To all my Asian friends, this is NOT an authentic Asian restaurant. It's FUSION. Asian food with European twist. If you come looking for your homely taste, you're in the wrong place. Do try it if you're looking for some adventure and creativity. Personally I think it's okay because most of the food come with the same garnish. Pork belly is highly recommended and all the sauces are very well balanced. Lemongrass chicken like other reviews said, only has a very faint lemongrass taste to it. Ended up more like stir fry chicken..

Rendang is very delicious. Tofu with rice only comes with few pieces of tofu and lots of veggies. Lemongrass chicken doesnt have lemongrass smell. Rice is too small to finish with the dishes. Inside looks gloomy with dim lighting. Decoration is nice and very SEA looks.

Good South east Asian food! I had the Crispy prawns and Nasi goreng. The Nasi goreng was really good, right amount of salt and spice. One suggestion would be to add a fried egg on top to complete an authentic experience.

The DIY spring rolls are such a cool concept, should definitely give those a try. BYO wine is a treat as well. Tofu mains were tasty though next time I'd get one noodle and one rice main for variety!

Great flavored food. Especially enjoyed the DIY fresh spring rolls. Only disappointment was they were out of international beers to complement the Thai cuisine

This is the best mixed Asian restaurant I've ever been to. The menu has been curated specifically to showcase some of the most popular dishes from South East Asia. You'll find something to your own taste as the range is very broad. The rendang is phenomenal. Whatever is happening in the kitchen is beyond my own cooking capabilities. It would be great if they could add a Tom Yum to the menu, maybe next time I'm in town. Good location, friendly staff, generous servings and moderately priced. I'll be back as soon as I can!

Lovely little restaurant. It feels spacious with their eclectic furnishings. Staff were lovely and efficient. The appetizers arrived quite quickly! Our empty plates were removed as soon as they were finished. The mains arrived not long after we finished our mains. Lots of asian clientele, which gave us confidence in the menu. The pork fried rice was very tasty - and although, it could have done with a bit more pork ( because it was perfectly tender and we all loved it), the pork flavour did not overpower the rest of the rice which was great. The lemongrass chicken was very fragrant. The rice on the plate was perfect. It was great to have the different textures on the dish. Very enjoyable. Food was presented nicely and very tasty. The combination appetizers were all delicious 😋. We would all have ordered more of the Crispy Chicken and the Dumplings - that coriander sauce was amazing!! They had our favourite Bundaberg Ginger beer, but that beautifully presented Coconut Mango Lassie was sooo delicious - we needed more of those! Prices were reasonable.

April2021: Food really delishish. Slight mix up with entree after mains, but that got sorted.. 7 Prawns is not enough for a main dish. It was tasty and with great veggies. Rice lovely and sticky, but slightly burnt.
