    We went to Tana Thai tonight because we're staying in a hotel for work and wanted a change. The food and service were incredible. Would definitely recommend. Especially the penang.

    My previous experience dining at Tana Thai was nothing short of faultless and second to none in both service and the quality of authentic Thai food served. So I had high expectations for my second visit and was not left disappointed. We ordered the Thai experience for 2 for £27, which in my opinion was excellent value for money. The staff once again were welcoming and accomodating ensuring we had an enjoyable and pleasant dining experience. Tana Thai manages to deliver a varied menu with generous portion sizes. If your looking for authentic Thai flavours with subtle flavour combinations of hot, spicy, sweet, and sour then Thana Thai gets a A+ from me every time. We will definitely back in the future. My friend and I dined at Tana Thai for the first time tonight, we were not disappointed. We have dined at other Thai restaurants in Bedford and would certainly place Tana Thai along side the best of them for flavour and authenticity. The service from the staff was both friendly and prompt. The mixed starter for two was filling and tasty, with the Thai spring rolls certainly being the star of the show. We ordered beef in black bean sauce with egg fried rice and a mixed seafood pad thai. The beef was succulent and tender and the seafood was cooked perfectly with a mixture of crushed nuts on the side for texture. An excellent meal and excellent service, thank you.

    Brilliant place, really lovely service from the minute we have entered until we have left. The atmosphere was really cosy, right vole of music and lighting. The food, needless to say, was fantastic, we had starters, main and desert and everything was tasty. I would consider it is priced well, and the quality is extra.

    Lovely little place. Very friendly staff and excellent service. We had the Thai experience for 2 which was £27 per person and is ideal if you want to try out different dishes.

    Forgive the bright purple exterior and you will have an amazing meal here. The food and service was top class. I had special ribs which were delicious and a decent size starter portion and it was a treat to have some Thai desserts on the menu too, banana fritters were awesome!

    Really excellent food - both in terms of portion and taste. We split the steamed sea bass and mixed starters

    This is an outstanding restaurant. I arrived late, near closing time, and was warmly welcomed and shown to a comfortable seat. Sipping my Singha, I looked through the compact but well put-together menu. I chose the chicken satay and steamed sea bass. Both were excellent. The satay was beautifully presented with four large pieces of expertly-cooked chicken in a light, flavourful sauce and a crunchy salad on the side. My main course - the sea bass - was a masterpiece. Steamed to perfection and expertly filleted, it came in a simple, light, and deliciously spicy sauce, with perfectly cooked jasmine rice. The entire experience was a rare pleasure and the bill very reasonable. I will return and I recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Bedford.

    Nice Thai restaurant. Good menu selection. I had Chicken Pad Kee Mao which was spicy and great for my palette, my daughter had Chicken Gaeng Massaman Curry which was delicious. Lots of Chicken which was very tender. They do lots of takeaway which was slowing service for those dining in it seemed.

    Simply wonderful - the food was delicious, possibly the nicest Thai food I’ve had outside of Asia and the portion sizes were big!

    This is my favourite Thai restaurant in the whole of Bedford as well as London to be fair, and I have tried a few. The dishes here have a lot of flavour and the ingredients are quality and fresh. My favourite thing here is the Yum Woon Sen but not every one may order it due to the smell of the fish sauce or the dried prawns but absolutely delicious. Shame they do not have parking anymore but there is access to the paid car park in Bedford College which is opposite to them.

    Had a lovely meal with the wifey. Would go again in the future. Service was really good. We originally ordered some noodles but it was a bit too spicy but they were happy to remake it to be more mild. Food tasted fantastic.

    We booked for 16 family members for boxing day ..we prebooked our menu and offered the back room.when arrived they were so accommodating allowing us to sit in square so we were able to enjoy each others company. The drinks and food were given promtly with no problem at all. Everyone couldnt speak high enough of the quality of food. They supplied us with karaoke machine which was such good fun thankyou for lovely night.

    My partner and I aim to do a date night once a month at a non chain restaurant and keep it a surprise from the other. This was my choice and to be truly honest, this place was absolutely amazing! Really friendly staff, stunning interior and the food was just amazing!

    Excellent menu and brilliant gluten free selection. Ideal for vegetarians too. The food was extremely tasty and when they give it 3 chillis for spice - assume it's going to be very hot. Jasmine tea was an excellent accompaniment and the sticky toffee pudding was lovely and gluten free. Parking across the road in College car park. Free for blue badge holders. Staff helpful and friendly. Toilets clean and modern. If you're in a wheelchair then the toilets would be too narrow to transfer and there are 2 large steps to reach them. Would definitely eat here again.

    Wasn't really for us, the tables are so close together it was like you were sitting with the people next to you. The food didn't have a much flavour as other restaurants we've tried in the past. It does get busy in there so lots of people enjoy it, it just wasn't for us on that night.

    We ordered and it was amazing! The green curry was delicious ! I have 2 daughters and there was a different variety of food options that you could choose from instead of just spicy or vegetable on every dish. My husband loved the pad Thai . We ordered on Saturday or Friday and I definitely recommend it ! Keep up the good work tana Thai . Question : can you bring infants to the restaurant ?

    Our first visit to Tana Thai was excellent. The food and service were both outstanding. (Cautionary note: when a dish is described as 'very hot' it really is. I love hot and spicy food, but this was towards the upper limit of my tolerance). Our food was served quickly by a very friendly, constantly smiling, young lady. The presentation was stunning, as were the flavour combinations. My wife's Massaman curry was tweaked to add a bit extra spice - delicious! Good value, a really tasty meal and great service will definitely tempt us to return.
