"We were visiting Harrogate for my fiancée 's birthday but unfortunately Haks (our favourite Chinese was closed for the week. I saw that the Cambridge Café had good feedback so we took a stroll up there. We got there at 6pm. There was a man and a woman inside who were obviously the owners and their kids were sat at a table eating. The door however had closed written on it and that they were only taking Just Eat orders. We walked back to our apartment, also passing another Chinese takeaway called Rice . I thought about ordering from the latter, but decided to get back and get a meal delivered from Cambridge Café. Firstly I thought the layout of the dishes being within subsections on the menu was cumbersome and silly. We ordered prawn crackers, prawn toast (they don 't do seaweed?! , spring rolls, noodles, egg fried rice, chicken curry and sweet and sour chicken. The prawn crackers are supposedly quality Vietnamese ones that, in reality taste like all the others we have had! I absolutely loved the prawn toast but my fiancée wasn 't a fan. They were chunky and flavoursome. Veggie spring rolls were bland and tasteless, noodles and rice were OK. The sweet and sour chicken was very nice. I found the chicken curry a bit weak, it tasted dumbed down. Overall it was a fairly average meal with the prawn toast for me being a surprise highlight. On reflection however we would not eat from there again as better alternatives are available."

"This is the best Thai restaurant nin the UK that i have come across. And i know authentic Thai food with the typical short cuts that the restauranteurs make. This is the real deal! This is not the first time I have been impressed with this restaurant. I visited the Chapel Allerton restaurant 7 years ago and was equally impressed. The food is brilliantly cooked by the owner/family who is himself Thai. The6 have a transparent kitchen. It is cooked from scratch to order. The ingredients are fresh and correct. This was perfect in every way. The seevice waa very very good. The orice was fair. Every mirsel and mouthful was delicious. It 8s now foing to be booked for eqxh visit to Leeds ir Harrogate. As aomeone who has soent a significant amount of time in Thailand, i can say thisnis equal if not superior to wha5 i have uad in Thailand. So very very good. So what could be improved? 1. Water needs to be put on the table as a matter of course. We requested this but it was forgotten. 2. When you have booked you should be ahown dirextly to your table not expected to wait to be seated and handed a menu. 3. The view of the street needs to be obsxured a bit nore as it isnt a food view to see pwople walking past and looming in as you eat. (On the side road). 4. A small scoop.of.ice cream and or chocolate and or digestive drink should be laid on as part of the end or fiven with the bill. Overall very very very impressive. I loved it. I will return. I highly recommend it."
