Panya Thai - Christchurch, Barbados

This is my 2nd time here, we got the chance to try more food this time because we came as group of 7. The service is wonderful, the atmosphere is cozy and lovely.However the food is very salty. We ordered Tom Kha soup, Pad Thai, crab fried rice we didn’t expect to get crab stick fried rice as we always have fresh crab meat in other Thai restaurants , whole fried snapper, etc. As Asian, we get used to fish sauce and tamarin too but this is too much. What a shame !Hope you can read this and adjust the seasoning. Would love to be back to support !

We bought Thai Iced Coffee and a bunch of items for dinner. When I came in for take out, they forgot to include the coffee and a decent amount of rice for all the dishes. The person that went in back to get the order items was on the phone having what sounded like a personal conversation the whole time I was there, maybe 10 mins-ish, so I can see where there may have been a lapse. I was in a rush trying to pay and get home with the hot food and didn't realize they never gave it to me until I made it home. (Always check before you leave. Ugggh)The biggest issue was, I got home and tried calling over and over again to see if they could refund me or get the coffee another time. The line was busy for the entire final hour of them being open. I called 12 times over the course of the hour. The line was busy the ENTIRE hour. Presumably that same call they were on when I got there to pickup the food.Anyway, decided to say forget it, but ultimately they forgot to provide items that I paid for and were unavailable for me to get in touch for a refund or credit to my next order.Also, make sure to ask for rice, we only got one tiny box (seriously, very small....not a normal take out box, a tiny one... for 2 large portions of curry. 2 curry orders was plenty for 3 people, but we ran out of rice before we even finished 1 curry. It certainly wasn't enough rice for 3 people. We made a joke, because it was essentially enough for each person to have one large tablespoon scoop of rice. We ended up having to cook our own rice to go with the rest.Overall, the food tasted great, especially the curry and the Tom Kha Kai was pretty good. The Chicken Satay was just okay. Just be sure to ask for more than a single tiny box of rice for multiple dishes and double check your order has all the items before you leave.

Not sure what was better, the food or the service. Everything was absolute perfection and they made my brother's birthday so very special. I can't say nice enough things about the staff who were so kind and attentive. I strongly recommend everyone give this gem a try!

I highly recommend this place.. The food is delicious.. The service is excellent, the atmosphere is super nice and cozy.. It's like you don't want to leave this place.. We made a long table ?.. Reasonable prices.. Everything about this I Liked Restaurant..?? Parking: We Park Perfectly..?? Kid-friendliness: I don't have children, but there were children in the place...?? Wheelchair accessibility: I didn't notice so many details... I'm sorry ?

Edit, after our second visit this place is gross. The pad Thai is drenched in a thick sweet sauce. The soup is flavorless and small and the place is filthy. The service is nonexistent one woman who is rude.Atmosphere: I know we don’t go to a Thai restaurant for the ambience, but this is a very depressing atmosphere. In a run down strip mall, no music playing, place is dark and feels cold. It was very dirty, feels unsanitary.Food: now for the real reason you come, we were excited as we heard the place was good. But nothing was the best version of that dish we ever had. Nothing was amazing. I’d say it was just your average yummy Thai food. Most dishes checked the box. The green curry was not good very watery like a thin soup with very little meat.This is not a place you would drive out of your way for, but if you are craving Thai food and local it will hit the spot.The main review is a guy claiming it’s worth the drive from Boca, IF this is worth a 45 min drive to you, you clearly have never had amazing Thai food. It’s mostly average in a very dirty run down environment.
