The staff were all very professional, helpful and friendly. At the same time it was not stuffy and didn't make you feel uneasy. We tried the sampler platter for appetizer which was delicious. It was a good array of the their wonderful cuisine. The fried appetizers were not greasy and cooked just right. Loved the chicken/nuts dumpling, very unique and full of flavor and spices. For entree we tried the Lamb curry, sea bass curry, meat curry and pad Thai. They were all a hit, but the sea bass was the winner as far as we were concerned. The sauce and flavor was the perfect combination. Since it was a birthday celebration, we had the molten chocolate cake and the mango cheesecake, an amazing experience trying both (served with vanilla ice cream). This is a great place for any celebration

    Superb Thai cuisine. I have eaten here on a number of…read moreoccasions now when in London and have found Patara to be amongst the best Thai restaurants I have ever dined at. In addition to the eclectic and very creative menu, the sheer delight, taste, and presentation of the wonderfully prepared food is an experience in itself. Without a doubt, this restaurant has great ambiance, fist class service and is amongst the best in Hampstead.

It's one of the few places in the area that isn't "carry out only" and the food is really fresh. I especially enjoyed the soups. We ordered Thom Kha Kai, and a glassy noodle soup, to start. Both soups were totally "mmmmm"-worthy. When my fiancee requested a beer,the snarky waiter directed him to the quickie mart next door. He was completely condescending about the whole thing when we asked "So, can we bring the beers in here?" His response "Why would i tell you about it if you couldn't?!" - I was starving and didn't want to risk having a bad food experience so I decided to pretend I was in an episode of Seinfeld and just ignore it. It was the right decision, because when our entrées arrived, they were quick, fresh, and delicious. I ordered the pad see ew, and my fiancée had the red curry. Both totally satisfying. I think I would order something else next time, but it was good. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone in the neighborhood, but don't make a special trip for it. It would be perfect for a casual dinner meet up with a few friends. And the idea of bringing your own bottle of wine, is actually quite a positive in my opinion.

    A little gem of a place. One that demonstrates the benefits of fresh herbs and straight off the wok…read morecooking. Meat was well cooked and vegetables retained their proper taste without being drowned out by their sauces. We went on a very quiet night so service was good. Wine was reasonably priced but not of the highest quality. To be honest you're there for the food. There aren't too many covers so it would probably be worth booking on a weekend. It's been a while so really glad to rediscover this place.

    Thai Villa is a lovely little local-type place. It appears to be family-run, and has all of the…read morethings you'd expect from a Thai restaurant like this. It's teeny tiny inside, and often busy, so if you're coming on a Friday or Saturday night, it's best to call ahead. The staff though are very nice and will do all they can to accommodate you. I've also found it's quite busy at Christmas with the local businesses having their Christmas 'do' here. I normally find myself there after work, having come out of the back entrance to Pinner Station. They open around 6ish - I have tried a few times at 615pm and found the door still locked, the workers clustered around a table eating their dinner (always a good sign!). I was let in with a smile and an apology and a frantic clearing of the table. I am a creature of habit, and we normally get a mixed starter to share - all very tasty, and I'm especially partial to the sweetcorn cake. Then I get a massaman or a penang curry, and my husband generally ends up getting whichever I don't get. And coconut rice, of course! All of that comes to around £20, which isn't too bad, especially considering there just aren't many choices for Thai in this area that I know of! If they delivered, they'd get the 5th star. And I'd be poorer.

The hostess scrutinized us one by one and said, I'm sorry, you can't dine here without a Thai. Pleased with my Red Curry w prawns. Creamy, not watery or oily. Huge Bauta size prawns with perfect texture. A good spice blend throughout. But, I didn't really like eggplant in the curry, it doesn't work. Don't typically see green beans in the curry, but it was fine. I hate having to pay extra for white rice, but it is what it is. The pad Thai was good, but feel they made a mistake by putting the chili on the side. I know its not supposed to be a spicy dish, but requested it a bit spicy and they just put spices on the side. The dish needs to cook with the chili to give it flavor. £15 minimum if you want to pay by card.

Much better than some well known Thai restaurants in central London. All good food served piping hot and sooo soo tasty!! I fancied Thai at short notice and was able to make a reservation at 8pm for 8.30pm with no problem. I recommend everything I had; starters- prawn and chicken toast, duck Spring rolls. Mains- green curry and the chefs recommended Goong Chu Chee (special deep fried river prawns top with Thai red curry sauce) with egg Fried rice. We ended up ordering another portion of egg fried rice. The mains portions are generous. We had a lot of green curry left and ended up drinking it with the soup spoon provided...Delicious!! The prawns were amazing in the red Thai curry.
