happy I still get to enjoy RQ food but at a price much easier on the pocket. I mostly get take away now ;)

The food is ok but the staff is really unhelpful. I asked him if I could get some food without a particular ingredient (they did it for me several times when he's not here) but he refused to do it telling me that is it already made and better get something else. I don't think I will go back

This is a small but cute restaurant with friendly service. I found that the food isn't that great (or fresh) but it's value for money. Plus, there's no corkage charge.

Excellent value food at a great price. The stools aren't the most comfortable but I think it's the good and cheap food they are trying to push. The fan/ light sends me a little bananas so don't look up if you have epilepsy. A favourite.

This place is amazing. People paid 2 or 3 times the price for similar food at RQ (Chef Nyut's former establishment). The RQ menu has pared back here to the basics and the food is still excellent at just a bit over $10 a plate. I only gave the place a 6 for service but that is not a criticism but just acknowledging that you are not paying for fine dining attention, the people here are great, warm and welcoming, same applies with the ambience score. Go, love it and get out again with change in your pocket.

Love this place, my husband and I eat here all of the time, nice quick and easy. Fresh and very tasty. Would recommend the rice paper rolls or any of the noodle dishes.

Had lunch here yesterday. It was tasty, well constructed, spicy, tender and just delicious. The portions at lunch did tend towards small however I thought it was fine for a mid day meal and the value for money is exception. A small diner but we had no problems getting seated. Definitely recommend this and will re-visit.

Blink and you'll miss this place. As previous reviewers mentioned, it is BYO and is right next door to a bottle-o (as pointed out by the very helpful waiter). In fact lets talk about the service - great customer relation skills. I had requested a particular dish on the menu that sounded very similar to Massaman Beef (which did not appear on the menu) when to my suprise the waiter said I could have some Massaman if I wanted to - fabulous curry .. strong flavour and perfect balance of beef and potato.
