Thai Orchid - Maidenhead

Visited this restaurant while travelling for business as the reviews were fantastic. Dinner totally justified the exceptional reviews that others have posted, the service was exemplary, and the food was fantastic. The lamb pad prig was absolutely delicious with a beautiful balance of flavours and spice. Only disappointment is that I don't live in the area!!

First time here after hearing good things. Parking was impossible so had to park up the road. Nice welcome from I assume the owner on arrival. Place is quite small and compact. It was a buffet on a Sunday lunch for a very reasonable 20.00. They had four food buffet areas with an excellent choice of soups, starters, mains and deserts. All were excellent with the highlights being the 2 types of soup. Seafood and Thai red type. The pork belly with crackling. And peking Crispy duck. Good selection of drinks also. You get a real family feel about the place. Confirmed while I was watching the father (I assume) spending 15 minutes to remove a child’s toy car which had got stuck behind the radiator. Much to the young child’s delight. The owner and the child both seemed genuinely happy when it finally fell out. Things like that I feel make a difference !! Cannot fault the place. Only negative is (1) it can get booked up. (2) parking. Car park was totally full and just got lucky finding a space on a side road 4 mins walk up the road. Highly recommended and Will definitely return.

Thai food is one of our favourite cuisines. So, when we moved to Maidenhead, we were excited to discover that there were several Thai restaurants in town. In London, we had been spoilt for choice when it came to Thai restaurants, and the standard of food selection was great but the greatest I’ve had. I ordered the following from the menu which I’ve provided pictures of food and prices: #9 POH PIAH TOD #10 GOONG HOR PAR #25 M CHICKEN #30 NEUA GATA #106 KHAO NEOL #107 COCONUT RICE The prices were slightly higher than we were used to paying for Thai food in London. The service was excellent and the food was not be the best Thai food in the UK, but it's definitely worth trying if you're in the area. On Sundays, they offer an all-you-can-eat buffet for just 20 pounds. This is a great deal, for all the selections they have listed Overall, we had a good experience at Thai Orchid and would recommend it to anyone looking for a new place to try Thai food.
