“Amazing find above the Surry Hills Hotel. I had Pad Thai and it was sensational. My husband had the chicken parmi he's been craving and he raved about it. Seriously great food including the sides of chips and salad. Everything done exceptionally well. Service was amazing. And the price... crazy good.”
