About Thai Orchid Maidstone

Thai Orchid Maidstone is a Thai restaurant on Broadway in Maidstone, set beside the river. Its all-you-can-eat menu lets a table order two dishes at a time, and the kitchen cooks each one fresh and sends it out as it is ready. The whole table has to choose the same menu, so all you can eat cannot be mixed with the set lunch menu. The Thai dishes include Tom Yum soup, Thai green curry and Pad Thai. The drinks list also carries mocktails.

Good to know

“An authentic Thai restaurant available to dine-in, takeaway and for delivery located next to the river in the heart of Maidstone, United Kingdom”

Customer Review Summary

The all you can eat option draws the most praise. Diners call it good value and describe delicious, freshly cooked dishes brought out two at a time, which one reviewer says limits food waste. Groups liked trying new dishes this way, and the BBQ, Pad Thai, curries, sesame toast and mocktails are among the items named. Staff are described as friendly and welcoming, and one party had a decorated table for a birthday. Criticism is specific rather than widespread. One group was frustrated that a whole table must choose the same menu, so three who wanted the cheaper lunch option paid for all you can eat. One reviewer had to ask repeatedly to order on a quiet Sunday afternoon and found the room hot. A vegetarian order brought very oily tempura and very runny Massaman and Sweet and Sour sauces. One diner reports the chicken in a Thai Green Curry was undercooked twice, and staff apologised and charged only for the drinks.

    “We visited early yesterday evening and great location on the riverside. Service was good, quick & friendly. We ordered Tom Yum Soup, Egg Fried Rice and Thai Green Curry. Soup and rice good, curry sauce good, but.... Chicken was under cooked, which under food safety reasons, we refused to eat, curry returned, 5 minutes later, curry returned to us. On checking the chicken, still undercooked, so meal returned and called it quits. Staff were fantastic and apologetic, they didn't charge us for the meal, just out drinks which was ok. Just disappointing that chicken wasn't cooked properly twice, which is not a good safety issue.”

    “Food was absolutely lovely and freshly cooked. Portion sizes are ideal as we had the all you can eat menu. Why have too much on the plate when each one is cooked fresh and brought straight to you. I had to knock the service because we had to ask several time for a waitress to take our order of drinks and food. There was only 3 other tables in use and staff were just stood there. If it was busier I could understand but Sunday afternoon and barely any customers I expected faster service. Just wish a fan or ventilation went all around the room as it was a hot day and I think A/C had issues. So an extra fan would have helped a bit. None of this stops me wanting to go back as the food was brilliant.”

    “Went with my son, and had a mixture of vegetarian starters and mains. Tempura was very oily, spring rolls filling not great, but sesame toast was nice. The main dishes, the sauces (Massaman and Sweet and Sour), whilst bot tasted ok, they were very very runny. Fried rice and noodles were very average. The service is very friendly, setting is good but the food really is below par.”

    “A lovely restaurant, great service, delicious food. Bit disappointed that you can't mix the menus- there were 6 of us, and the whole table had to choose all you can eat or the £14.95 menu. We were all paying individually so it's disappointing you all have to have the same. 3 of us wanted the cheaper lunch menu,and went for the all you can eat in the end. One guest is a pensioner, I'm unemployed due to being sight impaired and on a diet because of high cholesterol and don't eat big meals. So for 3 of us to pay £25.95 each plus service charge was a bit much. Having said that, the food was delicious. It's still a good price to eat as much as you want.”
