"Amazing thai food! Never been disappointed with a meal here."
"The food was so pretty πΊ very beautifully presentedπespecially the desserts."
"Food is excellent, freshly cooked, rich in flavour. Highly recommended."
"The Bwadu-infused Mango Sticky Rice is a sensory delight, blending the sweetness of ripe mangoes with the creamy richness of coconut-infused sticky rice."
"One standout dish that truly encapsulates the essence of Thai Corner is the Bwadu Basil Chicken."
Cons:
"The sweet and sour chicken was pretty awful, the chicken was rubbery and the vegetables were raw."
"Went for Thai...got thai-esk food...could've been a tad spicier..."
"The pad Thai had no texture and was also bland with noodles that had been over cooked and cut up into 1inch pieces."
"The mains were ok (not exceptional) the starters were not home made and were clearly catering products."
"Tom Yum Soup and green curry felt rather bland missing some striking taste."
"The first time I found a disgusting looking purple colour small meat piece."
"The chicken satay starter had to be sent back to the kitchen because it was raw and still partially frozen."

"I must add that the restaurant can do with a bit of security at the front door."
"This place has a nice interior but awful layout and tables are far too close together."
"The seats are very close and the restaurant is super packed even for Wednesday dinner."
"It was very busy. So many tables on one floor, felt like they were overbooked but didn't want to turn people away."
"On top of this the seating was very cramped so that people were sitting on top of each other."
