📍 1. Som Saa

The first Thai restaurant we recommend is this one because, besides serving authentic Thai food, their signature dish is whole fried sea bass with crispy skin and juicy flesh 🎣, served with Isan herbs and roasted rice powder. If you're missing Thai curries, they also have a wide variety of curry dishes to choose from 🍲.

For students who like spicy and flavorful Southern Thai food, we recommend this place. Their Southern Thai dishes in London are all excellent and full of flavor 🌶️, and the staff provides outstanding service.

If you want to eat good Thai food at a reasonable price in a cozy, small restaurant, this is the place. The menu here is like a good restaurant in Bangkok. Whatever you're craving, they have it on the menu 🍜, such as appetizers, soups and curries, Isan food, noodles, and even seafood. It's a complete and satisfying meal that's also easy on your wallet 😋.

📍 4. Farang London

A restaurant that's delicious and also pet-friendly is this one. Their signature dish is fried sea bass topped with a sour coconut curry that complements each other perfectly 🎣🥥. If you're craving spicy and sour papaya salad, they also serve it 🌶️. The restaurant has also received a Michelin award, making it a must-try.
