Speedboat Bar 30 Rupert Street, London W1D 6DL

"I took two friends visiting London for lunch and we loved it! The food is super authentic, and the waitress who served us was not only nice but also very funny! The prawn ceviche was spectacular although very spicy! The noddles and sweetcorn fritters are a must on your order if you go. Highly recommended!"

"Great Thai restaurant, producing really authentic tasting, spicy food. The decor is a nod to Thailand and feels like a slight escape from London. Some innovative cocktails on offer, I really enjoyed the Frozen beer with ginger which was really refreshing - and needed to cool down the mouth from the fiery drunken noodles, which was my favourite dish."

"Pleasant lunch! Happy to see an authentic, thai, hawker styled restaurant in the middle of China Town. Very delighted with the tastes of the dishes. I wish the menu was a tad bit more expansive. Special shout-out to the amazing cocktails! Don’t miss those.."

"We came here for a mid week dinner but we were disappointed with the food. We shared the chicken matches with green mango kerabu salad (good flavour but small portion for £10), minced beef with holy basil (super salty and didn't have the right balance of chilli and basil) and the drunken noodles with beef and seafood (also way too salty). I am hoping it's just teething issues with the food since it's new but I won't be back for a while. The positive here is that staff were generally really friendly and our waiter was helpful."

"We had a great night here and received 50% off food for their soft launch - I do find some of the low reviews they've received are unfair since the whole premise of a soft launch is so they can work on getting it right! Anyway, I enjoyed my two dishes (the beef and special rice) but my friends found one of their dishes a little underwhelming hence the 4 stars. The staff were lovely and energetic even though you could see how rushed off their feet they were! I do think the chicken wings starter should state that it's served cold as we found it quite strange. Will hopefully be able to try the King Colada when we go back (they'd run out) but overall it was a good evening."
