Relaxed atmosphere, attentive service and excellent cuisine (the satay was wonderful) made this well worth the visit. Patara is a gem tucked away off Regent's Street.

The food at Patara is always good and service is reliable as always. The restaurant gets a little warm in winter when the heater is on, but is overall a comfortable restaurant to dine in.

WE arrived earlier than our booked time, but they were pleased to welcome us. When booking I had requested a quiet table as I am deaf and also have hyperacusis. The maitre d' acknowledged my request and showed us through to a table which they had put in an alcove by the window away from the other tables. It was absolutely ideal. We had two gorgeous cocktails to start. I can thoroughly recommend the passion fruit caipirinha , which was just the right balance of sweet and sharp, with a good kick of chahaca to boot. My daughter enjoyed her lychee martini too. We opted for the set menu for two and were not disappointed. Highlights included the most succulent and flavourful chicken satay, and deliciously savoury prawn salad, and some very cute little flower shaped dumplings . And also mustn't forget to mention the fish cakes. All were served with accompanying dipping sauce, peanut sauce and a thai version of bbq/hoisin sauce. And that was just the starters. We had declined the soup, so went straight on to the main courses. The table was heaving with an array of dishes including a chicken and aubergine curry, the most delicately cooked sea bass in a light batter, stir fried vegetables with just the right amount of crunch, a slow cooked fragrant beef dish and sticky rice. We also ordered a Pad Thai as this is my daughter's favourite dish. We had way too much food, but it was so delicious we did our best to eat as much as we could. It would have been nice to have slightly longer between the mains and the dessert, but this didn't disappoint. The chocolate pudding turned out to be a fondant, absolutely oozing with delightful chocolate sauce, and accompanied with a tasty raspberry coulis and some vanilla ice-cream. So despite being full, I managed to find a space to fit it all in.

For us this is always a "must visit" when we're down from Edinburgh and this weekend was as good as ever. The scallops in lime and chilli starter were succulent Kings, the Tom yum with prawns excellent and I would recommend anyone try the stewed beef in coconut milk, not spicy just amazing. ......and a superb Chenin Blanc for £22, can't wait to return!

Food above average compared to most Thai chains in London, but also more expensive. Veggie side dishes cost what main veggie dishes cost elsewhere. However, I did enjoy the veggie dishes - with nice amounts of garlic and chilli.

Very nice atmosphere, service and food. Just not happy with the portion. We had business lunch which is a two course meal. Even after the main dish, we were still hungry. Restaurants are about good service, good food and eat enough to leave feeling happy. You don't know until you order how small the portions are.

Great food and service. True Thai experience in heart of London. Menu packed with delicious delights . Main dining room is a bit noisy, but manageable. Downstairs area great to escape to if upstairs noise prevents you that quiet space for business or private conversation.

I had high expectations and overall was disappointed with the food. The scallops in my starter were totally tasteless although the accompaniments to it were tasty and delicately prepared. My main course of duck curry had hints of fine cuisine but somehow disappointed. All portions were small especially the rice portions. The ambience was quite good. Overall it was not great value for money.

Wonderful ambience , good service & tasty food. Only thing I felt was portion size bit small as compare to price but excellent quality food. We had order for 2 portions of vegetarian spring rolls, chicken satey ,egg fried rice ( big portion) with chicken Thai curry & veg Noodles. Pricey but classy restaurant at quiet place. Would recommend to visit.

Just a not so good experience. There are only ~10 vegetarian and gluten free options and they are all average and overpriced. We felt really uncomfortable when we saw the menu and we did not have many options to choose from. We would have left but it was friday and nowhere else had probably a table.

Very attentive staff, from greeting at door to table. We had three different servers constantly around, drinks were quickly replenished. Food was excellent, well presented and tasted great! highly recommended. Only downside was a very loud group close to us, making it difficult to have a decent conversation.

Exceptional restaurant, in a quiet location just off Regent Street. Food is delicious & I can recommend the Banquet for sharing, which I have enjoyed several times. The staff are friendly & attentive. I would suggest pre booking for later evening to quarantee a table, as I have only been there early evening and It is very popular.
