My family walk in on Friday late afternoon and had an amazing time! Despite the restaurant being very busy, the queue moved quickly, and the service was exceptional. Staffs greeted us with a warm welcome and made our experience special throughout. We were pleasantly surprised with complimentary Thai calamari and Bang Kapi Katsu to celebrate our special occasion, which was such a thoughtful touch. Staffs hospitality truly made the evening unforgettable. Thank you for making our night so memorable.

Busaba offers a Thai-inspired dining experience that’s enjoyable, though not quite as authentic as I had hoped. They didn’t have Thai milk tea. The por pia were served hot and had a satisfying crunch, but not enough filling. The Songkhla beef was tender, with a rich and well-balanced curry flavor. Everyone still enjoyed their meal though.

Hadn't been to any branch for many years. Enjoyed the darker more mellow vibes I remembered initially. Then it got very busy. This made me notice how close the tables were and also meant the speed of service went out the window a bit. The food was tasty enough but fairly standard and the beef in the ginger beef quite tough. Not sure how appropriately priced it is. Mixed feelings. Fine but not what I remember.

We visited Busaba Covent Garden to celebrate our daughter’s birthday as party of 6. The staff was very attentive and made every effort to make it special for us. The decor is passable but quality of food made up for lack of decor. Would highly recommend the calamari, spring rolls, sharing platter for two, crispy duck noodles, sirloin steak and king prawn red curry. Everything ordered came out lovely really. All of the staff were very friendly especially Gian who served us. Thank you!

Wouldn’t recommend especially for date night. Had to wait 10 mins after our booking time to be seated to then be put on a large shared table. The bench was wobbly every time the other person we didn’t know moved the whole bench did - like a seesaw. Ordered a sharing platter which was stingy came with 2 of each thing like just 2 spring rolls! Went and had another meal afterwards! Paid extra for the rice which had no flavour, just plain rice with scrambled egg and spring onion.

Came for dinner and were able to get a table without a prior booking. I was a fan of the green curry and pad thai - the pad thai especially was very well done. The calamari was yummy. The rice with beef was unfortunately not my favorite - just a tad bit too spicy for me. But for the price, this was very good food. Ending the dinner with mango sticky rice was just perfect.

Así que pedí el King Prawn Red Curry y lo que me sirvieron fueron unos 6 camarones pequeños realmente insípidos y solo un King Prawn. Los camarones baratos creo que eran pequeños congelados importados de China. Nunca me han servido un plato de tan baja calidad, aunque los camarones individuales dados era excelente, pero no volveré debido a esto.

Very nice looking place with kind staff and most importantly delicious Thai food - can't say anything about authenticity(I've never been to Thailand), but the dishes tasted like a truly asian ones.

I ordered a box of brownies but added an incorrect delivery address. I emailed the company immediately asking them to change the address. They emailed back and told me I'd have to pay for 2 deliveries. That would make the delivery of a tiny box of brownies £8. All they did was quote red tape nonsense back at me when I questioned this. They'll probably do the same thing for this review which will only validate what I'm saying.They don't care about their customers they only want you money. Don't bother.

Este lugar fue recomendado, de forma independiente, por un empleado de la tienda y un guía turístico, así que ¿cómo no podría intentarlo? Ambos habían entusiasmado con los calamares. Soy alérgico a los mariscos, así que esa no era una opción, pero lo que comí lo disfruté mucho. Me sorprendió que fuera un restaurante de cadena. Hay muchas ubicaciones, lo que lo hace muy conveniente si tiene hambre y se tropieza con él en cualquier lugar de la ciudad. La copa de vino servida rápidamente era muy necesaria después de dejar un museo abarrotado
