Padthai Southsea in Portsmouth

Flavourful food and excellent service

Scrumptious great food, just a little crowded when it's busy.

I don’t usually leave reviews but I am extremely satisfied with the meal we had. Our waiter was called Sri and he was fantastic! He gave amazing service, gave recommendations on food which we loved ! Food was 10/10 got 3 starters snd 3 mains which was well worth it. Will come back next week.

I have never been a fan of Thai food but my mind has been changed. We were greeted by friendly staff and felt welcome immediately. The menu is quite large for a small place but there is s good choice and the drinks are quite reasonable. I had the Tamarind prawns and Gabrielle (my wife) had the Lamb Masaman curry.. Both were first class. Highly recommended.

Nice place, reasonably priced, professional staff.

What an absolute gem! It was my birthday yesterday and we'd eaten out in the day elsewhere and were feeling a bit dejected. So to make up for it, we decided to have a last minute dash to Pad Thai. And how glad I am that we made the trip! It ended up making my birthday! Exceptional food. All the flavours, fresh ingredients, that transports you back to Thailand with every mouthful! Between us we had the lemongrass seabass, pad thai, prawn penang curry and a tom yum soup. Every dish was superb! Aside from which, the service was spot on, super friendly and super accommodating. Thank you Pad Thai, we will absolutely be back!

Really great green curry and satay. The quality of chicken meat can be a bit better but I like this place and the atmosphere. I can imagine it gets cosy here when it’s super cold outside, nice spot for a dinner.

Excellent food and fantastic service

Excellent restaurant worthy of the great reviews. Have been to many Thai places over the years and the food here is definitely up there in terms of authenticity and quality. The restaurant is fairly simple and rustic, so a bit like being in Thailand. Very good value too.

Another faultless meal at Pad Thai . Flavoursome and fresh . This place never disappoints . In my opinion best Thai in Portsmouth. Our server this evening Safe , was fantastic . Even though we ate early the restaurant was very busy with diners and takeaway orders . Safe was calm under the pressure , what’s more he was lovely and very friendly .

Delicious food, great value and lovely staff.

So good! Great food, friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

ordered the tamarind duck and chicken coconut curry and it was lovely. the duck was really nice with the crispy noodles and sea weed and it was a nice light but filling takeaway with the coconut soup too. delivery also came in good time and they were kind and polite

Service was fantastic and felt like a family run business … the food is well worth the price!

This was our second visit to Pad Thai and was as fantastic as our first visit. Food was delicious, customer service very good with realistic pricing. Pad Thai is really a hidden gem and well worth the visit

Food was fresh and delicious Singapore noodles and Sea Bass !! Excellent. The service from Sri was perfect Thank you We will be back Highly recommend

Absolutely amazing experience The most authentic Thai food and vibe in the UK The chef is Thai ✨️👌 Really impressed 👏 Friendly atmosphere Great value for money and quality food Highly recommended 💎

What an amazing find. Exceptionally good value. Wonderful menu, that was hard to choose. But the items myself and other friends choices were fabulous. So much so that by the time we finished our meal, I felt I had been eating in Asia not Southsea!! I cannot recommend this place more highly. The sad bit is I do not live close by, otherwise this would be a regular booking....

Reasonably priced drinks, Excellent meal, not badly priced and a bonus of 10% off if we didn’t use cards…

I have tried many dishes at PadThai in Southsea, and they are by far the best Thai restaurant in Portsmouth. Prices are fare and the food is always to the highest of standards. The people that own/work at the restaurant are very kind and honourable people. Would highly recommend!

Great lunch offer £5.95 bit Google does not show they are open for lunch. Authentic taste

Amazing food, lovely service, overall 10/10 experience absolutely would come again, please come here and have the duck pad thai and if you don't eat meat then have the tofu, as it's equally good.

The best Thai restaurant we’ve ever been too. The food is so good, authentic and fresh. Highly recommend, but you have to book

Food is excellent - our party had a mixture of starters - chicken satay duck and vegetable rolls and crispy beef - all excellent For mains we had the sirloin beef, Salmon Pad Thai & Chicken Singapore Noodles with Thai curry - again all excellent Drinks are reasonably priced Staff are very helpful - will return

Really lovely little restaurant with delicious, authentic food and great service. I had the lamb massaman which was excellent with very good, tender meat. Would definitely recommend.

This is a real Thai authentic best restaurant in town. Pad Thai was awesome, soft, and tender rice noodle absorbed with a special recipe, vegan friendly sauce. Cucumber salad was fresh and tasty. Even the rice was soft, fluffy, and fragrance. You can pick anything on the menu, and then it would be all delicious!😋😋😋 On top of delicious Thai food, they will serve you with warm and mindful service.

Excellent authentic Thai food at reasonably prices. Book early, usually full.

Love this small but intimate restaurant, the Lemongrass Sea Bass is my favorite, absolutely great Food. Highly recommend, and if you pay cash you get a discount!! 🙏🏼🌹

Had a meal that was during the lu ch time menu. So good. Me and wife loved it. Got crispy beef and fish cake. The fish cake are so good. I'm not keen on Thai but loved this place and going again today

Amazing food! Quick delivery via website. Good sized portions! 100% recommend. And will be returning!

All the reviews are right. It's a nice place. Only not an amazing place. The food is tasty, the staff friendly and the bill reasonable only not good enough for 5 stars.

Managed to get a table at short notice as we were let down by another Thai restaurant. We were lucky. The staff were helpful, the food was excellent and the prices were very reasonable. Well located for a Kings theatre pre-show meal and we'll definitely be booking again. Highly recommended.

Best Path-thai in Portsmouth, you feel like you are having Path-thai in Thailand, and is not expensive.

Excellent! Honestly a fantastic meal at a great price! We visited Saturday 17 Feb and they managed to squeeze us in (thank you!). We ordered tamarind prawns (9/10), Thai green veg curry (9/10) and prawn pad Thai (8/10) Customer service fantastic and decent wine sold at a fair price.

Very friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely hot, tastey fresh food. Excellent personal service. Would highly recommend.

This place is wonderful such lovely friendly staff and absolutely delicious food.

Was pleasantly surprised, outstanding fresh Thai food, great service, seriously some of the best Thai food I have had. Take cash as there is a 10% discount for paying cash.

Hands down one of the best Thai Dinners O have had. The food was fresh, light and tasteful and well presented. Don't expect the Ritz, but the food wow, Crispy Beef and Fish Cakes to Start, Lemon Grass See Bass and Tiger Steak were superb.

Wonderful little restaurant. Food is amazing and the staff were charming

Stumbled across this place whilst visiting Portsmouth. What a treat! Excellent lunchtime deal, very friendly service, delicious food - smiles all round. The Thai milk tea was especially lovely; highly recommend.

Best Thai restaurant in Portsmouth by a country mile! Tried them all and this is the best!

Five of us visited Pad Thai in Southsea for dinner on 5 January It is a small restaurant, seating I'd guess about 25 diners. It had a really nice atmosphere and the staff were excellent throughout our visit - friendly and great service We had a selection of vegetarian, vegan and fish starters and main courses plus rice. Everything was very good In addition to the food we had 6 bottles of beer, a bottle of cider and a soft drink At a cost of £103 it was very reasonably priced

Have always ordered from here which is always very reasonable and delicious, but by chance couldn’t eat at a restaurant over the road so came here. Service was impeccable, drinks brought quickly and food shortly after. 10/10 cannot fault anything.

Amazing food!!! Been here 5/6 times and will continue to do so. Highly recommend.

This review is for the pad thai Bankok restaurant at 62MarineParadeGreat Yarmouth this is run by a husband and wife team and nothing is too much trouble,the place is spotless and the food is superb, will certainly be going back All food is cooked to order so it arrives at your table, pipping hot and fresh

Wow, wow and wow, easily the best Thai food in Southsea, good portions, authentic cookery with fantastic service by the young man that served us tonight (Thursday 30th November) we will definitely be returning:) also great value too

Lovely place, great food, 10% off for cash, good service

No pretentious. Everything taste authentic Thai food. Very satisfied with the food. 1st time visiting and will definitely come back.

We loved the food and will be returning soon. Nice staff. Good price for the food.

Great food, fantastic service. Cooked by a husband and wife who are from Thai. So you get authentic taste. Would definitely go back..highly recommended.

Really nice people and great food 😋

Warmly welcomed and served by Shriram. Food was outstanding - truly authentic Thai cuisine. Delicious. Loved the restaurant’s decor and ambiance too. Highly recommend. We’ll be back asap.

A real treasure to discover. Inexpensive delicious food. Staff so incredibly friendly and welcoming. Truly joyful place.

Reasonable, fresh and tasty. A gem.

I love the food and Thai hasn't been a favourite of mine prior to eating here. The staff are friendly and make efforts to accommodate my request of 'no chilli' !! Is now a regular take away option for us 😀

My favourite Thai in Portsmouth. Always nice staff and good food.

Maybe we caught a bad night. The ribs were large with plenty of meat..but were warm and dry. maybe reheated? Sadly the chicken in the curry was stringy, tiny and not enjoyable, most was uneaten. The service was fast and friendly. Truly hope this experiences was a one off we will certainly be returning.

Had a fantastic meal here. Never been before, but we were very glad we did. Staff were friendly and the food was just amazing. Prices were reasonable. Comfy and cosy atmosphere.

I don't normally leave reviews, but I had to for this place. We've ordered here many times and it is some of the best food I've ever eaten. Everything is absolutely delicious, and the staff are wonderful.

I have been coming here for a few years and can honestly say that Pad Thai never fails to impress. The food is exceptional, the service is great and the prices very reasonable. I have been to Thailand and this restaurant is very authentic and I highly recommend. The atmosphere is great too!

Green curry not as hot as a Madras as suggested, Massaman curry hotter than stated mild curry. That aside lovely food and certainly popular but sadly Jungle Curry is not on the menu. The Beef salad was hot and took another portion home as it was so yummy

Absolutely incredible little restaurant. My girlfriend and I stumbled upon here by chance. Food was incredible and very reasonable prices. Polite and chatty staff. Would definitely like to visit again. Would recommend booking as it was very busy.

Really enjoyed the food. The beef salad was crispy and fresh, the Tom yum was vibrant and spicy and the curry's delicious.

Absolutely delicious food recommend a visit

From the starters to the main course we were both delightfully impressed with our meals especially the service from Josh who is knowledgeable,polite and helpful. A credit to this wonderful restaurant imho Will definitely come back & will use the takeaway option

Our first time trying pad thai and it didn't dissapoint. The service was fantastic, he was friendly and funny. Great food, great service, great experience.

Popped in here after seeing they were to where we were staying. Very friendly staff. I tried pad Thai for the first time and can honestly say I wasn't disappointed, beautifully cooked and delicious.

Generally this is our go to, once a month as a treat, but it seems we have ordered twice this week!! We have tried a few different meals, but now have our favourites. The veg are fresh and crunchy, the chicken or prawns are always plentiful. Our meal is delivered quick no matter if it's a weekend or a week day. It's hot and very tasty. Wonderful food every time.

We lived in Thailand for 10 years. Our daughter in law is Thai. This is without doubt the BEST Thai food we have had in the UK.

Absolutely fabulous food. Authentic Thai. So good went back the next night. ( only staying in Portsmouth 2 nights) Service was also excellent. Only a small place so you need to book. Go, you won’t be disappointed

Small, informal, great service, great food

Very good value....authentic thai food.

Lovely service, lovely food , have been going here for lots of meals, love it.

Fantastic meal and the service couldn’t be better. Not as big a portion of food we were used to, but the quality and the service we had made up for it. Will be back!

Such a friendly service and the food was amazing! Will definitely be ordering again for takeaway and visiting the restaurant to eat in as it looked so nice and a really lovely atmosphere in there. Our new favourite!

Absolutely fabulous food & service & we enjoyed it so much that we went 2 evenings running. Highly recommended.

Absolutely hands down my favourite Thai place in Southsea.

Fantastic and tentative service. The food was amazing, and I had the best pad thai I've ever had outside of Thailand. 10/10

I go here at least once a week probably more, I could eat here everyday n not get tired of it and that's as a gluten free vegan. The food is unbelievable, the service is outstanding, Josh makes you feel like part of the family and even the other customers, most of them you see most days, are brilliant.

Great little place near rhe Wedgewood Rooms. Probably best to book as it seems very popular. Service was very good, food was delicious and it was all great value for money

I visited with friends this week for the first time, following a friend’s recommendation. My starter, Gai Tord, was delicious. The portion was huge, definitely big enough for two to share. I took ages to choose my main but eventually settled on a penang curry with jasmine, which I thoroughly enjoyed 😀 I’ll definitely be back!

Superb. Halal dishes available here upon request.

Excellent food here and good value. Small and friendly.

I popped in a few weeks ago as I saw that there was a lunch deal. Friendly server and fresh interior. Really enjoyed the sweetcorn fritters and chicken pad thai and I intend to return to try their massaman curry. Comfortable to visit on your own. Note: sweetcorn fritters best I have tried.

After many years of visiting Thailand coking schools I never had much hope in UK suburbs of getting good thai food. Well we walked in and I thought oh no. The severs are not thai so it won't be good. How wrong was I. Never judge a book by Its cover. I asked for thai street food and it was fantastic. I would go over n over again if I live in the UK

Excellent Thai cuisine, fresh, delicious, authentic, great value for money and a gorgeous menu. We will be back for sure; thank you

Great food, the spicy Tom Yum was great! 👍

The food was so fresh and tasty. The different sauces with the various starters we tried were a delight. The crispy beef was my favourite and the tamarind sauce with the pan fries chicken very good. I had Thai green curry and coconut rice for mains and it was superb. Lots of flavour, good amount of spice and a big portion 🤩 did not feel rushed at all, very relaxed atmosphere and lovely friendly service.

We turned up for a spontaneous visit. The food was lovely, service was great. Would highly recommend eating here. My children absolutely loved the food as well and it was good value for money. Staff very friendly and accommodating as well 10/10. We do not live local which us disappointing otherwise we would be regular customers 😊

Amazing once again...food out of this world, so much flavour...service was excellent...Great atmosphere...would recommend anyone to eat here who loves authentic Thai ...chilled vibes..turn up in ya work cloths &get treated with the same awesome vibes...and they do delivery in 2 mile radius 💥...5 Star 🌟 🤩

Went here with a friend and couldn't stop ordering more and more! Amazing food at a great price. For 2 people to share 3 starters, 2 mains, 2 rice and 4 soft drinks, it all came to about £40. The waiter was very welcoming and the place had a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Definitely recommended x

Small restaurant serving excelled food. Always busy and well worth a visit. I have dined there many times. I consider this one of the best Thai restaurent locally.

Ww were in Southsea on a wet Saturday night in January and looking for somewhere to eat. And luckily, we managed to walk in and get a table here. Initially, we were told we only had an hour before another booking. But then the staff managed to shuffle a few tables to make more space, so we had longer. It was a fantastic meal, with delicious food and excellent service. My wife had the Gai Tord, followed by Lamb Massaman curry, which were both wonderful. And I had the spicy fishcakes, followed by Roast Duck Pad Thai, both of which were mouth-wateringly good. We would have had dessert, but we were stuffed! We'll definitely be back next time we're in Southsea.

I was recommended to this restaurant by a friend . I was not disappointed . The food was fabulous , Dumplings Ribs Satay For starters . Fall off the bone succulent ribs . Great and zesty satay. Fresh and zingy Pad Thai , deliciously spicy curry and amazingly tasty duck in tamarind . Josh our server was lovely , very pleasant and attentive . This is the best Thai food that I have had in Southsea.

This is the second time I’ve used this place recently, for take away, and the food is delicious. Great flavours, generous servings, reasonably priced and delivered hot. Will definitely be using it again.

Best Thai ever. Great price and speedy delivery A*

I had a lovely meal at a fair price. I will go back to this restaurant again.

Little gem of a Thai restaurant we discovered on Albert Road . The restaurant was very busy , it is small , but we got a table thankfully . I ate duck spring rolls my partner had prawn toast . For mains I had the...
