First up, the stir-fried river noodles with prawns. This is a very authentic stir-fry, with a smokier, chewier texture that some people may not be used to, but that’s the traditional taste. The prawns were perfectly cooked and refreshing. There were also dried chili flakes and crushed peanuts on the side. Remember to squeeze some lime juice and mix it in before eating, it adds more layers of flavor. The slightly sweet taste is also well-suited to local preferences. I really care about the freshness of the ingredients, as this greatly impacts the overall impression of the dish.
Next, my green curry with chicken arrived. The coconut milk was wonderfully fragrant and it came with Thai eggplant, but the chicken was a little overcooked. Next time, I’d like to try it with prawns instead. The green curry was delicious and went perfectly with rice, with just the right portion size.

Read moreAn excellent dining experience tucked away near the Arcadian in Birmingham city centre. The portions were generous, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. I left feeling completely satisfied, without it ever feeling too heavy.
The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and comfortable, with a relaxed elegance that makes it easy to unwind. It’s the kind of place where you can take your time and really enjoy the meal without feeling rushed.
The service was a clear 10 out of 10, the staff were genuinely attentive without being overbearing, and everything ran smoothly throughout the evening. Drinks were also on point, the cocktails were really well made, balanced, and enjoyable without being overly sweet or overpowering.
The menu focuses on traditional Thai dishes, prepared with care. The flavours felt authentic and well-balanced, and while the dishes were familiar, they had that little extra finesse that made them stand out. Comforting, flavourful, and clearly cooked with pride.
Overall, The Thai Classic offers a brilliant combination of flavour, service, and setting. Whether you’re meeting friends, having a quiet date night, or simply after great Thai food in the city, it’s well...
