“I took my son out for the buffet all you can eat meal yesterday (Sunday 7th August 2022) His birthday is on the 9th so i did some research into all you can eat buffet restaurants in the area and a google search came up with Thai Orchid. The reviews were excellent so i decided it would be the perfect place for us to try. WOW, it was a real revelation, an Aladdin's cave of Thai art, elephants and food. Immediately you are hit with a real cacophony of amazing aromas and an amazing selection of food delights waiting to be enjoyed. Our waiter was a real character, he took us up to "business class", which was upstairs. There was lots to choose from and all the available space was well utilised. However, the choice wasn't thankfully overwhelming, i think there was about 50 dishes from starters to mains to choose from. We chose a plate of starters each and our waiter was on hand to take several pictures of us with our food, a nice touch. We returned to business class to find that this part of the restaurant was filling up nicely. We ate our starters which were a real treat to start the proceedings. My son and i needed a well earned breather before heading down for our next plateful. We are real foodies so discussion was how good the food was. We went back downstairs and the restaurant was full now. There wasn't an empty seat in sight. This is a really good indication of how good a restaurant is in my opinion. I got talking to a few people and they were there for the first time also. We all agreed how good it was. We ate so much amazing and flavourful food it was unbelievable. I would recommend a bowl of the thick satay sauce, which was loaded with nuts, lemongrass and of course coconut milk, an amazing accompaniment to lots of the dishes or just to serve as a dip for the starters. We wished we could have taken a container of this home but alas not. Our waiter took more pictures of us eating, again another nice touch. I didn't mention, all the tables are glass topped with the most amazing wooden carvings underneath. Certainly lots to discuss while we were there and lots to discuss afterwards and definitely an all you can eat buffet experience to be savoured for a long time to come. I would say personally that we have filtered out a lot of truly awful all you can eat buffets, but this may now have taken the new crown for us. My son and i were literally gobsmacked by the outstanding appearance of everything, the décor, the food and of course the friendliness of our waiter. My son said I'd chosen an amazing location and restaurant and we both agreed we will be returning again and again and possibly again. Thai Orchid also offer a menu service and now also a take away service, both of which I'm sure are just as good. There will always be people who have good and bad experiences and people whose taste expectations dont match the restaurant and yes you have to go there to find out but i speak for myself as well as my son when we say that this was a truly unique all you can eat buffet easily within reach locally. We have nothing bad to say at all, however the only time for the buffet is 1200-1430 on a Sunday, which for some might be too early, but judging on how rammed the restaurant was it certainly didn't put anyone off and at £20 per person was excellent value. The other great thing is the restaurant is located opposite the Thames at Maidenhead so you have a nice place to walk off a full tummy afterwards. This is a completely genuine review, written without bias. I write from my personal experience and thought it was that good, i should let everyone else know too how good it is too. I guess if you don't like or appreciate Thai cuisine then this isn't for you, but if like my son and i and all of the other happy customers yesterday we loved it. Thank you Thai Orchid, we will most definitely see you again”

“Superb Pad Thai here and Chicken Satay! Traditional tastes and I recommend the Pad Thai spicy as it’s very on point from Northern Thailand tastes!”

“We had a wonderful dinner here, incredible food, lovely authentic and relaxed atmosphere and fantastic efficient and friendly service. Enjoyed every minute and would highly recommend. Thank you to the team for taking such good care of us.”

“Other One of my favourite Thai restaurants in London. An absolute gem! The food is fresh, flavourful and good portioned , service super friendly and very helpful Will definitely come back again soon. I went there with my friend again they now have a new menu. Omg!!! So so good.”

“The staff were SO kind and welcoming! They kept checking up to make sure everything was okay. I got the green curry with soy protein and coconut rice, and it was exceptional.”

“Popped in here by chance and glad I did! Was probably the best Thai I’ve ever had. Tom Kha Kai soup was amazing and the best stir fried chicken with cashew. Definitely bringing my friends and family here”

“Really loved it at Mortar + Pestle, delicious food and good value (mains are around £10-15). We enjoyed piping hot vegetable spring rolls (though an even number to share would have been better), a Tom yum prawn noodle soup, and a Thai green prawn curry. All the prawns come shelled which is great, but the curry portion was rather small and doesn’t come with rice - that is £3 extra. The staff advised this upfront as I was ordering, which was nice. We came for a quick bite to eat and a long catch-up, so didn’t try much else but the menu was extensive and I definitely want to return and order heaps more! What we did order was very flavoursome, and packed with juicy prawns and fresh vegetables.”

“The food was delicious and tasty, you could tell it was freshly prepared, spices were authentic. They dont sell alcohol but I can live with that. I will definitely go back 100%. Staff was friendly and informative.”

“Lovely meal again in this little gem. Super service, food was tasty and quick to arrive over we had decided what we wanted from the extensive menu. Particularly enjoyed the tilapia in a sweet spicy peanut sauce and the soft shell crab special. Good support and options for our vegetarian memer of the party.”

“Such wonderful place, in love with the decoration, very cozy, friendly staff, very clean, and you can bring your own drinks!! I definitely will come back”

“We love Roti and fried chicken !!! Thai flavour with creativity. The only thing we are not a fan so much is the curry base, far TOO SWEET. It kind of shadow the good mixing fresh spices. Overall we are happy with their creation and will come back to try more.”

“Great Thai restaurant in an airy setting. Consistent quality and service. The sharing platter is always a treat - succulent chicken satay and the fish cakes have a nice hint of ginger. Nice level of heat to the spicy dishes.”

“This place has some delicious and authentic Thai food. The person who I was with is born and raised in Thailand and can verify this... as I wouldn't have know any better! Great beer selection and chilled atmosphere too!”

“I had no idea how to order from this place, but the employees were so kind and welcoming I felt my imposter syndrome melt away. Their suggestions were incredibly helpful and the food was delicious, 5/5 customer service and food. Thank you!!”

“Always deliciously tasty noodles and a very friendly atmosphere. Our waiter, Anik was especially helpful this evening. Love coming here and so happy there is a Rosa's Thai in my neighbourhood!”

“It’s was so good I ended up repeating! The food has great flavor and appearance, service is super welcoming, nice and fast and the menu really diverse! The space is cozy and clean, really nice to be alone, with friends or on a date! :)”

“We travelled from Suffolk to eat here after seeing the online reviews and they didn't disappoint at all. Food was exquisite, service was excellent, polite happy waiting staff who had the time to chat and help.”

“I love Thai food but rarely enjoy it because either it isn't authentic or it's freaking expensive. This place makes me enjoy Thai food the way I like it - Authentic and Great value for money. The food is made and served by a great bunch of women from Thailand. They cook most food to order and they taste so authentic. We ordered: Spring rolls (£3.50) - which were okay not superb but okay. Prawn (£5.50) and Chicken (£5.00) Pad Thai which were so amazingly tasty and perfect quantity. Even the kids enjoyed eating them. Prawn Green curry with rice (£5.50) - yummy and wish it had a bit more Of the gravy as it want enough for the rice provided. Finished off with a milkshake (£2.50) - reminded me of the shakes you get in Asia. Tasty! The staff are amazing and friendly. They don't talk much but when they do they are polite and smiling. The seating is limited as they share a market. Located well. Parking is available right outside this market at £1.30 cash only for an hour. Overall I'm glad I found this stall. A bit away from Dartford but if I'm in Gravesend or craving for a nice Thai food, I know where to go!”

“Had a great dinner at Koko Thai on Friday night. Food and service were excellent. And the chef / host was fantastic! He was so passionate and energetic and friendly. It really made for a great evening. Highly recommended”

“What a find! This place was exceptional! We went as a group of 15 pre booked for a birthday, we seemed to have our own waiter, ready to take drinks orders at a moment's notice, but so quiet in the background they didn't seem to be too much attention, and were allowed to get on with our meal. The food was absolutely delicious. I've not had Thai for a long time but it's now my favourite. Everything was plated and served beautifully, the cocktails came quickly, the service was amazing, the staff. And freshness of food was perfect. Can't believe I haven't visited before. Thank you to all the staff at the Limehouse Thai for a wonderful evening, and great food. We will see you again and again....”

“Very personal service. Excellent food! Even gave a children's plate which is the first time I've seen a restaurant do that. Amazing. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely delicious. The food was really nice and the staff were so friendly. If we lived nearer we would visit all the time. They have an excellent selection of gluten free curries. I had a gluten free tom kha and long song creamy peanut curry, both of which were fab. Thanks for accommodating us late and at short notice. A+++++”

“Very good food - excellent quick service. Well done to the team.”

“Brilliant service. Delicious green Thai curry and superb drunken noodles. Can’t wait to return!”

“What a wonderful experience. Every dish was so flavoursome & had fresh ingredients. The staff was so attentive & welcoming- great service, lovely ambience & we will definitely be back. Lil upset no mango stickrice but overall great experience.”
