We found this restaurant whilst searching through reviews. Although a small menu, everything was so beautifully cooked and so tasty. Great service. Will go again for sure.
Spectacular authentic Thai food, great views over the bay, and friendly and professional staff. Thanks to Adam and the team for a great visit! We will be back! Particularly recommend the croquettes, the pad Thai and the sticky mango rice
We shared a few smaller dishes and ended with a curry. Everything was delicious. We really liked the asian twist on the, for the most part, spanish traditional dishes. Great service and nice sea view. Reservation required during high season, and I recommend asking for a table by the window and the ceter part of the interior can get quite warm.
We had an amazing dinner at this Thai restaurant by the sea in Mallorca. The setting was beautiful and peaceful, perfect for a relaxed diner/lunch. The highlight was definitely the Tom Kha soup. It was creamy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. We also loved the fresh prawns, which were juicy, tender, and full of taste. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere felt very welcoming. If you’re in Mallorca and craving authentic Thai food with a view, this place is a must to try! Thankyou for everything
First visit & won’t be the last, the food was delicious, we had a table in the window with views of Santa Ponsa bay… reasonable prices & perfect size portions, wanted to try the sticky rice but was too full!! Another time!
The staff were super friendly, the food was delicious, and I’d especially recommend the duck!
Saw this place and wanted to try. So we saved for lunch on our last day. Just opened up for lunch and we were first in. Both had chicken pad thai. Almost forgot to get pic. It was so delicious and presented well. Definitely recommend.
