When we arrived…it looked like to much effort to see us in to our table… took a long time between getting a first drink and ordering our starters and meals… no drinks menu.. when we asked about drinks…. We were told soft drinks and beers… we had to guess what they had ???? Slow service… but food was very good and nicely put out….. All we needed was a human and not a robot….maybe because she was doing everything on her own….. it was to much… a smile to next time would be nice too..

This restaurant is awful. I got a wrong order when I phoned to ask for a refund for my meal I was told they are not accepting a refund and even you will send the order back or not still no refund.I would spend driving there to order again and wait for 30mins to hour and back to collect it. Being a regular customer I expected a reasonable phone call and offer of refund however was met with a rude and belligerent attitude. Will not be ordering from here again, I would suggest you take this review into account before choosing this place

Three of us went to the restaurant for a meal last night and it was superb. We ate in the restaurant and had a variety of dishes - all the food was excellent. The service too was really good. Our waitress was perfect. We left feeling that we had had a really good night out. We would definitely go there again

We had take away from here and it was really disappointing. The Penang was thin watery and very oily. Like a layer of greeds on the top that wouldn’t mix in. The coconut rice had sweetcorn in. Eh? I’ve had plenty of Thai food and travelled a lot in Thailand and have never had sweetcorn in the coconut rice. Maybe something was missed in the curry’s but they were both a let down. Spring rolls were good but the satay was weird and we didn’t get satay sauce with it. They do do Thai crackers. Just needs more finesse, sorry.

We enjoyed our 1st trip to this little Thai place. The restaurant is quite small & basic, but don't let this put you off. Our starters of satay chicken, duck rolls, spare ribs & prawn toast were tasty & well presented. For mains we had Pad Thai & Red Thai curry, the dishes were fragrant & had a kick to them. Didn't have to wait too long to be served either.

So the food is amazing, we've only eaten in the restaurant once a long time ago and we enjoyed the experience, we used to get takeaways at least once a week but the portions have got smaller and more expensive so we've been eating elsewhere more and more, please make bigger takeaway portions because if you're going to charge good money then make sure people get full!

To give their service one star, after this evening is frankly being kind, fortunately for them 0 stars is not an option. We have been coming here for many years, the food is always amazing, you have to call bang on opening time or pre-order days before if you want to eat before bedtime, they are yet to move into the 21st century and get a card machine and equally their phone line has no waiting system or answer phone so it is engaged 99% of the time when you call and you have to make numerous calls just to place an order and they often get your order wrong but these are all things we had put up with because their food is consistently good and easily the best in town. However after tonights service I can say for certain I will never be returning. As I say we are frequent customers and probably order here at least once a month, our orders have been wrong many times before but we are usually home by the time we realise so we let it go because simply we cannot be bothered to go all the way back there and wait for them to rectify it. But on this occasion my husband noticed it was wrong before he left the building as I asked him to check as when I placed the order I asked the lady on the phone to repeat it back to me and she repeated it back incorrectly, so I corrected her, confirmed what it was we wanted (the description and the item number on the takeaway menu) so I suggested to my husband he check just in case. When my husband queried it the waitress was very rude and said they could not possibly have taken the order wrong I must have said it wrong. They said they would make the dish I wanted but it would be 30 minutes and they would not redo the rice to go with my curry, so I was resigned to the fact I would have cold rice with my curry and my husband came home to eat his pad thai so he did not also have cold food. When I went back to collect the corrected meal, she asked me to pay, but I explained my husband had already paid, but she said my husband had only paid for what was on the slip (which was wrong) and that because he had taken the wrong dish away (because they told him to) that I had to pay for the corrected dish. The rude waitress also started saying my husband had told her I had ordered everything he went to collect and I had just forgotten to order an item, which I knew was rubbish because firstly, he was on the phone to me at the time, so I heard what he said and secondly, because we place the same order every single time we go so my husband would know I hadn’t ordered something else. At this point the rude waitress got one of her colleagues out too and what I can only assume was her boyfriend was on a table behind me and they all joined her defence, so I was put in a horrible position of having 3 people all arguing with me, when I am 8 months pregnant and all I wanted was the dinner I ordered and paid for! I told her we had ordered from them many times and I was disappointed this was what it had come to, she continued to be very rude, so I walked out without any food as I refused to pay twice for it, so she refused to give it to me. When I got home, visibly distressed by this encounter, I explained to my husband what had happened and he called them to ask why they had lied to me about what I said and whilst she did then start to back track a little, she continued to say the problem was that I had placed the order wrong, accepting no responsibility whatsoever and at no point did they ever apologise for their mistake. My husband pointed out that usually when restaurants make a mistake they apologise and offer to resolve it, instead of which we had now paid for a rice which was sat at home cold and uneaten because they were unwilling to hand over the curry we had paid for because they had sent my husband home with the wrong item. My husband eventually said that they would be losing a loyal customer and the rude waitresses response was that they didn’t want us back! We are utterly dumbfounded, we will certainly not be returning and we have an awful lot of local friends and family who we will be telling about our experience!!

I've definitely noticed a sharp decline in food quality and customer service. The dishes seem to be bulked out with bamboo shoot slices with very little meat. A black hair in the rice was an unwelcome bonus and the rude response and attitude from the girl at the desk combined to make this a very poor quality experience. It seems others have experienced the same thing from other reviews left recently. Certainly no happy ending to this tale I'm afraid and I'll be hesitant in returning, worthy of a one star rating sadly. Shame.

We called for a takeaway and it was not easy to place our telephone order. The young person spoke perfect English, but was very stroppy and seemed reluctant to take our order. When we called to collect, there were several different businesses behind the front door and no indication where to go. I tried a few of the doors and eventually found the pick up place. The reception was no better in person, and they seemed to think they were doing us a massive favour by buying from them. The food however, was very good. All fresh and good quality and good flavour

I was being treated by my son as it was my birthday. I have eaten here before,with no problems, other than slow service between courses. My son and I placed our orders VERY CLEARLY and that were repeated back to us. The starter came, piping hit and delicious, with no problems. The main course came, my son's first, piping hot and just right. When my order came, the waitress placed my Massaman "beef" curry on the table, then brought the egg fried rice.... Er, no, I ordered Garlic fried rice. She took the rice away, after some time, arrived back with the garlic fried rice.. I then took the lid of the Massaman curry... Certainly didn't look like Beef curry to me. I asked the waitress what she had brought me... It's chicken Massaman... Er, no, I ordered the Beef Massaman. Oh, OK, I will bring. So, she took away the curry, leaving me with the rice going cold and my son eating his food alone. She eventually came back and asked if she should take back the rice to heat up. I said no, I would like the complete dish, from fresh. So, off she went again, to get me the dish I had actually ordered.. Meanwhile my son is feeling quite annoyed, so asked if the remainder of his food could be kept heated so we could eat together. I think the waitress is trying to do too much. She is running a take away and trying to run the restaurant. To get one dish wrong is a bit annoying, but to get the whole meal wrong is just negligent, especially as she repeated our orders. The food itself was super, the service appalling. Won't go there again.

We had take away dishes, one duck in red sauce (£7.60) and one massaman chicken (6.50). The flavourings were really good but the amount of meat in them was not a lot. I thought it value for money as they were well cooked but a liitle more meat would have been nice, though the vegetables in the dishes were good.

When I arrived to collect my takeaway, the girl behind the counter stated “we don’t take cheques now” The website stated ‘Debit/credit Cards are not accepted - we accept cash or cheques only’ - her attitude was very arrogant and offensive to the point that I’ve decided I will never visit the place again. I have been visiting this restaurant from the day they started and was very impressed at the start and was keen to help to promote them with their business by telling everyone how good it was and frequented it once a week.However, my takeaway was well below par - The Thai green curry I had was full of water and oil and the ‘special’ King prawn fried rice look very stale and stodgy and had a stale taste (it was thrown out). On my leaving I said good night to her and she couldn’t be bothered to answer.

Absolutely bloody amazing. Literally the best Thai takeaway I've ever had, and I've tried a good number of Thai restaurants over alot of the UK and Europe. Reasonably priced, very friendly staff, delicious food. Make sure you get your order in early on a Friday or Saturday evening though, as it's very popular and you could end up waiting an hour from you initial phone call. Worth it though, (hint hint, the ribs are to die for).

I have had take-aways in the past but never had a sit down meal at this unusual place, Barbers shop in the day, restaurant at night It was late and the restaurant side was closed but they opened up specially for the 3 of us. Food took quite a long time, a good sign as everything seemed to have been created from scratch. Portions so generous that we had to task for doggy bags. I always test an unfamiliar Thai restaurant with that old staple Phad Thai. Theirs was one of the best that I've had. My companions both Vegans chose from the large vegetarian menu. Again, their dishes were so full of flavours that they needed the rice to calm their taste buds. Three of us had 2 courses plus drinks for about £15 each, what's not to like? Highly recommended.

We have consistently had good meals here and last nights takeaway was no exception. We ordered our food and was told it was a 40 min wait, which some may say is quite a long time, but my gosh is it worth it .The food here is exceptional and the people are lovely.

Thai Kitchen is primarily a takeaway establishment and I have praised it before on that. This review is for their small intimate restaurant which my wife and I enjoyed very much. You don't have to book, but it is strongly advisable especially on weekends, not that it gets busy, but because the takeaway side does, and the staff are extremely busy serving that side. So, if you book, you are at least taken care of in terms of certain priority over takeaway customers. If you don't book, you will just have to accept that you will be served as and when they get a gap between other customers. If you are in a hurry however, don't eat in the restaurant as the service is quite slow - but to me very civilised as we, in this country, seem to get into a restaurant with the sole aim of getting out as soon as possible instead of enjoying the experience. As per my previous review, the food here is excellent - right up there among some of the best Thai restaurants I have been to in different parts of the world.Do yourself a favour and book the restaurant for a really enjoyable evening meal.

Best food out of Thailand and actually some dishes better than the same I tried in Thailand. Always fresh, always best quality ingredients and always a favourite with my whole family. Shaftesbury's best kept secret!

If you haven't discovered it yet then you must. This is the best Thai you will find by a long way, and we've been to quite a few. Take away and small restaurant of about 5 tables so call to book. They also don't take cards so it's cash only.

Fuimos a la cocina tailandesa con algunos amigos la semana pasada y fue la primera vez que hemos estado allí durante unos 18 meses. Por desgracia en la noche visitamos sólo puedo decir que me decepcionó es ciertamente no tan buena como la última vez.

Mi primera vez en un restaurante tailandés y me quedé impresionado. Me encantó la comida, el entrante y plato principal! No podría haber pedido un mejor servicio o comida! El personal era muy amable y cuidó de nosotros. Gracias, sin duda volveremos:):):).

Don't judge a book by its cover! Building looks obscure, but the food and service is beyond what you pay for. Hugely recommended!

The girl is lovely so this is not for her service at all. My partner is Thai and we eat Thai food a lot. Obviously as he is Thai we love authentic Thai food and we both always speak Thai when we go out. We went out tonight with his family and we are so disappointed :( The food was not good at all. Panang curry is my favourite food in the world and normally it will be thick and creamy. It was the consistency of water (No exaggeration at all) and see through!! There was also oil floating on the top and it didn't even have the panang flavour at all! Both my partner and I said we could hardly believe it was what we ordered. The other food was similarly disappointing and I said afterwards it's the first time I've ever had bad Thai food and he agreed :( I reiterate though the girl serving us was very sweet

Un pequeño pero agradable restaurante con servicio de comida casera casa tailandesa. Excelente menú con una sensación real de Tailandia.

We have been told about Thai Kitchen by friends but this was our first visit and we were delighted by what we found. The food was excellent and the young woman who served our table was helpful and informative about the menu options. We all loved it and will definitely be back. The meal plus wine was very reasonably priced too.

We came based on the great reviews but encountered an extremely rude wait staff person. I have been using trip advisor for years and have not written many reviews, but this experience was particularly upsetting and inexcusable. She had an attitude from the start, and when I simply asked whether the spice level could be adjusted because one of us had a slightly sour stomach, she responded with an unnecessarily offensive attitude. When asked a clarifying question about another menu item, her attitude continued with a short, curt response. I almost walked out, which would have been a first in my 57 years. We stayed, the food was good, but the meal tainted. We will definitely not be back.

I have been to quite a few Thai restaurants in different countries and this one rates right up there! The food is excellent and service efficient. Prices are very competitive. I haven't eaten in their small intimate restaurant, but I will be trying it one of these days - watch this space!

An unhelpful, stroppy teenager reluctantly took my telephone order, repeatedly "huffing" as if I was being a nuisance, saying they are always very busy and I would have to wait 1.1/2 hours. When I collected my order, the restaurant was completely empty! The service was unfriendly and the food was average, so I wont be returning.

We have been using Thai Kitchen since they opened a few years ago. The food has always been excellent & the service is very good. We generally have a take away but sometimes eat in the restaurant and have never had anything less than amazing food

The food is great and the staff very friendly and helpful.I go to Thailand quite a lot and this is just as good as it is over there. Because it is a family run business and they work there as well cant praise it enough

Service and food are tasty enough but the price is way too high to make it my local bakery. It's more expensive than what you would pay in a city centre

I give 1 star because you can't give less, rude, unprofessional staff, my order on just eat never arrived because apparently they couldn't find the correct path. The moment I ask to cancel the order they invite me to go to the restaurant and then hang up on me. I was ordering Domino's pizza because there is nothing better in Shaftsbury, even the poor place, mediocre/low quality food. Even when the person with me on the phone (who I had to contact several times to answer) finally agreed to cancel my order, he did so in a rude and rude manner. I don't recommend it even to my worst enemy
