We had a good experience here!…read more AMBIANCE: This is in a food court-style shared space inside a mall, so not the most ambiance ever. But we were craving affordable thai, and this seemed like the spot! FOOD: They offer pretty affordable prices with a variety of curry, noodles, and soup dishes. We opted for a curry with rice and a noodle dish. I found the curry sauce to be really oily, but the flavor was good. The sauce/flavor of the noodles was good, but veggie pieces were huge and on the more al dente side. SERVICE: Service is counter only with some seating onsite that can fill up during mealtimes. They call your order when the food is ready. I like that they have an open kitchen so you can see your meal being made!

I may be biased because I'm coming from San Francisco where we have really good Asian food and fusion food. But I felt like the shaking beef sauce was way too sweet and overpowering, but the cook on the beef was amazing. the curry was a little bit, lacking in flavor and the chicken just seemed like grilled chicken thrown into the sauce rather than cinnamon within the sauce. The tuna and the nachos was really good, but the sauce is overpowered the taste. The kokoda was actually one of my favorite dishes though. Service was good overall. You go up and pay at the end. Ambiance is a little bit of a tiki scene - dark and a bit loud

Still we ordered a few appetizers, like Chicken Satay, Prawn toast, Malaysian cabbage and we added Duck to that meal because it was suggested that the Chicken will come spicier. Anyway, the Chicken Satay is yummy with three skewers. However, the peanut sauce that came with this didn't taste like there's any peanut in the sauce as it was very pale in color. We, also, felt there's way too much sesame seeds and too little shrimp for the prawn toast with the Sriracha mayo.

Especially considering this is in the downtown area, I can see it getting packed for dinner. I loved the ambiance and decor inside the restaurant. I got the laksa after reading many reviews recommending this dish. It was on the spicy side, and it was good, but I wouldn't say it was outstanding. Next time I would try something else. I was intrigued by the Portuguese custard tarts, as that wasn't expected from a Malaysian restaurant, but I was already planning on getting dessert later, so I skipped them this time.

We were all convinced that we ordered too much food but it was just enough. We had to flag down a waiter for more drinks which I didn't like, but they were good mixed drinks. They brought us out the wrong desserts and we were a little confused at first but by the time we figured it out, the waiter was no where to be seen. Since they never checked in on us, we just ate the dessert that we didn't order. What brings this rating down is we spent plenty of money and they had the audacity to tell us to leave while we were talking and finishing up our meal so that they could sit customers waiting in the line. They only checked in on us when it was convenient for them. Good food but not so good service. Try it if you'd like but I wouldn't recommend.

I went shortly after 4 pm, when they open for dinner. There were no diners in the restaurant, but…read morethey were working on delivery orders. I ordered takeaway: Panang curry (mild) with pork, and curry puffs. The order was ready in less than 15 minutes and cost just over NZ$34 (US$20). BTW, if you want rice, that's extra. There's a ramp up to the restaurant. One of the toilets in the restaurant is accessible. The curry puffs were interesting. They were completely filled (no pockets of air) and were not greasy. I liked them but longed for a stronger curry flavor. So I dipped them in the Panang curry! It was even better. I do stuff like that, dip or mix other Thai food into whatever curry I got. Their version of Panang curry included green beans, carrots, and peas. There was a generous amount of pork. And while I requested mild, I'd classify the heat as mild-medium. My nose started running almost immediately. The curry had less of a peanut-y flavor as most others I've tried. I would have liked less heat, and a more intense flavor. But all in all, it was pretty good. Probably a good intro to Thai curry for those who haven't had it before.

During the wait, we grabbed drinks at a nearby brewery, working up an appetite. Once seated, we ordered the seafood platter (188NZ$ for two)- offering variety including: oysters, smoked salmon, crawfish, prawns, and fresh garlic bread. A hearty platter, it filled the bellies, with fresh tasty, well-seasoned eats- though it was not the most impressive seafood we've had in NZ, though the highest price tag (blame the crawfish)- had we not wanted to try crawfish, we wouldn't have dined at the location-and that would be my referral-try them to try crawfish at a decent price, but otherwise-passable. Though super friendly staff, who took time to talk NZ Gin with me, making recommendations for drinks.
