Agaligo in Havant

I odered a takeaway based on the Google reviews as we are staying locally for a few days. We were told when we ordered that it would be 30-40min wait as they were very busy. For a Tuesday night we thought this sounded promising. We arrived at 40mins to collect our order but was told it wasn't ready. Waited a further 15mins in the restaurant before it was ready. Although they did apologise for the wait it was a bit frustrating. Got back to our accommodation to eat our meal, which was utterly tasteless. We were so disappointed. The Pad Thai had no flavour at all and was extremely bland. The Aromatic Duck starter was cold, and very fatty with hardly any decent meat. We also had a beef salad which had a very weird off smell that made it uneatable. For what we paid, which was almost £40, I would not recommend eating here. I've seen it's under new management so perhaps these positive google reviews were posted before then. Anyway avoid and save your money!

My favourite restaurant on Hayling Island. Super friendly staff & delicious food. Highly recommend!

The food you fwt here is top notch and the staff are so friendly and happy!

Very disappointed won't be going there again. 2024. New Management - What a difference ! Excellent & highly recommended.

Had a great meal here, authentic Thai food with excellent service. Restaurant was hot on a summer’s eve, so maybe get some air con installed for top marks.

Ordered takeaway from Agaligo based upon the very good reviews online. Food itself was very flavoursome but portion size was quite small. Ordered 2 x starters and they were rather expensive for what you got. Tom Yum soup was very tasty but again size was quite small vs. other similar restaurants. Maybe dining in-house is a different experience but takeaway was disappointing.

Excellent seafood dishes, friendly service, good value.

Excellent food and very good/friendly/helpful staff

The food was beautifully presented and was delicious.

Superb food atmosphere and service bit cheeky putting a 20% gratuities on the bill.

Cannot fault this place in any way, food and staff are exceptional, i'd say best restaurant in hayling but to be honest, one of the best restaurants I've ever been to...... And I've been to a few. Defo recommend! ...... Even the toilets are great

The food is absolutely delicious. I've been to a few Thai restaurants in Southsea that have been really good but this is a cut above the rest. The service is outstanding too, which ensures for an amazing evening. I can't get enough of this place. 100% recommend. Oh, and the toilets are lovely and clean too 👌

This Thai restaurant always serves such delicious tasty food. When we come to Hayling Island we always book for an evening here. We have been coming here for about 6 years now and we are never disappointed. Enjoyed the cashew nut salad as a starter ..wow...amazing. Lovely mains with rice and a dessert that we shared. Great friendly service...see you again. Thank you.

Mixed starter poor for £9.50 per head, main courses all fine. Thought the 12.5% service charge added to the bill was hefty. 3.5 stats would be fair

Went there after many years. Don't want to be rude, but the food is inedible. The sea bass was straight out of the freezer and even the waiter apologised. Costs have increased but price points mean they now buy cheaper quality ingredients. I do sympathise, but add a couple of £ to the price; people understand and will pay for quality. Nice staff

Good Thai food. No draught beers though.

I went for a wonderful authentic Thai meal here. The service was excellent and the staff so friendly. I particularly enjoyed the Thai fish cakes and the penang. Excellent standard of delicious Thai food. I will definitely be back.

Takeaway food was excellent as always though the young waiter arrived with his trousers undone and his zip undone exposing way way more that I was expecting to see when ordering food, and gave me some cause for concern when he presented the card machine to pay as to where his hands had been

On a recent trip to Hayling lsland, more a break than a trip . We had the great pleasure of visiting Agaligo , as we have visited Thailand, on a few occasions, we thought it great to indulge in a meal, seeing as how we both love Thai food 💯🙏, we were not disappointed ❤️, food was made to a high standard, & as I am fond of " JUNGLE CURRY ", it was well worth our visit, & on any return to Hayling island, I can assure the staff, we will return , we didn't get the young lady who served us so elegantly, but a big thank you for tacking the time to chat with us, thank you so much. Best of luck to Agaligo 🙏🙏🙏💯❤️

This was such amazing food. My wife and I have both been to Thailand multiple times and its our favourite cuisine so this was a real find. The Tom Yum was the best we have had in the UK and we will definitely be coming back to Hayling Island just to visit here again. The tofu satay was also great. All rhe food was hot, sour and clean. The atmosphere was great and it was obviously popular.

Intimate, authentic, outstanding Great menu choices and good value for money. Fresh food that is out of this world, my favourite part was the Devine desserts.

Fantastic!! The only thing I didn't like was the 12% service charge added!! I would like to have the option to add a Tip, not have it added. I always acknowledge good food and very good service

The best Thai Green Curry I've ever had.

Very good food, the flavours are amazing.

The best Thai takeaway I have ever had, we were visiting from London. Delicious! Would come to the island again just for this food!

Constantly excellent food, the best restaurant on Hayling. The staff are very pleasant at attentive. They always bring iced water. The room is quite long and thin but nicely decorated.

I was very surprised to find the best coconut rice I've ever had that's not in Thailand!!! Very rich, creamy and full of real coconut flavour and fragrance! The curry was delicious and the atmosphere very friendly. We saw a chef come out and show the table next door how he makes the flowers from carrots and displayed his amazing cutting skills! Would love to return but we don't live here. We were visiting Hayling Island with 3 other families, we all loved this place!

Exquisite dishes available with a guaranteed fine quality This establishment is a rare delicacy being perfect in all areas The waiter who served us was incredibly kind and thoughtful The food was delicious Case closed.

Excellent customer service. The person who served us was very kind. The food was excellent, especially the Thai red curry. Will definitely be coming back for more

Tried this place for the first time. Food good but nothing special. Very authentic atmosphere. Pleasant service. Wouldn't rush back here, but worth trying. £115 for 5 mains, 2 starters, bottle red wine (very nice quality wine), malibu and small bottle beer.

Chicken satay was pink unfortunately my partner has a bad stomach today

Really friendly and helpful restaurant. The choice and quality of the food is first class. Would highly recommend if you are a fan of Thai cuisine.

Best thai food and wonderful staff😍

We've been many times, and it's nice to see the recent name change hasn't changed anything else. Perfect for any occasion.

Incredible food and really nice atmosphere.

My favourite restaurant on Hayling Island. High-quality Thai food and friendly staff.

Very good quality food, very well presented. It was only ourselves and a single table of two but the service was very slow.

Had a take away so atmosphere was not an issue. Food was excellent and service superb.

Everything was 5*. Akarat was fab, great customer service. The food and presentation was amazzzzzzzing and delicious.

Delicious food, good service, all lovely and friendly staff.

We stayed at Hayling Island with friends, whilst visiting the nearby Goodwood Revival at Chichester. We hadn’t had Thai food for a while and having read reviews, Agaligo seemed ideal. We went on Saturday 17th September and on arrival it was very busy, which could only be a good sign. We had shared mixed starters plus mains for each of the 4 in our group. Without exception, every item of food was delicious and the service was excellent. We had a bottle of white wine for the two ladies and a bottle of red for the two gents, plus a bottle of Singha beer to whet our appetite. Every thing was thoroughly enjoyable and we liked it so much we booked again for the following evening. We would all recommend this restaurant to all and will no doubt re-visit if in the area again.

Just been here for my partners birthday. Lovely people, really pleasant atmosphere and fabulous food. Prices really reasonable. Our first visit and definitely not our last. Thank you

Very helpful and professional staff food beautifully presented and r tasted even better very reasonable prices too deffinatley a resturaunt to return to.

Wonderful food, good value, great staff, sorry that William our favourite waiter is going off to uni but Joe seems a good replacement.

Great food and the young lad William outstanding waiter

Delicious Thai food. Taste, looks all perfect. No children's menu. A bit expensive.

A very nice restaurant, staff friendly and food of high quality. A enjoyable evening.

Absolutely amazing meal for my partners birthday. Best food i've had in a long time. Great value for money and they even gave my partner a free desert with a stunning 'happy birthday' written in chocolate. We're on holiday and don't normally leave reviews, but this place was well worth it! Thank you!!!

The service and the food is excellent, my first time there and I will be going there again.

Food is fantastic. Service could be a little faster

Food was amazing, staff friendly and attentive, nice relaxed atmosphere. Definitely will be going back.

Lovely friendly restaurant. Food and presentation was amazing. A hidden gem on Hayling. We will be back again!

Food was lovely, fast to correct mistakes, but they don't rush people. It mKes for a lovely night out.

Food was very tasty. They don't rush you out of the door which is very nice.

Cosy restaurant with nice interior, good food, good price and great service - especially William. Also open until late thankfully

Had my birthday dinner here earlier this week on a weekday. Service was great and food was scrumptious. Place is actually doing well and could see some it's lovely regular patrons. If we are down on hayling again we are definitely stopping by for another meal

We havent been to Agaligo for ages, but the waitress recognised us immediately. Even though the restaursnt has changed hands our meal was as good as ever and the service as attentive. I would highly recommend this place.

The food was to Thai for! Best Thai food I’ve ever had in the U.K.! The service was lovely too! Throughly enjoy the dinner

After hearing so many good things about this restaurant we placed an £100 takeaway order. Extremely disappointed! Food was cold and not as authentic as I was informed it would be. Not much taste and very watery. Having been to Thailand 5 times I was excited to have authentic Thai cuisine again but it didn’t meet our expectations. I hope it was just an ‘off’ day.

Pleasant staff, excellent food and good service

Wonderful food every time. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.

The food was amazing and cannot praise the staff enough ,they were so polite a great experience , thank you all .

Having lived in Asia for 25 yrs, I was so impressed by the delicious authentic Thai cuisine and atmosphere. The high quality service was both friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely meal,excellent service, definitely will return.

Good Tom Yum soup, green curry and pork spare ribs. Good service too.

Absolutely amazing food, excellent service. Give it a whirl if your staying at park dean it’s only a 5-10 min walk down the road. It was beautiful.

One of the best restaurants an takeaways on the island

Great food. Wonderfully rich curry sauces with just enough spice to be nice but not hot. Singapore noodles had a great texture, firm and never soggy or greasy. All served up by an ultra polite end enthusiastic team.

Food was good, service good, atmosphere good...a little quiet until they turned the music on!

Great Thai food and good service. Have eaten here, off and on, for quite a few years. Always been good.

First time patron as a take-away order. Freshly cooked food and it tasted delicious. Yes it's a bit on the pricey side but I would sooner pay a bit more for a meal I'm going to enjoy rather than be disappointed and throwing half of it away. Portions sizes are perfect size for 2 to share as it wasn't immediately obvious to me how many servings there are (satay sticks, 4 would have been helpful on the online menu). As far as the restaurant goes, it's not got a particularly Thai feel about it compared to other Thai restaurants I've been to. Also the acoustics are a little off and the place seems quite echoey which may annoy some diners. Will definitely use again but probably just the take-away.

Probably the best Thai meal I have ever had, absolutely delicious. The presentation was amazing.The staff were very friendly and welcoming

The staff are delightful, it is family owned and run. Our meal was delicious and very authentic. The prices are very good. I wish this restaurant was in my home town.

Best Thai restaurant in Hampshire , great food great prices .

Just got back from this Restaurant, absolutely totally disappointed. Service was very poor, Missing items off the order and when the mains came one was cold. Nobody throughout the meal asked if everything was alright when we wanted Service we had to go find someone. When we finished the meal we waited 30 mins for some attention to pay but there was nobody around to ask so had to go and find someone out the back. When we complained it was just met with Sorry I am on Furlough, mmmmm, Never again.

Happy friendly staff, great food. Highly recommended

Amazing restaurant great service quality food

Fantastic food as always whenever I have eaten here. The owners are lovely and friendly, and the staff are always very attentive and welcoming. Thanks again! Will be coming back.

Authentic Thai food. This is original taste but present in a modern way. Every dish is designed with a right combination and all dishes come with stories. Staffs are awesome here. Best service. I love Thai food this restaurant.❤️😋

A very fine dinning Thai experience . I have been now few times to this small boutique restaurant in Hayling Island and every time it has surprised me with their excellent food, service and more importantly with their knowledge of Thai food. Pat - the gentleman in charge has an outstanding knowledge of Thai cuisine and general knowledge about all things Thai . I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is interested to experience South East Asian cuisine .

Very poor service. Would not go again

Great food and a friendly warm atmosphere

This was our 3rd time visiting this restaurant as the last 2 times were amazing Unfortunately this time was not so good. The resturant was packed with all the tables occupied and as there's only 3 waiters the service was horrendous. Half the starter came out cold followed by the next bit half hour later then main course was the same only one part came out 10 minutes later anothet bit followed by the rest by the time it all arrived the first bit had gone cold. Ive given four stars for the food because its lovely. I would given 5 if it wasn't let down by the abysmal service

Slow service as busy but the food was lovely.

Lovely place, friendly and clean

Really disappointed with this restaurant last night. Having asked about the Government 'Eat Out and Help' scheme when booking the restaurant, we were told that they were participating. When we arrived we were shown to our table and told that there was no 'paper' menu because of COVID-19 and we had to use a mobile phone scanner to look at a menu. This is the first restaurant we’ve used that has not provided any form of paper copy for that reason. Fortunately one our party did have such a facility on their ‘phone and then had to read out the menu to the whole party. Being on a small device and because of the print size this wasn't an easy option. However we all managed to make our choices and order. We also enquired if they had Sauvignon Blanc wine to which was replied 'yes' but without referring us to the Wine List which, again, needed scanning. Having had our order taken, we were then informed that we had to pay cash or bank transfer for our meal as the card reader wasn't working. Having finished our meal and got the bill, we noticed that no E O & H discount had been applied and so queried it. We were then presented with another bill that had INCREASED by £40! When we challenged it, we were then informed that the increase was because they had missed items off of the first bill also they were not in the Government scheme and were adamant that we were NOT told they were. Their whole attitude was unsympathetic and made no attempt to entice us back again. Shame really because the food was very pleasant but their demeanor appalling. We will not be returning.

Lovely takeaway. Inside, tables now more spread out than before

Lovely restaurant. We used to visit more often, but since moved out of the area. Always delicious authentic Thai food. On our last visit however it felt that the standards have slipped just a little, but still very enjoyable.

Always our go to celebration take away

Amazing authentic food. The staff are so lovely and attentive. Been several times and never disappoints.

Great food and unbelievable service. Had a fantastic meal and very reasonable price. As we were leaving 2 waiters escorted us to our car with umbrellas. I have never had that happen in my life and I have been lucky enough to dine in some fabulous restaurants all over the world. Perhaps 5 stars isn't enough? We will never forget this dining experience.

Great night. Great food great company

Amazing service, amazing food and reasonably priced. Visited for dinner while staying on the island and glad we did!

Food was very nice however we found the portions were on the small size for what you pay

Amazing food, amazing service and very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend

We love it here food is excellent. Never that busy in the week but always full at weekends. Staff are lovely and service is quick

Having never eaten Thai before, I thought it was nice but dont really have anything to compare it to! We ate late which might explain why the waitress seemed a bit grumpy but all in all nice food, good service and reasonable pricing (again, no other thai restaurant to compare to!)

Food is always fantastic never had a bad meal from there

Very nice, little restaurant with tasty, aromatic food and nice service. Reasonable prices. A little bit small portions. But overall 👍👍👍

Very nice food and friendly staff
