"For some people in Falmouth when they think of Thailand they might look back to touristy traps like the full moon parties with buckets of booze, 7/11 cheese toasties and Chang beer vests, well they’ve got it all wrong. If you’re like me, I was so swept up in the wave of youth that I didn’t pay real attention to the edible delicacies, so thank god when I stumbled across Thai Orchid that the heavens gave me a second shot. The night began with a couple of crisp Singha Beers which were in the cutest half pint glasses, accompanied by a couple of crackers vegan friendly, yet bursting with that classic flavour. This wet the whistle and egged us on to order more than we thought humanly possible…how little did we know that fateful night. I know what you’re thinking, get the food review…all in good time my fair feathered Google friend, now for the decor review. The atmosphere feels cosy, yet celebratory, embracing modern art and traditional Thai interior alike. The ceiling draped in something akin to muslin makes for the sound chatter to be deliciously smoothed and intimate. The hospitality here is also clearly second to none, we felt truly cared for, our every requirement granted and dietary desire stimulated. To start, we ordered the vegan cauliflower wings and dumplings which came on an impressive serving platter, crispy on the outside, tender on the inner. The dipping sauces left nothing to the imagination, and were accompanied by beautifully dressed beds of salad. Next we had Tom Kha (or maybe Tom Yam) soup also vegan which, put as simply as I can, although humble it was a precise concoction of flavours executed to a magical perfection. Really tasty. For our mains we had the massaman curry with no worry, chicken for me and the lady had tofu (which came deep fried). Made in accordance to the chefs regional Thai cooking style, it had no potatoes but embraced a peanutty flavour with a freshness that was bold and despite eating lots, left us wanting more. Truly a fantastic spot, which shall be a culinary highlight of our holiday to Cornwall, we will always be salivating in memory of Thai Orchid. Thank you to the entire restaurant team."

we have just visited from thai orchid to dinner and had to leave an assessment! eating, service and atmosphere were perfect. we cannot blame; we were already in Thailand, but have to admit that this is the best thai we have ever!

I had the privilege to travel in a series of countries and enjoy Thai cuisine. who would have known that my experience in the thai orchard falmouth would be absolutely superior. none of the appetizers, main or desserts disappointed and all surpassed my expectations. probably the best meal I ever had in a Thai restaurant. value for ’s, great ambiente, friendly staff, great service and the quality of products, presentation and taste. absolutely fantastic. we will definitely come back! gary lynelle

beautiful restaurant and great eating at a very reasonable price. we visited over the weekend, and the service was very attentive and friendly, although the team was dealing with a full restaurant and short staff. they had kindly put a sign on the door to know that there might be a little waiting for our food, and our waitress also let us know when we sit. eating actually came out quite quickly and we probably wouldn't even have noticed if they hadn't mentioned it! we'll eat here if we're in falmouth.

see this place online and, as my wife I avid Thai fans, we booked a table on a Friday evening while visiting falmouth very recently. what an excellent decision proved to be. Although very busy, we had drinks in two minutes and a selection of extremely good Thai dishes within 10 minutes. ate absolutely everything as it was so delicious. all the others there also seemed to have a great time that has contributed to the almost party like atmosphere. we will all say our friends and will definitely visit again. thanks to the whole team at thai orchid for a busy evening.

total, fantastic experience and worth the money (what we felt, didn't seem so expensive.) disclaimer: would be 5 stars, but there were very little (3 small pieces to be exact) boars in my red curry. introduce yourself to a bamboo restaurant next to a tropical rain forest. but set in falmouth. the most immersive interior of a restaurant I cross. my man commanded the most tasty hands of him. I'm not a fan of fishing, but even I loved it. we've never seen anything like that before. I had a red Thai curry that had the perfect amount of heat on it and had a great taste. we shared cocostry, which was more than what we could eat and we eat a lot! the toilets are weakened with blue for male and pink...

we ordered a family meal of thai orchid as we had seen that there were many delicious looking vegan options. after order I called the restaurant to make sure that they understood my order was made vegan. Unfortunately, when the food arrived, the restaurant had sent two dishes with garnelen, and when we called them back, they said that they forget that the dishes should be vegan. to apologise, said the restaurant, they would send out some substitute dishes that would all be vegan. When these dishes arrived, we were very excited to try them, but when my friend fell into one of the flower-flower wings, she was hit with bones. when we realized that they sent us chicken wings after we had screwed...

"So let us share our experience, We went in tonight as a family after seeing that it home made food on the drive to sennen and looked online and had a good look at the food available on the menu also looking to see if it was dog friendly and it ticked all the boxes, Upon arrival me and my wife went in 1st to ask if we could have a table for food and if dogs can go inside and staff were a little unsure but they confirmed we could upon asking for a table for 7 but one in a pram he said we don’t have the availability to cater I was looking at a table big enough and eventually said that this table was available whilst being seated we had 2 table one clean and the 2nd just been finished with so needed a clean but he came and cleaned both tables and he squirted the cleaner on a clean table and the over spray bounced off the table and went over our selfs then we were handed a menu freshly printed A4 paper thrown on the table (WET TABLE) so they stuck to the table upon agreeing what we wanted we went to the bar within 2-3 mins of being seated we knew what we wanted and when we asked for the meal it was OUT OF STOCK (Sunday lunch) ok fair so as I was with a family member at the bar I quickly rushed back to the table to ask my daughter of an alternative she wasn’t happy, So I made a meal up of all the extras on the menu so I went back to the bar to find my family member ordered 2 fish and chips then I realised my wife also wanted Sunday lunch so I quickly rushed back to ask her what she wanted and went back to the bar just as my family member left and asked for fish and chips was also sold out also! 99% of the menu was SOLD OUT this should of been discussed upon arrival not as we were ordering I run and operate my own business and this isn’t how I would treat my customers this isn’t how an establishment should be ran! Even when I was standing trying to order a member of staff was standing there arm against the wall doing nothing while customers are standing waiting to be served! So we decided not to eat and my family member went back to the bar to ask for a refund as we couldn’t eat as a family and the staff were iffy about offering a refund but 10 minutes later they did refund my family member as it became a scene for other people as they could see what had happened! This establishment should be call the 1st and late time you come here! We ended up walking to the chip shop down the road for food we are very disappointed in this company and establishment! For anyone who wants to eat please make sure they HAVE STOCK how can this establishment run without stock? Never again tonight they lost over £200 revenue due to this situation!"
