Party of 6 which included 2 vegans and 1 vegetarian and everyone had a brilliant meal! We pre-booked as we are a large party and were the only ones in the restaurant! So we had the lovely big sharing table. The staff were friendly and helpful with the menu. The food was brilliant! I especially loved the vegan corn ribs and golden tofu starters! Would recommend and would go back if ever in the area again.
An amazing little find in Truro. We were welcomed by John and Michelle in such a lovely atmosphere. They were super chatty with us, which begs to question where the other reviews come from. We were laughing and sharing stories about travelling the entire meal. The food was incredibly reasonably priced and came out piping hot, and fresh. The Pad Thai was probably one of the best I’ve eaten. We also got the mango sticky rice, which was lovely. All that for barely £20pp, which was a steal. John and Michelle are an amazing couple who really care about this place, and you can tell. All their tips go to an animal charity, which makes the place even nicer.
Definitely make it a visit for dinner if you’re around Truro!
The ambience and staff behaviour at Mai Thai were wonderful. The food was pretty authentic, hot, and super delicious. It was a pleasant surprise to find Singha Beer there along with the great green curry. We were a group of 13 and made loads of requests. However everything was catered to and we all had a great experience. Would love to go back there again!!
Arrived at 1715 on a Wednesday to get a takeaway, couldn't park outside road was full, found a parking space 5 mins away walked to the restaurant and it was closed.
Did come back another day when you were open and got a great takeaway and managed to park right outside, I know now google are a pain if you try to change the opening times.
Yummy hot food, we got satay chicken with pad tai and green curry.
The staff were very lovely! Especially the gentlemen!!
They let us wait in the warmth which was very sweet of them!
Tried to go on a Thursday night, unfortunately didn’t book a table and was advise the wait for food would be long, we decided to skip . Went back on the Friday with a booked table, had the Thai sticky pork balls and the pad gra prao(extra spicy) and some beers, service was good, didn’t wait long for our food, had a good conversation with the owner and really enjoyed the experience, will recommend.
Hands down one of the best Thai places I've been to in the UK. Food was brilliant! Folks were lovely, atmosphere was spot on for a Chiang Mai feel minus the anxiety of living in Chiang Mai. All in Truro!
What we had:
Deep fried Golden Tofu
Spicy Deep Fried Wings
Prawn Kai Pad Kheng (Ginger & Red Chilling)
Vegetable Thai Red Curry
All came promptly. Just reminded me of being in Thailand again. Would thoroughly recommend it for anyone looking for a good eat. Thursday was their quiet day before the weekend rush. Do make sure you book so you don't miss out.
Was also looking forward to the dessert but they make it fresh on the day so they only have a set batch to make depending on their days. Another reason to book.
I’m Thai and I can tell this Thai food taste very Thai so the chef she know how, I’m very impressed about it. The restaurant have very nice sense like thailand and very welcoming atmosphere. Definitely will comeback again❤️
Visited this absolute gem for dinner last night with my mum and we weren't disappointed. The place looks amazing, the food is authentic, delicious Thai food at its best and the service was wonderfully friendly. If you're in Truro and you love Thai food you simply have to visit this place.
Small and cosy Thai restaurant. Quirky decor.
Good mixed starter of Thai fish cakes, spring rolls and satay chicken. All very good. My main was Pad Thai noodles. Really good and a generous portion.
My wife had the chicken masaman curry also excellent. Overall a good meal, a bit pricey maybe but times are hard!
lovely quirky restaurant and gorgeous food
Came on a recomendation from a friend who recently visitited for their birthday and wasnt disappointed 😃 enjoyed ourselves here!
Could tell the food was fresh and cooked to order unlike many places you go these days. The portion size is generous, the atmosphere is amazing, very relaxing easy going feel to the place. The decor takes me back on my travels to Asia.
Good value for money with a good choice of foods. One of our group (10 of us) was vegan, she didnt feel left out at all and accommodated her well, with substitutes on hand to switch up dishes, nice touch guys! 👍
Oh my god, try the mai Tai cocktail its delicious!
Only down side was staffing levels but that's the same everywhere these days so can't really fault them for that, they do have signs up like many do asking for staff to apply.
Will 100% return very soon
A hidden gem
Very friendly service and very good Thai food that is reasonably priced
Tucked away in a blink and you'll miss it corner of Truro, Mai Thai is an experience not to be missed. You enter via a corridor of paper lanterns into a small, but adequately spaced restaurant. The decor is best described as kitsch, the music was a local radio station and the ambience was therefore interesting. But it was quirky and made me smile. Short staffed but still brilliant service and the wait time was very short. I didn't really know what to expect from the food. The menu was simple but authentic. The beer was good. But the food was amazing. Tasty, perfectly cooked, tender meat and dishes packed with Thai flavours. Plenty of vegetarian options as well. Really surprisingly good for such a humble place. Utterly lacking in pretension, I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at Mai Thai and will definitely return.
We had a lunchtime meal yesterday which was full of flavour and really authentic. The atmosphere was very good and the staff very friendly and chatty, but not forceful. We try to eat at Mai Thai when in Truro and in my mind has made an extremely successful replacement for previous Thai restaurants, in fact better than the others. It is definitely our “Go To” place for Thai food. Keep it up guys and stay nice.
Delicious food! (we had the beef stir fry with thai basil, the green curry, coconut rice, and to start sticky pork balls and thai fish cakes). The stir fry was especially tasty. Great washed down with a cool beer. Friendly service and the way they've decorated is so lovely. We'll definitely be coming back!
