  We were up on Charlotte Street for our anniversary, and had made a booking at a restaurant. It was rather early but most of the places were busy - except for the place we booked, which was empty. We decided that wasn't a good sign and started walking up to see the other options.
  
  Charlotte Street is full of eateries, but nothing was taking our fancy. We ended up at Thai Metro, which was of course not the appropriate place for an anniversary dinner, but it was nice for a quick meal.
  
  The portions were really large and we left loads of food, unfortunately. I had a chicken massaman and it was absolutely crammed full of peanuts - luckily I thought it worked and really enjoyed it.
  
  I'd come back for a casual dinner as it was pretty tasty, a decent price, and the service was fine. Thumbs up!

  I've only ever known Thai Metro to be overflowing at lunch hours due to its popularity among workers. I went at around 2pm on a Friday and within twenty minutes had the restaurant to myself which was pleasant. I ordered the following:
  
  - Drunken noodles with beef
  
  You get a generous portion and a slice of lime which adds a nice kick. It was a bit too sweet for me however and could do with a bit more spice (although admittedly I didn't request extra chilli, which is something that can be done). The beef was the biggest disappointment, being far too chewy without the flavour to back it up. I don't mind having to chew as long as the taste is retained throughout. The problem with the beef here as with a lot of beef in general is that the flavour soon dissipates resulting in no reward for the chew.
  
  I think I could better spend the money elsewhere but if you're in the area, it's worth checking out.

  Great lunch options!
  
  Food: They have a very nice lunch special menu with appetizers, main dish and dessert for a reasonable price. I love their fish cake appetizer! The desserts were amazing as well, even though they took a very long time to make them (over 20 mins after we're done with our food).
  
  Service: Like what? We finished our main dishes and waited a long time for our dessert. We didn't really mind it because we were having a good conversation. However, the guy just came to clean our table and put two new menus in our face with an attitude. We were really confused but he didn't give us a chance to ask any questions and left. Five minutes later, we got attention from another staff to say that we were waiting for our desserts. She was like "oh, ok" then took the menus away, not apologizing for the mistake or acknowledging our wait. Well, oh, ok.

  The food here wasn't bad, but wasn't outstanding either.
  
  However they do offer free home delivery and thats what gives them the extra half star. I would rate them 3.5. Delivery was quite prompt and my order was accurately delivered.
  
  I enjoyed the corn cakes and drunken pork rice. The chicken with cashewnuts had some pineapple in it which I wasn't expecting. The red curry was good, but didn't come with rice (I'm so used to rice being included with thai curries at restaurants back home)
  
  The pork with drunken bamboo shoots wasn't as exciting as I had hoped and used very thinly sliced lean cuts of pork which made it taste more like chicken.
  
  They don't deliver desserts home (probably because they all include ice cream?)
