The Chef reccomendAmazing food - the Chef's Prawn and Pineapple special was delicious. Brilliant service and great atmosphere - what's not to like!
Stumbled across this by chance while staying at a local hotel. Although we turned up on a Saturday Evening without a reservation, the staff were very accommodating. We waited in the bar are with drinks for about ten minutes until a table was ready. Great extensive menu and wine list. We opted for a set banquet (B I think at £35 per person) and it was fantastic, great selection, great portions and fantastic food. One of the best Thais I've had in a very long time. Thank you for looking after us ..... we can't wait to return on our next visit to Newcastle
This was our first visit to this restaurant. We booked somewhere special as it was our daughters 50 th Birthday. We got a lovely welcome from the staff who led us to our table. Unfortunately we were put next to what seemed to be a hen party, bad decision. The noise from these fuelled up girls was horrendous....we couldn’t even hear each other speak. We ask to be moved to another table but they said they didn’t have one. We decided to leave and go to a place we were familiar with but alas another table was found to accommodate us. We yet again had to complain then someone went to try and calm the party down as it was spoiling it for others. Personally I think they should have a private room for big parties so they can enjoy without spoiling it for others. The staff were lovely as was the food and presentation but alas our evening had been damaged by then.
I do really enjoy Thai food and have experienced it all over the world, including in Thailand many times but I have to admit, this is the best I have ever had. We visited Mantra Thai for my husbands birthday and enjoyed Chicken Satay, Vegetable Spring Rolls and Papaya Salad for starters followed by Pad Thai and Chilli and Basil Chicken and everything was absolutely delicious and the staff were very attentive but not intrusive. I would highly recommend this restaurant, we will certainly be back.
I visited recently as a party of four, and despite the restaurant being very busy, we were not packed in and the ambience was really nice. We had a variety of food between us and it was really enjoyable however, at the pricing point of the menu, it was disappointing to see that the chicken dishes we were served contained reformed tasteless slices of ‘meat’ which is what you would expect in a supermarket ready meal, not in a restaurant of this stature. I was really disappointed at this - fresh chicken is a cheap meat and spoiling a tasty meal with this cheap rubbish was surprising. I was also annoyed that two bottles of wine I ordered was not what was received and unsurprisingly was significantly more expensive and wasn’t noticed until we received the bill. I will give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt that it was a genuine mistake and perhaps I should have checked I had the correct bottle, but the wine list was removed immediately after ordering. The menu prices had also increased significantly since my last visit, however, despite the niggles, the food in general was tasty and enjoyable. Furthermore the price of the drinks may be seen as many as excessive. I accept that all restaurants have a decent mark up on drinks as it is an important revenue stream, however, I thought they were over the top. This restaurant is a really good option, but if they are increasing the prices, then you would expect the ingredients to match.
Gracious service, wonderful food. Overall an enjoyable experience. Can recommend and will be returning.
Another visit to this amazing place! Lovely staff gorgeous atmosphere and tasty food! We came for restaurant week quality was amazing We love coming and will be back soon!
Great food great atmosphere. Too bad there is no sticky rice and mango, or any other Thai dessert available. Just boring Western stuff. Other than that excellent.
Ambience Taste and Hospitality all ticked Very good value for money Very tasteful and catered to individual palate with attention to fine detail Very freshly made with all fresh ingredients One of the best Thai restaurant I visited over 27 years all over the world
We had a delicious meal here during a little break in Newcastle Quayside area. It was beautifully presented and made from really quality ingredients. We shared satay skewers and prawn & chicken toast to start, followed by duck with tamarind and thai red curry. All were lovely. The staff were faultless, really friendly and polite. We had a really enjoyable evening, thank you!
My partner and I came here as a birthday meal out for myself for the first time after hearing lots of good things. My partner ordered the lamb shank and Penang sauce and I ordered one of their stir frys. The menu suggested the stir fry would be very hot spiced but I was assured by one of the lovely waitresses they could make it medium spice to accommodate my needs. The food was amazing! Probably one of the best meals we’ve ever eaten in Newcastle. The lamb shank fell off the bone, the sauce was stunning and my stir fry was cooked perfectly, so many flavours to it, I didn’t want it to end. Along with the gorgeous food, all members of staff were incredibly friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was classy making the meal feel really special. We will 100% be returning!
Really nice venue , wonderful staff and great food . The prawn tom yum soup was the best & our mains were excellent too will go back
Fantastic place to eat and great ambience. Food was excellent and service matched it. Six starters and mains with a few puds and naughty coffees. All of it was really tasty and well worth the money
We had a table booked for NYE. I have to say the food was lush and the entertainment was awesome. We were mesmerised by the cool Live Spanish guitar although the pieces were quite short. Lovely staff. Will definitely recommend this place.
I visited this restaurant yesterday with my girlfriend and enjoyed my time very much. The weeping tiger was very tasty and actually the level of service was fast considering how busy it was. Also, I really enjoyed the live music, the thai dancers were really fun and the violinist played amazingly, however the sound was quite poor as we were sat right at the back of the room. All in all, i would definately return here again as I had a very pleasant night.
Fantastic place, everything was perfect. We had 4 Delicious starters and the equally amazing mains: duck curry and choo Chee we’re both out of this world. Wine list is good and paired well. Excellent value. We will be back.
Lovely dinner. Great service, amazing food, chilly but elegant atmosphere! Will definitely come back
Visited here last Boxing day, for dear old Mums 86th, so here we are a year later and it was even better. Food superb. Staff very attentive. Evening was made by the table of 20 next to us. Thanks for a great night

Really nice restaurant down by the river. Authentic food, friendly staff. The ceiling lights were shining right onto our table, but they were really helpful in letting us re-direct them! Soft shell crab, green curry, pad thai all delicious.
