Dining at this venue proved to be a very disappointing (and pricy!) experience. Although the decor in an old house is very pleasant and charming, the food on the other hand hasn't much to do with proper Thai food. We ordered for example a papaya salad which proved to be particularly tasteless (when it's supposed to be really spicy), a Tom Yam Gong which was ridiculously salty and had us asking for numerous glasses of water and finally a chilli and lime steamed fish which was... sweet! Ridiculous amounts of sugar had been added to the lime sauce, when there shouldn't be any sugar in this recipe. The result was simply dreadful and gross. When asked the boss if the cook was indeed Thai and why did they modified the recipe that way, and were answered that adjustments had indeed been made to the original dishes to fit better with Shanghainese taste. In my opinion, and I am a big fan of Thai cooking, the result was just gross and barely edible. Service was friendly and the venue is lovely, but the food is just bad, and the prices are really high. I will not go back and would strongly recommand to avoid this restaurant.

The food was amazing.
I find myself day dreaming about it!
Its a bit pricey, but definitely worth it!
We had 3 appertizers, 2 mains, 2 cocktails and a couple of beers for around 400 RMB. So really, its not that bad.
Cant wait to go try it out in summer and sit outside in the garden.
Loved it!

The whole environment is nice, especially outdoor tables in summer, although the light is too dark. But the price is too much for it's small amount of th food. We 6 ordered about 8 dishes, but we were like starving after eating all the food. The Pad-thai is my favorite, but again, the amount is not enough for 80 yuan.
