Lovely dinner, great atmosphere, lovely decor. From our starters to dessert everything was fab. Highly recommend. Our waiter Will was just great! Amazing customer service all around from him, made us laugh too! We will definitely be back. Great location too

I would give it 6 stars if I could. Went here for my birthday it’s definitely 10/10 and I would recommend it to everyone.
Went straight to my top 5 places in London.
Delicious food, proper happy hour cocktails made with love (not run down with ice or syrups and juices) brilliant service, lovely manager, fantastic atmosphere and music (Ibiza classics 💃🏼)
If I owned a restaurant it would be exactly like this one. Can’t wait to come back and maybe try an outside area if we are lucky to get the sun.
This guys executed it brilliantly 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Enjoyed a lovely late lunch sitting out on the terrace in the sunshine. The food was delicious, service was friendly. It’s a big restaurant with lots of space. There is a good selection of drinks. It’s at the higher end of the price scale (for Thai food) and I’m not sure the full experience matches up with what they charge, so would say it’s more expensive than I expected it to be. It was £75 each, for a starter, a main, a cocktail and half a bottle of wine (one of the cheaper bottles).

Delicious Thai food. Went for dinner with a friend two nights ago. We booked our table through their website booking system. We ordered: assorted grilled Yum Sum starters which came in 10 pieces and also assorted steamed Yum Sum also 10 pieces. We then shared a yummy Pad Thai noodles with shrimp and chicken. We also ordered a cream brulee, which had a hint of ginger and came also with a lovely ginger shortbread biscuit. The only thing which I did not enjoy as much was the cream brulee, as I found it a bit watery and the top part was not burnt well as it still had few sugar clumps. All in all the starters and mains were very delicious!

The staff was friendly and the ambiance was also nice with Thai decorations of dancers head masks and paintings. There was also music playing in the background and it was not too loud which allowed one to have a nice conversation and at the same time enjoy the music. I will definitely visit again or order for home delivery!

Could do better Thai restaurant. As highlighted by another reviewer, the flavours don't truly match those of their home country, however these could have been muted to cater for a more cosmopolitan clientele. Service too, was a bit hit and miss.

11/09/22 update for clarity: I appreciate the "modern twist" as you might have noted from my other restaurant reviews. We visited the restaurant on 20/07/22, and this was the menu that was presented to us. The occasion was our first meeting with the parents of our daughter-in-law to be, who had flown in from the US for the marriage of their daughter to our son, two days thereafter. For this reason, I made a point of seeking out the manager before they arrived (specifically to ensure that we paid for the meal) and asked the manager to ensure that the final bill was presented to me, and not our guests from the US. Given that we are of Asian descent, and our guests are of Caucasian descent, your front of house staff got this simple request horribly wrong, and presented the bill to our guests, who attempted to pay, thereby causing great embarrassment for both families. Hence the reason for the 3 star review.

Lovely décor and a clean, modern looking restaurant. However, I find this place to be very overpriced for what it is. I found there to be too much fusion in the dishes (the menu itself is not really Thai and rather a mixture of inspirations from various S.E. Asian countries) and some of the key dishes lacked an authentic taste. I did appreciate that they added creativity and twist in some of their dishes, so if fusion and fancy cocktails are your thing then this is a great place for a social meal

Well! The restaurant itself is really nice and well decorated. The staff are sooo kind and helpful. Service was excellent but very slow. Rui was fantastic with the service, so polite and respectful. I have rated it 3 star because of the food. Thai food is one of my favourite. The food was blend, lack of taste and flavour. I eat Thai quite a lot. I wanted to try Yum Sa as its not far from where i live and also the social media marketing was excellent and really makes you wanna try. Unfortunately i was left very disappointed by the food.
