Customer Review Summary

Diners most often point to the khao soi short rib, described as incredibly tender beef in a rich, flavorful soup with a massive portion, and another reviewer recommends the short rib outright. Close behind are the duck dishes, a roast duck red Thai and a duck stir fry called magnificent, along with garlic stir fry with egg fried rice and a pad kra pao served in a massive red pepper with a nice kick. Reviewers also praise the vibrant colours, wall art and couches in a space bigger than expected, plus friendly staff and a lunch deal with huge portions. Complaints are small but specific: the chicken in the pad chao koh was a little dry, the som tum leaned sweeter, the sizzling seafood arrived without any sizzle though still delicious, and one lunch visit found the thai tea unavailable. One reviewer wanted staff to be quicker with extra drinks and clearing tables. Several plan to return, and one diner recalls a waiter who was friendly and accommodating after a miscounted bill.

    “Great Thai food. Staff are really friendly but could have been slightly better in keeping a lookout for extra drinks/clearing tables. The som tum was a bit on the sweeter side and the sizzling seafood was not sizzling but delicious! Overall would recommend :)”

    “Nok’s Edinburgh is an absolute hidden gem! From the outside it looks like a regular restaurant, but the moment you walk in… WOW! The vibrant colours, stunning wall art, cosy couches, and spacious interior make it such a beautiful place to dine. The atmosphere is amazing, and the staff are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and attentive, making you feel right at home. The menu is fantastic, offering authentic Thai cuisine with plenty of choice for everyone. Every dish is bursting with fresh, bold flavours and is absolutely mouth-watering. 10/10 service and I honestly can’t fault this place. I’ll definitely be back!”

    “By far one of the best, authentic Thai restaurants i have been to. The main chef is from Thailand, the waitresses are from Thailand and most importantly the food delivers Thai flavours and aromas. The duck stir fry was magnificent. Trully magnificent 👌”
