Lan Naa Thai in Epping Forest

We were welcomed nicely and food came quickly, but the fried veg (Thai tempura) came and it looked incredibly oily - possibly fried too cold, which absorbs lots of oil. Since it Was so unappealing I asked the waiter for a Tom yum soup instead, and she kindly swapped without having to pay for the tempura. The other dishes were tasty but not mind blowing - as usual pad Thai was just Far too sweet, although the flavour and texture was enjoyable. Nice enough, but a bit mixed for me.

Little gem on Epping High Street. Stopped for dinner on the way home from a rare trip into the office. Had one of the set menus for two and really enjoyed everything. Great service and pleasant atmosphere.😊

As someone who has never liked Thai food, this place is incredible! Opened my eyes to a whole new cuisine, thank you!

Really nice. Good choice for veggies. We ate really well. Shame there was no pudding. A bit of coconut ice cream would have gone down well. Excellent service though.

New menu is a little different but food is still very good

Yum! We are vegan and there are options for us! We usually have the red Thai curry and spring rolls. We have eaten in and got takeaway many times.

I've never actually eaten in there, but whenever I've had a food delivery it's always been fresh and tasted beautiful

Previously reviewed this as 4 stars but after most recent visit trying to decide on a 3 or 2 start rating for this visit.We have eaten here a number of times over the years but this is the first time since going into first lockdown and the first time we have ordered meat dishes.The restaurant was clean and felt peaceful although we were one of two couples and eventually the only one from about 20h30. Our waitress was very friendly.Ordered the chicken satay which was sent back as the chicken was very over cooked... literally like shoe leather.We then ordered the Pad Thai and Pad Khee Mol, both with beef. Initial impression was very positive as you can see in the photos as the dishes were colourful and well presented.The noodles and vegetables were both cooked perfectly and were very tasty. However, the beef was also very overcooked and very tough...it was basically just grey leather once you were able to cut it open.In summary, this is the first bad meal we have had here and the common denominator was the meat (chicken and beef). My wife and I both had the feeling that the meats were precooked and then microwaved to death for a second time. This is of course unsubstantiated (the microwaving part not the cooked to a second death part!).When we go back, we will stick to the vegetable options as those have always been very good.The portions were a good size so, if the entire dish is edible, would offer reasonable VFM.We decided not to stay for dessert and the chicken satay was taken off the bill. Our dog ate the beef when we got home.

Amazing food each time, decent portions, prompt delivery, really authentic. We've been impressed every time, friendly service too. Food wasn't around long enough to get a picture!

The food is great, service always very kind, and the prices are good too what more do you want
