My husband took me to Pims for my birthday today . We had the best time and the food was phenomenal! I've eaten a lot of Thai food in the UK and Thailand and this is the best I've had. The flavours were absolutely on point. We'll 100% be coming back Pim. Thank you ever so much. All 3 of us thought every dish was a taste sensation and delicious :)

Wow, what an incredible evening of food and entertaining. Pim is such a welcoming and happy host, who cooks the most authentically delicious Thai food and will provide you with an evening you will never forget! We’ve eaten in and had takeaway and the food is just out of this world every time; would highly recommend - kob khun krab Pim!

Came here with people from work—Pim is usually not open of Tuesdays, but he opened to cook for us. Plate after plate I was amazed with such great quality and flavor; Pim was really friendly and a fantastic host. He even brought out his guitar and had the group singing! What a fantastic evening

Amazing evening. Pims is a truly whacky place. Loved it. The food is fab, and Mr Pim is chef, waiter, and entertainment rolled into one. This is one restaurant you won't forget. We can't wait to go again!

Man of many talents: he can cook, sing, write songs and an amazing performer. 10/10 for everything. Also amazing for allergy’s! Amazing birthday for my friends 21st.

Pim was very accommodating towards the birthday party we wanted to hold. Went above and beyond for us. Absolutely amazing, friendly, and informative host that cooks brilliant thai food. Couldn't recommend this enough.

We found this unassuming place on Google Maps - called to make a booking and had the best Thai food we’ve ever had outside Thailand! Pim is a passionate chef and cooks to order, so you should call to book and tell him what you’d like to eat. He’ll buy the ingredients fresh that day. It’s a quirky atmosphere, which adds to the whole experience. If you like Thai food, you must try this place!

Going to Pim’s restaurant was definitely an experience, an amazing one. The atmosphere of the place is incredible, Pim’s energy is contagious, it flows everywhere. You can feel Pim’s passion in the flavour of his dishes, it’s so authentic. After dinner, Pim plays his guitar and start sing to everyone, he is a great entertainer. Totally recommend it, and I’ll definitely come back soon.

Excellent place for a great night out with friends! The Thai food is excellent, Pim's Massaman curry was the best I've ever had👍 Great atmosphere possibly helped by the fact you can bring your own booze 😁 After he's cooked the fabulous food, Pim comes out of the kitchen and plays his guitar! Thoroughly recommended!

Amazing Thai food and a great atmosphere. We ended up having a little jam session with Pim on the guitar and keyboard then did karaoke. Pim is a great host and made us all feel at home and created a really fun ambience. I will definitely be going back!

The BEST experience ever!! Super personal, amazing food, great cook :) the sweetest guy, lovely entertainment!! Couldn’t recommend more and bring your own booze !!

Great food, very friendly service and very unique. A must for those looking for good Thai food in cardiff with one of the most welcoming chefs iv ever met. 5 star

Pim cooks really tasty Thai food. The menu does change, and you have to order ahead of time via text. We had satay chicken to start, the satay sauce was insanely good and the chicken well cooked and juicy. Dim Sum was tasty but paled in comparison to the satay sauce. Mains we had massamam curry, rich and deeply flavoured well it partnered well with jasmine rice. Also had tamarind duck which was absolutely stunning, juicy fatty deboned duck with a sweet sticky tamarind sauce. Had the coconut rice alongside this which was incredibly tasty itself. It's bring your own drinks, so you save a bomb if you fancy some wine with the meal. Pim loves getting the guitar out and signing for you after too! Highly recommend pims. Edit 2023: Pim has smashed it out the park again. This time I had Chicken Chilli Basil and it was absolutely stunning. Unbelievably good flavours. The Satay starter was again divine. Pim even did karaoke with us after!

Pim's is truly a unique experience. And whatever you imagine when I say 'unique', you won't come close. Pim's is best described as visiting a colleagues house for dinner who then serenades and entertains you afterwards. Pim's restaurant is realy a few tables set up that feel like you're in a friend's garage, complete with Mr Pim's own clutter and knick-knacks. The kitchen is over the room and the toilet directly through the kitchen. The food is amazing, clearly homecooked and lovingly made (as Mr Pim learnt from his mother, he reports). The panang curry and chicken satay were my favourites, though the tom yum soup was also divine. Food comes quick and bubbling straight from the stove with no frills or baubles. Truly it feels like homecooked meal. Afterwards, Mr Pim sat and chatted with us, seranaded us with Bob Dylan songs, and taught us how to sing. It is clear that music is Mr Pim's true passion (there are many instruments hung up on the walls) and he really knows the science behind music. It may have been helped by the fact I was with a family who had visited before, but he really was easy going, felt like he had invited us into his home, and just wanted to share his life. An extraordinary talented happy individual. Pim's is not a classical restaurant, and if you are seeking a formal dining experience, this is not for you. If you want great food solely, his takeaway is undoubtedly good as well, I am sure. But if you can be open minded, accept that you aren't getting tip-top serving standards, restaurant decor or even restuarant-grade cleanliness, but are there for a fun time, to enjoy authentic Thai cooking and Thai personality in someone's home, Pim's is extrodinary. Truly an unforgettable evening - the excellent food was just a bonus. P.S: it's BYOB, so go nuts! Thank you, Mr Pim. You are a wonderful individual. Visited 09/04/23

I went here for my birthday and had the most incredible experience! Pim is so lovely and made my birthday so special. The food was unbelievable. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you so much Pim !!! We will be back soon :)

Pim is a lovely guy, and his food is absolutely incredible. For starters, I had the mango salad and my friend the satay tofu... I'm not normally a fan of tofu but my mind was blown, I've no idea how he cooked it to taste like that, but wow. Every dish was perfect, incredible Flavours and just 2 dishes was more than enough. Highly recommend, small groups at the moment, but I'm going to tell all my friends about this place

What a great chef! I have been to Thailand many times, but I must admit Pim cooks much better than Thai chefs in Thailand!

Pim, the owner and a chef, servesThai authentic cuisine and he can cook special menu upon your advanced request. Best Thai food in Cardiff I would say!!

Visited Pim's last Saturday night 15/01/2022 after being recommended by a friend - got to say from the moment we walked through the door to the moment we left, we were entertained. The food was very authentic and awesome....!! Pim was the perfect host and we will definately be back for more.... thank you so much Pim.....!!!!

This is an experience of flavour, culture cuppled up with a real passion and a love for food. If you find your self wanting to eat something that's incredibly tasty, that will leave you wishing you had room for more then this is the place. This is hands down the best Thai food I've eaten and that includes whilst traveling in Thailand equally. Pim is such a great character he cooks with his heart and you can taste that in the food he serves you, please do your self a favour and go try this food you will not be disappointed. Thank you Pim for making my wife's birthday meal a pleasureable and memorable one. We will be seeing you again very soon!

Wow what an amazing experience. Pim is such an inspirational, and knowledgeable man. Who also happens to be an amazing chef. His food is exceptional, but it's also about the personal experience he provides. He played us a few songs on the guitar and made us really really welcome. We will definitely be back. He's passionate about good quality ingredients and authentic Thai food. Would recommend for sure. Thank you Pim!
