Reviews The Hungry Buddha

Food is delicious but delivery was in plastic containers which is mishappen because food was too hot for the plastic containers. Don’t know if it’s save to eat food from plastic containers that has warp due up high temperature of its content, could some of the plastic melt and leach into the food? Will I get cancer or health issues later? It’s a dilemma, but the food is delicious so I decided to consume it anyway.

Had the chilli basil fried rice with tofu - was delicious - good spice, could have used a little more veg and tofu but still highly recommend:)

Really great food. Ordered for the fourth time earlier today and received the food which I knew wasn't up to their usual standard. I called the restaurant about it and the manager kindly offered a replacement which was very tasty. Will definitely order again. One of the best Thai places around.

Can’t fault. This is top quality stuff. Each item individually labelled and packaged well. The flavours in each dish are absolutely divine. And not heavily over priced either.

Ordered a bunch of thai dishes on uber eats. It’s strange, that judging by other reviews here it seems as if they also sell japanese foods, yet it was presented solely as a thai restaurant on the app. Anyway, it was pretty good. Ordered a meal deal for two that consisted of two starters, two entrees and two sides: chicken satay, spring rolls, massaman curry lamb, chicken pad thai, jasmine and chicken fried rices. Only reasons I don’t give 5 stars are that they sent three different sauces and none was hot. At all. The pad thai was pretty good but it felt a little bland. I’m a pretty hot eater but I’m trying to keep it neutral. Pretty decent meal overall; recommended but ask for some hot sauce if you’re like me!

I'm from India and live in London. By relegion, I'm vegetarian. However, chicken is the only exception I make, especially when I travel on work (and no, four leaves with some carrots and cucumber don't sum up a vegetarian meal from where I come from!). My initial exposure to Thai food have been in (upscale) Thai restaurants in India. Each one of them was great but I guess the taste was modified a bit to suit the Indian palate. However, when I moved to UK and tried a few Thai restaurants in UK and W.Europe, I was just appalled. The taste was nothing close to what I had eaten before, not even remotely in the vicinity of being close to what I was expecting. Almost every dish had a 'fishy' smell to it (I guess they used fish oil for everything) and there was no other taste except salt, mostly. So with this experience, I was a friend's house last weekend (27-Nov-16), and he ordered for some Thai food for all of us from Hungry Buddha (via the HungryHouse app). Without too much expectations, I ordered for some Chicken Satay and Chicken Red Curry (sort of my staple order when it comes to Thai food). Firstly, the delivery was quick, 30 mins. Also, I was just blown away by how tasty the food was (and this was without giving any instructions to the chef, etc etc, just via the app). The chicken was succulent with no nasty after taste, and the curry was just brilliant. My wife and my friends still can't believe how much I liked the food, they still think I'm being sarcastic since they know I don't prefer Thai for the aforementioned reasons. Anyway, the food was excellent, thats what matters. I haven't been to the restaurant but I do look forward to visiting them or at least ordering from them again soon.
