siamsmile in Bristol, City of

We ordered a take away from here, it arrived cold, bland, tiny portions and full of inedible frozen vegetables. We were expecting bold flavours and textures instead we got bland stodge. It was incredibly expensive, we will not be ordering from here again.

The best Thai food I’ve ever eaten. My favourite restaurant in Bristol. Nothing else ever really cuts it in comparison for me. Staff are so nice. Highly recommend to dine in and take away. Amazing.

Small, simple place serving decent (but not exceptional) Thai and Malay dishes. The menu's descriptions sounded a bit more interesting than our food turned out to be. It was OK, just not very memorable. Service was a bit variable on a busy Friday night but alright overall.

Hate to leave a negative review…..but, this was a Sunday takeaway collection, for beef red curry, egg fried rice, pad Thai and some corn cakes. The food was awful. Could make a better red curry myself, the pad Thai was bland stodge. Th egg fried rice looked completely un appetizing. It was a Sunday so may be it was the chefs night off. We will not be returning. Expensive for the portion sizes too.

Noisy, more like a waiting area than a restaurant! I booked a table but was not told it was a busy takeaway with scant organisation - delivery drivers and people queuing haphazardly. Gave up and asked for our food to go. Left after 30 minutes. The food was awful, smelt like it had been cooked in a drain - went straight in the recycling bin. Will not be returning any time soon.

Ordered from here and it was absolutely delicious and perfect! I recommend people to go here, very delicious food.

I order a chicken tom yum,Beautifull!!!Best food i have tried in a long time. All the flavours woooow

Have moved to the area at the end of 2019 and have finally ordered from here. Being a big lover of Thai food it was lovely to have a place so close to us and with excellent ratings and it lived up to those too! We ordered two lots of rice, two chicken dishes (cashews and a chilli and basil one) and some veggie spring rolls. Sadly we ended up getting two lots of the cashew dish but it wasn’t a big issue, these things happen now and again. The food was amazing! We will 100% be ordering from them again. Also really friendly staff and an encoring atmosphere.

We ordered take out from here, not for the first time, and were not disappointed. We had satay chicken skewers to start followed by the chicken Pad Thai and a Massaman curry with coconut rice. The pad thai was very good but the Massaman is the best I've had outside of Thailand. It's not the cheapest Thai around but it's certainly worth paying a little more. We highly recommend!

Best Thai by far! Good honest hearty food! The only problem is everything on the menu is so delicious, we spend a small fortune. Highly recommend, don’t visit Cheltenham without visiting Siam Smile.

Me and a friend paid £35 (not including delivery) for this takeaway, we got the sharing starter (£15) and the lamb yang (£17) and steamed fragrant rice (£2.90). The starters were obviously bought in frozen and all completely overcooked, the lamb was a single (tiny) steak which had been sliced up, bearing in mind it was £17 the only other thing with it was some lettuce and a small pot of poor dressing. No marinade, no seasoning, nothing. Massively overpriced, hugely disappointing and probably the worst takeaway I’ve ever had. DO NOT DO IT. Siam smile? More like Siam frown.

After having plenty of awesome meals and takeaways, oh what a disappointment! Friday night takeaway - bland, uninspired, plain - new chef ??? The Prawn Green Curry was liquid with a few naff vegetables, 5 overdone prawns and no real taste. Everyone else was similarly disappointed - AVOID FRIDAYS! Plenty more Thai in Brizzle - up the Gloucester Road next time!! Only gave it a 3 because it used to be awesome!

This is local to us so have been eating in and taking away for the past 8 years. We have never had a bad meal, staff are great, food is great and we love a takeaway from here as it's different and better to your standard takeaway options. My only advice to offer would be menu variety. After 8 years a change would be very good. Even it if was a swap around with the starters.

Plenty to choose from ,good quality and great value.super friendly service.Don’t expect great sophistication but there is a certain charm in the simplicity of the place.I would happily return

Having visited Thailand 6 times, I believe Asian Smile serves the best food I’ve tasted outside of Thailand. I have eaten here for a number of years and have never been disappointed. Staff are really friendly and food is excellent.

Hidden gem- the ladies serving us were friendly and attentive, food was delicious (had prawn in filo pastry and prawn toast to start, and pad Thai and red curry with duck for main). Beers a tad expensive.

we managed to book an 8pm table night before - and it was full when we got there.this is an intimate and seemingly family run restaurant (if im wrong they sure run it like one)- prompt but not intrusive service. a bowl of crackers on the table when they sat us down and quick to offer a drink. we jumped in and ordered 1 rice 1 noodles and 2 mains - all of it was gorgeous. My partner literally stopped me from licking the bowls and plates clean...... £20 a head with 1 drink each was far too cheap for such delicious food .... its our go to thai from here on in

Nice food, good choices. Very tasty. Went for a lamb curry. Many vegetarian options. Classic beers and Thai/Malaysian wines! Service perfect, quick, nice. Highly recommended

Este es uno de esos lugares que hemos pasado tantas veces en el camino de entrada y salida de Bristol y que había querido probar. Muy contento de que finalmente lo hicimos! La comida es realmente deliciosa, el personal es amable pero muy eficiente y su precio es muy razonable. ¡Volveremos! ¡Gracias!

Wow... Stunning food.. Personal service what more can you ask? Intimate settings and a gorgeous meal. Best Thai in Bristol in my opjjokn. The sizzling steak with side of bwatifully cooked noodles. Heaven on a plate

Friendly place with tasty, proper Thai food. Tom yum soup was especially good as were the stuffed chicken wings as pictured. Will return soon to hit the curries

Mi esposa y yo decidimos comer aquí en una noche al azar y llamamos para reservar. Solo quedaba una mesa el jueves a las 7 de la tarde. 15 . A su llegada estaba lleno, es un pequeño y acogedor restaurante. Solo había dos damas corriendo todo el restaurante, una cocinando y una sirviendo. El servicio fue brillante y muy personal. No tuvimos que esperar demasiado tiempo para nuestra comida a pesar de estar ocupado y la comida era impresionante. Tuvimos una botella de vino con nuestra comida y la factura era muy buena considerando lo que teníamos. Recomendaría este restaurante como un gran lugar para comer, servicio muy amable y bien vale la pena una visita. La decoración es un poco anticuada, pero al final del día se trata de la comida y la experiencia del servicio. Entre nosotros y la mesa de al lado dejamos más de 10 en propinas.

Have been meaning to go here for a while, so glad I finally went. It’s incredible! My partner and I ordered the set menu for 2 and it was so worth it believe it was around £30? Lovely setting and staff, alcoholic drinks a tad expensive. Can’t wait to return

Thought we'd try a take-away this time. Same great choice, prepared quickly, but freshly cooked! Very authentic!

A lovely little family run restaurant which has a great range of dishes from different parts of south east Asia. We have been back again and again as they have such a wide-ranging menu and it has never disappointed.

A small homely little restaurant serving very good food by very welcoming staff. Could not fault anything it was a great experience and will definitely be back.

Love this place! The food is amazing and the family that run it are lovely. Brilliant for a sit down meal or takeaway. Never had a bad experience here!

Me encanta este restaurante. La comida es absolutamente deliciosa en cada ocasión que he estado. El llevar es igual de lindo y normalmente me quedo en la cocina comiendo antes de que pueda llegar al plato. ! El servicio es genial, el personal es muy amable y acogedor. ¡Mi restaurante tailandés favorito en Bristol sin lugar a dudas!

Wow! Amazing food, great staff and wonderful atmosphere. The service was impeccable, I couldn’t ask for anything else to make my evening more great. I will definitely be back!

Always Enjoy our food here, great food reasonably priced, quick and pleasant service. Not a fancy restaurant but all the better for it in my opinion.

Had the mussels stater spicy and packed with taste. Main course was Pad Thai. Plenty of options for vegetarians.

Guau, esta es una pequeña joya y vale la pena una visita, si te encanta la comida tailandesa y malaya.

This is one of the best Thai meals I've had. It's always the small hidden gems that will surprise you. It's my second time here and I look forward to my third visit.

Great food and lovely staff. We had our food to take away as we live not far but the food stayed super hot even when it was freezing outside and so tasty! The decor could do with a slight refresh but food is great!

Best Thai I've had outside of Thailand! The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was really tasty

Came here for a birthday meal for with about 13 of us. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was really tasty and reasonably priced.

.....or certainly in the St George/Fishponds/Kingswood/Mangotsfield/Downend/Frenchay area. Had several delicious meals here now, my favourite dishes being Larb Kai and Weeping Tiger, both are absolutely outstanding. Friendly staff and a nice cosy atmosphere.

We love Thai, but hadn't spotted this place (tucked away on the A420 going out of Bristol). Thought we'd give it a try - blown away; the food was awesome - great mixed starter, great green curry!

We have just visited on a Tuesday and luckily booked for 6pm because by the time we left at 8pm every table was gone and a constant flow of takeaway collections. This is brilliant to see! Good on you guys!

I absolutely love this place. It’s not often we get takeaway, but if we do, Siam Smile is our favourite.

Not sure whether we got a bad batch of food but wasn't very impressed. I'd like to think my Mrs...

Friends of ours recommended the Siam Smile and it's a recommendation well made. The food was full of flavour and...

Had a lovely meal of starters and main, prawns in filo party and prawn toast followed by Lamb Massaman Curry and Tilapia Curry. The place is always busy with takeaways and covers so you wait a little bit for your main but it's worth it for the food. A real taste of Thailand

Me gusta mucho este restaurante tailandés. No es sólo uno de los mejores en Bristol, es comida puede competir en cualquier lugar.

Sólo tenía el pollo al curry de Malasia. Impresionante. La carne se caían a pedazos. Cocinado a la perfección. Me encanta este pequeño lugar.

Siam Smile is a very small unassuming place. I live a 2 minute walk away and have driven past it literally 100's of times and never knew it was there. What a discovery! it's a very authentic restaurant and the food as brilliant. I had the Thai Green Curry and I will be back to work my way through the menu!!

Just 1 minute up from Church Road, Redfield and this little gem is there to find. Fantastic authentic food with excellent service. 100% will be going back.

Since moving to Bristol we have struggled to find a decent Thai restaurant in town. This was well reviewed on TripAdvisor so we decided to give it a shot, despite its slightly out of town location - it's actually nearer us and on a bus route and spitting distance from a good pub! Booked a table and glad we did as it got busy (Friday night). We both really enjoyed our food. I had the steamed dumplings and then the Thai red curry with coconut rice and both were delicious. My husband had soup and then the Malaysian curry and also really enjoyed his. The staff were polite and service was good. My only comments would be that food didn't all come out at once and it was a little on the pricier side but I really enjoyed it and would definitely return. A really nice little Thai.

Went on a Saturday lunchtime and surprisingly we were the only people in there. Service was not particularly welcoming or attentive, even though the place was empty, it lacked atmosphere. We had the £6.95 set menu. Food took a long time to arrive as everything was on one plate - starters, mains and rice. Vegetable tempura consisted mainly of onion rings. Bizarre! Green curry was ok though. This place has the potential to be better - more smiles and some friendly chit-chat would go a long way.

Which is quite a statement I realise, but it's true. It's a family run business which is nice, and the food is absolutely amazing. I'd recommend the fish cakes, the corn cakes, lamb massaman and the green curry, but we've had other things here too and they've all been great. My family keep driving up from 20 miles away because they like it so much!

If this restaurant were in the city centre, it would probably be a lot busier, because the quality of the food and service is really good. Most people just haven't found their way up Church Road to find Siam Smile, which is good for those of us who can pop in without booking. We go quite frequently and are never disappointed.

Our favourite Thai restaurant. Great food and service. We've noticed it getting busier recently, which is to be welcomed. But even when it's quiet the food is great. Well worth the walk out of the Redfield strip towards St George Library to get there.

Eat in or take away, Siam Smile's food is always excellent. I love this place. The red and green curries are immense, probably the best i've ever tasted.

Siam Smile offer quite a good range of dishes for veggies / vegans with dishes served with a delicious range of vegetables.Good size portions and reasonably priced.The only criticism I have is that I think they microwave the tofu which makes it really rubbery, I wish that they would cook the tofu fresh as it makes such a difference!

The thai food it's .ok, very well presented, the staff are friendly, but didn't impressed me, but all the thai food in Bristol, this one was the best

After reading the reviews we decided to visit and we were not disappointed. The food quality was very good and the portions were just right. We will definitely return and also use the takeaway service.

We had a family party here last week and I can't praise them enough. They really helpful and the food was delicious. If I had a slight niggle it would be that the last few mains where a little bit behind the first ones, but the where a lot of us.

Eat in or takeaway as I live locally. Alway excellent. Always friendly. Rarely as busy as it should be so never book.

The headline says it all really. My wife and I have eaten there twice now, most recently to celebrate our fourth anniversary. On both occasions we were warmly received, and attentively catered to. The food is delicious (particularly enjoyed the Tom Yum Soup), and pretty reasonably priced. This may just become our local special occasion restaurant.Sidenote, they've got enormous goldfish too.

Had a takeaway from here recently, having previously eaten in the restaurant, the quality of both was fantastic, and the staff are so very warm and welcoming, thankyou :)

Absolutely beautiful. Just home from a casual dinner with a friend and this was beautiful. Quick and friendly service and very very tasty food. Will definitely be back.

I visited Siamsmile with friends who were visiting from Ross On Wye. Following a long work day I decided to take them out for something different and a place you could walk past and not know its there. Hidden in a rank of shops is Siamsmile on Church Road between Redfield and St George. As we entered the restaurant it was quiet so we did manage to get a nice table. We ordered satay chicken and tempura oak for starters and Massaman lamb curry along with Thai Green chicken curry with coconut rice. The food arrived and my friends were very surprised at the quality and taste of the starters. Well prepared and presented. The plates were finished off quickly and as we waited for our main courses to arrive we asked for any additional drinks and to see if everything was okay - a nice personal touch. The mains arrived and again the food was exquisite. Restaurant quality food but at take away prices. All plates were virtually licked clean. I can highly recommend Siamsmile and I know you won't be disappointed.

We have eaten here many times both alone& with friends many times & the food is consistently very authentic and tasty and the staff & atmosphere pleasant - good takeaways too.

We often go here as:1. It's local 2. The food is great3. The staff are really friendly 4. We love Thai food!!I would happily recommend Siam smile!!

Have lived a stones throw from here for over two years however after reading the great reviews decided to try it.... What can i say we weren't let down ! We had a take away and ordered the ribs, filo prawns and chicken sticks to start. For main the red beef Thai curry and massaman lamb curry with rices. I really enjoyed mine and my partner wished he had ordered the red Thai beef curry as well (he makes a massaman curry at home and felt, although this was was good it wasn't better than his) we will definitely return as this is the best Thai take out we have had in Bristol !

After a few great recommendations from various people we decided we needed to try siam smile as its just round the corner from our house. Lovely little place, very cosy but light and airy. The food was to die for. The main highlight for me was the chicken Massaman with coconut rice based on a friends recommendation and it was 10 out of 10. The entire menu was very reasonably priced including the drinks. I will be eating here regularly from this day onwards.

I visit this restaurant often - the only restaurant I visit often actually. Remarkable service, great menu- a bargain can be found at lunch times with the express menu or you can use from the normal menu/ dinner menu, too. I have never been disappointed here; my top 3 dishes are:1. Tom yam with mixed sea food2. Tom kha with prawns3. Roasted duck breasts on green leavesHighly recommended place! I always bring my friends here. :)

Went here for the first time and had a lovely meal. The food was excellent, wounderfull flavours , beautifully cooked, fresh vegetables in my vegetarian green Tai curry. Definitely want to go back again.

Consistently great food and great service. I keep coming back it's one of my favourite restaurants. Can't recommend highly enough

We have been here a number of times now and each time it has been fantastic!Would highly recommend. It's our goto Thai place.

My daughter lives very close to this delightful restaurant and it is a family fave. Good service from nice people and fresh food always hot and tasty. Small but clean premises. A little piece of lovely Thailand in st george. I love it.

Really sweet little place, staff were genuine and lovely, and were unobtrusive. The food was cracking- delicious and tasty. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent food & service. We cant work out why we haven't come here before, we definitely will return.

Very friendly staff who were happy to help. I had the veggie pad thai which was OK, nothing special but the vegetable tempura was amazing, best I have ever eaten, a huge portion too. I'll go back just for that.

The staff here are very friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. I am so pleased to have such a great restaurant in the BS5 area. The Red curry is wonderful! The restaurant is cosy but not cramped at all. Absolutely worth many visits!

Been to Thailand a few times and the food here is just as good. The red curry is amazing.I only ever order a takeaway, never dined in the restaurant. I will travel 6 miles to this restaurant for food as its that good.Friendly and polite service, highly recommended

I've had food from Siam Smile quite a number of times, both in the restaurant and as takeaway. I never feel the need to go into the city for Thai as this is such a great little restaurant right on my doorstop.The food is tasty and authentic and the staff are always polite and friendly.I went again on Saturday night and there was a nice buzz in the restaurant as it can sometimes be a bit quiet. I had the lamb massamam curry with steamed rice yhis time which was delicious and had lots of meat.I'd recommend that anyone local to St George and the surrounding area tries out this restaurant if you haven't already.

I've been on a mission to find Bristol's best Thai this Summer and am thrilled to inform you that this humble restaurant in St.George runs away with the honours. It's the real McCoy: deliciously authentic, thoughtfully prepared Thai cuisine that is a great credit to its home country's culinary heritage. It saddens me to think that Thai restaurants such as those in Clifton serving average big city Thai chain fair heave with customers while the true flavour experience is to be had several miles east and somewhere far less obvious. So I urge you to help me put amends to that and get on you bike /train/bus, or car to SiamSmile. Bristol finally has the Thai restaurant it deserves. And don't worry about remembering the route. You'll know it by heart in months because if you like SE Asian food you'll be returning to it a lot.

We ordered a good selection of dishes such as the mixed starters, chicken dishes, beef dishes, rices and noodles. Most of it was very enjoyable, I particularly enjoyed the nasi goreng but I wasn't keen on the spare ribs. I would return if in the area again, but it's not quite the same standard as Simply Thai in Midsomer Norton.

We moved to this area 8 months ago and had been meaning to try out this restaurant for ages, well last night we went for the first time. What a delight - the service was quiet and attentive and the food - well it was absolutely top notch, so so tasty. Really this was a delight and even though we only had one of their set menus every single dish was super.This is fantastic little restaurant where you can go and see the staff working hard at the back of the restaurant to make a good range of Thai dishes. They do take -always as well. No it was not cheap, but by golly it was really tasty so much I've taken the time to write this review as they deserve it for making a charming evening for us.

Went with a local friend who recommended it for a fairly quick meal on a quiet Tuesday evening.Short menu but enough variety to tempt me. Really enjoyed the jungle curry and rice. My friend has been many times and says the food is consistently good.Would definitely go again if I find myself in this part of Bristol.

Noticed the SiamSmile for the first time whilst driving though Bristol on the way home tonight and as I live the other side of St George's park from this small restaurant thought we would take a walk in the sun through the park and pop in for a quick bite to eat - not really expecting much.After a pleasant walk walked in to be greeted by a very polite lady who escorted us to our seats, free prawn crackers and got us our drinks ( a fair choice available). Looking at the menu there is quite a choice of Thai food of which I am no expert so I went for the Thais Fish Cakes as a starter and a Thai Spicy curry with chicken and egg fried rice. Absolutely gorgeous!!!! As I said I'm no expert but over the next year I will be working my way through the menu to become one!!!!Nice atmosphere, pleasant decor, great food and service. Highly recommended!!!

This is a great Thai restaurant which for some unknown reason, we haven’t visited in quite a while but were happy to find that it had not changed one bit since our previous visits.The décor is minimalist and it is quite a light, bright restaurant providing a small amount of covers which allows it to maintain its high standard of cuisine and which affords the diner the luxury of being able to hold a conversation with your party and hear and be heard.Unable to choose from the varied and vast menu, we went for the easy option, the set menu, the Chaopraya River, this set choice offers an excellent selection of traditional and authentic Thai dishes which was, from the mixed starters through to the delicious (and spicy) soup to the variety of meat, fish and vegetable mains, a menu that was well balanced (with the right amount of seasoning and spice) and each dish complemented the other perfectly.The set menu is a rather large menu for 2 persons and we did find ourselves struggling by the main course dishes but this is not a problem as they are more than happy to bag up your leftovers and we enjoyed it as much the following day.The restaurant was fairly quiet when we dined but we were the first through the door on the that evening (on opening) and I am in no doubt that, having been around as long as they have, they would have picked up and packed out later.This is a very good Thai experience with excellent quality food at very reasonable prices.General service and table service is very good and food service prompt.The wine list was small but, like the food, very reasonably priced and overall this was an excellent meal and well worth a visit. Hopefully, we will not be leaving such a long interval before our next visit and we are looking forward to a return visit.

What a very pleasant surprise finding this lovely Thai restaurant tucked in the suburbs of Bristol.I phoned and reserved a table and I'm glad that I did as it was busy .The Thai staff are lovely and chatted with us about their beautiful country of birth. The starters mains and drinks arrived and tasted great. Will visit again next time we are in St George's

A friend suggested I try this place and I am so pleased I did. Staff were very welcoming,the decor is simple but clean. The food was truly delicious. Will return

This is my second (or maybe third) review on this place over the past few years. I like it here...it's very unfussy.....the service is always friendly.....and the food is bloody delicious. Yes there are more fancy places that you can go.....but here the food talks over the décor.

This is my "local" Thai restaurant .....and it has to be said that the food is not only delicious....but authentic too! I have eaten here many times.....both in the restaurant and also take away. Can't wait to go again!

Hi I love Thai food and so have high expectations. I had take away with my brother who loves this restaurant. We had the MIXED STARTER Included : Pork Ribs, Thai fish cakes, spring rolls, Sesame Prawn on toasts and Mee Krob. Which was Ok but as it was take away could have been hotter ( temperature wise) and wasn't that crispy. fish cakes were spicy which was nice. I don't think the Mee krob is for me but my brother ate it all. I also had the TOM KHA - Chicken which was really nice - again could have been warmer, I should have put in the overn to make nice and hot. for the main I went for the: GHOONG PAOW (Grilled large fresh water Prawn, served with spicy green sauce). Which was again well cooked but the sauce in my view was hot - it seems to have a not heat rating.The price was also £29 which is quite pricey compared to an Indian.Would I order again - yes but would probably go Thai green curry and single starter.

Have eaten from this restaurant several times and have never had anything bad to say! The food is delicious and never disappoints. I would definitely say this is one of the best Thai/Malaysian restaurants I've eaten in, and one of the nicest restaurants in Bristol. I will continue to return to this little hidden gem for a long time.

Found this on trip advisor but walking towards it wondered if we had done the right thing. However it was lovely. The waitress was efficient and charming and food wonderful. Portions were large and well presented. The menu was limited in choice but then it was a small place but overall fab night with great food and great service.

wonderful restaurant that i couldn't believe was only half full on a Saturday night. Food was simple and that is meant as a compliment. Nothing flash just tasty. I had the jungle curry and my wife had the sea bass. Definitely value for money and will be back.

Just ate here and omg it was amazing!!! I struggle to find a decent Thai green curry anywhere! There is usually always something wrong, no taste, too thick, too oily! But this place served it perfectly!!! The peanut dipping sauce with the skewers was lovely but I wanted more! Next time I will be asking for more! Can't wait to go back! This place is a must for spicy food lovers!!!! Enjoy!!!!!!

My partner and I thought that we'd give the Siam Smile a try one mid week evening. Truly lovely fresh food beautifully presented with Thai plate decorations. Friendly laid back atmosphere. Reasonably priced food.

A good choice of food, very tasty and excellent friendly service. We have been meaning to visit this restaurant for a while and we were not disappointed. Give it a try and support a local restaurant !

Just had Thai from this place for the third time. I must say it is the best Thai I have had in Bristol. It's so authentic, friends of ours who went to Thailand on honeymoon said they had the most authentic Thai food they've tasted in Bristol too! Would highly recommend them. The sticky rice is always amazing and all their food tastes very fresh! The only downside is they don't deliver. Otherwise, my favourite!

The food here is awesome, authentic, fresh and super-tasty: and a nice broad range with some unusual choices. The staff are just a delight, we never leave this place (and we go OFTEN!) feeling anything less than 100% happy. We've been to most (probably all!) of the Thai restaurants in Bristol, and nothing comes close to this one.

Most of the nicer sit-down restaurants in Bristol are downtown or in Clifton, but Siam Smile in St George is well worth the visit for anyone who likes Thai. Although there never seem to be many patrons, when I went recently the prawns and tilapia were very fresh, and both were excellent. My only complaint is that all the appetizers tend toward the deep-fried end of the spectrum. I'd like to see some green papaya salad, or something a little lighter.

I discovered this little gem by accident and as I love Thai food decided to give it a go about 2 years ago and have been a regular visitor ever since even though its not on my doorstep. Its an unpretentious little restaurant but the service is great and the Thai food in my opinion is some of the best in Bristol. The food is consistently fresh and tasty and you can ask for the level of spicyness that suits you.Unlike alot of Thai restaurants the food is not toned down and made bland to suit British tastes. Another plus is the food is actually cooked by Thai s (rather than by Chinese) which ensures the food is authentic. Dont be put off by the basic look of the restaurant as the food will not disappoint! My only small complaint is the lack of much choice of wine which is the only reason I haven't given it 5 points!
