We dined at the restaurant while in London for a cruise that we were taking out of Southampton, UK. The restaurant was very nicely decorated. The wait staff was friendly. Our orders were quickly taken, and our meals arrived quickly. Our food was tasty and well prepared. The restaurant is located across the street from the Canopy Hilton Hotel.

Staying in a nearby hotel so went here for dinner on Saturday evening at 7pm. Fairly empty at this time, and was placed beside a table where the child was playing her tablet. Didnt notice at first but then was wondering why i could hear peppa pig. Staff didn't pass any notice of this to their shame. The child needed to have headphones or a much lower volume. Its a Saturday evening and this is unacceptable. Food was ok, certainly not worth putting up with this.

I got the spicy seafood and it was very over cooked and not at all fresh. Everything was like eating varying degrees of rubber. For 22£ it’s completely unacceptable. The service was also terrible even though. There were very few people there. Not once did my server bother ask if I needed anything or if everything was good. I clearly left a lot of my entrée uneaten but he didn’t care to ask I suppose if there was a problem.

Reception was cordial, got to choose our seating for two as the establishment was not very busy at the time. Food was nice and price was standard. Took a fairly long time to get the bill as new tables arrived and attention was diverted.

This is a large, beautifully appointed and yet intimate restaurant that features dining options from different regions of Thailand. We started with the 2-person Starter Platter followed by their two Pad Thai options. (Yes, I acknowledge our choices were predictable, but we simply love Pad Thai.) It is reasonably price, the staff friendly and attentive.

Disappointing. I ordered the Singapore Noodles, one of the specialities. It was nothing special. Bland, flavourless, no sauce, no seasoning. The protein was chewy. Horrible dish. The service was very efficient but totally disinterested and void of warmth. The food came out really quickly though, which is why I gave 2 stars and not 1. Won't go back.

Stunning venue and was very quiet when we visited (hot summer Sunday late afternoon) and we were served very quickly and food came in a flash. Nice staff but food wasn’t great. Vegan Pad Thai very sickly sweet, drowned in sweet and sour sauce and lacking in the usual peanut/satay type flavour. Tofu almost inedible - so chewy and rubber like. Nice sticky sauce and good vegetarian spring rolls. Not awful but probably wouldn’t return,

Best pad Thai I've had in a long long time. Beautiful gem of a place found on a Sunday evening, very attentive and courteous service by Brooklyn, but the rest of the crew was really lovely, too. Absolutely recommending Long Island Ice Tea. Tastes delicious! Food is phenomenal, I have not had a Thai food in a while and frankly, craved some, and was stoked to find some nearby our hotel. Everything was very fresh and delicious. Perfect balance of flavours and heat, just enough to tickle the tastebuds. COME FOR A VISIT, there's nothing else like it in the area, you won't regret.

On our first evening we chose the least resistance option. So just 100 meters across the street. Unfortunately an error. It wasn't worth the money and the room felt like a canteen.

Took the team for lunch at Thai Square and it was great! There was such a great menu selection that everyone managed to find a few options that worked for their taste and dietary preferences. I went for the tofu satay, ginger tofu and vegan ice cream with candy floss, all were delicious, hot and very fresh. We had booked for an early lunch as we typically start early so the restaurant was super quiet when we arrived and were the only diners until about an hour later. The restaurant got much busier after 1pm but still quiet - such is life in the city on a Friday now as most people work from home. I'd definitely recommend for a team lunch, family meal or even a celebration meal as the restaurant is stunning, the staff are attentive without being intrusive and the food is fab and not overpriced.

Working in Soho I know there are a few places where you can get food for around £5. But this is the only one that is clean, you get served on the table or need to go for another dish because lunch felt more like a snack than lunch.

Esto tiene la sensación de un auténtico café tailandés. Se ha prestado muy poca atención a la decoración y todo el lugar se ve más bien sin encanto, ¡pero no se deje engañar! El personal es encantador y el lugar siempre está lleno porque la comida es deliciosa. Los platos de arroz están precocinados, lo que significa que también puede ser un lugar muy rápido para almorzar.

I'm not sure why there's a double listing for this place.Ok, I loved Jane Tira--I mean, loved this place so much that we used it for our informal wedding dinner last year! As locals, we'd been going for years. It was always known for delicious, authentic food; friendly service (though a little slow at peak times); and very reasonable prices (for Soho). The moo ping here? It was to die for.When we visited two weeks ago, we saw some new faces but the decor looked the same--until we saw the menu. Weirdly enough, the branding appears to have been kept intact, and the website is now a bizarre mix of factoids and literal transcription of the menu items. I asked the waitress if Jane Tira was under new management, and she seemed confused; when I asked if this was new ownership, she said yes, but the food (and I quote) "is more better." Reassuring? Not really, as the food had been excellent before.Still, we ordered our 'don't feel like picking' from what we knew had been solid choices in the past, so we'd have an easy comparison. We went for the moo ping and corn cakes to start, then I got tofu pad see euw and my spouse got chicken pad thai.The starters took quite a while, but came nicely presented. Unfortunately, that was as good as it'd get.First sign nothing good was to come: everything was served with lemon wedges. I'm not sure why they couldn't find limes, but big sour Persian lemons are absolutely not the right accompaniment to Thai food (and yes, they were definitely lemons).Corn cakes: claggy, horribly doughy, not enough corn, too thick, not a single hint of kaffir lime leaves--which give the corn cakes their nicely aromatic flavour. Served with tragic bottled sweet sauce rather than the home-made nam chim kai we used to get.Moo ping: cold (!), limp, no grill marks, tough; the dipping sauce tasted like a weird combo of bottled sauce and discordant spices, it should have been nam jim jaew, which had previously been lusciously smoky.Pad thai: okay. uninspiring, with almost too much veg and not enough chicken, which itself was very dry. there didn't appear to be a drop of tamarind in the sauce at all, and certainly no shrimp paste, which made the whole dish taste flat.Pad see euw: I actually had to send this back, which I almost never do, because it was so charred as to be inedible--I'm not talking about 'a few noodles caught at the edges', I'm talking 'all the soy sauce was put into a hot wok and went past caramelisation into actual carbonisation, then more liquids were sloshed on top to loosen it, and all of that became the sauce' levels of nasty. A rookie mistake, and so bitter that it was impossible to swallow. I mentioned this to the server, with my apologies, and he looked a little confused; 'oh, you don't like it?' Look, if I didn't like it, I wouldn't be enough of a jerk to send it back. I said that I suspected the soy sauce had burned and hadn't been added at the right time, or perhaps the chef had been distracted, but he didn't seem overly concerned about the feedback. I asked him to perhaps just bring me tofu pad thai instead.It was as flavourless as the chicken, and the tofu wasn't even crispy. About the only consolation was the amount of toasted peanut, because I couldn't even douse it in lime juice--since I only had a giant wedge of unripe lemon.So run, don't walk, away from this place. Some developer has taken this well-loved Soho staple and turned it into some of the worst attempts at inauthentic Thai we've ever had the misery of eating.At the moment, your best bet is Rosa's a couple streets over, though the moo ping isn't a strong point (the curries, however, are excellent) or, if you want something a touch lighter, Viet Pho at 34 Greek Street, which does a pretty decent pad thai and really, really good Vietnamese food.
