Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The warmth of the staff stands out, creating a friendly atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. The authentic flavor profiles of each dish truly resonate with diners; many note the freshness of ingredients and the generous portions that are hard to find in other establishments. The Pad Thai, in particular, earns rave reviews for its perfect balance of sweet and savory, while the Chef’s Specials showcase the restaurant’s creativity and dedication to authentic Thai cooking. The casual dining setting allows for relaxed conversations over flavorful meals, making it a comfortable choice for any occasion.
Most Disliked
Some diners mention potential wait times, especially during peak hours, as the restaurant can get busy with locals and regulars. Others express a desire for more outdoor seating, especially given Plymouth's favorable weather conditions. A few reviews highlight that the limited operating hours might make it challenging for those who seek late-night dining options. While the ability to bring your drink adds value, a corkage fee might deter some customers from fully enjoying their meal alongside a nice bottle of wine or a favorite beer. Overall, while the negatives are minor in comparison to the numerous positive attributes, they are worth noting for a comprehensive view.

The best Thai food in Plymouth! seriously impressed. generous portions reasonable prices and full of flavour, plenty of fresh ingredients used. It seems most of the others are cutting out ingredients in a bid to save money which then makes it lack the authentic flavour. Sue and Sow thank you for showing people how it's done properly! I will certainly be back regularly and will be recommending to others. Very vegan friendly and top customer service what more could you want :)

Popped in to grab a takeaway to eat next door at Vessel beer shop. Lovely lady took our order and said she would cook it and bring it over once she had finished cooking for the two men in the restaurant. She brought it over on plates with cutlery and it smelt so good other tables ordered too. It tasted phenomenal - so fresh and perfectly seasoned.

Our first time here since the new owners took over. We ate in. Very friendly welcome and great food and service. You can bring your own wine or beer and pay a small corkage charge. I would definitely recommend.

I ordered papaya salad and I shared Thai dishes with other people too. The green curry and Tom yum soups were delicious. The pad Thai was good, I could have asked and added more chilli crushed, that to lift the taste. Sue amd Sow are a great people to be around, they can cook! I asked them to do my papaya salad like an authentic Thai taste - very very Thai, it was delicious 😋 You won't be disappointed with the food here. Keep going dears! Well done 👏 ✔️ 👍
