Thai Lemongrass — Restaurant in City of Edinburgh

Pandemic Infection served all round: Served on a sharing bowl with two other tables of strangers.

The food was indifferent, vegetable spring rolls were bland and little soggy, the red curry too sweet with almost raw sweet potato, the ginger chicken stir-fry was gingery but otherwise lifeless. This of course was all charged at very premium rates, the tiny ball of rice charged separately at £3.50 was clearly taking advantage.

We ate but then pointed out the lack of hygiene at time of payment. This was met with blank incomprehension, this was the moment we would now just pay, not make conversation, apparently.

The 10% service charge added automatically was the coup de grâce for our experience. No suggestion of apology or any shame at the unpleasantness, just please pay the hugely inflated price plus...

Good ambience, great food and friendly service. This place gives us an excellent dining experience. So why 4 stars? The chicken satay was great, the salad on the plate was fresh to go with the starter. But I had full of water on the plate that socked the crispy satay chicken. By the time when I had my last satay water was dripping and soggy. Among the 3 pieces of satay, 3 Rd one was unacceptable. I felt the salad was not drained before they place on the plate. I have informed to the person served as well but his answer was intentionally vinigered water for flavour which is not acceptable for me. I personally felt for the money we pay we except more. Overall experience was good. They offer delivery as well. Alcohol free selection...

Ordered takeaway. Never again.

Spent £50 on a portion of spring rolls (3 small rolls for £7) 2 soups and 2 mains. Delivery driver wouldn’t bring it upstairs to our flat so had to go down and get it. Soup was ok, despite a good portion of it covering the bottom of the bag. The mains had 2 or 3 small bits of meat and the pad Thai was a tasteless clumpy mess.

Probably the worst takeaway food I’ve had and ironically one of the most expensive

*To add to the reply from the restaurant - instead of concentrating on the fraction of my complaint concerning the delivery & 3rd party driver, perhaps concentrate on the area you do have control over. The quality of your overpriced and underwhelming...
