Casual , budget friendly dinner . The Thai Calamari is what brings me here ????. Pad thai is good too. Downside for some is the communal seating - you will be seated on a table with strangers.

Don’t get intimidated by the long queue; it moves quickly as the service is very efficient. Try the fabulous thai calamari , pad thai or a cup of tea accompanied by the most delicious ginger biscuits ! Read more

Great fast Thai food near Selfridges. Favourite is the Tom Kha Chicken (lemongrass chicken with light coconut broth) and their tea , which comes with a small cookie . Usually packed at night.

Classic pad Thai is good, beef chilli from modern Thai is fantastic, calamari is delicious

Johannes Driessen

Try the cocktails / mocktails . The Guava Collins is a good place to start. Keep a drink or two ready to counteract the chillies in your meal too

Manar

So good & delicious calamari for starters , sen chan pad thai ????????

Robert

Magdalena Welcz

Great, fresh food . Everything had completely different taste, but at the same time everything was tasty!

Greg Lear

My first visit. The Jungle Chicken was really good and about medium spice . The prices are $$$ out five. The service is good and the atmosphere is open.

Reem

Slow service ???? ! Try their Goong Tohd & the Green Curry Fried Rice , I enjoyed a juice called "Guava Collins " its very refreshing???? In case you're unsure, the restaurant is behind GAP bond st ????

Mohammed Almoalla

Damian Fraire Luengo

In general the food was okey, but i personally liked the Arroz de Coco it was so nice! I give them a 8'5.

Lucille Fisher

It's always a pleasure to dine here-consistently good & authentic Thai cuisine. And moderate prices & good service as well .

Jenita Ferreira

Starter Thai Calamari - I dream about it - yes it is that good! Just do yourself a favour and order it. Suggest you order a dipping order on the side to make the awesomeness complete!

Jojo Folayan

Vanessa Kyriazi

Mark Andres

The squid ... OMG the squid ! You must have the squid !

Hano A

Pad Thai ! All the time. Shrimp curry is also very good. Calamari/squid appetizer also.

Rinatsu Chan

Thair calamari is amazing. Some dishes have a pretty weird spices so it's not for everyone's tastes.

Anthony Sexton

The spicy beef with rice was very tasty (And spicy !). Satay were pretty good to start with too.

S Kam

Fast service , but the food is hardly eatable: Tom Yam too spicy broth with 2 prawns per 1 liter of water. Tamarind duck with some dodgy smell. Pad Thai fried in the burnt oil, with strong off- smell.

Daniella Kaliada

Get the tables by the window and order perfect coconut prawn and coconut rice with a glass of jasmine smoothie , xx

Just excellent! MUST: Charcoal grilled duck , thai kalamari, asparagus fried rise and pad thai ! Yummy!

Ali Al-Hamidah

I tried Duck Char-grill , chicken satay and prawn crackers as 19.99 £ value set.. Best thing I had was the chicken satay .. staff is too busy and I won't come again, kind of overrated!!

Abrar Almusharraf

The spring roll 5/10 but the green curry chicken and coconut rice are 10/10

Virginie????????????????

Arwa M

Black paper noodles & Calamari are my favorite!!

Alexia K

Best Thai food especially for a chain , try the pad Thai and the kalamari squid

Sandra R.

Every dish is delicious but I don't recommend the salads . Nice place just behind Oxford street :)

Irfan Qureshi

The Thai calamari is unlike any I've had before. Not your everyday typical restaurant calamari . Order it, seriously... Unless you are vegetarian

Yousef

My first experience with Thai food was in this branch in 2009 I like the whole menu

Anna Rachmann

Great for a casual lunch with friends. Very tasty

Chioma Chuka

The Guava Collins is excellent, and now you can get a small or large portion .
