It is an open, sunlit setup right along Cavill Avenue—tailored for an unhurried seaside lunch or an easy sunset dinner.

  • Relaxed and Open Waterside Ambience

    An open, naturally lit coastal room creates an unhurried, comfortable dining pace ideal for daytime relaxation and casual dates.

    The setting is exactly what you want on the Gold Coast — relaxed, open, with natural light pouring in.

  • Certified Halal Dining Selection

    The kitchen accommodates diverse dietary requirements with certified halal meats across a broad Thai menu and cocktail bar setting.

    The meat was halal as well which was a massive bonus

  • Substantial Share-Style Portions

    Generous share mains such as yellow curry BBQ chicken, crispy pork belly, and rich lamb shanks easily feed family and travel groups.

    We came as a big group and shared several dishes—everything was well cooked with good wok flavour.

  • Artistic Presentation and Craft Cocktails

    Artful dish presentations and showstopper cocktail creations provide an impressive centerpiece for gatherings with friends.

    The presentation and serving of the dishes were above and beyond any other Thai restaurant we have visited.

The most celebrated signature Thai mains favored by seaside diners

  • BBQ Chicken Yellow Curry

    The BBQ chicken on yellow curry was to die for. The chicken was tender and beautiful.

  • Crispy Pork Belly

    The crispy pork belly was also solid — good crackling, tender meat, and paired nicely with greens and that charred chilli on the side.

    Sissi Wang

  • Lamb Shank Curry

    The lamb shank curry was rich and very tender, and the BBQ pork ribs were juicy and perfect for sharing.

    Hang Luo

  • Pad Thai

    Pad Thai was clean and not overly saucy, which I personally prefer. You can tell they’re aiming for a more refined version rather than the typical takeaway style.

  • Lotus Root with Peanut Sauce

    I love lotus root with peanut sauce a lot. The sauce matches the crispy lotus root. This is the best dish ever.

  • Fried Ice Cream

    Would definitely recommend the fried ice cream to end the night - it was a fresh and unique take on the typical fried ice cream you find in Asian restaurants.. so yummy!

  • Satay Skewers

    The satay skewers were the highlight for me. The sauce was rich, slightly sweet, layered with flavour, and not overly heavy like many places tend to do.

  • Lychee Martini

    Try the Lychee Martini—tropical, floral, and dangerously smooth.
