I’ve tasted a lot of Thai food but this restaurant provides unique taste which is to my liking. I would suggest you to try braised duck, fried duck beak and stirred fried vegetable.

We came here on a whim just looking to eat dinner before checking into the hotel, and we struck gold! There are 10 of us and the seats easily accommodate large groups. It's really great for small plates to share, but I mainly ate what the menu calls Beef Jerky. It's more like stir fried beef cutlets in like a soy sauce and sesame seed sauce mix. It's really tasty. It came with a mild and spicy dipping sauce that is also good, but not really needed as the beef is already flavored so artistically.

Large open air restaurant. Good staff and excellent for larger groups. Food is good and reasonably priced. Getting a smoker nearby is a risk but staff will here you move to another table promptly. Can occasionally be a bit noisy at night with locals racing their pimped out bikes along Sukhumvit. Recommended.
