Fabulous restaurant and if you’re in the area looking for Asian food I’d highly recommend. The dining area is small with the tables crammed in, so you’ll ideally want to have a reservation, but even without it’s worth the wait. The open kitchen is a delight to watch in action and the effective air-conditioning ensures it isn’t too realistic with an Asian climate! There’s a handful of tables on the pavement outside too.
While the service felt a little slow to start with it was redeemed with a really funny and entertaining member of staff who ended up being proactive and professional for the rest of the visit. There’s a fair selection of wines and of course local Thai beers on the menu.
There’s the perfect amount of options for food, without the menu getting too confusing. The main dishes were served with huge portion sizes and meant we probably shouldn’t have ordered as many starters to share, but given how tasty everything was there were no regrets! The prawn spring rolls had the perfect amount of filling and the dim sum spot on.
We had an amazing evening meal, with the quality of food and staff providing great value for money. I cannot wait to return!
Lovely find! Food was tasty with good sized portions. Staff were friendly and efficient. They were also patient with my parents and children. My dad is a tricky customer and he loved the food, which is a miracle 🤣
A wonderful warm welcome to an authentic restaurant. Freshly cooked to order thai style dishes. The rice and pad Thai were incredible! Starters were also great value. Cannot wait to visit again next time I am in London.
Good Thai food served quickly. Small number of tables and very popular so reservation worth considering. That said tables seem to turn quickly.
LOVE the food here! It’s a cozy cute place with yummy food - almost always full and hard to get a table.
One of my favorites is the Nyonya curry also love the green Thai curry and the starters. Everything I have eaten is pretty top-notch!
Had dinner here for a quick catch-up with a friend. Had my eyes set on the seafood curry laksa and it was great.
I would definitely come back just for this, it was a very heartwarming dish full of flavours and not too spicy either - the portion size is also very generous.
Staff also friendly and quick service during my visit. I did find the environment a bit too loud from general chit chat around the space as everyone is clustered together with not much space between tables.
My fav dish is curry laksa seafood!!!!!
I love eating here for a quick lunch because it’s not too busy in the afternoon.
The waiting is quite long for dinner.
We have tried seafood curry laksa, hainan chicken rice,pad thai, calamari, milk tea and lychee with coconut water.
I storngly recommend the curry laksa!!!
They have a good container for takeaway too. The lady is so nice and very enthusiastic. I often come here for a quick brunch.
I’ve been there a few times and it is now my go-to place for authentic specialties such as as Beef Hor Fun and Hanainese Chicken Rice. The service is good and quick, the place is well decorated, accommodates large groups and has outdoor tables. Unexpectedly, the music is not Asian at all but 80s classics (which is not a bad thing). The only downside is that it is a bit of a victim of its own success and they do run out of the more popular dishes, so go there early if you’re picky (but their other dishes are good too)!
We had Hainan Chicken. It was authentic and tasty. The milk tea was very nice too.
Decent place for lunch - authentic flavours and nice to see the open kitchen concept which gives a ‘street food’ vibe. Beef hor fun is highly recommended and the XLB is not bad for outside of Soho.
Loved this place! Met up a friend here and had hainan chicken rice and nasi goreng! If you like less spicy food then choose hainan, if you like it a little more spicy (not indian level spicy) then choose nasi goreng. I loved both! Also liked sitting beside the window and enjoyed the view. The only reason I reduced a star is because it messed up my stomach the next day but it happens when I eat asian so maybe it is some ingredient that reacts for me. Also another reason is there was no separate seating for the 2 of us to sit, we had to share the long table with other people. But good thing is the service and seating was fast.
Came here for lunch on a Sunday and it was fairly busy but food came out quite quick. Portions are ok for the price. The two chili spicy meals are not that spicy at all.
The Hainan chicken rice was a little on the ginger side but, still edible.
The sambal udang sauce could of been a bit more on the thicker side so could stick more to the protein.
The wife had prawn pad thai didn't take a picture but, she said it was good and a decent amount.
Crispy squid came out hot, crispy was left with the urge of ordering another as they were quite small. Overall good first experience at this restaurant and can see us coming back again
The waitress was so nice to our two kiddies letting them try some coconut & lychee juice and then after they ate gave them a chocolate. Little things like that go a long way.
Great work Ekachai!!!
It was amazing experience. There green Thai curry was good and must try Singapore Noodles. It was delicious
I had the seafood laksa while my sister had the hainan chicken both dishes were amazing both dishes were filling and the place wasn’t too busy which meant we didn’t have to wait too long to get our food. I really enjoyed the laksa it’s such a huge portion you need to be very hungry to finish it or you could share it.
Food was really good. Serving sizes were massive. The price was just right. And the staff were friendly. My friends and I were full to the brim afterwards. Will definitely come back.
Me and my partner had hainan chicken rice and xiao long bao bun and nasi goreng rice dish. The service was nice and pleasant it's my 2nd time to this branch of ekachai the staff here are friend. The delivery of the dishes to tables is fast and efficient. Like the kitchen is open and we can see what is going on.
