Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Visited on Saturday with my husband and son . The food is absolutely amazing. If you want a relaxed evening ( ie not uptight about ultra quick service) with great vibes then come here . The Sea Bass on the specials menu the best I’ve...ever tasted. Next time we come up to visit our son we’ll be back !More

Promises more than it delivers, its not that much better than your local takeaway. The Pad Kraprao with the prawn option comes in at a hefty £14 add noodles & thats a £20 dish. Even with the 10% discount for collection its a lot for...an ordinary stir fry that lacks vibrancy. The sticky rice for £5 comes in a small polythene bag in essence half a portion. Not good enough.More

Came here as it was recommended, was a Saturday night but wasn't to busy. Seemed nice & relaxed. We ordered starters, mains & our waitress (a girl from new York, forgot her name) recommended a curry to us, she said it was her favourite, I...ordered it & it was lovely. The satay chicken starter was good also. The only let down was the dessert, I ordered a scoop of vanilla & a scoop of chocolate. The ice cream wasn't good at all, think it was the cheap stuff & had to send it back. Apart from the ice cream the food & service was great & will go back again.More

I really enjoyed going to Patoo Thai - the food was delicious and the servers were all very friendly. It was also very well priced! I would recommend going here for hearty Thai food.

2 stars is being generous as the whole experience from walking through the door to leaving was nothing short of poor. We visited on a Saturday night and while it was busy it was overly busy. We got seated and handed menus, then waited (the...waitresses spend a lot of time looking busy) for our drinks order to be taken. We then had to ask to order food which the young girl who spent most of the time behind bar on her phone came over and took, 2 main dishes and 2 sides, she got half the order wrong, I asked for the battered sea bass fillets and coconut rice, what I was brought was a seafood stir fry and some noodles, I was then assured as my wife started eating that mine was on its way and it did turn up pretty quickly. The problem then was the taste, my sea bass tasted a bit funny and even though it stated you got fillets you actually got 3 cut up pieces of maybe 1 and a bit fillet. The batter was next, you could taste it was cooked in dirty oil, honestly the whole thing made me feel sick (coconut rice was nice). We then asked for the bill which was brought pretty quickly but then the waiting started and after 10mins with no drinks or anything left on the table we eventually got up and asked to pay. We will not be returning and would recommend others don’t too, this used to be a great Thai restaurant, now it’s utter rubbishMore

We returned home to Sheffield from the East Coast to take part in the 10K race, and having eaten at Pattoo Thai many years ago, we thought we'd return and enjoy a celebration meal as our memories of the restaurant were of a buzzing atmoshpere...and excellent food and service. Firstly, we were met at the door by a very dour gentleman who pointed at the 'cash only' notice but didn't say a deal more. As we had enough cash with us, this wasn't a particular issue but given that the restaurant was also completely empty, we should have just turned around and walked away at that point. Our mistake!!! I'd like to say at this point that the actual food was nice and we didn't have any issues with that. However..... We ordered a set meal for 2, the price of which £23.50 each. When the starters were brought to our table they were 'plonked' down in front of us by the young server. There was no explanation of what was what, no 'enjoy your meal' or 'is there anything else I can get you?' (basic server manners). When the main course arrived there were 3 of the smallest portions of food I have ever seen plus 2 solid lumps of rice. We honestly thought that the price we were paying, we would be taking food home with us but we were still hungry when we'd finished and neither of us are big eaters at the best of the times. Throughout the meal, the 'main man' kept coming to our table and wiping around us as we were eating which was very uncomfortable. All the time we were there, the young server was standing by the bar with her arms folded looking very bored apart from the one time she saw some of her friends outside and ran outside to hug them and have a laugh with them on the pavement. The bill when it came was just short of £90- for 2 of us!! When we politely offered feedback at the cost, the proprieter boredly told us it because of the drinks we had had (a bottle of white wine and a vodka and coke). We asked him if he thought this may be the reason the restaurant was empty but he just wasn't interested. The young girl who was serving even said 'they're all the same, I know what you mean'!! All the time we were trying to talk to him, he didn't look at us and was just jotting numbers down on a notepad. I said to him that he wasn't even listening and he became quite aggressive and said 'yes I am'. At this point we left the restaurant. We will NEVER be back. Not sure if he was the owner but if he was I'm sorry, he doesn't deserve the business. Such a shame.More

No cash machine working… for the last 6 weeks? Suggests a problem I fear. Used to be so good and tonight was way off. To be fair starters and main were very nice but desert poor…. The service… woeful ! Might be new staff but...goodness me put some effort in. Such a shame as we used to love this place but I’m afraid we won’t be back.More

We love Thai food and miss our annual long holidays in Thailand. We decide to try this restaurant but sadly will not be returning. Firstly when we arrived there was a notice saying "Only Cash" so we had to find a cash dispenser because during...COVID who pays with cash? Not a good start. When we got back we were seated in one half of the restaurant where there was no other guests eating. This never changed, when other people arrived they were seated at the other side of the restaurant. Why? We had booked ahead so that could not have been the reason. The atmosphere in our half of the restaurant was sadly lacking and spoilt the evening meal for us. We asked for Chang beer but got Singha even though Chang appeared on our bill! Warm plates were put in front of us but by the time the food arrived they were cold so we put them to the side and asked for warm ones. We had only ordered food with the "chilli" hot symbol and did tell the man taking the order that we like it spicy but one dish was so none descript without any spice or indeed flavour. Very disappointing evening. We will not be returning. We do have a favourite Thai restaurant very close to Patoo where were go every week and the atmosphere and the very friendly staff make our evening wonderful. The food there is also excellent. Wanted to try something different but not again.More

Tasted very authentic. Service not unfriendly, better...described as functional, efficient, but absolutely fine. Prices quite reasonable. Will definitely go again.More

We got a takeaway in the run up to Christmas. Was really impressed with the food. Tried green papaya salad for the first time- the prawns added were enormous. The quality of the food generally was excellent. Would definitely recommend this place.

Not a bring your own wine place. But in my opinion, thai food goes down much better wit a bottle of Tiger beer.
