No member of waiting team seemed to be taking the lead to take orders, remembering the orders, making sure table had everything that was ordered. Everything was reactive on their part - we had to constantly chase/ask when we needed things. Even getting two scoops of vanilla ice cream for two young children caused them no end of difficulty. Took a ridiculous length of time to come and was asked for at least four times - and that was me holding back. Quickest thing they did was get the bill and make sure it was paid. And this was a 5pm/early evening booking so NOT busy.

Excellent ! Nourriture Exclellente(poulet pat thaï, cocktail (passionata)... excellent, dessert (cheesecake mangue) à tomber par terre !! Super moment dans un cadre très sympathique. Les prix sont en adéquation avec la qualité qui nous a été offerte.

I'm a big foodie and have been to many restaurants but this resteraunt on first is impression NOTHING LIKE the pictures on the website it is wAAAAAAay too small...air conditioning was broken...we were shown to a table up the stairs then we were asked why we were up the stairs and had to come back down to another table. Service was very clumsy. Seating was very uncomfortable staff didn't know the menu and when it came to order the second bottle of wine they had run out and when it came to all three of our party ordering pudding they had also run out of the chocolate pudding. The waiter had a huge white head spot on his face which was incredibly off putting and he was completely incompetent didn't have clue clearly. The fire or burglar alarm went off off when we got our starters which was again awful the noise was piercing.. The lighting is way too bright and the tables are so close to each other that you can hear everyone's conversations. Staff were hovering around watching us eat almost waiting to whisk the plates away before we were finished eating. It certainly was NOT a lovely 5 star place as we had expected...kids were running around and people seemed to just walk in were able to get a table without booking which means it's not exclusive as it tries to portray on the site. I was there with my uncle and aunty for their anniversary and I won't be returning. I don't know how it has managed to get into Beauchamp Place Knightsbridge doesn't fit atall. It's a cheap taxi eatery that charges Knightsbridge prices. We could of had better service in pizza express. I was Unbelievablely disappointed all round and if I hadn't been there to treat my family to dinner I would of walked out on first impressions and gone to the Buddha bar. Don't waste your money going here.

We really liked this place. The most important thing, the food, was fabulous. We opted for their 'banquet' set menu, which had a lovely balance of prawns/chicken, beef and fish, with flavours that were allowed to shine through without being mugged by superfluous fiddling. The service was friendly and obliging, albeit it was a Sunday afternoon and the place was largely empty and they had plenty of time to look after us. The prices were stiff but fair, for what was excellent food in the not exactly cheap environs of Beauchamp Place.

Very nice people, and a good looking menu. Sadly, apart from two of the 5 starters, the whole meal was bland, and just not of the standard we should have been able to expect. The main courses tasted as if they were made with jars of sauce thrown in. It must cost a lot to be in Knightsbridge, but on this standard of food they won't pay the rent. Thai food can be great in some of the restaurants in London. Sadly this is not one of them.

The service and the ambiance were good. Unfortunately the quality of the food was very disappointing, we had the banquet and most of the dishes were unappetising. Wouldn't go again, or recommend it.

Service is always great and love the food at Patara. It's a nice and cosy restaurant so perfect for when it's cold outside and the ambience is very calm. I'm vegetarian and there is a lot of choice - my favourite it the vegetable and tofu Thai red curry and the mango and mushroom salad to start!!

Very disappointed since we were last there. Didn't offer the menu online that we wanted, as we were informed that they strangely didn't have the ingredients for it, which was very unusual as all the separate dishes were on the main menu! Guess they just didn't want to give us that set menu, but hey Patara, if you don't want customers to have it, don't offer it, as then there can be no confusion or disappointment! As there restaurant was empty anyway, we headed back to Paddington early and went and had a great curry there instead! Would go back to the one in South Kensington tho, as IMO it was better anyway. Knightsbridge or not, you shouldn't want to have your restaurant empty and not have the opportunity to take a decent amount of money anyway, even if you end up substituting some of the courses.....

Delicious food and very pleasant service. There's a lovely spicy smell when you walk in which stimulates the appetite. The first courses are generouse and can be shared.

The taste of the food was not authentic Thai as the spiciness was missing. The restaurant needs an upgrade as this is one of the top Thai restaurants in London.

Managed to book a table last minute for dinner, after Christmas shopping. Very welcoming staff and interesting selection of dishes alongside the usual recognised menu. Food more expensive than other Thai places but overall, the food was tasty and the decor was lovely so definitely worth it!

Ambience was good. Table was well positioned. Staff were attentive and helpful. Food was good. The only issue was that, given the lack of lighting and the print colours and sizing used made it difficult to read the menu and wine list.

What a delightful place to have lunch! It's on the rather charming Beauchamp Place, you walk in and it feels like a haven. Soft music, Thai decor, delicious food - I easily passed a couple of hours here and left feeling relaxed. The service was friendly and genuine, although a little slow at times. But our food and drinks arrived in good time. I would recommend the Banana dessert with the cream/ice cream/nuts. Just divine!

All of us enjoyed the food , especially the seafood; the beef was perhaps a little lost in the slightly too strong sauce. Service attentive and, great joy, they did not seem to be hurrying us, rare these days and the place was far from empty. A slight delay in the main course was pleasantly and apologetically dealt with.

Wonderful experience,best thai restaurant in London promised. Delicious food paired with high-standard service. The curry is a must-try dish as it is much better than other chain-thai-restaurants. Coconut rice with mango would be another reason for me to visit again. Highly recommended.

Went for lunch on a Saturday, and only booked a half hour before as a result of a recommendation from a friend. One of the best Thai restaurants I've had the pleasure of eating - I'd go again in a heartbeat!

the green thai curry was very good but the side order of broccoli with shitake mushroom was disappointing as the broccoli was overcooked and there were 3 mushrooms; £9.50 is a lot to pay for that quality and quantity.
