Reviews Summary

"Nice little Thai restaurant on Marine Pde. Was a busy Saturday night post marathon day and while service was pretty good, would have been great with maybe one more waitress helping. Food was delicious and serving sizes are very generous. Worth a look if you're in Napier and craving good quality Thai."

"Very friendly staff, sea-view seats and good decorations. Big portion.
Food is mediocre - pad Thai is bit oily, curry is watery (seems the water was not totally shake off after blanching and diluted the sauce?)"

"Nice cozy restaurant on Marine Parade, in front of the beach. It has always been our go-to place in Napier. Go for their Chicken Satay; you will lick the last bit of the peanut sauce that comes with it. 😉
I also went for the Pad Khing Crispy Pork, which was simply amazing, with very generous portions of meat in it (more than almost any fancy Thai eateries in the country I must say). The Roti Bread was pretty decent as well, with more peanut sauce dip with it. And definitely try the Tom Yum soup with king prawns; it's just bloody good !!!!
Everytime we have visited the place, we have found the restaurant to be decent busy. So, book a spot before you go - that would be recommended.
The portions are reasonably big, so the price is justified.
I would rate this place as probably one of the best and affordable Thai eateries across the country."
