Taste of Thai in East Devon

Excellent food and very friendly service.

Great meal, and a very good choice of Thai food, can't wait to go back 😋

Delicious foods, friendly staff ❤️

Sensational meal, superb service and a wonderful atmosphere. My wife and I had a wonderful evening and we cannot recommend it enough.

Fantastic dinner here tonight. We went as a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 children. The waiter was very friendly and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend trying this restaurant if you are in the area.

Great food and great service. We had the mixed shared starter which came out perfectly cooked and tasted beautiful with the individual dipping sauces. Penang curry and jasmine rice and pad Thai noodles were amazing. Also the cheapest wine by the glass we have had in Seaton. 😊👍 Very recommended.

My partner and I are locals to the area and always liked the look of the restaurant as we walked past. We'd lived out in Asia for a decade and love Thai food so, when my partner's parents came to visit, we were excited to take them and try it! HOWEVER, our experience was frustrating and tragic. - After an hour and a half, the only thing we had received was Thai crackers. We had optimistically paid for 2 hours of parking and so had to go and move the cars before we had eaten anything. - My partner's dad ordered a gluten-free pad Thai but they accidentally brought him a green curry, which is fine, these things happen. When we told them about it, they were confrontational and seemed to want to argue with us about it. In the end they, somehow, brought out another Pad Thai within a few minutes?? - We then reminded them that we were still waiting for a Jasmine rice that we had ordered. The guy (maybe owner?) responded to the reminder by making a strange, passive aggressive remark about ordering rice with a pad Thai. We had to justify a simple order of rice... - We had also ordered a tofu cashew dish but, were brought a sweet and sour one, with no cashews in sight. By this point we were so fed up that we just ate what we were given. - Service wise, there were no check ins and it seemed like they were trying to avoid us after messing up our order. This was especially frustrating as we just wanted to pay and get out but, were instead sat there for another 20 minutes. Shocking experience, really disappointed. If you're after a Thai in the area, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere unfortunately.

We were so disappointed by this restaurant. A friend had enjoyed a meal here a couple of years ago, so we were looking forward to a similar experience when we visited with family who live locally. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. The staff seemed very disorganised all evening. There were only 2 tables of 4 eating when we arrived at 6.30pm, but it took them 30 mins to take our order and after 90 mins we were still waiting for food. There was no explanation given, but it meant that two of our party had to go and move our cars by this time as we'd expected to have eaten & be out within 2 hours. The older man working front of house bizarrely asked if everything was ok when we eventually managed to catch his eye, even though he could see we had nothing on the table! He seemed unconcerned that we hadn't got any food, but said he'd chase it up - however, he did no such thing, but just went to the bar counter and then avoided us from that point. Very strange behaviour. When the food eventually arrived, 2 out of the 4 dishes were wrong and rice was missing. One dish was corrected (we didn't mention the other one when we realised, as it seemed pointless by then), but the same man rudely questioned why my husband would order rice with his pad thai. The younger guy who took our order did apologise for the wrong/missing dishes and we understand that mistakes happen, but overall, the food was mediocre. My sticky rice was just one glutinous lump that I struggled to prise apart. Fortunately floating it in the curry did the trick, but it was well overcooked by the time I received it. It wasn't just us as other diners were waiting similar times for food and we heard the next table also flag up issues with their meal. (They also told us they wouldn't be returning). Serving staff didn't do any check-backs with our table, but I was past caring by the time we left - it was even difficult trying to get their attention to pay. That took another 20 mins. A few people came in to collect takeaway meals throughout the evening so I don't know whether preparation of their meals had taken priority over those dining in, but there are definitely some issues here that need to be addressed. Two and a half hours for just one course is ridiculous! This is the first time that I have had a meal and not left a tip. We won't be returning.

Food good but service appalling. Has to decide if it's a restaurant or takeaway. Can't do both with so few staff and limited capacity.

Food was very good but would have liked a few more side dishes or smaller plates otherwise all good very helpful and friendly staff

We got a takeaway from Taste of Thai for the first time last night (on holiday in Seaton). Staff very welcoming and helpful. Food was delicious, portions just the right size for us. Definitely will return before we go home! Thank you

Fabulous gem of a restaurant tucked at the top of Fore Street' a minute's walk from the sea front. Lovely food, friendly welcome and reasonable prices. Definitely recommend a visit.

Smart and cosy welcoming Thai restaurant at the top of Fore Street a minute or two from the beach. Fabulous authentic food, good value and very friendly service.

Best Thai food we have ever had. Really friendly staff. We had several dishes tonight and we can't fault any of them. Highly recommended.

Very disappointed with taste of Thai had the mixed plater for 18£ deep fried to death look like something from Aldi which you could buy for a fiver Sorry will not going back

Superb food, great service and a nice restaurant make for a really good meal out. The choice of both drinks and food is perfectly judged - not excessive and not restrictive - and the host was attentive and considerate. Being very partial to Thai food the experience here was absolutely spot on.

Small but cosy restaurant. Fresh delicious food with vegetarian options. Friendly staff and service. A must when visiting seaton!

Food and staff fantastic A small but vey friendly restaurant The food was delicious Jack our waiter made our evening special

Absolutely lovely food. A very small restaurant in Seaton, but does take a way too. Great food, good service, good atmosphere. Will definitely return.

My wife enjoyed her prawn coconut curry but my chicken green curry was disappointing with a tiny amount of chicken and too much veg. Tasted ok but too runny. Waiter very pleasant.

Lovely little place, catered well for a big party. Excellent food and service, will be definitely be going back. 👌

Lovely evening, but too hot in both restaurant and menu choice!! Thanks for good service though and I will know to choose a less spicy meal next time

Beautiful food that tasted amazing and the waiter was so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely return and recommend

Fantastic little place, really enjoyed the food and the service was brilliant.

Cosy restaurant that totally exceeded our expectations. Family run with food cooked to order, so tasty and authentic! Started with chicken skewers/satay followed by Coconut Chicken Curry and Pork Red Curry with mango/sticky rice and rum to finish. Delicious! Wish had taken photos but wouldn't do it justice.

Food was outstanding!! Very happy with the service and food definitely will be returning next time I visit seaton.

Great little restaurant with delicious food, friendly atmosphere and plenty of gluten free choices. Highly recommended!

Great little place and will definitely be visiting again. If you like Thai food you will enjoy here. The mixed platter starter is a popular dish and all our mains were really tasty.

Fantastic chicken Tom yum tonight!!, best ever with 3 chillies, will have again soon. Thankyou Taste of Thai.

Wandering around the lovely Seaton and found myself here. Mid-week and mid-winter so it's a quiet night, yet received the warmest welcome from Steve and his team. Anyone coming this way should make the time to stop and enjoy - thank you for a wonderful meal (I had the Penang which was superb) and the good company!

A lovely restaurant with super friendly staff! The Chef is obviously a Thai food expert and we would certainly recommend coming here and trying an array of foods. I popped in with a group of 6 and the staff had no problems serving a big group or splitting the bill. As we were a group of great friends and family, we ordered different dishes and shared! My personal favourite was the Pad Thai and everyone loved the unique twist on Prawn crackers. We hope to come back very soon.

Lovely meal, food excellent...owner and staff are super friendly...definitely visiting again.

Had the red curry which was watery with no flavor and packed with a lot of veg with not much chicken. It was labelled with the same spice level as the Pad Thai but it was really spicy. My partner enjoyed the chicken stir fry but did not know it was going to be minced chicken. Additionally, the sticky rice pudding was literally sticky rice with sweetness or flavor. Overpriced and I would not recommend it. Very bland for Thai cuisine. The only positive was the staff were very nice.

We had a takeaway so can’t comment on service or atmosphere. General review would be overpriced and underwhelming. Portions were small (esp mixed platter starter for over £16). The curries contained lots of fresh veg which was nice but were very watery and lacked much further flavour beyond coconut milk. The Pad Thai looked good however. The food wasn’t quite ready at the agreed collection time - not a problem, we only waited about 10mins, but when we got it home (12min journey) meals weren’t hot and needed microwaving. Not horrendous but overall disappointing and I wouldn’t return.

Lovely restaurant with brilliant food. We were visiting from London, saw other reviews and decided to give it a go. We had the Pad Thai which was one of the tastiest I've ever had, reigniting my love for Thai food. If you aren't sure where to go, definitely give this restaurant a try.. it was brilliant and highly recommended!!

Very disappointed tried to ordered a takeaway via website phone number. We spoke to a man who took our order and said it would be ready for 7.30pm. On arrival of pick up staff were not aware of our order. We are new to the area and would be interested in feedback if other clients have experienced this problem as we are reluctant to use them again.

Fabulous food, friendly service and very helpful people. Did I say fabulous food? No frills, small restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. I nearly forgot to mention the incredible food 😊

We have been meaning to eat at this restaurant for months, whenever we decided last minute they always seem to be fully booked. We thankfully were able to book a table and WOW! It was totally worth the wait, the food was incredible. My partner is Gluten free but was still able to choose nearly the entire menu as it’s all cooked fresh. The service was impeccable too. 5 *

Spectacular Thai food absolutely mouth watering taste fresh and delicious

Stopped in here for lunch on a weekend away with my fiance. The food was absolutely amazing !! Lots of vegan options to. Service was great the staff were friendly . A beautifully clean and charming place. If we visit Seaton again we shall definitely return. Would highly recommend 👌

Fantastic food, great staff. The whole evening was a pleasure 😊

Lovely place, one of my favourite places to eat in seaton. A must try if you're in the area.

Fabulous food and always great service. Genuine Thai food cooked fresh to order. The restaurant is small & bijou so make sure you book & don’t miss out on this gem of a restaurant.

Great addition to Seaton. I love the Pad Thai. The chicken thighs with papaya salad can be a bit spicy but that’s how I like it. They can do things not on the menu just ask. Hubby was very pleased with his larb moo.

We live in Seaton and our son came to stay with us last week....as it was his birthday on the Friday we booked Taste of Thai as we have always said we must try it....what a good choice our son is vegetarian and very fussy about his food we all really enjoyed the food the staff were lovely very friendly lovely family run restaurant great choices will definitely be booking again.

Great staff and delicious food!

Such a lovely place for dinner, my dad and I enjoyed it a lot. The food was fresh and tasty and the service was great. Would 100% recommend and will be back if we are ever in Seaton again!

My Wife and I loved the whole experience so much that we went back the following night to eat there again!!! Food was amazing the owner took time to get to know us made us feel very welcome.We are looking to go back there next year again to eat.I highly recommend to anyone

Sadly booked to go last night got a table literally at the top of the stairs which meant I would have to move every-time someone wanted to go to the toilet or if a slid my chair back I would end up at the bottom of the stairs didn’t stay but was looking forward to eating there

Nice little restaurant offering very good food at very fair prices. It's small and gets busy, so book.

Service was adequate, although a little odd putting cutlery in a pile on the table for us to sort and bottled water with our wine/meal was a small plastic multipack one and only one glass! Pork Penang was nice, but Green Curry wasn't. Overall, we were slightly disappointed.

Food was excellent, authentic. Owners were extremely friendly and very helpful. 10/10 would recommend.

Really nice fresh home cooked food. Highly recommend

Fantastic food cannot recommend enough, friendly service

Great food and team are very welcoming. Will definitely be back 😊

Beutifull food and very welcoming So very tasty Colin an Jan

Bland food with no flavour or taste. Very disappointing. Sevice is fine but kitchen needs to get a grip

Taste of thai was a great experience we had a warm welcome from Steve & the waitress who explained everything we asked about .the food was lovely & service was good I will definitely return. Thank you Steve & kee for an enjoyable night in a lovely place . C u soon Phil.

Had an amazing evening, Food and Service was out standing, such a warm and friendly environment ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Inappropriately named restaurant. No taste of Thai. Chicken Penang tasteless & insipid. Stir fried chicken minced without mention on menu.

Went for a meal here this evening. Had the mixed platter for starter it was amazing and would highly recommend the dipping sauces were to die for. Mains were just as good never knew I could like tofu. And to top off the amazing food was to brilliant service. Will definitely be back

Best meal for ages! I had the Chicken satay, and I can honestly say it was the best I have ever had. Then Chicken Teryaki, which was fantastic, with tasty crispy skin and sticky sauce which was sublime, served with Jasmine rice. I also had some soy/mushroom sauce with it (fantastic also). Finished off with Baboo ice cream. Service was great, ambiance was also good. tried my partners green curry which was also sublime.(I've run out of superlatives) Take your mates and have a great meal here. Martin & Liz

A lovely little restaurant serving authentic Thai food. Absolutely delicious meals, and the staff are super friendly. Highly recommended!

As a result of another restaurant closing early we decided to visit the Taste of Thai and we were so glad that we did We had a shared platter to start and then despite it not being on the menu (please add it), my partner asked and was served a vegetarian drunken noodles and I had a green Thai curry. It was delicious and couldn't fault it. The service was attentive and very friendly and after paying our bill was offered a complimentary drink. At this point we were the only ones left in the restaurant and had a most engaging chat with the owner and the young girl who was serving. This made for a very pleasant end to the evening, and if we are back in Seaton, will definitely dine there again

Wonderful welcome on arrival, lovely service and really great food!

The food was excellent. Good portions, flavours were perfectly balanced. Staff were friendly and the lady who served us offered advice about the various dishes. Will definitely go back again.

Went for birthday meal and had the pork Penang which was absolutely delicious the service was superb and they even went above and beyond singing happy birthday and putting a candle in my dessert. I can’t wait to go back again soon and can’t recommend taste of Thai highly enough to do it credit. Thank you for a fabulous experience.

Absolutely blown away by how awesome the food was. Went in yesterday (23/02/2023) with my friend on her birthday and received 5* treatment all the way through... They even brought a candle out and sang happy birthday to her, which was lovely! Owner came and spoke to us (as it was a little quiet) a lovely man - very welcoming and friendly. Looking for an excuse to go again very soon! Keith and Becky

Absolutely amazing! We have just had the most fantastic Thai meal, everything SO fresh and beautifully cooked. The staff are so helpful, friendly and welcoming. We will definitely return, we've found a gem, so highly recommend you try it. Thank you all for a great birthday .. candles too. We can't wait to return.

Steve and family , gave us an amazing dining experience tonight. I was able to personally thank the chef , Steves wife and visit the kitchen. Best food outside our visits to Thailand. We will be back.

Amazing food Best in area Best Thai food for miles

Lovely food so fresh and great value for money welcomed by friendly staff. It’s my first time here but it won’t be my last a great addition to Seaton town

Very poor service and overpriced

Great food and friendly staff, brilliant night out, will be visiting again soon.

Exceptionally good food and lovely service. Highly recommended.

Employees are nice and helpful over the phone. Top tier customer service. Food absolutely awesome loved the dumplings. And good bang for ya buck!

Lovely lunchtime menu. Thoroughly recommend this place. Food was excellent

Had a fabulous Christmas meal at the taste of Thai. We were a large group of 19 and they were so accommodating, the food was fantastic, as was the service and the atmosphere! Highly recommend!

Best takeaway I’ve had in a long time! So tasty and great front of house

Absolutely wonderful. Authentic Thai food, friendly staff. I will definitely be returning.

Lovely little restaurant 😊 Great meal and friendly service 👌 The Thai meal was very taste. There is a limited menu but a well stocked bar and wine fridge.

Really great food, would recommend the red curry.

Really enjoyed the fish cakes. So much flavour. Never had a chang beer before but want some for home.

Had a fantastic takeaway from here, food was amazing and fantastic price too. Great that you can say how hot you would like it and they cater to taste. Very tasty, and fantastic service from staff and great value for money. Definitely recommend if you are in Seaton also great location for eating in as close to seafront.

Highly recommend best Thai I have ever had and will be back. Thank you

Went for Dinner last night, Service was fantastic and the food tasted amazing. Highly Recommend

Amazing authentic Thai food! I had the pad Thai and didn’t disappoint one bit. Great service and would definitely recommend! Will 100% be back

Take out. pad Thai was greasy. The coconut curry left my wife in agony after she ate the whole birds eye chili that was in it.
