STEAK AND THAI in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Perfect in every way. Greeting, service and food. We have been to Hoi An several times now and always have a great evening.

Decided to visit this restaurant for my Dads birthday as a treat. Right from the start the service was top notch, very attentive and pleasant but not overbearing. It was just two of us and though I had no intention of mentioning it was a birthday treat, it came out to staff as we chatted to them. Dad was given alittle treat for his birthday which was a lovely touch. The food was great too. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

We were celebrating our Mum & Dad’s 56th Anniversary and couldn’t fault the ambience and the service which was fantastic! The food was incredible, well presented, hot and with delicious spices and so so tasty! Highly recommended and superb value for money. *****

We went for my husbands birthday and had the best night. Amazing food, amazing service. Can’t wait to go again!

At last! Ever since I was diagnosed with heart problems and changed my diet to a plant based one about eight years ago we have been trying to find an eatery somewhere in Cornwall where I live that understands that vegans don't just want to eat a darn vegan burger whenever they go out to dine. Finally we have found it and it was a complete delight. From the moment we walked in on a dull Thursday evening to the moment we left we were treated as if we were treasured guests. Probably because Hoi An is the restaurant of a independent hotel that still values it's guests and trains it's staff properly in the art of hosting, as opposed to part of a conglomerate chain who's only interest is shareholder profits. We were looked after in a way we have not been in a local restaurant for so long we had forgotten what it feels like. Anthony and a young lady who's name we forgot to ask (apologies) waited our table with great professionalism and just the right level of friendly familiarity at the same time as subtle attentiveness. Professionalism way beyond that which most younger folk seams to understand the value of. Fabrice the head chef and Lee the manager have clearly invested great time and effort (right down to making in-house seitan and other vegan receipt elements) in bringing together a range of vegan Asian/Vietnamese options which show that interesting vegan food can be delivered in the current hospitality setting even if the cost of living crisis is in full swing. The starter platter was delicious and very generous for two people, we then had the faux beef in black bean sauce and the faux pork char-siu with mixed vegetables and noodles accompanied by rice and more noodles. The vegan prawn crackers were also a fabulous touch. We shared a vegan dessert which also knocked the socks of most that we have had previously. The whole meal was quite frankly a revelation. We have only dined out in an Asian restaurant maybe once or twice since I became vegan as we have found that the only options have been simple (quite frankly lazy) mixed vegetable or tofu dishes which did little to inspire the price tag. To be presented with a menu of exciting and imaginative vegan Asian options was like being a kid in a sweet shop. We were so impressed we absolutely felt the need too speak directly with Fabrice to tell him how pleased we were with the food and to our pleasure found both Fabrice and Lee super willing to explain their passion and ambition for further developing their vegan menu. What lovely people. To top off the great evening we then found that Thursday evenings are vegan night and there was a 20% discount on the bill. What a lovely surprise. To say we will be back is such an understatement, it is fair to say that from now on Hoi An will be our first and preferred port of call for any eating out treats and trips going forward. Sure, the prices on first look might seem a little high but when you consider that a bit of fish in batter and chips almost anywhere in Cornwall (and quite often that will be a bit of Basa and have never seen the sea!) will now set you back about £16, Hoi An main course dishes at around £20 and for a platter which is super generous represent amazing value in our opinion. If you are vegan and thinking of giving Hoi-An a try we can only say, DO IT. We don't think you will be disappointed. If the alignment of dishes with their meat equivalents offends your sense of vegan purism we strongly suggest trying to get over it. In this day and age if we want restaurants to be able to deliver the innovative and time invested options that Hoi An are they have to cater for both the vegan purist and flexitarians who want to eat a greater amount of plant based meals whilst being able to have some expectation of what they will be getting. Thank you everyone at Hoi An you have finally proven to us that with care and effort it is possible to produce interesting vegan food in a dinning out setting in Cornwall.

We didn’t know what to expect from the outside, but the restaurant was lovely, service friendly and the food was absolutely gorgeous. No hesitation in recommending.

2 Adults, no booking on 11th August a Friday night. Shown to a nice table, orders taken by happy friendly staff. The restaurant doesn't look much from outside, but it's beautiful inside, clean, bright & spacious with beautiful mirrors and wallpaper 😀 Food arrived quickly and all 3 courses were absolutely delicious & well presented. Our plates were returned EMPTY 🙂 I'm very glad we walked in & we'd definitely recommend & go again if we were in the area again. 5 🌟

What a fantastic restaurant. I have never eaten such a lovely Asian food. It was marvelous! Also the personal were very kind. Absolutely a great place to eat!

Once inside it's great, but with it being inside the Westberry Hotel we couldn't find it at first. Everything is good: staff, decor, menu with an additional vegan menu that is the largest I have seen. Quite a good range of pressure beers too - it's not a hand pumped beer place. Definitely would eat here again.

Walked in without booking and the staff at Hoi An could not have been more helpful. They sat us down and took a drinks order and sorted us a window-side table within a few minutes. The staff were so helpful, when we asked for directions to a friends home (who invited us to visit whilst we dined) they could not answer at first, but within a few moments had returned with a postcode for the Sat nav. The meal was superb, the service was excellent and the whole atmosphere was so relaxed and welcoming we would make this our number one choice when returning to Bodmin.

Great place that I honestly think people forget that it's there. Food is fantastic, so fresh and cooked very well. Staff very friendly and one little mention to a young Irish (I think) lad, very good at what he does and you are a credit to the Restaurant. It was my Birthday and had my drink on the hoise which was a lobelybsuprise. Would definately go back again.

Very nice food. Spring rolls great, Thai green curry was really nice. Beer very reasonable, cheaper than the local pubs. Will go again

Great choice of food, Thai curries are good. Note that the car park can be tricky to get into especially if front bays are full. There are carparks nearby if you struggle with tight spaces.

So the missus and I decided to eat in the restaurant as we had the takeaway a while back and enjoyed it. We had the starters and mains and to say we were delighted would be an understatement. Fish dishes were cooked to perfection, the Panang curry was incredible and the service was spot on. The prices were very good considering the standard of everything was so good. Would recommend to anyone as I would also imagine the vegan option would also be incredible

We booked a table for 14 people to celebrate two family birthdays and we couldn’t fault the service, quality of food and the fact that all of our meals came out together with generous portions and high quality cuisine! Would definitely recommend Hoi An to...

We visited here for dinner on a recent trip to Cornwall. The service was very friendly and there is plenty of space in the restaurant. Plenty to choose from on the menu, and has a vegan menu too if that’s your thing. The starters we...

We stopped at this restaurant on our way to Marazion. We booked a table just an hour before arriving and they managed to get us the best table with amazing view. The service was excellent: really nice and quick. The prices a bit on the...

We went to this restaurant based on the previous excellent reviews. I’m afraid it did not live up to expectations. The food was “nice “ but ridiculously over priced. The calamari starter was £7.95 There were just 3 battered rings on my plate with a...

We booked a dinner here back in October with our toddler. We had three starters - tempura prawns, duck pancakes and crispy wonton. Then we had a Vietnamese curry (no sauce, but tasty and not spicy) and a green curry, which was hotter than expected....

Lovely food really good flavoursome, good menu, all staff were really welcoming and friendly. We had a lovely meal thank you.

The service was amazing. The staff were so welcoming and our waiter (Louis) was so friendly, warm and knowledgeable! The vegan menu is one of the best I’ve seen and the food was absolutely amazing! Every mouthful was so fresh and tasty. I didn’t want...

Had a takeaway from this restaurant last night. The food was ok, reasonably tasty, but horrifically overpriced. I was pretty astonished when I arrived home and discovered how small the portions of food were for the inflated prices charged. I thought it was pricey when...

Previous reviews of this restaurant led us to this venue and we weren't disappointed, excellent service by friendly staff, lots of veggie and vegan options on the menu and the food was fantastic, well worth a visit!

Stayed for 3 nights with my sister whilst visiting our dad. Fantastic location, very clean and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Well stocked bar and ate in the restaurant one evening and had a lovely meal. Wouldn't hesitate in returning in the...

Good but not great. Tons of vegan options however they were all faux meat/fish styles which only suits certain types of vegans. The restaurant didn't have much ambience however the staff were all very friendly. Top tip: Thursday is 20% all vegan options when dining...

Having read the reviews I had high expectations. Supposedly a family run business with home made sweet and sour source the food arrived, this review is about my meal, my wife’s was ok. I’m always dubious when I see English staff. On with the review...

This was our first visit to Hoi An but it certainly won't be the last! We were amazed by the wonderful quality of the dishes, which were really first rate. The menu is extensive and also includes a great range of vegan options. We had...

Had a takeaway delivered from here this evening. Amazing, the Vietnamese curry was a highlight. Thank you

My parter and I had the most delightful meal here. We had originally had a takeaway from Hoi An back in July on holiday and it was so good we went twice. So we knew we had to come again on this trip! The service...

We visited Hoi An for the first time this evening while on holiday and it was fab. There was SO much choice for vegetarians and vegans and the food was amazing. I've only been veggie for a few months so still miss meat sometimes, but...

Delicious food, friendly, helpful staff, very accommodating for vegans and also provide a children selection all though that is not on the menu the waiter could tell us what was available. Thoroughly enjoyed our food and evening.

I was aware of Hoi An Restaurant having been a Bodmin resident for years, but never heard anyone talk about it or recommend it. Attended as part of a work group dinner, wasn't sure what to expect. Mind. Blown. Absolutely outstanding! Excellent customer service. Welcoming...

When we looked at the menu it was a bit odd, Thai/Chinese and English all in ones but we wanted Chinese so decided to give it a try. Unlike many Chinese restaurants we’ve been to in the past, the menu was set for each person...

My wife thought the curry was too runny, but mine was superb, I think she just wasn’t hungry and decided to use it as an excuse. The starter was excellent and the service was superb.

Nice and quite atmosphere Good food Quick service Very very friendly service Out 7 nights we have dined here for two nights and one night takeaway

Imaginative and varied oriental dishes, beautifully cooked and sensibly priced. Charming and attentive service. Very relaxed ambiance and altogether a most enjoyable evening.

We stayed at the WESTBERRY hotel (HOI An is part of the hotel). We had sweet and sour chicken….best we’ve had. Vietnamese curry for my good lady second night, not so good, but maybe just our tastes…..over all a nice place to eat in Bodmin....

Great Asian food and really nice, welcoming staff. We eat there twice in a 4 night stay nearby. Really good value for money, and classy with it. Dress up, it's worth it.

Recommended by someone we were unsure but menu looked interesting so we took a chance. So pleased we did!! Fresh original menu, tasty dishes, a real cut above the standard Asian restaurant……. I would definitely give this a try!! Super friendly service and also great...

Excellent restaurant. Great ambiance, Excellent Food. Excellent Service. Cannot fault it. Good value for your money. Would recommend to anyone wanting Thai to European food.

We’ve just had a delicious meal from the extensive vegan menu. We had a warm welcome and a very helpful young waiter, the restaurant was very comfortable and relaxed and we would definitely return if back in the area

We had a delicious take away meal ( COVID rules not allowing eating inside yet). Friendly staff and excellent tasty food - would recommend whilst staying near Bodmin.

Such a lovely restaurant with Friendly staff and amazing food! Cater for all ages and tastes! Kids happy too

Really enjoyed the 7 course Valentines meal . Lots of food every dish delicious Delivery was good and the meal came with instructions if you had to warm the food Thank you everyone at the westbury

Wow! The most delicious 7 course take away meal ever. Every mouthful of every course truly scrumptious. So much food, I’ve just had the jasmine tea smoked chicken with black rice risotto & the Baileys panacotta with coffee & walnut crumbs for my lunch. Just...

Just had a wonderful vegan 7 course valentines meal delivered to our home, well done excellent food, presentation and delivery thank you

We had a takeaway for a special occasion and the staff were so helpful and kind. We ordered a variety of vegan and meat dishes and it was all delicious. Some of the best meat substitutes I have ever tried, the vegan chicken satay starter...

As we were on holiday about 5 miles away we'd bookmarked this as an option for when we would be back at our accommodation late. It was our good fortune that it's also open every evening because there's little choice in the area on a...

Amazing food at this understated restaurant. Choose from Thai ,Vietnamese and Chinese. Favourite was chicken satay and Hoi An Char Sui pork . Great choice of vegan dishes too.

Where shall we go? This restaurant was a great choice .. Service was warm ,friendly and professional All 6 of us chose different dishes and they were all fantastic. We had a great evening. Thank you to all the team who. made this such a...

This restaurant was highly recommended to us by a local. We were down in Bodmin for the bank holiday weekend break. The staff were very welcoming on arrival and were warm and attentive throughout. We were extremely impressed by how their Covid procedures were instigated....

We were incredibly surprised to find such an accomodating vegan range at this restaurant in Bodmin. Meat eaters and vegans were equally fond of the vegan dishes. And without a shadow of a doubt, our visit was made all the better by the friendly and...

We had not tried Hoi An before and thought we'd give it a go. We were not disappointed and will use it again. Amazing food so fresh and tasty. Staff were happy and attentive and the whole place had a very positive feeling. Thanks guys...

Had a wonderful meal at Hội An, the food was delicious - chicken satay, deep fried calamari, crispy duck pancakes for starters and chicken penang, Sea Bass with Tempura Prawns and Bream. The flavours were amazing, and the portions generous. The atmosphere was relaxed and...

Living in Bodmin, The Westberry is very local but far outshines any other restaurant in the area. Our last visit was on an ‘eat out to help out’ night, which made it very popular indeed so we had to wait a few minutes before we...

I’ve been to Hoi An many times and it is always stunning! The food is authentically cooked and service is absolutely top notch! The staff can never do too much to help you and they genuinely care about your experience. Special thanks to Amelia and...

Great local, yet hidden gem! We decided to give it a try due to the gov’t eat out scheme. I’m so pleased we did! We had two kids (5&9 yrs) and there were choices to make them happy. We tried a variety of dishes (green...

Waited for 15 mins for our booked table to be told they weren’t ready even though 5 mins prior a different member of staff had told us they were cleaning our table! Another group of people had been waiting 45 mins without anyone coming to...

Great variety of food on the menu and the green Thai chicken curry was amazing!Food was hot, tasted great and service was quick with helpful and friendly service by the waitress would eat here again!

Fantastic Thai food delivered to the door. Great menu with a wide choice to suit all tastes including vegan and vegetarian. The food was fabulous and cooked to a high standard the Thai green curry in particular superb. The delivery was on time and the...

We always enjoy the food at the Westberry. The staff are lovely too. So pleased about the takeaway service they started this Friday. Thai Takeaway in Bodmin - Fantastic news for Bodmin !! Let’s hope it lives on post COVID-19 lockdown!

We had a lovely Thai meal and fantastic hospitality. Definitely a hidden gem in Bodmin. Amazing panang curry.....good wine and extremely accommodating. We will be visiting again soon.

We'd booked a table for 8pm, as we were going to the cinema first. We arrived just after, as it was a longer than expected film. The staff were all incredibly friendly and we were sat with menus drunk and prawn crackers quite quickly. Our...

The best vegetable Thai Green curry I have ever had.. Thank you!! We definitely would have loved to try more dishes on the menu however we only stayed one night at the hotel.

We both had different curries which were excellent, amongst the best I have ever had. The portions were generous, no room for more! The service was both friendly and professional. Would definitely go back for more. Highly recommended.

Great staff and a very diverse Asian menu, only issue I had was the Pho was not available but despite this I had the Chinese Char Siu pork and this was lovely with a great big portion size and tasted lovely, will definitely be returning...

Great authentic Vietnamese food served by friendly and attentive staff . the spring rolls were great and the mail , char Sui was just brilliant . Be prepared for a large meal the servings are big but worth it . There is a good variety...

Nice relaxed feel to the restaurant, although the four 2 seater tables that had been pushed together for our family party of 8 left gaps between and wasn't ideal. Service was quite good and attentive, especially from the Vietnamese owner who brought a small birthday...

The staff were excellent, the service was excellent, and the food was out of this world, I will go there again and again.

Looking for Chinese or Thai in Bodmin we found Vietnamese, and were well pleased with the result. We were made very welcome and had a very tasty south-east Asian meal. The surroundings were very comfortable and parking behind the Westberry easy.

We ate as a family here last December. I promised to write a review but you know how Christmas is - time just ran away. But I've kept my promise because credit where credit's due. OK, so the decor doesn't scream Vietnamese. We're sitting in...

My firms xmas do last night I treated the staff to a fine repaste (Twas my wife) she does my company VAT returns😂... anyway we hit the Westbury Hoi An. Gotta say very good.... Westbury was pleasantly comfortable but allow time. We went in at...

33 of us from St Tudy went for a Christmas celebration meal.The food was first class all dishes were hot and very well presented. The service was second to none, we had a great evening with the good food followed by the entertainment. This place...

Visited here for the first time last night and we were blown away! Fabulous food,fabulous staff and spotlessly clean! What more could you ask for. A1 HOI AN we will visit again when in Bodmin.

You can rely on Hoi An for an excellent meal to share with special friends. One of our best friends came to visit and we tonight had a great dinner from the team at Hoi An. Attentive service and the food is devine. Char Sui...

Coming from Vancouver BC this restaurant is truly a gem. The food is deliciously authentic & beautifully presented. Staff were pleasant & warm. They serve western food as well. Usually a restaurant with mix race dishes ends up rather disappointing but they seem to stay...

Stumbled across this place whilst in Bodmin. Fantastic menu, Hubby and I shared the Vietnamese sharing platter. Then I chose the seabass and prawn with noodles and Hubby had Vietnamese beef curry. Food was out of this world, the flavours and colours took me back...

As guests of the hotel we ate there twice. The first time i didn't enjoyed my stir & fry pork, but the second night I've ordered a thai curry dish which was excellent. The service was nice and attentive, and the first courses were delicious.

Decided to treat the family to a meal out. Bodmin doesn't have a huge selection of restaurants so with ouregards limited choice we picked the Westbury as we have been in the past and had always been impressed. This time it didn't disapoint either. Our...

Really amazing food me and my girlfriend ate her and it was amazing 100% coming back as we thought the food was incredible.

We have visited Hoi An a couple of times now for a relaxing meal out, and the food is faultless. Fresh to order and full of flavour. The staff are welcoming and make you feel relaxed as soon as you arrive. Usually having to travel...

Great restaurant serving Vietnamese and European food. Tried both and both were excellent. Great service and staff.

The menu and presentation style of the food on offer has been brought bang up to date.The reception we received was still welcoming and the service attentive. This is a "must go" place for a relaxed evening meal/celebration.

The menu offers Thai and Vietnamese dishes alongside more traditional pub supper choices. There are also vegetarian choices available. We chose Asian dishes which were delicious. Would definitely recommend a visit. The restaurant is part of the hotel which we wouldn't have known about if...

This restaurant has an interesting menu where East and West are tastefully combined. The service is very good and the prices quite reasonable.

We don’t visit regularly but at random three to five times a year. We telephoned quite early, about 5:30pm, to confirm the restaurant was open. In Cornwall many restaurants operate a reduced service out of season so it pays to confirm! We were met with...

Spotlessly clean,friendly & warm atmosphere, excellent value and very nice cooked breakfast. We were told that breakfast is served from 7:30 but we had to be away by 7:30 on the days we were staying for meetings etc. They were more than happy to accommodate...

excellent Thai food, lovely people looking after us with the right level of attention. only odd thing was being offered bread and butter at the beginning but I guess that was because we might not have been having oriental food! Thoroughly recommend a visit.

This was our second visit to this excellent restaurant. On both occasions the food and service was top class, between us we sampled 7 different dishes and myself and all of my companions stated that the food was one of the best we have ever...

We were recommended to go to the Steak and Thai, and are so grateful for that, as it was the best meal out we have had in a long time. The food was beautifully presented, full of lovely flavour and very well cooked. I would...

Other than the beer, we did not have any of the traditional British food on the menu. We did; however, very much enjoyed a taste of southeast Asian food in Cornwall. We had the duck and Vietnamese spring rolls for starters (the duck was so...

Visited last night with my family. Was a little confused that it was Steak & Thai food. Thought it might be weird but the food was absolutely delicious. I had the Goats Cheese starter followed by Vietnamese Beef Curry which has to be the most...
