We came here on Saturday and didn't book, there were a lot of tables so that was lucky. Early Eve so maybe a better time for a walk in. The food was excellent, very well cooked and all great flavours. Price was reasonable for the food too. Have to say service wasn't as good as hoped. When we arrived we were told no inside seating available as it was booked, but there were free tables until we left. Service outside was slow and almost felt forgotten, for example drink ordered wasn't available but took a while to mention it and bring an alternative. Would come back because the food was good and I've seen other great reviews so maybe we got an unlucky day.

I'll be honest, I just prefer a small proper Thai place, this is just far too expensive with small served dishes with quite honestly medioka flavours.
It's not bad at all, it's just not brilliant but it's convenient.

Food was delicious however portions were on the small size so make sure to order sides. The only downside was they forgot 2 cocktail orders and had to ask for them. But a great Birthday restaurant.

Much like the other restaurants I've visited in this chain, the food was delicious. Their food always has a good level of spice and everything tasted fresh. I ordered the chicken Thai green curry and it was great.
We arrived for lunch and the portion sizes were perfect for us.

A few initial service issues were handled with candour and good humour. Great decor. The food really is very good. Reasonably priced for the standard.

Went for lunch with family. It was very empty which I didn't mind (Wednesday). We had starter and the main and everything was absolutely delicious. Curry, seafood, duck all was very nice indeed. You must try the Lychee liquor. Will definitely return. Oh and cocktails are great too.

We ate at this Giggling Squid restaurant in the middle of Chelmsford one Sunday lunchtime. It was pretty quiet when we were there but the restaurant is pretty large. It is also nicely decorated in a very floral theme!
The food was good and staff were friendly and helpful.

The food is great and the restaurant’s allergies menu, that you can access on your phone, is excellent. I chose the gluten free filter and it made my choice very easy. Probably the best experience I’ve had in finding gluten free food. I have to be honest the waiter was a little bit abrupt, but he still gave us good service.
