NG Thai Food in Forest of Dean - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

On a short break to the Forest of Dean and this place was recommended by our holiday home owners. So glad we chose it. For me, a Thai restaurant is all about its beef massaman curry and this one is outrageously good. Slow cooked and full of flavour. 👌 The cool-dude owner with the red mohican is also one of the reasons to go…

Brilliant Thai in the heart of the Forest of Dean, unexpectedly good! Great decor, great hosts, great veggie options and good value for money.

First visit for family birthday meal after recommendation from regular visitors & our party of 6 certainly wasn't disappointed. Relaxed & very welcoming atmosphere. First class service & the presentation/quality of all the food was absolutely amazing! An absolute delight to the taste buds! Will definitely be re-visiting again in the very near future.

Booked an early table for myself and my daughter for my birthday. We were welcomed and seated at are table. Plenty of time given to choose drinks and food. We chose starters. I had the mixed starter and my daughter had spring rolls both were piping hot and delicious. For our mains I had the Pad Thai with chicken. As always the food was amazing. My daughter chose the green Thai curry and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was perfect and as we were so early we had the restaurant to ourselves. There was no pressure to finish out food or constant interruptions. The food was of high quality and we cannot wait to return.

One of the best Thai food i have tasted by a genuine Thai chef. Excellent choice range and great value and quality of food in a calming and nice atmosphere

The food here was delicious and being veggie i don't always expect much from thai food. It has a smaller menu than usual and not a massive choice for us but what we had was beautifully cooked and right sized portions. I personally pefer plum sauce or satay to sweet chilli with spring rolls. It was a bit too garlicky for my taste. The Pad thai i chose was the best i had ever had, the veg not undercooked as is often the case and the noodles were silky and soft. The service was also very good, staff are lovely. The restaurant itself is a bit small and it was cold. A bit of heating on such a cold night would have helped. Being a takeaway the door is opened quite often. Decor is good and it has a good atmosphere but for me the jazz music just did not work. Unfortunately i live a bit too far away for a takeaway, but i may return in the warmer months.

Went for the first time on a Friday night and it won’t be our last. Loved everything about it, the decor, the background music, the candles on the tables, the atmosphere, the friendly staff and most importantly the food. I had the mixed starter and my husband the chicken satay (I did wish I’d had some chicken satay in my starter too), mains I had the duck curry and hubby the pad Thai, both were excellent. My curry was full of tender meat and fresh fruit and vegetables, never had grapes in a curry before but they were fab and everything was piping hot. Ice the owner came round several times for a chat and checking we were happy, you couldn’t fault his enthusiasm and passion. He persuaded us to try his homemade sugar free white chocolate cheesecake which was very light and delicious. We’ll definitely be back. Booking is advisable as it is popular and take cash if you can to save them the card fees. They do accept cards as well.

We moved to Lydney for our retirement 4 months ago. Lydney is a town that just keeps giving. The food was superb for our first meal out in the town. I had the green chicken curry with Jasmine rice and my wife had a Red curry.. starters of chicken satay & spring rolls. The quality of the whole meal was fantastic. The ambience was lovely. The staff were very attentive & the chef/owner came out and had a lovely chat with us between courses. It's great to have this on our doorstep. We'll certainly be going back.

Best Thai food I’ve ever experienced although I haven’t been to Thailand. Wonderful restaurant, superb hosts, brilliant atmosphere loved the decor and colourful ceramics.

Shamefully the pictures do not do this ‘find’ justice! Super impressed by the welcome, warm and friendly. Everything explained. Service attentive. Food itself: as I was new to this restaurant I tried a number of dishes. Tom Yum Goong - have not tasted anything like it since Thailand. Won Ton/Satay Chicken - delicious. Pad Thai - just perfect. I’m new to the area and seriously there’s no better Asian cuisine to be found between Cheltenham and Cardiff hands down. Note to NG: Please consider Deliveroo or alternative delivery service

Thanks to Ice for the best Thai takeaway I’ve EVER had! I’ve eaten in a lot of Thai restaurants and I’m telling you fellow TAs this is the most flavoursome experience of Thai cuisine you’ll ever experience! It was a mmmmm after ever morsel! Ice is a great chef who knows his spice and flavours. We had the Tom Yum Soup to start as a pallet cleanser, the vegan spring rolls, the King Prawn Pad Thai .. Chicken Red Curry andJasmine rice.. Devine!!!! Thank you so much.. you lucky people in Lydney need to experience this little gem you have on your doorstep! I’ll be back for sure… 🙏

Never been to this restaurant before and it was a splendid surprise. The staff were friendly. Surroundings were pleasant and most important, the food was delicious. This made a lovely change to experience Thai cuisine. Would definitely visit again.

I eat in a lot of Thai restaurants and this was by far the best Thai food I have eaten outside of Thailand. Super authentic, fresh and vibrant flavours and fantastic service. A real must if you're in the area and Ice the owner is super friendly and attentive. I closed my eyes as I ate the pad Thai and penang curry and was instantly transported back to the streets of Bangkok. 100% reccommend and will definitely go back given half the chance.

A real gem! Great food, hospitality and decor. A must visit, we will definitely be back. Fab Veggie/ Vegan menu and attention to detail.

Visited on a recent trip to Lyndey. Great food and fabulous service. Ice & his team have a really lovely authentic establishment with fantastic tasting food

Nice, fine and friendly Thai Restaurant. The service was very friendly and cheerful. Ambient was cozy. We do recommend this Restaurant. :-)

Lovely meal with friends here surrounded by plenty of bright and interesting art in a cosy corner of the restaurant. Staff were very attentive and chef even came over to welcome us. Had a great time and will definitely return soon.

Have just eaten here after reading the reviews and I have to say that the chef/owner was lovely. The food was excellent and good quantities . Shame I’m only here on holiday otherwise I would be eating here all the time.

First time visiting this place. The food was pretty good, but by no means the best Thai food we've had. The mains were better than the starters. The starters were pretty greasy. We've had many Thai meals over the years including going to Thailand. Typical...

Popped in here for a meal on a Friday night and got the last seat. Food was lovely!, a great choice to select from including vegan options. Staff were lovely and prices were reasonable. Definitely will be revising!

We came here for dinner last week. Our first thoughts were that the music was too loud - sounded like they were playing top 40 which took away from the ambience as the decor is quite nice with lots of thai decor. Service was average....

Fresh and utterly delicious. We have been recommending it to all our friends. Fantastic to have such tasty vegan options. Friendly service and great atmosphere. Highly recommended. The yellow curry is out of this world!

The food is absolutely delicious. We loved our family meal here. The staff were exceptional. Thankyou for a fab evening at your fabulous restaurant.

Visited for the first time last Saturday evening. Wasn't sure what to expect as restaurant is small and no Asian staff front of house. Having been to Thailand many times I always would eat where the locals went and not the tourists. I was delighted...

Came here for the second time and left just as happy as I did the first time. Staff all very friendly, and food was amazing! Will be back

First time to this restaurant and I was really impressed, it smelt amazing as soon as you walk in and I couldn't wait to order! I had the massaman beef curry, my friend had the duck red curry and we both had egg fried rice...

The attitude and response from this restaurant when you have a genuine complaint is appalling. I have twice complained about food from there and on both occasions their attitude is awful. They left out a main ingredient on one dish. And on another occasion the...

They don’t like criticism Absolutely poor service, ordered food all we got was attitude from the owner, there was issues with the food, commented on it, and just got time never to come back again. Didn’t bother me as would never go back again anyway....

Met a friend at this hidden gem of a restaurant in the Forest of Dean. Service great with warm welcome. Food cooked fresh and authentic with choices that were really different. Best Thai food I've ever had and really reasonable prices. Highly recommend this brilliant...

Met a colleague for a lunchtime meeting. This is authentic Thai food and great quality. We had a platter of starters which were amazing followed by two curry dishes to share. The portions were very generous and the Duck curry fantastic. I will be coming...

Amazing takeway. First time and we weren’t disappointed.The food was full of lovely flavours! Covid safe too😊

Yesterday I had the duck red thai curry and my dad had the pad thai. Both were very delicious and portion sizes were perfect for a pleasantly full stomach. A small restaurant and very cosy with a relaxed atmosphere. Staff also very friendly. Highly recommend...

Just had an amazing meal here, service was excellent and the food was delicious! Cannot recommend this place enough. Love that the chef came out to ask if we enjoyed the food. Lovely place

We had a lovely meal here on the 4th December. We were allowed to have the table next to our friends (Covid rules) so could still chat and enjoy an evening out together. The food was really tasty, I had the veggie spring rolls, Thai...

Having coeliac disease means I will be extremely poorly if I eat gluten. Eating out can be terrifying - I could not be more impressed with this restaurant! With advance warning they were able to provide the main dishes gluten free and I was relieved...

The food was ok but nothing like I was expecting.. not really to my taste. A little more taste would be good :)

Tremendous dinner at NG Thai in central Lydney. Great food, cozy atmosphere, super host and reasonable prices, what’s not to like? My wife and I will certainly return as it’s fantastic that Lydney now has a Thai restaurant run by a team that clearly cares...

The staff were really welcoming and helpful and the food was lovely! I will definitely be going back there with family and friends.

We had a lovely meal last night at the new restaurant in Lydney. The ambience is great, staff lovely and food fantastic!! We had to wait a little while for our food which we didn't mind atall but it was nice that both owners took...

First time visit last Saturday, was really looking forward to something different in Lydney and we were not disappointed. The food was all freshly prepared and served so we all four ate at the same time which I’m sure is difficult when it was so...

Food was delicious. Beautifully succulent chicken skewers to start with a peanut dip served on the side. An incredibly tasty duck curry to follow. Served in a bowl. The rice or noodles whichever you choose from is served on a plate. All cooked freshly to...

We were looking forward to a Thai meal after hearing positive reports but were really disappointed. This is not authentic Thai food. The supposedly tempura batter was in fact an ordinary heavy batter which my friend and I couldn’t eat. In both the the prawn...

I had heard rave reviews about this new Thai restaurant in Lydney so I thought I would give it a try. Well, fantastic! What truly authentic Thai food cooked by a Thai chef. Very friendly staff and a lovely ambience. Highly recommended.

I went to NG Thai for the first time with a group of girlfriends last week and we were all exceedingly pleased with the food, the service and generally nice ambiance. Most of us had a mixed starter (we shared chicken satay, chicken and prawn...

Was in Lydney on business when I drove past this place, the fact the graphics were so good made me park up and have a look. Was open and as it was lunchtime thought why not. Inside is clan and modern and free from all...

Excellent, freshly cooked, reasonably priced thai food. Currently only serving lunch but soon will also be serving dinner. A very welcome addition to the area. Will definitely be back.
