The 48 in Swindon

We had our first meal at "The 48" and it was fantastic! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were super friendly, making us feel very welcome. The menu has a great variety, but we especially recommend trying the Duck Tamarind and Beef Yakisoba – both were amazing! As a bonus, we got a free drink to celebrate the restaurant's 1st birthday. Great place, and we’ll definitely be coming back soon

First visit. Fantastic place. Delicious food and wonderful, friendly service. Highly recommended the Mongolian cripsy chicken and Thai cripsy beef.

What a fantastic place! We were so glad that we manage to get a table. We just moved to this area and after 3 days of hard work moving our stuff into our new home, we were so looking forward to have our first meal out! The Duck Tamarind, Korean BBQ Chicken Wings, Fish Sambal & Broccoli with coconut rice... OMG, absolutely delicious.Compliments to the Chefs and lovely staffs and Anjana, so warm and welcoming, made our evening just right! Great selection of music too.👌🏽❤️ Definitely going to visit again. Thank you 48! See you soon, Penny & Tim😊

Nice music, great service, amazing food - perfect for meal with partner or with family / friends, lovely starters and main courses with super friendly staff

High quality food. Tasted amazing and a great mix of different Asian dishes. Highly recommend the goat curry and the Mongolian chicken.

Fantastic tasty food and wonderful service. The pad Thai was delicious and despite being packed into a small bowl (as reviewed in a previous review) once tipped out onto a plate there was plenty! All the dishes were delicious - this place is an absolute gem. Highly recommended.

Wow. Was the best restaurant I have been too. I went last night with my mate for his birthday after someone recommended the restaurant. The food was just simply incredible, never tasted food like it. More people need to attend and experience what we experienced.

Booked 'the 48' for our badminton award/social night and we were not disappointed. There were 20 of us and we were given our own function room upstairs, that could have fitted more. The food was so tasty and affordable considering it is such good quality. It felt like we had our own waiter for the evening, who learned our names very quickly as they kindly offered to do the bills individually (as splitting the bill at the end is always a nightmare for large groups), and nothing was to much bother. Thank you Ravi and your team for a fun relaxed evening!

If I could I’ll give 10 stars!!! The most delicious pan Asian food in Swindon. If you love sharing dishes you have to come to The 48. Good atmosphere and friendly staffs.

Another wonderful Dinner at The 48. After a sporting boys night out , we went to The 48 for dinner .. lovely ambience , friendly staff and amazing innovative dishes . Lovely every bit of it !

First visit and was pleasantly surprised how good this restaurant is , the 48 items on the menu all sounded great and the 8 that we had between four of us were brilliant, will definately visit again

Great food and great service, loved it. It was a little busy so the wait for food was 40 minutes but this was explained in advance and not a problem.

Amazing flavours, freshly cooked, piping hot food. Empty plates all round. Great selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes too. Attentive and friendly service.

You must try The 48, this was our first visit with a group of friends. We had great service from really friendly staff, the food was freshly cooked and lots of choice and comes in a selection of small plates which is great for sharing. Please ignore the reviews that grumble about this, it works! Yakisoba noodles with tofu were amazing, as was the Goat curry, Thai green curry and Pad Thai, just go you won’t be disappointed.

Brilliant, new and inspired, friendly warm hearted place to while away a relaxed evening. Fantastic food, clearly cooked fresh with passion and love. Will definitely be going back

We came for lunch and we will be back. Perfect portion sizes and a lovely choice of food - very different for Swindon. We had the vegetable teriyaki and the Mongolian crispy chicken, both of which were delicious. Then we had the fish Sambal and goat curry. Mouth wateringly lovely. Desserts were amazing. The set Thai custard with crystallised mango is utterly gorgeous, as is the coconut posset. Warm, friendly service and good drinks menu. Brill.

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great. We had a selection of starters and then curries - the portions are quite small but we expected that. It reminded us of the Mowgli chain of restaurants for food and quality. Will definitely be back. The only downside was that the men were disappointed that you had no draughty beer 🙁

The 48 is a ‘Must-Try’ place, whether you are a localite or a traveler. My friend recommended, so I went there with my family while travelling last weekend. Firstly, I was delighted with the ambience and then by the warm welcome by staff. I’d say the Menu has been carefully crafted with care. The best part is the Food; it was authentic, delicious, reasonably priced and we enjoyed every bit of it. Luckily we went for an early dinner, else I’d highly recommend advance reservation. There’s ample parking near the restaurant, so not to worry.

Absolutely gawjus food! Food was well presented service excellent the staff were friendly and accommodating. Make sure you book a table as it gets busy.

The atmosphere was good but I must admit the portion was so small, the taste was good. I ordered Pad Thai and I expected to came in the plate rather than in a small bowl. I believe we do not serve Pad Thai in the small bowl.

Lovely restaurant but stupidly priced starters for quantity - mango and chilli prawn starter £8 for 4 prawns. Pad Thai was tasty. Service was good but I won’t return because of prices and lacking portion sizes.

Awesome and Excellent choices of food. It’s very rare to see pan Asian cuisine and “The 48” is spot on with their food menu, simple yet you still get wide range of choices . We loved it , you will never be disappointed !!

This place has got it perfectly. Food - simple menu with great choices. The food was exceptional. Full of flavour and spice. Best Asian food I’ve had in the uk. Service - again excellent. Slight misunderstanding with our order which was perfectly handled by the staff who were warm and friendly. I think this is an absolute gem. We will certainly be back.

This was our fourth time eating at 48 and, despite being great to start with, it has only got better and better each time. The whole operation seems to have really hit its stride now, the food is consistently excellent and the front of house service ties in with the kitchen perfectly. Some dishes are absolute must-order, the Duck Tamarind, Tofu Yakisoba, Char Siu pork Ribs and Fish Sambal are just amazing, but there are so many excellent dishes you really can't go wrong. Also a mention for the wine list, it's much better than many similar restaurants. Our most recent visit was on a very cold, middle of January evening, so it was great to see the restaurant packed. Our reserved table was the only empty one when we first walked in. This restaurant thoroughly deserves its success.

We enjoyed fantastic food and hospitality at The 48. The goat curry and fish sambal were excellent (yes they are spicy…we even asked for them to be hotter!!) :D The food was served in a tapas style of small plates with a lovely friendly smile from the waiting staff. We are certainly looking forward to coming back.
