About My Thai
My Thai is a Thai restaurant at 26 York Pl in Leeds, set in a basement reached by a flight of steps down from the street. The menu works in two stages. Guests pick vegetables, tofu or a protein, then choose the flavour it comes with. Massaman curry is among the mains, and starters include corn cakes and pork dumplings. The dining room is small and lined with wood. This Leeds restaurant is an outpost of a chain that also runs a takeaway side.

Customer Review Summary
Massaman curry is the dish reviewers return to most, with the Khao Soi, a crispy chicken with garlic and chilli sauce, and a red curry chicken also named. Tamarind duck, pork dumplings, fish cakes and corn cakes come up as favourite starters and mains, and one group singled out the starter plate. Portions are described as huge or generous, and diners call the food delicious, yummy and packed with flavour. Several mention quick, friendly service even when the basement room is busy, and one reviewer says a waitress brought out a birthday cake with candles. Lunch is described as fast enough to get back to work. The main trade-off is the space: several point to the steps down, one says the top step is higher than the rest, and two call the toilets very small, with one larger man saying he had to go in sideways. Several suggest booking, though one diner without a reservation was squeezed in by the owner on a busy Friday night.

“I’ve recently visited My Thai, York Place and found the service, food and experience 10/10. The waitress who served us made our visit extra special by bringing us out a birthday cake and candles; she was very friendly and welcoming!! Would definitely recommend visiting and would re-visit next time I’m in Leeds!”

“My Thai at The Old Steps is a tiny little place with a big personality. I am lucky enough to work about a 1 minute walk from this place, and often take advantage of this to pop in for lunch. During lunch hours, they're always super quick so you're not late getting back! Have also visited in the evenings as well as occasionally ordering delivery from here, and it's always delicious. I always get the corn cakes and either the massaman curry or the crispy chicken which comes with a yummy garlic and chilli sauce.”

“It's a little basement spot, but it's super cosy and always packed. The delicious Thai food and the lively atmosphere make it feel really authentic. I recommend booking for lunch to avoid disappointment. They offer takeaway service too.”

“if I am giving 5 star for the food, I am giving 5** for the service from Corn, he is super amazing and gorgeous, probably providing the best customer service but not charging any service fee! The food are super yummy and tasty, and portion are so generous!! Especially the starting plate, our group enjoy it so so so much. if you come to Leeds, don't forget to try this hidden gem restaurant and meet lovely Corn!”
