Really rather decent little Thai restaurant (part of a chain, I'm told, although it didn't feel terribly chain-y), and good value for the heart of Soho.

Eating at peak time on a Saturday, we got a table immediately (although larger groups should book, as it was fairly busy). Service was always prompt, unfussy and friendly.

The food was to a good standard - not stunning, but was very solid. The starter dumplings were lovely, although a touch clingy in texture. The Thai green curry was very good, definitely on the spicier side - perhaps losing a little of the subtlety you get in the best green curries, but it was certainly tasty. My friend, however, complained that the stir fry beef was rather bland, which is a shame.

So, not a world beater, but for generally good Thai food in Central London, at nice prices (under £20 each for two courses and drinks) with quick and efficient service, you could do a lot worse.
