   I’ve been coming here for near 40 years! The place recently celebrated their 46th birthday and suddenly made me feel old! An absolute institution. I was lucky to visit way back when it was just 1-2 small rooms and my parents treated to us to this incredible restaurant when we were younger and have continued to visit since! They had been coming since just after it opened and it was once fo the best Thai restaurants you could find! After years of uni and now living over seas it’s on the list every time I come home. Made even more special by some of the staff remembering me including the boss! A true sign of a spectacular restaurant where hospitality is at the heart of its success. Here is to another 40 years I hope!

   The food here is delicious, authentic and full of so many options. I’ve eaten here multiple times, and most recently as a group of 20. The food is consistently great quality, always served hot, the attention to detail and service quality is fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

   Superb Thai food, every bit as good as Thai Terrace. Equally on the pricey side, but worth it for the quality. Rumwong had space for our family of four at the last minute (where Thai Terrace couldn't), and the atmosphere was lively — five birthday celebrations while we were there on a Saturday night. But not disruptive in any way. Lots of couples there too. Thai Terrace has slightly more luxurious surroundings, but food-wise both are excellent. You can’t go wrong with either.

   Just amazing!! I came here tonight after a bad experience at a restaurant around the corner. I am a woman on my own and all the staff at Rumwong made me feel so welcome and comfortable. They were so polite and friendly. The restaurant was heaving but I got seated straight away and treated so nicely. This was my first meal alone in Guildford since my husband died nearly 8 months ago and I wish I had come straight here rather than the other restaurant. The food was amazing and atmosphere was nice. Do have the ice cream profiteroles for dessert! I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a great meal.

   I had a Prawn Pad Thai I think, which I always order at Thai restaurants so that I can compare them but for some reason I don’t have a photo. Their Pad Thai was good but it came premixed already. Sometimes restaurants still leave some mixing for the diner to do, which I like. But it tasted good so that’s what was important. I enjoyed the flower tea. I’m not sure if it was chrysanthemum tea but it was very nice. I can’t remember what everyone else ordered because this was a few weeks ago. I have had better textured fish cakes in the past at different places (in SE Asia) but these were ok. Not as spicy as I am used to but I guess these have been toned down for the British palate. Decor and ambiance is fantastic. I’m not surprised the place was packed at 5:30 pm.

   Absolutely the best, in my opinion, when it comes to Thai food in GU. Book in advance, always full. Nevertheless you never feel crowded. Food is top notch, atmosphere and service always on top. Enjoy every time, every minute.

   Most of the dishes we placed order met with high standards of Thai cuisine. Particularly impressed with the starters and salad. As for the mains, the fried noodle could be even better if it could be made a tad saltier and less sweet.

   Been here several times so I can honestly say Rumwong is one of the best restaurants in Guildford. Rumwong offers a wide variety of food which are freshly prepared Most of the food is reasonably priced except I think the small option of rice is fairly expensive …more than £3! Service is good. On the whole, it was a wonderful experience. Plenty of car parking nearby too and getting there is easy. A reservation in advance will be good especially for the weekend.

   One of the staff was being so rude that she nearly dropped the glasses on us and heavily placed the food on our table but left without saying sorry. Another staff was polite tho, explaining the menu.
