Malagor Fine Thai Cuisine in Wakefield

Gorgeous food, good service, definitely come again

We arrived on Sunday expecting Thai food ‘ we decided to order the banquet for 2 we ordered banquet b which was the most popular meal according to Ben the manager i have eaten in many Thai restaurants in uk and Thailand many times and this was by far the worst meal I have ever eaten . There was no seasoning it was bland and flavourless. I complained to the waitress and she said she would give feedback but never happened. We left the restaurant feeling empty and sent most of the food back .the following day my girl phoned up and spoke to Ben the manager and he offered a 10 percent of the next meal which was a insult. I will never return to this restaurant.

Went to Malagor for my birthday, the food was amazing as always! Highly recommended to everyone! There is a decent amount of parking but can sometimes get a bit crowded. There is plenty of room inside though and lots of staff around to cater for everything.

Most a amazing Thai food I've ever had.

We went for the Sunday buffet and it was Ok but not worth a second visit

Second time here, amazing authentic food, great service, will be back!

Outstanding meal at Malagor last night. #Finecuisine#Service#Atmosphere simply amazing Would Highly recommend They have also reintroduced the popular Buffet on a Sunday so will also give this a try next time.

We have visited Malagor or several occasions, we always really enjoy the gorgeous food, we have tried many dishes and all have them have been Delicious. I only have one small negative that I think every time we visit. I really wish they would make the atmosphere feel More authentic Thai , such as Thai music playing and Thai clothing for the waiting staff etc. Also Thai decor inside and out. I feel this would have the finishing touches to make this restaurant feel like a perfect Authentic Thai evening out. The food is absolutely gorgeous, can’t fault it , just a shame it lacks a little atmosphere.

Poor service, food is good but we went in tonight to be told by the young girl server to sit at the bar and she would check if there’s seating upstairs. 15 minutes later still sat at the bar and see her chatting to one of the other staff, had clearly forgotten about us. Took the gentleman at the bar to remind her, came back over to say I don’t know when a table will be available, no apology for forgetting about us. Won’t go back in again, takes 5 seconds to check if there’s a table. ———- To the owner who has since left a response, Which I cannot respond to directly and are therefore editing my original message.. that response is embarrassing, and making things up is even more embarrassing. Firstly, Where does it say anywhere that booking a reservation is a prerequisite. And where in my review is me mentioning the lack of tables being available a problem, it’s the service or lack of, not the fact that there’s no tables. Also, accusing me of “intimidating” anyone is embarrassing and simply not true. Your waitress did not come back.. I had to chase her and there was no “intimidation” we simply said it’s poor to be forgotten about and left, you shouldn’t fabricate a story. As a the owner I would expect better, especially since you weren’t there, and if your CCTV has sound you’d know that I was polite, especially considering the garbage service and been kept waiting for 15 minutes and clearly being forgotten about, with your staff more interested in chatting than looking after customers in a busy restaurant. No wonder your staff have no customer service..when the owner has 0 class with that response. Embarrassing! Also, how would you know who I was from this review..probably viewing the wrong footage as I didn’t reference a time of attendance in my response. Perhaps focus on your service rather than watching CCTV..

Party of 7 no complaints from anyone all good

Menu has a mixture of all your Thai favourites plus a load of unusual Thai Dishes which are great (try the Hoi Tod Fried Mussel starter!) Service is very good, fast and friendly, and good value as well.

Ate here last night with my family, we was celebrating my son's GCSE results. Three of us opted for the banquet (D) and the others ordered off the normal menu. The food from the normal menu was absolutely beautiful, taste and presentation was amazing. The banquet style food left a lot to be desired, what was served to us was deep fried frozen starters, the soup was uncooked veg and rubbery prawns swimming in coconut milk. The main courses were absolutely revolting, clumped rice and watery slop on plates and the fish still had scales on it. When this was brought to the attention of the staff they just removed our food from the tables and said they'd speak to the chefs. We were offered the exact same meals as a replacement and told it would come out the same, and that the chefs tasted the food and it was "fine". After explaining we didn't want the exact same thing as it wasn't nice the first time the manager Ben was called to discuss what to do. My mum and partner dealt with him over the phone and he was just defensive and rude. The toilets were also blocked, to which the staff argued they weren't and proceeded to lock them and put out of order signs on. Was an awful experience will not recommend this place to anyone as it's never seen "fine dining" in its life and the service was diabolical. Argumentative staff and disgusting food.

Banquet absolutely disgusting and disappointed after reading reviews this isn't fine dining, if this is fine dining you would let contactors who are still dressed for work to sit and eat, the banquet was really bad thrown together but I ordered off the main menu and mine came out I looked and it looked beautiful and the taste was amazing so why when ordering of the menu it comes out looking amazing but if you opt for banquet it looks like crap,

We came here last night to celebrate my son's GCSE results, 3 people ordered banquet and it was very disappointing the rice was rock hard the food from the banquet looked horrendous and be better quite fair I think the homeless would turn there nose up at myself and my younger son ordered from the main menu our food when it came out looked amazing and the taste was beautiful so when the staff was questioned we was told it was all fresh, if that was fresh rice it wasn't fresh, so after speaking with Ben the owner and we had said we would pay for the food that was edable he became very aggressive and said he would contact the police the bill was paid and we left, Really bad experience for my kids as two aren't keen on Thai. Fine dining I don't think so,

Buffet looked awesome had some lovely food here

Food was great although my partner ordered duck that was extremely dry. Biggest let down was £22 for a bottle of house red that I wouldn't have paid more than £11 for even from a restaurant. Edit - The wine was simply not worth what we paid, even for a restaurant. Also, based off what you said, you could serve people the driest meat possible and claim it to be ok as long as there was more sauce. Lol. Not sure it should work like that but hey... what do I know. Also my partner did notice the time it took to make our food which all came out at the same time (starters and mains) was very quick, less than 8 mins after we ordered. We would have been more than happy to wait for the food to be made properly, it wasn't that busy either, 6 other tables tops.

Very good restaurant. Not street food style of serving. Zero complaints of quality, could possibly make the quantity a little larger. Would definitely recommend. Pleasant decor and ambiance. And a few years later what a change, it's yellowing electric wires over the ceiling said it all, stuck in time. . A very tired menu, and what feels like a very pared back use of traditional Thai ingredients (if any) (save me from the carrots please). Grubby cardboard specials menus, so off putting. Time for a rethink...........a revamp and an update. Front service staff were pleasant enough. For one of the few Thai restaurants in the area it needs to shine brightly, unfortunately the lights have gone out.

Great place for a meal. The team members are kind, helpful, and friendly. And the food is fantastic

Always good service and food here, we go once every six months for a business dinner. its never changed and everyone likes it. It easily accommodates larger groups and that never affects the good service. Drinks menu is good too and the atmosphere is always just right

Having visited Thailand recently I now know how authentic the food here is. I’ve eaten at many Thai restaurants in the UK but none come close to authentic as the Malagor. Many return visits planned. (Clearly the recent 1 star review by someone with a hidden name and only one review should be deleted)

Food is always delicious. Freshly cooked with an amazing flavour 😋

Great food as usual. Good the see the Sunday Buffet returning, spicy prawn soup is my favorite dish. Staff all very polite and see your drinks are served promptly.

Excellent food, very well priced, excellent staff, just understaffed. Would I go again, defo, would I recommend to friends, absolutely. 😀👍

Gordon Ramsey would drop dead if he ate or even saw the monstrosity on the plate it was soaked in grease the crackers taste like something died on them the meat has a weird aftertaste and the veg was too soft but some of it was also too hard The outside of the building was just a extreme red flag mossed my appetite walking to the building the only good thing about this experience was the staff were decent people and nice but that’s it . decor is tacky

Wanted to have a chill out evening snd had driven past previously when I was in the area. NOT DISAPOINTED...FOOD AMAZING, FLAVOURS SO ON POINT , GREAT SERVICE. Loved it and will be back.

Friday was our third visit to Malagor and we've always had a wonderful time. The staff are attentive, friendly and super organised. The tables are well spread out so you don't feel cramped. The food is gorgeous, freshly made and beautifully presented every time. This evening I had the tempura prawns as starter and crispy seabass as main. Both cooked to perfection with delicious accompaniments. A fabulous way to start the weekend.

Gorgeous food lovely staff and atmosphere highly recommended

Says that it is open on Sunday at lunchtime, it isnt. I have seen their reply and I will alter my original review as they now tell me that they are open. On Google it says they are open 12-8:30pm so I drove there, I was was sat in their car park at 2:20pm when I called as it looked closed and was told the kitchen was closed until 5pm. Due to their rude response I don't think I'll be visiting any time soon.

Despite advertising on here and on Google that they are open Sunday from 12-8:30pm (Google) and 12-9pm on here they are not. I travelled to the restaurant and called at 2:20pm to order a takeaway (I was sat in the carpark) only to be told that the kitchen was closed until 5pm. When I offered this as a review on Google I received a very unprofessional reply from the restaurant. If this is an indication of how they treat people I will give this place a miss.

Excellent food, only issue was not all meals in party (party of 4) turning up at same time, but on the plus side all food very good, and excellent service

Very nice meal and polite staff.

The restaurant has lot of parking outside and is a large, grandly-decorated venue to enjoy some good Thai food, as well as tasty quality drinks. It looked a great place for parties/groups to dine in and they have a pretty terrace for when it’s warmer, to enjoy dining Al Fresco. When I arrived just after opening time on a Saturday I was the first in the building! Unfortunately it didn’t get much busier on our visit, with other another party of about 6 people attending lunch time. Even though it wasn’t busy, service was a tad slow at times, but apart from that we couldn’t fault our visit. We all opted for the Thai Tapas Weekend Lunch offering; 3 mini Thai dishes and a side for £9.95. This is a real bargain as we were all satisfying full – great value for money. I went with; Chicken Satay – yummy but I would have liked more peanut sauce without asking for extra as it was fairly dry Duck Spring Rolls – crispy and tasty Sweetcorn Cakes – a popular choice as we all went with these and they were delicious! Soft Noodles – my favourite and these were cooked with a little egg & spring onion and were so good, especially mixed with the sweet spicy dip the dish came with. I ate just about every last bit and washed it down with a virgin Mojito – YUM YUM!

I’ve eaten here before and really enjoyed the freshly prepared and varied dishes. But I have to say it was really disappointing this time. We ordered the banquet for two (not cheap) the first course was OK, though nothing special, but the mains were dreadful. The food wasn’t hot enough. Meat dishes were overcooked. Stir fried vegetables felt like they’d been reheated. Nothing seemed freshly prepared. It really seemed like a second rate take away, not a restaurant quality experience. We didn’t order a dessert.

Very disappointed. The restaurant was cold & remained cold. Turn on or turn up the heating! Our table was in a draft. The staff were attentive & friendly. The decor is nice. I did not like the background music. I prefer authentic music. It was more pop/disco. The food was not the best thai I've had and underwhelmed really. We used to go regularly & feel that it is not as good since it changed hands.

First time here and a really enjoyable meal. We had the banquet for two, really good choice and had the left overs boxed up to take home. Nicely laid out and nice space between the tables. Car parking available. Would definitely recommend.

Over priced, poor service, cold food, wrong order, not suitable for Coeliac's. I was so disappointed that this place hadn't lived up to my expectations. We visited on a Saturday night and it was really busy so expectations where high. We had to ask for more drinks, our order came out wrong, a lot of the food was cold and we sent it back, they definitely aren't gluten free it's says so on their menu. We even had to chase them for the bill. The food was quite flavourless, except for the pile of chilli's on top. I risked the soup which was full of sliced lemongrass so it was like getting a mouth full of tree bark. Poor overpriced, don't waste your money.

If I’m honest, I’m not a lover of Thai food. In fact, I hate it. I had vommed on my previous Thai experiences. But I really like this place, the staff are friendly, the food is good and the ambiance is ****ing special. Glad I gave it a try and had an open mind.

We regularly visit Malagor or get takeaway. Food is always delicious and well presented. Love the starters especially. Great service too.

Christmas Eve meal with my husband. Unfortunately food was not up to our expectations and we will not be returning

Always a great meal! Lots to choose from and there is a kids menu which has smaller dishes. My little boy had chicken satay and egg fried price and a chocolate brownie for pud! Great decor, friendly staff

I've been here several times. I love the massaman here. The wife had the weeping tiger steak as this is great. I tried something different and went for the tamarind duck, which was juicey and tender but had a sweet and crispy coating. I think it needed something else to cut through the sweetness like some rice or chips.

Dint feel the meal was enough for me and the food itself didn't have enough flavour for me. Service was ok. The lighting is a little weird for me and felt a little dark and struggled to read the menu . The car park is horrendous and people just abandon their car so if driving be carful where you park.

From start to beginning our experience at Malagar was more than the rating we could give them.The staff at the restaurant offered five star service, including the two ladies that were our waitresses, nothing was too much trouble and they made our experience even more so.We have eaten in many restraunts all over the world, but this is one of the best restraunts we have eaten in for the staff, food and surroundings!As it was my special Birthday they made it even more memorable for myself and family! Even though they had closed(which we were unaware of) they didn’t rush us away!! A must place for anyone to go to and we will be visiting again!! You must go as then you will appreciate our review!!

Just OK, but I am a picky eater and expect something better than what I could cook at home.. Steak salad starter had a lovely flavoursome accompanying broth that was across the dish, but the cut of what was supposed to be sirloin was full of fat, not rendered, and some of the sliced-up steak was 70%+ fat.. so I had to leave about one third of the meat.. The cut or choices made by the chef on the steak, just felt lazy. I then had the Khao Son (I think that was its name) coconut curry soup for the main, which wasn't a soup, tasted a bit bland, and was more just a chicken satay with some noodles.. Nice place though and okay service, just could be better...

I have only dined here once for the lunch tapas offer, so my review is limited and my experience was nice but nothing special which is why currently I've scored everything a 3. I have heard mixed reviews about this place but would be willing to dine from there again. The restaurant has lot of parking outside and is a large, grandly-decorated venue to enjoy some nice Thai food, as well as tasty quality drinks. It looked a great place for parties/groups to dine in and they have a pretty terrace for when it’s warmer, to enjoy dining Al Fresco.

Great Thai restaurant. Lots of choices and generous portion sizes. Highly recommended

Highly recommend. Place is great and food even better! Very friendly staff!

Brilliant food, welcoming staff and warm environment.

Like this place a lot excellent food and service but no chips lol 😆 doesn't put me off going though very nice

Really nice food and friendly staff. 😋

Great service and the food was not only great, but the portions very generous.

Upon arrival the car park was small and busy, we expected it to be very busy but when we went inside it was quiet. The decor was dark and unpleasant. The table settings were nice and the chair was comfortable but on the booth I don’t believe the cushions were necessary. The drinks we ordered came very quickly and the homemade lemonade was delicious (£4.50). This review is of Banquet B- Our starter came and was to a very high standard, presentation was wonderful and at first sight my expectations were high. We didn’t need to wait long between starter and main courses which I do like when I visit a restaurant, the waiter explained everything as it was placed on the table. So, we ate and found that the beef was a little chewy, as we had finished our mains and the waiter came to clear the table we explained our problem and the response we got shocked us, “that’s a shame” this was the response we got. Just a warning, the prices on the menus online are different to the prices at the restaurant. Not by much only £3 but when we mentioned this to staff they didn’t seem aware. The experience from the waiter, she was very quiet and sometimes hard to hear. When we came to the end of our of our meal we did ask for the bill to be split and as requested the bill was spilt and we was offered 2 receipts. Overall, the presentation was good. Food was average, drinks were nice but pricey. We did enjoy our time there but unfortunately we don’t think we would return to Malagor.

Had family meal. Great thai, friendly staff. Food consistently good .

Food quality was poor could have cooked better from home. Tempura king prawns weren’t tempura king prawns more like something out of a frozen packet. Chicken and broccoli in oyster sauce had no taste, broccoli was not fresh. Top prices and poor quality food . I would not recommend. At no point were we asked how the food was I think the waiters already knew.

satay starter was pleasant. Not quite sure why the toast was included. 39. Gai Yang - Grilled Chicken, was a very tender half chicken with what was essentially a chicken rub that was slightly slippery. It came o huge board with a supermarket packet salad and lovely sauce in a small pt and sticky rice. All very boring. My partner had the chilli chicken which had all the makings of a decent take away. Paid for separate rice. He said it was ok. It tasted ok. All in all it was underwhelming. The chilli chicken was not very large. My husband ate some of my chicken. I came home hungry. Over priced. Staff were ok

Good menu,didn't have to wait long.

Fully recommend, clean, friendly ,well presented, yummy food, plenty of choice.

What a splendid meal. Beautifully presented delicious food with attentive serving staff. Recommend the steamed Sea Bass.

We had a great time at Malagor with friends on a busy Saturday evening. Our table wasn’t ready when we arrived a little early for our 7.45pm booking so we sat in the bar and had a drink whilst we looked at the menus. We were seated in a nice window table. The starters arrived promptly, satay chicken, ribs, mixed satay and the grilled pork. All the starters were really nice and quite filling. For main both couples had the weeping tiger and the chicken stir fry chilli basil. I was a little disappointed with the weeping tiger. We had asked for one medium rare and one medium well done. There was hardly any difference and the meat was completely pink, almost red throughout. I only just ended up having the ends which were a bit more well done. My partner didn’t complain as he had nearly all of it! Also not sure what is Thai about a big battered onion ring but it was nice all the same. The chicken was really good. So spicy, a little too much for my friend! All the rices and sauces were also excellent. Drink are quite reasonably I feel. A bottle of rose was £20.95 and the two for £12 cocktails were also good. We enjoyed a few of these on the outside terrace after our meal where the heavens well and truly opened! For a while it was like being in Thailand and it still warm enough to sit out. Shame there isn’t a bit more in the area to go for drinks but it was an enjoyable night and I’d be happy to return.

Thoroughly recommend the lunches. Slightly reduced menu choice but usual excellent food, service - and wine.

The food came out together as we requested very quickly, however went cold quite quickly. The waitress swapped it all for us even though we only asked for them to heat the food up a bit. Excellent service!

Visited yesterday for my sons birthday, there was 9 of us, the service was great, friendly staff, and they were accommodating of a few changes to the kids meals. The food was delicious. Highly recommend

Fabulous evening, beautiful food, great service in lovely restaurant.

Excellent food, very tasty, our server was excellent/friendly and helpful, I have a seafood allergy and he suggested alternatives which worked for me, thanks.

Very good quality food and service

The tapas deal was excellent value and very tasty. It is a very pleasant restaurant and we will be back!

Lovely food, good service and reasonably priced

We had a spot on meal with lits of small plates and medium sized plates with lota of different dishes. And the best bit... having been to Thailand I can assure you the flavours are spot on. 👌

Just beautiful the whole experience was great. Our server was so lovely and helpful and food was amazing. We even took enough home for another meal ! Highly recommend

Bought two starter meals for around £6 each, chicken skewers and bbq ribs. The portion sizes were disgusting really for the prices, as well as the actual meat on them. I received 5-6 ribs with 3/4 of it just being bone, with one of them literally just a bone with NO meat on it at all. Very disappointing, will not be coming back.

Visited last night a party of 6 of us. I've not visited since it was a pub years ago. As others have said there is a smell in the foyer as you walk in, this disappears once you enter the restaurant. Lovely inside, plenty of room. Excellent service from attentive staff. Food really good and cooked to taste. They made 3 dishes milder for some in our party. Worth a visit.

Entering the restran is a smell that hits you damp horrible foysty..as you walk in .food always nice but I think a bit expensive for what you get .I always have samon then rice this samon comes with a sause that's all...lovely staf ..

First time here after hearing great reviews. Cannot fault it decent portion sizes , good prices and lovely service

Nice food as usual but entrance foyer smells rank and damp. Not a nice welcome before you eat. Needs sorting fast.

Food was fantastic. Service a bit hit & miss but wonder if they were short as one woman seemed to be doing loads!

Authentic thai cuisine. Great Tom-yum with prawn £6.95 reasonable portion size Lunch Menu is very affordable. Good portion Moo Ping Panang £9.5 Flavourful skewers

Never on time for take out orders, 3/3 times waiting more than 20+ mins after it was meant to be ready.

Very tasty food good menu choices very pleasant staff would definitely recommend trying we have been twice in a very short space of time we like it very much!! Also a good choice of different alcoholic beverages to choose from if you fancy a drink they had a good selection of gins which was good!

Been 2 weeks on the trot FOOD IS BEAUTIFUL STAFF EXCELLENT DEFINITELY BE BACK NEXT WEEK

A tasty meal that was lovely to look at as well as eat.I would recommend to anyone. Lots of parking spaces.

Just had a family dinner for my birthday and it was excellent! Very tasty and fresh food, coupled with a gin or two, with very attentive and friendly staff made for a wonderful evening. Recommend 💯%

Terrific food, amazing ambience!!! 2 for 1 drink specials! A must go for date night or just to treat yourself or have a great night out with your friends and or special love one

We have been going to Malagor for years now , only 1 bad experience before with dry satay sticks every other time was okay , this time I ordered a takeaway meal , with Tempura prawns as a starter , they were awful the batter was shrivelled and prawns dry , i took them back and lovely lady behind counter agreed they dont look right and offered a refund , but the chef first said it was because of the steam in takeaway box and then said we put some sauce (that they provided) on , which is ridiculous , anyway the lady said she would show the manager and get back to us , unfortunately zero courtesy of a simple phone call to a loyal customer .. absolutely disgusted

Excellent food with all the usual Thai dishes and some more including the Excellent seafood platter which I had . Not many in hence the atmosphere rating but our party of 7 compensated. Would definitely recommend.

Consistently, high quality and delicious food. I would highly recommend.

Came here for a Christmas do (in Jan yes) large table of a Sunday night, the food was good, the service was ok with dishes coming out at separate times however understandable due to the size of the table.

Dined here last night and found the food delicious,authentic and generous in portion. Could not fault! The staff were obliging, friendly and knowledgeable and offered a very personal service in tune with our dining requirements. One area for improvement however is the restaurant ambience. The restaurant is too brightly lit and the choice of music questionable.;Tina Turner’s “Simply The Best’, tracks by George Michael and similarly themed music is really not conducive to creating an authentic Thai dining experience! Sort these issues out and you will be up there with the best !

Ottimo ristorante ambiente carino

Extremely poor. Most of the food was clearly frozen resulting in the fish Cakes being las chewy as toffee.The beef dish order came out as chicken, previously frozen and was fit for the dog.staff creating a noise taking down Christmas decorations which was rude when they are working around you. Avoid at all cost. Utter garbage, frozen poor quality food, not cheap and poor service

Excellent food and service. We always have a good meal here. Would recommend

It was okay. Balance of flavours not great. Food was 20 mins late when collecting.

I’ll keep it simple. Excellent service, food was amazing, probably the best Thai I’ve had in the UK. Great choice of meals with plenty of options for non meat eaters.

Food was excellent. Very friendly staff.

I just want to start by saying I am not one to complain or ever write reviews for restaurants. This in fact is my first ever review but I feel this needs to be addressed. My experience at Malagor Fine Thai Cuisine started off really...

Romantic setting. Delicious Thai food of high quality, mouth watering wine and tentative staff. 10/10 from us!

Tasty food, extensive menu and fast turnaround.

Went Sunday lunch time. What a treat. Nice restaurant, very nice friendly staff and extremely nice tasty Thai cuisine and very nicely presented. There was nothing too dislike. So pleased we went, it’s nice to find such a gem.

Lovely meal, brilliant service.

Starter sharer was great. Went for the top set meal. Plenty of food and well presented but flavours of the dishes were very similar.

Enjoyed a good meal cooked nicely and well presented. Was busy so had to wait as we were early. What I liked about the staff no rush to get you out although they were busy. Certainly worth a repeat visit.
