Thai Square - Islington in Islington

Unprofessional and unapologetic. My friend who is coeliac had 2 email exchanges and a phone conversation regarding our booking for a party of 5, as she needed to check whether they could accommodate her. She was reassured, and confirmed the booking. We arrived at 19.30 to find there was no record of the booking. We were seated and asked for a couple more minutes to decide on drinks, That was the last we saw of any member of staff at our table. My friend went to speak to find a member of staff to try and sort out what happened with the booking. No-one had any knowledge of it, despite being shown the emails, and seemed to have no idea about gluten free or coeliac needs re separate food prep areas etc. There seemed to be only 2 members of front of house staff dealing with quite a few tables. We decided after 20 minutes of no service to go over the road to Pho, where we got the usual cheerful and efficient service and decent food. Luckily we knew Pho, where the menu is 97% gluten free, but in other circumstances this could have meant not finding somewhere our friend could eat. None of us will eat at a Thai Square in future.. Really poor. Oh and see their reply below - I have never been contacted by their customer service team.

Ate here with friends. The decorum and the food were great and the waiting staff were very attentive and helpful.

Can't fault this restaurant. It was clean in the toilets and the restaurant. The staff are so kind and have great attention to detail :-) Will be coming again!

nice mango sticky rice, but portion could be bigger. thank you

Came here recently with friends for dinner. We were seated quickly; service was helpful and relatively fast; all the food tasted great and portion sizes were decent too. Overall, a good experience for our party!

It's okay, but unfortunately a little expensive for what they offer.

Three of us went for an evening meal on a Tuesday when it as quite quiet. Our food came really quickly which was great and I enjoyed my pad Thai. The staff were lovely.

Had a very tasty meal here last night. Service was great, staff friendly and professional and not at all rushed. It’s a big restaurant and not so busy on a Wednesday eve, so tables were plenty. Would recommend.

This is definitely not traditional Thai flavor, it's too salty, way too sweet. The only positive thing was the staff service.

Have been many times and food was good. This time we where so disappointed.I ordered scallops love prawn dish which was two and a half scallops with three king prawns for £19.95 rice extra. Complete rip off. My husband had sweet and sour chicken which was very finely sliced it was so chewy he could not eat it. We where given £5.85 discount off bill . Very disappointed not what it used to be .

Me and my friend visited the Thai Square restaurant in Islington yesterday. We were so impressed with the service food and atmosphere also, the staff were so friendly and very supportive. So The food was so delicious and so so fresh, me and my friend will be returning very soon again so whoever is reading this review please go and try the food i’m make a visit you won’t be disappointed so awesome and so delicious 😋 Thank you for reading my review. Themis

The absolute best sweet and sour chicken I’ve ever had. Loved this place.

First time there and had an amazing experience with amazing food, i felt very welcomed by Boy and tue lovely ladies that worked there. 10/10

Really good food. Loved the ambience. Exceptional service by Opal and Peachy. ☺️

Amazing food! Our waitress Opal - Peachy was quick w service, super sweet and friendly!

Thanks Peachy-Preme for the great service. Accommodated gluten free really well!

Thanks to Peachy and Preme,It was an excellent service

great food and great dining experience! peachy was a great host

Food was nice, except one severe safety issue: A staple (from paper stapler) was in food. Staff apologised and changed rice but didn't address my question why it was there. Still tried to charge service charge. Not my first time, but I'm very disappointed by lack of care about safety

Greeted by a lovely lady called Peachy, there’s a special menu until 6.30pm which some of us had. Food was great, only my second Thai restaurant and really enjoyed the food. Service was excellent and friendly. We were only visiting the area and were pleased to find such a lovely place for dinner. I would definitely recommend a visit, excellent food, staff and price.

This is a regular place for us. The food is very good and the service smiling.

Nice food but too expensive for small portion size

Good Thai food. Medium-high level, without excelling. The service is good, fast, and the place is nice and clean

Good atmosphere and service from Parn.

Went there with a couple of friends and enjoyed my meal in this restaurant 😀 staff was nice, food came very quickly and i thought the restaurant was very clean overall. I think the price is reasonable for the quality and the portion of the food

Good food and good cleanliness. Parn was also very friendly.

Lovely restaurant, good tasty food and lovely service. Thank you Parn 😀

The food was delicious! The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is very pleasant.

Delicious Thai dishes served in a cozy ambiance. The staff was vey nice , ensuring a delightful dining experience from start to finish.

Have been ordering from this place regularly for quite some time and it never let me down. Finally stopped by personally a few days ago and glad to confirm, that I was not disappointed. Delicious dishes and great service, highly recommend!

Excellent friendly service. Delicious food, good menu choice, something for everyone, good value too. Our first visit , would definitely go back.

The best Thai restaurant in this area. The tamarind duck was amazing, thank you Ohm for making me feel comfortable.

The food was tasty and brilliant service from Ohm.

We had a really good experience, food exceeded our expectations. Everything was super flavourful and tasty. Loved the authenticity. And service was excellent, the phenomenal Ploy and Peachy treat us like queens! Many thanks

What a place ! Welcomed as soon as in the door with a smile and friendly staff. Order taken quickly and when the food arrived we were so impressed. fantastic food.Would definitely recommend and will be back

parn and the team looked after us tonight. food was delicious and after a long day at work it was exactly what we needed

Lovely food and lovely service from Peachy!

Not a bad Thai Restaurant on Islington High Street. Food is quite nice, nothing special but fine👍 The Layout is nice, the Service was average, we visited on a Thursday evening, it was quiet (which was good) but the Service was slow and error prone (wrong Food Orders 🫤) Overall worth a visit if you want a quick Thai Meal 👍

Everything was delicious. The Mango juice, passion fruit, grenadine (tropical lust) was so nice. I also had the fresh ginger tea and I ate the shredded ginger. 🤭😁😜 The Thai Royal (Mekhong) is 💯

We have to ask for the early bird menu, this was not given with the regular menu. We were close to walking out as we entered because of the early bird menu

Such a disappointment. I’d always heard of Thai Square being a good upscale Thai chain so was happy to give it a try for dinner after a conference. Wow. Not good. Service was nonexistent. Had to flag down to order and get up to find someone to pay the bill. Dumplings were stodgy with a very thick dipping sauce. The ‘hangover beef’ which was just what they called their nam tok beef was so sour as to be inedible. At £19 it was not well priced. And the pad Thai was too. sweet. Again the sauce was oddly thick. Chang beer at £5 was borderline flat and overpriced. As we were leaving the group next to us complained about not having service either. Definitely won’t be back. Glad we were paying as it went on an expense account. If it was out of my pocket they’d get 2 stars.

I brought my cousin here to celebrate her engagement. Calm atmosphere, attentive staff, great food . Lovely experience overall.

We visited Thai Square after a long walk along Regents Canal. We were very hungry and Thai Square did not disappoint. We had the lunch time menu with mixed starters, soup and a main course. All three courses were delicious. I thought the prices were quite reasonable considering everywhere is very expensive these days. I love Thai food and don't eat enough of it, so it was wonderful to find a Thai restaurant which lived up to expectations. The restaurant decor is also very nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I would thoroughly recommend this place.

It is super delicious and specious~ Super recommended

Food was good . But rushed out quickly. If they are open until 10. I don't expect tables to be swept around whilst I am eating... bad form .

Worst Restaurant ever, waiting time is more then 50 minutes which is worse ever i’ve seen.

Can’t find fault in this place. Great food and ambiance. Mike and Ream provided us fantastic service!

Had a lovely time, management was great and Peachy the waitress provided a good service as well!! Great spot!

Really kind, helpful " Deam and Peachy:)

Nice food and great service from Parn and Ohm!

Amazing place! Food and service was amazing, the young gentleman who served us was really good! And so was Parn! She was very lovely ! Would definitely recommend coming here - anyone who comes here should try the salt and pepper squid starters! Absolutely divine!

Had the chicken satay as an appetizer, a bit burnt and not particularly good but the red curry was amazing!! Really nice atmosphere and great service.

Food so delicious and nice staff, our served is Parn

We had an amazing waitress called Lilly , the service was fantastic. The food was absolutely spot on. You must try the duck spring rolls and the vegetable tempura. The massaman curry was phenomenal. You must come and try it all. A DEFINITE MUST!!!

Absolutely beautiful food with a stunning waitress

Amazing food and a beautiful waitress called lily that served us ❤️

Nice service and nice food served by Parn

Great food and thanks Ohm for excellent service.

Amazing experience thanks to Parn to give us an amazing experience

Overall the food was ok, the beef was very chewy and very well done, the coconut rice was pretty bland and the noodles were ok. The prawns special dish was pretty good and the dumplings for starters had really hard nuts or something on them which were too hard to chew. Overall I don’t think I’d visit again

Lovely place and my all time favourite is sticky rice 🤩 Great kudos to Deam and Peachy for amazing service this evening

The pad Thai is great! The coconut chicken soup is okay. I guess you just need to pick the right dishes. Dream provided excellent service, really appreciate it thank you!

The look is the only nice thing here, I didn’t even want to pay, but paid anyway out of respect, it’ was not nice and a total rip off. The egg noodles had gooey Chicken and wasn’t appetising. The chicken dumplings had no chicken in it and was just soft squished up flour baked. I didn’t enjoy it at all, I didn’t even eat I left my plate after a few bites and then paid for something I didn’t even eat. Absolutely nasty I won’t be coming again

We arrived today at 8.50 PM and could not eat anymore, because we could only order until 9 PM and we would have to wait very long for our food. We told them that that would be O.K. for us, but they told us that we could but eat. Extremely bad service. We won’t go back.

Service left alot to be desired as the resturant was not busy they sere very slow with the main and showing us the dessert menu Not impressed with the when I got home to find a optional service charge which I was not told was on the bill

Delicious food, lovely staff (especially Boy Ohm and Parn) and relaxed atmosphere. Good vegan and vegetarian options.

Super great food, super cute place. Peachy was the best, she made the experience a million times better! Will definitely be back.

Food was amazing, ambiance was great - thanks Peachy for exceptional service as well!

Very good service: professional, speedy and particularly friendly. Food and flavours are average. Exactly what you expect without surpassing any expectations. A special note on the lamb shank phanang curry, that dish was really good and highly recommended and something I had not seen before in a Thai restaurant. If you are in Angel and want to try something new maybe this is a decent option. We went mid-week during the holiday season so the venue was a bit empty. Can't really make many comments on the atmosphere as I appreciate we did not go at the best time.

Nice food and service from Peachy and other waiters, but prawns had no flavour 🦐 I think next time Seabass

Peachy and Bow was brilliant! Food was tasty, lovely atmosphere and service was impeccable! The seabass meal...HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IT!!!

Cozy environment, reasonable price. The staff Peachy is friendly.

Nice service from Peachy and the male waiter. Food excellent other than the prawns didn’t have any taste.

Food of this restaurant is absolutely amazing. We were hosted by Lily. She is superb. Kept checking on us and had a good chat. This restaurant is a gem in Islington.

We visited Thai Square Islington by chance: we were looking for somewhere for dinner, didn't have a reservation and Thai Square looked good from the outside. We were greeted promptly and in a friendly way, and offered a choice of a few tables. Our waiter, Ohm, was attentive, friendly and got everything right. The service was speedy and the food was delicious! Particularly, the vegetarian Pad Thai and vegetarian spring rolls were really nice. There was background music, but in my opinion was just the right level - not too noisy. Would absolutely visit again.

Amazing place to eat healthy and good atmósfere

Solid place for Thai food in Islington. Ohm our waiter took care of us very nicely.

Very elegant restaurant in the buzzing heart of Islington. Warm and welcoming with an atmosphere suiting for the entire family. Need I say more? Book your table for a visit to get your own awesome experience.

Turned up without reserving table. Received a warm welcome from restaurant staff. A quiet place, though there were many customers, the food and cocktails were delicious, as I have become accustomed too, having previously eaten here many times before.

Location good, ambiance fine and service okay. Food mediocre - Pad Thai was very oily and tasteless.

The food is absolutely delish. We had a starter sharing platter. Everything was quality. As were the mains and cocktails. Super lovely staff too. We will be back.

Fantástico, decidimos entrar devido à decoração que vimos da rua, fomos atendidos pelo Boy, o sabor da comida e a música ambiente por incrivelmente pareça bateram a decoração. Recomendo ☺️

Lovely food and great service from our server Ohm

The only reason for 4 stars was we realised the table was sticky, not cleaned properly, and the hand cream in the ladies toilets needed to be refilled. Apart from this the food was delicious and filling. I would recommend going

Lovely food especially the Caramel Chicken. Lychee cocktail was also really good. Services was quick and staff very nice and friendly.

Great spot for Thai food, Peachy was our waitress and took great care of us. Upscale environment that's my go-to for last minute plans, there's no usually a wait without a reservation

The food tasted pretty average and the portion sizes were quite small. The prices are on the more expensive side, as they charged £9 for a small omelette and the bill came to £32/person. Hygiene standards also need improvement as the waiter gave us empty plates with his fingers touching the middle of the plates.

Food always tastes fresh and it all comes at a very reasonable price.

Had a Great team lunch there. Peachy was our waitress and was excellent

Food is amazing here I love the lamb shank panang curry - however service is not great, they never brought things on our order, took forever to get the bill and we felt very forgotten about.

Authentic food and the spice level is as they say, overall a very delicious meal and great service from boy(our server)

I ordered a Mushroom in coconut soup and a Chicken Pad Thai and both were absolutely AMAZING! also, my waiter BOY was super nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

Very efficient service, very kind and helpful despite my two chaotic children and food also very good. Thanks

菜很好吃 服务也很棒 The foods are delicious and also have a very nice service, Boy is a very kind attendant!

Second time in here after 4 years. One of the best food I’ve ever had and could not forget. Lovely atmosphere lovely staff, nice ambience and good lounge music for dining. Elegant place I must say✨ thank you very much to Parn , the gorgeous manager

Ohm services very nice! All ordered food were very nice and have exactly Thai taste! Perfect!

Had a great work lunch at Thai Square near Angel station. The food was tasty and arrived quickly, the service from Peachy was impeccable, she made us feel welcome and recommended a dish that was super good. Thank you!

Lovely lunch! They do a lunchtime deal which is such great value for money. Peachy was our waitress and she was super friendly.

Thai Square in Angel never fails to impress with deliciously authentic cooking, flawless friendly service and a nice atmosphere amidst minimalist warm decor and nicely spaced tables so it never feels crowded, noisy or rushed. We loved the Chu Chi jumbo prawns and new Hangover Beef dishes in particular but all the classics are also great!

Peachy was great! Had a really nice Thai food :)
