"we came here at the beginning of December in a busy night before we went to the cinema. I called earlier to make a reservation for two and asked if we were quickly served to make our movie. we booked for 7pm something earlier than the party bookings. the tables were a little close together. but even if they were busy, we were really served fast and finished in time to go to the cinema for 7.45. the appetizers were excessive for what they were according to my opinion. we ordered a part of the garlic garnel on spits we got four garnels and a diving sauce for about 8 pfu and they tasted nothing. for the net we ordered the crispy sea roast with red curry sauce from the special menu and the prawn yellow curry. the sea roast came as two filets drowned with sauce. it was not fresh. it tasted very fish and was a bit overcooked. the dish was quite dry in a bite. the yellow curry sauce was amazing. the grilled part was generous and there was a lot of extra sauce we used to mask the sea roast on the other plate. it only took a few more sweets in a pot to complete the court. we ordered a part rice and it was quite large enough for two with rest of our food. we had a court next to Roti canai. the roti were delicious. there was not enough sauce for the two rotis so we used the sauce from our curry. overall we have eaten well and made it into the cinema in time. the service was fast and friendly. I'm glad we came to the time we went, there was a snake for tables all over the stairs. when we came back here, we would skip appetizers and order a few different curries and a little extra sweet and enjoy us."

"To kick things off, we ordered a sharing plate for two that included chicken satay, pork skewers, crab crackers, and crispy spring rolls, accompanied by various dips. Everything was delicious, but the pork skewers were a standout; the meat was incredibly tender, and the tamarind sauce was perfectly balanced. The chicken satay was also enjoyable, flavorful, and not dry like chicken can sometimes be. I felt that the portion was a bit light since it cost £14 for two servings, and each of us only got one of each item, but in hindsight, it seemed reasonable as a starter before the main course. For our mains, we each ordered a noodle dish—I had the Pad Thai, and my partner had the prawn drunken noodles, and we shared a plate of stir-fried eggplant. The portions for the mains were generous, and my Pad Thai was exactly what I wanted—delicious! The drunken noodles were also fantastic, with good prawns. The eggplant was the real highlight; it was soft and silky, beautifully cooked with an incredibly rich, flavorful sauce. I was glad we shared it, as it was quite rich. We paired our meal with a bottle of house white wine, which was nice, light, and fruity, complementing the food perfectly. The food came out quickly, which is ideal for a pre-theater dinner, but we never felt rushed and were able to enjoy our wine and relax a bit before heading out. The restaurant was fully booked, so I recommend making a reservation for a pre-theater meal through their website. It's worth noting that a service fee is automatically added to the bill, just so you're aware. For two people (possibly 2.5 courses and wine), our meal came to £75, including tips, which is a bit more than we would typically spend, but completely reasonable for the quality of dining in London’s theater district."
