We were looking forward to our takeaway based on all the reviews.
The dumplings were stodgy.The pad thai had little chicken, no peanuts and was the wore we'd ever had
The The Pad Priew was disappointing.
Sadly, we won't be ordering again.
The staff were friendly, I could rate them 5 stars. The resteraunt was not that busy, given it was Friday night.
The food flavours were representative of Thai food, but far from authentic and not as strong as I would have hoped. Also, the chilli rating which indicates the spice level is not present in the food, nothing was remotely spicy (and I usually sweat at the first sign of spice). Even the hot sauce I received on request was just a tangy sauce, not at all Thai. This was a shame as the menu has Thai names for the food, so I had high expectations. I have had far more authentic Thai food in North London. Also, the meat was a bit sparse, with more onions and veg than meat in the stir fry dishes.
The decor looks rather Asian, I liked the place mats. Plus they have Chang beer, which is difficult to find in UK supermarkets.
You can visit here for a nice meal I guess, but do not walk away believing the food is authentic. I would likely not return, on this basis.
Unfortunately there was only one waitress so she was a little overworked but still gave great service.
We'll definitely be visiting Mai Thai again.
