"Feb 2026 Went here for dinner. What can I say service is top notch. The waiters just arrive at your table and refill your water glass, no asking they just arrive. My wife had the chicken curry & rice. She enjoyed it. I had Vietnamese fried fish with vegetables. So yummy."

"When we arrived it was near empty, we ordered, one entree despite the managers reassurance tasted undercooked. Then we waited and waited, it took an hour and our mains came out 1 at a time. We ended up taking away as we were over it and running late. The food we got to eat was really nice."
