5 out of 5 for everything. Service was impeccable—quick, attentive, and friendly. Clean and bright, though tables are quite close together. Toilets were clean, which is always a plus. Food was amazing. The Thom Ka soup was rich and flavorful, with a portion so generous it could easily be shared between two. Everything tasted home-cooked, with a comforting, authentic feel. Reasonably priced for the quality. Parking can be tricky, as it’s on a busy road. Park behind the restaurant around the residential area with limited spaces, but absolutely worth the visit. Will definitely come again and won’t hesitate to bring others. Probably need to book if there’s a lot of you and it’s an occasion.
Great, authentic food at an affordable price. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Excellent service every time.
I was deeply disappointed when the market stall closed down. So, when I heard they had opened a shop, I knew I had to check it out. The food was fantastic, and the service was exceptional. As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciated how accommodating they were in guiding me through gluten-free options. I highly recommend this place and will absolutely be returning!
We had a late lunch here after looking at reviews on Google, the food was delicious and the flavours amazing. Very quick service and totally authentic atmosphere. Shame they are not licensed for alcohol but don't let this put you off. Small and intimate, absolutely loved it and wished I lived closer as would eat here weekly if I could.
Wow! What an amazing flavour filled package of joy. I visited Hong Thai for takeout and they sealed my food up carefully for my short walk home. You won’t be left hungry just pure joy. This is now my new local lunch spot in Manchester see you all there!
The best thai food in Manchester. Lily and her staff are always warm and welcoming to guests. Love their hospitality. Tasty, reasonably priced, and large portion sizes. All the starters are to die for. My favorite go to dish is Nasi goreng with prawns.
Very authentic food from Hong Kong and Thailand. Having travelled to both countries before, this is a restaurant to recommend!! Very friendly staff and efficient in food service. Good system in seating customers and reasonable wait time. Perfect prices and decent portions. We had Special Tom Kha with prawns and chicken, Beef Yellow Curry, Hong Kong Cuttle fish cake and Thai fish cake, vegetable spring rolls and satay chicken skewers, accompanied drinks were tricolour Thai jelly coconut drink. Delicious!
The food was FABULOUS, true home cooked, delicious, Thai food. I felt like I was back in Thailand! Its also a nice price, and I'd say one of the nicest Thai restaurants in the North West. Highly recommended! We don't usually get starters, but the starters were incredible too and I'm so glad we did. They were oozing with taste, everything just tasted amazing. An explosion of taste! Extremely affordable as well for the city, this meal cost HALF the price of most other similar restaurants.
