Update. ALL reviews on Just Eat are gone and the restaurant is listed as new! Under new management?
This used to be our go to Thai. Never again will I order. Food was absolutely vile. And tiny portions to boot. For the price you would be better ordering from McDonalds. The tempura veg wasn’t tempura. Thick gloopy oil sodden batter to try and bulk out the rather pitiful veg that was hidden. The ribs were full of fat and inedible. Looked boiled then griddled last minute. The prawn toasts were ok. But for over £7. No. All the starters are no longer in containers. Now delivered in foil lined bags. So the starters sweat in their own grease. Nice. Needed 10 minutes in the oven on a rack just to render the grease out. Dipping sauce pots were 1/4 full. The beef stir fry Pad gra pao was also awful. God knows what beef this was as it was completely inedible. Sauce was ok if slightly oily. Panang prawns was ok. Predominant taste was coconut milk. 6 medium size prawns for £13.25? No. Total rip off. We ordered some separate plain noodles. 1/3 of container full. Dry as a bone. £4.70? I’ve no idea what’s happened to this restaurant. It was the best in Newmarket. Obviously under new direction and trying to recoup lost Covid pounds. Such a shame. My advice is avoid at all costs. Don’t waste your hard earned...

(Four are normal per serving. The six matched my expectations for the shrimp to noodle ratio!) Upcharge was £2. The chicken had a smooth even spice heat and the al la carte garlic rice portion was flavorful and generous. Service was swift and attentive; the staff genuinely concerned about diner...
Read moreFirst time at Khobkhun this Sunday and enjoyed the all you can eat menu.
Was a shame to see it so quiet because the service was fantastic and the food was superb! I will be returning in the near future.
I thoroughly enjoy that they cook each item to order opposed to having trays of food out.
One suggestion would be to mix the menu up slightly, perhaps by including dishes that use ingredients that are heading out of date sooner than others whilst maintaining most of the current all you can eat menu. That would be very cool and offer a change as I can see us coming at...
