This is one of the best Thai food we’ve ever had. I went here with my fiancé and friend for my birthday. o my God the food was amazing every dish was 10/10 I loved the green papaya salad. We had the luxury Thai set menu without soup. Everything was amazing even the desert and I’m not even a dessert person. The staff were very kind and amazing. Food was served quickly no long wait. We went on a quiet night but wow I am going again thats how amazing the food was!!

Very nice restaurant. Furniture is a little outdated and needs to be changed. Food is awesome halal Thai and so are drinks. The desserts are fantastic. However, the restaurant is very overpriced for what it is. Nice place if you love Thai food for a special occasion.

An oldie but goodie. Having dined here over the last 20 years (each & every visit to London) - this restaurant still delivers an above average experience. We dropped in over lunch & tried their set menu (excellent value @ £30 for a 3 course meal + drink) & pleased to say that authentic delicious Thai food is the mainstay of this restaurant. Everything was delicious & beautifully presented. The manager Mr Anish was professional & helpful ensuring our group were well taken care of. An overall excellent experience - we’ll be back on our next trip!

Absolutely the best Thai restaurant in London, with very decent environment and nice staff.
The menu is less extensive than the original store in Bangkok, but still plenty of excellent choices. Highly recommended the Mango Platter with Steak and the red curry placed in a pineapple. Thai ice tea is also a very nice choices.

Extensive menu, friendly staff, and delicious food. The food with a drink added up quick so be prepared. The portions are large and we’ll worth a share. I had soup and she had the blue crab to start. Then, for the mains, we had pad Thai and drunken noodles (mild spice).

My wife has dined at Mango Tree in the past based on her previous experience I decided to give it a try.
I must say the location and atmosphere of the restaurant is lovely but the food was a massive let down. She even agreed the quality of the food wasn't the same compared to her previous visit.
Only two out of the four starters were nice which was the satay chicken skewers and prawn spring roll. Duck spring roll and the fish cakes I can only compare it to your average local Thai takeaway standard. The beef salad was nice and has a little kick to it.
Lamb shank was cooked to perfection but the gravy just didn't hit the spot for me. Lamb chops cooked exactly how we asked but all you can taste was lime...
The dessert pretty much made up for the lackluster starter and main.

Mango Tree has been a Belgravia staple and still delivers great food and attentive service.
The set menu for 4 was extremely generous and every dish was fantastic. They accommodated all our dietary requirements including a severe nut allergy.
The staff and management were excellent and patient as we were there till late.
They accidentally gave me an alcoholic cocktail instead of the mocktail I ordered hence the 4 stars instead of 5.

We were humming ‘Underneath the Mango Tree’ from Dr No on our way to this restaurant expecting to be transported to a tantalising and exotic location like in the film but in a culinary sense. We weren’t disappointed. Food was excellent, service even better, perhaps the best service we’ve had in a long time (Abhiyash was an amazing server) and the ambiance on point. Best of all the entire menu was halal which is quite rare in Thai restaurants. Why not five stars? All of the excellence comes at a hefty price tag which is somewhat prohibitive - we were two people and ended up forking out £120 for starters, mains and dessert. Overall, well worth a visit!
P.S. We’ve never been too fond of duck dishes but the duck here has really renewed our faith and shown that well cooked duck goes a long way.

A fantastic restaurant serving a great selection of Thai dishes. The restaurant is larger but I would recommend booking as it can get very busy. I was given a window seat which looks out onto Grosvenor Place and it was nice to be in a peaceful restaurant whilst the busy street scene take place outside. Service was very quick and the team were all very polite and attentive. I had the chicken satays followed by the Lamb Shank massaman. Both were superb but the Lamb Shank was exceptional, a very generous portion, incredibly tender and amazing flavour. I would highly recommend Mango Tree to anyone who enjoys Thai food but wants to try something a little different

For a special occasion this is a great Halal Thai restaurant. The food was good as expected for the price. The mocktails were a little too expensive considering it's just juice and syrup + a few bits with no alcohol. The main reason for the 4 star was because we continuously saw 1 staff being rude and bullying another staff in front of our eyes. We heard him say "what about that don't you understand!" To another staff in a rude and patronising tone. He was also shouting at another staff. It's not nice to treat others like that in the first place and also especially in front of customers. Treat your workers well, and they will stay.

NYE 2023 - set menu which was good value for money. Great taste all round and kore than enough food.. One vegetarian and one non-veg option. Great seating provided by Ashley (thank you ). Service was on point as were the drinks - complimentary champagne or mocktails (you choose). Portion sizes perfect and the salmon dish was very good ( think of salmon in a masala sauce - but not drowning ) .... Starters offered are essentially a platter of food (veg / non veg) which again were just right. DJ onsite from approx 0730 which at times overlapped the standard restaurant music. Great atmosphere with plenty of space and seating.... Would def recommend to anyone even if you only try it once...

The food here is absolutely amazing. It’s a great fusion of Thai and Lao food. It’s probably one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to as there is so much flavour in each dish. We recommend trying the lamb skewers, jungle curry and the glass noodles. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because we had to wait 1h 45min before we got a table. You might want to make a reservation or visit when it's not busy.

Ramadan Kareem all! Hope your fasts are all going well 🙏 This year, we’re so spoilt with choices for eating out for iftar! So many restaurants are running a good iftar menu, and even though I much prefer breaking fast at home, I’m definitely keen to check out one or two. When Mango Tree invited us to check out their Ramadan Special Menu for iftar, we’re very excited about it especially when it’s a cuisine close to home for me!

Located in Belgravia, conveniently just a stone-throw away from Victoria underground station. Once past the nondescript doors, the decor inside is a blend of chic and functional.<br/><br/>Food quality is good, but we found the service to be a bit slow as it took them a while to take our orders.<br/><br/>For starters we ordered the seafood sharing platter that came with king prawns, scallops, and deep-fried soft-shell crabs. The scallops stood out as the finest and the most tender that I personally had ever tasted. We also shared a bowl of chicken tom kha soup, which was flavorful and appetizing (thanks to generous additions of lemongrass).<br/><br/>For our main course, we shared a portion of lamb shank in massaman curry, with steamed jasmine rice. I found the curry to be a tad bit too sweet, but was okay. We were quite full at the end of it.<br/><br/>For desserts, we shared a portion of mango with sticky rice, which just could not go wrong given its simplicity.<br/><br/>

“They do reasonably good food,’ said Matthew. ‘Thai. It’s not the Mango Tree, but it’s all right.'”. When a restaurant’s mentioned in a book by Queen Rowling herself, you know it’s gotta be good. And Belgravia’s Mango Tree Thai restaurant gets itself a namecheck in The Silkworm – one of J.K’s novels under the pen name of Robert Galbraith. A sister restaurant to Chi Kitchen, which I rave about, Mango Tree originated in Bangkok, and offers traditional-based yet innovative Thai tastes to its London visitors.

I recently rediscovered a long-lost love of Thai food over a riotous feast of flavours at Mango Tree…. The unassuming restaurant in Belgravia has been on my list for some time now, based on more than one enthusiastic review from trusted foodie friends. Its popularity was certainly confirmed by the busyness of both the bar and the expansive dining space, with our fellow diners varying from business suits to both intimate and vivaciously large groups of friends and family.

Mango Tree is the swankier, older sister of Chi Kitchen, set right on the back doorstep of Buckingham Palace. They've just launched a new Thai Dim Sum menu and after being super impressed with our experience at Chi Kitchen, Tom and I just had to get down there to try it out. . All the Dim Sum is made fresh in-house every morning by the restaurant's Dim Sum master (yep..that's actually a thing!?) and steamed to absolute perfection. They arrive at your table like little jewels in their very own bamboo nest and taste just incredible.

There are so many restaurants in London right now and while new ones are opening everyday, it’s actually the older, more established ones which interest me most – such as Mango Tree in Belgravia. Location wise it isn’t the greatest. It’s central, but unfortunately its on a corner and on a very busy man road, neither does it look very glamorous from the outside – but step inside and you’re transported to an oasis of food and wine. We started our journey here in the bar with a glass of Champagne, followed by a bottle of rich and tropical Condrieu to pair with our meal. The perfect match to just about the entire menu.

Mango Tree specialise in Thai food, and like their original restaurant in Bankok, they bring in foods from four main culinary regions: rich and mild dishes from the north, spicy food from the east, mild dishes influenced by the Chinese cooking style from the central region, and hot and spicy food from the south.<br/>Having appeared on BBC1’s MasterChef and recently mentioned in chapter 10 of J.K. Rowling’s novel The Silkworm as a Thai institution in Belgravia, we knew we were in for some good grub!<br/>We both ordered a beer to go with our meal, as we thought it would be rude not to!<br/>We began with a palette cleaners with cucumber, onion and strawberry... sounds odd but it worked really well!<br/>To start we opted for two vegetarian dishes so we could share them and try more food...<br/>The first was deep-fried tofu, served with spicy peanut sauce. I've only recently started to eat Tofu and this was the nicest I've had so far; it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which went down a treat.Our second starter was fairly traditional; mixed vegetable spring rolls, deep-fried and served with sweet chilli sauce. These were scrummy too! <br/>For mains Emma had the Thai rice noodles stir-fried with bean curd, Chinese chives, peanuts and beans sprouts in a special homemade sauce and I went for the meatier option of thai rice noodles stir-fried with corn-fed chicken, with all the same bits as Emma's but topped with Mango Tree's signature egg net... <br/>I have to say, it was by far the best Pad Thai I've had in a very long time. I find lots of place skimp out on the chicken and the sauce isn't enough so it becomes quite dry but this was filled with chicken and perfectly saucy! <br/>We didn't try dessert as we were so full up but the menu did look promising!<br/>The service we had was second to none; the staff were so attentive and polite. And the band playing the soundtrack to our evening were a welcome surprise.<br/>Have you eaten at Mango Tree? If not, why not?!<br/><br/>Read more reviews on SquibbVicious.com

Mango tree is one of my favourite thai food restaurants, the flavours are authentic and the dishes are presented beautifully. The fishcakes are my favourite appetizer. I love the penang and red curry and the grilled seabass is really nice too. The pad thai is also really good and I love how they present it with a web made of egg over it.

A decade ago, Mango Tree offered amazing Thai food and was arguably the capitals best Thai restaurant. It was a fine dining restaurant in a chic modern environment and offered beautiful plates of reinvented Thai food. One went there in the safe knowledge of being guaranteed excellent food and service. <br/>It has sadly lost its way since then and my most recent visits have been disappointing. <br/>My partner and I have dined at Mango Tree several times over the past 12 years and have shared some special moments in our lives there. So it was heartbreaking when a few years ago we experienced a very bad meal for the first time. It was a Valentines Day dinner for which we had payed considerably more than usual - due to the commercial nature of Valentines Day. We were given very little to eat from the fixed menu and the food was just simply poor, being extremely bland. <br/>Since then every visit has either been a decent experience of average food or has been a mediocre or disappointing affair. <br/>Staff are nearly always few in number or overworked and rushing around; whereas in the past they were extremely jolly people who gracefully went about their work. <br/>The food has gone from being extremely vibrant, innovating and tantalising to just being the normal fare and the overall quality has declined. <br/>On my last visit, I really struggled to notice any real flavour or texture in either the fish cakes or the satays and the red curry sauces tasted like something out of a cheap jar. <br/>Mango Tree still does offer some good food, but dining there has now turned into a game of Russian Roulette, as you really do take a chance and have no idea of the experience you will get. <br/>Limited Halal.

Good Thai restaurant, very close to my office so used to go there when they had lunch offers, however the dishes are on the higher side and you end up paying atleast 50 quids for a meal with a drink per person. I would recommend green curry based dish. The quantity of rice is small keep that in mind.

Good Thai restaurant.<br/>I've been a few times and the decor is really nice.<br/>The food is really good but make sure you go with an offer as it's very expensive for Thai food.<br/>I went with a 50% offer which is only for half the menu while the signature dishes are 25% off and the bill still came to over £100 for 2 people. A cocktail is £10 which where they make their money.<br/>The platter starter is very nice to share between 2.<br/>The duck main course was nice along with the pad Thai. Green curry is decent with lots of flavours but small sticky rice portion.<br/>It's a place you'll only go say once a year because of the price but the food is good and you do have a good night with great staff.<br/>Things to note, the tables are 2 hour turn-around so we were about order desert where we were over our 2 hr timeframe so they recommended to move us to the bar but that put me off having the desert in another location but they gave us complimentary coffees which was ok.<br/>Overall, very nice restaurant which gets very busy, food is nice but very expensive even with the offer.

My friend and I had a limited edition wine pairings menu which included 5 wines and 5 small dishes. Wines were matched up with a particular dish to enhance flavours.<br/><br/>All the dishes were really flavoursome. They weren't mind blowing in my opinion, but my friend was really impressed. I especially enjoyed the spicy prawns. The wine pairings were great, a good selection of red and whites and a delicate desert wine, all matched well and were poured generously. <br/><br/>Before the dessert pairing my friend decided she wanted to order some additional dishes so we ordered tempura soft shell crab and tempura lobster, I really enjoyed these. The crab was served in 3 pieces, I would have preferred the crab was left whole as I think it looks more impressive but I still enjoyed it nonetheless <br/><br/>The dining room was very busy and service was surprisingly attentive considering the large amount of diners. I had a really fun evening, my friend did get a bit tipsy and to my amusement attempted to exit through the cloakroom. Overall a great experience, not mind blowing food but good and flavoursome with a buzzing atmosphere.

Happy New Year, my lovely readers!! Mr S and I had a great Christmas, a quiet one spent with our families. Between us we have eight nieces and nephews (though seven are on Mr S's side!!) and so Christmas Day and Boxing Day was filled with children playing with their new toys, wrapping paper everywhere and delicious Turkey dinners. Our parents get on really well so we were lucky to combine our family Christmas's at the house of Dr and Mrs Silver Senior. My sister spent Christmas day with her boyfriend's family so we had our Boxing Day celebration over at her flat. Mr S was of course delighted to have two turkey lunches, plenty of stuffing and a ton of brussel sprouts. Presents were kept fairly minimal as the emphasis was on gifts for the kids but I bought Mr S some new clothes (as he is quite the male fashion blogger now) and he bought me another new coat! Anyway, rather than blog about my Christmas I decided to focus on my glam new year instead! My lovely friend Theresa has just gone through a bad break up and I insisted she come to London from Bristol so we could see New Year in together. She's off travelling at the end of January and I can't wait to hear all about her adventures. After many bad experiences at New Year, I'm a firm believer in keeping it as simple as possible. So along with Theresa I invited a few friends to come to dinner locally and then back to mine for some champers before midnight. I've mentioned before that living in Victoria there's a wealth of restaurants right on my doorstep, to save hassle with taxis we wanted somewhere in walking distance, which would be fun and not ridiculously expensive. Mango Tree is an old favourite of mine and I've visited the Thai restaurant many times. The lovely Amelia and Polly, along with their husbands both called James, joined us for our feast. We sat with girls on one side and boys on the other so that we could talk about shopping and they could talk about football!! For New Year's Eve Mango Tree offered

We were first presented with the array of starters, I didn't try everything but I have to say what I did try really wasn't good. For example, the beef skewers were over cooked and chewy, spring rolls were tasteless and the prawns in very heavy batter and greasy!<br/><br/>Main courses were a mixture of curries and stirfries...<br/><br/>Once again, nearly everything tasted bad, even the rice was squidgy and overcooked. Actually that was the general theme...the chicken was also horribly chewy and the only thing I really enjoyed was black cod but the portion was tiny and it was between seven of us.<br/><br/>It was incredibly disappointing and I really think the standards have gone downhill, a real shame as it was previously my favourite Thai restaurant. To be honest, I kind of gave up on the food and concentrated more on the wine, which was lovely. <br/><br/>One bonus was they gave us a little package with party poppers and blowers which was a really lovely touch. <br/><br/>But even the chocolate brownie dessert was disappointing. I honestly don't know why everything was so bad, you'd think with a set menu and only certain dishes coming from the kitchen it would be better. I'm actually not a fan of set menus for special occasion dining. Day's such as Valentine's are just an excuse for the restaurant to serve an overpriced menu, but we'd struggled to find somewhere else. Next time I'll do my best to avoid the set menu trap.

Mango Tree is a Thai restaurant in Victoria. It's a pretty big restaurant, which surprised me. I went there for lunch during the week and it was really busy. Probably because they have a 2- and 3-course lunch offer. I had the 2-course lunch for ~£17 and choose the chicken satay and the ped makham, which is a rice dish with slices of roasted duck on a bed of pak choi with a sweet and sour tamarind sauce. The chicken satay was incredibly tender and the peanut sauce was mouth-watering delicious. After finishing the screwers, I just wanted to dip my finger into the sauce and finish it all. Though, other people in the restaurant probably wouldn't have appreciated it. As for the main, I wasn't too impressed. I should have probably gone for the curry to make a better judgement. It was a nice dish, but so drenched in sauce that all you could taste was the sauce. It was nice, which means average, so maybe don't follow my example and choose another dish, if you really want to eat there. But overall, I don't think I'd visit again, because the main dish I choose was boring, the restaurant itself didn't have too much of an atmosphere and it was pretty expensive on top od that. I don't even want to know how much it is usually.

The Mango tree has a very pleasant and warm atmosphere, where the waiters were very knowledgeable of the menu. I ordered the red curry which was delicious. There's nothing worse than going to a restaurant and being rushed through each course. This was not the case at mango tree. The waiter left the perfect amount of time in between each course and was happy to leave him a generous tip afterwards. Really enjoyed dining in this modern, open and luxurious space. Would recommend this to anyone.

With the growing number of Thai restaurants around London we chose Mango Tree because it always looked busy, so we thought, it must be good!<br/><br/>Yes its a little pricey, not somewhere i would go often (i wish i could!) but if you like Thai food and you want to treat yourself then this is a lovely place to do so. The ambience is rather pleasant, and the space is modern and open plan. The food is lovely, full of flavour, and the dishes are presented beautifully.<br/><br/>Although the restaurant is quite spacious, the tables are place rather close together so on a busy night you really can't help listening in to others conversations, it's not the most private restaurant.<br/><br/> The service was great, they were attentive without being intrusive. <br/><br/>It seems to be quite mellow during the day but towards the evening this seems to change so i do recommend booking a table when possible.

Was here for a party and there was Thai food being served left right centre. Overall the food was excellent although it was a little bit too rich. The seafood satays were my pick of the starters while the red coconut curry was the winner as far as the mains are concerned.<br/>If there's still room for desert you'll want to go for the baked banana it one of the most enjoyable deserts I've had in recent memory.<br/>Drinks include beer, wine, spirits and cocktails so go crazy. It can get very busy so the atmosphere can be very lively but the staff do a good job handling the traffic.

Short journey to discover Thai flavors<br/><br/>There are many Thai restaurants in London, however this one is worth going since on the menu they have dishes, which goes beyond what you usually find. This is the right place to discover many Thai specialties and so what we did!<br/><br/>I went there with my friends (we all love Thai food). The restaurant’s decoration is trendy and the staff friendly even if sometimes a bit fast to clear the dishes (but nothing really to complain and we joked about it). <br/><br/>Dishes are excellent and made of quality products (the prawns size is impressive and are tasty). The price is a bit above what you would expect however on the over hands this is not a rip off.<br/><br/>We went there on a Saturday evening and the four of us were lucky to be accommodated. Thus, unless coming very early (before 08:00 pm) I suggest booking a table.<br/><br/>In conclusion when going there, maybe to avoid being disappointed, just select those dishes that you never had the chance to taste before

The food is very spicy authentic Thai. It is a really good location and there is vast variety on the menu. The food is presented in really interesting and creative ways, making the experience more a feast than just dinner. The reason for my mediocre score is that the price is a little high. Although the food looks great and tastes delicious, there are many other Thai restaurants that do similar dishes, with a little less "pezzas" but just as much flavour and a lower price. I would recommend the Mango Tree for a special occasion rather than just a meal, to justify the costs.

I went to this place with a friend of mine just to try the food. Though, the food here is very expensive but since we got to know that there was a 50% discount on the food, so we thought to give it a shot.

I did not have a good experience at this place, even though it enjoys a good reputation. The service is not good, it is not consistent and neither is it prompt. The interiors are also a bit too stuffy and the tables are cramped up with each other. There is too much noise as well. The food here is average, but overpriced for the quality and quantity. I would not recommend this place and neither will I visit again.

This place had been in my list of restaurants to visit since a long time, and it was fulfilled just last week when I happened to visit London during a business meeting. I've been a lover of Thai food since childhood and I had one of the best Thai dining experiences of my life. I had no clue what I was missing until I visited this place last week and had the most amazing Thai food of my life.

When in Thailand you must visit this place and when I say must you really must! I have not had such amazing food in a long time. Contrary to the popular belief that the food here just costs pennies, the bill was a little higher but given the taste of the food I did not mind the amount that I had to pay. Be it the flavour, the freshness or the creativity in the presentation of the food everything was just perfect. Before you visit make sure you have a look at at the deals that are being offered on the internet. You might just get a steal deal!

If you have a special day where you can afford to splurge cash on some really good food with a great staff to top it up, then this is the place you need to visit. The food is extremely satisfying and delicious and also very expensive. There is one two course meal offered at only 17 pounds though. Their monthly theme events are also very interesting. The staff is quick, efficient and very attentive. Highly recommended.

It is very difficult to explain why I do not really give this place a top rating, and why I gave it an average rating. I really liked the food that served to me, and honestly, the service was also equally good. However, when it comes to me, I don't rate a restaurant just on these two parameter, and for me, a dining experience is about the whole quality and not just one or two important things.

It is true that not everybody can eat from an a la carte menu. However, at this restaurant, the food is simply fabulous and excellent. They have some of the most brilliant flavours and the tastes are simply marvellous. The mocktails are enthralling and they have some very unique tastes and zing.

For a restaurant that prides itself on its fine dining experience, this was a complete disappointment. We went here for my birthday dinner as it looks quite beautiful from the exteriors. When we reached here, we were told to wait even though there were quite a few vacant tables. The food was not that great either and I have had better Thai food at other places. The dessert was way too sweet and some of the food we had received was not even called for. We will never be returning to this place here.

Surprisingly wasn't impressed by my dinner here and I’m not sure what the hype is all about. <br/><br/>Perhaps I didn't order the right things or perhaps, it’s just a bit overrated. I had the deep fried sea bass with the spicy fruit salad, my friend ordered a lamb curry and we both shared the Mango tree platter. Gave up on the fishcakes, in the platter, after 1 bite and literally only had the 2 pieces of fish from my plate, as the fruit salad was too spicy. I personally found it quite bland. My friend felt the same way about her lamb curry, but said that the previous time she visited she enjoyed her meal. Not really sure I will visit again, given the number of options around the city.

It was a total disappointment for a fine dining Thai restaurant!<br/><br/>We went to Mango Tree Thai restaurant for my birthday dinner, we always wanted to try this place as it looks good from the outside when we walk or drive pass the restaurant. When we first arrived we were told by the receptionist to wait at the bar even though the majority of the table were empty!<br/><br/>Unfortunately I must say that we were both utterly disappointed with the meal that we received as we both love Thai food very much, we feel a bit sorry to say this but it's our genuine thoughts after having meal in Mango tree, it is the worst Thai meal we have ever had in London! Comparing to other Thai fine dining restaurants like Blue Elephant and Patara, we expected the food to be presented with interesting garnishing and good tasty food, but Mango Tree is over charging on price for the food quality that they provide! We have been to some non-fine dining Thai restaurant in London and we had much better meals compare to what we had in Mango Tree.<br/><br/>We ordered grill Thai chicken marinated with coconut and some other beautiful ingredients, it turn out to be like a chicken dessert if you can imagine the taste! Everything was too sweet on the plate, the chicken were sweet as well as the source and I couldn't finish the dish, we special requested for "green leaf only" stir-fry vegetables as we don't like mixed vegetables, but it still came to us as mixed vegetables that taste like they have put too much sugar in it. We do love Thai dessert but we don't appreciate our main course to taste as sweet as dessert!<br/><br/>At the end of the meal we were literally have the same thought which is we will never ever come back to this restaurant again!<br/><br/>The only good point that we would like to make is the staffs are quite attentive, although the waiter could not delivered our order according to our request.<br/><br/>*The above comments are based on the experience of our first visit in this restaurant. Overall it was a total disappointment!

Just a short walk from Victoria station, Mango Tree offers a chic but affordable way to enjoy Thai cuisine in the heart of London. My friend and I received a warm welcome upon stepping in to the dark sanctuary of style and elegance. We were directed to the bar area first, where we savoured cocktails with a Thai twist – The Mango Tree fizz was particularly pleasing, made with amaretto, fresh mango, champagne and cocktail cherry. The spacious bar was perfect for pre-dinner drinks with a calm and comfortable feel to it. After our cocktails, we made our way through to dinner. It is worth noting that the restaurant was over half full on an extremely cold winters Monday night which given the size of the restaurant is pretty impressive. The restaurant is a large open plan space, which is both airy and intimate – nice high ceilings give the

Mango Tree is the place to go for a special occasion. The food overall is very good with great service to match – it’s high-end dining with high-end prices. Though they do currently offer a pre-theatre menu for two courses at £17. They also hold monthly themed events; the last was in celebration of Thai New Year. Check out their site for the next one.

The food is exceptionally high quality and interesting, with a varied menu that provides a huge amount of choice. I have visited most good Thai restaurants in London but I keep coming back to the Mango Tree time and time again. The cocktails are delicious and compliment the food. Waiters are friendly and helpful (although it can take a while to attract their attention). It's the best restaurant near Victoria Station that I've found in my three years of working in the area, and it's luxurious enough for any celebration.

Given that Thai cuisine has so little to offer I never get the point of spending too much on a Thai meal. Nonetheless I went here for dinner with a bunch of friends. The ambiance and the way the staff was dressed was a welcome sight. We had Thai fish cakes, chicken satay, spring rolls etc for starters and everything tasted just the way it should. For mains I had stir fried fish along with steamed rice, and the fish turned out to be a pleasant surprise - the tender flavor the fish meat combined with the rich taste of its sauce made my evening! <br/>The staff was pleasant and tolerant (the waitress remained unfazed even when one of us addressed her in the vernacular!)

Frankly i am not a big fan of Thai cuisine, and visiting Mango tree did'nt made me a convert either. Its a famous Thai restaurant and usually has to be booked in advance. We had booked in advance, but we still had to wait for some time for table to be made available. As we had a large group, we ordered a large variety of food. We tried whole marine life on offer including duck, fish, prawns etc. apart from chicken and pork. The food was decent but nothing stood out particularly to me. Service was pretty good and knowledgeable. Prices are on little expensive side, due to its prime location. The best part of the meal for me was tiger beer, which is a shame.

I have already dined at Mango Tree quite a few times & thoroughly enjoyed the food & experienced I looked forward to experiencing a good evening with my partner and family. Staff were very welcoming & the cocktails and drinks are were fab. My group were taking advantage of the tasting menu offer which they suggested. We were given alternatives for certain courses where chicken & pork were not suitable as we don't eat non veg that much. All went well with the first 2 courses but we all found the soup was very thai style as a Indian it was bit salty for us. All of the group enjoyed the seafood course alot. And the dessert with noodle ice cream was very different as it was made with green bananas as opposed to ripe once. All in all we all enjoyed the evening alot. We were offered complimentary tea & coffee following our feedback which was pleasantly welcomed and we were honest enough with our review. All in all we had a good evening & agreed we would visit again.

Well of the few Thai restaurants I have visited in London, Mango Tree in my opinion takes the accolades of being one of the best.<br/>Located in Belgravia, the place is very contemporary and upbeat. <br/>It has a very good seating capacity still the wait times are long and mind you it is always bustling with people. Having said that this does vouch for the popularity of the place.<br/>The staff is very warm, welcoming and quick.<br/>The menu does offer a good and interesting variety, they have made some good attempts with fusion dishes like chicken in Thai green/red curry served in pineapple, mouth watering isn't it? The 'Ian Pengelley' selection is very promising.<br/>I am not too sure about the vegetarian dishes though, one of my friends had Pad Thai and complained that she has had better.<br/>And the climax - pricey??? Ouch it does hurt your pocket as it is a bit expensive.<br/>Overall, both the quality and the quantity of the food are promising but I would visit this place only for special occasions.<br/><br/>#Feasted

Despite being on ‘The List’ for over three years, my first visit to London’s well-renowned Thai favourite Mango Tree only took place last week. Boy, have I been missing out. Not since living in Bangkok have I had such a pleasing array of authentic Thai dishes. A stone’s throw from Buckingham Palace, nonetheless. My aesthetic eye quickly realised that Feng-Shui ruled the design process for Mango Tree, resulting in a timeless, beautifully lit and carefully-considered hideaway to dine for any occasion (or, in my case, non-occasion). With incredible service from the first Sawadee ka (a pre-meditated nod to Thai traditions), the meal was a string of exemplary flavour and care. Flipping through the gargantuan menu over a Love Ocean (ketel one vodka, lavande syrup, passion fruit syrup, fresh lychee and dragon fruit, lychee juice, and fresh passion fruit juice) and a Thai Martini (wyborowa vodka, gabriel boudier lychee liqueur, fresh lemon grass, thai red chili, lychee fruit, and sugar syrup),

Mango Tree offers a real flavour of contemporary Bangkok with service from the Thai staff that is charming, efficient and friendly.

Taking a drinks writer to a restaurant with a superb cocktail bar must be the diametric opposite to taking a pescatorian to an Argentinian restaurant. And so, having taking the Hedonist with me to Zoilo it was only right and proper that I should take Simon from by-invitation to Mango Tree. However, perhaps I also need to remember that one cocktail at lunchtime, before I eat is QUITE enough for me no matter how wonderful it might be. Mango Tree is one of a small group of restaurants, the original is in Bangkok and they also have food bars in Harrods. But, it’s not somewhere I’d heard of or been to before. The Thai cocktails were very good and I have no regrets about having two, because after all life is for living. I particularly liked the pretty signature cocktail – Mango Tree Fizz which is a layers champagne cocktail with amaretto, fresh mango juice, champagne and a cocktail cherry. By the time we’d sat down to eat, I was very hungry

A la carte menus are not to everyone's liking. The food is exquisite and magnificent. There are excellent flavours and underlying tastes. And the non-alcoholic drinks are exciting and they have a certain spark which is hard to replicate. But also the alcoholic drinks are as special. They compliment the food amazingly. Overall the west end restaurant is opulent. Don't expect supermarket prices though because this type of food is difficult to replicate.

Mango Tree I used to have two friends, being a couple who lived around Victoria. I try to catch up with them as much as I can whenever there is an opportunity. One time, we decided to catch up at their turf and found ourselves at Mango Tree. A group of us met up and walked in around lunch time and we found ourselves to be the only diners there. Now, Mango Tree is really huge with numerous tables and when you find yourselves to be the only table there in such a vast space, it does lend an uncomfortable silent you can hear a pin drop vibe to the place. In fact, we only saw one other occupied table throughout our meal there. After our lunch, all I can say is that the whole meal was quite forgettable and I wasn't blown away by any of the dishes.

It's difficult to fault the food that we had, though I might chose differently next time. Big portions of fresh and authentic, well spiced Thai banqueting specialities. But you'll pay handsomely for the privilege and if not stuck in Victoria with no escape I wouldn't necessarily travel for it. The ambience, decor and tightly packed tables rule out romantic rendezvous too.

Mango Tree in Belgravia - This is a restaurant I have heard so much about for their great thai dishes and has been one I wanted to visit for a long time. Finally, I had a reservation and would finally have a taste of what all the talks are about! Upon arrival, the staff was extremely friendly and polite. We were escorted to our table and seated very comfortably in their quite big dining room. As we were going through their menu, we could see that their cocktails were very popular as the waiting staff were going back and forth with wonderfully presented drinks on their tray. So we had one! It was fun and fruitilicious!! :) We had chosen one made of lychee, passion fruit juice and grenadine - named the Director's Choice Cocktail. The starters arrived and looked absolutely amazing. The Mixed Skewers (Chicken, beef and lamb) were well marinated and nicely flavoured. My favourite one was the delicious chicken skewer dipped in the freshly made satay sauce, and then the lamb.

Never again. Way over rated. The place has a good reputation but doesn't live up to expectations. My criticisms. 1) After a friendly greeting, the service goes down hill. Throughtout the meal the service was perfunctory and by the time of settling the bill the waitress couldn't even communicate. I've had better service in McDonalds. 2) Tables are cramped together and the place is too noisy to have a decent conversation. 3) Food was ok but not worth the price. I will not return and would never recommend this to a friend. I give two stars but have could easily slip to one. Over priced, impersonal and mediocre is my summary.

It's a great Thai restaurant, where there are thai orchids, wood carvings and bronze sculptures that will remind you of sunshine, island resorts, palm trees

Mango Tree, just across the little park outside Victoria Station, is a fun Thai place to go for dinner. Their system hadn’t quite caught up with our last minute online booking, but we were happy to sit in the dark-wood bar, have a quick drink and wait bef

I’ve been to Mango Tree probably a half dozen times, and each time I either come out ranting and raving that I will never go back, or having had an awesome meal and dying to get back there. Every. Single. Time. And it alternates between the two so perfect

Working in Victoria, you seen realise that you are hardly spoilt for choice when it comes to decent non chain dining establishments. So I logged onto the Taste London website (of which I have become a member) and with a highly appealing 50% off, Mango Tre

Quality food. If you like Thai food, then this is definitely the place to go. It can get a little noisy, so probably best to go if you are out with friends as opposed to entertaining clients.

Good, but very noisy. Better for large groups than romance.

Thai with a hint of showbiz!. This place is no shrinking violet - self promotion is king.<br/><br/>The food is excellent, as is the service. Not a restaurant to visit if you're on a budget, but the investment is worth it - go on treat yourself!

Lovely Thai. This is one of my favourite Thai in London. The restaurant is modern, comfortable, clean & spacious. The staff are very polite, friendly... even a tad shy. They bow and smile a lot. Perhaps this is deliberate, to give you an authentic Thai service. Whatever it is, I felt welcomed and at ease. <br/><br/>The food is on the more interesting side, if you know what to order. Sure there are the standard Thai favourites like green curry (fragrant with the Thai basil coming through clearly), tom yam, red curry (with duck and lychee, the spice kick well balanced with coconut cream). But I was really impressed with dishes like whole fried fish with head and tail intact: good technique with moist flesh and crispy skin, not at all greasy, accompanied by a good tamarind based sweet-sour sauce. Also the steamed sea bass with 2 succulent fillets sandwiching some slices of citrus and basil, wrapped in banana leaf gets thumbs-up. Phad tai here is also above average, served aesthetically pleasing with an egg net cast over the dome of well-fried noodles, again not oily. <br/><br/>Desserts are also enjoyable, all well presented. Overall not cheap but a good choice if you fancy a more interesting shade of exotic. Toptable seems to have an ongoing 50% offer for this restaurant.
