The food was amazing the place looks very clean inside and will definitely going back in the evening for a good meal and some drinks very soon so will update my review then. Can't recommend this place enough

    A real gem in the heart of Nottingham! Visited for the first time this evening me and my partner, with it being often coming up on Google we thought we should give it a try. From the outside this unassuming restaurant would be easily missed by those passing by and to those people I would say unlucky you! The restaurant inside is a mix of traditional and homely setting with a nice pagoda entrance leading you to your table, upon arrival the waiting staff were super friendly and welcoming and lead us to our table. We ordered a vegetarian platter which was full of flavour and choice, for £13 we were spoilt with choice from delicious tender spring rolls, sweetcorn fritters, samosas and fried vegetables and golden parcels, each brimming with flavor and beautifully presented, all came with a delicious selection of dips to accompany. The main courses came soon after, a beef Penang curry and red chicken curry, both absolutely brimming with flavour and taste, the meat was tender and juicy and delightful from the start to the last mouthful, the coconut rice was also full of flavour and cooked perfectly. Our waitress was super friendly, there was a small error with a meat starter instead of veggie but they quickly remedied and gave us warmth and friendly warmth throughout our meal, for just shy of £50 in total it was incredible, we loved every part of it and left with a lovely feeling of our custom being rewarded, we mentioned it was our first time and they apologised with it being a Saturday and not the usual service but to us it was faultless! This place is honestly one of the best restaurants in the area by a mile! Very reasonably priced, great service, perfect food. Don't miss it! A small walk round the corner from the crowne plaza, if you're staying in Nottingham you need to go here! ***** Review! :) *Small note, the restaurant inside has a few stairs, which is a shame accessibility wise but I'm sure they will accommodate wherever they can.

    The vegetarian banquet was excellent. The tempura starters were second to none, with the veggie spring rolls being a highlight. The mains were all Fantastic, adding different flavours to my plate. The mock duck exceeded expectations. Will definitely be returning.

    I have never been let down by this lovely place, and I keep bringing new friends and family to enjoy. We have ranged from vegans to vegetarians to gluten free to special gastro diets, to full-blown meat & fish eaters, and everyone was catered for perfectly, with much expertise, respect and kindness. The food is the best you can get in Nottingham for Thai, and the service and beautiful carvings and surroundings make this a destination visit.

    The two-course lunch deal is just perfect in terms of price and portion. Lots of choices on the menu. Tom yum soup and green chicken curry are delicious. Great decorations and service.

    Lovely food, lovely services and lovely atmosphere! Foods are delicious and valuable. The spiciness is definitely authentic (not the western spiciness), so be careful. The Thai green curry we ordered was placed under a candle to keep warm. Staff are friendly and professional, but no service fee is charged! Strongly recommended the fried rice and fried noodles

    A hidden gem! Beautifully decorated with a homely, warm atmosphere. You feel welcome the minute you enter and your needs are accommodated without fuss. The food is just fantastic: a good choice of tasty, carefully prepared dishes, beautifully presented. Overall, it offers good value and the food does not disappoint! We will be back for another treat.

    Impeccable service, friendly staff, and great food! This restaurant is authentic thai and decorated with thai aesthetic. I love their pad thai and green curry. The restaurant has no window inside, but the thoughtful decorations make it lively. No parking space nearby, I had to park at NCP and walked here.

    Love the food and the service, such a great little restaurant. I've been many times and never had a bad meal. The lunch deal is incredible value too.

    Looks like a small takeaway from the outside but inside it’s a deceptively big restaurant. Also not anywhere near the usual restaurant haunts of Nottingham centre. However, if you give this place a go you won’t be disappointed at all. It’s a lovely little place serving good food at very reasonable prices with decent service to boot.

    Amazing family run restaurant that serves the best Thai food in Nottingham with friendly service. Been coming here for years and it is consistently fantastic. Please give it a try and support independent restaurants (not the chains).....

    Superb Thai restaurant. Was a but quiet when we dined on a Friday at 7pm, but soon got busy. Food was superb, drinks were reasonable and the service was spot on. The dishes were fresh and tasty. I have dined at many Thai restaurants and eaten in Thailand and I was impressed. Best was the bill, it was so reasonable.

  • 5/5 lauraajohnson 1 year ago on Google
    Hidden gem, amazing food, great service and extremely good value. A sharing platter for starters, main and rice each with a lovely bottle of wine for just over £50. We'll be back and have already recommended to all of our friends 😃

    Most impressed with this first visit. Would recommend it to anyone for a special celebration or just an evening out. Food was really good, also service. A small point that I appreciate, no intrusive background music.

  • 5/5 Jamie W. 1 year ago on Google
    Little gem of a place. Was quiet when we got there but midweek kinda understandable. Staff were friendly and attentive. Menu is extensive and covers everything you could really want. Would be nice to have sticky rice on the menu, that was only thing missing for me. Salads are a real winner and probably an overlooked item but super tasty, fresh and spicy although less chilli than i was expecting for a 2* heat rating. Mains were fresh, hot and delicious with plenty of sauce. For 2 salads, 2 mains and a side plus drinks the bill was under £50 which i thought was great value. Left very well fed, the portions are very reasonable.

    We visited at the weekend and had a really lovely meal, the food was great & service could not fault it. We will definitely be returning 👍🏻

  • 5/5 Emma B. 2 years ago on Google
    Love, love, love Chai Yo Thai. The food is amazing, so reasonably priced, but it's the service from this family run business that keeps you coming back. Amazing, just amazing.

    The food was great and the young waitress who took the order was lovely today. It's just that the older waitress we met when we were paying the bill suddenly had a very aggressive attitude. She looked weird. I hope she‘s okay emotionally.
