Thai on the River in Kensington and Chelsea

You would have thought that these type of 'restaurants' had disappeared with time, with people's better knowledge of 'exotic' cuisines and with an increasingly number of places - particularly in London - offering the real thing. Fitou's actually reminds those unfortunate people that decide to dine at its premises of those nasty, formica-laden, quick and dirty joints that were kind of popular in the UK about 20 years ago. 'Exotic' food to the British public was about ketchup on spaghetti or super hot tikka masalas, in short - together with kebabs - all that nasty food that was served to people leaving the pub rather inebriated and searching for something not to taste or enjoy, but food to numb their state of drunkenness. Apart from the nonchalant, 'who gives a ****' attitude of the 'staff', upon which people have commented here before, the food was disastrous. Unbelievable large amounts of oyster and soy sauce obliterating any taste. Ingredients on your plate indistinguishable from one other. Most concerning were all the mucky, charred bits obviously coming from the bottom of a pretty dirty wok, all to be seen on the plate served to you. God knows last time those woks were properly lined, let alone cleaned. Surely, looking at the customers there, Fitou's still gets away with it thanks to an audience that doesn't ask for any finesse, perhaps in life as well as when it comes to food. But this is properly ghastly food, an insult to Thai's cooking tradition, a sad reminder of a culture that thrives by disguising 'exotic' food and serving it as something else. Awful.

Being going to the Bangkok for 45 years, went on Wednesday whilst in London to find it had closed its doors, tears were shed.

Food was great and Peachy our waitress was really nice ✨🙏

Delicious authentic Thai foods!! We had authentic papaya salad with fresh prawn (Som Tum Goong Sod and the famous Thai BBQ pork it was awesome and thank you for made me feel like I’m in Thailand, we also had little Thai ice cream at the end and the service is fantastic. They also had the open karaoke which included Thai and western. Definitely will go back again. Good job guys !

Was OK value for money but food was not great. Starters were over fried so that there was little taste other than crispy oil. Soup was a broth that was overly spiced that you could not taste anything other than chilis and then the mains tasted the same and overly salty. was ok for a quick pop in for something convenient near to the hotel, and as long as you do not have high expectations is only mediocre
