The Old Siam - Newcastle upon Tyne

Visited 14/3/17 - Group of 8 people from work. Food Standards' Agency Rating: 5/5. We chose (after much deliberation): Menu C £24.50 per person - For

We loved this restaurant, very authentic food, lovely staff and the wine portions were very generous.

My fiancé and I came here for dinner on a Friday night - we did book ahead which I'd recommend as it does fill up on weekends.

Visited old siam for first time in few months always a favourite of mine. Don't know if they have changed chefs but quite a few changes . Asked for prawn crackers different only third of what you used to get . Starter tom yum seafood tasted nice but gone is the king prawn the big green mussel in shell. Main meal of stir fry chicken was not spicey like it used to be, had none of the usual Thai veg just couple slices carrot small spring onion . No fresh chilli on top chicken only one third portion of what it was . Used to have large plate separate serving plat with main plus rice ., now served on small plate . Staff as usual very nice but very disappointed with what used to be one of my favourite meals there

I visited Newcastle for the first time and stayed on the quayside where I found this fantastic lttle resteraunt, My wife started with the Thai Fish Cakes which were succulent and delicouse whilst I opted for the spicey tom yum soup, For the main I went for the maseman curry which was spicey and rich, my wife went for the Thai Red curry. We go to Thailand quite often for our holidays and this is the first time that I have found a resteraunt that serves such beautiful dishes that take you straight back to the land of smiles. The next time I visist newcastle I will make a bee line for this excellent resteraunt
