Dao's has really good Thai food and especially their set lunch is very popular and very inexpensive. Their service could be a little faster, but on a sunny day you can forgive little slowliness.

It’s a great place for thai food, good service and excellent food. María is a very nice waitress, considering that all of the others are very good too.

Wow. After a very sad day at my sisters funeral we stumbled across this amazing Thai Restaurant. It certainly cheered us up. The food was amazing, best we have tasted since our last visit to Thailand and the Far East. The food was authentic, not...like the trash they serve down on the coast front. If you have ever been to Thailand you will recognise the vast difference this was the real Thai food. The taste of the food and the excellent flavours and aromas were second to none. We complimented the chefs on their cooking. The staff were top notch and really made you feel welcome. We would highly recommend this restaurant can not praise it high enough as there are so many fake restaurants pretending to serve Thai food when really it is just a Chinese pretending to be Thai. Try this restaurant and you will appreciate the difference. One word of warning we walked in however as rain was forecasted people did not venture out so although it was busy there was a couple of spare tables. The staff told us this is not normal as normally they are fully booked. Therefore do not miss out please reserve your table before hand you will be more than glad that you did.More

Absolutely terrible! Allergen menu was not available and even after notifying about an allergy, the food served contaminated. The staff unwilling to help, ended up at the doctors!

We ate here twice, once at lunch and again for dinner. The food is superb, the staff are so friendly and very helpful and advised us about dishes. The restaurant is spotlessly clean. Drinks are reasonably priced. Would not hesitate to recommend.

This is a very small restaurant, about 20 seats, but the service and the food were first class . We only found it on the off chance when looking for somewhere to eat. They take bookings, we hadn't but they fitted us in. If visiting...in the busy times it's worth booking ahead.More

Wanted a different Christmas Day lunch and the food…Thai fish cakes and satay chicken to start, plus mains of amazing Massaman curry, Crispy duck, Panang curry and Papaya salad were considered by a family guest to be the best outside of several visits to Thailand...itself. Dao and the staff were also amazing as ever. Thanks to all and a Happy New year! Martin and KateMore

Initially the service was erratic but once they settled down. The food was very good the Thai fishcakes appeared hard suggesting that they had been microwaved. My only min gripe was that when they take your telephone number and say they will call regarding a...reservation THEY SHOULD CALL!More
