This was the best dining experience I've had for years and the restais fully deserving of its high Google rating. We were in Gothenburg on a Saturday night and had underestimated how busy this place would be. They were fully booked and we had not reserved a table. However, the waiter told us if we came back at 1900 he might be able to fit us in. True to his word at 1900 he gave us a small corner table and we had a wonderful dining experience! The service was excellent despite them being so busy on a Saturday night. The waitress quickly came and took our order and was really knowledgeable about the menu and was able to give us some great advice about what to order. We loved the fun and bright decor of the restaurant. I ordered a massaman beef curry and it was incredible! The rest of the family had pad Thai and it was incredibly authentic. We are so grateful that we were able to have a meal at Thai Moon Kitchen and will absolutely return next time we visit Gothenburg...but we'll make sure to book a table in advance. Thanks again to the team for making it such a memorable night for me and my family. 🙌🏿👏🏿

Visited this place for dinner around 19.00, all thanks to Google as apparently it was being popped up as the highest rated Thai restaurant at Gothenburg. But, our experience didn't echo to the ratings. First of all, don't dare to go there if you don't have a booking. It took around 20-25 mins to find a seat outside. But this was just the beginning of the waiting time. Our order was taken in 5 mins, but, my God, the food came after 1 hr 20 mins. And, we were not alone in that situation. Many families, even with little kids, were basically starving and finishing their full drinks just to wait for the food. We ordered three items. The prices are very expensive, and the confusing thing was the "moon sign", full moon means most authentic whereas the lesser ones would mean more adapted to the taste. Considering the price and their moon ratings, we asked the waitress, " can you tell us more about this dish "Laab Gai"? As we are ordering two other dishes, do you think it would be too much food or do you have any better suggestions to combine different meals and get a better experience?" Guess, what she replied, "It's a Thai dish, a main course". 😒😒 A bit more info from her would be great considering a) it was indeed a salad (idk why they could not serve it earlier than the hot foods), b) we could not finish that thing because all of a sudden it was everything with different taste, c) it was damn soury. Last but not least, as we were waiting for our food, there were too many bees outside and it was getting a bit cold. So, we asked the waitress, "do you think there are empty seats inside?" (also, not to forget all GOOGLE photos would show you those colorful interior designs). Very straightforward she was, "No, this is only for the guests who pre-booked earlier". 😏🙄 So, to sum it up, it was not a good service experience at all. Perhaps, if you plan to visit the place, pre-book a table, go through the menu well in advance, and google the names to get some idea about the dish beforehand.

Love the aesthetic effort in this place and loved especially the nr 24 dish from the meny(you can see the pictures). I've tried the mango sticky rice drink too, but didn't think that it tasted that much of a flavour at all. A few of the reasons are written in the pictures too, have a look if you want more specific details on that. The service was average, but i did notice a lot of miscommunication between the workers. It took us an hour to actually get our food, and the company after us got the food first.. There was another company who sat beside us and wanted to move place because they were next to the open door and it was kind of freezing to us too. They asked but couldn't change place according to a worker, but when we asked another worker said that we could move place... And when you are in the toilet you can actually not see if the toilet doors are locked or not. So it's not really comfortable to sit in the toilet there. There were so many asking if there was someone in the toilet or had someone tell them that it was busy. But yes, at least the aesthetics are very good and ambitiously done!

The foods taste really authentic Thai. We had Tom Yum Goong which is a Shrimp soup that test sour, sweet and spicy. The taste was something I expected how it should be. The Laab Moo which is a minced pork with lime, basil, mint, onion and cucumbers served with rice was pretty good also. The shrimp fried rice was delicious too. The restaurant has a nice ambient, full of Thai decorations. The only problem we had was the waiting time for the food after ordering was way too long. We waited one hour for the food. Recommendation from the waiter there if you want to try the food, book earlier time (like before 7) or come on weekdays. All in all, I would say I like this restaurant and definitely will come back again.

This place used to be so good and I used to go here quite frequently, always taking friends visiting in town or doing some celebration here. Unfortunately things seemed to have changed for the last few months—perhaps after the management change? The service was slow, the waiter (a guy with glasses) was grumpy and hurried us to make our choice so we ended up picking something we were not sure about. The food was also disappointing. We asked for the Thai full moon “ped ped” for our food, but could barely feel our tongues tingling. Too sweet, not enough lime for some freshness and acidity. Not as savoury as it used to. Used to always give this place a 5 stars rating but need to lower it now.
