Well. Before Covid this restaurant was the absolute bees knees, best Thai food this side of Khao Lak..... went a bit down hill after. BUT we thought we would give it a go after reading it had been taken over..... so went up to Norwich for the day purely for this reason, went in , stood by the desk for 10 mins..no one appeared..... then walked out, and ate somewhere else.

If I could rate it higher I would. The massages are the best I have had in this country, I love the authentic tasty food. The package deals are great, full body, followed by foot massage, then food in the restaurant - a lovely birthday treat- or any special occasion, or even just a treat for yourself 👌

Not particularly clean on entrance and toilets not very hygienic. Food was bland and tasteless and certainly didn’t bear any resemblance to the description on the menu. Probably the worst Thai food I’ve ever had. Rice was disgusting lump of glue in a bowl. Never again.

I have never been so disappointed in a food delivery ever. Having spent over thirty pounds for a meal for my wife and I. We eat out or in a lot, our preference being Thai. When the meal was delivered I was dismayed to open the starter of breaded chicken wings which came in a tin container, no salad , nothing and deep fried which you expect. But not to the point you can't eat them. Pad Thai prawn. Just noodles, three prawns and soy sauce. No seaseme seeds nothing. And the same with the crispy duck. Just overkilled duck with soy sauce. No spring onions, greens nothing. Again for thirty plus pounds don't waste your time nor money. Will certainly be spreading the word where not to go.

We travelled especially to Norwich (from London) to visit this place. Really wish we hadn't. We wanted to to come back to this restaurant for the steamed seabass with pineapple which we’d had the pleasure of experiencing in July when we stumbled across this restaurant. In July it was exceptional. After taking the order - the woman came back and advised that they had sold out of the steamed seabass but can offer deep fried seabass instead. Instead, we swapped for King Prawns in Tamarind Sauce. Starters were excellent as expected - satay chicken and fish cakes. Next came the prawns (4 in total). Deep fried, shell on, in batter, butterfly cut. On opening up the prawns, we noticed the poop shoot had not been cleaned and was intact. Discretely, we called the waiter over and explained the situation - he went into the kitchen and shown the chef the “dirty prawns” as he put it to us. The waiter talked to the manager and came over with a menu for something else instead - however we said no thanks and we'll just get the bill please. The bill arrived - and the waiter explained how he’d taken 25% off the bill for inconvenience but did not remove the cost of the prawn dish. This was rather gracious especially as they were running a 25% off all ala carte food items at the same time. In other words, they did nothing to rectify the poop shoot. I asked for the prawns to be removed from the bill as we’d not eaten them and as the restaurant had failed in their duty of care. The manager had different ideas! She told us, we didn’t complain about the poop shoot immediately when the food arrived and therefore it was our fault and she wouldn’t give us the refund for the offending dish. Ironically, I’d love to know how we can identify the poop shoot of prawns, battered, with shells on, in a tamarind sauce until we’d broken through the shell and attempted to remove the prawns from the shells. The manager eventually agreed to remove the item, from the bill - but not give any discount that every other customer was receiving and entitled to if they ordered ala carte (as we had). I insisted on receiving the discount - eventually the manager put £1.65 discount on bill and aggressive growled “next time, tell me before you start to eat any food if there’s a problem”. I requested the rest of the entitled discount be applied. Eventually she corrected the bill and screamed at me, shouting “I hope you never come back again and you will never be welcome back”. At which point she walked away in a temper. This restaurant has the ability to be something special but this manager with her abrupt and aggressive attitude to the customer ensures this place will never be a success unfortunately. This manager verbally shouted abuse at my partner and I in the restaurant in front of other guests - at which point I offered to call the point to intervene. We appreciate that there are some places in London where you pay to be abused by waiting staff for comic effect - but if we wanted that, we would have caught a tube to china town from our house and not driven 100 miles to eat here. We travelled over 100 miles specifically for this restaurant, after experiencing a truly wonderful meal in July after lockdown. We will never come back - I would encourage anyone to boycott this establishment until they remove this manager from her post.

Another eat out to help out treat. Okay, so this our 2nd in 3 days. Just doing our best! Truth is that this was my peace offering for working late. Table for 2 at 8pm on a glorious summer evening. The restaurant was heaving in a socially distanced way. We played safe with a set option. We were not disappointed. The staff were run off their feet but did their best to keep all tables happy. Unsurprisingly, service was slow but seemed not to bother anyone. We left at 10.15 trying to agree on our favourite dish. We couldn’t! For me is was the crispy beef!

Absolutely delicious We went during ‘eat out to help out’ and they were full and it was a long wait for food, about 1hr but I’ll just hope that isn’t the norm and will try it on a normal day too as it’s not normally so full in there.

I walk past here nearly everyday but had never got around to trying it out, finally decided to give it a go with the 'Eat Out to Help Out' deal. We booked earlier in the day, for early evening, and glad we did, as by 7:30 people were being turned away. We had a couple of appetisers, followed by mains with sides of rice and prawn crackers. All the food was great and came out in good time, piping hot. The staff were a little rushed, and could have done with an extra person, you could tell they weren't quite ready for how busy the new Mon - Wed deal was going to make them. However they were all really nice and outside table service was fine. We will definitely come back regardless of any deals in the future.

El servicio es muy lento, el piso está sucio y si te gusta escuchar bing bong cada vez que alguien entra y sale por la puerta, este es el lugar. . . . y me refiero en voz alta.La comida está bien y el sabor del curry panang de ternera era encantador, pero unas meras virutas de ternera y zanahoria arrugada y unas judías verdes para 13 eran realmente una buena relación calidad-precio, lo mejor de toda la comida fue el entrante para compartir.Para ser honesto, me decepcionó un poco, ya que pocas personas han dicho que está en el clavo.

Just across the road from John Lewis. Very handy. Their lunch menu has all the dishes you could hope for and more. The prices were cheaper than the dinner menu but we suspected the meals would be smaller as it was lunchtime and it was a smaller plateful but perfect for us. Our suspicions meant that we were happy to order starters which we don't normally have which again were delicious. The combination of starter and main were just right for our appetites. Chicken Satay, Vegetable Tempura and Pa Neang Chicken Curry - yum!. The only reason why there are not five 'blobs' are because of the price of the drinks. A normal size diet coke was £2.45, the small Tiger beer was £3.95. However, next time we're in Norwich we'll definitely go back

We had more than enough in fact very little room on the table to eat the food.

I was then going to leave a review about the food that myself and 4 friends had the same night as the people who left the last review .We also had the green curry that night .I never leave reviews as a rule .The green curry we had on the same night i would have to say it was one of the best currys ive had . And i have tryed near on every thai restaurant in the city of norwich and i would say that im a good judge . I have never had a bad meal here . If i was to have a guess the people which left this review below are the sort of people who just loves to moan and get there bill amended . Sorry to keep going on about these people but the food was lovely as it is everytime .I feel as if the review they left was very dishonest and very unfair , When the couple left they even short changed the bill by £10. .Hopefull the restaurant will ban these people for life .. john

The starters were OK, but nothing to write home about. The Green Curry, which both my wife and myself had, was watery, full of mainly hard green beans, crenulated carrots, insipid chicken and looked like it was an English Sunday dinner with leftover veg, scraped into dishwater and served up Monday as a Thai dish - it was truly awful and this is from a man married to an Asian lady who has spent a large part of his life working in the Far East and we're both serious foodies. It was also expensive for what it was. Very upset, especially since the waitress tried to defend the quality, rather than appreciating it was unacceptable and onpassing our viewpoint to the 'chef'...

Although quite busy, we still managed to get a table for four. Service was excellent throughout. Having had a lunch time menu we thought the evening meal would be of a similar size and we ordered starters. To be honest they were not needed as the mains were larger portions. My wife is a coeliac and allergic to chilli, but this wasn’t a problem and she had a very tasty starter and main. Would recommend this restaurant for lunch and evening meals.

They helped provide a suitable buffet style lunch over 2 sittings for a very reasonable price without reducing quality. They were very accommodating for members of our group that had various requirements and the staff were awesome. I have visited this place when its only a couple of us but to cater for around 200 in one lunchtime was great. We obviously planned it in advance and they were proactive in providing various options in the planning. Highly recommend this place for any size of party for lunch or dinner.

The Massaman was fine, however everything else was rather mediocre. Vegetables used were not authentic.Service was friendly if a little erratic (new staff?).

We are all Thai food lovers and keen to get started. We ordered drinks, prawn crackers and 2 starters to share between the four of us while we decided on the main courses. It was quite adequate. We each ordered different main courses, together with 1 rice, 1 noodle and 3 vegetable dishes to share. This again was most adequate. The plates and food was piping hot. The waitress was polite and attentive. Our only criticism was that the restaurant was a little on the cool side. Everywhere was clean throughout the restaurant and so too were the toilets upstairs.

Our Family booked here for supper after the John Lewis Customer evening last night as this restaurant is located just across the road from the store. Having read some good reviews on this site as well as from the Norfolk Magazine, we were looking forward to our meal here. Firstly I should say that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the food, all very well cooked and presented but it was the total lack of atmosphere and very few other diners that ruined the experience for us. Considering there were only a couple of tables in, the service was poor, they forgot to bring my second requested drink, took ages to bring the bill and just did not seem interested, no marks for Customer Service here....!!!!???? Even worse to go to the loo you have to climb up a spiral staircase and walk through a wide open space with half unpacked cardboard boxes and mess all over the place. The loos were in desperate need of refurbishment and the whole place looks like it could do with a facelift.

We ate here for the first time on Saturday evening. We were not disappointed by the food, which was authentic Thai; fragrant and multi-flavoured. One waitress was a bit frosty, otherwise the service was good. We will return!

My friends and I ate here the other night and it was a lovely meal. In particular the house special dishes of stir fried duck and stir fried pork belly were my personal favourites. Everyone loved their meals but I would say they were not quite as exquisite as my old favourite Lam Thai or Thailand Restaurant in Thorpe. Service started off very attentive but as the night went on it was difficult to get staff's attention as they were very busy serving other customers.

We fancied something flavoursome, exotic and fresh and the Tamarind Tree delivered. Good friendly service - We had some jasmine tea for 2 a massive pot for £4.50 plus they topped it up with water. But they also do an amazing array of fresh smoothies and juices so we had one of them too £2.60.

The food was good and the service excellent. The seating was comfortable. The atmosphere was a bit ordinary but pleasant enough. There were several vegetarian options but we would have liked to see a few more.

We started with steamed thai dumpling and squid tempura both of which were delicious. Following on we ordered crispy duck served on a bed of stir-fried spring greens with homemade tamarind sauce, stir fried chicken with cashew nuts and pad thai. The service was very good and the meal was excellent value. We will definitely be back!

Went to this restaurant for the first time recently with a group of 6. Because we all like to nibble we ordered the set menus and just shared it all. Every bit of it was well cooked, well flavoured and delicious. And there was masses of it!

I had the opportunity to visit this restaurant with a work colleague; it had been recommended to us as neither had been before. We had tempori vegetables and chicken satay for starters and both had Pad Thai for main course. The food was excellent and the service exemplary. I can thoroughly recommend this excellent restaurant as one of the best Thai restaurants I have been to outside Thailand.

Never had a proper Thai meal before and loved every bite. We had a selection of starters and I can recommend the sweetcorn cakes, very yummy, and I can't remember what they were called but basically a pork ball wrapped in a filo type pastry.

Walked in just before 6pm for a table for just for me! The lady was lovely, really helpful in helping me make my menu choice. Food arrived swiftly, tasted great and would happily come back with friends (although felt very comfortable/welcome as a lone diner)

After being to thailand earlier this year I can say that the food here is authentic. The red curry brought back fond memories of my holiday. If I am in the area for work again I will definitely make a stop here.

Recently discovered this place, have been twice for lunch in the past week and this is now my favourite Thai in the city. It was beautifully presented and delicious. Very good value at lunch time and the staff were lovely.

Recently went with family, myself and youngest son can't handle really spicy food, Lady advised on red thai curry and phanang curry, both were fabulous! Green thai curry was more spicy but that suited hubby and oldest son. Highly recommend

Had an excellent meal here with a friend after a day of walking around Norwich. The food is high quality, notably the hot and sour soup, which was unlike any other I've had in terms of freshness and flavour. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was cosy. Prices are a little on the higher side of the scale, but you definitely get what you pay for.

Do not be put off by all the silly road works outside, went today with my mum and daughter for lunch. Absolutely loved it! I had duck and chicken pad Thai, both delicious and mum had red Thai curry with rice. Reasonable prices excellent food. Really good service and very friendly staff! Very modern inside. They did have cocktail offers on too (but we passed as it was only lunchtime!)

Great location. Welcoming Staff. Menu a bit restrictive. The portion sizes are very small . Well presented . Restuarant clean and modern . Sadly my friend became ill during the meal, I was ill later. Over use of chilli . Dissappointing. Great smoothie.

This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The food was lovely and the service was quick. We had the sharing platter to start, which was tasty and ample for 2. I had the sweet and sour for main and my husband had stir fry garlic chilli beef; we shared a rice. The whole meal was delicious. The service was good and speedy. We also liked the atmosphere of the restaurant, it seemed quite relaxed.

It wasn't the most flavoursome, aromatic, authentic Thai food I have ever eaten. However it was fresh, fast, piping hot and well cooked.

Excellent value lunches allow the diner a good and realistic choice. The restaurant is very conveniently placed and it has a good atmosphere. Service is sometimes a bit slow but attentive nonetheless.

Thai food is one of our favorites and often in the U.K. Thai restaurants do not have that authentic taste. This place does, the dishes are full of flavour and they also have the right level of spice, not dumbed-down. We took our teenage sons and they very much enjoyed it too. The service was excellent from attentive staff.

The food was good , the staff and service I couldn't fault , the ambience and decor of the restaurant is lovely , the toilets were clean and fresh , there is a good size carpark with a few more spaces to the rear of the building , I would say the price is a little bit more than I would like to pay but it seems everywhere else is similar in price nowadays , I will have more meals here as overall it was a good venture out 👍👍👍

Fantastic cheese and fruit scones! We cannot have enough of them. Friendly service. You can also get the scones at the market in Norwich or at a kiosk in the cathedral precinct.
