AI Summary

Brighton's modern Thai standout, famed for the 16-hour panang lamb shank and Edible Forest dessert.

A stylish, elegant dining room that turns bustling and noisy when full; upstairs seating is quieter but described as a touch under-decorated.

Elaborately plated dishes, a signature multi-textured 'Edible Forest' dessert built to resemble a forest scene, and a well-regarded cocktail list.

Opinion is split: most reviewers, including some raised in Thailand, call it authentic and refined, but one detailed review from a Thailand-raised diner felt the fusion techniques (sous vide, tataki-style searing) made it feel disjointed and 'not very Thai'.

Pricier than typical Thai restaurants (around $55-75 per head), which most reviewers say is worth it for the presentation and quality, though a few call it overpriced for the portions.
