Had a dinner here on a Monday evening in August. We booked but am sure we could have got a table (for 3) if we hadn’t. We were seated and handed the food and drinks menu. 3 Singha beers later and we went to order. The server explained really well that all food would come together/as soon as ready so if we wanted starters (“small plates”) we should order those and then order main course later. We did that and were glad we did as the small plates were not small. We had spring rolls and calamari. All delicious. Then we ordered main course and had ginger beef and Thai red curry and a selection of rices. All delicious. The best Thai beef I have had for a long time. Really juicy, fresh and tasty. Would fully recommend you try this place.

What a find! Come out of Convent Garden Station and this is tucked around the corner, away from the busy main street, but still with the atmosphere of being in the heart of London. We were met with really friendly staff, espeaclly Mary-Grace, who seated us anywhere we chose ( we did arrive just before the lunch rush, so this was possible). The service was timed just right through the whole of our visit, not too slow and not too fast, you do not feel rushed to finish and leave. We were a booking of 4 adults but is a family friendly restaurant and whilst we were there, there were lots of families with young children. They supply paper and caryons as well for the kids. The beers as you can see are large, and the cocktails were made well and tasted great. Prawn crackers were brought to our table with sweet chilli sauce to nibble on whilst we viewed the menu. We decided to order 7 items from the menu and then we all shared, like a tapas style meal. The food was cooked to a very high standard and good size portions. We finsihed off with a coffee. I have been to many Thai restaurants and this has to be top of my list. I will be telling everyone about it and will be back. Thank you for a great visit Busaba 😊
Photo doesn’t do it justice. Best Thai place around. I been coming here often and I get songkhla beef with rice or pad Thai both are great. Today I tried grilled half chicken and it didn’t disappoint. The vibe atmosphere, value for money and portions are great.
Most delicious thai food in London!! Love the chilli beef rice and the good atmosphere. Will definitely revisit. There are also student discount in weekdays.
Food was delicious! Very well spiced and cooked. Lots of choices if you’re vegan. There was no wait for a table. Nice chill decor inside. Service could have been better as we did wait about 10 minutes to pay. But I’d definitely still eat here again.
I love Busaba! If you’re craving an upscale Thai dinner at a reasonable price, here you go.
Beautiful calm almost zen-like restaurant in the middle of Soho. Keen to check out somewhere a bit different and not one of the major chains. Got a walk in table for 2 with no wait and you have the choice of joining others on a big table or sitting looking out the window side by side. We chose the latter for no other reason than we like people watching! Good selection of food but we settled on starters of thai fish cake and pork ribs and a couple of pad Thai. I had the Jay (veggie) and my wife the Classic. Both arrived piping hot and delicious. The prawn crackers were also top quality. Great venue, lovely food and friendly efficient service and all in a little over £70 with a bottle of wine and a tip (incl in the bill). Would definitely recommend.
Food tasted divine. It was a good sized portion and I felt full to bursting. The combination of spices and the presentation was very appealing visually.The staff were accommodating and ensured that items were prepared for the palate of the diner. A dish we requested was served mild rather than hot as the finer was unable to eat 'spicy' food. The dining experience was comfortable and we were not hemmed in by others and did not feel rushed to complete our meal. Overall a good first experience. The restaurant was recommended to me, and I myself would not hesitate to recommend to others. I did not use the bathroom as this was downstairs (to be fair, I did not enquire whether they had a WC for disabled persons, I just could not manage the stairs and left it at that).
Lovely Thai restaurant in an elegant neighborhood. The food was well prepared and served. The taste was a Wow. The prices are really fair ! Really enjoyed dinning there.
Average standard Thai food. Portions are smaller than expected but tasted okay. Quite popular though.
