About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Innovative
Romantic

Thai Venue's blue frontage beckons the eye among all the shops, offices and restaurants on Brighton Road in Surrey. Inside, the sight of a white leather sofa prompts diners - typically locals and local businesspeople - to sit down and take in the relaxed atmosphere of this modern Thai with its multicoloured walls and contemporary art interspersed with seven-inch TV screens showing informative programmes about Thai culture. The menu spans classic favourites (green curry, pad thai noodles, spicy beef salad) to fiery chef's specials such as volcano chicken, soaked in brandy at your table and set alight. It's a talking point alright! At weekends, Thai Venue's polite and helpful staff swap their black uniforms for traditional Thai costume.

Seriously - I have no idea why people have rated this as a 4* - it isn’t - it’s ok but the restaurant is really tatty and the food is ok ish - certainly wouldn’t describe it as authentic or good - I went on the back of the reviews and was very very disappointed - open table needs to look at the reviews that people submit and ask themselves if it’s “a friend of the restaurant” that has written it.

We had a very nice meal and were well looked after. The staff were attentive but not intrusive. The food was of a very good standard and the portion sizes were just about right for all of us. There is a variety of food to suit all tastes and I would be surprised if you could not find something you like on the menu.

The food was nice and tasty but the very slow service was frustrating. We had to ask for drinks after about 15 minutes and then it felt like it took an age to get someone to come back for our meal order. The server was lovely and polite though but as we were one of two parties in the restaurant we would have expected quicker service. Such a shame as the food was nice.

The food was good, think the chef needs to pay a little attention when serving vegetarian spring rolls and chicken ones, being vegetarian I was given chicken spring rolls. An easy mistake but not nice.... Other than that the food was worth it and I would revisit the place if I was in the area.

We were very impressed with the private room that we were given and we loved the Hors d'ouvres - compliments of the chef. We definitely would return to try more dishes. The food was delicious and very affordable. Service was well-timed and friendly. We ordered the Birthday dessert and absolutely loved it.

Went to Thai Venue for my som's birthday as it's his favourite restaurant. We were there for 3 hours as there was only one waitress on duty for the whole restaurant! It was a disaster from beginning to end! The service was poor and the food was awful. In fact mine was inedible! My dish was supposed to have pineapple on it but I only found onions. I will not be returning which I'm upset about as I forgot to use the vouchers into bag which I was given only previous visit.

Once again excellent food and very friendly staff. Not a very big restaurant so you always get good service and attention. Ate well and will be back!
