Orienthai in Brighton and Hove

Ordered takeaway at 18:50 and it’s now 21:00 hours and we still haven’t received it. Tried to call the restaurant and they just keep hanging up on us - the driver that was went there to collect our order was waiting there for over 45 minutes he then gave up and now they’re looking for another driver? At this rate we won’t get the food until 10pm and I bet it will be cold! Stay tuned. If you’re going to this place then that’s probably good based on the previous reviews but if you get a delivery, make sure you allow at least three hours for it to arrive.

I really enjoyed the chow mein noodles and would visit 100 times over, very friendly service and fresh food.

The owner/chef was very welcoming and explained menu items very well. She made sure to patiently explain any queries and I would recommend going here simply for the service. The food was amazing and very filling.

Halal food, Fantastic, delicious food, authentic taste we loved, i recommend to every one to try orienthai food

The best oriental food I eat so far , very good customer service and authentic taste, I do recommend highly to everyone

Their food is v good and tasty. The restaurant is clean and tidy🤗 Lovely people welcome you and help with choosing your order nicely 🤗 Such a beautiful place for Thai food 🌺 I highly recommend 🤗

This restaurant accepted our order over Uber eats. Kept delaying the delivery time despite us paying for a speedy delivery. We waited, watching the time being pushed back for an hour and a half. Then they cancelled the order. On speaking to them they said ‘we are really busy’. DONT TAKE THE BLINKING ORDER THEN YOU GREEDY (INSERT EXPLETIVE).

Always tip top. No matter what I order, always great

We’ve never eaten in but orienthai is our go to Thai takeaway place, it used to be our local, since moving we have tried a few others but always come back - the food is fresh and so many options that actually feel healthy, not your typical greasy takeaway - although they do have those options if that’s what you want too!

Best halal thi food in Brighton. Really recommend them

I love Orienthai! The food is delicious! They make everything from scratch with fresh ingredients and the portions are so generous. Usually enough for two meals. The chefs are lovely and always happy to see you. Always a pay day treat. 😊

It is difficult in UK 🇬🇧 to find Thai food like what you eat in Thailand 🇹🇭 .. This wonderful restaurant will take you there

I have eaten here multiple times, food is always very nice 👌

Excellent, delicious to be honest, nice staff and customer service

I've ordered from here for years now. The portion size-to-price ratio is honestly unbeatable... some of the dine-in Thai restaurants in Brighton charge literally double the price for curries of the same (or lesser) serving size. They have a large menu with all of the expected dishes plus some less common ones. In terms of quality, well this is definitely takeaway food, but it's pretty good for what it is. I like that they use a wider variety of vegetables in most dishes than I typically encounter at other Thai restaurants in this area. I've never had any issues with service, either for collection or delivery. You can order delivery directly from the restaurant so there's no need to pay extra fees to Deliveroo or JustEat. That's one of the main reasons I like this place, because I hate using those apps if I can avoid it. They always pay attention to any special requests I make and deliver the food on time, which is all I expect really. Thanks!

Excellent service I really liked

Amazing food! We had the green curry, yellow curry, pad thai, salt and pepper chicken, veg spring rolls, duck spring rolls and sweetcorn cakes -they were all so tasty. Staff here are really friendly too. Food is a good price as well.

Absolutely diabolical service, We placed an order which took about an hour to come. Opened the order for over half of it to be completely wrong. Called them up. Women said she put wrong items in bag and would send driver with correct food. 45 mins later called back again to see where he was, to be greeted by a male saying she only works there and shouldn’t of said that, as they won’t be replacing with correct food. And I would get free food next order. I explained we wouldn’t be ordering again and if that’s the case can we have a refund and they can collect order. He said no he would not give us our money back that’s not how it works! I said yes it is you’ve taken our money for food we didn’t order receive nor like or will eat. He said they was too busy to replace food and tough basically! I am absolutely fuming and disgusted, over £30 taken with no food or so much as an apology. They’ve basically stolen our money! DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE THEY ARE A DISGRACE!

I had a couple of dishes at this place it was the best thai food I ever had. Thank you for the welcoming place.

Not happy ,ordered online for a delivery waited for an hour & 15 minutes so phoned to see where it was, lady I spoke to was very rude telling me they busy , said they only just started to cook our food, so going to be at least another 30 minutes. No apology, Very bad customer service. Will not be using them again as this is not the first time it has happened. Finally arrived 2 hours later ☹️

Such a fantastic Thai food, something different and so tasty, I become a regular now this place So great food , friendly, thrustwhorty staff. Best in BRIGHTON Thank you very much.

i order from orienthai quite often - food always comes so quickly and always fresh and hot! everything i’ve tried on the menu has been spot on but my favourite is the massuman curry!

Amazing food for the best price, offers halal food and good menu Try there pad peri chicken

"Don't Bother" This place used to be fantastic, one of the best in Brighton, all i can think of is that it has new ownership ? Gone right down hill, I for one will be going elsewhere in future.

Amazing food from such friendly people!! We choose to pick it up and it was ready in 20mins as said and was piping hot for us! We asked for extra peanuts and they didn’t hold back, was all so tasty and great value for money! We will be back!!

I love their food, always getting myself noodles.

This is an undiscovered gem, the Thai food is absolutely delicious, you can really taste the fresh ingredients. It’s like being back in Thailand! Would recommend the chicken wings, very soft and falls off the bone. The duck pad thai is mouth watering. Have eaten here lots and it never disappoints. Pen the owner is very friendly and welcoming.

Very lovely service he let us in although they were preparing to close food cooked fresh and served hot loved it

I was craving for some fried rice and tom yum after 2 weeks in Brighton. As I scrolled the UberEat apps, I found this halal Thai restaurant nearby so we decided to give it a try. A young petite Thai aunty will welcome you with a friendly gestures and would recommend you with assorted of menus. As Malaysian, I already knew what I want la. I ordered spicy chicken Tom Yum with egg fried rice together with a full house Chow Mein. Everything tasted good honestly. The Tom yum was full with chicken, mushrooms, galangal(lengkuas), lemongrass(serai), onion & kefir leaves 🍃. The Full House Chow Mein was packed with veggies, chicken, beef & prawns. We spoke a lot with the owner, a Muslim turkish man and he is so humble. In total we spent around £30. Highly recommended & guaranteed aroy dee 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Halal certified & Muslim owned Sincerely Yousef & Madihah from Manchester

I love Thai food so much, and I love their serving’s because it’s authentic. You can talk to chef in the kitchen to make changes in something like spicy levels. As I said that, people work here and atmosphere is so comfortable like you are eating in your own house even. Absolutely must to check out if haven’t.

Beware of ordering from here. It is not good value for money and the staff are extremely rude and unhelpful. There must be 100 better places to eat in Brighton.

Most delicious thai food i’ve ever had!

Very Disappointed after using this Takeaway many times, Meat pancake rolls so salty I could not eat them, crispy duck should be crispy fat no duck meat, I spent over fifty pounds, Absolute disgrace I will never be using this Takeaway again!!

Super delicious food. Its one of my favourite takeaway. %100 recommended

Food is extremely delicious and plenty, my favourite thai restaurant in Brighton. 👍🏻

Food was soo good! We came from kent to visit brighton, worried about halal food alhamdulilah we came accross this esablishment. At first we wasnt sure if we were going to sit in as it was a small restuarant (1 x4 seater and 2 x2 seater tables) but we bite thr bullet and sat down along with our 1 1/2 year old son. We was not disapointed at all, we enjoyed the meal and our son loved it too! The owner is a really nice guy, he was serving us which is nice to see. Plus everythng is fresh! Nothing ready made as the menu stated. Thank you will be sure to visit again next time we come brighton!

We Trini love the food Filled with flavour It real best allyuh And yes it's halal This comment is from August 2023

Honestly amazing Asian food, we enjoyed so much, Authentic tasty, really fresh cook, recommended everyone.

Pretty mediocre food standard, massive overuse of MSG (Glutamat), fluffy rice was actually a microwaved block of precooked rice (still in plastic bag) being put in a tray to give the impression of an adequate portion of rice (which it wasn't), unappealing/cheap impression, all three of us agreed that MSG and food leaves a unpleasant taste, being busy on Saturday night is no excuse, overall not recommended,

The best Thai take away in Brighton friendly staff and delicious food always on the time. Do miss.

I used to order here all the time and was a longtime customer when I was in 1st year of uni. I decided to order again tonight but the quality of the food has declined drastically since the last time. All the food was extremely oily, greasy and very bland. Both my partner and I ended up not being able to eat it as the amount of oil/grease was making us feel sick. We put a complaint in through uber (which we ordered through) and we are waiting to hear back from. Overall, very disappointing and will not be ordering again. Edit: We got a full refund through uber because of how bad it was. In response to the response below, we chose to complain through uber rather than directly after reading the reviews of other customers that complained being verbally abused. After having another look at the reviews and reading though the other abusive written responses we will definitely not be ordering from here again.

The food is actually quite nice, aside from some suspect meat, but they're getting two stars due to their customer service. The owners obviously didn't know I speak Thai (I'm white) so I could understand all the problematic comments they were making about my physical appearance. I also think they printed their own food hygiene certificate, as the number doesn't match the one on the FSA website.

A very tasty and delicious food.

Amazing oriental food, food cooked with fresh ingredients, tasty, helpful staff..your got 5 star from me .

Ordered three times now and tried different dishes and every last dish is better than the last and feels like I can’t stop eating, all that i can say is great job and its HALAL

Ordered my food from this place by mistake (very similar name to oriental which is a Chinese takeaway a few shops down the same road ) The food however was nice Served by a lovely lady at the counter Food was hot and tasty My only reason for not giving 5* is that I feel the dish could have had a little more meat in And I’m used to 10 chicken balls not 8 Overall a nice experience and would return

Amazing food! And customer service. Requested more spice in my takeout and it was done just right . Definitely going back

The food is excellent, fresh and delicious. However, recently the service has not been good. We've had numerous problems; waited nearly two hours for delivery, had the wrong food delivered, gone to collect food, got home and its the wrong food. On one occasion I rang to discuss the problem and the phone was put down on me. We love to support local, but not when the service is so bad.

Only writing a review as we really enjoy the food. I can only speak as I find. My other half looked at the reviews after we ordered and I was a bit worried but everything was fresh and tasty. Like to support local business and will be a return customer.

Lovely staff and food. Always make us and our stomach happy 🥰

First time I have tried this eatery and ordered a delivery of their vegetarian starter special. Really good, arrived in the allocated time slot, it was hot and tasty and very generous portions. I will use again and recommend to my friends. Thank you!!

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING 🤢 🤮 My partner got food poisoning! This place is vile all round. Awful food disgusting service Obnoxious staff (they are SOOOO rude may I add) Curry was watery, no flavour and arrived freezing cold, rice was seriously over cooked and gloopy, Thai crackers were extremely stale, squid was rubbery, half cooked, tasteless and cold as well. I have had better duck spring rolls but they were also cold and chewy. Delivery driver took 45 minutes to deliver the food and then could not find my simple placed home, rung me up and was rude and abrupt towards me. The grim food is incredibly over priced and not worth the money at all. I would recommend the giggling squid all the way! Yum!! This place should not be in business. End of. I have rung them multiple times asking for my full and completely entitled refund and they hang up on me saying “very busy” with a vile attitude. The chefs are not that busy otherwise they would be making half decent food. They have said they have never ever had a complaint. HILARIOUS! 😂 So, final conclusion is; DO NOT go here if you have any taste because you will be seriously disappointed. I have a friend who already is not going to order from here again. So happy losing costumers. Tah Tah 👋 😊

The best Thai takeaway ever. I just had a Crispy Roasted Duck / Ped Ma-Kham and Pad Prik (Mixed Seafood). Absolutely delicious and very good sized portions.

The food is amazing, very good portion size, and superb service!

Love it, I order a lot there, it s very tasty and they are very kind :)

I don't know what all the negative reviews are about? Never had a problem with this place, staff are very friendly and food is affordable and tasty.

Foods it’s great and fast service always

Excellent customer service" tasty food I loved

Really delicious food at this Thai in Brighton. We went for some spring rolls, a chicken ginger dish, chicken penang, coconut rice. The food was very fresh and fragrant, incredibly tasty!

Really great food! We ordered a chicken penang and partner had a ginger chicken dish. We both got a rice too. Very fresh and tasty!

Ordered ubereats and was very surprised at firstly the portion size and most importantly the taste. The Mussaman curry was delicious and so was the Pad Siew with Duck. Would definitely order again!

The best Amazing food, we loved, will go again, thanks Orienthai

My favourite takeaway! I love this place so much, I’m shocked it doesn’t have a 5 star rating. Such amazing food and the woman that runs it is so friendly. Its also super vegan friendly! I recommend the Panang curry it’s sooo good

Best thai food in Brighton! I always order from these guys because I know it will great every time! Also plenty of veggie options to choose from

It was really nice food and thank you for the taste your food. I will go definitely again.

Tastes off and smells weird. Not much going on. I will be updating this review if I wake up I’ll tomorrow

Always tasty, fresh and authentic. One of my favourite Thai places in Brighton

Omg amazing food I love it. 😋🤌🙌 Really delicious. We will order again..thank you so much ORIENTAL ❤

Always have been a loyal customer to them, and always will be. Their food is cooked fresh to perfection & any noodle dish I get always tasted amazing! Always recommend this place for a affordable Thai experience.

Very quick delivery through Uber eats. Food very tasty pad Thai and red curry delicious. Only reason 4 star not 5 as found the egg fried rice a bit stodgy but flavour was good

Really nice food ... Grate service ... Food arrived on time ..

My favourite takeaway in the Brighton area atm! Tastes so good and comes incredibly fast. Never had a bad experience, been putting my friends on for months now!

Very poor , I was ok before but the quality of food it’s not the same , and the service it’s horrible, imposible communication by phone or email, gave last chance 3 weeks ago, after more than 2 hours my food wasn’t with me yet, driver called me said he was outside, he wasn’t, I called the restaurant saying I didn’t want the food any more because was more than 2h from the order was made it and I wanted my money back, they said will refund on my account after 2 weeks , that was on 1 November and I still waiting for my money back, so bad don’t trust that people ( order 850990) 8-apr-2021 After some time ( 2-3 months)decided to give other opportunitie to Orienthai, have to say that they gave me the money back after first review and food quality improved a lot, service also much better, delivered within 40-45 minutes last 2 times I ordered, well done

Best green curry in Brighton. Affordable, full of flavour and vegetables. It takes me back to Thailand like no other thai curries I’ve tasted in Brighton. Pad thai is pretty amazing too! And the service? Warm and friendly!

Amazing oriental food to be honest, I do order often and every order I feel my food cooked with fresh ingredients, tasty, good portions also I like customer service very polite and helpful staff..your got 5 star from me .. thank you,

Lovely best thai takeaway I've used.

Ordered some duck, prawns pad thai and fried rice. Only the duck was worth eating, to Be honest. Thank god I used an Uber Eats discount and didn’t pay the full price.

Last night we ordered: Spicy chicken wings - loads of fresh chilli (not too hot), great sauce and amazing flavour Penang Curry (chicken) - Very nice, best Thai curry we have ever had! Pad Thai vegetarian - Very tasty Crispy Roasted Duck / Ped Ma-Kham - So much duck, lost for words, so good! Roasted Chilli Fried Rice Mixed Vegetables - Great, perfect for sharing. Sticky rice – Cant go wrong, but good :) We never normally write reviews but wanted to let people know that this restaurant is the best! We ended up choosing Orienthai because of the reading though the tripadvisor reviews and seeing the owners response to a person who sent in a low review, the owner was clearly not happy that someone felt the food they prepared was not good enough, perhaps went a bit too far with the reply but showed how much they care! The review was in no way comparable to the amazing food we received last night. We work on Lewes road so will recommending Orienthai to anyone looking for a good take away.

We had a very disappointing experience. They were still preparing our order an hour and a half after we'd ordered it through Uber Eats and when we called up to check on it they were very rude and hung up on us twice. We gave them feedback on our experience through Uber Eats and they replied defensively saying 'No time to talk long time on the phone' and 'If your order came late or so slow, then Uber Eats responsible not we are!' The Uber Eats driver was very friendly and apologised for us having to wait so long for the food to be prepared. The food was ok in the end but we sadly won't be ordering from them again.

I love the Dim Sum! 😀😀 Awesome thai. Thai pad Thai really good too.

good food, good location, ........

Great Asian food, wonderful service with big smile, Very skilful communicators , definitely coming back to you Big thumb up
