"Having not celebrated Valentines Day in well over 10 years, I wanted to go to one of my favourite restaurants given its one of the few independants in the town, I was a regular visitor The service was absolutely abismal I was constantly chasing the servers who all were stressed and having constant disagreements with each other. I don't know how many times I chased on our food and I spent the whole evening constantly on edge instead of having a relaxed, romantic evening with my boyfriend. Drinks took 45 minutes and then there was a very long wait for any food. We only had prawn crackers, one starter between the two of us and two mains. We arrived at 7 and didn't leave until 9.30pm at least. The food was fine although my partners dish was overly spicy when it wasn't supposed to be. The starter of Satay Chicken was dry, the chicken definitely overcooked. What should have been a lovely evening was ruined and I found myself apologising to my other half for what happened even though it wasn't my fault. The one part of the service that was quick was getting the bill mind which is plain cheeky no attempt to even provide any kind of discount which I expected for poor service. Many other people were complaining that evening as well a complete shambles. Will definitely think twice about setting foot in the Lime Leaf again."

This long-standing restaurant located at the top of Basingstoke town offers a variety of delightful dishes. The service is excellent and the food is expertly prepared. Suitable for vegetarians.

Perfect evening, we attended as a group of 16 for a work meal and they were fantastic! We had our own room upstairs and couldn't of done more for us and the food was fantastic! We'll definitely be back! :

The service at this restaurant was very disappointing, as we were virtually neglected for a long time. We had almost finished our main course before receiving the necessary cutlery. The prawn crackers were burnt, although we were not charged for them. The spring rolls were decent, and the Thai beer was enjoyable.

Small and cosy restaurant in the middle of the town centre with extraordinary food and great staff, who were even advising you on ideas according to your preferences. As we finished late the guy from the staff was very kind and even showed and explained to us the way back to the hotel using the safes areas for two girls.

My wife and I had dinner here last night the service was great, very friendly staff serve with a smile. I have to say my expectations were high as Thai food is my favourite. we were not disappointed!! the wait is a bit longer but the restaurant was full upstairs and downstairs. we are absolutely coming back : great food, great service and lovely restaurant.

We visited based on personal recommendation and were not disappointed! Wow … the food was AMAZING! The best food I have eaten in a very long time… so fresh and tasty. We had a set menu and every dish was exquisite… a real treat for the tastebuds … the crispy duck salad was probably my favourite due to its intensely refreshing flavours of the salad against the heat and crispness of the duck… we will definitely be back!

First arrived the restaurant was busy but the server says we could sit out side, I wish she would have said we’re full but ended up waiting a long time to get our starter, then waited another 30 minutes before the first mains turned up but then my partner had to wait another 5- 10 minutes to get hers, My dinner did not taste very nice the chicken tasted like it was frozen and heated up with no seasoning. The starters were not very nice and slightly cold . During our long wait we noticed a consistent supply of deliveroo cyclist turning up for online orders, I understand this might of helped a restaurant survive during covid but those times are gone and now the wait times have shot up because...
