“ Oh my goodness, the food is amazing! Went for lunch with a chef, a teenager and a toddler and everyone loved it! Sooooo much to choose from, and a whole vegetarian menu too. Couldn't pick between lemongrass tofu and spicy seitan, so they did me half and half - both were absolutely delicious! But the star was a side of crispy cauliflower which blew everyone away. New favourite place in Stockport. ”
“ One of the best restaurants you can have!! The staffs are so nice and lovely and the food oh my god... no wonder they are so busy and popular and require pre bookingwe came to this place from Sheffield and it’s definitely worth it!! And it’s very vegan friendly as well ”
“ Finally visited here and so glad we did! Vegetable crispy rolls and tofu pad Thai were both very tasty. My partner had chicken wings and the Kar Ko. Friendly staff. Food came out quickly. Definitely try the Asian doughnuts for dessert! Can’t wait to come back! ”
“ Fantastic food, freshly cooked to order. Extensive menu with a good selection of veggie and vegan options also. Great service with just the right amount of attention. Pay by cash or card (cash only for tips); really good value for money. Open lunchtimes and evenings. ”
“ Very tasty and filling food! We went on A Saturday as the doors opened with a reservation - it gets busy quickly so I recommend booking a table beforehand. The summer rolls are massive and crispy salad is great to share between two. I went for the Lao special pho with extra meatballs for the main and it was delicious. Good selection of condiments on the side too. ”
“ What a lovely place. Good food and great service. Asked for tap water and it arrived straight away as opposed most restaurants who either forget or deliberately forget. Quality service indeed. Veggie spring rolls were pleasant. Very happy with my Lao style combo pho. Everything in it was cooked to perfection. Broth was not oily at all and was refreshing. Friend had curry noodles with tofu and he really loved it. I didn't even get to try a bit! He was saying there's something special about the taste. He was raving about the tofu too. Such a shame I don't live in Stockport otherwise I'd have visited very often! I will definitely be back when in Stockport next! ”
“ What a find! Great tasty food, friendly staff, great atmosphere. Noodle soup stocks are full of flavour, and the garlic chicken wings are superb. Nice cold beers and Soju are available and reasonably priced. ”
“ One of the best restaurants in the area. Nice Vietnamese/Thai etc dishes, loved the Mixed seafood pad see ew, the Angor wings, crispy squid. I guess the spicy drunken noodles were the weakest plate - they indeed have a "bite", but not enough savoury flavour otherwise. Small restaurant, you might want to reserve your table, very polite service. ”
