    Ginger stir fry
    YaoEun L.

    Service was great for take away. I ordered 3 items- chicken wings, drunken noodles, and ginger stir fry. The chicken wings had a nice crunch and some good, light flavor. The drunken noodles was good. I've never had drunken noodles with minced chicken before but the texture difference it added was nice. The noodles had a nice texture that was firm and chewy. The ginger stir fry was different. The vegetables were barely cooked and were fresh and crunchy. In my opinion, it could've been cooked a bit more. The chicken pieces were indescribable. It didn't look like nor taste like chicken. The texture was weird. After trying a bite of the chicken, we left the chicken and just ate the vegetables. The ginger was great and had a kick to it.

    We came here on a weeknight and there was a steady stream of customers. We were greeted and seated when we got in. We ordered the egg rolls, pad Thai, massaman curry, and a side of rice. Everything we ordered was pretty good. However, the rice was a little old and less fluffy. The egg rolls didn't have the best flavor, though they were crunchy. However, there weren't that many egg rolls. The massaman curry with tofu probably had the best flavor and what we enjoyed most. The pad Thai with chicken was good, but it could have had a little more flavor overall. There also was a lot of chicken in the curry. The service was good and we would recommend this place for Thai food for those visiting London.

    The food itself was all really good. But the service was kind of bad lol. Once we were seated, no one came to get our order or bring us any drinks. And it was so hard to flag a waiter down. Once we did get their attention, we ordered and asked for water. The food came out and we asked for water again, but we still didn't get it. Until near the end of the meal, when almost all our food was gone, we finally flagged down a server again to get our water. It also took a while to flag down a waiter to get the bill when our plates were clearly empty. Quite frustrating because they would not look in our direction at all, yet we could see them checking in on other tables. And it wasn't even that busy in the restaurant.

    I was craving some basic thai food, went there quickly before watching the Wicked musical, told them about it and they were really accommodating! Food came out really quick and it was delicious and satisfied my craving. Thank you!

    Tasty Thai food in the Victoria area of London. I was staying at a local hotel and didn't want to go too far for dinner. This place was a good choice. We tried the shrimp appetizer Pad Thai, and Pad see ewe. Everything was prepared well. As far as the atmosphere, the restaurant is small. I actually prefer going there for an early dinner because it's a compact space and can get pretty loud. Overall, I think this place is a great choice for Thai. 4 Stars

    Came here for an early dinner after landing in London- close walk from our hotel. We were seated right away. Had the Love you long time drink- very refreshing! Husband had the Mad Cat it was an original beer from restaurant. He enjoyed it. We ordered the wings which were very tasty as starter. I had the chicken and cashew stir fry and my husband had beef stir fry- with side of brown garlic rice. Mine was spicy for me- but still enjoyable- I'm a chicken when it comes to spicy and you are able to tell them less spice. Food was very fresh tasting and I'm happy we stumbled upon it. Definitely worth trying.

    Saddest food experience of my life. Can I please get a refund? I spent the day walking London and just wanted a nice, healthy meal in my hotel room. I saw an ad for Deliveroo on the back of London TimeOut and thought I'd give it a try. I love Thai food and Rosa's menu looked great. I ordered the pad thai with tofu and mixed vegetables and when it arrived 45 minutes later, it was the dark brown color of food that had simmered too long. Every bite was drenched with juicy sodium and I didn't feel good eating it. Look at the packaging. When the order arrived, I got a square cube in a box. This looks exactly like main cabin food on an airplane. I feel so bad leaving this review for people I don't even know, but I tried to handle this directly with the business, and they treated me like a reject. The lady who answered was unkind. She asked for my order number and when I gave the # on my receipt, she said the order didn't exist. I told her it's the only order # on the receipt. She claimed there's multiple Rosa's and I'd have to call the other cafe. The same address that's on my receipt is the same number I called. What can I do?

    I would give this 2 to 2.5 stars. They have a wide assortment of noodles, curries and appetizers, but some of the dishes are so spicy they are almost inedible, the portions are a bit on the small side and the quality of the food is so-so. On the plus side, the food comes out really quickly so if you're in a hurry, this is a decent choice. Seafood Glass Noodle Salad - This is extremely spicy, almost to the point of being inedible. It will either burn your tastebuds off your tongue or you'll have regret after eating this the next day, or both. Not sure if they just dumped an entire jar of chilis in this dish or what. Order and eat at your own risk - this is definitely not for the faint of heart. I didn't find the seafood particularly fresh in this dish either - the shrimp was okay but the mussels didn't seem that fresh. I'd skip this. Red Curry Paste Stir-Fry (£9.50) - We got this with chicken, but the sauce was really watery, so it's more like a curry than a stirfry. Becareful of what you're eating because the chili peppers look like red peppers, and the green chilis look very similar to the green beans. Other than chicken and green beans, and a lot of chilis, there's not much else going on here. It could use some more vegetables and the pieces of chicken were really thin and small. Pass on this too. Mixed Vegetables (£7.50) - This was our favorite dish of the night, the variety of vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, and tofu) were nice and the sauce was also good and not overly salty. I'd recommend this dish. Overall, the meal was a bit expensive and just so-so for the quality and portion-size. I'm sure you can find better Thai food in London. We came here because it was late and we wanted something fast, so it was fine, but I wouldn't come back here.

    Chicken pad see euw.

    Great little Thai spot not far from our hotel by the Victoria rail station. It was quite busy when we arrived at 6:30pm, but we didn't have to wait for a table. They did a steady business the entire time we were there, a testament to how well a job they do. Hubs and I started with an order of fried spring rolls, which were delish, and also the shrimp chips, which were fried perfectly and also had a delightful little kick to them, and for mains, I got the prawns fried rice while he had the pad see euw with chicken. I think they must put Maggy sauce in their fried rice, because it was delish, with an added dash of umami to it that was quite addictive! If we stay in this area again, we will definitely come back to this place! Service was excellent to boot!

The guy that made our order looked like he might have had a little too much fun the night before, so that might have been the issue, but he did put the waffles through the toaster, so it might also be a hardware issue. Whatever it was, my friend did her best but eventually gave up on the unappetizing waffles. The espressos were good, though.

It was clean and roomy, and I liked the overall vibe. 4/5 SELECTION: It's all vegetarian (but they have labels for which are vegan, along with some other allergy notifications) and it's like a hot food bar, where you put whatever you want on a plate and then they weigh it, and you pay per 100g. There are 40 different dishes offered daily, including salads, hot dishes, and desserts. They also have drinks and cocktails. 3/5 WHAT I GOT: From what I remember/can see from my picture, I got white rice, mixed greens, bok choy, a grilled veggies mix, a green beans mix, a potatoes and peas mix and some of an artichoke dish. All of the stuff I got was vegan. It was all pretty good and tasted fresh and of good quality -- in fact, it was probably the best buffet/hot food type bar I've ever been to. None of it tasted like it'd been sitting out for a while, and none of it was undercooked or tasted too processed. The only complaint I have is that I wish they refrained from using oil, but it actually could've been much worse, so that's that. 3/5 SERVICE: The employees seemed friendly. I mean, we didn't really need to interact with them much, given the style of eatery, but they seemed nice lol. 4/5
