I liked Muang Thai, although didn't find there anything particularly special. However, I think to some extent I was unfairly comparing it to Sopar, just up the road from here, which is an amazing place - so I'm giving it the 4 stars, as against less stiff competition, it fares well. They serve up a good range of fairly standard but well-cooked thai dishes - curries, noodles, stir fries - with main dishes around the £6-8 mark. My noodles could've been a touch hotter, but no complaints in general. They also do takeaway.

I was surprised to see that this restaurant was still open late at night, when I randomly decided I was hungry. It was very convenient, because I was rather craving Thai food. The food here was pretty standard fare thai food, but I enjoyed it. They didn't have Thai iced tea though, and the lady looked at me like I was crazy when I asked.. does this just not exist in England?

My go-to option for takeaway Thai in Brighton. High quality dishes (the green curry has a good level of spice to it) and reasonably priced.

Proper, authentic Thai cooked by proper authentic Thai people…read more Cheap. Quick. Very tasty. What's not to like? The menu says take away and delivery but there are a few tables inside which are very basic, no frills. The decor really doesn't give you any clue to the food, apart from its total lack of pretension. Delivery is free on orders over £15 in the local area. Beware, though, they spice the food Thai strength, so if you don't love hot chilli make sure you tell them. My Som tam (green papaya salad) was eye-wateringly hot. I think this is the most authentic Thai in Brighton. A hidden gem.

For two years living in the London Rd area, I overlooked this place, purely because of its…read morelocation. For some reason I tend to be suspicious of takeaways that are too close to home- it's a twisted self-punishing philosophy that has me believing that I must make a massive effort if I want tasty food. This is England, we don't have nice affordable food on our doorsteps, do we?! Well I can now dispel this myth, as I have found the best Thai takeaway in town, right under my very nose! Delicious prawn toast, tom khan soup, pad Thai and spicy beef salad were among the orders from my flat this past weekend. The tom khan soup was literally the best I've ever tasted, it was just so lemongrassy...and it really helped to warm my cockles on a cold Autumn eve! The menu is vast with all the usual curries and noodles as well as more unusual fish and meat dishes. Prices are average. Now that I've started paying attention, this place is packed every time I walk past. It is not the loveliest of restaurants. Still, I am a fool for ignoring it for so long. Highly recommended.

This is a winner, very good service and a menu full of all the normal dishes that you would find on…read morethe list at any thai restaurant, when we went there was a offer on for a 3 course set menu for 15 quid very good considering that the coffee was also included so really a 4 course menu. The surroundings were also very nice with the waiter coming over and lighting the candle on our table as we sat down so a great start to a excellent night of dinning. Also although we did not know and my wife had a couple of glasses of wine you can BYO so that again keeps the cost down when we visit next time. Give it a try, keeps with the standard of the Red Snapper just 100 yards away.

A previous thai restaurant has been reaping the rewards of good karma (Thais are generally Buddhists right?) and been reincarnated another step close to nirvana. Renewed, refurbishsed and really rather good. When you eat in, the service is brisk and friendly. The red curry is very good and quite fiery. The thai pad thai has all the nutty, sticky goodness you'd expect. Save some pennies and take your own booze: the corkage is a quid. Cut costs even more by eating there during the week. There's an all you can eat buffet for a tenner on a Monday. Get 50% of your bill on a Wednesday. And rejoice, they do takeaway and delivery too so you can have it at home, piping hot if you don't want to put your glad rags on. It's all priced very reasonably too. This is a recession busting, cheap and cheerful place to eat and I hope it's here to stay.

Delicious food with a good menu, offering a good number of meat and fish deals with some options…read morefor veggies. Very definitely freshly made, they dealt with our table of 6 with ease, even though they apologised when we ordered that they had no waiting staff in tonight! Starters at about £3 each and main meals from £9.50 for veggie, then £10+ for different meats. We were too happily full to even look at a dessert but we all had beautiful teas with our meal. The attention to detail, Brighton-style, was lovely. Our tea was served with matching cups and teapots for teas for 2, all different and original pretty china. The rice served shaped, in a star and hearts- twee and too girly for some, a cute attention to detail for me- It's nice to know it's not just been slopped on a plate! Prices, I would say, are standard for Thai but definitely good value for the calming, relaxed atmosphere and the freshness of the food. Not being a local, I would definitely risk getting lost on a daytrip to find it.

I'm so pleased I've finally got around to visiting Tookta's cafe, a small Thai establishment down…read moreSpring Street (just off Western Road) which opened earlier this year. Very friendly and quick service, with generous portions. The only two things that may put people off is the relatively bright lighting and the basic decor. However, unless you're going out for a romantic meal, don't let this put you off because the food is fantastic - especially considering the good prices. Quite possibly the best Thai meal I've had in the UK for years; the freshest and juiciest prawn on toast I've possibly ever had; and a gorgeous red Thai curry sauce. The tofu tasted a bit 'deep fat fryer' but the rest of the meal was virtually done to perfection and my partner's meal (prawn red Thai curry) was, if anything, better. Oh, the wine list is very limited, but when the food is this good I'm more than happy to stick to Chang or Singha lager.

This is a relatively new restaurant that has opened up in the heart of the Lanes. The premises are massive, spread out over two floors with a fantastic roof terrace for those sunny Brighton days (few and far between as they are at the moment!). Although bright and airy, I felt the restaurant lacked a little ambiance and atmosphere. I came here with a large group of work friends and the service was great, all the food delivered quickly and at the same time. There is a varied drinks menu and I could definitely recommend the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. They also have a comprehensive cocktail list which I didn't sample on this occasion. Now for the important part - the food! For starter I went for the soft shell crab which was absolutely delicious, and I would highly recommend it. Also exceptional was the pudding - green tea cheese cake - nom nom nom! Unfortunately, it was the main course that rather let the meal down. I went for the Kao Phad - Thai green curry fried rice with chicken, tiger prawns bamboo shoots, aubergines and Thai sweet basil leaves. The flavour was quite nice and had a good level of spiciness. However, the texture was very dry and they were very stingy on the meat and veg - it was verging on just being a plate of greenish rice. Maybe this is how the dish is meant to be served but it just wasn't for me. It was also accompanied by a clear soup that was ok, but again not that full of flavour. Having said that, the menu is very reasonably priced and I will definitely be back to try out some more dishes.
