Signal score

Strong, consistent praise across multiple sources.

Loud, spicy, and messy Thai BBQ that functions best as a high-energy drinking den for groups who don't mind shouting over the music.

Ordering Strategy

This is drinking food designed for sharing. Order a round of wings immediately, plenty of sticky rice to manage the heat, and share large curries or whole fish family-style.

What to order

Safe first

Chilli Fish Sauce Wings

The restaurant's 'undisputed signature' featuring a 'crackly, caramelised exterior' and 'steaming, succulent, salty flesh' pungent with garlic and fish sauce.

Hungry

Lamb Ribs

Regarded as the 'ultimate pisshead food,' these 'vast slabs of meat' are served 'fresh from the sparking wood-fired barbecue' and deliver a 'mighty mallet of heat and fat, spice and salt and smoke.'

Wildcard

Sticky Rice

Delivered in 'little plastic bags,' this dish is described as 'all cloy and bite' and the 'perfect' tool for 'sponging up sticky juices' from the grilled meats.

What to skip

Skip
Som TamCritiqued as 'indifferent,' with reviewers noting the papaya needs to be 'more finely shredded and muddled properly' to correctly marry the sour-sweet-fiery flavours.

Good to know

The spice levels are uncompromisingly high. It is very loud and dark, making it better for a rowdy start to a night out than a quiet conversation.
