This was my first time here. The food was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, all the staff were nice. Will be visiting again. We went for the 3 coarse lunch menu. With a couple of add on's prawn crackers and 2 egg fried rice to accompany our main dishes and 2 large wines we paid £84 for 2 people.

Got vouchers for Christmas last year and finally went. Good selection of food and reasonable prices. We got the sharing platter as a starter and it was delicious. Got the specials for our mains a bit disappointed that you had to order rice or noodles

Food is all too sweet to my taste. Even the pad thai is too sweet, more lime would be better to cut the sweetness. Design and decor of the restaurant are superb.

What a beautiful restaurant and the food was exceptional. We came here for my birthday and it didn’t disappoint. The starters were amazing and the server Took the time to explain what everything was. The mains was even better everything was just so fresh and tasty and full marks for presentation. We had a wonderful evening and staff are very attentive. The free birthday cake slice with a candle on was a lovely touch. Perfect evening.

Situated in the Centre of Glasgow shopping area. The restaurant was very busy during the evening. We all choose differently from a varied menu. Food was tasty and the atmosphere in this lovely classical style building was very good. Restaurant has a major chain vibe about it. Waitress service was good. The only downside being some of our party would have liked beer on draft but only bottled beer available. Would certainly go again if ever back in Glasgow.

This is the perfect place for date night, the staff are friendly and attentive and the food is amazing. There is a good vegan range of food for starters and mains (didn't get desserts) which are clearly labeled on the menu. I had the sweetcorn cakes and then the pad thai, and my friend had the chicken tacos and the chicken with cashew nuts stir fry. I would 100% recommend these dishes. The menu also states how spicy the food is which is helpful. There is a long list of cocktails, a bit on the pricey side but definitely worth it. Their version of a pornstar martini is the best I've ever had. We called up and booked a late reservation, where we were seated didn't look like some of the photos online, I think maybe if you ask or book further in advance there might be more scenic tables to sit at.

The building itself is beautiful with so much detail to look at and enjoy. The food is beautiful with great vegetarian and vegan options. Cocktails are delicious too. My only gripe is for a 12.5% service charge the service isn’t great. It’s an expensive restaurant but the staff don’t seem to particularly care. We had to ask 3 different servers 4 times and wait 20 minutes to get our change which they seemed to think was an additional £10 tip on top of the £28 service already charged

Brought my Mum for lunch to celebrate her birthday. The restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday afternoon. We were seated quickly and ordered drinks while reviewing the menu. I’ve visited this restaurant frequently but it seems to be getting more tired and in vast need of some TLC. The carpet is worn at every step on the staircases and looks in need of a good clean. The toilet sink area was covered in water, hand driers not working, flush button broken, no toilet paper etc. My Thai green curry (prawn) was ok, not at the same quality as I’ve enjoyed previously. However my Mum had the beef Penang which was really disappointing. I recommended this dish to her as I had ordered it frequently previously and the beef was melt in the mouth and falling apart and really tasty, however what was served was tough and chewy. I advised our server of this who took 20% off of this dish when the bill arrived. The flies buzzing around our food was also a real turn off! Won’t be back I’m afraid

It's a nice, cosy place to dine in with a lovely ambience. Food was good in taste as well, although we would have loved to have it served hot/warm. The main issue was the service as the place seemed quite understaffed to serve all customers, so it took long to see someone to attend us as well as get us what we wanted - a few times forgetting to get us what we wanted. Not sure if it was just that day or it's like that in general.

Beautiful restaurant and very welcoming, efficient staff. Tried the Yom set menu which was delicious and very well balanced. Followed it up with a rum based cocktail each which were also delicious and beautifully presented. Unfortunately unlikely to visit again as on a brief visit to Glasgow from a few hundred miles away, but will seek out other restaurants a little closer.

Really looking forward to visiting. Such a lovely setting. Once sitted, no one came near us until the waitress taking the order from the table next to us, who sat down after us, saw my face. The food was delicious, but I had asked for no nuts and chilli for my son, and it came with extra chilli ? but got sorted quickly. We then had to ask for the table to be cleared and asked for dessert menus. He said he would be back.....never to be seen again but did watch him eat his dinner in the kitchen. It was expensive, which would be fine if the service had been good. Unfortunately, I will not be back ?

A midweek meal with 2 work colleagues; we ordered the ‘Atchara’ set menu and was delighted with the standard of execution and bold flavours and authentic taste of the meal. Service was very attentive and servers were very friendly and accommodating. Only disappointment was the lack of drinks choices due to a problem with their draught facility and limited numbers of bottled beverages. Would highly recommend.
