Boonta Too Thai Restaurant in Monmouthshire

Very pleasant evening. Would definitely go back.

Price is very reasonable. However the we’ve ordered 5 different dishes all of them were very salty.

This is not authentic Thai food. Anyone who has been to Thailand will instantly understand. I would describe it as Chinese style food labelled as Thai. Won’t be visiting again.

Absolute hidden gem. Amazing food. Reasonably priced.

Came here for my sisters birthday and had an absolute amazing meal! All 6 members were in agreement that is it the best food in Abergavenny. Brilliant sizes for the price and they are definitely not stingy on meats.

Duck pad ped was the best meal I've had in Abergavenny in my life and service was great.

Very greedy and incredibly poor service. Order placed to collect in 30-45 minutes. After arriving to collect, I was informed I needed to wait another hour (this was a 8:30pm!) before I could even collect it, even though they closed at 9. I asked for a refund and left

We called into Boonta Too on Friday 16.08.2024 whilst visiting family in the town who had tried the take away service previously and had been impressed. I wouldn't go as far as other reviewers on this site singing the virtues of this restaurant, I have had much better Thai food elsewhere, but it was good, service was charming, the food was piping hot and there was plenty of it (possibly too much if you share the mixed starter for two first and then go for a full main course). I had the beef with chilli and ginger which was very tasty with plenty of meat although possibly a little dry but I did have food envy looking at the honey duck that others in my party had, especially after I'd tried a little of theirs. I'm not a big drinker by any means but it did seem strange that this was an alcohol free venue operating a BYOB policy and odd that you can't even get a Thai beer I would be happy to recommend and visit again but could only describe as average to good.

Really tasty and authentic Thai food. Seafood salad starter was very spicy although a little heavy on the sweet chilli sauce dressing. Green Thai chicken curry hot and flavoursome and plenty of rice included.

Really tasty food and friendly & efficient service. Quirky decor which represents Thailand well. Good value as it’s a BYO. Well worth a visit if you like authentic Thai food.

Great food. The service is also fantastic.

I really enjoyed my meal! I had a take away portion of Pad Thai, it was prepared while I waited in under 15 minutes. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, located at the top of the stairs, and I hope to return to eat in soon. (I visited on a Thursday at about 8pm.)

Friday night takeaway! Oh my! We had a mixed starter platter, a green curry and the honey duck. Delicious doesn’t come close, tastes so fresh! Thank you! .

One of the best in town! Get here!

Ate here tonight.... what a meal!! Four of us for my mums birthday. Tom yum soup all round, was extraordinary. Mains... red paste stir fry, jungle curry with duck, duck sizzler sweet and sour, and prawn green curry. All meals were genuinely outstanding 👌

We ate here around new years 2024 and we absolutely loved it! The decor was cute, customer service excellent, the food was YUM and prices very affordable!

We phoned ahead and ordered a meal to collect. We were told a 45 minute wait as they were busy. My husband arrived 45 minutes later to be told that he now had to wait an additional hour, but they still tried to take the money for the meal. He was advised to wait in the pub over the road, so he could have a drink whilst he waited, as there was no room in the restaurant (which is very small and intimate). We understand that restaurants get busy but to more than double our wait time and not contact us before is not acceptable. We have eaten here before and no takeaway meal is worth waiting over two hours for.

Food was great, amazing staff very friendly and attentive. Overall best place to go in abergavenny.

Outstanding service and delicious food!

Best place to eat in Abergavenny. Food is unreal, presentation is good and staff are friendly

Have eaten in before and was fine Had take away last week Oh my worst Asian food I have ever had Veg green curry was spicey but sauce like water granted good amount of veg My yellow chicken curry was awful Watery insipid sauce Chicken tasted as if boiled and the only flavour from sauce was salt and more salt Have had yellow curries elsewhere and so much better Satay chicken tough as leather Peanut sauce ok thpugh Sorry to say not good enough and won't use again

Had an excellent meal with friends. Very friendly staff and lady chef.

One of our favourites. Very reliable. Not accepting cards at the moment, though. ,

Excellent place, the food is really high quality, it's very tasty and great to have such a good selection of Thai dishes!

Both myself and my fiance had food here tonight, it was amazing. We will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu.

Really good food served by a friendly staff. Will go back again.

Starter of tempura vegetables was delicious and a large portion. Great experience can't wait to eat here again. BYOB made for a reasonable priced evening

Really tasty authentic Thai food , recommend

Fantastic genuine Tai cuisine ( how did I know?) one of our party is a tai lady who has also run her own tai restaurant, who said it was like her mum makes!

Fantastic food. Really enjoyed the visit

Delightful intimate little place up the stairs. Bring your own wine/beer if desired. Cash only, but there is a cash point very nearby. After sharing starters of chicken satay and fish cakes, my roast crispy duck in green curry was delicious! With coconut rice of course. I would go again tonight!

We booked a table for 7 30pm but didn't eat our starter until 45mins later. I didn't really understand the system as it looked like the place closed at 9.30pm and there were lots of people not eating! However, I realised there is a method and the food when it came was absolutely delicious. I would just be wary if you book, especially with kids or ravenous, to take a possible delay into account. The staff were lovely and I enjoyed the whole byo bottle (shop right next door) and cash only made the night a bit more quirky. We had veg tempura and chicken satay starters with red curry beef and veg/tofu green curry - tofu not slimy cooked to perfection 😋

Amazing service and extra special food. Very authentic and not expensive. Cash only and bring your own alcohol Thank you

Gorgeous food, brilliant service, relaxed atmosphere will definitely return

Absolutely stunning food as usual!

Fantastic! Tried these 3 times now and has been excellent each time. Particularly love the lime chilli salads, king prawn cashew nut and sweet and sour. The curries we've had also very good

Great quality food and good value

Read previous reviews, obviously have not experienced good Thai food. Travelled to Thailand many times Soi shouldn’t have expected similar food in Abergavenny, however, compared to Sydney my home city, the quality, taste, and cost was what disappointed me. At first I thought this restaurant will be ok. Nicely fitted out, Thai people running it. I don’t need a welcome snap, you can’t buy alcohol and it’s cash only. Two starters, sate chicken leathery with a sauce probably out of a can. The main, overcooked chicken, tasteless. A stir fry should come straight out of the wok, served hot, not warm. It was awful. Looking forward to getting back to my local Thai in Sydney, far superior food for half the price.

First time visit, won't be the last. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, excellent service and a good choice on the menu. We all thoroughly enjoyed the food.

We’ve eaten at a few dozen Thai restaurants around the world, including in Thailand. Excluding Thai food within Thailand this is maybe 3.5 stars, and only 2 stars when compared to the best Thai in Thailand. For me the classic Thai flavors were missing. Dishes that should have a good coconut or Thai basil flavor just didn’t. We get massaman at every restaurant and this just didn’t have the right flavors. Maybe they can’t source good ingredients in Wales.

1st time experience, lovely. Be sure to ask the strength of the spiciness! Bring your own wine, no corkage charged!

Delicious food and a chilled atmosphere. Friendly staff! Will be back 😚

First time reviewing, but been many times. This restaurant is superb! Food is spot on every single time! Absolutely love eating here and will do many times in the future.

Wonderful selection of starters, Thai curries and all kinds of other other dishes. Service also really good - and you take take your own drinks with you. Great place.

Our first visit to the Boonta Too but it won't be the last. The food was fresh and deicious and the service attentive without being intrusive.

Had planned s meal here buy they only accept cash so we didn't actually go in.....pity I was looking forward a Thaieal...

Had a fab Birthday meal, excellent food and value. Well looked after by the staff. Bd back soonxx

Quick service, very appealing & appetizing look of food which was very tasty, just as described on the menu. The place is family-run where BYOB applies, really well spent evening

Regular customer for takwaway as the food is simply amazing!! Especially the green duck curry... Anything with the duck is just divine actually...(honey duck,crisp duck w/chilli & ginger) can never pick. Sit in is also a lovely experience as staff are great :)

Been here so many times and every time has been amazing! Food tastes delicious and service very friendly! BYOB is great, although cash only can be a pain.

Very very good. Brilliant staff and excellent food. Will go more often definitely.

opening time is late and opening hour is short

Timely to-go pickup. Friendly. Everything tasted very nice.

What an amazing little authentic Thai! Can't believe its so close to home and I haven't been before! Staff lovely, traditional decor and the food! It's like an older Thai grandmother is cooking with love to her family! I'll be back boyo

Amazing little place with superb food and bring your own booze. Really nice, if you're around do check it out!

Had the set menu for 2 and it was great

Delicious food and great service.

Always great food, friendly service

Good place. Well decorated, comfortable seats. Good staff and service. Good tasty food and reasonable price. Must try.

Absolutely delicious Thai food run by a local Thai family. Would hugely recommend, we've been coming for years and it never ever disappoints!

We found Boonta Too during lockdown as we tried a few different take aways in town. The food is delicious and always made quickly. The service is friendly and is priced as I would expect. Can’t wait to eat there once restrictions ease!

Tasty takeaway, recently moved into the area and was recommended this restaurant. Ordered the set meal and really enjoyed it. Plenty of food and all really tasty. Looking forward to being able to have a sit down here. Would recommend.

Lovely food i only had tske away was tasty and nice

Great meal authentic and great service 5stars👌

Me and my parter ate here tonight and it was honestly the nicest meal I've ever had! 100% recommended. The crispy duck green curry is amazing! My partner really enjoyed her vegetarian pad Thai. Will be back!

Chose because governent website said in Eat Out Scheme. When bill came advised not in scheme and required full payment as they were not aware they were registered for scheme. Very disappointed to therefore find after their Facebook page was plastered with adverts for Eat Out Scheme. Food excellent but very disappointed by misleading info

Truth is I didn’t expect much because Abergavenny isn’t exactly the Hub of Sophistication!!! 😲🤫🤣 BUT.... this restaurant really is a complete FIND .... authentic Thai 100% ... a true delight .... but book ahead ... It’s a small restaurant to avoid disappointment 😌

Visited today as we are staying locally. Booked our table in advance as quite a small restaurant with short opening times. Very pleased with the menu options and we opted for a slightly adapted set menu. Very tasty food and friendly attentive staff. Thank for a lovely meal

Love the food here. A "must" visit restaurant

Superb Food. As someone who loves Thai food, this place has equaled the best I have ever had from all around the world. Absolutely mouth watering.

Great food, great service, lovely people, great vibe. Definitely recommend

The food was simply stunning, best Thai Red Curry I have tasted. Best Thai Food I have ever had. Will be back 👍

Unfortunately they missed two items on our order but the food was excellent, with good service and at a good price! Would come again for sure.

We've eaten from Boonta Too many times. Always the same high standard as my original review years ago - I said then that the food and flavours were like being an honoured guest in the home of a Thai family. Our family includes a well-travelled mid-twenties 'foodie' who is home at the moment - and she's a very knowledgeable supporter of the food and restaurant trade in Abergavenny. Told her this evening that we were doing Boonta Too. She said "It's tough at the moment and they deserve to make it through this. Boonta Too is one of the Gems of Abergavenny". She is not wrong.

Boonta too has opened again as a takeaway so you can get great Thai food in Abergavenny and eat it at home

My wife met Colin in town today and found out that Boonta Too is taking orders for you to have your favourite thai food at home.So we ordered yellow curry, green curry, Pad Thai, hot and spicy prawn soup with rice. As usual it was lovely.Please support this restaurant and enjoy great food at home.

The food was delicious! Really recommend prawn toast and green curry! Because you can bring your own booze, it works out as a very good value evening out. The service was lovely, very friendly and unobtrusive. I hadn’t been here for a while and I found the overall experience much improved. I had a good vegan meal, and my husband enjoyed the seafood, and we bumped into friends enjoying a good meat meal.

Lovely service and excellent food

Supplier of Guest Green and Red Thai Curry to Tasty Tatoes Abergavenny. Customers love it !!

This is a fantastic restaurant. Very very good food at very reasonable prices. The staff are delightful. Authentic thai. Bring your own drinks keeps the price down to make the experience remarkably economical.

I have tasted good veg Thai curry.. Love it..

Good food ,could do with updating

Excellent food and service. Good value for money, had the set meal for two at about £20 a head. Its a byo so took a couple of beers with no corkage. Will go back.

Good choice of food and excellent service 😁

I’ve eaten in many times and have always been satisfied with the quality of the food, last night I had a takeaway and I’m pleased to say the same. I had a chicken green curry (extra spicy) with egg fried rice. The entrance looks a bit tired but don’t let this put you off, plus it’s BYO alcohol.

Went to this place as friends were talking about it I never knew it existed.Such a lovely place. Only downside loads steps but once up the stairs the staff are welcoming and very friendly They dont have a bar but we were told to bring our own drinks Food was lovely and the waitress was superb. Couldn't do enough for usPrice is just rightWill be going back

Fantastic example of Thai cuisine, we have tried most of the menu over the last 9 years and it is always great! Very friendly and only getting better over time.

Had a dinner 2 takeaway. Starters were really good but mains were overpowered with salt. Underlying flavors were ok but the meal was spoilt with an excessive use of salt. Great pity because it could have been ok.

Boonta Too is a bit of a mixed bag though the good definitely outweighs the disappointing. Some of the dishes we ordered were excellent, with complex, nuanced flavours. Others, like the pad thai, were a disappointingly one-dimensional pile of noodles coated in little more than sour tamarind - none of the delicate balance for which Thai food is adored. Overall, we had more good dishes than poor, and would go again for the beef salad and duck red curry. BYOB a nice way to keep the bill reasonable.

My wife and I had a takeaway which was frankly inedable.The peanut sauce which came with the satay was bland and had no real taste.The green curry had no real thai taste no bamboo little basil or chilli and the yellow curry again little taste and even less potato. The curries had plenty of meat and sauce but little else.The coconut rice had little if any coconut flavor and the fried noodles well less said the better.In all a poor reprecentation of Thai food lack of flavor and far to much salt, would not recommend and will not be going back.

Food was delicious. Decoration was amazing.. we really enjoyed our visit

Great food, wonderful sevice, hidden gem. Also BYOB so is value for money 😀

We have not been to this restaurant for many years as the head waiter was rude and put us off from going back.However we left it to friends to book a restaurant and they love this restaurant so a table for six was booked for last night.Ok the entrance is a little dated but once seated the staff were great( the man had left) food was excellent starters varied and a great selection of meats and fish£13.50 for the mains which included rice or noodles.Plenty to eat for cooked well

Authentic Thai food and great service. We had spring rolls & satay to start with vegetable red curry and duck with chilli / garlic for main. We also had a pad Thai & rice for sides. Everything was superb Highly recommended

Great, delicious food no matter what you order from the menu. You won't leave hungry! BYOB so the bill is always reasonable. Service is friendly and efficient. Can't wait till I go back again!!

The chicken was over cooked. The curry with coconut milk was a okay, I have had better. Good customer service. However needs updating and better lighting.

Great traditional Thai food in quirky authentic restaurant. So many delicious dishes the pad thai is to die for. Personally I stay away from the deep fried food and stick to the more authentic Thai food. Without doubt the best restaurant in Abergavenny plus you can take your own beer or wine

Family meal with my son and daughter in law. Good reviews so we thought we would give it a try. Nice staff and a certain “old time” atmosphere. We brought our own drink as the restaurant does not have a bar licence. Not an issue for us but maybe for others. Reasonable menu selection and the food was delivered in good time. Two is us thought the food was very good but one thought it only fair. Perhaps it was slightly lacking in those strong Thai flavours and hotness. However overall a good night and at least two of us will be back

Great choice of well cooked dishes. Well presented and very tasty. Good service. Homely place

Food decoration on plate already had a bite out of it, obviously reused from a previous customer's plate.
