We visited on a weekday night with two friends who had eaten there before. Chose the set menu with seafood, which was £26 each, and was described as a banquet. Indeed it was, four courses, and all of it delicious. More than we could eat, so we left the rice to the side. Wine list was a fair range, and... More

Visited with a group of friends last Saturday, booked in as group of 14, sat on two different tables next too each other. We arrived on time at 7.30 seated, and our orders were taken at 7.45 for both tables. Restaurant was busy when we arrived, no warning of expected delays. Our table got their starters 45 mins later and... More

Me and my partner come here quite often as the food and service are consistently excellent and it is great value for money. I've been for birthdays in a group, with friends and as a couple and it's perfect for any occasion. The food is always delicious and authentic, plus there is great choice. I recently tried the red duck... More

Absolutely stunning! Amazing food, the friendliest service we have found ANYWHERE! very cheap and superb value for money which means we always tip extremely well. Authentic food and the girls dress up in traditional clothes and perform traditional Thai dances to music when it's really busy. Really couldn't fault the Thai Garden and would recommend to anyone. 10/10! And the... More

My first experience of Thai cuisine and couldn't fault it. Lovely restaurant, friendly, helpful and polite staff. Unrushed, tranquil setting. Would definitely return if visiting paignton again.

The food here is authentic & the service is good. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with some lovely Thai pieces. They also do excellent take-aways!

We were visiting Paignton for the weekend with friends, out of season and set out to find somewhere to eat, quite late in the evening. We found the Thai Garden and whilst quiet, the welcome was warm and service very good. The food was great - soups, satay and a fab sausage dish for starters, selection of curries and stir... More

We were pleased to get a table for four on a Saturday night without booking as the restaurant was nearly full - we would certainly advise booking if possible. We were met with a friendly welcome and the staff were really efficient throughout the evening with someone always on hand when needed but quite happy to allow time between courses... More

I visited here on new years eve. It was busy and the staff were all in fancy dress. The service was really good but the food was not enjoyable at all. We ordered green curry which was sickly sweet, it resembled a dessert rather than a curry, there was clearly ingredients missing, it was horrible. Not authentic at all.

The staff are so welcoming and accommodating. They cannot do enough to make you feel welcome. The food was amazing, hot plates, fast service, good banter, big smiles, yummy, decor attractive and interesting. We didn't book, but got there early so we were able to get a table. Prices sensible too. We will definitely be going back on our next... More
