Mona’s Thai &asian Cuisine

Having got back from three weeks in Thailand just one week before going here I can vouch for its authenticity! We had chicken satay, red curry, chilli and basil stir fry and of course papaya salad, spicy… washed down with Chang beer and good value white wine. It was my birthday meal and they looked after us really well. Delicious food, friendly and helpful staff, and it was very busy so make sure you book.

Had an impromptu visit to Mona’a this evening and was lucky enough to be accept in without a reservation. Service and atmosphere was impeccable, really friendly front of house and joyful locals who shared good tips around other local restaurants. The food was incredible, completely unfaultable. Full of authenticity and fresh flavours - best food I’ve eaten in a long while.

We were pleased that we booked Mona’s for the first night of our holiday. The place is quite small and cosy, so I’d say booking is advisable. Unfortunately they turned away some people because they were full … a good sign for those of us lucky to have a table (in that it appears to be very popular). The staff were very friendly and got a beer to my table quickly while I waited for the others in my party to arrive. I recommend a large Singha to get the party started. There were 4 of us. We had starters and main. I thought the vegetable tempura starter perhaps could have had the batter a tiny bit crisper and cooked a little longer. Overall, my brother’s verdict was “delicious” and I agreed. I had a red curry for my main. They gave me a choice of mild or spicy, and I chose spicy. What I enjoyed was that the sauce was full of flavour and the heat built over time. The sticky rice came in a little bamboo holder, which kept it nice and hot.This was a great idea meaning you could serve yourself the rice in small portions over the course of the meal, and each time it was a good temperature. All in all, an enjoyable dining experience. Thank you Mona and Co.
