BRILLIANT!! Me and my partners and slowly becoming regulars and their yellow curry with coconut rice is heaven on earth! Considering my partner had never even considered trying Thai before, he cant get enough of it. Lovely atmosphere and great beer. Cant say a bad word about the place - will be gonig tonight for a takeaway and booking a table for Saturday.

Regarding comment from laura, Thank you very much for your comment, we are deeply sorry to hear about your disappointment. I think you're comments though are a little unfair for our restaurant. First, the decorating is not everyone's cup tea and unfortunately one of them is youself, we try to keep as it was when we had started the place, not over the top because at the end of the day you come for the food not decorations. Regarding your comment about the food, what dish was it that you had? We are not heating our food for the starters and serving them to the customers, we do use the microwave for warming up our plates (because we don’t use the warmer cooker, as we are only a small restaurant), If you’re not happy about your food why didn’t you make a complaint straight away instead of putting a bad comment on here. We aim to provide a quality of service and food but it's not to everyone's taste, did you enjoy your main course? Also I don't think the reviews on here are fake, why do they want to give their spare time to writing on here with something that is not necessary in their life(but if you've got some spare time you can contact the person that write the review and asked them if it's a genuine review). Definitely we are not your favourite restaurant but it’s not necessary to put a bad comment that gives us a very bad reputation that we have built for years. Just from one unhappy customer. Please if you go to eat at other restaurants and you're not happy about their place again just tell them straight away instead to putting your bad reviews. One unhappy customer and one bad comment can destroy a place that has worked hard all its life to build. Please think again before you put any comment about other restaurants.

Parts of the resturant are really tired, green melomine tables, cheap wine glasses, paper napkins, but then the food is cheap and somehow the place has a comfortable feel, a bit like going out to dinner 20 years ago, there's something kitsch and pleasant about the place. The waiter (who turned out to be the owner) was really pleasant (though the hiking trainers and suit combo was interesting!). The menu, like the decor, was dated. but the unforgivable thing about this place THEY MICROWAVED THE STARTERS. not only did i hear the ominous "ping" but the starters were rubbery, processed tasting and clearly out of a freezer and not freshly made, unforgivable. I really hope they re-do the menu and start cooking fresh because at the end of the day thats what matters. Also, there are 6 reviews on another site with 5 stars - they are so clearly written by the same person - which i suspect is the owner. don't do that, i really hope the owner checks this site and reads my review, i really really wanted Lantong Thai to be my new favorite Thai place, but you need to be cooking from fresh. (and please dont put any more fake reviews on to try and cancel out the negetive ones - listen to your customers, make the changes needed, then the genuine good reviews will come)
