About Patara

One of a family of worldwide restaurants, London’s Patara restaurant brings sophisticated Thai dining to Soho’s Greek Street. Tastefully decorated with plenty of atmosphere thanks to subdued lighting, huge pots of orchids, flickering candles, silk-covered banquettes and Thai figurines inlaid with glass mosaic tiles, it’s ideal for a romantic dinner for two. The Patara kitchen is ambitious, producing excellent creations of classic Thai cuisine like tom yum goong soup; beef with green curry and;, of course, pad Thai noodles. The service is renowned for its excellence and the wine list begins at a reasonably-priced level. Someone in the kitchen has an eye for beauty, too, because at Patara restaurant each dish is exquisitely arranged to delight your eye as well as your palate. Patara Thai restaurant is a haven from Soho’s scruffiness; a glamorous, romantic, authentic, professional spot for an excellent dining experience.

Signature dish

Slow-braised beef in an aromatic cocont reduction with fresh lime, lemon grass and chilli.

Ate in Patara on a Friday evening with three girlfriends. We were seated downstairs which at first was rathering annoying because we were the only ones down there (no atmosphere!) however within ten minutes the restaurant seemed to fill up out of nowhere and there was a good buzz. Overall the food was enjoyable, well priced and service was attentive without being overbearing.
