    Finally spice levels to fuck with vanilla Brits. Some dishes do miss but who cares. Get the wings, feel the burn & drink cold beer.

    Great small dishes to share. You must like food with a kick though. Everything is spicy!! The fish dishes aren’t spicy so is nice to get for a balance.

    Goat massaman is delicious and the duck laab is very spicy but damn addictive!

    Great menu! Have been here a few times, would definitely recommend booking a table as can get busy! I don’t think you would be disappointed!

    One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Get the chili fish sauce chicken wings, the northern laab, and the lardo fried rice

    All food is intensely Thai flavoured. Super lovely, spicy and authentic. Drinkswise stear away from the “thai” bloody mary!!

    Delicious roti, outstanding khua kling pork, the massaman goat is a big unit and they do an amazing fried egg thing. Lovely (if quite small) cocktails too.

    Wings, goat massaman and lardo fried rice were standouts for me! Punchy flavours in all the dishes!

    Food was good, but failed to meet my expectations, considering all raving reviews. Yes, it is spicy and unusual, but would not come back again soon.

    If you don’t like it too spicy ask the staff what to choose, they are very helpful! The goat is amazing, definitely a must have!

    Get the bbq goat massaman to share and the crispiest chicken wings served with a concoction of honey and fish sauce. 😋

    Omg the wings 😍. Pumpkin curry, lardo rice, and cocktails also great. Chicken liver and beef salad not so much.

    Not Thai and not tasty, mushrooms drowning in oil, tasted awful. Sticky rice was old. Fried rice - I serve better to my family at home. The staff saves the place, great ppl who make you feel welcome

    The chicken wings in fish sauce taste interesting, but is drenched in oil. The brisket and marrow curry just taste like oil. The lamb laab is spicy, but dry. Reasonable prices for London.

    Definitely the skewers, the rest is a bit of a let down but decent, just not amazing.... I think my friends oversold the place to me

    Fried rice and minced pork are okay, didn’t really like anything else. Surprisingly affordable given the nice ambiance.

    Pork skewers were great. Duck laab and goat curry were very mediocre. No flavour actually in the goat. 3rd attempt without booking and we finally got in...wish we hadn't.

    Absolutely flavourless. Even the dishes rated spicy barely burnt. Goat was oily and tasteless. Skewers and laab were fine, wine was good. Questionable if chef has actually been to Thailand.

    Nice food but no dessert menu. Disappointing experience. I don’t need to be told by the waiter that coffee isn’t served in London bars that serve food and asking for coffee afterwards is unusual.

    Was quite disappointed in this place. The fish sauce chili wings were the best part but quite salty. The kra pow mutton tasted game-y. And the egg noodle was entirely unappetising.

    Located in one of the most stylish areas! You should try the laab rice! The mussels are so delicious..! The bone marrow has a spectacular sauce! Strictly recommended!!

    The dishes are tasty but all tend towards salty, whereas Thai cuisine aims to strike a balance.

    Overrated. The brisket and marrow curry was drowned in oil so untasteable and 80% marrow. Rest of the food average. Fusion thai does. not. work.

    Way to spicy and salty . Guys way TO MUCH . I eat spicy but at this level you must get train before ! Have you tried to eat a soup ? Good flavored but to spicy ,then you have to fight with the crab!

    So overrated. Very few vegan; at least says "most dishes contain fish" on menu but come on. Also use excuse of serving when ready - ended up with rice out last. Would not recommend. Not worth it.
