Ma Yom Thai Restaurant in Angus

Place didn’t smell good. Service was miserable and food tasteless. Sharing platter was straight out of the freezer.

Amazing food, great service Sherie made fabulous cocktails. A big thank you to all of the staff ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I lived in Thailand for many years so am always happy to find authentic Thai food in Scotland. Ma Yom's Thai chefs produced the best Pad Thai I've had since I was last in Chiang Mai. A thoroughly enjoyable experience and I'm looking forward to the next visit.

Hidden gem, first class, everything about this restaurant is fantastic will certainly come back. It was recommended by a friend and what a great recommendation.

Always a great experience, can't fault it. Love making memories at Ma Yom

Excellent food and service. Thank you 😊

Very busy. Food was ok but not great, all almost the same just slightly different sauce. I cannot say I enjoyed mine which was 'sweet and sour' if I remember but the other seemed to enjoy theirs. The couple with us, from Montrose, said it was one of the best in the area. I feel sorry for Montrose. The restaurant is up a winding fairly steep stairway, not great for those with bad knees. Personally I would not go back by our friends certainly would.

Really delicious food and a great find. They made us all feel very welcome. The only downside was the lighting which was just too bright. Dim those lights and it'll be perfect!

Hidden down a ginnel on the southern end of the High Street (although well signposted). The entrance is a little unprepossessing but once inside it's a revelation: a very modern and well appointed interior. The menu is not too big (but bigger than shown on the website) which I consider a good sign. A smaller menu suggests that everything will be cooked fresh and the food we ordered was delicious. The fish cakes were just as I remember them from travelling in Thailand and all three of us were delighted with the food and service. Next time I'm in Montrose I'll definitely be dining here again and thoroughly recommend Ma Tom - the best restaurant in Montrose in my opinion.

Superb Thai food. A gem of a restaurant

Best Thai food I've eaten outside of Thailand. It's a shame I can't come more often because I was only here on vacation!

When my wife and I entered the restaurant we were greeted by an unsmiling stern manager,who just asked "Have you booked" We ordered our meals a bottle of beer and a small glass of wine. We were given a 250ml glass of ordinary Chardonnay,that cost £9:00 ,a disgrace for that basic establishment. We can't fault the curries but the portion of rice for two was VERY small would hardly suitable for one person never mind two . We will never be back David Mackenzie

Reasonable selection of starters and main courses- expertly cooked and presented. ‘Interesting’ approach to the restaurant, up an alleyway, up some stairs and……you transition from rather bleak surroundings, outside, to a very pleasant and attractive up market resistant. Good selection of starters and mains, very well cooked and nicely presented. One of the best pad Thai’s we’ve had, a lovely red curry and Thai chilli basil. All in all a very pleasant meal and worth structuring our day around this, visiting Donnett Castle and House of Dun.

Food and service were great. Clean and pleasant restaurant with fresh food. Professional and friendly staff. Entrance to building could be improved but don’t be put off by this.

This is a lovely restaurant.We had the mixed starter,Pineapple red thai curry and Pad thai.Delicious fresh tasting food,lovely service.We go back every time we are in Montrose.

Delicious food and reasonable prices

Been Here twice ow every Time got food poisoning was ill for day

Excellent and friendly Thai restaurant. We had a green curry and pad Thai, both excellent, they had a decent IPA on draught. Nice atmosphere , highly recommended.

Excellent Thai restaurant, friendly welcome, good service and very tasty food, recommended.

Prompt Service and delicious food

From the first welcome to the bye byes we were treated with respect, caring and excellent service. The food was so tasty my son and I loved it though it was new to us. Thoroughly recommend Ma Yom in Montrose.

We've been here several times. Always, fresh, delicious and authentic, Thai food. Can't fault it. If you've not been, you're missing out.

Up in Montrose on business first time here and not disappointed. Had the red pineapple curry and coconut rice really nice, nice surroundings in the hotel staff very helpful and pleasant

A peaceful, polite and welcoming place to enjoy quality Thai cuisine. A good blend of menu options, simple but tasty deserts and a quiet setting. The backgound music was suitable and tasteful, the decor simple and clean with lots of space around the tables. We'll be coming again!

This place is best place eat in Montrose . Me and my family eat here regularly and food is always delicious.and icecream amazing 🤩

Excellent Thai food and very friendly staff. We were celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary and really enjoyed out visit. Nice atmosphere and busy for a Thursday night so recommend to book.

Food is always fantastic, ice cream is the best I've ever had, best place to eat in town, you will not be disappointed.

The food was fantastic, portion size was just right, table service good and price was very reasonable.

Great food and great service. Five of us dined here for my birthday and everyone ordered a different meal. All gave 5 stars. Wee gem in Montrose.

Was there a few nights ago, not sure what to expect, bit worried it might be a bit spicy for me, but was delicious, had the sweet and sour chicken, highly recommend a visit 😋

Don't be put off by the dubious entrance. Once inside the decor is smart, with friendly, helpful staff. Food was delicious with generous portions, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal here!

Amazing food! Absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back. They also do takeaway.

The entry to the restaurant is unprepossessing, however once upstairs in the restaurant itself it is lovely, the staff welcoming and the food is out of this world.

Fantastic food and experience. Kimg prawns were lovely and soft 😁

Outstanding service, setting and food

Serve well enough thai food. Tomyum is tasty. It can improve on the speed of service, food come slow, but well probably real thai food need time to prepare as they are not on a big scale i guess. Starter taste good but small portion.

My colleague and I had the vegetable green curry, which was fragrant and full of different vegetables, and the garlic and black pepper chicken, which was juicy and delicious! The restaurant itself is lovely and spacious with a nice ambiance, and the staff were very attentive. Highly recommended if you are in Montrose!

This was our first trip to Ma Yom and we loved it. Delicious food. Very nice dining room, immaculately presented with fresh flowers on every table. Warm and inviting on a cold night. Friendly and very professional service. Couldn't fault it. Will be back!

Met up with friends (5 of us) for food in Montrose; not a very promising situation. Ma Yom was excellent. We were greeted at the door and ushered through to a really lovely dining room. Ordered wine while scanning the menu - the wine was good. People and food arrived and both were great. I had tempura prawns which were as good as I’ve had followed by Panang Thai Red chicken. Tremendous!! My wife had coconut soup and it was brilliant, sweet and spicy. Great night. I had 3 courses and I’ve forgotten how much wine but I thought £45 (which included a decent tip) per head was good value too. Will definitely go again.

Just had a carryout from Ma Yoms the best in town by far .taste and flavour mmmmmm

The food is always excellent and the service is prompt. Always good food in Ma Yom and such a lovely friendly atmosphere.

1st time there ... will be back

Wow what a delicious meal! Had a fantastic night out with friends. Delicious food, can’t wait to go back. Cocktails were really good too. Staff all super helpful, friendly and efficient. Really impressed!

Went for a birthday. Place was nice and service reasonably good. Some of the younger staff seemed less aware of their own menu. Food wise starters were OK, we had mixed platter. I had the stir fry maim which was marked as spicy- very disappointing as it was bland. Lacked any kick. My partner had the red curry and it was a lot better. Overall place was ok, felt pricy for montrose (aberdeen prices ) if I had loved the food price would been less important

Service was really slow. It was a busy Saturday night, but we had to wait for cutlery after our food was delivered. We then waited 25 minutes for ice cream that was then delivered to the wrong table. After asking for the bill I noticed we were being charged for a drink we didn't have. Aside from the service, the food was average and came out warm, not hot. Won't be returning.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. The restaurant is inside the Hotel Carlton and one needs to walk around to the hotel entrance on the back of the building to enter it. It is at the top of a flight of stairs so not great for people with mobility issues. The staff was very friendly and the service excellent. The red Thai curry was outstanding while the ginger beef was lackluster, not having an abundance of flavor.

First floor of The Carlton Hotel, entrance from the back. Excellent tasty food and friendly and attentive personal, friendly ambience.

Hidden above an unprepossessing hotel entrance on the high street is this fantastic Thai restaurant. Delicious starters and mains, and nice strong cocktails! Friendly staff and stylish decor too. Would highly recommend.

Very good food and very friendly service! Clear recommendation!

Nice cosy place. Service very friendly and fast, good food. I wouldn’t say the dishes blew my mind, but I would go back.

We visited for the first time on Friday night. The place is bright and tastefully decorated - in a stark contrast to the old hotel and downstairs entrance. We were given a warm welcome on arrival. After being offered drinks, we ordered our meals. We shared the mixed platter to start. Delicious! Every bit … even the sauces. Next I had the red Thai curry, my husband had the garlic / chilli / basil with beef, and we shared noodles. Portions are generous, but not too much. We could not fault our meals - flavours, textures, smell … {chef’s kiss}. We had a rest before having the banana fritters - one with vanilla, the other with coconut ice cream. Divine!! Finally, we had a couple of cocktails - an espresso martini, and a French martini. Again, faultless! Proper cocktails. We look forward to our next visit.

Excellent Thai food good attentive staff and lovely ambience I will definitely be back

Excellent Thai food , very pleasant and attentive staff , nice cocktails ! Back ground Thai music it gives you that Asian vibe and Thai authenticity ! Bit pricey but is great food so is all worth ! We will be back ! I couldn’t...

A wonderful place. From the time we entered, the staff made us feel so welcome, and chatted to us as if we were old friends. The food was absolutely delicious and spot on for taste and portions. Even our young children enjoyed it. The egg...

A beautiful meal. ADelight in the town

If you're in Montrose, you need to eat here. The staff are warm, welcoming and very friendly. The food was hands down the best I've ever had, not just Thai but the actual best I'be ever had. I'll be returning as often as I can....

Dropped by for a take-away: I had looked at the menu previously so knew that the Red Curry I wanted was £12.75 (chicken), at the top end of what Thai restaurants charge, and (oddly) the same price as for a sit-in meal. However, the curry...

Visited yesterday (Thursday) for a 6.30pm dinner. There's no sign to tell you where to go in but once through the back door of this dilapidated-looking former hotel situated in unpromising grotty un-swept close you go up the newly carpeted winding staircase to find yourself...

Some of the best Thai I have had in Scotland

Was expecting good things from this Thai but was left disappointed. Staff took so long to take our drinks order. No tofu!! Which I was find to be madness in a Thai restaurant. Vegetarian option was just veg and there was no way enough of it. Well well over priced. Staff were friendly though. Wouldn't return unfortunately

Great thai restaurant. We had the specials for that evening which were really tasty and filling. Will go back to try more of the menu.

Another lovely meal... this is a GEM of a restaurant, beautiful food and cocktails Thoroughly recommend a visit....👌

Quality from start to finish. Great atmosphere, great drinks and great food.

The moment you walk through the door you are in a family friendly environment.excellent service and lovely helpful staff. One of the major problems is ,I could eat most of the meals so it’s hard to choose. Until the next time , thanks guys

Today we celebrated our anniversary. We chosed this restaurant because we like thai food . To b honest we thought that it will be another Chinese fast food pretendent thai food . However, we were surprised. Food was made in traditional Thai style, and has not a bit of monosodium glutamate. So you can enjoy the natural taste. We definitely recommended .

We have been several times to Ma Yom Thai and everytime the food and service are excellent. Cocktails are definitely worth trying too.

Excellent staff and food was superb. Couldn't fault this place. Lovely environment to sit in and enjoy your meal. Will definitely be returning.

I never leave reviews but this restaurant has become a favourite of ours due to the quality food, fantastic service and buzzing atmosphere (not forgetting the French martinis!) We love to visit as a treat as a couple or if that isn’t possible, we have...

Excellent food as usual, been here a few times and food is amazing. Cocktails are also fantastic and would highly recommend

This time we had a take away, unusual that a take away I'd just as good as a sit in meal... lovely atmosphere when you do sit in though and the cocktails are just as good a reason as the food to keep returning

Been here a good few times now and never disappointed. Gorgeous restaurant, brilliant staff. Great drinks selection, would definitely recommend a cocktail (or two!) They're lovely and beautifully presented. Food is AMAZING. Would highly recommend and will be back.

First class food & service, have visited Ma Yom restaurant on a number of occasions now and have enjoyed each and every visit, food is freshly prepared and beautifully presented. Mixed platter starter for two is my recommendation as it gives you a taste of...

Birthday dinner on a Sunday evening. Lovely service, picked up that hubby likes cashew nuts so put in extra. Got a white rose as a birthday token. Food was great - delicate flavours, mixed starter I could eat again, even coconut icecream at the end...

Amazing! Having had quite a few takeaways, which were always fantastic, we really wanted to experience the restaurant too and eating in was even better! Service is brilliant and very family friendly. The cocktails were amazing and the food was delicious! A must visit in...

We have visited Ma Yom several times and made use of the delivery service. The food is always fabulous - I particularly like the mixed platter starter and red Thai curry - and the cocktails are amazing! The restaurant setting is lovely and the staff...

Excellent place with great food and great staff. Visited on many occasions one of my favourite places to eat out. Offer a great carry out service also but we prefer the sit in experience.

Authentic food, awesome cocktails, friendly service, beautiful place… just a fantastic wee gem in Montrose!

I arranged a delivery of several dishes for myself and elderly friend to try as she had never experienced Thai food before. We had us a mini banquet! The food was amazing, we both really enjoyed it. My favourite was the Red Thai curry. I...

We have enjoyed takeaways from Ma Yom Thai which were delicious but had not been to dine in. We decided to visit for our anniversary in November, it was a Wednesday evening and it was a nice relaxing enjoyable meal with amazing cocktails 🍹. The...

Had a truly excellent meal at Ma Yoms. Food was delicious and service excellent. Could not fault anything. Certainly will be going back.

Only just found out about this place situated in the Carlton. We went in Sunday night and the food was excellent and the staff very friendly. Looking forward to going back and trying some other things on the menu.

Attentive and friendly staff and lovely food , would recommend 😊 had a lovely meal last night , was a very enjoyable experience

Delicious food and very attentive staff, will be back.

Had a super meal here as part of a quick stopover whilst in the area playing golf.... Lovely red curry, perfect rice and good flavours, gluten free is no real issue, several dishes were offered and the staff aware of dietary requirements....

Lovely staff, lovely surroundings and fabulous food.

Ever since Ma Yom Thai opened I’ve never wanted to dine anywhere else when visiting back home. Gary and his staff are sooo dedicated and make this dining experience even more memorable. The food is simply divine, pricing is excellent and great value for money...

Absolutely fantastic food and service. First visit and will definitely be back. Highly recommended. Thank you for a lovely evening Gary and staff. 🙏🌹

Enjoyed a beautiful meal here tonight with friends. Staff were lovely, helpful and friendly whilst being very professional. Food beautifully cooked and presented. Great cocktails. Can't wait to return.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at the Ma Yom. Food was excellent, service and set up were also top notch. Great asset for Montrose!

A little gem…..the food was delicious and very authentic. The drinks were well executed also, which is always important when you’re an avid gin gal! Service was spot on and very attentive…the only thing to make it better for me would be to bring in...

Out with a dear friend tonight,staff lovely,very attentive,cocktails fab,food fab and very tasty,will definitely be back again.😊😊

A lovely restaurant, with friendly, helpful staff. Quick service with amazing food. Highly recommend.

Had a fantastic meal at Ma Yom on Friday night, very friendly and helpful staff and the food is amazing. Would recommend Ma Yom to anyone and will definitely be back. Montrose is very fortunate to have such a great place to eat.

The take- aways from Ma Yom Thai Restaurant were recommended by friends and we were delighted to try it as the curry could not have been better. We will definitely go back as the food was superb.
