Old Siam — Restaurant in East Hertfordshire

The restaurant was nicely decorated and the staff were very welcoming and service was quick, however the food was mediocre.

We started with chicken Satay and spicey coconut soup, which were both quite nice, so we were looking forward to the mains of prawn Pad Thai and red Thai curry.

The Pad Thai had a greasy taste, like old cooking oil and was lacking in any Thai fragrant flavours, I found it just bland and sloppy. The red curry was the same really, it just tasted like red curry paste with coconut milk, there was no zesty lime or fresh Coriander, I can definitely cook better Thai food at home.

The presentation was good and the lunchtime menu was reasonably priced but the main courses were lacking authentic Thai...

I made him aware of my dislike of he's manners and made my way out, there was no answer from him just a look and I left. Be aware of the disctionary charge and don't be bullied by the...

Been going here for a few years but last nights experience has put a stop to that. Had a table booked for 7 arrived on time ordered our meals apparently we had a 2 hour slot. First they got our starters wrong so a delay in bringing it out we asked for water and the waiter poured in to our old glasses which we were drinking coke from. We asked for clean glasses which never came. Food was very bland unlike previous times. After our meal we were given the bill without asking we wasn’t even asked if we wanted dessert or coffee felt very rushed. Really disappointed with the service will not be going back again as you treat you’re customer...
