"Ate here as it had the best rating.We had the special menu for €12 and had spring roll,Red Thai & Crispy chilli chicken and 2 small beers. At this price I was happy with everything, including portion size. Too often you get a massive bowl of rice that's wasted. Overall,well worth the visit."

Portions are big, delicious and all we can say about this restaurant is: Give it a try, you’ll love it! Tip: if you love hot and spicy soup, order the Thai chicken soup, you’ll love it!"

"I hardly write reviews because of servers, but I'd like to shout out Gloria. Her positive personality and manners which is not very common in Europe made dinner more pleasant. Food was good as well. I don't know why the place was less crowded than others around. Maybe late dinner times in Spain?"
