"| Ambience: Mall is pretty much dead and hence the restaurant and its surrounding were relatively quiet. | Price Point vs. Quality & Quantity: We ordered a total of 5 dishes, namely: White Tom Yam Soup - Above average Chicken Feet Salad - Above average; papaya slices were well preserved. Pineapple Fried Rice - Decent Petai with prawns - Decent, petai used was smaller in size. Mango Sticky Rice - Decent. Generous serving of mango Total bill was only 40+ RM (recap: we ordered 5 dishes) and therefore price point is excellent. | Space: Small but there was no crowd (we went at 6pm). | Service: Decent. | Xtra: Restaurant is located at the top/4th floor of the mall. *Verdict: Definitely worth a revisit based on price point. But do not expect excellent quality."

"The atmosphere there is very Thai... Many Thai visited this place when I was there. The food is yummy and with reasonable price. However, the mango glutinous rice is a bit too sweet for me. The tom yam soup (I forgot to take pic) is also very delicious. I will definitely visit again when I go Prangin Mall."

"Just like a mini Thai street food corner. Recommended to drop by to grab a fast meals. Recommended- Basil Pork Rice and Roast Pork fried rice with Sambal. Surprisingly it was like a hidden place for Thai food that selling in reasonable price and great taste. Not fancy, it just simple and all time flavour for everyone. The food not too spicy maybe because they wanted to match local taste buds if you want spicy you may request during order. Thai Green Tea was good also"

"Cheapest, tastiest thai food in this region of Penang. I have been coming here since i can remember. When i’m on a budget and time are rough, i can always come here for the best type of comfort oily food. It looks very unassuming, but the best restaurants are usually small humble businesses. Let me share with yall the food i have had; Roasted pork with kailan Roasted pork fried rice Salted fish fried rice Sambal belacan fried rice Seafood fried rice Basil chicken All these has been spectacular and the best part is they’re all so cheap and affordable. If you are in prangin mall, do stop by to try this place. You wont regret it!"

"Delicious food and cheap price. We were looking for a place that we didn't have to queue up to eat. We found this little gem when looking. It's meant to be a Thai restaurant, but honesty, nothing on the menu was genuine thai food. Even though it's not really thai food, the food was still amazing. The entrée food was delicious but very oily and also more expensive than the main itself. The noodles were delicious and flavourful, as was the chicken but, again, very oily. Overall, not thai food but still very delicious and cheap."
