Busy for a good reason! Just around the corner. Great anytime of the day - open seven days a week. Described as an 'eating house and bar' rather than a restaurant, this is a welcoming and relaxing place to enjoy Andrew McConnell’s widely acclaimed food.

In many ways this Thai eatery is one of the most successful restaurants Melbourne has ever seen. It opened in mid-2011, with queues from day one. No bookings. The best bet is to arrive early, put your name down and head somewhere for a few drinks – perhaps Go Go Bar downstairs. You’ll get a call or text when your table is ready.
