Forgot to write a review last year but a recent memory of the amazing time myself and my girlfriend had here compels me to write one. It was for my girlfriend's birthday and I called up to asked if I could bring them a cake before hand, which they presented beautifully. The staff throughout were so kind and our waiter was very friendly. The food (pork belly dish) to this day was the best I've ever had and was well priced too as a student. Made a truly special evening and we talk often of having to return. Highly recommend to all (plus, what a view)

Service a bit slow (45 mins from arrival) but friendly and the food was lovely. Suspect that they were short staffed today. Other than that, it was excellent.

Had a delicious dinner and lovely experience at Chaophraya. Had the gaeng panang (beef panang) and the chaophraya sharing platter. Both were delicious and full of flavour. Also were sat with amazing views and lovely and attentive service from Mills. Highly recommend and will be back for more meals throughout the year.

Avoid This Place – Terrible Service, Unacceptable Wait Times Absolutely appalling experience. We were a group of 15 people, arriving at 5 PM, with the last guest joining at 6:30 PM. We confirmed our food order once everyone was present, yet by 7:30 PM, our main courses were still nowhere to be seen. By the time we finished our mains, we had to endure another 45 minutes before they bothered to clear the table and serve dessert. Meanwhile, smaller tables who ordered after us received the same dishes before we did—completely unacceptable and unfair treatment. Throughout the excessive waiting time, we had to chase for updates twice. The first time, at 7:15 PM, the waitress assured us she would check but never returned with an update. The second time, at 7:30 PM, she took another 15 minutes to come back and vaguely claim the kitchen was "speeding up." Clearly, she did absolutely nothing the first time we asked, by which point we had already been waiting over an hour. It felt intentional, as though they were stalling just to push us to order more drinks. The waitress showed no interest in actually serving us and only kept coming back to ask if we wanted to order more alcohol. To top it all off, the table wasn’t even properly set up when we arrived, we were the only ones without napkins, and the overall lack of care from the staff was infuriating. An utterly disappointing and frustrating experience. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere that actually values customers.

The views are really special and the service was timely (if a little cold) but I found the food disappointing and not aligned with the prices. The tofu green curry came as cubed tofu heated through in a green curry sauce. The tofu wasnt fried or cooked in any special way - it had the consistency of tofu from the packet. There was very little in the way of vegetables - just a few small pieces of courgette and sugar snaps. The cost was £17.50 + £5 for rice. Our starter (sweetcorn cakes) was tasty but came with odd chunks of vegetables. The restaurant is fine but could do with a little care. The menus were tattered, paint had chipped off the table, and the glassware and cutlery felt quite cheap, which is not what I'd expect in a restaurant presenting itself as higher end. Would not return.

After having visited myself one time, it was on the list to bring my parents for their trip to UK and Germany. The glass table view should be reserved well in advance as the view is amazing and tables limited. We were fortunate to get the best table in the house! THANK YOU TEAM! The food was equally amazing and matched the view and ambience of the restaurant. Simply everything on the menu is a worthy selection. The rest of the restaurant is also very inviting offering a great evening ambiance. If in Edinburgh, this is a must visit and enjoy the diversity of the town and amazing views!

Had previously been in the day and enjoyed great views over the city. This was our second visit and was at night. Food was excellent but the table was so dark we couldn’t read the menu, when food arrived we were literally stabbing around in the dark to find it. They then brought out a DJ. We’d gone for a nice night out not a club night. Will not visit at night again and save this venue for daytime.

We had the pleasure of visiting this Thai restaurant, and we were thrilled! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a warm and friendly atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly polite and helpful in choosing the dishes. The menu offers a wide variety of traditional Thai dishes that not only delight the palate but are also beautifully presented. Every dish was full of aromatic spices and fresh ingredients, and I especially recommend the pad thai and Chaophraya platter – amazing! The restaurant is truly a feast for the senses, perfect for lovers of Asian cuisine. We will definitely come back again!

The service was poor, we were placed behind a door near the bar, and no one approached us at all. Despite trying to call for attention, no one seemed to notice. Although there was an absence in that section, it shouldn't mean that staff from other sections should neglect their responsibility. The food was just average; Dusit and Rosa's are still better

My husband picked here for our anniversary as he thought I’d like the views of Edinburgh castle and he had been on a business dinner. We arrived early and were seated immediately however we were seated in what can only be described as a corridor, with the cutlery behind me and the toilets along the same corridor - at night you can’t see the views as the blinds are down and we weren’t at the correct side for the castle anyway. Service was slow - in fact we are still waiting on the still water we ordered!! The food is lovely although this also came with its issue - my husband ordered the jungle curry but with lamb not prawns…it arrived with prawns! When we queried it we were told they couldn’t do lamb - at no point were we told that, we would have accepted another protein but it felt like they couldn’t be bothered to change it. The other massive issue was it was freezing - I watched people get their scarves and put them around their shoulders. Would I rush back? Absolutely not! The one in Glasgow is by far a nicer atmosphere.

The atmosphere was so classy and incredible as suitable to be called a dine in restaurant. Taste was good, especially Tom Yam Soup. A little bit pricey compared to food portions, specifically Jasmine Rice. A staff didn’t ask me how food it was and skipped my table to ask other tables instead (my table was between)

This spot was an absolute 10/10. Our waitress name was Chalisa and even though she was still learning, her service was amazing. After my request to make some dishes less spicy, the food was superb. We chose the Wang sharing set menu and it was more than enough for two people. For someone who can't handle spice like me, I'd recommend the 'Pad Prew Waan Gai' And for dessert we chose the 'Chocolate Bombe', they poured the hot Caramel sauce on top and you could see the chocolate just melt. Will definitely come back!

I was turned away from an empty restaurant, supposedly no space for walk-ins. The staff communicated this information in a discourteous manner, which I found surprising given that we were only seeking accommodation for two adults and one child. Overall, the policy of not accepting walk-ins seems ill-advised.

I booked this restaurant for a friend’s birthday after receiving a strong recommendation from a family member who had visited this exact location before. I’ve personally been to the Manchester branch, so I was expecting the usual high-quality food and service. Unfortunately, last night was an absolute disaster from start to finish. Our table was booked for 8:15 PM, and we placed our drinks, starter, and mains orders within the first 15 minutes of being seated. The drink service was very slow, I was told they had run out of Pinot Blush wine. I was given the last glass, which was disappointing since it was only option served by glass instead of a bottle. The starters took 40-45 minutes to arrive, which was average at best. On two separate occasions, we were told items from our order were out of stock and were asked to change our order. This was frustrating, as they should have known this when we initially ordered. We begrudgingly made the changes, but after an hour of waiting for our mains, we had enough. By 10 PM, we asked a waiter when our food would be ready since we didn't want to wait any longer. We were told it would be out soon, but we’d have to change our order yet again—this time because they had run out of beef for the Penang dish. They offered a different beef option, but warned it would be tougher and harder to chew. Given that this dish costs over £25, this was unacceptable. We refused to change our order again, which left the birthday girl with nothing to eat. After another 10 minutes of waiting, we decided to tell the waiter we no longer wanted our mains. It just didn’t feel fair for one of us to be left without food. As soon as we said this, they claimed the food was ready, but at that point, we had already been sitting for almost 1 hour 45 minutes. They did take the mains off the bill, but the way the waiter laughed about it and offered us a discount on the rest of the bill was inappropriate and unprofessional. What made the situation worse was the restaurant wasn’t even busy, so there was no reason for these delays. When we asked to speak to the manager, she was dismissive and didn’t want to address our concerns. To top it off, she started speaking in a different language to the staff right in front of us, completely ignoring us, which I found incredibly rude. This was an incredibly disappointing experience, especially for a special occasion like a birthday. Given my positive past experiences with the Manchester branch and the high recommendations for this location, I was shocked at how poorly everything went last night. I won’t be returning, and I can no longer recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Profit NOT the customer is king here. Poor food, but friendly, prompt waiting staff. Nice interiors but very loud acoustics of room; DJ music made the noise uncomfortably loud. Complained about insulting amount of vegetables in curry & padthai but was told "Sorry, but this is how you do padthai..." Charming. Don't recommend if you're over the age of 25 and seek a customer orientated establishment and some 'soul' to your dining experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This Thai restaurant offers stunning views and an incredible dining experience. The Chiang Mai curry was particularly unique and bursting with flavor, and all the dishes were made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. It’s clear a lot of care goes into the food preparation. Our host was very polite and helpful, which added to the experience. However, we did request to be seated at a more spacious table and, unfortunately, were not accommodated. While this was a bit disappointing, it didn’t overshadow the overall quality of the meal and service. I’d highly recommend this place for the food and views—just wish the seating arrangements were more flexible.

Very poor experience last night. Restaurant was very busy and seemed to be plenty of staff but service was dreadful. Took 20minutes to even be asked for a drinks order, starters arrived after 1½hrs, mains came almost an hour later and by the time we finished desserts it was 3½hrs all in. We had booked the festive menu with prosecco. Were given the wrong menus, was told it didn't include prosecco, was asked to provide proof that prosecco was included. Very embarrassing in front of the group. When they admitted their error, it was too late as folk had already started other drinks and no-one wants to have fizz after red wine. Only had one round of drinks as couldn't get anyone to take an order for more. We were left without cutlery. We had ordered a set menu for the whole group thinking that would be easier but at least 3 dishes on offer were not available. When the food came it was OK although the some items were in thick greasy batter. I did speak to a manager who was very empathetic and reduced our bill. He was lovely and it was clear he wasn't happy that we had had this experience. But unfortunately we won't be back. I had a family birthday booked for end of month but have cancelled because of last night. As we were leaving we heard 3 other tables complain also.

Food is insane, view is perfect but the waiter informed us that he has the authority to decide on his own tip. This meant that he could chose the exact percentage that he felt worthy. As a customer, I believe that I should be able to make my own choices in this regard. Quite frankly, I find this rule rather bizarre as the waiter can chose any value. Not really happy about that.

This was our first visit and we will definitely be back. We were a group of 4 - two couples - and visited on Saturday night. I had booked well in advance and had both text and email confirmations of my booking which was effective. I have been to the Glasgow restaurant and so expected the food to be excellent and it was - the whole restaurant is lovely and it’s fairly big so a bit more space at each table that some other Thai restaurants in town - like say Dusit - where the food is great but all tables a bit cramped. We arrived early and had a seat by the bar where the bar staff took an order and brought drinks across - and added to the Table Bill - very slick. We had the set menu - Chaophraya- and it was fantastic - the states were amazing especially the pancakes and spring rolls. The three main dishes were really good choice - Chicken was spectacular, Duck brilliant and the Lamb curry was good. We don’t usually take dessert but it was included in the set meal - and it was brilliant too On the Saturday the restaurant was very busy and the first course was a bit slow to come out - but they told us the kitchen was busy and it was fine. We had the table booked until 9pm - per the booking - but they never rushed us at all and we left about 9.30pm. Service was good - and the waiters explained the dishes but didn’t linger - we liked that. Excellent location in centre of the city , excellent food and good service.

My wife and I are big fans of Thai cuisine and make it a point to try it in every country we visit, including Thailand itself. So, when we stepped into this upmarket Thai restaurant, we had high hopes. The place looked quite classy – they even placed napkins on our laps – and the staff were friendly and efficient. The meals arrived quickly, which we appreciated. We ordered Thai green curry, beef chili basil stir fry, and some rice, along with two Coke Zeros, for a total of fifty pounds. Unfortunately, the food fell flat. The green curry was watery, and the chicken was so overcooked we had to send it back. The replacement wasn’t much better. The stir fry was overwhelmingly salty, with little more than soy sauce to carry the flavor. Considering how fast the food came out, it was surprising how overcooked the meat was. While the setting was lovely, the food has to come first, and sadly, this was one of the worst Thai meals we’ve had. A flashy restaurant is nice, but it doesn’t make up for a meal that leaves you wishing you’d stayed in and cooked yourself.

Worst ever experience booking this restaurant. We called on 14th October around 8 in the evening for a booking for a table for 15 people for 22nd October, which is a Tuesday, not even a weekend. The staff was unhelpful, and after waiting 8 minutes on the phone, they said the manager had just left and would call us at 9:30 tomorrow morning. No one called back. The next morning I called them and asked for any update at 10 am; they replied, "Sorry, the manager is busy. We'll call you." Around 11:15, manager Daniel called and said if we want to book a table for Castle View, the minimum spend is £3,500. It’s a Tuesday, not even the weekend. How difficult is to book this restaurant for dinner and it’s so expensive as well,

Lovely Thai restaurant with a cool atmosphere and vibe. We had the Wang set menu for 2 everything was delicious and we had to have some of it boxed up it was so generously portioned. Cocktails were great too. The only very minor complaint would be that they didn't put nearly enough sugar on the crème brûlée, I like a good layer to break through with my spoon, and it didn't snap (it was still delicious though!). The service was great, very attentive. Overall a great experience, would definitely go back.

Food was average at best. We had a range of dishes, sauces for which were mostly nice (the sweet glaze duck sauce was pure sugar). However, the food itself (particularly the beef and tofu) was dry and overdone, as if it had been left under a heat lamp for a long period. The wine was majorly overpriced. £40 for a bottle of Sauvignon blanc which tasted almost off, it was that bad. Service was very slow (we were there almost 90 minutes before our starters arrived) and you had to flag down a waiter to ask about this or to get a drink. Our waiter was friendly enough but also borderline rude at times, clearly not very interested in being there. The atmosphere was nice, apart from the “dj” who, unless you looked over to the corner he was standing in, you wouldn’t have realised was there. Volume was less than even background music and the song selection was poor. A Spotify playlist would have been a better option.

This place is great. The food was first class. Staff are absolutely amazing, all very nice, helpful, and want to make the experience as nice as possible. We went for a birthday and the restaurant brought us a small cake and candle when the desert was ready. The food was unreal, and the drink menu was extensive. Great atmosphere, and if you can get a view of the Castle, it's great. It's definitely worth a visit.

Great place to eat with stunning views. A bit expensive for what you get, but good food. Two menus for 4 and some small snacks are enough. Thanks for the good service Elmo!

Attended Chaophraya for a wedding reception dinner and several of us went for the 'Wang' set menu at £55/person. The three course meal was full of exceptional food and the wait staff were incredibly attentive, helpful, and adding a very positive atmosphere to the night.

Very overrated, inside decour and view I believe this is what your paying for, far from authentic pad Thai and very basic dishes with not much flavour, waitied 20 minutes before got served a drink and 40/50 waiting for food! Optional service charge was on the bill which I refused to pay and the staff dint seem happy about it which I thought was rude

Beautiful food, excellent service, staff went above and beyond, Cameron was very entertaining - a rare find anywhere in the world. We went with friends and had a great time and enjoyed a number of cocktails with our meals which were well balanced and all too easy to drink!

Cool vibes and the potential for great views if you can get a seat facing the castle. Had one of the best spicy cocktails ever (Thai Picante) - the bartender modified it to be slightly milder for me since I can't handle too much spice and it was perfect! Delicious food and great service. We have several dietary restrictions in our group and the servers were very helpful to accommodate.

Went for Friday family dinner. Pretty poor service! Took couple of friends who were also disappointed by their service! Had to ask for cutlery, napkins, drinks ! Food served without asking anyone needs any plates. Food was very average too for the price they are charging! Service was the big let down! Been there few times but no more! I will not recommend to go there, there are better options nearby !

Overall the place was okay! The sharing platter was tasty but nothing to write home. Partner had the sweet and sour with dragon fruit which she said was good. I had the duck from the grill section.!i get it was crispy duck. But damn was it dry! I've had really amazing crispy duck else where so I know it can be suculant. It was just all ok. The banana fritters with coconut ice-cream were a let down. Not sure where you get your ice-cream from. But its very cheap and bland. Spend a little extra for better end product. Chocolate bomb was decent. Service was good but almost very theatrical, however it was above par which is nice to see. The most shocking part was the service charge. At £150 for 2 people to then ask to put on £18 was almost a little greedy and cheeky. Would I go back? No unfortunately I didn't feel this place won me over. I kinda wish it hit all the right notes as it does have a lovely setting.

Great location, loved the ambiance, loved the selection of drinks at the bar. Food was not to our liking it was sweet and bland. Tomyum soup had to sent back twice. Service was friendly and courteous.

I cant give this place 5 stars only because of the food. Our side of rice was crispy, hard, and stale. The chicken stir fry dish wasn't bad, but not amazing. The chicken pad thai was delicious.

Fantastic Thai food, served by friendly staff and many tables have a stunning view of the city. Our food arrived before the drinks and the lighting in the area we sat in was so dim that we struggled to read the menu. Fortunately the food was good enough to overlook these annoyances.

Loved this place. The food was great but the staff was even greater, my friend ordered the wrong drink by mistake and the girl at the bar was lovely about it and went out her way to help get my friend the right one! Was really appreciated! Definitely recommend coming here! A little pricy but worth it!

we loved our Friday night dinner at this restaurant! from the friendly greeting to the OTH drink to celebrate our anniversary all the way to the great food and service. on the high end of prices but worth it. we had the dumplings and the tacos for first and the pad gro and sweet and sour stir fri for main. that last one wasn’t amazing but it bad. chocolate bombe for dessert-to die for!

Ate dinner here tonight. Delicious Bibimbap and ramen. Good portions and everything tasted great. Our server was lovely but very quiet; to the point where it was sometimes difficult to hear them. They were very efficient though, and everything arrived promptly. I Would have loved a little more mayo to dip my karaage chicken into but overall this was a great meal. Four starters and four mains with three soft drinks and one cocktail came in at around £120.

Absolutely love the food here. We usually get a take away, and it’s well worth the hour round trip it takes us. We decided to sit in for Valentine’s Day and it didn’t disappoint. With the friendly staff to exceptional food, we will continue to come back here time after time.

My wife, my 6 months old son, and I stopped at this place 22 years ago for look around, and we were caught off guards by the shop owner and his wife, who invited us with the best and tastiest cup of tea with some homemade chilli dip. This pleasant experience still carries its ripple with us 22 years on. To the gracious shop owner and his wife, thank you so much for the great experience and May God Almighty bless you and grant you all your wishes. 🌹
