Orathai in Preston

Absolute gem of a place, food fantastic , service 10/10 from Mel and Watt, always visit when we are in area

Food absolutely fantastic, service great, the let down was the state of the toilet area - neither the ladies or the gents doors would close, the lighthouse switches were disgustingly filthy, added to that were the massive cobwebs in the area just outside the actual toilets. Would we return, on the basis of the food a very big yes, on the cleanliness no, if the toilet area is like this what is the kitchen like, they may have a 5rating but is it still correct?

Lovely little place. We had lemon chicken, roasted duck, coconut rice and ribs on the side followed by the coconut ice cream and banana fritter. It was all wonderful and service was very friendly. The loos are on the ground floor which was good for my elderly mom. The eatery is quite small so if you want to go on a Fri or Sat night I would book several days in advance

What a great find !! Amazing restaurant with a really good varied menu. We booked for 6.30 on a busy Saturday and were treated like royalty. Fabulous service with drinks, starters and mains for four of us. Not rushed at all, even though our table was booked for another party @ 8.00. A memorable dining experience and one that we will have sometime in the future.

Wat and his wife are amazing. food always lovely and service spot.. no fuss, relax and friendly... we love going there as a family... thank you for doing such a great job! xx

Hadn't been for years, but just as good as we remembered it to be! Lovely food and prompt service despite only one waiter and a fairly busy restaurant. Will be returning soon.

Food was absolutely first class and the attentiveness of the waiter was excellent. We began with the golden platter mixed starter for 2, followed by sweet and sour chicken and red chilli beef with sides of jasmine rice and stir fried noodles. We had 2 large glasses of red wine which my wife said was excellent ( not the vinegar served in many restaurants) and a diet coke. The bill came to an unbelievable £51 including service charge. Our first visit and definately not our last, I highly recommend a visit.

This was our second visit for a takeaway on arrival got a menu only 2 in the restaurant eating when taking menu was told cash only for take aways……Eat in use a card takeaway cash?? Really disappointed as month earlier no issue, fortunately Bangkok Thai Lytham had a functioning takeaway enabled card machine. Vote with my card in future :)

Had a lovely meal 6 of us as fancied a change from Ribby Hall restaurant. Great food, tasty, freshly made, good value and lovely service

We came down to Ribby Hall this week and on the way back from Blackpool we got lost and ended up driving past this lovely little restaurant. We phoned up for a takeaway and it was one of the best meals I've ever had. The food was really fresh and cooked to perfection. We had Thai green curry and a duck dish my wife still can't remember what it was called. We can't wait to come back down again and will definitely be back. Thank you

Ate here 2 times on my visits to the nearby villa area green can not fault this restaurant, wish it was closer to me , the food is delicious , everything we ordered was gorgeous, and it’s very well run give it a go it’s a must .

Excellent customer service. Attention to the detail ❤️ Amazing food and selection. Typical Thai music 🎶 Really happy with this place and would definitely recommend

Honestly one of the best meals I have ever eaten in my life and I'm already planning my next visit in 2 weeks. Everything about the experience was flawless. It's a very small restaurant with only a few tables meaning that they're able to give everyone great attention and the food isn't rushed but it does mean you're better off booking before you arrive. It has a great ambiance and the staff are so friendly. I ordered the sticky pork ribs for a starter. Usually when you order ribs at an Asian restaurant they're tough and covered in salt to hide the quality of the meat but this wasn't the case here. The meat was falling off the bone and the sauce was lovely. The main was where the whole experience truly shone. I ordered the roast duck curry with lychee and pineapple and it was truly one of the finest pieces of food to ever pass my lips. I can't praise it highly enough the whole experience was 10/10 and I don't have a single negative thing to add.

We had a takeaway from there for my birthday and the food was lovely. I had the duck in red curry sauce.

We should have been in Thailand celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, obviously we aren't so this was our next best thing...Thai take out and we weren't dissapointed. We called in as didn't have a menu, booked, paid and arranged a time for collection. The owner was so nice and helpful. I had Pad Thai, side of Spring Rolls, both were excellent. This is going to be our regular eatery now:)

We had a lovely takeout from there a few weeks ago and I loved the duck red curry with coconut rice.

Having driven past many times & missed it, myself and companion wanted to try somewhere after work that we'd never been toThis place was recommended and it didn't disappoint!Busy despite it being 7.30 on a Thursday, managed to get a table for 2.Wine list good selection of all 3, 5 or 6 red/white and 4 rosè. Decor reminded me of quaint village restaurants I've visited of old, and it was warm and cosyHad mixed starters, large prawn crackers, crispy duck triple flavoured *(nice and spicy) and sesame beef, 2x coconut rice, 2x glasses pinot grigio rosè and 2 cokes. £47. Will be back for the curry special

We were recently on a holiday from Scotland staying at the Mowbreck Caravan Park. We were looking for places to eat that were not to far away. We came across the Orathai and we are so glad we did. The owner was very welcoming even though we hadn’t booked - which we would recommend has there are only 8 or 9 tables. There was specials available for £5 !! but we chose other dishes from the menu. The starters were so so tasty as were the mains. The ducky bites and golden bags for starters and then we ordered chilli beef - which was hot -with coconut rice and garlic and ginger chicken. After all that I still managed a dessert. A hot custard dish with ice cream and berries mmm. We can honestly say that this was the best Thai cuisine we have eaten and we have both travelled and have eaten in many restaurants. There is nothing fancy about the restaurant just fantastic food, affordable and in a relaxed environment. One to visit for sure.

Informal dining, authentic cuisine. Great service. Mixed starters excellent, thai green curry -amazing. Not a huge dining room so booking is essential

What a lucky find! Amazing food in a quaint authentic Thai restaurant in village location. Family run, very friendly service, nothing was too much trouble. Outstanding food at very reasonable prices. We shall return!

Tasty but mild flavoured suitable for British palette .Pleasant environment for fine dining .Staff happy to amend items to suit your taste.

I can honestly say this is the best Thai curry I have ever tasted! Amazing value for money and lovely friendly service! Such a gem of a place will definitely be visiting again in the future so happy to have found this place.

Fabulous!. Small intimate dining restaurant with an excellent menu and great service. Thoroughly enjoyed the food

The food at Orathai was outstanding. The flavours were very authentic and the ingredients were all freshly prepared. The restaurant is quite small and could do with a refurb but the food more than compensated for the surroundings. I would advise booking if you don't want to be disappointed. Orathai also do a £5 curry night on Wednesdays & Thursdays which is again, superb. You must try this place if you like Thai cuisine!!!

On our first visit for a number of years we were more than pleased with quality of food, service. We,ve visited with family and friends everythong consistantly good.

This is one chilled out unhurried place. The staff were excellent and food superb, all at very reasonable prices. I had the Red curry with noodles and was not disappointed. We will return soon.

Whilst staying locally we popped in here for a meal! Pleasant surroundings and very attentive staff, the food was great especially liked the Pad Thai, highly recommend you give this place a try!

A first class homely restaurant with a wonderful selection of meals,very well mannered staff ,courteous,friendly and probably the best meal and restaurant I have visited.Plus the fact it was very reasonably priced.

We've driven past this place so many times over the years and kept meaning to call in. Tonight we finally tried it and are so glad we did! Small restaurant with very friendly service, perfect for our date night. Lots of choice on the menu, but we went for mixed starters which were very nice, followed by a duck dish with coconut rice which was amazing. We will definitely be back.

Small, intimate restaurant set in beautiful village of Wrea Green. Visited on a Thursday night with My wife andBrother and Sister in Law. Starter of Hot and Sour soup for me. Delicious! The rest shared a platter which went down well. We all took advantage of £ 5.00 curry offer. Red, Green or Golden curry with chicken, beef or prawn. Ample portions with boiled rice. Hot, spicy and tasty. Drinks Singha beer and wine. Good value and service.

Found this place using trip advisor and we wasn’t disappointed, what a great find. Menu has lots of choices and all very reasonably priced. We had the platter for 2 to start which was lovely and more than ample. For our mains we ordered the duck and golden curry again both very tasty. The staff are friendly and I would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant, we will certainly go back.

They managed to fit us in early as it was apparent it gets really busy. We had the starter platter which we were a little disappointed with but when the mains arrived they were stunning. So full of Thai flavours and fresh. Highly recommended- make sure you book as so many people turned up to be disappointed as it was full.

Living close to the restaurant we regularly take friends and family here for a meal and we are never disappointed. The food the menu is sufficient enough to cater for all tastes and is all pretty much home cooked. The service is friendly and you can even swap some items for others on the sharing platter if you so desire.

What appears to be someones front room is actually a thai restaurant serving beautiful and VERY tasteful food at very reasonable prices. Orathai bites are to die for. Book early as the weekends get very busy and they are closed Sunday through Tuesday

The second time we stopped by and the food is just delicious. Excellent service- takes time so if your in a hurry bewarned, but honestly it is well worth it. Small place so again booking would be advised. Wonderful food. Couldn't recommend this place enough. The deep fried duck in the 3 sauces..... delicious!

We went on a Thursday evening for the '£5 curry night'. The place was busy and the service was excellent. The curries were great value, very tasty and beautifully presented.

Came here on a recommendation from a friend as our favourite Thai restaurant has closed in St Anne's.

The food and service was excellent and good value for money. It is only a small venue but they managed to fit all 8 plus a buggy

La comida increíble, un gran servicio, simplemente una gran noche con la familia. La comida no era de este mundo, todos recién preparado, lleva tiempo, ten paciencia, pero chico es bueno! Se puede recomendar el curry verde y las costillas! Era nuestra primera vez comiendo,...

Comida de primera clase excelente, muy bien presentado, muy limpio, muy educado probablemente la mejor comida que he probado lo recomiendo a todos.

Fuimos un viernes por la tarde y había una corriente constante de pedidos de comida para llevar y. La comida era muy buena y el servicio era excelente y amable. Recomendado.

Tuvimos una comida familiar y encantador. Se siente muy fresco y casero. No puedo criticar el servicio o la comida. Realmente genial. Tienen la noche de los miércoles que suena genial para un fiver!

As i walked into this restaurant, one Friday early evening, it was busy...always a good sign.Very pleasant staffFood was delicious..I had Mussaman Curry with chicken...with coconut rice...one of the best I have tasted.The starters were also prepared very well and tasted greatMaybe, a slight problem, was a fairly long wait between courses...but everything was fresh, and in the end was worth the wait

This little resturant is fantastic. Food and staff 1st class. Visited last night with friend and will certainly be back. EXCELLENT.

Just wow! Was recommended by friends we didn't know this place existed! Small and intimate with a lovely atmosphere! Absolutely superb top quality food very authentic and with very reasonable prices! We had the Tom Yung soup, mixed platter, loving fingers (spare ribs) and steamed dumplings to start all amazing! For mains we had the red curry, golden curry and masaman curry! All with amazing flavours no doubt the best Thai meal we've had! 100% recommend you pay this place a visit! But make sure you book a table well in advance to avoid disappointment!! 5*

Lovely little Thai restaurant in picturesque Wrea Green. I recommend the "Lovely Fingers", delicious, meaty pork ribs in a sticky sauce and also the Thai Red Curry. Delicious food and very reasonable, although portions are on the small side.

This place was absolutely fantastic i have been to many thai restaurants and this was up in the top 3 fo sure, i dont speak much thai but the owner understood my practice and was very grateful for me trying. Picture of tom yum kung soup and chicken satay sticks. Absolutely delicious.

We've had takeaway here now twice and it's been the best Thai food I've ever had both times. Excellent menu, excellent service. Next time we're going to try sitting in as it looks nice inside too. Well done to all involved.

I actually came here last year but only just remembered what great customer service I received so decided to write about it. I don't really like Thai food it's just not my taste at all but my friend and his family love Thai food and thought I should try it unfortunely it just was not to my taste nothing wrong with the food it's just me really but the chef cooked up a dish just for me to try hoping I'd like it but I didn't unfortunately but it was so lovely for the staff to do that as no restaurant I know of would ever do that. It's a shame Thai food is not for me really not that it was bad it's just my taste. But I did have a desert I think I had the Banana split which was lovely possibly the best I've ever had. I just felt to comment on how great and thoughtful the staff are here. The rest of the family absolutely loved the food though.

Very good service from the owner and excellent food. I would recommend making a reservation if you are in a group, as it's quite small.

You wait quite a while (an hour) for take away but it is worth it the food is delicious. Starters we like are the fish cakes and chicken satay. Mains the beef and chilli and the red curry. If only it was open more to be honest.

If it's total taste done exactly the way you want it then the Orathai is the place for you. Very modestly priced the food is served passionately by the Thai couple who own it

Love this place - the food and service are always perfect. The decor is really "dated" but seems to add to the charm! Cosy and comfortable, busy but calm, really fresh tasty food, and the wine keeps on coming! Will continue to return.

Great meal. Really fresh food. Everything was delicious. Service was excellent. We tried the 'silver meal' great value and gave us the chance to try a bit of everything.

What a wee gem we found this Thai restaurant is brilliant the food is outstanding its in a converted house in the pleasant village of wrea green we did book a table thank goodness the place was full and they where turning people away it's a family run business and they are lovely nothing to much trouble we all had starters the guys went for soup Tom Yum Kung very tasty and we went for the Golden Platter for 2 again very tasty what I loved they don't rush you bring the Main meal out soon as you have finished it was about 15 minutes which was really nice ready for the Sweet Sour Crispy Duck with Rice Thai Red Curry delicious the guys had Red Chilli beef with noodles and Stir Fry Mixed Vegetable it surely was a beautiful meal and we will be defernatliy be going again for sure it's open Wed/Thursday 6.00 to 9pm and you can dine in for £5.00 curry Night so we will be taking advantage of that Friday/Saturday 6pm to 10.30pm if you love Thai Food there is no better place than this and the Hospitality is outstanding could not ask for anything better loved it

Four of us went to this restaurant and opted for the Thai sharing platter as a starter. It was very tasty and not over-spicy. Then we had the £5 curry which was a choice of beef, prawn,chicken etc. in three different 'strengths', along with a variety of rice dishes,ie: sticky, jasmine and coconut( yummy) and boiled.The ambience was pleasantly relaxed and the service spot on, even though it was busy.

Fab food in a small and very friendly restaurant, polite knowledgable staff and food was amazing, food is not over facing and was excellent value for money in a lovely village location, definitely worth a visit...

We live locally and tried for the first time, rang through an order and collected it to take home. Food was delicious and it was a pleasant surprise. Will be using more often!Pad Thai was delicious.

Some years ago this used to be the Sawat Dee Thai restaurant if memory serves but clearly has had at least one rebrand since I was last there probably in the late 80s early 90s. The restaurant is still a fairly small affair - looks like a former domestic residence converted into a restaurant. So not many covers and booking will be recommended. The staff, which could well be a family run thing, were very friendly and pleasant. Couldn't have done more for us. Full marks. Our starters were delicious and tasty. Well presented. Mum's scallops were apparently fantastic. The selection of 5 starters the girlfriend and I had were lovely and she had an additional portion all of dumplings which were again fab. Mum's giant king prawns looked stunning when they arrived for main course in a red curry sauce and my girlfriend's weeping tiger, fillet steak with chilli sauce was superb. I had massamam with chicken, one of my favourite Thai dishes and again superb. We all agreed we'd reorder the identical meal if we came again. We even pigged out on dessert too and the two we ordered were again really tasty. Highly recommended. The only minus was that the restaurant had sold out of Bacardi after my Mum had one earlier in the meal. But I guess that's a very minor gripe. [I can confirm the card reader at this restaurant is not contactless and therefore Apple Pay (limitless or otherwise) is not available here at this time.]

We have been here several times now and the food never disappoints. A good selection of dishes to choose from and always delicious to eat! The only criticism this time was rather slow service.

First time at the restaurant tonight. Fantastic meal at very reasonable price. Attentive friendly service. Red curry is sublime. Can't wait to go back. Mark, Tracey and Charlotte Wood

We have been coming to Orathai for longer than I can remember and I still haven't found a better red Thai curry!!!! It is very rare that we go when it is not very busy. I have even been denied a takeaway as it was too busy in the restaurant. I do not however see this as a bad thing! It only cements my view on how good the food is. The £5 curry nights are not to be missed! Fabulous food and it is so consistent!

We had never tried this restaurant before and having read the reviews, thought we would give it a try.We were not disappointed.! The restaurant is small and the atmosphere very friendly and relaxed. The menu was extensive and provided a great choice for us all - the owner was very helpful while taking our order and provided options for some of the dishes. Our drinks were regularly topped up by the owner who ran everything in the restaurant - lovely person who maintained an attentive service throughout. The waitress said she was relatively new but was doing a great job - obviously having a good teacher!When the food arrived it was clear that it had been freshly prepared and the quality was excellent.We were the last to leave the restaurant but we're in no way rushed.We will certainly be going back again. As a lover of Thai food this restaurant is great - we will definitely visit again. We cannot believe we hadn't been sooner!

This is our regular Friday night meal. My favourite restaurant in the whole world. The food is the tastiest. Owner happy to accommodate changes to meals and always very pleasant. He remembers me because I go so often and takes the time to always talk to us when we see him. RECOMMEND HIGHLY

Cannot fault this place came here on the 1st of August at the last minute they managed to fit us in and could not fault the meal everything was cooked to perfection the service was excellent and was not overly priced we will be going again soon

Been regulars at this restaurant since moving to the village, always a warm welcome and delicious food. Love it

This was very much a chance visit as we saw the restaurant on our way into the car park of the local pub and we decided to come back and have a bite.The food was very good, we particularly enjoyed the duck in a tamarind sauce and the thai fish cakes. If there was one thing we just needed a bit more of it was heat. As someone who has spent a lot of time in Thailand over the years we asked for but didn't quite get the Thai level of spices in our dishes

Very much looking forward to visiting this Thai restaurant, mainly because of the excellent reviews. I was anticipating a superb meal, but this was not the case - which makes me wonder if I am assessing the food and slow service differently from other diners.Firstly, food only warm, not hot and the Thai fishcakes were very firm, hard and lacking in flavour. Main course of duck still only warm and not piping hot, as I would have preferred. After such a poor start, I was looking forward to the sweet but, unfortunately, this was still partly frozen! It would seem to me that quite a few of the dishes are bought in and prepared as needed, rather than all being freshly made. We shall not be returning.

I really wanted to like this place and had read the reviews which said service was slow due to freshly cooked food etcetera so was happy with that, however the gentleman who was waiting on (the owner?) seemed to be distracted with clearing up and resetting tables rather than taking our order and when the food arrived some was not very hot. One of the dishes even had a bit of cling film on it. The food is not the usual quality of Thai food which can be obtained elsewhere in the area. It was my companions first foray into Thai food and sadly it was a disappointment.

This was recommended to me recently and it really lived up to the hype.A fantastic menu and even better food served up - fresh and spicy, just as it should be.Wonderful service where the staff genuinely want you to enjoy your experience.Great prices which means you want to leave a generous tip.We'll be back soon and i'll be recommending it to everyone!

I have been maybe 5 or 6 times to Orathai and can honestly say it is fantastic.The gentleman who runs it is lovely and always so polite and helpful.The food is delicious - the massaman and pad thai tasted exactly like we ate in Thailand. My tip is go early. They are only open weds-sat and every night it is busy. Don't go if you are pushed for time or want a fast meal. It is great food served when it is cooked - if it's busy you have to wait. It's a small family run restaurant and The gentleman runs round all night doing all the serving, drinks, bills all himself With no other staff helping.The prices are very reasonable especially on £5 curry nights (weds/Thurs) the golden curry is highly recommended.

This is a quaint little place that could easily be missed in the little village of Wrea Green. Yes, the decoration is dated (as are a few Thai places in the area) but this doesn't usually put us off - this usually means the food will be better than those fancy looking places in Manchester which are all style over substance. I assume the place is family run, and when the restaurant was full the service was a little slow as the gentleman was on his own, but polite and friendly all the same.The food was very good quality and great value - our final bill was relatively cheap compared to other nearby Thai restaurants. The only small criticism I would have is that the portions were a little small for our liking, however this won't put us off visiting again.They also do £5 for a curry and rice on Wednesdays and Thursdays - I haven't tried that personally but this is very good value!

I went here over the weekend for the first time and was not disappointed. Although the decor inside is not the most modern the food compensates for this, in addition, I was extremely surprised about the pricing of the main meals which were extremely cheap in comparison to the other Thai restaurants in the Fylde Coast area. Initially, there were only a few other couples in the restaurant but within half an hour, ALL the tables got filled - proving to be an extremely popular place. The beef Thai salad, mixed starters and Massaman curry were top notch! I would highly recommend people to consider trying this restaurant as we will be back :)I think that this place would be even more popular if the restaurant was correctly listed on Tripadvisor - it does not come under Thai restaurants when choosing by cuisine.

Have visited this restaurant several times with my friends. The service is very good, the food is excellent. I know my friends go a lot and when ever I have been with them we have had a good time.The price is also fair. Have paid much much more for meals else ware that are not a patch on this place.

Great little family run authentic Thai Restaurant in the quaint village of Wrea Green. We drive past multiple Thai restaurants to repeat the Orathai experience. Never disappoints. Great food and won't hurt the wallet. Be mindful of Thai restaurants that do charge a lot, they more often than not translate to a sub par Thai dining experience. Orathai is the real deal.

I have been here twice with my Grandma recently who lives locally. On Wednesday & Thursday they have a £5 deal on and I have to say the quality of the ingredients is truly exceptional and the attention of the staff is first class. I have had the Pad Thai Prawn Curry and Thai Green Curry. My G'ma had the Golden Thai Curry as it is more fragrant than 'spicey'. I also had the scallops once which were delicious. Ditto the spring rolls. Washed down with a few Singha beers = One Happy Customer. Whenever I am back up North I will always ensure fro now on that a visit to Orathai is on the agenda. It is a very relaxed, family operation and well worth a visit to one of the best kept villages in the country.

Wonderful food in an unhurried atmosphere served by polite and happy people..... What's not to like? This small restaurant is ideal for the small picturesque village of Wrea Green and is a well kept secret. I have eaten there on many occasions and have never come away feeling anything other than satisfied with the food, service and value. I almost feel that I want to keep it secret but the proprietor is such a welcoming gent that I feel obliged to share!There are offers of a £5 curry night on Wednesdays & Thursdays but the value goes beyond those days as does the courtesy & welcome.... One tip... Don't travel without booking.... Although he does his best to accommodate everyone there are times that visitors are turned away due to its small yet comfortable size..... Takeaways are available but not at the drop of a hat so order well in advance of your time to eat!

We visited this Thai restaurant recently for a family celebration. The restaurant is small and very quaint. There is plenty of choice on the menu and the food was very tasty and well presented. The service from the owner was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. The waitress helping out was also very courteous & friendly. It was a Saturday night and all the tables were taken, so make sure you book.

We are here one evening during our holiday at Ribby Hall, just about a mile away. We were very impressed with both the food and the service. We were so pleased with the food and menu choice that on another evening we ordered a takeaway - excellent and definitely recommended.

Went here for a friends birthday and wasn't disappointed. It was a Thursday night and didn't realise that it as £5.00 curry night until we arrived.We only saw one person, but he greeted us at the door, showed us to our table, took our drinks order and food order and served us throughout with food and drinks. Nothing too much trouble, didn't have any unnecessary waiting and the food was beautiful, and reasonably priced. The portions were just the right size too, it's not very often that I clear my plate at a Thai restaurant - it was lovely. I Will definitely go there again and would highly recommend.

We live locally and decided on a last minute early evening meal out. Friends of mine highly rate this place for their take aways. Decor very definitely old fashioned and certainly nothing special. I was disappointed with starters platter as just not enough on it, but tasty enough. Didn't do children's portions. When the main meals arrived we felt let down with what appeared to be a small portion. I ordered the Thai green curry and rice. The rice came in a tiny teeny weeny bowl. However I must say, I left feeling full and the curry was delicious. I was finger licking the bowl! The place seemed to fill up very quickly despite it being mid week which was nice to see. If I wanted a low key night out with my hubi then I'd be happy to go again. Something a bit more special then I'd go elsewhere. The service wasn't all that special either. One thing I must comment on is that the toilets could do with a good hot wipe down. Looked dirty and dust was thick on the plastic plant on top of the loo cistern. I always use the state of the toilets as a way to judge the cleanliness of the kitchen.

i go there at least once a week and never realised that they were on trip advisor until I saw the sticker in the window last week.it is a very small cosy restaurant where the owner run the floor on his own and his partner cooks in the kitchen.the food is simply and full of flavour. manu guests are regular as it is a reasonable price and very personal restaurant.they do a fantastic £5.00 curry on Wednesday and Thursday and that is why we are going there so often, reasonably priced but never to the detriment of quality.the steamed dumpling, hot & Sour Soup, pepper & Garlic King Prawn and many other dishes are fantastic.if you go there and do not like it I would be very surprised.go there and you will not be disappointed.well done Orathai and i wish that there were more restaurateur like you!!!!

A fantastic Thai restaurant in the heart of picturesque Wrea Green. Excellent service throughout the night and very attentive to all of our needs. The food was delicious and enjoyed by all of our group.

This place is a little gem! It was absolutely packed when we arrived but the lovely waitress accomodated us straight away. I agree with the previous review, it does feel like you are eating in someone's living room! But the food makes up for that.The food was fresh, tasty & fantasticly fragrant. We had a pleasantly surprising experience. We would definitely recommend this place for Thai food in the fylde area.

We have just returned from a visit here based on the good reviews on there and also a recommendation from someone at work. Unfortunately it was incredibly disappointing! We love Thai food, have travelled to Thailand several times so know how good authentic thai food is and also eat regularly in decent thai places in Manchester, so were quite excited to see a Thai place in the Preston area and thought we'd give it a go. The place was empty when we arrived, the decor as said before is very dated and looks like someone's living room. The guy who greeted us didn't look overly happy to be there but was polite enough. We ordered spring rolls and chicken satay for starters. I highly believe they were microwaved, they reminded me of the type you buy in the supermarket - also I could hear a lot of beeping that sounded like a microwave coming from the kitchen before our starters came out and also just before the table next to us starters came out.For mains we ordered chicken in pepper and garlic sauce and Weeping Tiger (Beef in some kind of sauce - sorry can't remember what exactly), and also a side of veg and egg fried rice. You didn't get very much chicken, the sauce wasn't overly flavourful and generally just tasted a bit bland. My boyfriend said his beef was ok, nothing special but better than my chicken. We dared to order desert, my boyfriend had the apple caramel pie, I had the chockarocka cake. My cake was supposed to be a biscuit base with chocolate and white chocolate mouse on top. It was actually a biscuit base with ice cream on top, but afer eating a bit more we realised it was mousse but it was frozen.Overall, if I had received this as a take away I may have been a bit happier. It was basically very basic, bland thai food. Would not go back and wouldn't recommend it at all.

My husband and I visited Orathai recently. We found the staff to be very welcoming and attentive. If you enjoy eating in exquisite, trendy, decor surroundings, then this is not the restaurant for you. On the other hand, if you enjoy beautiful tastes and an intimate setting, then it is. You do feel as though you are sat in a living room in the 1980's and the wallpaper does need to be brought into this century but we prefer good food rather than judging the setting. It was very clean. We had the Golden platter to start which included extremely Devine Satay chicken, spring rolls, Sesame prawn toast, fish cakes served with peanut and sweet chilli sauce. We both thoroughly enjoyed our main meals. At first view, we both thought the portions looked small but we certainly did not feel hungry afterwards. Our three course meal, three glasses of wine and a large bottle of sparkling wine came to a snip at £50. All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable culinary delight.

My wife and I eat here at least once a month and the food is allways excellent.
