👍👍 One of the best Thai meals I've ever had. Fresh, tasty, everything cooked spot on. The menu is a little limited, but I'd prefer that with everything done well, rather than a bloated menu of mediocrity.

    One of the best Thai meals I've ever had. Fresh, tasty, everything cooked spot on. The menu is a little limited, but I'd prefer that with everything done well, rather than a bloated menu of mediocrity. The portion sizes aren't the largest, but two mains, one rice, and three starters was the perfect amount for two people, and at £27.50 the price is very reasonable. Choosing "Mouth warming" for the level of spiciness did exactly what it said on the tin. A noticeable level of warmth that wasn't uncomfortable and went perfectly with the coconut rice. I'll be ordering from here again in the near future to try some more of the menu items.

    This was the 2nd time I tried here after just randomly googling thai food. I can say I have not been disappointed on either occasion. Food is tasty and they ask you what level of spice u require. I went for 'local 4' hot and it was lovely and spicy. The flavours in the curry were good and the spring rolls were also decent. I was not a huge fan of the Noodles but overall it was a lovely meal.

    Fantastic food and very friendly staff, and very reasonable prices. A taxi driver who lives in the area recommended Esarn, and so glad he did - everything is delicious. The tamarind duck is wonderful, and the red curry is really good too - you can specify the spice level, 1-5: I had a 3 and it was pretty hot, which I don't mind, but if you're used to chain so-called Thai restaurants, you might prefer a 2 :-) Oh - and the prawn crackers are fantastic and actually taste of prawns!

    Delicious! Had food from here for the first time on Saturday and everything about it was great. Person on phone who took our order was really nice, helpful and took great care to make sure our order was exactly right. Food came really quickly and seemed very fresh. I can't handle much spice so had spice level 1 and it was definitely the limit of what I can deal with! However, I do think it was the best use of spice I've ever tasted - often spicy things taste of nothing but spice to me whereas with this food, I really got how the spice complemented the other flavours. It actually made me understand why people like spicy things more! My husband is pretty good with spice usually and went for spice level 2 and did say that it was a bit too hot and he'd go 1 next time so be warned: they are not messing around when it comes to spice! Definitely recommend!

    This is a great place! Perfect hospitality and finally someone who knows how to make your food extra spicy! We've been struggling to get barely noticeable heat at so many "authentic" Thai restaurants. These guys don't joke around!! It was proper Thai spicy! They even added extra soup to our take away container so that we wouldn't suffer as much anymore :) All that at no extra charge even though it was clearly our fault for overestimating ourselves. If we ever go to Leicester on a trip again, we would definitely be back.

    Fantastic food, would recommend, and would order again! Decided to get a takeaway dinner having had my hair done opposite. The green curry, spice level 2 was delicious and fresh, with many freshly cooked vegetables. The noodles number 31 were also prepared with fresh vegetables and tasted great on a cold winter's night. The meal was reasonably priced and was prepared in under 10 min. Thank you for delivering a true taste of Thailand in Leicester!

    The best and most authentic Thai food available in Leicester. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    First visit for a while, nice food but portions are getting smaller and beef in a massaman curry should not be tough! Nicely spiced to customers taste as always. To order 3 starters, 2 mains, noodles and rice between 2 of us and not feel really full, reflects on the portion sizes and Thai food is not cheap.

    Phenomenal curry. My wife who has visited Thailand said it was the closest to authentic Thai food she has tasted in the UK.

    Amazing thai soups are great. Small portions but that'd thai food I guess. Very good massamam. The yellow curry is meh. Pad thai was excellent. Got it at 4 spiciness which was too hot. For the curries but the Tom Kha was super at this heat. Really good food

    I have ordered from here for the last almost 2 years every Friday the same order, every week delivery is £32.50 to my door, tonight I rang, I was told it was up to 90 minute wait for delivery, no problem I said id collect - for my same order that Ive done EVERY FRIDAY I was being charged £33.50 to collect it myself, I asked if their prices have gone up since last week he said no, I cant understand why places treat loyal customers like this, wont be ordering again! The guy that took my order has clearly tried to purposely over charge me.
