    This was a disappointing experience. We went early to have a relaxed dinner before the theatre. The starters arrived and were good, but then the mains came really, really late and there was barely any apology or explanation. Two curries were nice, but the pad Thai (which I’d read was supposed to be great) was completely tasteless. What was supposed to be a relaxed and fun evening just became stressful as we were waiting so long.

    They were out of some items on the menu and the staff seemed a little disorganized.

    In the event our group consisted of 10 (ie instead of 6) but the Restaurant was - as usual - most accommodating. We ordered from the Express Lunch Menu which not only offers a good range of dishes but is excellent value for money. Service was also good and we shall certainly continue Thai Tho Soho as one of our preferred West End Thai Restaurants.

    What a find! We were going to a Theatre show on Shaftesbury Avenue and happened upon this restaurant during a search. A very modest entrance and a climb up a flight of stairs brings you to a lovely restaurant. Excellent helpful staff and the food was delicious, will definitely go there again. Highly recommend.

    I usually love Thai food - but supper last night for both of us was tasteless sludge. No flavour, no fresh ingredients. Very disappointing - and the service was also poor considering there were only about 25 people there. £74 for 2 dishes & 2 small glasses of wine. Rip off.

    Booked table for 2.30 and told as soon as we walked in that they close at 3.30 which was a bit disconcerting. Read reviews before booking which were all four stars. Ordered Pad Thai noodles very greasy and vegetables almost raw. Noodles in a big clump rather than individual. Won't be going again. On research hygiene rating was only a 2

    The food was delicious. Staff was attentive. We had a mixed plate starter followed by Pad Thai for my spouse and I had Panang Curry with beef. Everything was hot and well seasoned. Would definitely recommend.
