CHAOPHRAYA THAI RESTAURANT REVIEWS

Absolutely amazing place! Visited for lunch, was sat on the terraced part with incredible views over to Edinburgh castle. The food was absolutely amazing, beautifully presented, tasted phenomenal with amazing flavours, and service was both quick and super friendly. Definitely would come back here in a heartbeat and can’t wait for my next opportunity to, the starter with the coconut milk wrapped in grape leaves was to die for

Loved this place. The food was great but the staff was even greater, my friend ordered the wrong drink by mistake and the girl at the bar was lovely about it and went out her way to help get my friend the right one! Was really appreciated! Definitely recommend coming here! A little pricy but worth it!

Beautiful food, excellent service, staff went above and beyond, Cameron was very entertaining - a rare find anywhere in the world. We went with friends and had a great time and enjoyed a number of cocktails with our meals which were well balanced and all too easy to drink!

NOK'S KITCHEN REVIEWS

Honestly the best restaurant we've eaten at in Edinburgh. The location is superb, the staff was very friendly and effective and the food was absolutely delicious. Each of our plates was skillfully dressed and our dishes were flavourful and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Nok's Kitchen.

Delicious food and attentive staff. The lunch deal includes starters and main for a very affordable price. We had prawn tempura, chicken Pad Thai and Pad Ka Prow minced chicken. All dishes were perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Will definitely recommend!

The food was really really good and decent portion sizes. The sticky mango rice was DIVINE. Great vegetarian options as well. My tofu stir fry was really good. The spice was punchy and perfect.

THAI EXPRESS KITCHEN EDINBURGH REVIEWS

Food was good as always. The waiter Adarsh in particular was really polite and kept checking if everything was okay. He's also all smiles making me feel relaxed. I've dined in here many times before and have encountered grumpy waiters. Adarsh on the other hand was very friendly.

This is one of those places that's got everything right. From really cute and colorful atmosphere to a well designed menu filled with rich and layered flavors. Staff were incredibly nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend the Chilli chilli Bangkok

Everything was sooooo good, from the atmosphere to service and the food! If I could give 10 stars, I would. We were very satisfied. Staff were full of smiles and were helpful The tom yum soup was delicious and I loved the pad thai too. Will be back again in the future. Food is halal.
