Yuu Taley Restaurant — Restaurant in Nerja

Just had dinner here after hearing good things about it. We ordered the chicken satay and tempura veg to start, this took a while to come out as did everyone else’s food around us. The tempura veg was full of grease, so much so I couldn’t eat more than 3 pieces. I could tell that the waitresses were under stress due to the busyness so I decided not to complain. The waitress took my almost full plate away and asked no questions, at not one point did anyone ask if the food was okay. We then waited a significant amount of time for the mains to arrive and from my seat I could see the kitchen; I had ordered coconut rice and watched the chef pour cold coconut milk from a tin into a bowl of rice. The waitress proceeded to bring over the rice with our mains. I tried it and it was inedible, rice swimming in cold milk - not how I have ever had coconut rice before. I asked if I could please swap for the jasmine rice which she said was fine and came back promptly. Our mains were absolutely fine in terms of taste but by no means 5* Thai food. When we asked for our bill the coconut rice was still on it, I queried this with the waitress who told me that because I had tried it I had to pay for it but obviously I couldn’t have known it would be inedible without trying it. They do not care about providing good service or good food. Simply a...

It’s hard to find a good Thai in the area of Nerja and Torrox. Tried several places and this is far by best in the flavours of Thai/Laos food.

Prices are quite high for Spanish standards, main dish ~€16) and the portion is quite small (might be just enough for 1 person but not for someone who has a big appetite). For that price you can almost eat for two in Amsterdam + authentic taste!

What I noticed, the food come non-spicy by default. When you order, they don’t ask if you would like it spicy or less. I like spicy and I’m spoiled with authentic Thai food. Next time, I must not to forget in ordering it spicy.... to get a better judgement of the food.

Hospitality is good in restaurant and delivery as well. However with delivery, they should advice delivery time as it took a while after we ordered by phone. Hungry tummy impacts the mood and its better to have a time expectation to look forward to.

I would rate lower for the price vs portion size but because this place taste better than the other toko’s I tried.... I give a 4 ⭐️

Note: Wai Wai Wok, the restaurant next door is from same owner. Main dish €9,5 and portion is a little bit lesser than Yuu Taley. For delivery or take away, you can combine the menus...

Five of us went for a meal on 7th June 2024. One of the chicken meals was not cooked properly and we returned it to the kitchen, the meal came back and was still inedible. The person ate the vegetables only. We asked for the desert menu and were told the kitchen was closed. When we received the bill we refused to pay for the uneaten meal. The manager told us the meal had been eaten and implied we were trying to dodge paying. We asked to speak to the owner who was sat at the bar. The owner did not come to our table. The manager removed the cost of the meal and stated ‘ if you choose not to come back it’s not my problem’. We live locally and have eaten there several times. We won’t be eating there again, the service is awful and the manager is rude and confrontational. The menu says … if you are not happy with your food speak to us! Yes and you are treated appallingly. The meal should have been replaced not thrown back in a pan...
