Thames Restaurant in Hounslow

Little insider tip, great restaurant!

Food was fantastic, it was real Thai food (been to Thailand many times before)! It's just a shame that we had to wait for 15 minutes for the server to take order and then another 20 minutes for food to come. Also, Amex isn't accepted which is okay as I understand the charges for small business can be quite high, the server went to tell me to use an 'UK card', my friend and I can't understand what is going on. We have 'UK Card' but does that mean we can't use debit / credit card (Visa & Master) issued by other countries? Does that mean tourists shouldn't dine here? It's quite confusing.

Visited this place with friends. Food is great. We ordered three different meals and there were amazing. Great staff and atmosphere. Definitely worth it.

As a chef I can highly recommend this restaurant, the food is amazingly fresh with top quality ingredients, with a depth of flavour that is sometimes lacking with Thai food in London. Service is excellent and very friendly. Beautiful food.

Really good restaurant. It must be a little known secret, as it's easy to get a table. Service is good and prompt. The meals are top notch: well prepared and flavored.

unfortunately it was slightly salty

Excellent food, staff is very friendly and it is not crowded, though you better book in advance.

It was full of groups during the day and I was told it would take a long time, so I sat down and waited for a really long time to eat, but the food was very delicious. I want to go again next time when it's quiet.

I ordered prawn pineapple fried rice, Chicken Pad Thai, Tom yum soup and Thai milk tea to dine in. Food presentation was amazing, portion lived up to the price. Generally it’s delicious as well. However it’s slightly disappointing that the fried rice was a bit too soft and clumped. I’ll expect the rice to be firmer and better. Also, the floor was very sticky, I believe more floor cleaning should be done in this regard. Overall it was a decent meal and I will be back whenever I’m around this area again.

Tasty food, well presented and authentic. We will come back

I ordered the chicken Pad Thai from Thai on Thames for £13.95, which was a bit preoccupied for takeaway lunch. Apart from that the portion size was huge and the flavour was fantastic. It had plenty of bean sprouts and carrots, adding a nice crunchy texture that complemented the dish well. The chilli flakes on the side provided just the right amount of heat without being overpowering. Overall, a very satisfying meal.

Unassumingly excellent. Food is authentic and completely delicious, staff are lovely. If you're in Kingston and in the mood for exceptional Thai cuisine, this is a must stop.

My favourite Thai restaurant in London. The crab meat fried rice is very good.

Delicious cuisine and brilliant service!

The food is amazing, delicious and aromatic, the staff are lovely and friendly. Their Thai milk tea is perfect and the mango sticky rice is too, its like bring back in Thailand! I highly recommend the tom yum noodles 😋, great portion and super tasty!

We love this restaurant. Our go to if ever in Kingston for dinner. The papaya salad reminds us of our holiday in Thailand and not been disappointed in any of our visits.

Been here multiple times, food’s always amazing. Definitely come here if you crave for authentic thai food👍🏼

I can confidently say that this restaurant has the most authentic thai food in all of kingston, such amazing food and wonderful service definitely recommend going here for some fresh thai food. I went here with my family for some dinner and the service was very quick for how busy it was. very pleased

Hygiene rating 1 out of 5. My friend and I had a decent lunch and well served by the lady owner. Food was flavoursome. However, one day after the meal, my friend and I got same food poisoning symptoms at the same time. We only had that meal together and I checked the food hygiene rating of the restaurant is only 1. We can confidently say the food served was contaminated. While this restaurant has very high rating on Google, do look at its hygiene rating on Food Standards Agency. https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/1386031 Update: I could not get this review posted due to google review. I visited the restaurant on 26 Jan. My review was posted immediately after I got well enough to use my computer. The alleged hygiene rating from the shop’s reply is not true. The last hygiene inspection was 27 April 2023 and the result is 1 out of five.

This is the best food I've ever had in the Kingston area I went to school here for a year and this is the only restaurant where I think the food is mostly good but the food can be slow when it's busy but because it's delicious so wait Bar

I had the fish cakes to start and then the duck red curry with a pinot grigio wine. I must say the red curry is one of the best I've ever had so fully recommend this restaurant

Really testy, and authentic Thai recipes. Mango salad was fresh, going to come back next time visiting Kingston. Never had fried prawns that beautifully cooked like this before.

Some friends and I came for dinner yesterday evening and absolutely loved it! We had the vegetarian dumplings, spring rolls and pad Thai, they were all so fresh & delicious. The portion sizes were also great! - The staff were so friendly and kind, and made sure to ask and reassure about our dietary needs (being Vegetarian) Would 100% recommend 🫶🏼

Very good place, good service, nice staff.

It such long time I did not visit Thai restaurant in UK as I could cook all Thai foods. So this restaurant was real Thai taste I could say.

By far the best Thai restaurant in Kingston

Good food, good ambiance. Server was rude. Food was yummy. Second visit update: Food was good again. Service was poor, had to wait 20 minutes to be seated although many tables were available.

Great place. Fast friendly service. Nice and spicy. Definitely get the morning glory.

Wow the food is good here. Our favourite Thai in Kingston.

不要去这个餐厅，十点钟关门。九点半就提前关门。特别恶心。服务员看你是一个人来，就自作主张，不接待客人。真的恶心死了。。。

Had a fantastic meal here just tonight with my partner :) lovely considerate service made us feel very welcome and comfortable not to mention the food which was just perfect; the best Asian cuisine you could get in the whole town in a lovely quieter area! We highly recommend the Thai milk tea, thd calamari, the chicken padthai and the mango sticky rice! Definitely will come back and bring friends and family :)

The staff is rude when being asked about the no-show dishes though the foods are good

Very nice Thai food in a slightly quieter street in Kingston. We were the first people in on a Saturday evening, so the service was very prompt and friendly. We ordered Pad Thai, Grilled Chicken and plain Jasmine Rice — along with a Tiger Lager and some Jasmine Tea. Pad Thai was very nice, with not much spice, and they did give you the option to add heat with chilli flakes which were on the side of the plate. The grilled chicken had lovely flavour with nice crispy bits of skin, but the salad was fairly spicy. Definitely recommend if you're into Thai or other Asian cuisines.

Wonderful food and service, I'd highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves That food

Always have a great time there with family or friends. Excellent fresh cooking and decent prices. Super hospitality.

Super friendly service, good vibe, and really, really great food

Very slow service. It was not busy in the restaurant, and there were three free tables, and only four or five tables of guests, but the waitress (the only one in the restaurant) let us wait for at least a half hour, and we didn’t get served eventually, left with starving stomachs. The service is as slow as a sloth.

Very friendly service, good portions and great tasting food.

Good chosen restaurant! authentic taste! No regret!

Superb food and great staff who try and ensure you are very well looked after. Very highly recommend a visit.

음식이 간도 딱 맞고 정말 정말 맛있었어요! 런던에서 먹어본 중 최고의 타이 푸드였어요. 손님이 너무 많아서 어수선했지만 그만큼 맛이 인증된 것 같아요ㅎㅎ 꼭 다시 가고 싶네요♡

The food was ok.....the bill was handwritten would have preferred to get a printed bill.

This place delivers some of the best Thai food I've tasted in a long time. The green chicken curry and duck massaman curry are absolutely delicious... fresh, vibrant, flavoursome and the duck melted in the mouth. Accompanying we had the spinach and the broccoli - both were cooked perfectly and great balance of chilli/garlic. Looking forward to coming back!

To be honest we are pretty happy with the food. Staffs were nice. However the evening we visited the restaurant there was a big group for birthday celebration. We waited for 45 mins for a salad, a curry and pad Thai. I assume that's just an exception case. Staffs apologised for the long wait. Generally happy with the food. Portion can be slightly bigger.

We have tried many thai restaurants in London and we highly recommend their Pad Thai and green curry. It is the closest taste to authentic thai dishes in Bangkok. Very family touch setting and friendly environment. We will definitely visit regularly.

I had higher expectations based on previous reviews posted. The food was really average. Duck curry was a bit overcooked. Soup and curry were oily. Pad See Ew was bland. Service and decor was nice and had a nice local neighbourhood vibe. Personally won't be returning

Authentic Thai food with the most reasonable price and friendly service in a nice Thai decorated and scented restaurant. Will return for sure. Was craving for good Thai food and my friend recommended Thai On Thames. First bite of the chicken satay dipped in their curry sauce made me smile as I immediately knew the spring roll and pad see ew with prawns would be great too. I told the lady who served my table how much I enjoyed the meal and extended my gratitude to their Thai chef. It’s the authentic flavor I had during my every visit to their country. Please keep up these cooking!

Cute restaurant with friendly staff. Ordered the Wontons for starters and the Green Curry with Prawn for mains, it was delicious! Food was great!

The staff was nice. I had prawn pad thai and the food is good. The thai milk tea was also good, just a little bit sweet for me.

Delicious food. Lovely staff. Very accommodating considering I can't eat chilli any more. Also because of my digestive issues I can only eat small portions and was able to take away what I was unable to eat. Very well cooked food. My husband and I are accomplished cooks and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Good value for money.

Finally we found the best Thai food in Kingston! Everything was so delicious that we had no time for the pictures. Next time as we for sure are coming back there!

Excellent food in a relaxed environment. Friendly hosts.

Really versitile menu and caters very well for vegetarians. We tried the tofu and vegetable pad Thai, green curry with jasmine rice and spring rolls. All the food came out promptly and was very nice. I also tried the Thai ice tea which I highly recommend. The waitress for very kind and greated us as soon as we entered Thank you Thai on Thames!

A nice family run restaurant. Lovely food and great service 🙂

Very authentic and amazing food!

Better than few years experience as the shop fixed the floor hole. Food is fine and people are nice. The only thing disappointed me was the Thai beer made in UK but not Thailand even its so called the original Thai beer.

Simple menu. No frills restaurant. Incredible food. Charming service

Well decorated, good music, lovely staff. I highly recommend this place. We ordered the calamari and spring rolls as starters, some of the best spring rolls I've had, and I'm not sure what sauce they used on the calamari, but again some of the best calamari I've tasted. We decided to order the duck curry with pineapple, I really enjoyed this dish even though I was hesitant as the pineapple and duck combination was new to me. We also ordered some noodles (I've forgotten the name of the dish but it roughly consisted of bamboo, vegetables and chicken), which was also something new that I was pleasantly surprised by. I was surprised at how empty the place was to start with, but over time it started to get busier... which made a lot more sense. I will definitely be returning if I'm in Kingston again!

Thai on Thames is such a hidden gem. The food is delicious and the staff are so lovely. Our favourites are the Pad Thai, massaman curry, fried cod in curry sauce and the calamari! Definitely try this place if you are in the area

Brilliant little Thai restaurant. I’ve been here 5 times now and every dish has been super tasty.

29th Dec 2021 Popped in for lunch chicken satay starter and chicken pad Thai. Nice portion size nice food.

Amazing food and service. We had three starters corn cakes, fish cakes and chicken satay. For mains, we had chicken pad see ew and grilled chicken with papaya salad. All the dishes very perfectly balanced and cooked to perfection. Chicken was moist and flavourful, unlike a lot of other Thai restaurants. Also I like that dishes were not overly sweet. The waitress was also very friendly and attentive. Definitely will be coming back.

Eight of us visited there on Friday 17th December 21, to celebrate my sons 32nd birthday. Family run restaurant, great staff serving great Thai traditional food at reasonable prices. Would recommend & looking forward to visiting again soon!!!

Lovely family run business, right in the heart of Kingston. Amazing food and great customer service. Definitely recommend.

Lovely Thai meal. Good sized portions and great presentation of dishes.

wonderful service, beautiful fresh food. Thank you very much ☺️

Fantastic service and quality food, will be coming back.

Came here with friends on recommendation of a friend who is local (and part of our group). It was a great choice. Absolutely lovely food. The hostess/waitress/manager is just the best. Customer service is excellent. If I were to mark them down for anything, they only had four desserts available on the menu... tbf we were their lady customers for the day... And what desserts they did have were sublime. Their banana fritters is heavenly. I will come back here again and again. And again.

Absolutely amazing. Fresh delicious food. Friendly service. Cant wait to go back and will be telling everyone I know to go.

I can't believe I have overlooked this lovely spot for so long. A short-ish menu of very tasty dishes, an adequate wine menu, and all served with a smile practically in the town centre. Bingo!

Wonderful place to be and the food is absolutely wonderful and very lovely staff to talk to 🎊🎉🎊🎉

We had such great dinner in the restaurant! The food was so tasty and the staffs were friendly. The environment is clean and cozy. Will definitely be their regular customer 😍😊 (highly recommend the cod, although all the dishes we had was great!)

Best toy shop Thai restaurant I've been to and they make to order if you give them notice a big thumb up for me keep up the good work

The food very delicious, staffs are very nice and the restaurant is very clean. Good place to be in, feel like home.

Food here are very nice, Decent price, friendly staff and good vibes

Delightful Thai restaurant with excellent cuisine. Particular favourites, Thai green curry, pork with black pepper, Pad Thai with prawns, egg fried rice, steamed Din Sum, Zhinga beer, etc. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Best Thai in Kingston. The seafood laksa was just a dream filled in a bowl. Loved it

Lovely place with amazing food. 3 of us went out tonight and shared lots of different dishes. The mixed starter and massage curry (they changed it for me to chicken) were amazing! It did not say it on the menu but we ordered fried bananas which were the best I have eaten in a long time

Great food and excellent service, the best around.

This place is a hidden treasure. Come here, be treated amazingly and eat some fabulous food. I wish I'd known about it sooner. So, so good. See you again. 😁

Top notch Thai food, family run. Lovely service. Homemade lemonade, fantastic Som Tam and Dom Yum. Highly recommended!

Unbelievably YUMMY! Honestly, the best thai taste we’ve been here in UK!

Lovely family run place. Their food is very authentic and they have great service. I'd recommend their Thai iced tea.

Good service, food and ambience. Would recommend. Staff was patient and friendly.

Ordered via deliveroo. The delivery times were really long so I asked the restaraunt if they could please send the food early, as I'm pregnant and very hungry! They called me to accommodate my request and the food was over 10 mins early. The quality of the food is fantastic, delicious, exactly what I needed and cannot recommend highly enough. The restaraunt called me afterwards to check everything was ok with the meal as well, their customer service is fantastic. What a great local restaraunt and extremely high quality food!

Friendly staff, delicious food and great prices - best Pad Thai in Kingston!

This is mine and my partners favourite place to eat. We try and come once a week. The best duck and calamari we've ever tasted. The staff are always happy to see us. There's always polite conversation. We don't understand why it's never packed. Definitely a hidden treasure

Service was great & quick! A really lovely lady took our order over the phone. Delicious chicken pad thai's. Beautiful presentation for a takeaway meal. Will definitely go back :) Thanks

I really liked the food and the friendly staff. We had vegetarian green curry, red curry and an aubergine dish with steamed rice. They all tasted great and portions were reasonable. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The decor is a bit dated but pleasant. We will definitely go there again.

The food is excellent. Well cooked and tasty. Well stocked dessert area with fruit, cake chocolate fountain etc. The downside on this visit was the rude, stroppy, clearly bored waiter. As this is 'serve yourself, all you can eat'there is very little 'waiting'do be done so his contempt for the customers and rudeness was mystifying. That said we would visit again in the hope he is no longer there.

My first time in there I enjoyed it, good food and atmosphere

I had a veggie pad Thai and a glass of white wine and they were both ok. I thought the ambiance was a bit run down.

They get young workers in on a 'Trial Shift' from around Brentford. This is an 8 hour unpaid shift, the worker isn't even allowed to keep tips. Get's paid with a coke at end of shift then moves on to the next young person.Happened to a lot of people in Brentford, do not give this resteraunt money.

A smart Thai restaurant offering authentic Thai cuisine which are beautifully presented. My first time here but not my last. Ideal for business lunches, a romantic meal for two or in my case a quiet lunch by myself. Family oriented so children welcomed.

Best food ever...Best Thai restaurant in Kingston

A very pleasant meal ! The food is delicious and the waiter is so kind and cute🥰（Strongly recommend the prawn green curry 😆so creamy)

Mid week price £16.99 for an all you can eat buffet. Food is hot refreshed often and a good varirty. The grill is very nice as are the sweets and dessert choices. Alcohol 8s not ovrr priced either and compsres favourably to pub prices.

Highly recommended. Great food and service.

Worst buffet I have ever been to. None of the food is hot, barely warm. All the lids are off, most of it was destroyed by other customers. As for desserts: I can make banana custard and buy awful value ice cream myself.. if you have almost £50 to spend on dinner & 2 soft drinks for 2 on a Saturday night, I would recommend taking your money elsewhere (also watch out for the lids on the rice as they can close unexpectedly whilst you are shoved out the way by the staff).

Food wasnt kept hot or even that warm as lids were kept ajar by serving spoons. Appears to us that the chicken satay was akin to the texture of crab sticks, almost artificial. Prawns were straight from the kitchen but like rubber, pointless having shells on so garlic couldn't be absorbed or tasted. Desserts were like rubber too. Pancakes for duck were separated by a customer using his hands and replacing some back to the steamer. Needless to say we can't recommend this place at all. Charge more and give us real food - if it seems to good to be true.... comes to mind!
