About Old Siam
Old Siam is a Thai restaurant at 6 Parliament Square in Hertford, furnished with teak tables and antique timber pieces that the Thai owner imported from Thailand.

Customer Review Summary
The caveats are specific. One three-star reviewer found the prawn Pad Thai greasy, like old cooking oil, and the red curry tasting only of paste and coconut milk, with no lime or fresh coriander, though the chicken satay and spicy coconut soup were nice. Another says some dishes are expensive for what they are, and a third notes that parking is not easy. Even the critical reviewer called the staff welcoming and the service quick.

“We both had a lovely anniversary lunch at Old Siam. Great choices for us both, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals, including the vegan options. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, and the staff were fabulous throughout. We really enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning.”

“Hands down the best restaurant in Hertford. Consistently good every time I come. The atmosphere is fantastic, especially if you book the little dining booths in the back. The food is really special and the staff are attentive and friendly.”

“We went as a group, most of us had never had Thai food before. So we ordered two set meals to try. It was amazing! We all acknowledged that it was the best food experience we have had in a long while. We will go again. Thanks for your great service.”
