GoongNoi Thai Restaurant in Bristol, City of

very good rice and paneer and tofu thai curry their rice is amazing and they have good cabbage and pork balls and vegetable balls spring rolls. I think they are very good. My family like their food, take away is excellent I like their food.

Great food, really impressed with it. One of the dishes took a while to arrive at the table which meant we were all kept waiting but it was worth it when it finally arrived.

Ate here recently-of the 2 Thai Beers on the menu -no Beer Chang only Singha. Ordered chicken sate which was 3 huge pieces of chicken, these had been deep fried as opposed to grilled. All completely tasteless and the largest piece was still cold in the centre. The chicken had been pre-coked and then deep fried as it wasnt raw however the dish bore no resemblance to a sate which is a barbequed dish in Thailand. Also ordered Penang curry with beef which was overly sweet with no balance of flavour, again bore no resemblance to any version of this dish which can be found in Thailand. All in all the food was very poor, inauthentic and lazily cooked -wouldn't return.

We drive across Bristol for this once a week. Beef Massaman and Red curry both fantastic with nice pieces of meat (loads of meat we usually just bulk out with veg at home and keep for a second meal). Very flavourful and reasonably priced. Fishcakes also well priced and delicious. We’ve tried maybe 15 thai restaurants across Bristol and this has become our favourite. Also very consistent which is important!

Was perfectly fine. Food was perfectly fine but definitely not great, there is much better available in Bristol. Layout and decor very "functional", a few more pictures, plants or colour wouldn't go amiss. Service alright, without being anything special. Just left us a bit underwhelmed so wouldn't hurry back or recommend anyone taking a special trip too far out of their way but if you are in the area after a quick bite to eat it will do the job. Clearly doing very good repeat trade with the locals anyway as always appears busy, which is fair enough. It is what it is.

We enjoyed our visit the food was good, staff very friendly. The service was good the music was a bit quaint but it made us smile.

First time going here with friends. The people working here are very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately I am giving only 2 stars for the food. Starter was the Tom Yum soup with prawns, the soup was not very tasty, it was more salt I could taste. I was expecting a bit more colour in the soup (more red) but it was very pale. The main was Pad Thai with prawns and vegetables. I was so looking forward for this, however, it tasted SO sweet and sour like they used any sauce they could get.... and the noodles were overcooked soft. Just not the authentic Pad Thai I am used to. I was just missing the darker colour, fish sauce and a bit if of soy sauce. I didn't finish it but would never throw away food so I asked if I could take away to home. Later on another lady came to our table and she probably did not know I wanted it take away so she just put dirty plates on it! Nevermind the take away then.. the lady I asked for the take away ignored us and didn't even say sorry or anything. I won't come back here. I am not an expert on Thai food, however, I have had sooo much better Thai food than here. It just didn't give me the "wow delicious Thai food"...

First time going to this restaurant, was greeted by a lovely member of staff @ the door, nice quiet ambience and cosy, food was absolutely delicious service was very good and professional, noticed they had a lot of customers coming in for take away, so there are very popular. We will be definitely coming back

Visited here for dinner and the food was very good Had the duck in tamarind, Penang chicken and the sea bass All were very good and reasonably priced. The venue in the high street has a nice decor only recommendation I would have is they should put curtains or blinds up over the multiple windows they have to keep the warmth in and add an element of comfort to the venue. Parking around the area is not great we found somewhere The service was good and we would visit again ,

Been twice now and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The menu, food, portions, prices and service are all first class. To carp, the lighting could be a bit more, um, sophisticated, they no longer do any set menus, the choice of desserts is limited to just two (banana fritters with a choice of two ice creams or just ice cream), but the banana fritters were fine (they can sometimes be rather stodgy). I also prefer draught to bottled beers. Otherwise, a very pleasant experience and we'll definitely visit again.

Tasty mixed starter and Chenin Blanc but my main (Panang Ped) contained duck that wasn’t particularly good quality. Another issue was the proximity of the tables, bad news if your neighbours talk all night...

We ordered veg spring rolls, pad Thai, basil chicken and chicken massaman curry and all were delicious! Order was ready within 25 min to pick up. Generous portions

We booked a table on a Saturday night for 2. We have been to Thailand a few times and love the food so had high hopes. First impressions the restaurant was very quiet. The lighting was very bright which unfortunately only served to highlight the poor dated decor and grey net curtains tucked up into the end of the windows. There was only 1 waitress serving who barely said more than 5 words the whole time we were there. It took quite a while to even order drinks so we ordered food at the same time. The mixed starters for two were nice and plentiful. The green papaya salad we ordered with the shared starter didn’t arrive until the main courses arrived and was not great. No dried shrimps and a weird aftertaste we couldn’t put our finger on, nothing like the real thing. The main courses were also disappointing. The deep fried fish was soggy and not crisp but the sauce was ok. It seems like the main focus is on takeaways. Unfortunately we won’t return.

We had a very nice meal midweek when the restaurant was quite quiet. The food was lovely and as authentic as could be expected. The meal was well priced and staff were lovely and welcoming. We will definitely be going back. Aroy mak mak!

We visited for a birthday celebration and enjoyed a fantastic meal. The children (including an 18 month old) were made very welcome and our waitress was great. She advised about food choices, checking personal tastes and was very courteous and helpful. Our food was served quickly and was piping hot. It tasted wonderful and was excellent value for money. This is not the classiest restaurant to look at, particularly the bathroom, but it's clean and you cannot fault the service, the food or the price. On street parking available as well as a car park just down the road. We will definitely go again.

Visited for a birthday meal with friends, easy to book online, food was really tasty - we shared the mixed starters which were all delicious. Excellent and attentive service, nice to be able to support a family business.

Wonderful food, excellent service unfortunately child playing a film in takeaway area. Which was extremely loud and totally ruined the atmosphere. I would definitely visit again, and if said child is there I will say something. Apart from that the food was probably the best...

The food was excellent, portions were good. Service was also lovely. Had an issue with children. A family had a child who was friends with the owners child. Do they were running about. When the family left the owners child was sat in the takeaway...

I was recommended by a friend as a must visit Thai. Disappointing to say the least. The food wasn’t tasty and the Pad Thai Gia had far too much sugar. Service was really friendly and the team certainly made the most of the visit Bristol...

We have eaten here for years, literally the most delicious Thai we’ve had in Bristol (and we’ve tried most Thai takeaways in Bristol!). The ladies running Goongnoi Thai are always super lovely, friendly, warm and welcoming. We love the green and red curries extra spicy...

This place does fair to good Thai food in a perplexing atmosphere-less neighbourhood restaurant. I have eaten here twice now with literally no other customers which is always a little off-putting. So we started just getting take aways- whcih were infuriatingly variable in quality... so...

The food here is the real deal. Absolutely delicious, cheap considering the quality (especially if you come for the lunch deal), and more or less what you would get in Thailand - the only difference beaing the vegtables which I presume they find hard to...

We ate here recently with friends. We went for the set menu. The food was nice, nothing outstanding but nice enough. The fish platter starter was all a bit too deep fried but the mains were good. The wine list is terrible and is not...

I regularly eat at this gem of a restaurant in Westbury on Trym. The staff provide a very warm welcome and the food is consistently great and good value. Highly recommended!

With our daughter away on a sleepover, we had a rare night to ourselves and chose to eat at this resturant. We have eaten here a few times previously, and once again we were not disappointed! The service was good without feeling rushed, the presentation...

Welcoming peaceful oasis of calm in Westbury on Trym village in NW Bristol suburbs. Lovely Thai Food to cater for all tastes with extensive vegetarian options. Well prepared and served by friendly Thai lady. My third visit in a couple months.....Highly recommended!

We have been getting takeaway from here for a couple of years, and finally decided to eat in the restaurant tonight. We love this place - great Thai green, crispy squid and chilli sauce, and lovely service

Good staff and the food is so good. It's a small thai restaurant I loved to go. My children are keen!

We stumbled across this restaurant when out looking for a takeaway. The staff were helpful and friendly ; the menu was large. We ordered for a group of 7. And the dishes we had were lovely( e.g crispy duck , veggie starters , sticky rice...

We are regulars here and never have I had a bad experience. The food is great and massive portions. The service also top notch. Highly recommended!

Really good service, no long wait it was all served promptly and looking very appetising, more importantly it tasted delicious, especially the Thai green curry - lovely. The starter of duck looked more like a mains it was so generous in its size. The only...

Excellent service and great food quality. Very friendly staff, clean and quite. Definetely we coming back!

Following a recent walk around Westbury-on-Trym and viewing the restaurants lunch time menu decided I would make an effort to eat there next time I was in the area.. Come the day I had feared that I might be too late but thankfully they close...

Staff couldn't do enough for you here and were all very friendly. Nice that they do cocktails which are very tasty. Food wise..it was very good and good portion sizes, lots of vegetarian options which was great I had a dish in sweet and sour...

The food is amazing at this restaurant. For those who require some dietary or prefer a less spicy version, there are more than willing to cater for them. The staff are friendly, very polite and you can tell that they care very much for their...

Went to GoongNoi for dinner. The service was good even though we had to ask for some sweet chilli sauce a couple of times. The food was above average, but nothing special. We ordered the salt and pepper squid to start with, which was well...

3 of us visited GoongNoi for what turned out to be an excellent meal. The service was very friendly and they were able to create a few dishes that were not on the menu but loved by one of us who has spent a number...

First time here, very wcoming lots of choice on the menue. Staff very polite, reasonably priced and large portions. The food was really good we all enjoyed our meal and will be back

The starters were good but 3 out of the 4 main courses were really disappointing. The squid dish had about 4 pieces of squid and the rest was bulked up with peppers and onions. Flavours overall were bland.

We chanced upon this place when shopping in Westbury on Trym and were pleasantly surprised by this place. It's a small restaurant so not many tables but we went at lunchtime and it was quite quiet. Bargain £7.95 for 2 course lunch. Gorgeous food and...

This was our children's first experience of Thai food, so we had a selection of food and asked the waitresses to bring it all together which they did. All the dishes were excellent, especially the crispy duck and prawn green curry, and the service was...

We had a take away from here this week. All the dishes we ordered were incredible! We live locally so will definitely be going back to have a proper sit down meal. They even managed to impress my very fussy eater Dad, they listened carefully...

Having read the reviews on trip advisor we were looking forward to first visit here. Sadly it wasn't the experience we expected. Service was absolutely abysmal. One poor overworked waitress who made no attempt to hide her state of frustration at being on her own....

I tried the Thai red (called something slightly different). Absolutely delicious and great service. Recommend the garlic rice too it's awesome. Staff are very friendly and prices are very reasonable so not sure what there is not to like! I will be back.

Sunday night, back late, not much choice so decided to try the local Thai which has changed hands. Turned out to be an excellent decision as the food was both interesting and tasty. Lovely people in charge. We are likely to try again this weekend...

We visited this restaurant to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. We were greeted with a smile and shown promptly to our table. The menu was extensive and it took us a while to make our choices! When the food arrived it was plentiful, well cooked and...

Over the past few years there have been a number of very good Thai restaurants in Bristol and to that list GoongNoi Thai can certainly be added. I gather the current owners have only recently taken over the place and renamed it - previously it...

Service was unfaultable and the quality of the food was great! Certainly one of the better Thai restaurants I have experienced in England. It was relatively quiet when we visited early on Saturday evening but they haven't been open long since the new owners have...

My husband booked us in for dinner on Friday night. It was quiet at 7pm with a few tables occupied. The lady who served us was very attentive to all the customers. We were seated straight away and took us a while to select from...

Three of us dined on a Friday and the restaurant was not over busy but it was early in the evening. The greeting was warm and so was the service throughout. We had the sharing mixed starters which were well presented and tasty, probably ready...

Lovely food. We just realized it changed hand. The food is much better. Taste just like in Thailand. Well done!!!
