"What a lovely restaurant serving real Thai food which is what we ordered. We were a large group but Sarah took excellent care of us! From the starters- the dim sums, fried prawns ans chicken satay - everything was tasty. For the mains, we had the duck, lamb basil ans fried vegetable rice, the beef basil and I enjoyed the mixed fish in red curry with red snapper, calamari and prawns! The red curry is delicious. For dessert we tried everything- the fried vanilla ice crea, the sticky toffee pudding and the plain ice cream. All excellent. I loved the garden and the beautiful murals - its serene! Oh, and the DJ on Wednesday was amazing too!"
"We had a wonderful evening at Thai Chi Restaurant. the place left a strong impression—the décor is cafe stylish, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is attentive and welcoming. The restaurant offers a great variety of cuisines, not just Thai but also Japanese and Chinese, which really adds value. They have good vegetarian options as well, which is a big plus. We tried the Thai veg rice, Tom Yum soup, and a few other dishes—all were flavorful and well-prepared. The mocktails were also refreshing and definitely worth trying. Even though it was a rainy evening and the restaurant was comfortably busy, the overall experience remained smooth and enjoyable. A must-try place for anyone looking for a mix of Asian cuisines with good vegetarian choices. Would definitely visit again!"
"Ok Mr. Bruce here again. Is like am on a role. Thai Chi by sarova. This time we went as a big family of 20 pax. I recommended Thai Chi because of the food, I forgot to take the photos of the initial meal as it was presented, but we ordered chicken, beef and lamb, and my family loved every scrape on the plate. Guys, the food speaks for itself, authentic and delicious to the last bowl. I am happy my family loved the experience. And so will you. But be careful when you order, we had a communication issue, that brought the bill extremely very high. Be very specific when you order. They took advantage on how we used the word portion with what they brought for us on the table. Our bill ended up to be more than what we budgeted for. Apart from that the food was great."
