Thai Sakon in Kirklees

Fabulous food, we had a family meal for my brothers 70th birthday, we had to pre order as there were 14 of us, everything went great very well organised everyone thought it was fabulous thank you

Loved the traditional theme, but the servers weren't friendly. Also overpriced.

My first time trying Thai food and I was very happy with my meal. Beautiful food, gorgeous venue, lovely wait staff. Our two servers were nice and polite and knew the menu very well. 10/10!!! I will definitely return for more!

The food was excellent and the service was very good , will go again

Went for the early bird menu at £17.95 that comes with a starter and main, also includes boiled rice. Firstly they gave us some prawn crackers, which was nice. I ordered the tom yam guy and chicken pad grapao. Thought the Tom yam gai looks more like the tom kaa guy but it was still tasty. The mains on the other hand, it felt quite dry despite the good portion size. I could barely scoop any sauces out from the padgrapao, so it was quite difficult to eat. We have actually paid more (10% of the bill), but the staff didn’t look that happy either and just did the usual thanks (obviously not expecting them to be ecstatic but at least put on a smile?). It’s certainly different to what I’ve experienced before especially reading the recent review about service not include in the bill.

Excellent food and attentive service

Visited here for my Wife's birthday as her choice and we had a lovely time, the service and the food was brilliant. We were a bit awkward with ordering but the lady taking the order was very patient and understanding and even complimented me on my Thai pronunciation!!. I had a starter and main from the fantastic early bird menu and my Wife's dish was on the A la Carte. The food was absolutely delicious, every dish was bursting with flavour, dishes were a generous portion too and the staff were very friendly and attentive. The Restaurant itself is well set out with nice decor and a warm, welcoming feel to it. The prices compared to other town centre venues are very good value for money, this place is becoming one of our favourite eateries and we will definitely return again soon.

Staff and food were great. Will certainly go again.

Excellent food and service! Highly recommended 👌

Travelled from sheffield on recommendation could not fault at all the taste blue my mind absolutely beautiful planning our next trip back you will not be disappointed

We opted for the waiters recommendation of mixed starter, chicken and beef curry with rice. Unfortunately we spotted the recommendations of the day was spotted later ‘ hidden in the corner’ Felt we over paid especially for a Monday…food was tasty

Always amazing food and friendly service

One of the best examples of Thai cuisine ever. I cannot recommend this place enough

The food was beautiful!!! We had a set menu for 2 and everything was amazing! Especially the Tiger tears (steak!) and penang curry. We don't live anywhere near Huddersfield but we'll be back!

Lovely food, can't fault it. Every dish was served piping hot and was all delicious. Our only issue was a small sentence on the receipt which says 'service not included'. In the UK, service IS included as all staff should be paid the UK minimum-wage. By putting 'service not included', you're trying to guilt people into leaving tips. Tips in this country are not expected as they do not form part of staff wages.

My son took me here for a mother's day treat. Food was lovely. Staff were really lovely & looked after us well.

Consistently phenomenal food. Amazing, accommodating and friendly staff. I think this might just be the best food in Huddersfield!! The salmon special is the best thing I’ve eaten in years. Really, really beautiful, clean, honest food - great value. I recommend sharing lots of bits cause of the complexity of flavours they offer. Super kid friendly too. Thank you for being here 😍

Had chicken strips done in a tempura batter and something else with a chili dipping sauce starter and it was lovely. Had the very spicy chicken from the specials board can't remember it's name. Hit spice was just enough to continue tasting the rest of the flavours. Finished off with a oreo cheesecake type dessert. OmG it was lovely nice and firm had to eat it like a biscuit don't think it had been out of the fridge too long which made it firmer

This was a surprise visit from my partner and boy did he do good The restaurant is amazing and the staff and so attentive. Let’s talk food……. I had the spring roll starter and it was by far the best I’ve ever eaten and then the pad Thai and sweet and sour chicken was soooooo delicious I’d eaten it before I could take a photo !! Good prices toooo We will be back

Good Thai food and very nice staff, menu is extensive something for everyone, the younger members of our family group, 5 children aged between 2 and 7 also enjoyed everything they ordered, the portions are large and the food is good quality, great place of you love Thai food.

Food was tasty and fresh. Forgot our mains till we reminded them….over 35 mins after our starters were our mains bought out…after prompting. Male toilets were cold and all urinals were out of order, had to wait till the one toilet was vacant. A lot of used paper towels strewn on floor.

First time eating here and food was brilliant

The behavior of Aom has charmed me. Thank you, Aom, for motivating me to keep up my good behavior through your well-behaving nature. I shall be highly obliged if I could add a value at least to your restaurant

Food was amazing and really well priced. Will definitely be back. Thanks for a great night.

Great service, tasty food and smiles. We were explained that they need table at 7. 30...but plenty of time for us to finish starters and main and beers

Have visited multiple times and it's always lovely food and service, complimentary crackers on arrival with a vegetarian version on request which are so good! We took advantage of the early bird menu on a Tuesday evening which is great value and everything we had was delicious. Highly recommend :)

Amazing food and great service. Authentic Thai food and at very reasonable prices. The Masaman curry was probably the highlight of the whole experience.

Never had a bad experience at the Thai Sakon. Consistent food quality and service over the better part of 20 years we have been going. Waiting staff know what you want and proactively serve it to you!

5 dishes 4 rice drinks and starters. All served amazing. Priced reasonable and lovely to see some atmosphere on a Tuesday night! The seabass was something we have all wanted to try and we just can't hype it enough

Good Atmosphere and tasty food. Although one staff member was not welcoming , others were professional.

Top notch food and service for a party of six. Our orders were served in good time and quantity. Would definitely revisit. A+++++

Lovely food in a lovely place 😊

Has been one of my favourite thai curry places for years but sadly feel like it's gone a little down hill. Ordered a takeaway tonight and although the taste was amazing the portion of chicken, and prawns was very disappointing, 3 curry dishes and i would say less than a half of chicken breast used.After we had eaten we felt we could eat the same again and left feeling hungry. I think this maybe the last time I order from here. Shame always use to rave about it.

Fantastic food. Best Thai around.

Good food and service as always.

Came here for dinner with my partner, service was outstanding, food was excellent and very well priced, will be back.

excellent food, especially the Tom Yum soup and sea bass 😍😍 a real hidden gem!

Really excellent meal this evening

Absolutely lovely food and catered effortlessly to my gluten and dairy intolerance.

Great food and great service. Very good for gluten free and vegan too!

OMG The food was fantastic. So much heat but soooo much flavour. Now I have found this place I will be back here whenever I am in the area. If you like Thai food come here!

It was lovely all round. The only downside to the restaurant is the stairs to enter, because we had a pram. But they were very accommodating even for the pram.

The food here is fantastic and the staff are so attentive and friendly.

Lovely place never fails to provide great food and service recommended

The BEST Thai restaurant I've been to. Can't fault it in any way. Top customer service, choice and quality of food. Highly recommended

Went for the early bird, lots of options to cater for everyone vegetarian/halal/meat eaters. Service was good, food took a while to come out but was worth the wait. Tried the mixed starter was an extra £3 but you get a little bit of everything. Portion sizes were good ,we were absolutely stuffed.

Always amazing food and service. Try the mixed starter…

Appalling service and bad food. Mains took so long to come after starters that we had to get it as a take out or would have got a parking ticket (we had 2hrs on parking.. more than enough for a starter and main for two people, even when busy). All we got were excuses and no apology, and no off of a discount for the fact our meal out together was going to have to be turned into takeaway on plates on our knees at home... We could have done that for half the price. Then to cap it all off my partners food was half cooked when got home, and clearly had just been rushed out when we started complaining as we had been completely forgot about. Appalling service.

We were in Huddersfield to see Muse and were pleased to find a reputable Thai relatively close to the stadium. The setting was quite a surprise as it seemed to be situated in the basement, however the space has been used well and the decor was contemporary and appealing. Service was very good and all staff were cheerful and friendly despite the fact they were busy with lots of other Muse fans. The food was a little bit 'hit and miss'. My ribs starter in a sweet and sour sauce was a bit disappointing as the meat was not the best and the sauce was thin and without the flavour I was expecting. My wife chose the crispy noodles with a prawn mix which came cold! She also thought her stir-fry was only average. My Massaman Curry however was outstanding, it was full of flavour and I have never had better. We had the early bird menu and its pricing was very reasonable. Although there were some disappointments with our meal we'd certainly give this place another try.

Tasty food, quick service and a lovely atmosphere. Plenty of options for vegetarian/halal. I went for the starter + main + coffee combo deal which was really worth the money. Large portion sizes which were filling for 1.

1st time we've visited this place and we're glad we did, we had a lovely time and the food was fantastic. We were seated downstairs which was lovely and comfortable We opted for the early bird menu and there was loads of choice, i had the guy chut ben tort and the pad briaaw waan, both were delicious and flavoursome, my partner had tofu chut beng tort and pad pak pasom,again they were both very nice. We will definitely come here again, can't believe we've left it so long to try it!!

Lovely food and great veggie options.

Rare outing to the cinema and a meal with my son. Chose Thai Sakon as convenient and been a number of times and the food/service always been very good. Chose from early Bird menu and the food quality was very good and plenty on the plate. Excellent value.

The staff were so polite and the food was lovely, totally worth the price will definitely be going again

Been to this restaurant many times before but wasn't overly impressed last night. I really don't think it's value for money. We ordered a main each and a side of vegetables and a side of rice to share. I'm not a big eater but was left feeling hungry after this. We asked for a dessert menu, which having looked at it was a little disappointing. It's pretty much banana everything. I was surprised to see that sorbet and ice cream had disappeared. I asked if they still did sorbet and they said they could do me a mango one and would I like one scoop or two. I said one. The desserts came and they were OK, not great. When we got the bill I was surprised to see that I was charged £4.60 for one scoop of sorbet.. Dearer than anything else on the dessert menu. How can one scoop of sorbet be more expensive that sticky toffee pudding with ice cream?? I queried this by saying "so if I had 2 scoops would it be over £9?" Anyway, long story short they did correct this. It just felt very average last night and not at all value for money. A £60 bill and then came home and made a bagel as I was still hungry. I do have to say the service was very very good. Really nice waiting on staff! Everything else was just OK.

Very good Thai food, the mixed starter was delicious and very well cooked, huge menu, something for everyone and great noodles for the kids. The pad-thai was particularly good.

As always. Service and food excellent. Consistently one of the best in Huddersfield

Really lovely authentic Thai food in a cosy setting with a good atmosphere. Absolutely divine food, mixed starters were great, most notably were the Thai fish cakes and tempura prawns! The mains were delicious, the Pad Gra-Pao with pork is worth writing home about. Maybe even plate licking worthy and the Phad Thai noodles were very yummy indeed. It was chock a block busy on a weeknight, which boasts about the quality of a place! 10/10 would go again. The staff were very hospitable and the tunes were on point! Good spot for a special occasion, or just some delicious food for any occasion!

Always drive past this joint. However was given a dish for take out which wasn’t altered the way I ordered it over the phone. Staff was nice though! Food smelt abit fishy

food was lovely as always! lots of vegan options! big recommendation for the battered mushrooms. only downside is no delivery so you have to collect. Staff were awesome and food was ready at collection time.

Friendly welcoming service. Delicious food with a separate vegetarian and vegan menu. We had mixed vegetables starter in a crispy tempura batter, the texture was amazing and so tasty. For our main we shared a vegetable stir fry and a Thai green curry, both dishes were amazingly delicious but the Green curry was bang on👌😋 We will definitely be back to sample more of the menu.

Next level food , service and people Amazing

Fabulous Restaurant- it never disappoints - the Thai food is just the best 👌

Delicious as always - can't beat the early bird menu!

Excellent service and great food the early bird deal is very good value for money

Went with my friends Sunday evening, the food here is delicious, and the staff are so professional and friendly, Nat our waiter advised one of our group which dishes weren't too spicy, first time she'd tried Thai food, she loved it,a great restaurant!

Last minute dinner with family Had the early bird menu and it had a good choice and was good value Food was excellent and the service was fantastic Can’t recommend enough and will be visiting again

Favourite place in Huddersfield,has been for year's... staff always pleasant and helpful and attentive.Food excellent,early bird menu is such a bargain too...Never had a bad meal here, everything is always spot on....

We have been coming to this restaurant for the last 20 years. Over the last few years the service has gone downhill. I don’t tend to write many reviews but I’ve been left so frustrated this evening as a loyal customer. This evening my friend and I were asked 5 times if we had finished our food. Honestly this is how it feels every time now, like they want to get rid of you as quickly as possible. It’s a shame that Huddersfield lacks plenty of good food. The food here is good but the service is appalling. Please leave your guests to enjoy their meal. The etiquette for clearing a persons table is when they put their knife and fork together! We arrived at the restaurant at around 8:45pm, the food came out around 9:15pm. Half an hour later we were asked 5 times if we’d finished. If you wanted us to only have the table for an hour, you should tell us that when we book! We can then make a decision if that suits us. Then from about 10pm all the staff are clearly desperate to leave and are all sat at the bar looking like they’ve been forced to wait until the final customers have finished! Perhaps if you visit during the 6pm to 9pm period it isn’t as bad but we tend to book an 8:30-9pm table. I’ve left the restaurant feeling like you ruined my experience. Please improve!

One of my favourite restaurants. Food is always good. Service is five star also.

Even before everyone was concerned with allergies they have always been very helpful and walked you through the menu. Added to this fantastic service the food is excellent and second to none.

Food's great, can't fault them at all. We always pay less than we'd expect, service is great, the setting is lovely too. The thing that really stands out though is how attentive they are to allergy requirements. We've had meals where our party had multiple distinct allergies to very common ingredients and we've never had any problems whatsoever. They've been very clear about what menu items might be problematic and have bent over backwards to accommodate us.

Absolutely amazing. Spot on service, friendly and helpful. Food was amazing

Good food, good service and efficient service. Place was packed, meaning it has good food. Got the parking across the road and we finished within 90 mins

Always lovely food and great service. The staff are always polite and friendly. The food is fantastic and never disappoints.

The Massamam Curry was one of the best things I've ever tasted. Excellent service and great food all round.

We were a party of 14, we had a large selection of diferent starters and mains and everything was excellent, the food was delicious, the serve excellent and the price very good for the quality and quantity of food we were served. Can highly recommend.

The food was delicious, and the staff amazing! Great experience

Thought I was not a big fan of Thai food. I'm a convert. Being veggie I'm usually gutted with poor selection. Not here, lots of choice. The food was sooooo tasty. The staff were amazing and so friendly. Definitely recommend.

Amazing food. Love coming here as a treat. Early bird menu is very good value

Excellent food and very good service. Had an early dinner before a show and it was fairly busy already. A bit cold but they promptly addressed that when we raised it. Enjoyed our meal and will return.

My first time here, but won't be my last! Absolutely gorgeous food, and lovely setting. Will definitely return.

Loved it in here. My first Thai experience. Will definitely be going back. Staff were attentive and the food was amazing.

Had a good meal with family, the service was friendly and nothing was too much trouble for our large party. Had a great selection of dishes as everything was tasty and fresh, as always, all round a great Thai restaurant.

Nice food.nit a Thai food expert, but it was fresh, hot, well flavoured and really spicy. Fast service

We have been looking for a local Thai place and decided to go there following good reviews. What a gem! Absolutely amazing food, one of the best Thai foods I had. Great choice of food and drinks. Staff is so attentive and friendly and very lovely to talk to. Great deco and quiet, chill atmosphere. This will be our favourite place now, well recommended.

Went for early bird menu and it was delicious, ta

Stepping through the doors into Thai Sakon you are immediately taken away from the cold damp night air of Huddersfield and you know this is the place to be. The waitress showed us to a table and left for us to decide on our meal choices. There were not many free tables this Wednesday night which is a good indication this is a very good restaurant. Having taken our drinks and food choices, it was only about 10 mins before our starters arrived, which were Guy Chut Beng Tort, chicken strips deep fried in Japanese breadcrumbs with a chilli sauce and Salmon Yang, skewers of salmon and vegetables with a peanut sauce, both delicious. Mains were Pad Gratiem Prik Thai, chicken strips in special Thai garlic and pepper sauce and Lamb Massaman curry, too many ingredients to list, have a look yourself on their website, both with rice. Again both were delicious, clean plates showed that, with two bottles of beer and 1 sparkling water the bill was just over £50, great value. The staff were nice and friendly, overall a great meal out, I would highly recommend Thai Sakon. 10/10.

Myself, my partner and our baby recently visited and had a wonderful meal. We're vegan so it was great to be able to clearly see which options were vegan. We ordered from the early bird menu which was great value and the food was fantastic! The service was quick and really friendly, they even interacted with our baby which not all places do. High chairs are available and are a good height against the table. The only note I'd make is the crackers that were served when we were seated weren't vegan but we weren't made aware of that so it might be good to check dietary requirements before giving them to the table to avoid waste, other than that we had a fantastic time.

A group visit, hadn't been for a few years , great service, excellent meal

Unbelievably delicious food, amazing service, short wait times! Just a great time overall. Definitely would recommend!!! 👍

Freshly cooked authentic thai food which we all liked but portion sizes could have been bigger.

Very good Thai food and the evening menu is a good deal. The wine is expensive and not very good.

Dined on a Friday evening. It was a busy night so am pleased we booked a table. As usual everything was perfect. Greeted at the door, and shown to our table. The menu has a separate section for vegetarian/vegan which is very useful to save...

Fantastic experience as always BUT only 3 staff working front of house so a lot less attentive and swift than usual. Otherwise, this would be a 5 ⭐️ result 😉

Usually love this place, this visit was for a birthday treat, we were very disappointed with the service and the food. Will be a long while before another visit

My sons 16th birthday today, didn't tell the staff but after our meal they came out with a plate of profiteroles and sang happy birthday. Our waitress had obviously noticed my sons badge and card on the table. Such a lovely gesture. Always love it here but this was a cherry on the cake thank you very much 😊

Excellent place, staff lovely so authentic and food amazing, going back next week.

Lovely place, lovely people..♥️

Great food as normal for this great restaurant, can not fault it or the service.
