Thai Oriental in North East Lincolnshire

A very mixed experience. The mixed sharing platter starters were disappointing and variable quality. The chicken skewers were lovely, the Thai fishcakes rubbery and the prawn toast dreadful. All main courses were excellent., including noodles and rice. The young servers were delightful. However, the owner less so. She had an unfortunate demeanor when we arrived and that never changed. With wine and a tip, it was £150 which is rather top end pricing, particularly given the disinterested nature of the owner.

I ordered a take out for 7.30 Did not arrive by then - still not arrived by 7,55 Rang several times Phones unanswered Finally got through - person was very rude (young girl) We are a very busy restaurant - order will be another 20 mins Good was fine and warm but not hot when it arrived Attitude of staff spoiled the experience Sorry

We ordered the meal for 2. It was a mixed starter which I suspect was bought as it was very thick batter and the sesame toast was really rubbish. The fish cake wasn't bad. next we had a red curry which was delicious, beef in oyster sauce which wasn't bad but the noodle dish was awful, seemed overcooked with slimy noodles.

Went here for food and it was lovely. I had the fishcakes to start and the Pad See Eiw for main. However i think a better bet would've been a stir fry dish and rice and it was a bit oily and despite asking for the prawn one (as I'm a pescetarian) it had clearly been cooked with other meat as there were bits in my dish.

Second visit here, excellent service, delicious home cooked food, reasonable prices. Would highly recommend. This is a small restaurant but it maintains a relaxing atmosphere.

Highly recommend eating here - we had beef pad Thai and chicken red curry both which work amazing. Never had such tender beef before - it’s usually a risk but not here! Service was quick and friendly. The young man on front of house worked so hard to keep everyone served and the tables clean and tidy. Great work ethic! We visited on holiday but just wish we lived closer so we could visit more often!

Absolutely lovely food. We came with our two young daughters who also loved the food, all freshly cooked to order. Tasted really clean and not fatty or oily, all our dishes were completely finished. Just a shame we don’t live closer, it’s a fantastic little place.

Me and my partner travelled Thailand for a month and when we got back to the U.K we wanted something to remember our time there, Thai Oriental didn’t disappoint, it tasted exactly like it did when we was there, made us cry because we are back in Grimsby. The portion sizes are really good.

This restaurant is a little gem; the starters were delicious, the jungle curry had the perfect amount of heat, the green Thai curry was flavorful, and the banana fritters served for dessert were amazing. Wonderful service, and many thanks for a lovely and memorable evening

Ordered several takeouts from this restaurant and everyone has been outstanding. The food is so fresh and extremely tasty. Having visited Thailand the food here is very authentic. The food has always arrived on time. I made a mistake when ordering one time and they rectified it straight away. Customer service was amazing and very helpful. James who took the call sorted it all out for me. Delivery drivers alway very friendly and polite. I cannot fault this restaurant, always had the best experiences.

Great food would recommend to anyone visiting. Quick service and friendly owners! Recommend the Beef Massaman or mixed meat Panag!

Amazing food, the lady who served us was fab! She knew exactly whose dish was whose, so attentive making sure we had drinks and the food was right. Food was so tasty! Best Thai I’ve ever had. Table of 9 for my husbands birthday and everyone said it was brilliant! We will definitely be returning! Thank you.

From the very first step in to the restaurant I was greeted with a cheerful waiter taking me to my seat. The food was exceptional and really gave me a authentic thai experience. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy some thai food.

First time trying Thai food and I really enjoyed it; great taste and good service, making it a good birthday night out. Staff were really hard working and the overall atmosphere of the restaurant was really good.

To receive a phone call stating that they didn’t want to send any food to us because they didn’t like that I let them know the last time we used them that waiting three hours for food after being told repeatedly that it was on its way was unacceptable. There are two other MUCH nicer Thai places to eat in town so if they are open go to them not these cowboys! Learn to take criticism or your restaurant will have a for sale sign in the window if you carry on treating PAYING customers like that!

Fantastic Thai food, delivered quickly. We had the green chicken curry and a yellow curry, and were really impressed. Spices / heat were not toned down, zingy, authentic and really good. Would highly recommend!

Really nice food, a real hidden gem in a great area of cleethorpes. Friendly and accommodating staff, really helpful when helping to choose a meal from the menu. Starters and main cooked perfectly and we weren’t waiting long for our food. Clean and tidy restaurant, will be coming again! Highly recommend anyone coming and giving it a try!

Service was excellent and the food was even better. Very reasonably priced as well. Always call in when we’re in cleethorpes

Dropped on this by accident and was well pleased. Authentic Thai cuisine professionally run, good size portions with fresh ingredients. Was spoilt with the selection on the menu. Only small moan was the price of the bottle beer but wouldn't put us off revisiting.

First time trying their take away service. Good choice of Thai food, very tasty curries but Thai fish cakes a little disappointingly overcooked and the chilli sauce an unnatural colour. Otherwise, experience enjoyable, quick and friendly.

Lovely little restaurant. Think the last reviewer must have an axe to grind. The service was fab apart from having difficulty hearing the server as she was mask wearing. The food was fresh and gorgeous, we had set menu A and it was excellent, so much food we couldn’t finish it all. Will definitely visit again!

Waited over 40 minutes for starter (we were the only table in at this point) then after one and half hours still no main course. Gave up waiting for food as almost 10pm so asked for bill which took another 15 minutes and left hungry. When questioned we were told that there were a lot of takeaway orders which took priority. This is very poor way to treat restaurant customers and will certainly not be returning.

First time visiting here tonight. It was lovely very clean and the food was presented and tasted amazing. Staff all very polite and welcoming they also offer take away. Will definatley go again

Absolutely love this restaurant, it’s family owned and the food is delicious. I wouldn’t go to any other Thai restaurant in the area anymore. I had the Beef Red Curry and I was watering at the mouth when I smelled it! 100% recommended

First time here. Greeted by the owner (I think) and a younger server. Shown to our clean and neatly arranged table. The napkins expertly folded into a crocus flower. Menus given.. clean and full of choices... all clearly described. 3 of us here.. so we...

Crazy good food. Pork Toast is divine. Love the green curry. Do yourself a favour and have dinner here.

Had a really lovely meal with family at this good quality Thai restaurant. There is a wide selection, including a good range of tasty curries. I can particularly recommend the Beef Massaman, which is nice and spicy - just how I like it. Quick and...

Delicious...every single dish! Please give it a try so it can flourish and remain in our little town!

This is one of Cleethorpes' hidden gems! Fab food and good service. Cannot praise sufficiently. If you haven't had Thai Oriental.....you haven't had Thai!!

While in Grimsby on our new vessel we managed to get a few runs ashore one night we chose Thai food and this place was beautiful food was extremely tasty and well made the waitress was also great as well

Went with my partner and decided on set meal for 2 £40 and bottle of wine £14.95 (shiraz).prawn crackers ,the mixed starters for 2 accompanied by sweet and sour chicken balls (beautiful) .Main course for me was mixed meat jungle curry (stunning) partner had prawn...

A small Thai restaurant with a nice atmosphere and really good service. We had a great meal, served by a lovely lady who was so friendly and helpful. Reasonable prices and a good selection of authentic Thai food - we will definitely be making a return visit.

A hidden gem in Cleethorpes. Fantastic food, excellent service and a brilliant experience. I would highly recommend.

The food was great. All things ordered where tasty! The service is quite slow 5-10mins just to get a drink however we wasn’t in any rush.

On a quick visit to see family we ended up eating here. The service was fast and very good. Good cold beer. The food was excellent and not to badly priced. I would recommend booking as we got lucky but several people after were not so lucky. They turned a few folks away. It’s a must eat in cleethorpes??

After a day out we arrived shortly after opening on a Wednesday evening

Not finding any Chinese takeaway in the area, that had that 'wow' factor, my wife and I thought to try Thai food for a change. We weren't disappointed. The items selected for our first takeaway were all freshly prepared and beautifully cooked. All the flavours were well-balanced and very tasty. What more could we ask for? And yes, we'll be back!

I visited here with 3 friends Saturday night and the food was amazing , the staff were very friendly and helpful will definitely go again

We ate here last Friday, again the food was very good and great value for money. Bee the waitress was very polite and friendly. We also used their delivery service on Wednesday and that was very prompt.

Visited again on Saturday evening Lek and Staff absolutely brilliant yet again. Food brilliant yet again. Anybody who does not rate this restaurant highly does not deserve to eat top quality Thai cuisine because by far this is the Best Thai food in Lincolnshire😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

We love Thai food and tonight we decided to have a takeaway, we ordered menu C from the banquet menu. We asked if it was possible to change the egg fried rice to coconut and pay the extra but they said that this couldn’t be done-I’m not sure why. Then when our meal came they forgot the pad Thai - absolutely rubbish. We tried to contact the restaurant but it was engaged and we couldn’t get through and really what good would it have been if they thought the pad Thai half an hour later once we’d eaten our meal.

Without doubt the Best Thai food I have eaten in this country no fancy stuff simple down to Earth proper Thai food. Service brilliant as usual. Well Done Lek and all your staff excellent.

Had a lovely meal tonight!!!Shared starter was really fresh and tasty and mains yellow curry were delicious!Friendly staff and nothing too much for them Great price. We will be back. Thank you

I often dine here and have always found the food to be of a very good standard. Very reasonably priced normally starter, main and soft drink about £15. Would recommend.

Horrendous service!!!! Old lady front of house very rude and shouted to us like a fish wife.

We stayed in Cleethorpes in mid-November and decided to go out for food rather than stick at the hotel. We're both big fans of thai food so thought we would give this place a go! It was quiet - we were the only customers eating in for the majority of the time but the service was great, the food incredibly tasty. Will definitely be going again if we're back in Cleethorpes!

We had lunch here yesterday, and it was really lovely we can highly recommend the jungle curry! We also had a chicken Phad Thai and Thai frided rice which were very flavoursome. The staff were friendly and polite.

This was a night out with some friends and we tried a variety of food which was all excellent. The lady who served us was very friendly and chatty and took time to explain different dishes and the service was first class.

Very cosy Thai restaurant with yummy scrummy menu and food and drink. Have often gone there with family members and never disappointed. Staff are friendly and very polite and accommodating. Will be going there again tomorrow with my mother and sister.

As always brilliant service and excellent food from this gem of a place. Would recommend this to anyone.

Being ordering from here for a few years and it's the best Thai I've ever had. Highly recommend the Green curry. It's exactly how I like it. Spicy, coconutty, and full of chicken.

Comida maravillosa y un gran servicio. Buena variedad de entrantes y casi demasiada variedad de platos principales. Me encantó el color amarillo, el curry tailandés y me alegro de que fui para 1 chili comida clasificado, ya que todavía era muy caliente! Excelente calidad y sabor de la comida. Servicio rápido y cortés. Buena relación calidad-precio. Altamente recomendado.

Otro increíble comida el amarillo es un curry tailandés debe probar que no te decepcionará, de hecho he trabajado mi camino a través del menú, pero este tiene que ser mi favorito. Todo el personal es muy amable y le acomodar cualquier solicitud para asegurar que su comida es de la forma que más te gusta, no sería un auténtico restaurante perder.

Estado aquí muchas veces, tres de nosotros tuvimos Selva Curry, es el mejor tailandés que hemos estado durante toda mi vida, y soy 60, jajaja 👍

Cena encantadora con la familia como uno de la familia de nuestro partido propio del restaurante. Magnífica Comida, servicio y personal. Qué delicia, muchas gracias!

Hay un pequeño restaurante muy bueno, que parece que nunca está llena. Que es un poco extraño, ya que la comida es realmente buena. Esta vez pedí: Cerveza singha Pollo sate. Selva curry, con arroz al vapor. Todo bien y muy buen gusto. Regresaré

Llamado por casualidad. Pollo satay tenía para empezar, que estaba bien, pero pequeña. Campo principal era massaman que era bueno, pero no el mejor que he tenido. El punto de precio era muy bueno.

A stunning starter (the mixed starter for two) and then four stunning meals and everyone was beautifully presented. Lovely staff and very reasonably priced made a great evening out. Will definitely be going back again.

Walked in an empty restaurant. (19.00)Ordered a Singa beer.Starter Tom kha (kai) chicken.The bowl was way to small and not easy to eat.Color was a bit "different".TASTE WAS GREAT!Not spicymain course: red curry.Taste was "different" but Good!Not spicyBefore finishing the restaurant was voor 80% full.Service was done by a young english Guy.Not that GREAT...Interieur is dated.BUT: Will come back

Visited here Thursday the food is very good we had golden prawn parcels then prawn tom yum the tom yum is the best we have ever tasted it was that good we had two takeaways deffo returning again

Growing up in Lincolnshire we went to this restaurant almost every Sunday as a family. I have so many great memories here. The food is incredibly reasonably priced and staff are so lovely. On birthdays they would give us a little key ring from Thailand. They also gave my mum the opportunity to cook in the kitchen to learn how to make some dishes. Excited to visit again soon.

Was recommended to go here what a hidden gem - the food is excellent and they will cook anything for you gluten free - would definitely return - the person who owns this restaurant is a very good hostess

This place is like an old faithful to us and we return here time and time again. Recent visit proved that food is very authentically Thai and is fresh no matter what you order. The other half ordered a chicken Penang and I ordered a chicken stir fry with chillies for myself. Both beautiful and reasonably priced. Staff are very accommodating and will advise if you wish to change the spice factor around in dishes to suit your taste. It's hard to find fault with this hidden gem - everything you could expect and more from a great Thai restaurant.

Delicious Thai food! Always very friendly. Sometimes it can lack a little atmosphere but depends what day of the week it is.

My son ordered a takeaway for 5 of us for Mother's Day. To begin with my granddaughter popped into the restaurant to pick up a menu but was told to use the one on the website which is a few years old. However we did. We ordered and this was followed up by a phone call saying we were using an old menu (groan). My son had to change the order (which was still incorrect on delivery...where was the prawns dish), and it was considerably more than we were quoted on our initial call? My son was told to collect it after half an hour, so he duly went down and had to wait a further 40 mins after this! The food was okay but everything else I don't think we will use it again....too chaotic for us

Great food from this little restaurant which delivers outstanding flavour. There are 3 Thai restaurants in Cleethorpes and this is by far the best. Excellent red curry and the pad Thai noodles are amazing. The service was friendly and the food arrived in a timely manner. Highly recommended.

I went with my husband last weekend, and was greeted with a friendly welcome. I had been to several Thai restaurants, and by far this is the best ones! I had ordered the Thai oriental mixed starter for 2, which was fantastic!! For our mains we shared a Thai green chicken curry, with jasmine rice and a beef basil leaves stir fry with fried rice! Absolutely amazing!!!

I have been going here for the past 6 years, since I moved up north from the south. This place is a little gem hidden in cleethorpes. It offers the best Thai authentic cuisine!

Love this place, always greeted with a smile been a few times now, love everything on the menu, will be back

Love this Thai, food is second to none, always perfect and definitely reasonable in price. Definitely recommend this place, we have been to Thailand and this is the closest we have got to the cuisine in the UK.

Best Thai in Cleethorpes by far. Value and quality.Really friendly. Should have larger premises as sometimes full at peak times.

That is the best Thai food I've ever tried, the taste is amazing and the service is perfect. When my friend ordered more food, the staff just reminded him that should be too much, they didn't want us to waste money and waste food. The staff is so sweet, like my grandma, so comfortable to had food here. Good memories!!!

Excellent food, service with a massive smile, the decor is what it is, don't be put off by this, go give it a try, you won't be disappointed !!!!

Been here before but this will sadly be last time. I dont usually check bill too much, but it seemed a bit dear this time so i looked through it. When ordering asked for 2 Tom yum soups, ( they were about £4.50 each), the waitress said chicken or prawn and we said, 'oh a bit of each please'. there was no salt or pik nam pla ( the spicy chilli stuff in a little jar ) on the table so i asked for some.When i checked the bill the soups were £7 each and the salt and pik nam pla was £1.50, ( I have always found them free in most places lol! ) I thought this wrong and queried it but was told that was their price. In a larger group these charges would probably go unnoticed and just be paid.So be aware.2 soups, 2 mains, 2 beers, 2 soft drinks = £42

Mainly have takeaways as the Restaurant isn't really to our liking, but food is good unlike the other Thai Restaurants in the area but still not on par with the City Thai Restaurants.

Went early on a Saturday night after we could not get into other restaurants. OMG what a fantastic meal. There was only one other couple at first in the restaurant but we were later joined by others. It's not the largest of restaurants but the food really was good. I had the soup and a rice noodle dish. My colleague at the spare ribs and a stir fry. A real gem.

Went quite early on a Friday evening. Can't fault food, pretty tasty.However, we were only couple in for over an hour. Decor is a bit basic, and i guess the place does better with take away. The one member of staff was extremely pleasant.

Love Thai food especially the soups - Thai Oriental is a great place to eat. My wife and I loved it. We have been several times

The food was good but just the 2 of us for 1 1/2 hour with 1 staff felt a bit weird. The place is a bit too dark, OK for romance, but it gives an impression of being too late for dinner at 7 pm

I have been several times with my mum, sisters and their husband and we love it here. I strongly recommended the mixed starter as there is something for everyone. The mains are delicious and just like the food I tasted while on holiday in Cape Panwa. The service is lovely and the ladies are very polite. I would strongly recommended if you like Thai food at great prices.

We know this restaurant well and have been using it for 11 years. However, this evening's visit will not encourage us to return soon.The mixed starters were mixed quality - the pork on toast was definitely burnt. The main course green curry was well below the standard we are used to, although the Penang curry was good. The rice was plate served and, although the Pad Thai was given free of charge, it lacked the expected spice. There was only Singha beer available and no Chang so I had to drink water instead. Service was good. Total bill was only £36 for two of us but I have a feeling that the proprietor was not there doing the cooking - she is good and would not have sent through food as poor as this.

It caters for everyone, if you font like oriental food, there's English food as we'll. there is lots of dish choices and you can eat as much as you want for a very reasonable price

Lovely, flavorsome, substantial food. Well presented dishes and generous sized portions. A meal for two with two starters, two mains, a side of rice and to soft drinks came to less than £30. Friendly staff too.

Great food & service, will certainly be returning. It is well located on Cleethorpes sea front and good for business, friends, couples and family

I came here a few months back.Really enjoyed the food. The starter was excellent and the mains was very generous.I would highly recommend this place: especially as the decor is nicely presented as well.

Yet again the best thai in cleethorpes. The meat is always cooked fresh and service great. Excellent value. The decor is looking fab too

So far used it 3 times. First time was a restaurant experience and two others a take away. Meals are nice and quite authentic. Good value for money. Thai Green Chicken Curry (with coconut rice) is exceptional! Thai Yellow curry is more spicy than its description states but very good nonetheless. Service is always friendly, fast and polite. Restaurant is very small so best bet is to either make a booking or come on a weekday. Will gladly recommend

We ate here in a party of 4 adults and 4 children. There was something for everyone - bearing in mind that the children were aged from 1 year to 11 years. The food was lovely, with plenty of choice. We would definitely recommend a visit.

We visited this restaurant at a lunchtime and had the set menu.The price too reasonable so we didn't know what to expect.When the food came out it was brilliant.The food was fresh and authentic.I would highly recommend Thai Oriental.

I had a lovely time at thai oriental, extremely quick service, and excellent meals... My mother has always been a regular customer and recommended the resturant to me.I would recommended to anyone :)

The food in this place is just fantastic. It's not the fanciest place in Cleethorpes but if you want to eat some nice food I can't recommend this place enough.

We ordered a meal for four recently and were advised it would be delivered within 45 minutes. Two phone calls ( being told each time it was 5 minutes away ) and almost 2 hours later the meal arrived. On the last phone call we was advised there would be a discount for how late the meal was, the discount turned out to be the £1 delivery charge! We could have gone out for a meal to a restaurant and returned home in the time this took but the lies and the 'discount' will ensure we do not order from them again.

Sorry had high hopes having read reviews but we have visited Thailand 6 years on the run and this is more bog standard Chinese .pad thai stodgy gluey and Tom young gai soup to mild mixed sorter tasted like something from Iceland frozen Filo prawns and bit chicken on a stik with. Small lic toast .the waitress was brill or king very hard and price is very reasonable but for taste n flavour it's no we're near authentic . I have said for years you can't get thai food in the uk yet again proves to be the case the lack o that veg like morning glory an proper thai noodles makes it just bland at best sorry I really wanted to enjoy and wa totally disappointed no fish or crab on menu so it a no from me won't return .
