I love Thai food and chanced trying this place waking by. It seemed busy with away orders. It's small inside with one table and two areas against a wall and window. I tried the Pad Prig with chicken and rice because I like the spicy and tangy description and it was a 'new' item. Service was friendly and super fast. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in the food as it was much too salty. Perhaps it was catering to Western tastes but having been to Thailand several times, I know what good Thai tastes like. Thought it was dear as well for what it was. I won't be going back..

We had a family photoshoot done while visiting Edinburgh and our photographer suggested this place…read more Chao Phraya is located on the third floor but it's impossible to take the stairs to get to it. It has the vibe of a fancy nightclub. Since we're being COVID cautious we asked the host when we arrived if we could sit outside. We were told we could but only if we were drinking. (When we left we saw several tables out there eating food.) Could we sit in the main dining area away from others? "It'll be packed in ten minutes," we were told. It was 1:30. When we left only two tables were taken. We ended up having a private room with views of Edinburgh Castle, though the view from the main dining room was better. Our server was without any warmth as well. Methinks they have a customer service problem. The apps we ordered came in groups of three for our table of four. When I eat out with a group, my servers often offer to charge a little more so we have the right number to share. Not here. The Mieng Kum with grape leaves filled with toasted coconut and peanut was really good and one of our favorites. We ordered the Weeping Beef Salad and got the non-salad version which costs more. We ended up with the Pepper Steak and it was excellent. Even though it wasn't what we ordered, it was the best dish of the day. The Thai Tacos with chicken were small but good. The Basil Chicken was fine but forgettable.

Our Uber driver recommended this Thai restaurant (suggest making reservations) and it was delicious…read moreand had a great view of the castle.

I am sure I have written a review for this place before but think it's worth updating it…read more This is by far one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh. And anywhere really. I'll tell you why... Firstly, the food is always outstanding. I typically go chicken or prawn panang. It's gorgeous. And sometimes gaeng massaman. Also gorgeous. I've tried a few of their stir-frys which are equally as lovely and I think once Pad Thai...always yummy. But in a thai restaurant like this I tend to steer clear of Pad Thai as there's so many gorgeous dishes. I like to try a different starter each time I go and I have never been disappointed. Secondly, Everything always tastes fresh and flavourful. I find the portions to be slightly large unless I'm sharing with someone. Between a starter and main you're stuffed. Thirdly, I tend to eat here once a month, sometimes twice because of the above (and I love Thai food) but mainly for the fact that the owner and staff are just absolutely lovely. They always greet us warmly and the ones that recognise us always ask how we are. I have been bringing my son (7 now) here since he was 4 and they are as happy to receive him now as they were then. And they often give him a free kids ice-cream because they are just awesome like that. Not once have I ever been uncomfortable eating there with my son. They never made me feel awkward or badly for when he was messier and louder. They have always been brilliant. Fourthly, to expand on my previous point they so obviously love their local repeat customers. I just recently went for dinner here for my birthday. The owner who had come over to chat with us asked what we were celebrating and when I told him he graciously offered is desserts on the house :) who would mind that?! (Just to point out it there was only 2 of us) Fifthly, I don't love their dessert selection and I LOVE dessert. But I don't care as I'm too full from the amazing starter and mains. However I had the lemon sorbet and that was really nice. Came in a real frozen lemon as well! So that's my love of Phuket Pavillion in 5 crucial points I suppose. I could talk about their prices but let's be realistic...Thai food in Edinburgh is pricey. And there's a few better known places that have the worst service and average food that charge the same or more (chaopraya for one).

Ordered take-away after a long touristy day. Everything was delicious! All the veggie dishes were…read moretop notch, the curries are tasty.

I could not be more excited about this new addition on Lothian Road, especially with a cheap Thai…read morefood spot! The restaurant is clean, modern, spacious with deep blues and wooden interior. I usually come in before noon as the first customer, but the space fills up within minutes as lunch time rolls around. I have tried a variety of items from their menu from rice & noodles, curry, soups, sides, and more; all have been delicious, heartwarming, and affordable. Some things I have tried thus far are the Ped Nam Pueng (£6.80) with Garlic Noodles (£1.60). These were the perfect pair as the ped nam pueng was flavored with a sweet and savory marinade in slices of duck meat and chopped vegetables. I mixed the garlic noodles into the sauce, which brought out even more texture and flavor into the dish --definitely recommend. Another visit on a rainy day (per usual) had me craving some warm soup, so ordered the Tom Yam Goong (£5) with Noodles (+£1). The hot and sour spicy soup was refreshing and flavorful. There was plenty of noodles, prawns, and mushrooms for a fulfilling meal. I also decided to add a side of Peng Gai Kao Prik (£3.40), which came with a bowl of spicy chicken wings. Although the pieces were small, there were 10 of them which was quite the value for the price. The spices and seasoning packed heat into the crispy wings; and make sure to soak in the juices at the bottom for extra flavor too --yum! This place has easily become a weekly lunch ritual for me. So thankful an affordable and delicious Thai spot opened up nearby!

The pad Thai was delicious and the Thai iced tea is the best I've ever had! We had a lovely server…read moreand the music playing was such a vibe. Definitely a must go when in Edinburgh!

Vegan approved. As a vegan dining in Thai restaurants, I typically go for the vegetarian dishes and…read moreensure that no egg or dairy is added (of course). This restaurant presents as very sensitive to allergies and dietary requirements, with statements on its menu speaking to the care that is taken in ingredient selection and food preparation. I got the green curry, spicy ("Thai spicy" explained the waiter) and holy moly it was so good. It did not feel at all like I got a white girl version of a Thai spicy dish, it was nice and warm and balanced and delicious. My co-diners got pad Thai and a duck dish, and both were super happy with their meals. I highly recommend this place.

Outstanding food - probably one of the best Thai meals I have had in Edinburgh, hence the 5 stars…read more The restaurant is located in Old Town, in one of the closes just off Cockburn Street. Given the location, it's a bit of a hidden gem but definitely worth the visit if you're after some tasty Thai food. They have a good selection of starters, main courses and chef's specials. Also some fusion type dishes are featured, e.g. Khua Khun Mae Special in the starters section, which is traditional Scottish haggis with Thai style seasoning. Sounds interesting, but I went for the deep fried king prawns with Thai beer batter served with a homemade mango sweet sauce. They were lovely - three large morsels with a tasty dipping sauce which wasn't too sweet. For main course I had a duck stir fry. Again, absolutely delicious - tender and very tasty duck with vegetables. Note that they do ask you how hot you would like your food. The waitress was very friendly and polite.
