Still has temperature checks for customers and insists on the use of hand sanitiser but no problem with that.
Enjoyed the food personally but the wife didn't.

It is very cold today, I wanna eat a bowl of Tom Yam kung soup, it is disappointing that the soup looks like dishwater.

One of the safest COVID aware places we have ever visited. Temp taken on arrival. Tables, chairs and menu sanitised between each customer. Very helpful friendly service. Lovely food with vegan options.

I've been here twice and both occasions had amazing service from staff, and brilliant food. The desert menu included, was so good, especially the fried ice cream!! I'd recommend to get the lamb chops for starters. Cannot wait to go back when it re-opens :)

Visited from Florida and this place was right up the road from where we were staying. The best Thai I've ever had. I'd be willing to jump on a plane to travel 8 hours to go again. Staff was friendly, decor was nice. I can't stop telling everyone how much I loved this place lol

I really fancied some pad thai for lunch...so decided to go for a wander around Holborn to find some. This place looked really busy, so I asked if they did take-away, and then ordered their set lunch with pad thai and a couple of sticks of satay chicken.

Unfortunately, although this was much more expensive than most of my go-to lunch places (I paid £11 for take-out), it just didn't taste that good. It didn't taste of anything really! It was just a bland, slightly lemon-y smoodge of noodles. It did have a good number of king prawns - but even king prawns can't save a dish

All well and good to have a reasonably priced set lunch with a student discount included to attract people, but when the pad thai includes a choice of either chicken or tofu, and the waitress (knowing you are students) tells you that they can "mix" both choices without implying that there'll be an extra charge then it turns into a massive con. We… were under the impression that it would be half chicken and half tofu equalling the same price.
It wouldn't have been so bad if the extra charges were reasonable and if their portions matched their prices... but to be charged an extra £2

We arrived 40 minutes before closing time and they were nice enough to let us in. We were served really quick, too.

I got the Mussaman curry, one of the safe and non spicy options in Thai restaurants. The lamb was very soft and well cooked. The sticky rice unfortunately wasn't that great, a bit soggy and soft.

It wasn't amazing, but not bad either. I guess it needs another visit for a more specific veredict...

I'm in London this week visiting my partner who lives there. After the gym, this was one of the few restaurants open at 10:30 p.m. When we entered, we were asked to order quickly because they were scheduled to close in a half hour. We did order quickly. To be fair, I ordered off the menu and asked for noodles, chicken, and vegetables in chicken broth. I got noodles, chicken, and very few vegetables in a brown sauce. It wasn't what I ordered but was decent. The biggest problem was that the appetizer came with a long black hair. The staff quickly whisked it away when this was

We arrived here on a Thursday night with a group of 10 of us having been turned away from the Korean place on the corner nearby. There were only a few tables taken and they quickly made us a large table at the back big enough for 10. Its a nicely decorated place, not tacky and fairly classy.

The menu is fairly standard Thai, with a lot of the usual dishes. I opted for Pandan Chicken to start and Chicken with garlic and black pepper as a main. The food did take a while to arrive and mine was not the hottest I've had. Of the 10 they made a mistake with one of our orders thinking my friend
