Customer Review Summary
The Namjai mix sharing platter draws repeated praise, with reviewers describing dishes like Gai Yang chicken thigh and Gang Panang as fresh, authentic and delicious. Several call out the starter platter for two as a highlight, and diners note bringing their own wine or drink since the restaurant doesn't serve much beyond food itself. Value comes up consistently, with reviewers citing a full meal for around forty pounds and calling it reasonably priced. Staff are repeatedly described as polite, friendly and quick. Because the space is small, multiple reviewers stress booking ahead, warning that walk-ins may not get a table. One reviewer reports arriving on a Sunday evening to find the restaurant closed despite posted hours, suggesting the listed times weren't accurate that day. Otherwise the pattern is overwhelmingly positive, with reviewers repeatedly saying they'll be back again soon.

“Nam Jam is a fantastic little place that could be so much bigger but its kept quaint, small and absolutely fantastic. The food is exceptional and in my humble estimation worthy of recognition by some of the ponces that travel around rating places that give nothing for a high price. If I could give this place 10 Stars I would. Never expect to walk in and get a table. Book in advance.”
