"After several successful visits over the last year or so, tonight was a disappointment and bordering on poor rather than average, so I am being generous with 3 stars. The food was tasty enough and the wine very drinkable. When we arrived the restaurant was full and despite reserving a table well in advance, we were given what must have been the worst table in the place. If it wasn't for the fact that we were hungry and were on a time limit we would have walked. The table was next to the toilet, opposite a store cupboard, had a view of a rubbish bin and was also next to the washing up room with clattering dishes all night. Service was surly to say the least, one waitress was OK the other was rude, dismissive and clearly didn't want to be there. Sadly, the overall experience tonight means that we won't return and will look next time towards Clapham Junction where we know there are some Thai restaurants that actually want your custom. I seriously considered removing the added automatic 12.5% service charge from the bill but couldn't be bothered with the hassle so just paid up and left. Disappointing in the extreme!"

Simple, bland and uninspiring food seemingly made without much love and served in a similar manner. In no rush to return which is a shame because it's probably the best of the local offerring

This was a really great restaurant but sadly not as good as it once was. Service was poor, orders were mixed up and the cost is much more than it is worth. Food is still high quality but a little gem is no longer sparkling.

Got a seat next to a heater, really great service and the food was excellent. Only downside was the cocktails which either didn’t have enough alcohol or were probably far too diluted. Would definitely visit again minus the cocktails!

I have been going here for years and of the dishes I have tried, most have been delicious and full of flavour. My favourites are the chicken laksa and massaman beef curry. I would recommend this place. The portions are big and the price is fair for the area. View menu

I flooded the bathroom owing to the liberal use of a powerful tap, I got a sinking feeling it may have been my fault but then remember the basics of fluid dynamics and plumbing theory , what comes out, must go down. I won't slip up and make the same mistake again!

A real shame as it's my local Thai and has substantially gone downhill. Both the red and panang curries were filled with too much coconut milk lacking flavour. The beef was dry and over cooked. I have lived here for 14 years and that was definitely not the case before.

I would recommend not ordering online turned up for my order and they hadn’t even turned on their tablet so hadn’t never recorded it. With restaurant and Deliveroo they have spread themselves too thin and unfortunately customer service has dropped. Shame been coming here for years and one never go back. View menu

I am seriously taken aback when I see some positive reviews on this restaurant the food is all microwaved or pre prepared, totally lacks flavour and is overpriced. It has been like that for a few years now and when I have it a new chance last week I wish I had not. If you have no clue about the beautiful flavours of honest Thai food, by all means go and have some overpriced rice, but if you like and understand Thai, don’t even consider it! If I could give zero, I would.

Being new to the area we needed somewhere to have a local meal and our preferred option had fallen through, after checking out the menu online we decided to try Cafe Amaranth, and it surpassed all expectations. First of all, we both ordered dishes with chicken and unlike those restaurants that will only put 2 or 3 pieces of meat in your main dish, both the stir fried noodles and the noodle soup had a considerable amount! Portions were also great for the price, in other Thai restaurants I have tried the portions have been small, which kept me away from Thai restaurants for quite some time, but now we have found this place we will definitely be going back. I had the Laksa noodle soup, and it w...
