We reserved our table the day before and were given a place by the window, which was a great spot. We had starters of satay and spring rolls plus prawn crackers with chile sauce, which were very tasty. For main courses we had 2 types of noodles plus chicken & cashew nuts and spicy chicken, and we enjoyed them all. The service was excellent and the staff were very attentive. Definitely one of the best Thai meals we've had in Scotland.

Food, portions and service were excellent. The only down side was that our table was next to the door and every time the door was opened ( which was often) we experienced a cold draught. However this would not put us off returning.

Delicious food served by very friendly and efficient staff. Be aware the 'Mains' portions are large compared to many other Thai restaurants. Best to book a table so that you won't be disappointed. This was a great find in Inverness and we would certainly book again.

A fun and enjoyable Thai food experience. Highly recommend. The only disappointment was no curry dishes for vegetarians. But both carnivores and vegetarians in our group had delicious meals nonetheless. The service was lovely and decor very bright and welcoming.
