Koh Thai Lilliput in Poole - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely food and lovely staff. As someone who loves chicken fried rice their "Spicy Chicken Fried Rice" dish is probably the best I've had.

Everything was excellent ❤️ the food was super delicious. The quantity could have been a little more abundant, but the flavor was excellent.

I liked it a lot!!! For starters we ordered: Vegetable rolls with shrimp, they were good but they lacked a touch of more flavor, for example in the shrimp that was simply cooked. The sauce that accompanied it was delicious! Bao bread with pork. It was delicious but it had too little filling, so it tasted more like dough than the filling. The delicious strawberry cocktail. The green curry was SPECTACULAR!!!!!!! ❤️ Friendly and correct service and high prices.

Food amazing ... Service amazing

Starter's lovely ... attitude from a member of the team in requesting extra sauce. Mains ok ...but duck was burnt of top and incredibly fatty underneath. Other main incredibly hot .. baldy cooked. The address states Sandbanks roaf, not road . Won't go again and will not recommend

I go solo and the staff and food are incredible . It’s old fashion customer service and the difference is the staff really care about the service and quality . Nothing is too much trouble

Had an amazing time the food was incredible! Service was quick and the waiter Carmine was very friendly and funny 100% made the time more enjoyable!

We haven't been for a while so thought let's go to Koh Thai! But unfortunately we didn't get as far as ordering a drink. we walked into an empty restaurant and I can see why. We were hit with the strongest toxic smell of bleach and what I could describe as toilet cleaner. we sat down and we couldn't believe the strength of this smell it was unbearable and made us feel quite ill instantly. The last thing I could think about was trying to enjoy our meal whilst feeling like I'm sat in a toilet that's just had a deep clean. Really off-putting and maybe something to focus on as it's off-putting to diners. So with that we didn't even order a drink and we left. disappointing.

Worst katsu curry I've ever had. Chicken like rubber bullets and rice undercooked. And what is with this "optional" service charge added to the bill. Won't be going back.

Delicious lunch and great, friendly service from Carmine - lots of good choices available on the menu. It came quickly and take away boxes for leftovers were no problem

First time at koh Thai and the food was amazing, we had the crunchy aubergine, vegetable pad Thai and the crispy sea bass and it was all amazing!!! Definitely be back 🤩

Probably the best Thai I’ve had since being in Thailand. Full of flavour, great service, great on take away too. A real treat thank you guys

The worst meal I have had. Seriously bad. Came to collect our order. made us wait an additional 10 minutes so we popped out, and when we got back they didn't know who we were 10 minutes later. the food is really terrible. the crispy squid is as soft and chewy and flavorless as anything you have ever eaten before even though we got home within five minutes of picking it up, the vegetarian katsu curry is absolutely Bland and awful and comes with a greasy sauce which seems like it's come out of a bottle from the back of a cupboard. the pad Thai is the most flavorless I have ever had. I can't imagine why this restaurant ever gets more than two stars..i never leave food. Didn't finish half of this . AVOID

I visited this past week and had a lovely experience. The food was amazing, I recommend the Pad Thai!! There was a nice atmosphere in the whole restaurant, staff were attentive and welcoming, was served by Bailey and blonde Scottish girl who’s name I didn’t manage to catch, drinks were great, food was amazing and we had a lovely time the whole evening!

Our first visit to Koh Tai despite driving past it every day and we now wish we had gone sooner! The staff were all friendly and welcoming with just the right amount of attentiveness. The food was superb, all beautifully flavoured and seasoned. This will be our "go-to" restaurant from now on and we are looking forward to working our way through the menu!

Excellent service was offered by Carmine, the cocktails (Mai Thai) and food were delicious! we will come back for sure!

Quiet at lunch time but good service and food. Good value too.

We went to this restaurant on Tuesday, it was quiet only 7 other customers. My husband chose the Green Thai Curry with pork and I had the Vegetable Pad Thai. Both dishes were delicious. We will definitely go back.

Food is fab the setting not so much. Staff just weren’t attentive, one refused to even address me so my friend had to order as she just stood staring at her the whole time. Staff had their kid there and another customer had a barky dog. Food was fab except the tempura veg, lacked the batter, portions small and prawn crackers not complimentary unlike most other Thai’s. Service charge added to bill. Think you should decide whether it’s a good service and whether you want to tip, unfortunately ours was not. Can’t fault the food but think staff need reminding it’s not a nursey and as much as I love dogs, pubs yes but restaurant no. Around a 25 minute wait between courses, was only 3 other tables when we came in. It’s not our first choice but sadly our other two favourites are closed on a Monday

I love Thai food and Kho Thai cook it perfectly.

So lucky to have this as our local 🤩 Fabulous staff and gorgeous, fresh Thai food, no microwave ‘warmed-up’ food served here… everything is cooked fresh so, on busy evenings, just chill, it might take a little longer but it’s worth it. And very very reasonably priced 👌

A great place to hang out with friends and family. Pleasant and fast staff. Everyone liked the delicious food. In fact, the shrimp in the noodles were not very tasty to me, probably because they were ready earlier and they were put on the noodles, so they did not go well with everything else.

Early work Xmas meal, fantastic food, happy and hard working staff and Christmas music. We were a large party and everyone loved the food! Thank you Koh Thai.

Lovely cosy atmosphere and friendly staff, however the food was very average, especially considering the price, I appreciate thing have got more expensive recently however I would hope that that quality would stay the same. Unfortunately very disappointed by the experience. A couple of much tastier, and easier on the pocket Thai restaurants nearby that are well worth trying.

Visited Koh Thai Lilliput for dinner and were greeted by "Hey Baby" and other loud 'apres ski' music. We ordered one kids meal which is supposed to include and drink and we ended up being charged for the kids drink anyway. A pint of beer costs £6.75. When asked if we can reduce the volume of the 'apres ski' music we were told it wasn't possible. The food was very good but to be honest there are several other Thai Restaurants around that are just as good and much less pricey.

Great place to dine excelent service Nd friendly staff.

We had outstanding service - our waitress was attentive and helpful. The food was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the superb non alcoholic options - lots of mock tails and then a great range of exotic teas.

I love this little gem in the heart of Lilliput! Is my favourite Thai restaurant in the area! Staff is super welcoming and the atmosphere cozy and familiar, is the perfect place for a date or just meeting friends! The music is always right, and the lighting is matching the atmosphere to the right point! Sometimes gets really busy but the food never lose quality and the service always to the top standards!👌thanks Koh Thai for all the good times!! 😍

We went out with our family for a quick dinner on Tuesday. Yet another amazing visit. I have ordered a wrong dish however there was absolutely no issue for a manger to change it for me. We will be back, thank you

Had a lovely meal at Koh Thai. Restaurant has a lovely cosy but lively ambience and the staff are attentive and friendly. Highly recommend

I used to come here a lot and loved it. Haven’t been for a few years but was really excited to enjoy the great food! Sadly the food was no where near as good as it used to be. The menu has changed to more...

Yummmi food and delicious dishes

Mrs. Wife and I enjoyed a date night out. The service is great, the location is convenient, and the food is a delight. I recommend trying the spicy wings. These have a real kick.

Another amazing meal. Our third visit and each as good as the first. Service and friendly and prompt, drinks were delicious and the food...well it is the best Thai I've ever had. Tastes even better than it looked. Highly recommend.

it was great service and great food, cocktails were super from the barman, will definitely be returning

Discovered this gem when trying to find somewhere to eat on a Bank Holiday Monday. Food was excellent, staff were attentive and welcoming and the ambience very up beat from a normal ‘pling pling’ background music Thai restaurant. Would happily return to enjoy another evening here.

Wasn't sure what to expect having seen recent mixed reviews on Tripadvisor. We had Chicken Satay and Red Dragon Ribs starters which for the price was very disappointing. The Mains, Koh Chicken Basil Stir Fry and Beef Cashew Stir Fry were both very tasty, but...

We came to this restaurant after looking at trip advisor reviews. Honestly can not believe how awful it was. I would not even give 1 star. We are not ones to complain but the service and food weren’t worth the ridiculous price we paid. We...

As a family with multiple food allergies we don’t eat out - koi Thai was great and a very special treat ! Ania the manager and our waitress was outstanding . She sat and gave us time to go through the menu in detail explaining...

For our last night in Poole with our extended family, we decided to have a Thai takeaway meal. We selected Koh Thai because it was well reviewed and its location in Lilliput was convenient. The menu was appetising and click+ collect ordering service worked well....

Normally one of our go-to Thai’s but the last visit was a bit of a disappointment. We ordered some crackers and had to ask for them after waiting 20mins. The crispy squid wasn’t that crispy and we waited an hour for our main to come...

Good food an wonderful cocktails 😋

We took friends to Koh Lilliput. It was very average and lacked speciality. The day we went there were no drinks available on tap, everything was bottle only so much more expensive. The food was ok but not outstanding. The restaurant itself looks very run down and worn/tires which is a real shame. We were left at the end of our meal for a very long time without anyone seeing if we wanted to look at a dessert menu or order coffees etc. The staffs attention seems more focussed on an endless collection ordering service for delivery. It feels like it needs a refit and refresh.

Really nice restaurant. Quite busy for a Weds night which is always a good indication of a good restaurant. Food was lovely with decent sized portions- (not sure why previous reviews said the portions were small! ) I liked the fact they didn’t rush us...

On a little trip with my Husband to Poole, staying in the Canford Cliffs area. I searched for a restaurant and Koh Thai popped up, menu looked great so booked via google. We ordered a few starters and 2 mains to share. It was INCREDIBLE!...

Lovely food plenty to choose from and decent portions

The best Thai food I’ve had in the UK and pretty sure ever. So authentic and flavourful. The staff all have the Thai hospitality and friendliness too 10/10 would recommend.

Lovely restaurant & staff nice but for the price of the main meals - £11-12 - the portion sizes are very small. A few bits of chicken or a few prawns & limited vegetables in them but lots of sauce. I mentioned it to a...

Excellent food, great service, very prompt. We love this restaurant and dine here regularly. A great choice of flavours and the food is always freshly cooked to order.

there is no bathroom and the one behind the kitchen is extremely dirty

The food and service were both first class, our only negative was a lack of sticky rice and Papaya salad! We would recommend the restaurant.

Super friendly and helpful staff and one of the best green curry's I've had - just disappointed I choice to share it with my husband :). I wasn't keen on the flavour of the padthai but that's probably just my preference. The salt and pepper squid was pretty good too although a bit more pepper in the batter would be even better next time pls :).

Excellent food! Truly great, delicious food! Really good service and a good price.

Best Thai I have had in some time, the kids loved it and I would recommend it to anyone! I recommend booking in the summer as it gets busy.

The food as always was its usual good standard… Irritating barking dog in the restaurant… we love dogs, but not barky ones in restaurants - seems to be a regular thing reading other reviews; belongs to the owner? odd! The restaurant itself is tired.. the tables are ‘sticky’ and need sanding and revarnishing or better still ,replacing… the chairs and seat pads were all ripped and very sad looking… we were a window seat with a view into the cellar…door wouldn’t close? Not great… Bulbs out in lights, paint work tired…. Needs some serious tlc… not the usual ‘together’ koi experience… perhaps Bournemouth is better?

We were all so looking forward to dinner here but unfortunately we found the food rather average. My husbands massaman curry was good but he’d had better. I chose the Seafood Udon which is classed as moderately spicy, but I couldn’t eat it as it...

OK food, had much nicer Thai food elsewhere. They allow dogs which is ok I guess if they are well behaved. There was a big dog in there who barked everytime a dog came past. Made us jump everytine. Staff ok but not overly friendly.

Have been going to this place for 9 years or so just moved back into walking distance, annoying the manager or owner always has his dog in there that barks at everything and everyone, he then had a friend with a yappy dog last night, put me right off the place, I go for ambience not dogs barking!!

Great evening meeting place with friends or family.

It was a spontaneous pick of this place as we were visiting Pool amd Sand Banks for the first time , we had great expiriance regarding food and taste of it , we have lpved evry single bite , untill the plates were empty ! Well done chef , service very good and place is nice and keept tidy , i will be definatley back there at some point .

Food was nice. Thai green curry a little on the sweet side. But very filling! Ambience was nice.

Lovely establishment, very friendly staff and outstanding food. Highly recommend.

Love it, our local haunt and there regularly. Consistent, great menu, never disappointed. Review updated (December 2022) - still going back there. Never had a poor meal and that's 10 years in. You will not be disappointed

The quality of the food is getting progressively worse. It’s more like a regular average quality Chinese whereas when it first opened you could see and taste the difference. For example - The noodles I had, had pre cooked chicken that was tossed onto the top of the noodles. No seasoning. Rubbery and grim. The ribs used to be delicious. Now they are fatty and average. Think twice before ordering as it’s full on pricing.

The food was amazing and the cocktails were even better, perfect espresso martini and an even better pornstar-martini. The barman was very friendly and the service was really good.

Great food and friendly staff. This restaurant has a very varied menu and we will definitely be back to try other dishes! Highly recommended,

Excellent food and very friendly staff . Didn't have to wait too long for the food to arrive . Would highly recommend this place .

Great food and friendly staff. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back!

Lovely food and great portion sizes. Wonderful service as well. One of the nicest thai food places I have been in . Highly recommend a visit

Had a takeaway and food was excellent.

service was poor, food was cold, did not tip as they didn't even check in to see if everything was ok... staff seemed more interested on playing on their phones and chatting each other. we won't be back.

We travelled 1hr 30mins to meet friends and visit this Thai restaurant..... we were not disappointed. The food is unbelievably good, best Thai food I have tasted. The restaurant interior is warm, modern and inviting. The staff were professional, efficient and friendly. Diffinately will be returning in the future.

Decided to go out for dinner there as had ordered delivery a few times and the green curry had been very good. Starter was the pork, which was unfortunately tasteless and also quite burnt / dry, but the waitress immediately said she’d take it off the bill which was good. I had the chicken basil stir fry but the rice came on the plate with all the sauce so it was all soggy, would think it should come in a bowl separately with the egg on top. Overall would probably order again on delivery for convenience but not worth the 4 star rating in my opinion.

The restaurant is lovely and we had a very nice table at the front of the restaurant. Staff were very nice and the initial service of taking our drinks and food order was great. However the waiting time for the food was nearly an hour...

Visited Lilliput Poole on a Friday Night ... Food Exellent when it eventually arrived. Staff were great overall but no warning about delays and we had to keep asking for our food. The business seemed to be more interested in the takeaway side and the bar than people dining. Would order a takeaway, but would not return for dining. Shame as lovely place.

Great food, not too big inside.

Byłam dwa razy. Warzywa w tempurze w porządku, kaczka wyglądała apetycznie, ale to tyle pozytywów, poprosiłam o sałatkę ze świeżych warzyw, dostałam parę listków sałaty, poszatkowaną marchewkę, cebulę i pomidora bez żadnego dressingu. Nie wiem dlaczego nie podają tam noży, mięso tak twarde i suche, że musielismy poprosić o nóż. Wystrój knajpy depresyjny, mało zachęcający, ciemno i nieprzyjemnie, do tego poszarpane poduszki i zniszczona tapicerka, przed lokalem chwasty. Takie miejsce chyba omijane przez klientów a obsługa raczej przyzwyczajona do pustki, bo kiedy przyszłam wszyscy byli na zapleczu i pi jakichś 15 minutach pani się zorientowała, że czekam na nią. Nie lubię wystawiać takich opinii, ale trudno doszukać się tam pozytywów.

first time visit here after reading good reviews and i wasn’t disappointed. great food and plenty of it. looking forward to going again when i’m next in the area.

Lovely food and great friendly staff. 100% recommend.

Amazing service & quality every time. Great vegan selection too !

일단 직원은 친절함. 커리맛은 기본적임. 단지 내용물이 좀 부실함. 똠양꿍은 절대 비추. 새우 비린내와 적은 내용물로 절대 비추. 가장 큰 문제는 자스민라이스가 죽밥이라는 것이다. 아마 밥을 실수 한것 같다. 물밥같은 밥에 커리는 정말 어울리지 않는다. 화장실또한 너무 지저분 하다.

I want to first off say that this is not about the food, as we didn’t get to taste any of it. We did not have a booking and we were greeted and given a table right away by friendly staff. We ordered drinks and...

The kitchen will taylor make meals to your taste within Thai limits.

Very rushed service. The rice was underdone and the beef was tough. My son was pleased with his meal and the mussels were very nice. No dessert options!

Best Thai we have had in a while The green curry is delicious

The starters were fantastic and nice and big, sorry to say the main course was not to my wife's taste not the restaurants fault, but when the waitress ask if she liked it and was told by my wife just a "bit to limey for...

Amazing food , many Vegetarian options , fresh and tasty! The waitress and waiter were great too! Highly recommend

Amazing food served as takeaway by the time we got back was still piping hot brilliant

I took my two children and hadn’t booked, you knew when you came in that it must be good as it was packed. Thankfully the lady who we first saw found us a table and we weren’t disappointed! Great food in a great restaurant, both...

If you like restaurants that serve tasty but tiny portions, combined with outrageous prices, this is the place for you. It used to be one of the best Thai restaurants that I have been to, with good value and decent sized portions. Since Covid, this restaurant has jumped on the bandwagon of 'shrinkflation' i.e. a lot less food plus higher prices. A glass of wine was £12 and avoid buying alchohol, to avoid 'bill anxiety' at the end of your meal.The food is still good and tasty, and apart from 'French cuisine' portions, also lacks the presentation and trimmings that used to accompany the dishes. Summary: This place used to be packed on Friday night and is now largely empty, due to people voting with their feet. Tip: Make sure that you go to Burger King afterwards, to ensure you don't go home still hungry.

Had a variety of dishes which were excellent

Great vegan options, really impressed. Good to eat in and for delivery

Last minute booking, they kindly squeezed in a family of five, we thought we’d over-ordered but the food was all so delicious, no problem! Particularly recommended the tamarind duck and the seabass with lemongrass sauce on the side. Enthusiastic and helpful service, happily sorted out...

Loved the place, food and staff were friendly. I had the chicken satay followed by Masamman Curry and plenty of cocktails. Very authentic.

Lovely food, but the restaurant is looking quite run down. The seats we were on were very tatty and clearly just need to be replaced or repaired. Also the menu online needs to be updated because it's cheaper compared to when we went which was disappointing.

Food delicious good service highly recommend 👍

Great atmosphere, really good service and excellent food. Four of us just had dinner on Saturday evening and everyone enjoyed the food. All super fresh, really well presented. Great value for money and we will be back soon.

Visited many Koh Thai restaurants and this was good. Good service, good food options and a reasonable selection of drinks. It’s priced for the area though so don’t expect a mid priced Thai dinner!

We were staying at one of the hotels in sandbanks this weekend which was lovely but the food at the hotel was tasteless and boring. We were so lucky to have found this place, just a 20 minute walk away. The place was buzzing and we hadn’t booked but the staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavour, a treat for the tastebuds. Cocktails were great too. Highly recommend this place…we told about three people about it on our walk back to our hotel! 👍😁
