About Rosa's Thai Birmingham
Rosa's Thai Birmingham is a Thai restaurant on Paradise Circus, facing the Grade I listed Town Hall and the Grade II listed Council House and Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery within the Paradise development. Table service brings dishes to diners rather than a counter order, and the kitchen turns out Thai food seven days a week. Pad kra pao and pad thai are recurring orders from the menu, and bubble tea is offered alongside. The restaurant serves delivery and takeaway daily for those eating at home, and dogs are welcome in the restaurant.

Customer Review Summary
Pad thai draws the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly calling it flavourful and well balanced, while the chicken pad kra pao and drunken noodles also earn strong marks for arriving fresh and generously portioned. Close behind, diners point to the Khao Soi and Waterfall Beef, the latter enjoyed wrapped with lettuce and sticky rice, plus the boba drinks as a favorite pairing. Service is described inconsistently: several reviewers single out individual servers as attentive and welcoming, but one Father's Day visit describes no check-ins during the meal, an automatic service charge, dry reheated sharing platter meat, and a Pad Kra Pao overloaded with chilli. Others note smaller gripes, a green curry called watery, processed-tasting chicken in the lunch set, and a morning glory portion felt too small for its price. Several mention being seated despite no reservation and treated well while waiting.

“Visited on a weekday during their lunchtime hours but ordered off the all day menu. The place inside looked ok, nothing spectacular. The lady who served us was friendly and welcoming. I went for the Gaeng Kiew Wan (Green Curry) with Pork Belly. My daughter opted for the Gaeng Dang (Red Curry), also with Pork Belly, and a side of Steamed Jasmine Rice. For drinks I fancied a beer, so a pint of Singha Lager did the trick. My daughter went for the Singha Ume Soda. My Curry had some decent flavours and a spicy kick which went well with my beer, but I felt it was a little too watery and overall not that good in comparison to ones I've had before. All in all, it was an ok experience.”

“Went to Rosa’s today and had the chicken pad kra pao - it came out super quick and was divine!! Hit all the right notes and tasted so fresh. Our server, Pat, was very attentive and didn’t leave us waiting for service. I would definitely be back and ordering the exact same dish. 10/10 no notes.”

“The boba and pad thai was amazing and the portion sizes were great. Rup was very nice and welcoming and made my first time trying thai food a wonderful experience. If you're trying Rosa's thai you should have Rup as a waiter, she was really sweet and understanding.”

“Wow. It has been a long time since I ate a pad thai that tasted this good. You know the food is going to be good when you see south east Asian people eating in the same place. Great place and definitely worth the visit. I need to come back to try other non meat dishes.”
