About this restaurant

  • Vegetarian-friendly
  • Charming
  • Kid-friendly
Looking out over one of London’s most famous landmarks, the flagship branch of Thai Square is a great choice for lunch or dinner near Trafalgar Square. Formerly the impressive Norwegian embassy, Thai Square is a seriously spacious venue full of traditional artefacts, heavy wooden doors and sprays of exotic flowers – perfect for laid-back lunches with friends and cosy romantic dinners. And when tourists invariably tumble in by chance, they are rewarded, as you will be, with excellent Thai cuisine. Thai Square’s authentic menu is full of familiar favourites like fiery tom yum soup, fragrant green chicken curry and chargrilled duck breast with tamarind sauce. Vegetarians are spoilt for choice with delicious dishes like aubergine and shiitake mushrooms stir-fried with sweet basil and garlic. At the weekend, the club downstairs is open until 3am – perfect for diners who want to dance the night away in style.

    I have heard about Thai Square many times and was expecting great things but was disappointed. Firstly, we waited ages for someone to actually serve us although we were only 1 of 2 other couples in the restaurant at the time. Secondly, when the food was served it was lukewarm and not hot...the ambiance of the restaurant was nice but it wasnt value for money....been to many other Thai restaurants where the food is of better quality and hotter! Won't be going back in a hurry....

    Based on this experience and the venue at Mansion house at couple of months ago, we were not very impressed. I wanted to give the chain a second chance and hoped it was just one venue. Sadly not but for different reasons. As this was Valentines I’d hoped it would be a little more special. Unfortunately it felt like conveyor belt service and the whole experience was rushed as a result. Mains came almost immediately. Also the call from the restaurant the day before suddenly announced a set menu. This was not made apparent when booked through Opentable. I underatand a £20 charge for guaranteeing the booking but again at such short notice. It would be good to know this at the very start of the booking process. Staff / service were friendly enough but I guess once you’ve cornered people the night before Valentines, of course they’ll have a smile on their face! There are plenty of really good Thai restaurants out there so I won’t miss this chain.

    We had a really nice valentines day meal here, the food was very good indeed, the menu was varied and good selection. the venue is really very nicely decorated and the staff were very attentive and helpful. I would definitely come back and had forgotten how nice a venue this is and such a great location. I booked in advance, popped in to confirm but they could not provide a preferred seat which is a shame, although I thought others had booked the window tables, so perhaps it is possible. Tables are a bit close together in parts, but we sat upstairs, 2 of us on a table of 4 so plenty of room if they are not busy.

    We were disappointed by the homophobic attitude of one of the waiters (mid-twenties, wearing glasses). The manager should ensure the staff are polite and respectful to ALL customers. Otherwise the food was fine although the duck curry arrived luke-warm and was over-cooked. The restaurant looks attractive but would benefit from a lick of paint. Generally quite poor value.

    The ambience and service were second to none, however the food could definitely be better. The food whilst delivered quickly lacked taste.
