The worst items were the pork & glass noodle spring rolls which were dripping with grease (literally- look at that bag!) And the red curry which had to have 2 tbsp of oil skimmed off the top before serving plus the veg in it was so overcooked it was completely mush in the mouth.
A huge lol at the portion of dipping sauce that turned up- honestly, that is how it arrived.
I will say the quality of the ribs was brilliant and really meaty, plus the delivery guy was really nice - but not enough pros to make up for an awful meal unfortunately.
The starters, chicken satay skewers, were anaemic, no colour at all, almost as if they had been steamed, definitely frozen, it had a soft coating to it, absolutely gross. Out of the two portions my partner and i had 1 each.
The Pad Thai, again the chicken was anaemic, rubbery and horrible. Also why is it red? Not a spoon of tamarind paste in there. Mushy noodles, disgusting.
Thai Green curry - the curry was average at best, same issue with the chicken, rubbery and horrible, all the veg was over cooked like it had been sat in the curry for hours. I did like the fact that there was a little oil at the top of the curry, where all the aroma comes from. The actual green curry saved everything I drenched the Pad Thai in the curry sauce so I could get the pad Thai down.
I'm definitely not going to be ordering from here again. I spent £40 on the food tonight and feel completely ripped off. If you want authentic Thai food, stay away and go else where. Save yourself the money. I was so excited to see a Thai takeaway on just eat in my area, so disappointed that it is so bad.
