Visited Racha while on a day trip to Thirsk..Enjoyed our food choices and the young server was super friendly.
Our first time eating here and oh boy we will be back. Delicious 😋. My hubby even ordered more ribs to take home lol. My photos don't do the food justice xxx
This is an exceptional Thai restaurant that happens to be in Thirsk. But we have to say, the quality of the food and the level of service is special. We found this restaurant last year, and when we came back to the UK this year we had to go back. We were not disappointed. The chefs care about what they are sending out, both for quality and presentation and everything tastes like it was prepared fresh. The Chu Chee Tiger Prawns were amazing. But then again, everything was delicious and expertly prepared/presented. The Paneng chicken was rich and flavourful and the Pad Med Ma Muang had just the right amount of heat and sweet! Megan our server provided the right amount of attention and care, covering all our needs. The service was fast and attentive and she really made us feel welcome. It's evident that the chefs, staff and owners care about what they serve and how they serve it, and the result is a great dining experience that can be found on a little side alley in Thirsk. If you are thinking about trying this place, we recommend you do. We have been back several times over several years and every time its been great.

Lovely independent Thai resturant. There was a large choice of Thai food options, the portion sizes were generous and all food was freshly made, tasty and piping hot. Would recommend if visiting Thirsk
1st visit to this little gem tucked in Bakers Alley. Covid guidelines all in place. Warm friendly welcome. Staff very pleasant and informative on menu. Food was delicious. Scallop starter was my favourite with the king prawns a close 2nd. The shin of beef in the massaan curry spread across the plate with a spoon it was that tender. Lovely coconut rice for a bit of sweetness. Dessert menu looked lovely but we were both stuffed so no room. Delightful evening and look forward to sampling more.
