We live in Thailand many years and enjoy good Thai food, but this is NOT the place to go. Masaman Curry has nothing to do with Masaman Curry. Already colour totally different beside the taste. Papaya salad. Same thing. Dark red completely different taste and...colour as it should have. We ask for spicy and they use a kind of Thai fermeted Chili sauce to make it spice instead of fresh chili which kills all the taste. Phad Thai taste like 2 days old. Sorry but every other place will be better. Strongly recommend the Thai seafood place 100 meter further. You see already that many Thais also go there but in Dar only Farangs. Avoid that placeMore

We visited this restaurant many time over the years and finally have been able to return to the new venue in 2023 after missing years due to COVID. Salina is a great chef and the food is exceptional, together with Rocky they look after their...guests with a smile and good service. Like everyone the last few years have been very hard but they are fighting back and the food is just as good as we remember back in 2019. Even though we now have to travel to the new venue by taxi we have already eaten 4 times in the last couple of weeks and that alone tells you something important. Booked again for 2 more visits next week. We highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.More

Went here twice in our week long stay in Hua Hin. The food was great as was the chef. Service was a bit slow but we were on holiday so enjoyed a few extra beers. I think people need to relax.Best Thai food we had...on holiday.More

In previous trips to Hua Hin I was a huge fan of this restaurant. But three years later success has gone to their heads - service is so slow it is embarrassing and the head waiter has gone from being affable to downright rude. Our...crispy fried prawns were very good but mains and dessert were terrible, I hate saying this but is the sad truth. Would give it a miss, we won’t be going back that is for sure.More

I’m not someone who is writing reviews but I had to here. Guys stay away if you have allergies We ordered few dishes and one of us ordered seafood another chicken. It was so gross to find legs from prawn and some other shells from...my dish in the chicken dish of my friend It was ridiculous. We couldn’t finish it so just took the rest for the dog. I’m just thinking if my friend would have seashell allergies we would end up in the hospital instead of enjoying the day. That’s freaking dangerous. There are seriously much more better places around for example right across the street with a nice bar! Also Their stuff is rude whoever this guys is. He is definitely doesn’t know how to work in this industry. Cocky attitude is not for the hospitality unfortunately. Good reviews must be people writing who was either lucky with food or not very knowledgeable with what they eat and not too fussy. When you want to have a quality things for the price you pay, you must do your research better. I wouldn’t recommend this place. The problem is the location is convenient and we also stopped cos we been super hungry. Avoiding this place at all cost.More

Who could ever think this place was good? Rude manager, rude service, overly salted mediocre food, and not cheap. I would never go there again, and regret going there at all.

What superb food! The signature prawn curry, soft shell crab, chicken satay and prawn cakes were superb. The restaurant staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Absolute find!

We had a lovely meal in this restaurant, on Boxing day, the food was cooked fresh and it was very tasty, However when we were ordering, my husband and myself chose the same strength for spicy, and his Peneng curry was much milder than my...massamam, so maybe it was because of the coconut milk making it less spicy, Just be careful how spicy you go. Service was great, Rocky was running about all night keeping all his customers happy. Would go back in we ever came here again. Thank youMore

These good reviews must surely be about a different restaurant. This is a trap. We became hostages to the extremely slow and rude service. By the time we noticed our wait is exceeding 90 minutes (for simple curries), it was too late to go anywhere...else. We would have just left and gone, otherwise. Food was extremely average and the price is more than some other nearby. The service is awful and the owner is really rude. the first night he just sent us away, saying there were too many people. Compared to many restaurants around, there weren't. the second night he let us stay. we ordered at 7.30 and got our food 9.15 p.m.! When we told him, he didn't even apologise. It's absolutely pathetic. Everyone was bored and walking around waiting for their food. The owner uses his son to serve food, a little boy that jumps around with people's meals on plates. This is so unprofessional. Nobody wears a mask and a filthy cloth cleaned our table when we arrived. Sorry but there are many better places around. Don't waste your evening and just drive or walk passed this.More

This was by far our worst experience in Hua Hin. Really mediocre food that takes hours, literally, to arrive. The host only seems friendly but in fact is very rude. He didn't even apologise. There are many many better restaurants within walking distance. Avoid this...tourist trap.More

A second time we ate very well. Eat Thai authentically. Some can determine the sharpness themselves. Super quality, it cooks without flavor enhancers. The best recommendation in Hua Hin
