Gauthama Authentic Thai in Shropshire

Wonderful customer service and fabulous food. We ordered vegetable spring roles, prawn toast and satay chicken for starters and for mains the Chicken pad Thai and Beef in red wine sauce. All very good.

One of the best Thai restaurants we have been too. Food was delicious and service was excellent. Staff and management were attentive and knowledgeable. Mohsin, the owner, seems to have a good taste in recommending dishes. He knew exactly what we would like. 10/10 Highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely be visiting again if we are down in the area.

An absolutely wonderful experience, we ate there three times in a week. The food was excellent, and the prices were very, very reasonable. A four scallop starter for under £7 is incredibly good value and this sort of value for money was mirrored across the entire menu. The staff were brilliant and couldn't do enough for you and the kitchen were more than happy to modify the heat of the dishes to suit your taste (down for my partner and up for me). When I asked if they had any soft shell crab available, they said that while it wasn't on the menu they would get some in for me the following day if I wanted them to. I did and it was amazing, cooked in a broth based around Jungle curry, it was hot, sweet and incredibly tasty. They were even happy to share recipe and cooking tips for me to follow at home. I have eaten in many Thai restaurants around London and the south east and this is easily one of the best that I've found, especially at the prices they charged. I will definitely be going back whenever I am in the area again.

Extremely disappointing and substandard take-away. Starter inedible - had one bite of my prawn toast and had to throw it in the bin as was soggy, stale and just disgusting Main course had about 2cm of oil on the top and was so spicy (despite being advertised as mild) again could not be eaten. Partners main course also very poor. We live 20 mins away and the food was delivered exactly 25 mins after placing the order.....

While the food at this restaurant is not 100% authentic (pea aubergines were missing from the curry) the food here is really very tasty. The chefs hit right salt, sour and sweet balance that is so crucial to Thai food. The yum woon sen glass noodle salad is delicious, as is the laab (spellings in the restaurant might differ). Portion sizes are good and the price is right too. The only let down is that the music can be a little too loud for my liking but that's a personal preference. If you go, be sure to share your dishes and don't use chopsticks as the Thai's don't use but prefer a spoon and fork.

This was the worst Thai meal that we have had. We waited nearly half an hour for our order to be taken. The starters were bland and one was tough to eat. The main course had none of the aromatic and fragrant flavours of a Thai meal, it was a chilli hit combined with coconut milk. One very expensive side dish looked like a bowl of leftovers and tasted that way too. There was a lack of attention to the drinks order which was wrong twice and the place was too noisy and not relaxing at all. Overpriced and overrated in our opinion.

Called in tonight on the spur of the moment. Thankfully, it was early in the evening so we were able to get a table although it did get pretty busy whilst we were there so booking is advised. The restaurant has a really nice, clean...

Really nice Thai restaurant. Lovely, friendly staff and amazing food. Nice relaxed atmosphere and not stuffy. Will definitely visit again.

Amazing food service and decor. We were served by Fiston and Moe who could not been more helpful and accomodating. Thank you both and see you again very soon. Jane & Ashley

Unbeatable food hosted by lovely staff. Highly recommended and can’t wait till the next one. Also great cocktails

Had a fantastic meal with my wife, daughter and my parents. We all commented on how lovely the food was and how polite staff were. Highly recommended and we will definitely be going back

Fantastic food and service was excellent The staff really engaged with there clients And made some great suggestions Really made it an outstanding evening

1st visit and won't be the last. Absolutely amazing food and service. Can't wait to come back next week!

Never eaten Thai in a restaurant before but can honestly say this was the best meal I've ever had out in any restaurant! I had the crispy duck for my main and it was incredible. Nothing we ate was mediocre, everything was very tasty. Can't...

We had a takeaway from here last night (21/12/21) and it was fantastic. The food was just as good as when we visit the restaurant. Despite living a bit of a distance it was still hot and as always full of flavour. Will definitely be...

Outstanding Restaurant! Beautiful place with friendly atmosphere and the food was Wow! The spiced lamb was melt in the mouth. Shame we don't live nearer. I'd be back every week. Really reasonably priced too.

I chickened out of the jungle curry, because the lovely guy serving us said it really was VERY hot - so I can't vouch for that one. I went for the green curry and that was absolutely delicious. It was perfect - one of the...

Faultless! Went with a few friends so we ordered a few starters and mains and everything hit the spot! The food was delicious! Would highly recommend the lamb chops - so tasty! Also the crispy duck salad which was full of flavour! Restaurant has a...

Having visited before and thoroughly enjoyed it we decide to eat here again. Thai cuisine being a favourite of mine it certainly got the spot. The food was fantastic, with the seabass well worth the wait!!! All the dishes were great and just as I...

Authentic tasty fresh food will definitely return & would recommend… great addition to Cleobury… friendly staff welcoming & pleasent modern decor perfect evening! X

Curry’s are very authentic and tasty. The seafood starters are very poor. 4 finger nail size scallops with no sauce or flavour for £6.50 is a joke. Whilst you expect small portions of this dish they should have been twice the size and flavoured -...

Very Good Thai restaurant Food was excellent as was the recommendation of the young man serving. Would highly recommend . .

We had a great diner at this restaurant. The food was very good. The staff was welcoming friendly and very helpful. We would definitely eat here again should we be holidaying in the area.

Absolutely delicious food and the service is unmatched. Great if you love spicy food but they also accommodate for those who prefer it a little less hot. I couldn’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be returning!

Had a lovely meal on a Tuesday evening. Very attentive staff who give myself and my wife a great welcome. Had starters and mains and couldnt fault either. Would definaltly go back if in the area.

Worst Thai food ever !! Not authentic in any way and yes we have been to Thailand!! I make my own curry pastes, use galangal, chillies, kaffir Lime leaves, lemongrass, shrimp Paste, coconut, fish sauce etc. Delivered in awful plastic containers and was so sweet...

Just returned from our first visit to Gauthama it won’t be our last! Amazing food and great customer service. The staff were friendly, the food was delicious and the portion sizes were good. Would definitely recommend and will be back very soon.

First time eating here. Fabulous meal. Attentive, friendly service & delicious food. Will definitely visit again. 😁

Travelling from Essex we was welcomed by staff as soon as we walked in and taken to our seats straight away. The menu looked amazing and the staff took the time to explain each item on the menu and answered any questions we had. The...

From walking in through the door to leaving what a great experience. We wre taken to our table on arrival whitch was set in a modern stylish way. drinks ordered and looked at the menu fiston looked after us I hope I've spelt it correct...

I would just like to say "Thank you" for a fantastic meal last night, the food was amazing, and the waiters were good fun as well - 10/10 !

Our first visit to the restaurant having had a takeaway in the past and very impressed. Excellent friendly and knowledgeable service and really well cooked tasty food. Great value and we will definitely be going back.

I have been to Thailand multiple times, been searching for decent Thai since my last visit. Look no further, I have finally found it. Thai Chef, well presented , super service and friendly staff. Food was exquisite. Highly recommended .

Fabulous food, welcoming atmosphere, brilliant service. Authentic menu with a wide range of choice. Relaxed dining without the need to rush so you can enjoy the food.

I can’t fault the experience of eating in this restaurant. The staff were wonderful and the meal was excellent. I will definitely be returning soon. Everything we ordered tasted wonderful.

I'm in my 60s and tonight's meal was the best Thai food any of us have ever tasted. They catered effortlessly for our party with ages ranging from 2 to 78 and made such a fuss of my little grandson, he felt really special and...

The food is amazing but what puts this restaurant in the five star category are the staff. They're sincerely friendly, chatty (if you want a chat) and they are all so smiley - they all seem genuinely invested in the success of the restaurant. They're...

Lovely restaurant with excellent friendly staff and beautiful food. Really tasty and authentic. A great addition to Cleobury

Lovely restaurant with fantastic food, beautifully presented and served by charming and attentive staff. Wonderful flavours, excellent sized portions. We’ll definitely be regulars. Good delivery options too. Thanks for a lovely night.

Truly a gem of a restaurant just outside the beautiful Shropshire hills! We were heading on a hiking trip and decided to make a stop in Cleoburry to visit this place and I have to say, it was a highlight from the entire journey! Gorgeos...

Too bad they moved out of Coventry, now I need to drive to Cleobury to have my favourite Thai food!! Food is fresh, flavourful and has attractive presentation. Staff is very polite and friendly, ready to go above and beyond for their customers. Highly recommended.

I’ve previously ordered a take out from here during the lockdown but dined in for the first time. The food was delicious as always and the dining in experience was great. I definitely will be coming back again and introducing my friends to this restaurant!

Had a fabulous dinner at Gauthama and I am confident to recommend this place without hesitation. FOOD, service, staff, interior, atmosphere - 5/5 just WOW!! Looking forward to my next visit.

We are new to the area, and we love Thai food this restaurant was the closest to us and what can i say this will now be my regular spot, staff were exceptional! Thank you for making my food experience a one not to forget...

WOOOW, absolutely amazing. The staff are really polite and the food is on a different level. Would highly recommend! 10/10

I recently came across this restuarant after receiving the menu in the post. There aren't many exceptional Thai restaurants around so I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, it was beautiful. From the food to the decor to the incredible service, well done to the...

Incredible food and even better service! I am so happy that Cleobury is now home to one of the best Thai restaurants I have ever been to. We have a gem!

This is the worst Thai food that I have ever ordered, it was so shockingly bad that I took it back to them and had a refund. We ordered three main dishes, rice and noodles none of which we could have eaten or even wanted...

Ordered a takeaway due to good google reviews. Absolutely horrid. Starters were both greasy and dried out if that’s possible. My jungle curry was like boiled chicken in water with a bit of veg and hot chilli. My wife’s peanut based Tofu curry was ok...
