"Our son is studying at UWE and lives five minutes walk from here. We visited over the weekend to celebrate his delayed degree results. We decided we wanted a Thai meal and he suggested Everyday Thai having been recommended it by housemates. We booked on Friday. Saturday lunchtime I had a call to confirm my booking. How glad I was that we had booked. I couldn't believe that somewhere tucked away in Fishponds could be so busy! The entrance was like bees round a honey pot but our host, Pickky, had everything under control and we were soon seated and drinks ordered. Such a lot of tasty choices on the menu. What to choose. We settled on the Tapas selection for starters: calamari, crispy vegetables and spring rolls. For mains we chose chicken with cashew nuts, king prawn with cashew nuts and pad Thai. Whilst we waited we watched moped delivery drivers arriving and leaving, all handled smoothly and meals being served expertly to a table of eight and a table of twelve, as well as numerous take away collections. Our starters arrived, exquisitely presented how did they carve a carrot into a flower. Very tasty! The calamari was perfect. Sometimes some restaurants can over cook it and it can be rubbery. The vegetables were excellent. Peppers, courgettes, mushrooms, even cauliflower! Hats off to the chefs. My son doesn't care much for cauliflower but was impressed with the taste. The food was all hot We were hungry and even ate the shredded carrot and cabbage dressing, although it was difficult to dip it in the sauce, partly because we'd devoured so much of it! We waited in anticipation for our mains. We commented that we should have ordered some prawn crackers. As if reading our minds, our waiter came over to apologise for the wait and bringing some complimentary prawn crackers! Most welcome. The mains arrived and they didn't disappoint. Tasty and plentiful. A real treat! All too often in oriental restaurants and takeaways the main course meat or fish has little vegetable accompaniment but not so with ours. Equally, dishes with cashew nuts can sometimes have me looking for the cashews. Definitely not the case. Plenty of prawns and chicken. Plenty of vegetables. Plenty of rice. Plenty of pleasant conversation. Plenty of activity still in the kitchen and front of house! All in all a really nice meal, really nice company, really nice staff, a really nice restaurant and a really nice price!"

"Having tried and failed to order takeaway Thai on outskirts of town (1 hour waiting time at Thai Station which we'd have spent in their car park) looked up alternatives on Trip Advisor which led us here. Don't be put off by what looks like a rather down at heel exterior. Inside, although not flashy, you'll find an unpretentious little Thai eaterie with immaculate loo (spacious disabled access which was important to us) and stellar service. Lovely food, huge portions, fantastic value. We will return. We had the pork ribs, sesame chicken toast, peanut parcels, chicken satay, fish cakes, followed by Tom Yum soup; one with prawns and the other with chicken. Although we only ordered tap water this didn't mean we were served any less politely and carefully as if we hag ordered champagne, which is really refreshing and very unusual. Our large chilled bottle of tap water arrived promptly and was replaced repeatedly without prompting. Smiling, unobtrusive yet friendly and polite service was given by every single member of staff, again, really appreciated. Portions honestly four times the size expected. We ordered a selection of starters and in some (most) places these are doll sized so we ordered a mixture. Here they were all full portion size for two people even if meant to be a starter for one! The chicken satay starter for example was equivalent to one or two chicken breasts. Enormous! Succulent marinated chicken and lovely warm peanut sauce. Pork roast ribs also huge and tasty and we appreciated the warm water finger bowl. The rest of the food followed this good start in both size and quality. Recommended"
