For good quality and authentic Thai food, Thai Square is a safe bet. I blame my upbringing in the Far East for my weakness for any cuisine from South East Asia!
We ordered lots of dishes to share between the six of us because food envy sucks, and besides I love sharing food out over the dinner table- plates going back and forth over the table, rogue forks picking up one more morsel…it’s the good kind of chaos. So with 6 people sharing, there were a lot of starters to be had. We had the soft shell crab with mango salad, grilled king prawns and scallops, and fried golden sacks filled with minced prawn and chicken.
The have a fun cocktail list, served in huge glasses. Mekhong Iced Teas and Sex in the Jungles were drunk- mine looked and tasted like a melted ice lolly,
The rest of of our meal arrived soon after. We ordered some coconut rice, lamb shank Mussaman curry, spinach with ginger and garlic, duck with tamarind sauce and grilled pineapple, black cod with sweet chilli sauce, and a bowl of delicious Pad Siew noodles.
We ordered a classic Thai dessert- mango with sticky rice! Slices of Thai mango with coconut cream drizzled lightly on top, over a bed of sticky, pandan flavoured rice. Thai Square use pandan leaves to colour and flavour the rice for this dish to put their own tasty little spin on it. We followed it up with Coconut ice cream with sweetened slivers of pineapple, papaya and sticky rice, sprinkled with crushed palm seeds and cashew nuts. Then as all good things come in threes, we had a mango and coconut ice cream pudding with strawberries. I rarely use the word but I feel it deserves to be used here, dessert was EPIC.
With branches all over London, a visit to your nearest one will do you a world of good!
Good food, reasonable price, prompt service (even for a group), pleasant ambience. This restaurant offers much more authentic Thai flavours than many in London.

Conveniently located.
A good and comfortably priced place for a large group of friends (we were about 12 - spending about £23 per person).
The food is quite sumptuous and of sufficient quantity.
Personally....I had the Tom Yum Soup (delicious), Golden Sacks (lovely blend of chicken and prawns) and Pad See Ew (really incredible).
My friends also loved the Chicken Satay and the Green Curry with Plain Steamed Rice.
The ambiance is quite pleasant.
Staff is quite efficient and helpful.
Overall good service, definitely worth visiting a second time!! :D
