Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Excellent food and lovely service. One of the best green curries I have had. Good for my vegetarian daughter too who had pad Thai noodles with tofu.

From popping my head into the restaurant when it was open after 5pm to the dining experience which included my favourite white wine to the food was exquisite and excellent. Including advice sought when selecting a dessert was amazing All the staff were most helpful...and the head chef made sure we were happy with our dining experience I would recommend a visit to this restaurant if you want excellent Thai dining experience and I will be returning to dine here again when next visiting East Sussex.More

Despite only living a few villages away, I had never been here before. Went with a long time friend and I have to say what an amazing little place this is. The food was to die for...really good, and the service impeccable. This is a...family run restaurant and they are such lovely people with a really kind way about them. Totally amazing experience; I think we were the last to leave. Please try and visit this restaurant, you will want to come back again and again! I loved it.More

I popped my head around the door and was greeted by a friendly gentleman. I wished to give my order for a take out, then pop back after a couple of errands. My order was efficiently taken by the lovely lady and she told me...she would go and cook it right away. I did not have to wait long because we ordered very early. When we returned to our cottage we could enjoy the phenomenal food she had prepared. I have not tasted Thai food as beautiful as this take out, in a very long time. It was utterly scrumptious. Highly recommend this restaurant. The location is up an alleyway near The George Hotel. You may miss it if you drove quickly in the high street.More

Food was gorgeous however service was slow (after 1 hour 30mins only had starter) the manager did apologise for this later but then we had an issue with another diner who was very drunk and spent over an hour on FaceTime loudly speaking to a...relative in Australia!! This was ruining the meal for many other diners and was never addressed by staff particularly when she became abusive and accused us of listening to her conversation ( which believe me you couldn’t help but hear!!) the staff even offered her free shots when she’d clearly drunk more than enough… the manager eventually sent his young female staff up to see what was happening.. seriously that should have been him .. we ended up leaving very disappointed with what could’ve been a whole different experience 😳More

Nice venue. We booked an early table. Table go 9 adults and 1 toddler. We chose the set menu. £35.95 for 2 courses inc tea or coffee. Starters mediocre. Mains lots of veg inc crinkle cut carrots 😳. We did raise a concern and to...be fair they did chat to us and provided extra rice and 2 pad Thai dishes. We came away feeling our £36 per head was not value for money. I’ve been before and it was much nicer.More

Very nice restaurant, best pad Thai I've had in a long time, lovely building, friendly staff. The only negative comment would be the price of the wine! £11 for large glass of merlot (which was very nice I must say) Other than that, very good!

There is much to like about the ambience of this cosy little place tucked away off the high street. However the food, although acceptable, could be better. One dish arrived in a pool of oil; in another, the potatoes and cauliflower tasted as if they...had been hanging around for a few days. A appetiser was very small. Most importantly, a specific (and reasonable) request made ahead of time was agreed to and then ignored. With food, freshness, responsiveness and generosity is everything. Could do better.More

I had a meal when staying just opposite to the hotel. By far the best Thai food I have had. Seating was ample and staff is attentive. Food arrived on time and it was cleared very timely. Highly recommended restaurant.

I hadn't been here for around 10 years, and it was a wonderful surprise to find friendly smiley staff, who were very helpful and efficient right from booking via email through to serving and wishing us a good evening as we left. A lovely energy...in the air apparent from when we entered. Our food was brilliant - I've never had such crispy light non-greasy tempura. We didn't think it was overly expensive and we certainly felt we were looked after extremely well. Will definitely recommend, and go back soon. Its was also good to be somewhere mid week where there were more than a few tables occupied!More

Fantastic place. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone although would advise booking. We were seated within minutes of arrival and didn't have long to wait once we had ordered our meals. The food was to die for. We've visited Thailand and the food here was just...as good as the food we ate in Thailand. Would thoroughly recommend.More
