Serithai - Köln

We visitded this place with my girlfriend in april 2016 and it was a great experience.This year the quality was equally high, and the staff was very friendly.The ambiance is cosy and traditional, the seats are very comfortable.The Gai Satee is served with a lovely mashed peanut sauce!The Pad Thai Gai was one of the best I had so far.The chicken soup and the fish in red curry sauce are also fantastic.This is our go-to Thai Place, when we visit cologne.Prepare some cash, they dont take credit cards! Prices are absolutely reasonable.

Good value for money, the restaurant is situated in a pretty insignificant street, but once you enter, you forget that you are in Germany and are surrounded by wicker furniture that convey a vague sense of Asian feeling. The menu really wide (too wide maybe?) but the food is good. Friendly staff as well. Only weird thing: the floor is somehow slippery.

Went here on a saturday night for wifes birthday, friendly prompt staff, the atmosphere is like being back in thailand. Food delisious and very plenty full we couldnt eat it all. Definately worth a visot if you like real thai food with good quality. Well priced food and drink. You can even get a chang thai beer

There was a time when we visited this restaurant on a weekly. About 20 years ago. We dropped in recently for dinner with friends...we´d heard it was still the best in the city. hhhmmm. Dread to think what the worst are like...most dishes were pretty tasty but frankly bore little resemblance to authentic Thai cuisine. The most basic of Thai seasonings were either used in minute quantities or not at all....our laab gai, well it wasn´t! it was a strange chicken salad...where were the thai herbs, fish sauce, chilis etc? the satay was in great chunks as were most other ingredients. Tl be fair the duck was crispy even if the sauce was bland. The beautiful presentation (fruit and veg carving, lovely little dishes, individual burners) we´d enjoyed in the past...also gone. Can only assume that they feel they´re catering to European tastes...sad, sad, sad. It´s easy enough to buy ALL the ingredients for preparing authentic Thai dishes in Cologne heaven only knows why they aren´t being used. Looks like it´s back to my own kitchen for our Thai food. Sigh.

We were disappointed. we have been in thailand some times, love the thai kitchen and someone recommended that restaurant. it was expensive but not good.
