Description of Thai on the River

All the people who loved Thai on the River before, for its stunning view, wonderful food and smart service, will love it even better now, if that's possible. A move of location has created a more welcoming entry and reception area, a better use of internal space with new decor and a terrific riverside conservatory. Beautiful silks and natural wood panelling adorn the walls, while the tables are set with white linen. The Thai food is just as good as it always was. Try starter of classic tod mun plaa, main course of a curry with choice of protein, or one of the superb fish dishes like whole steamed sea bass with lemon, chillies and spring onions, and of course pad thai. Service is still fleet and friendly.

Additional information for Thai on the River

Yet another cuisine that is begging to be shared among friends or served in irresistible tidbits to partying horde, Thai cuisine is rarely better served than here at Thai on the River. The river views are really lovely and make this a 'destination' restaurant, a special setting for your event. The decor and ambience are smart and grownup but still relaxed. The private area seats up to 50, but we can imagine hiring the entire venue for a very special launch or reception. Menus include dishes like kanom jeeb dumplings, fried salmon fillets with tamarind, chillies and cashews, spiced shredded green papaya with shrimp, and pad thai. The wines are well-suited to the spicing.

Thai on the River Reviews

KS reviewed Thai on the River on 21/12/2008

Thai on the river was a nice place for a meal but we could not sit close to the window which was a shame and the back ground music was so enought to make one fall asleep.

AS USUAL FOOD AND SERVICE VERY GOOD

anon reviewed Thai on the River on 08/01/2009

Lovely food, would be expensive with out offer. Need to get a proper coffee machine! service a little slow even though restaurant fairly empty.

LS reviewed Thai on the River on 03/01/2009

Thai on the River has a very nice and quiet atmosphere. However, we found the service quiet slow. As we were a table of 7 people I would recommend more this restaurant for a romantic dinner.

GW reviewed Thai on the River on 10/12/2008

We had a great time and the food and service were good enough for us to recommend to friends.
we would definitely go back again!

Thai on the River, the food was good, couldn't understand why they couldn't leave the jug of water on the table? One of our party was in from the States and did not understand the menu, the waitress who herself had limited english came into her own and we were very impressed with that. will visit again soon

Good value for money with Top table deal - pleasant and easy but nothing to set the world on fire

AM reviewed Thai on the River on 22/12/2008

I booked a table of 8 and despite 4 people dropping out at the last minute, we were seated rather quickly and with out any hassle!

The service was rather slow, and it seemed as though they didn't have enough staff, despite the fact that the restaurant wasn't anywhere near busy!

The food was plentiful, delicious and excellent value for money. The cocktails were also very nice and my party left with a very full belly and rather tipsy at the end of the night.

I would definitely book again!!!

HO reviewed Thai on the River on 10/12/2008

Thai on the River did not confirm my booking until less than an hour before my reservation, but I had only booked it 7 hours before...so that may have been the reason. A bit out of the way and if I didn't get the 50% off food, I'm unsure I would go back, but it was lovely food.

AM reviewed Thai on the River on 03/01/2009

The service here was, as always, impeccable. The venue is very pleasant - if a little chilly on the terrace - if you feel the cold ask for a table in the main restaurant. The food is delicious and beautifully presented.

DF reviewed Thai on the River on 13/12/2008

I've been to Thai on the River on a number of occasions and as always I am happy with the service and the meal.

LB reviewed Thai on the River on 12/12/2008
