Bilge Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Shouldn't be telling you this - it's hard enough getting a table as it is, but my favourite Thai restaurant in Sheffield is ALL SIAM on Ecclesall Road near the bus stop at Hunters Bar. NOTE: There are two Thai restaurants very near to each other. It is NOT the one near The Well church, Patoo something. That one has very limited choice ( Patoo thing) and quality is no better than a poor Chinese takeaway. Shocking service too, they don't understand English. Place is always empty, and very dark inside. Don't believe the Awards boasted outside. All Siam is further along nearer to Hunters Bar. Massive choice, all fantastic. You can't get a table on Saturday unless you book in advance. Booking is best during week too. Gorgeous wait staff, efficient and trad Thai behaviour. Super fresh dishes, swiftly cooked and highly decorated with carved veg on Thai patterned plates, massive enough not to skimp on actual food. Batter always thin and crispy. Superb ice cream afterward - Real pistachio, real chocolate, probably sourced from some specialist local dairy. Rich and creamy. 12 people plus tables no problem.. Recommend: Sea bass in tamarind and chillie sauce Chicken in sweet and sour sauce incl lychees All Thai curries are rich and creamy King prawns and vegetables in a sauce with ginko nuts and cashew nuts Massaman curry Could go on... That's an impressive amount of detail that you have managed to memorise from your visits as an impartial customer. I went once and found this place far too cramped and that fact alone puts me off ever going there. We went to Bahn/Ban/Baan Thai recently and found the service, food and general feel of the place has taken a nosedive. Maybe it's new management but it felt like they weren't bothered any more. Such a shame. We'll have to try all the others again now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gNil Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Looks unfortunately like Top Thai is gone - shutters down and a To Let sign outside. Does anyone know whether they've moved on or just closed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
