Thai Garden in Torbay

Fantastic! Group of 6 had various meal choices tonight, all of which were excellent. I had the jungle curry, which was cheeky, but full of flavour. Really good. Wine was not overly priced, and was very good.

We have eaten in and also had takeaway from here, it’s by far, the best Thai food in Paignton, absolutely delicious, I highly recommend it, if you’re holidaying here, and would like to eat in the lovely restaurant, it maybe wise to book ahead to avoid disappointment. Thank you Siam Thai garden. 😁

Superb range of dishes, served so efficiently with smiles and care - and making sure we were in time for the 7.30 pm start at the nearby theatre. A second time that this restaurant has been a perfect choice in Paignton, combining with a theatre visit.

We called in before the theatre snd had not booked. The waitress was very welcoming despite being on her own. The food arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious. Would definitely eat there again when in the area and would book next time.

My wifeband I visited here on random Thursday 20th July after playing a game of mini golf. What a great find! Yhe atmosphetevwas lively, the staff were amazing and friendly, and the food was really tasty! My wifevis dairy, egg, and gluten free, but this was not an issue as food prepared freshly on the premises. A big shout out to Anoushka who served us on the night! You really enhanced our visit andvwe enjoyed meeting you. Thank you to all of the staff for a brilliant night!

A traditional Thai restaurant. The Decor is quaintly Thai, clean and the hostess was smiling and welcoming. The Food was delicious and authentically Thai and the price reasonable. Lots of take always collected too!

Small friendly restaurant. We called at a quiet time, but nonetheless the service was friendly and very prompt. The big bonus was the quality and flavour of the set meals which were shared between the four of us. Quite simply, the food was superb. An amazing mix of well cooked and superbly flavoured food.

Excellent food and a great menu choice, nicely located close to the Palace Theatre. Handy for shows.

Just to say the best Thai green and pad Thai prawn we have ever had. Great service and friendly. Very reasonable pricing. Sharing platter starter was delicious too. Honestly a real hidden gem. Many thanks. Highly recommend.

My husband and I had a lovely evening at this restaurant we didn’t prebook a table but the staff were very accommodating especially for a Saturday night. We had crispy prawns and satay chicken for starter both were fantastic. Then massaman lamb curry and a duck curry with coconut rice everything was so tasty. We finished our meal with deep fried ice cream got to say I didn’t expect it to be as amazing as it was but it really was. I would highly recommend this restaurant the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly the food amazing we will definitely be returning.

Fabulous restaurant wonderful the food was amazing and extremely clean and lovely presented go you will love it… We had a fun time the staff are really happy…. Everything about this resultant is first class and more thsnk you fur bring you……

We haven’t been here for a long time, but wish we’d returned sooner. We had 2 lovely starters followed by 4 main courses. The food was amazing as was the service. Highly recommended 10/10

Found this restaurant by chance online. Was able to get a table straight away. Easy walking distance from Paighton town centre. Very welcoming on arrival. Lovely restaurant extremely clean and tables socially distanced. We decided on the set meal for 2 which they also had no problem in us changing dishes. The food was totally outstanding. Great value for money and the staff we really helpful. Definitely will be making a visit back here next time I’m in the area.

Found this charming Thai Restaurant by accident,, what a GEM of a place, Nice Quality Tasty Thai Food, at very reasonable prices, Will be back for sure, Faultless,

Lovely people lovely food and lovely evening!.. plenty of on street parking which is handy!.. all of our dishes were tasty especially the fried squid.. we will be back.. thank you

Visited restaurant 3 years ago. Booked on a visit on 15th September and was told it had been taken over. We were not disappointed. Excellent food very generous portions. Definitely worth a visit.

Great service great food, great food and cater for dietary requirements. Been there twice, in the last five days. We will probably go there again, before we leave.

Came here on 12 September with my wife. The place is now called Siam Garden. We were both craving good Thai food and after reading the reviews decided to come here. We’ve been to Thailand and have tried this food in many different locations. Portions and prices are decent. THE FOOD WAS SPOT ON!! everthing was as we expected, Highly recommended!!

Spring rolls were burnt and papaya salad burnt our tongues, it was so spicy hot. Really wasn’t worth the money even on Eat Out to Help Out offer.

Great authentic food with a decent kick. Worried about ordering the ribs in case they were dry, but they had a lovely jus with them. Also enjoyed the pork dumplings, chicken toast, crispy prawns and prawn soup to start. All very good. For mains we had a range of stir fried dishes (no curries) and a steamed sea bass. Again, all dishes were excellent. The service was extremely good. Very attentive and we didn’t have to wait for anything. The wine was decent and there was a nice buzz in the restaurant. No negatives at all. Great meal.

We had ribs to start and tasted as if they where just backed in the oven..Very bland and no sauce. We had duck for main and it was try and over done..Wine was dry expensive too. I don't think we will be going back in the near future..Wish I got a carton take-a_way from Morrison's or Sainsbury's .

We managed to get a booking on a very busy night and were told we only had x amount of time before leaving the table. Fair enough - they were great to squeeze us in. When we got to the restaurant we didn't feel too rushed which was nice. Had a delicious starter to share - squid. Could have eaten a couple more plates of it. Both our mains were delicious and didn't feel heavy. We opted for 1 rice to share as we thought that would be enough, but I would recommend one per person. Was very nice to eat light, more healthy food for a change after a few days of chips and stodgy stuff. Left the restaurant very happy.

Usually come here very often, food is great and lovely and relax atmosphere but tonight the service was terrible, the waiter keeps getting the orders to the wrong tables even thought they were not busy and when we asked for the dessert menu and some teas after finished our meals we were told we wouldn't have time as our time was booked for 8pm and it was 6.40!!!! Couldn't believe how rude, we obviously left and won't return again.

We had a fantastic meal here whilst visiting Paignton last week. The staff were very attentive and made us feel safe as all were wearing visors. The mixed starter platter was delicious and the prawn Penang was the best I’ve ever eaten. Definitely worth a visit

I am Thai myself and was born in Thailand so I know what good Thai food is. I would recommend this as the best Thai restaurant in Torbay. Delicious food and I would consider it to be one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to in this country considering food.

Visited in August and had an unforgettable meal. The modest title, Duck Curry, doesn't do it justice. This was a taste experience par excellance with waves of flavour mixed in to the coconut milk and red curry base. Creamy and lush, I savoured every mouthful.My partner had the Pla Rad Prig - two halves of Sea Bass laced with a sweet and sour dresssing that tantalised and teased the taste buds. Diced peppers, spring onion and pineapple enhanced the sweet chilli sauce. Suprisingly, the flavour of the bass still came through this rich accompaniment that has a nice little sting in its tail.Decor? Atmosphere? Service? I really don't care when the food is this good.

Wonderful food and excellent presentation and service. Ranks amongst the best Thai food I've eaten - in London and Bangkok! Lovely and surprising to have it here, so discretely sitting in Devon in the quiet backstreets of Paignton.

We love eating a good Thai and the food in the Thai Garden is the best Thai food we have had. We were so happy with it that in our one week stay in Torquay we have now walked there twice to eat. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff are very nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend.

We visited on 15th July for an evening meal. We thought it was one of the best Thai meals we’ve had. The lady serving us was lovely and friendly and the food was delicious, portion size was more than enough and very tasty. Decent price too. We will go back when we visit Torbay again.

Renamed Siam garden. Rated 4 starts because of the food it self not for overall experience.Lovely food even tho the portions have definitely been reduced the food itself is lovely and can’t be faulted, But every time we go in the portions seem to be smaller and smaller.If your going to a restaurant for a nice atmosphere then I don’t recommend this place. It is very quite, you feel like you have to whisper and the place is always very cold so need to wear a coat. If the place was warmed up to make you feel relaxed and the music was a little louder I think it would make all the difference to the atmosphere. When your having a meal you want to relax and enjoy not rush because you are freezing. However I can’t fault the food just wish the portions was a little bigger for the price

My husband and I visited here one lunch time we both had starters main course and a glass of wine each £26!! The food was absolutely delicious we will definitely be going back

Fish salad. New Zealand mussels. Why not local? Prawns, squid. The salas was a cop out. Bagged chopped cabbage and salad leaves. Nothing really fresh and zingy, no herb flavour, a bit flat. The other dishes the party had were OK, a bit too sweet, and lacking again in that zingy flavour you expect of Thai food.Compare it to Suphras in Plymouth, that is the yardstick, and it is no where near as good.

It has been open for two weeks under new management. What a delight. The food was absolutely delicious and at the end of the meal the chef came out and to our absolute delight we found that it was the chef from Jasmines in Winner Street (now closed). We will definitely be back.. our friends were equally delighted to find Moi had taken over this newly refurbished restaurant. A real gem.

Picked this restaurant as it was near the theatre. Food was bland and uninteresting. Asked for vegetarian meal then brought prawn crackers - asked if actually had prawns in and told no, just 'powder'. When I queried if the 'powder' had animal products in it, the basked of crackers was grabbed back and waitress said she would take it away. Very abrupt attitude. Would not recommend or go back there again.

I love Thai and I can honestly say this was the best Thai ever. Lovely decorated restaurant and very cosy and comfy seating booth. We were well looked after

We visited the Thai Garden for the second time last night and it was even better than our first visit two years ago. The fish cakes for starters were excellent and our two mains, a curry dish and the chef's special fish dish, were a little bit different to the normal dishes you would get in a Thai restaurant. The house wine was lovely and complimented the meal. The service was good and good vfm.

As we are locals i thought we would give this place a try for dinner as been to most other Thai places in the bay, turned out our food was very good, we both had the Penang curry and it was most excellent, the décor may be a little dark and out dated perhaps but the food was good, at a decent price and the service friendly. would come here again. Kop Khun Kap!

Nice decor and clean but service poor. When food came out both my friends and my Pad Thai was warm in the middle and cold on the outside, they took it away and returned it having been warmed in microwave, same problem again really, warmer in the middle not so on the outside and definitely not piping hot.When our bill came it had 10 bottles of lager on when we only had 6. Our friends arrived a little later than us, we already had a drink, when the waiter finally took our order, he never brought our drinks order out, the food arrived, so we asked the female waitress to bring out our drinks, which she did, this was no problem. When we got the bill and told them we had not receive 4 of the drinks on the bill, they were adamant we had and despite us explaining what had happened, continued to imply we were lying. They did in the end take off the drinks despite telling us we definitely had them. Like a Thai Fawlty towers, will not be returning.

This is a truly wonderful restaurant, with marvellous, authentic, Thai food. the staff are excellent. Forget the review by PuttyDodd - we were there when they walked out. It was entirely their own fault. They booked for 10, but didn't say they wanted to sit at 1 long table, so were sat at 2 tables next to other. There was no way the table could be reorganised and the long table was already in use. The staff apologised, when it wasn't their fault, and the party left. More fools them!

Long story short but messed up booking tables for party of 10Not responsive to requests to shuffle or join tables. Pretty arrogant and argumentative. My party of 9 walked out this evening and we went to Dragon Pearl and had a great meal. £330 which would have been spent there if they just joined 2 tables together. Will not return ever as treated so badly.

We were away for my Birthday weekend and we booked as we had been before .never again ...we arrived greeted by a young man and sat at our table .given stail prawn crackers which we didnt eat .ordered our food .when it arrived the only thing Hot was the rice .when asked if everything was ok i said the food was not hot .he asked if we wanted it warmed up .we thought that would not be appropriate. So he offered 10% off thebill we said thats not what it was about ....very poor food wont reccomend it and wont be going back

Very good food that tastes authentic. The service was also friendly and welcoming. I will certainly visit again in the future.

Fantastic food, lovely staff. I think taking your own alcohol helps keeping the price down. We had 4 starter's,4 mains with extra noodles and rice.We also had 2 coffee's and it came to£85 between us. Definitely would recommend and return thanks.

Very nice food served in a friendly atmosphere, definitely recommend. Very near to walk to if you if you are staying in Paignton on the sea front.

This was a return visit for me and to say it was disappointing is an understatement. The food was poor - grey beef, rice that came out of the container in a solid lump and refused to be broken down!!!!! The service was s l o w..... and aggresive.

Went for two course lunch with friends for a pre birthday meal. Food is lovely and very well presented. Menu has a brilliant choice and is very good value for money. Calamari starter is to die for! Will definitely visit again.

We visited the Thai Garden for a birthday celebration and we had the set meal which was delicious and authentic. The service was outstanding.

Went for the lunch offer 2 courses for £9.50. Chicken Satay for starter followed by Singapore noodles, food was amazing with lovely flavours. Service was excellent. Really good value for money.

We decided to eat here on our last night in Paignton after reading some good reviews. The staff were welcoming and nice. We decided to have the set menu for 2 as liked the look of the dishes which consisted of an array of small starters,a choice of soups and mains - calamari,beef and duck dishes. Sadly the mains were lacking,the beef very chewy,calamari reasonable but not sure what part of the duck was in the dish but was inedible. We did not complain as too late for them to do anything about it. Would never return. For some reason unable to click on the rating below but would rate the service 4 stars and food 3 and value 2

Food was authentic Thai and the service was so friendly! Stayed in Paignton for three nights and kept coming back to Thai Garden nearly every day. Great lunch deal, we were very happy with all the meals we ordered and owner went beyond to satisfy my pregnancy cravings with a Thai Iced tea which isn't on the menu.

We went here for dinner and had a wonderful fragrant Thai meal with a starter plate of goodies to start us off. Our mains were crispy duck with pancakes and plum sauce, always a winner for flavour. We also had a chicken dish and a pork dish which made a very satisfactory meal.

Hi went on holiday decor is very Thai and the restaurant is smaller than it looks. It was a very quiet evening and only one other table had dinners, the food was hot and the flavours were nice along with the presentation and portion size was good. Prices are consistent with nearby restaurants so worth a go enjoy.

We decided to have dinner here this evening because we noticed it had more choice compared the the Local Thai restaurant. It was fairly quiet, and the decor was furnished in keeping with the Thai culture. The waiting staff were courteous and polite, with one waitress taking time to chat about my oriental heritage. The menu was indeed quite extensive, with lots of complicated names of dishes alongside the English translation. On this basis, I used this to make my vegan choices - you can't go wrong with vegetable/tofu stir-fry. The rice choices were limited though, with garlic fried rice and vegetable fried rice being the only sides available as side portions. My partner had some kind of duck dish in chilli gentle sauce with the garlic rice, whilst I had the mixed veg/tofu stir fry with veg fried rice. For our starters, I had Tom Yam Hed (mushroom soup broth), whilst my partner had chicken satay. When the food arrived within 15 minutes I noticed the veg rice had bits of fried egg within it. Luckily I was able to switch rices, and my partner loved it. When a member of staff asked if everything was ok I mentioned the egg in the fried rice, and said I can't have egg but my partner offered to have the veg fried rice. The food was very filling and tasted delicious. Apart from that, it was good value for money.

Went for a meal while on holiday in Paignton. Restaurant is in a lovely location overlooking gardens and near the theatre. Had one of the set meals and all the dishes were really good Friendly staff and excellent service, definitely recommend

Visited here whilst in Paignton for our Anniversary. We were really looking forward to the meal as the reviews were good but we left feeling disappointed.

haven't been for a while as we had a bad experience when it changed hands, but tonight's meal was one of the best Thai meals I've had in a long time. full of flavour and really well cooked, great service. Great to have a quality local Thai restaurant again and plan to make regular visits

Our family having been coming to the Thai Garden for many years and never been disappointed until now. We loved the variety of the set menu’s but now there is only 2 and none of us liked the choices on the these 2. What we had was lovely and can’t fault the food or service. We just don’t have the excitement to go back now as our favourite 2 set menus are no longer available and sadly we are going to check out some other local Thai restaurants.

Went in for a quick lunch time meal, starters were nice and the mains very tasty, the service was very friendly and the surroundings very nice and clean including the toilets.

Tried the lunch special oh what a waste of money. Very little choice and what we had was like a cafe meal. Fish cakes No Fish. Sate chicken straight from Iceland. Mains were tasteless and all plonked on one plate. Not gonna try the evening meal too much of a gamble. £20 wasted is enough.

I love thai food and decided to have an evening out with my wife. Finding it can be tricky if you miss the turning but when you get there you will not be disappointed. The food is delicious, service is wonderful and its a romantic night out. Nothing was ever too much trouble for the staff. only marked it down 1 point due to location. Everything else was just perfect. Brilliant

As usual, the food is amazing. So much taste... Thai garden is one of my favourite Thai restaurants in the world. No. 20 soup is a taste sensation. And every main I've tried has been awesome. My favourite is tofu penang with pad Thai and coconut rice Mmmm. I can not recommend this place enough, the staff, the food and the decor is the best.

Excellent food and service. Relaxing atmosphere friendly staff a great place eat with the family or on your own. Looking forward to my next visit.

Lovely meal. Great service. Friendly but serious. Great advice when ordering. Lovely soup, platter and mains. Everyone enjoyed their food. I have vegetarian massaman and I loved that I could taste the vegetables through the string sauce. Fresh vegetables make such a difference.

My wife and I and my parents as well enjoyed a high quality dinner tonight, where the food was just exquisite. We had the whole range of varied dishes and the sauces and food quality was of the highest order. My only suggestion is for heated trays please to keep things hot. It really is needed. Nevertheless, highly recommended and the staff very friendly. Top marks from us!

Amazing. There were 19 of us and everybody said what lovely food, friendly staff great atmosphere. Will definitely be going again

My husband and I came here for a set menu and the food was very tasty. The set menu is huge, not for a small appetite! It was delicious and they let us take some of the leftovers with us. The staff are friendly and we had a nice meal here.

Back to the Thai Garden once again, this time for an early evening meal.

Me and three colleagues visited Thai Garden for a meal and were very impressed. Delicious food and decent portion sizes. Lots of choice on the menu and the staff were friendly and attentive. We have been a couple of times recently and it’s always consistently good - would definitely recommend.

Went as pre Theatre meal before attending show nearby a mixture of ages 11-76 in our party of 7. We only had just over an hour to eat and everyone loved the food all beautifully presented. Menu items were explained fully for those not used to Thai cuisine. We all tried something new, all delicious. The decor is very elegant. We highly recommend and this was our third visit. In as many years.

We have just had our Christmas Day meal, very good, lovely staff, made our day, good value for money,

Fantastic food & drink at reasonable prices. The staff made us feel welcomed and were very attentive. We will definitely be coming back.

I visited with a group of old friends for a meal after a reunion and it was a pleasant surprise. Good service and very decent fresh food. I enjoy Thai and I have visited some excellent restaurants and this ranks amongst some of the better ones. I'd be happy to visit again if I should be in the area.

Good menu with English translation. Courteous staff, exotic Oriental surroundings, nicely flavoured food that was very good value. Well recommended. You can park outside, too.

We were pleased with the ambience of the place as soon as we walked in. The menu was interesting, not just the usual Thai dishes. The food was delicious, and the service was good. Overall very enjoyable.

I've eaten at many Thai restaurants and after a bit they become quite samey but this restaurant had some interesting and delicious dishes. I had prawns in a peanut sauce with cashew nuts, there were only 4 prawns but they were the largest I've ever seen, I struggled to finish it, all of our party thoroughly enjoyed their meals and the staff were so welcoming.

From the moment you are greeted at the door and welcomed into the restaurant you are surrounded by beautiful, exotic, decor and music setting the scene for a real treat.

On a traditional English seaside holiday, we fancied something more exotic than pub grub or fish n chips. Thai Garden is an 8-10 minute walk from the seafront and on the edge of the town centre, but well worth the detour. The room has the traditional gaudy but fun decor, and the welcome and service was as lovely as you would expect in a Thai restaurant ( can you have positive racism? Every Thai I have ever met has been friendly and kind...) The food is the classic Thai repertoire, cooked very well- plenty of oomph and spice without burning heat, meat tender and vegetables crisp. We are seasoned Thai food fans, but this was the first time we had brought our children to a Thai restaurant and they loved it too. The bill was very reasonable and I would make a point of returning here next time we're in the area.

We actually came here because another Thai restaurant we were recommended was fully booked and we still wanted Thai. The menu is extensive, but I had the Thai red curry and sticky rice, my partner had the seafood curry, pad Thai, and our friend had the tofu and veg. My partner literally had his mind blown by the seafood curry, he said it was absolutely incredible. I tasted the sauce being anti-fish and it was seriously good. Mine was excellent as well. It was incredibly tasty.Apparently there's "English hot, Bankok hot and country hot." We had Bankok hot and probably couldn't have gone further to country hot. In fairness we were heroes at Bankok hot because most wouldn't be able to handle it. The service was excellent and the staff were just so lovely. The main lady in charge was just a delight. So warm and friendly.We can't wait to come here again. I won't be bothering to try the other one, I just don't think it can be better! This place is really traditional and authentic.

I suggested this would be a good place for 2 friends and me to have meal. I have had one of the set lunches on several occasions. This time we selected from the main menu which had a good selection to suit all tastesIt is beautifully decorated inside with a lovely atmosphere and courteous and helpful staff.Everything we had was delicious, hot (temperature not spicy) and well presented. The rice was light and fluffy (how do they did this?). We all really enjoyed our meal.The best compliment we can give is to say that Anita and Nicky enjoyed their first meal so much they will definitely eat there again and will recommend the restaurant.

Brilliant evening. New owner was very pleasant and welcomed us to the restaurant. Waitress and waiter were very attentive and quick. Food was delicious and great value for money. Especially loved the spring rolls, really good portion size and so tasty! Thank you!

This restaurant is an absolute gem.I have been there several times before - as a couple dining; with a couple of friends and this time with a party of 11. Here is my review for last night's party of 11:-We had pre-booked and were greeted with the usual wonderful smiling staff and taken to our tables (2 tables of 6) We felt 1 table was a little squashed and the staff immediately offered to move us to an 'L' shape configuration nearer the window which suited everyone better. The staff were quickly gave us menus again and checked we were all OK (we were)The menu is extensive so you might want to look online first but we were not hurried with our orders and drinks were taken promptly. The staff also accommodated our needs for individual bills.I had the spring rolls and sea bass - delicious and piping hot.I try to find something constructive to write in the review for the restaurant to learn from but on this occasion this is only a glowing report. Anyone who loves Thai food will love this restaurant.

What a lovely experience I and my friends had at this lovely Thai Restaurant. Not only are you welcomed immediately upon entering, but the decor is so beautiful. Nothing was too much trouble and the food was just wonderful. We were really looked after well. Since my visit I have had a couple of take-aways...so nice to know that I can eat the same quality of food at home as I can sat down in the Restaurant. I'm a new found FAN.

Where else can you get an authentic Thai 2 course lunch for only 5.95??? Fantastic value, superb service and most importantly amazing food. All served in great time to fit in with a working lunch break. Fab surroundings. Highly recommended

Amazing food very reasonable they couldn't do enough for us,will definitely b going bk again very soon

We visited here on a Saturday night. We've been once before and enjoyed it then. We arrived about 7 o clock and there was only one other table there with guests but tables were booked and soon the restaurant started to get full.I had the sea bass which was lovely with a generous amount of fish. My husband had one of the beef curries which was tasty too.The service was good and friendly. We will be back!

Spent a lovely evening here for my wife's birthday really friendly people great food I would personally recommend the mussaman curry (tastes exactly the same as I remember it in Thailand) although all the food I've had here before has been fantastic.Definitely recommend !

Second time we've been, did lunch and now dinner. Beautiful little restaurant with nice relaxing atmosphere. Service is great and friendly and food is delicious with really good flavours :)

Our second visit. Awesome food, with lovely friendly service and great atmosphere. Can thoroughly recommend Reasonably priced. Will definitely go back again

We enjoyed enormously our pre theatre dinner with amazing friendly service and attention to detail. We ordered a variety of dishes, which contained wonderful flavours throughout. I highly recommend the Thai Garden for its uniquely intimate surroundings with kind, friendly faces serving the most delicious food.

When you have time and you enjoy the best authentic tastes of Thailand, this is the place to go. A superb full menu, charming décor, and Min and his staff give great service with the occasional floor show. Thoroughly recommended.

Situated in a quiet city centre side street with free on-street parking after 6pm, the Thai Garden is a cosy little restaurant with unfailingly friendly and courteous staff. The menu includes the usual favourites (mixed starters, red and green curries, noodles and stir fries), all freshly prepared and packed with flavour. If you've never tried Thai cuisine before, it's a bit like Chinese food, but richer and with stronger, yet more subtle flavours. One advantage of Thai restaurants is that they don't expect you to struggle with chopsticks!The wine list in the Thai Garden is modest and only the house white and red are available by the glass, so you may prefer to stick to Thai Singha beer, which makes a pleasant change from continental lagers.

Relatives down for the weekend again and although we tried to promote other Thai restaurants in the area the Thai Garden in Paignton was the only option!So despite our best efforts we had to eat through a range of succulent starters, five different rice dishes from a choice of nine, various noodle dishes and share main courses from Satay to Jungle seasoned pork.Proper jasmine tea in pots of course and beer for some bought our total to £140.00 for seven persons; with extras of some dishes. Not an unreasonable cost per head and service friendly and competent as always.

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I have been to, great food and service, if you like veggies options really good.

We were visiting Paignton for the weekend and decided we were in the mood for Thai food. The Thai Garden was on the outskirts of the town and is not too big, although there are plenty of tables, so we decided to book ahead. We were glad we did as the restaurant filled up very quickly after 7.30pm. We decided to have a set meal, and the dishes were all very tasty. The duck in red curry was a bit too spicy for our taste, but everything else was delicious. The service was friendly and prompt. If you like Thai food this restaurant is worth a visit.

My husband took me to The Thai Garden for my birthday treat and a treat it was. The food was so tasty, I've had Thai before but this was by far the best I've tasted. A wide variety of dishes and if you didn't know what to order the staff were keen to help you make a choice based on what you liked. We will be going back!!

What a wonderful evening we had at the Thai Gardens last night. We were a party of 15 and we were made very welcome. We had already made our choices from the extensive menu in advance and when we arrived table plans were drawn up and the correct meals were delivered to each person by name, a really efficient service. The food was excellent and we all decided the coconut rice was to die for! This little restaurant in Palace Avenue is a jewel amount Torbay restaurants and I would highly recommend a visit.

I visited this restaurant with a large group of ladies for a birthday party. It was my first experience of Thai food and I was very happy with it. Thai Gardens have a very extensive and inexpensive menu which our party took full use of. Without exception the food was well presented by attentive staff and most enjoyable. On a personal level I shall certainly make a return visit.

Had a veg platter for starters and really tasty. Main courses equally tasty and including three beers and two Yasmine teas bill was very reasonable given the quality of food. Definitely recommended!!!'

Excellent food, with fast and very friendly service. Very Thai decor adds to the ambience. All round fab restaurant.

One of the best Thai in town, apart from Thai jasmine. Good for large groups fresh food, great atmosphere :) would recommend it
