Quite disappointed. Ordered a classic Thai noodle dish pad kee mao (drunken noodle). Waited 30 minutes. Turned out they didn’t use Hofoen noodle, they changed it to pad Thai noodle without asking or telling. It’s like making a pad Thai but using vermicelli noodle.
Won’t recommend and go back.
To reply the restaurant: drunken noodle is known as pad kee mao in Thai dish. You’re the only Thai restaurant I ever been to that says drunken noodle and pad kee mao are two different things. In addition, it does not matter how long you’ve been cooking pad kee Mao with pad thai noodle, there always will be someone’s first time to try your restaurant. In the end, if you want to lie, at least make sure I don’t have proof. I have attached the photo to prove that I ordered at 17:15. You said 20 mins. When I got there it’s 17:45, the noodle was still in the wok.

Was asking for dinning but give me a take away box.
The owner ask me to use the little box to dinning after I double mention I wanted to dinning.
No napkin is provided at all.
At the end I have to dinning in my car with this soggy noodle.
Brooo, if you love to be treated as a beggar this is a right place.

Pad Ped Thai, Robina.
Wouldn’t you think, with a name like Pop PadPed Thai, that they’d know how to make Pad Ped!
Four years ago, if we ordered Pad Ped Prawns from the previous owners, we used to get a ‘heap’ of crisp veggies, moist prawns, and a delicious sauce. We hoped that it had improved since we tried it when the new owners first took over, but it definitely hasn’t.
Now it’s virtually no veggies (in fact it was ONE small piece of carrot!!), dry prawns, no sauce, and an absolute ‘truck-load’ of dry and gluggy noodles. So gluggy, in fact, that you cannot possibly separate them on your fork or chopsticks.
We will NEVER go back - unless they hopefully sell and new owners (who know how to cook!!) take over.

Great for a quick bite- good portion of pad thai but a bit salty, and wouldn't recommend the massaman beef curry- no depth of flavour profile, just sweet. Would say its okay for thai. Nice to support a local place.

Walked in and walked straight out as there was no air conditioning in an enclosed space and no staff present when entering the empty dining room (not one table). Restaurant next door was almost full as they had aircon on and staff serving tables. If you’re trying to save money by not having aircon on it’s a big mistake as you will not attract customers to eat in a hot dining room!
