One of the few really bright spots in lockdown has been being able to eat Oli’s Thai more often. The food is delicious and the takeaway menu feels like a treat. The duck curry is my favourite dish. Delicious, authentic and fresh tasting Thai food.

Recolectamos del restaurante debido a las operaciones actuales (solo para llevar). La comida era decente, bien sazonada y sabrosa, pero los precios eran altos y las porciones eran pequeñas. 13 para un curry de berenjena con unas judías verdes y 16 para dos pequeños trozos de lubina. Las pequeñas tartas de natillas eran 3 cada una. Mala relación calidad-precio.

The best fish I've had in a Thai restaurant; the lime sauce was very strong and tasty with a lot of lovely herbs. Friendly people and good service. We had a take away and it was ready in a few minutes.

tendemos a reservar nuestra próxima mesa el mismo día que visitamos para no perder la oportunidad de visitarla. Es extremadamente difícil conseguir una mesa y generalmente tiene que reservar con meses de anticipación, pero vale la pena esperar. La ensalada de pepino solo vale la pena visitar.

Hemos estado aquí dos veces, una para un almuerzo de cumpleaños como 4 y otra para cenar en pareja. Resumiré ambas visitas ahora;El menú del almuerzo fue genial, pedimos 4 entrantes diferentes, galletas de gambas y salsa y luego 4 platos principales diferentes. La ensalada de garbanzos suena aburrida, pero honestamente creo que es lo mejor en el menú, simplemente delicioso. Nos encantaron todas las comidas que probamos, algunas más que otras, pero ninguna comida decepcionante. Lo único que me sorprendió un poco fue la carta de vinos muy limitada y costosa (2 botellas, 1 vino tailandés a aproximadamente 20 s y 1 vino francés a 30).Cuando volvimos a cenar. Realmente disfrutamos de nuevo. Obviamente fuimos a la ensalada de garbanzos (que era tan bueno como la primera vez!) Y tuvimos un par de platos principales diferentes. Uno principal era un plato de tofu que estaba demasiado caliente para nosotros. . . totalmente delicioso pero demasiado picante y el otro (un plato de carne y papas) era agradable, muy rico pero no tan interesante como algunos de los otros platos en el menú que desearía haber probado. ¡Sentí que jugué demasiado a salvo con la carne! Mucho mejor lista de vinos para la cena.Mi consejo sería probar los platos de los que nunca has oído hablar antes. Estos fueron los platos que eran inusuales, interesantes y deliciosos.

Primera visita, en un bono de regalo de Navidad.Tres de nosotros visitamos. Delicioso almuerzo de principio a fin el martes.Entrantes: garbanzos, brócoli, ambos en deliciosas salsas y 6 pasteles de pescado con vegetales encurtidos: arroz, pollo al curry verde y pato para platos principales. Una vez más, ambos deliciosos: el pato estaba cómodo y literalmente se cayó del hueso. Una tarta de crema pastelera dulce y ligera y dio en el clavo. Un vaso de rojo y dos osos, todos por 25 por cabeza. Gran valor para el dinero. Servicio encantador y atento. Deseando volver

Ate in here on Wednesday 4th december. Didn't book but arrived at 5pm to get a table. We asked if we could go for a beer next door to the rusty bicycle and come back about half 6.... this was made to happen which was excellent. Started off with the prawn crackers and the warm peanut dip!!! Wow... We had to order a 2nd portion! Also ordered another starter which was really fresh fragrant and lovely. Main meals was 2 x duck penang with rice. Again.... Wow! Brilliant with a side of the special stem broccoli chilli and garlic. Couple of beers. All in £64! Belting! The staff were excellent and the ambiance was great. A true gem of a restaurant and will 110% return. Well done all concerned with this place.

I visit Oxford on a regular basis with business and found this place by chance. I have just had my second visit and it has confirmed that the food was as good as what I thought it was the week before. The duck main course needs a special mention in my view. I expect to be a weekly visitor until my business trips change.

Oli's is a phenomenon, I note several complaints in recent reviews about service, but I have never had a problem, the welcome seems genuine, the speed and efficiency is admirable, and the food, well it's Oli's and its good. My wife and I work at a disadvantage as we cannot eat shell fish, and of course a lot of Thai food is built around a fish sauce made from shrimp. But when I ask about this they always go to the trouble of looking for which dishes are safe for me, and last night they even offered to make my wife a dish specially without. our party always eat too much and have a great time. We did last night too.

Great little bolt hole of a restaurant with lovely albeit very heavy food. Lots of it is fried and clearly has lots of sugar but the flavours are still delicate and well executed. The bar-man cum waiter is rude enough for it to be off-putting and some basic manners and patience wouldn’t go amiss. Pause over your choice and he hoiks his bosom and flounces away. It’s truly a bit bizarre and noticeably odd. Shame really as it detracts from the food. He’s just a bit agitated to the point where the table behind us was chatting about it as well. Sort that and it’s perfect.

Booked for an early Tuesday lunchtime. When we arrived, we were turned away because we had children. Absolutely disgusting!

I heard a lot about the restaurant and managed to book it three months ago to reserve a table for yesterday - it's how popular the place is. Of, course, my expectations were very high. Out of two starters and two main courses that we shared with my husband I would give the best mark to beef salad starter - amazing, and slow cooked duck leg with tasty sauce - very good. The other two dishes were ordered from "Today's specials" written on white board and somehow it felt that it was leftovers which tried to sell hard. I've never sent a dish back to kitchen in a restaurant but I've done it yesterday! Recommended to me starter Papaya salad (the cost was the same as beef salad) looked and tasted like shredded carrots and cabbage with lots of chilli to give it some taste... I asked the waiter where is the papaya and he explained that it's a green Thai papaya, not the yellow one that we know here. I googled it later and found out that this kind of papaya is tasteless and used for filling dishes. That's perfectly explains the amount of chilli in the salad... After this educational trip the waiter almost ignored us for the rest of the evening. My husband's green chicken curry ordered from "The specials" board was very salty and quite disappointing. Another thing I'd like to mention that there was no choice of white wine - one variety was "sweet" according to the waiter, and one another for £30, which we went for, was dry. It felt that we overpaid for the wine. The street is looking quite rough, so it's a questionable pleasure to sit outside - the option often offered to walk in guests. Overall impression - some dishes are very good but the owners cutting some corners and use their local fame too much in their favour.

We stayed at Oxford for a few weeks, and this restaurant was on my to-do list. It was not easy to book online, as reservation is open 3 months in advance and all dates seemed crossed out. No one picked up the phone just for inquiry. Since on their site they said they do accept walk in, that's how I scored a seat at the bar at around 5:30pm on a weeknight. I tried the aubergine curry, which was perfectly cooked. I just visited Thailand before Oxford, and I would say the curry here tailored more to the local palette. It was not spicy at all, and I wasn't sure if what I had was considered a red curry. In any case, it still worked for me, and I enjoyed it. The passion fruit with meringue dessert was delightful choice to end the meal, reminding me how much I missed the fruit with crunchy seeds.

We shared a whole load of dishes including fishcakes, duck curry and sea bass. All of the dishes were beautifully presented and most importantly, delicious!

This was my second visit to Oli's Thai and it was fabulous. We got lucky with a last minute table and late night sunshine. My friend and I both loved our meals. I had the belly pork special as a starter which was fresh, crispy and packed full of flavour. I had the seabass as my main which was also faultless. My friend (who is a fussy veggie) absolutely loved her food and I thought her aubergine curry was delicious. We shared the apple salad which I've had before but wanted to try again as it's so zingy and fresh tasting. Oli's Thai really is one of the best restaurants out there....especially in the summer when you can eat outside and get a bit more space around you. The food is fantastic, the service is excellent and it's pricing is perfectly fair. What's not to love?

We walked into this small and quaint looking restaurant with mixed expectations, which elevated themselves within the first few moments of being greeted by the staff. Chirpy happy energy, open kitchen with the humble chef and owner of the restaurant (a Thai lady), and a special menu for the month, along with daily specials.

Me and my boyfriend visited Oxford for a day trip and as we were searching for good restaurants in Oxford online stumbled upon this one. It is not exactly in the centre of Oxford but the area (OX4) seems to be very food-concentrated. We drove there having high expectations (4.5 Stars) so didn't wanna get disappointed. At first, we admittedly thought this didn't meet our expectations, as it was very small and only spaces at the bar were available, all the tables were taken. Though, in fact, the atmosphere was awesome; friendly, nice music, comfortable. Especially sitting at the bar allowed us to chat with the barmaid and see the food and drinks getting prepared. We ordered the Confit Duck and the Aubergine curry with Prawn crackers and egg tartes mmmmmh!!! I can tell you their menu doesn't offer a lot but their food is GREAT!!!! Especially the curries were exactly how you'd expect a curry to taste, the perfect amount of spice and sweetness and the rice was nice and sticky but not overcooked.

Escuchado mucho acerca de este lugar en el último par de años, finalmente nos dieron alrededor de la reserva de la cena! ! La bienvenida fue muy cálido y amable, después de mirar el menú por un tiempo de no poder hacer nuestra mente el camarero llegó y nos hablamos a través de todos los platos y hizo algunas recomendaciones, y fue perfecto! ! La comida era increíble, la calidad de los ingredientes junto con el sabor era posiblemente uno de los mejores que he probado! ! Sin duda lo recomiendo.

Excepcionalmente alta calidad, pequeño restaurante de barrio en una modesta calle suburbana en Oxford.

Absolutely worthy of its reputation. The confit duck panang was among the best things I’ve eaten and the crispy chickpeas and turmeric prawns were also great. Glasses could be taller given the size of a hands. Nice Verbena handwash.

Este es un encantador restaurante con servicio de buena calidad y excelente comida a un precio muy razonable. Les recomiendo a todos - reserva con antelación es muy recomendable. Yo sugeriría que podría haber algún tipo de orientación en el menú con respecto a condimentos en el futuro.

We have waited a very long time to get to Oli’s Thai as for our last booking we were snowed in. We sat at the bar so could see the crew working so hard in the tiny kitchen and had Seared Beef Tamarind, Chicken with coriander and the Prawn curry with Apple, cashew and mint salad followed by Custard tarts - all very delicious. Book well in advance as this is a genuine Thai treat.

I literally never knew that chickpeas could taste so incredibly and unutterably amazing. I am still reeling with astonishment. Our party of 4 enjoyed most of the menu ... the peanut sauce is TO DIE FOR literally ... the chicken and garlic - sublime, the cauliflower chilli - interesting, as was the apple and cucumber salad. The aubergine curry - omg. Basic set up, only a few tables, pleasant and efficient service. I'm not one who generally believes the hype, but we've booked again for the soonest table we could get - in September.

Small restaurant which you have to book 3 months in advance but boy is it worth the wait. Turmeric Prawns, Apple, mint and cashew salad, cauliflower and chilli etc. The flavours were so good and the refreshing Apple salad with the heat of the chilli dishes was perfection. Staff friendly and welcoming and work very hard!! Highly recommend.

Best Thai I've had in my life. I thought I knew good Thai but this is a level on its own far above anything else I've tried. My favourite so far (I've been three times) is the Panang Duck Curry. I don't even like duck - I would not have ordered it before but Panang is my favourite, so I gave it a try. It's been the best thing on their menu, though nothing has ever been disappointing. The meat falls off the bone and the roast duck leg is crispy on the outside - I regret sharing with my boyfriend every time. Only minor complaint I have is everything is quite spicy, and I'd take it down a notch, personally. I still wish I could come here more often but it's incredibly popular and you can't always get in. Well worth trying! The service has always been impeccable.

This is a very popular restaurant. Need to reserve many months in advance due to limited seatings and is always fully booked. The location is a bit out of the way. Worth the effort. Food is fantastic and reasonably priced.

This is a modest little place in a back street in Oxford, in an area that is fast becoming gentrified. It is a real find. You need to be patient to get a booking - after many calls 3 months ago they graciously found us...

It is usually possible to get a seat without booking if you are patient and lucky. Food is pretty good, with the duck panang being the highlight. Luckily while other food items are changed every month, the duck had been staying on the menu for...

I lived in Thailand for 7 years and I felt right at home in this place. From the smells, the sights, the place settings and the condiment set up...all very authentic. It felt like being back in the side streets of Bangkok. Service was prompt and efficient. I had the red beef curry and my friend had the chicken & cashew. We both cleaned our plates. Good value.

Ordered a takeaway vegan green curry with rice. Huge portion size and extremely tasty, with green beans, chili, tofu, mushroom etc. Pricey (£12.50 for curry, £5 for rice) but the portion size is generous, ingredients fresh, service quick (collected it after 15 minutes) and it's the centre of Oxford. The restaraunt itself is very beautiful and has a lovely atmosphere. Very friendly staff and lots of smiling, relaxed customers. I love the fairy lights outside and the alleyway you walk through the reach the front door. Recommend if you don't mind spending more money for good quality food and service.
