Sawadika Fine Thai Restaurant - London

The food at this restaurant is fantastic, but unfortunately, the service leaves much to be desired. I arrived 10 minutes early to a lukewarm reception, and a surly waiter inquired about the arrival time of my friends (who were all punctual). Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, I had to request a drink three times before receiving it. To top it off, one of our main courses never made it to our table, and we were treated as if we had not even placed the order, despite the waiter having written it down and confirmed it. It took asking for the bill four times before we finally received it. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and we do not plan on returning. It's a shame, because the food is truly outstanding.

The food was delicious. I ordered a less spicy dish but it was served spicy and with several red peppers. It was also very expensive, as our bill for 2 adults, 1 starter, 2 main dishes, 2 rice dishes, 2 drinks, and 1 dessert came to £95. This was too much for the overall experience.

Especially the sea bass with herbs and cashew’s is delicious

The service was average and the food was hit or miss at this restaurant. The veg pho lacked flavor, while the tom yum soup and mama noodles were not up to par. However, the Thai red curry was impressive. Many diners were ordering the rice in a pineapple shell, indicating it was a popular choice. Unfortunately, the staff did not offer any suggestions. Most curries contained fish sauce, leaving limited options for vegetarians aside from the disappointing veg pho. Additionally, the beef pho was unavailable during our visit. Overall, the experience was not terrible, but the food could definitely be improved.

Good and tasty meal this was our second time and we enjoyed it as much as before the pineapple fried rice was superb and so was the morning glory and the salt pepper squid sticky rice mango dessert was fantastic will be back again kudos to the chef and excellent service staff
