Siam Heritage (formerly Art of Siam) — Restaurant in Stockport

The food here was very average and clearly microwaved as our starters were soggy and arrived within a few minutes of ordering. We ordered a massaman curry and asked 3 times if we could please have the curry spicy, quite hot and when it arrived it was bland just as listed on the menu. The waitress clearly took no notice of what we asked for.

The atmosphere was rather odd. Tables very close to one another and as much as I’m an animal lover the table next to us had a dog with them which was crying and whimpering the whole time. Overall for the £70 spent the food was very average and not made fresh. We were quite disappointed as we went there on recommendation. I’m not sure if this is standard however too and service charge was already added automatically to the bill which I also found odd as this should be at the discretion of the customer. Also no option if draught beers instead overpriced bottled beers were the...

Excellent food but oh my goodness, what on earth is happening with the service?! We booked online and it was obvious on arrival they didn't have our booking. Fortunately I had confirmation and the restaurant wasn't full. We waited ages for our order to be taken and a couple of times had to go in search of staff. Beer was served with the cap still on (none of us are in the habit of opening beer bottles with our teeth :-) ) and the waiting staff were hard to find. A couple were seated next to us and left after waiting 25 minutes without anyone taking their order.

On the plus side, the food was excellent. We had a mix of food with vegetable tempura, Thai fish cakes, masman curries, Tamarind Duck and more and every dish was well presented, good portions and very tasty.

Would I visit again? Yes for the food but be prepared to go in search of the waiting staff and don't expect...

We popped into The Art of Siam in Marple recently, and we were pleasantly surprised with the restaurant's authenticity and food. The service was welcoming, and the choices were simple to make from an uncluttered menu. We decided all to go for lunch deal which was reasonably priced. My wife and I had the usual soups as a starter which were flavoursome and filled with succulent chicken. For the main, we had the typical Pad Thai Chicken and Chicken chillies Basil (Pad Kraw) which was thankfully served at just the right amount, so we didn’t need to overeat. All in all, good service, good food at a good price....
