I came here the other day with my husband for brunch. He ordered the bacon and eggs and I had the museli with yoghurt and fruit. We also both had flat whites.

First of all the cafe is pretty hip and the waitresses all looked fantastic. The place felt welcoming and funky, a really great vibe.

Service was quick and friendly, and the food came out quickly considering the place was full.

My husband said his meal was very nice and he was full at the end (he has a big appetite). My museli was delicous with dried dates and figs, plus some very nice fresh strawberries, pears and oranges and good quality creamy yoghurt.Oh and the coffee was smooth and creamy and very yummy indeed!

We were very pleased with the whole experience and will be back.

I ate here with my hubby the other night. He ordered a small pizza and a greek salad while I had a lamb main from the specials board. We swapped halfway through as is our tradition so we both had a bit of everything. My meal was absolutely fantastic with the lamb cooked as I asked and lovely and tender, beautiful sauces and the vegies were just right (Hubby agreed with me). The pizza was a bit so-so (I personally am not a fan of the topping my Husband chose, however, he thought it was a bit average too).

There wasn't anything in particular that was wrong with the pizza: it was cooked well, the topping to base ratio was good, etc, its just that it didn't really have any wow factor. Fortunately, my meal was big enough to serve two by itself. Additionally the salad was fresh and dressed well. We also ordered 2 flat whites which were very nice (so nice that hubby ordered a second).

The service was great, attentive but not overbearing, and the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. The meals arrived within a reasonable amount of time and to top it all off the bill was reasonable. So in summary, it was a good meal but the pizza was average (not bad... just average). Having said that, we would be happy to go again.

My partner took me here the other night on the way home from a function and I was quite impressed! the kitchen is laid out in front of you and is spotless. It's good fun to watch them cook your meal while you wait. Service was very friendly and the kitchen staff all seemed happy making it a pleasant place for a quick eat. The restaurant is clean and neat but nothing to write home about. A step or two up from a take away store but comfy and friendly enough to make it a nice meal.

The food is well priced for a delicious meal. We had the massaman curry, the pad mee (I think that's what it was called) and salt and pepper squid. All were very tasty and the containers were packed full. One of, if not the nicest Thai I've had in the local area (penrith-blacktown) however the spice factor was low... I think they dampened it down for western tastes. Mild and tasty, great for a quick eat.

We went here the other week and won't return. We had take away but the restaurant was nicely decorated from what we saw and seemed like a pleasant place to eat. The service was friendly enough.

The food was mediocre, certainly not the best Thai in Western Sydney. The massaman curry was watery and whatever it was my partner ordered (it was a cashew stir fry dish) tasted like they added too much sweet chilli sauce from Woolies. The meals weren't super expensive but they weren't super cheap either. The biggest let down was that for the price we paid you would expect for the containers to be more than half full (which they weren't... even the boiled rice!!!).

Overall a very mediocre experience.
