Popped in for a quick meal. The staff are very friendly. The food was good, fresh seafood and really well presented. A nice little place in the heart of the Randwick shopping precinct.

We attended for a quick work lunch. A group of 6. Nice location. Friendly greeting. The food was ok. I had a squid ink pasta with vongoli. The vongali was gritty. The pasta was squid ink coloured, no squid ink added to the pasta (fair enough although I thought this would have been added), and there was garlic added which I love, but it was that shop bought garlic, chopped in that bottle from Coles.

It was not very nice. It does taste different. Why not use fresh garlic? The other diners thought the gnocchi was too buttery although the pasta looked good. This place needs a few twists in the kitchen then I believe the lunch food at least could be much better.

We returned here to eat after tossing up with another Indian in the area. We had been here on a few prior occasions and the food was ok, reasonable value. After ordering the usual chicken tikka for our daughter, we orderd some curries. I had the goat curry. It was inedible. It was all gristle. As I paid the bill I said the goat curry was inedible. I was informed the chef would be told. It was really a bit disappointing. Definitely will not be going back.

I have been to this restaurant on several occasions but the last visit was quite a few years ago. The ambience and service is apt for the three hats. The food was disappointing. My lobster tail starter was tough/raw and the lamb main was ok. The waiter produced a large truffle which he grated onto our various courses which was interesting but even this expensive fungus did not lift the food although it did to the bill.

My last memory of this place years ago did not resemble this latest incarnation. Perhaps, I have turned into a cranky tight wad, but then again my three guests all had the same comment at the end of the night. Disappointing!

On a weeks holiday in Huski, decided to visit this Thai Rest. The best thing about the restaurant is the staff. Very friendly and efficient. The food was uninspired. If you want pretty ordinary thai, not overpriced, well this is your place. The food lacked imagination. Shop purchased curry puffs, calamari rings and the Thai curries were bland. I think the kitchen needs a holiday, to Thailand to get reinvigorated!
