The best restaurants serving Asian food in England

We were in london unannounced and looking for a place to eat. I remember topjaw reviewing this and the noodles that everyone was raving about. I can only assume it’s changed ownership or given up! Firstly we were shown up a small staircase to a dirty looking room. The staff all sat around eating off one table whilst the others remain dirty, uncleared and with strange stains. One poor lad with limited English was running around the three tables taking orders from 3 different menus, rushing off mid sentence and returning later. When the food did arrive, it was inevitably wrong and quite nasty. All three tables got some fried rice dish. The rice was old, it was full of some kind of over cooked pork and was super spicy. We also all got some weird fried dumpling that was swimming in oil and had pork again in the middle. None of the tables had ordered anything of the like, and it quickly descended into farce. The poor lad didn’t know who had ordered what and from where, so in the end just gave up and said “pay what you want”. We felt sorry and paid for the items he had brought. At no stage did any of the other staff offer to help him, just sat there on their phones eating skewers and dropping the sticks on the floor. I can’t say anything positive I’m afraid. It didn’t look clean, service was awful and the food inedible.

Tenía el entrante de pasteles de pescado - los pasteles de pescado en sí eran realmente sosos, pero la salsa de cacahuete picante que mojaron en era encantador. Tenía un par de espinas de pescado grandes, pero no fue gran cosa. El rendang de ternera era súper sabroso y un verdadero placer - aunque el tamaño de las porciones era bastante pequeño. El arroz al vapor era insípido y había demasiado en comparación con el tamaño del rendang. El personal es realmente encantador, y el lugar tiene una sensación agradable. En general, ha sido lo suficientemente bueno como para tentarme a probar algunos de los otros platos, pero no me quedé impresionado. ¡Esta vez!

don't bother with the android app, it doesn't work, after 2 attempts taking 10 mins to complete my order for 6 people it crashed at the payment page, I called them and unbelievable attitude and unhelpful, can you believe you can't order over the phone, anyway, I tried 1 last time via there Web site to be told 5.45pm collect, it was finally ready at 6.30pm, 1.5hrs after ordering, I called again and got the same attitude "do you want your order or not" I was asked 🤷‍♂️ I should have cancelled as finding this dump is as difficult as ordering and then surprise surprise the food was dreadful, never never again, its been the most stressful take away I've ever ordered and possibly the worst.

One of the most authentic Thai takeaway in Newcastle and our go to on take away nights. We never mind waiting longer than usual as food is always spot on but tonight was such a disappointment. Ordered the usual king prawn fried rice, thai fish cakes, peanut sauce and spicy prawn crackers. King prawn fried rice usually my favourite but it was so spicy I could not eat it, such a huge disappointment, especially when this is normally a superb dish. Prawn crackers were also unfortunately stale. Not sure if there's been a change in ownership or chef but PLEASE BRING BACK THE THAI CHANG WE KNOW! - last order prawn crackers were also stale however they replaced them. Staff are always kind and apologetic fr long wait abd always send a box of chocolates but this time no apology could make up fr the bad food. We've lived over the world and in the small area of North Tyneside we found this amazing authentic Thai - so upset it seems to have gone downhill!

Great service , friendly and very efficient , and the food absolutely top drawer , if in blackpool you must give this wonderful restaurant a visit , also the decor and surroundings superb

Sin pretensiones Vietnamita cafetería - restaurante en el mercado de Surrey Street, Croydon, sur de Londres, a pocas puertas de The Dog & Bull. Comida sabrosa. Valor decente. Dale una oportunidad. Volveré por más y descubriré qué es el 'Té de burbujas'.

This one is good still. Good food good price. Lunch time deal is good but could be better with more options. Would recommend.

Very nice people to deal with. Great tasty food. Will definitely go back. Thank you for all your help.

This place got fined, and prosecuted for serious offences, Now it's even better I went back and got a burger and chips it was hot tasty and fresh well done for the health and safety standards improvements

Increíblemente bueno Banh Mi. Todo en el sándwich se equilibraba para crear algo maravilloso. El café vietnamita también fue increíble! ¡Por favor inténtalo aquí!

I have bought Samosa’s and Pakora here on many occasions now and have no complaints at all. Definitely some of the better tasting Samosa’s and Pakora I’ve had around Slough although they obviously either buy from more than one source (or have different chefs) as the quality varies on occasions, but either way, not to the point of being unhappy with them. Seems to be a popular place amongst the locals which is a good sign but is let down in my rating by the fact that the local FSA rating is a poor 2 therefore highlighting areas of concern. Based on food alone, I’d happily give 4 but would need to check out the wider menu for a 5.

I can't praise tasty wok enough. We have been having our meals from there for some years now and it has always been the best tasting food great portions great flavours and fantastic staff. We won't order from anyone else no more. Keep it up Tasty wok

Nice bar just a couple of minutes walk from Dalston Kingsland station, with a rooftop terrace that is lovely in good weather. There's a decent cocktail menu with prices that are pretty standard for London these days. I ordered a Watermelon Martini, for some reason the barman made (and charged me for) two, I wasn't complaining at the time but my head was the following day, it was such a nice cocktail though. Negatives were that it was early on a Saturday evening and they'd already run out of Prosecco when we wanted a bottle or two for the table, not the end of the world as we were able to get a rosé instead. Also the rooftop is at the top of a hotel (not well signed, you had to take a lift up to the 5th floor and then follow the corridor along) and for toilets you had to go back downstairs.

The kebab range was absolutely delicious. The chicken shinwari curry was one of the best curries I have ever tried. The staff were also very friendly definitely my new go to apot for curry.
