Thai Square on the Strand review by PJH
Had dinner here last night and since I had been to another branch off Oxford Circus before I was quite looking forward to this, especially the Weeping Tiger Beef. The restaurant itself is very spacious and given that it was a hot day, the AC was a nice touch. If you sit in the back of the restaurant you can actually forget the busy Strand.
Now, on to the food. I am not sure whether they have changed the menu for all Thai Square restaurants but this was new to me but it looked pretty good. I had my heart set on the Weeping Tiger Beef and ordered it with some rice. My company had a Green Chicken Curry and a plate of Pad Thai. The Beef was a disappointment – the quality of the meat was average and it seems a completely different recipe all together. The Green Chicken Curry turned out to be far too hot but by all accounts the Pad Thai had a nice fresh taste to it.
The service was another letdown and apart from rounding up the bill a little we did not feel it merited a tip, although the food was served promptly. While eating we were not offered any more drinks, however, given that the curry was quite hot we could have done with more drinks.
Overall, I would not go there again, cannot recommend it all and just hope that my local Thai Square off Oxford Circus is still as good as I remember.
