Had a superb meal at TY-8. The menu is "Eat as much as you like" for a very reasonable set price. The menu is very varied so there is plenty to chose from. We chose a selection of around six starters and they were stunning as were the duck in pancakes and the main courses. This was the best Chinese food we have had for a very long time. The staff are friendly and cannot do enough to enhance the dining experience. The restaurant was full so there was a great buzz to the atmosphere. Thank you TY-8 we had a smashing evening. We will be back very soon.

Note: Cash only. No alcohol (can bring your own) ATM on the main road 10m away so not big deal. Food was ok. Prawns in pastry were quite poor. Like frozen ones you can get in from Tesco..but Satay Chicken was delicious. We had beef stir fry and lamb curry. Curry was with mango and too sweet but overall it was a nice change. Service was great. Smiles all over, attentive. Looks like a small family run business.

Specialist Thai and Sushi Cuisine from a recognised Thai and Sushi specialist of Thai descent. There is nothing Thai that cannot be created for eating, from Noodle to Fish.

If you know you are going try to book in advance as it is always popular and seen people turned away.Friendly service.Will do best to accommodate.The food is delicious, cooked with flavour and always to perfection, ie: the Tamarind duck. You can alter the heat of your dish but if you like it really hot then hot is not hot and you need to express that to the waitress. Other wise great meal you wonât leave disappointed.

Incredibly rude manager: arrived to an empty restaurant (bar two tables) and requested a table for two. Obnoxious and abrasive manager offered us a table with chairs not facing one another. When we asked politely if we could move the chairs he declined and was equally rude when we asked if we could sit at a table for four, claiming that he had people coming (7:30 on a Monday night, town is deserted). Never have I encountered such rude service; he then told us he had no table to offer us! Promptly left. Take your business elsewhere! 0 stars.

The Margate restaurant is nestled in the heart of the quirky old town surrounded by cafes, retro antique shops. Its a stones throw from the world famous Turner Art Gallery.

We came here for an early dinner and found the place humming with happy diners. Really enjoyed my chicken biryani - both the taste and the presentation. The man in charge of front of house managed that rare act of being professional but also witty, which made for a fun customer experience. Would highly recommend.Thank you for your review, we hope to see you again soon

Flavours has one drawback - itâs setting. It sits in a rather unimpressive row of shops about a mile out of town on the road to Canterbury. The restaurant itself, largely unchanged since Kumar moved in, is a little disappointingly dowdy - like so many âIndianâ establishments. But the FOOD is outstanding! Tasty, subtly flavoured, beautifully presented. Over the last two years I have eaten every single item on the menu and have always been delighted. Furthermore, the service is impeccable.Would Flavours benefit from being resited in Margateâs Old Town, or would Margateâs new-found popularity benefit from spreading to the outlying areas? I donât know. But this restaurant should not be missed.

Family of four visited afternoon of 18 August, we had intended to eat at a seafood restaurant as by the sea but none offered alternatives and my youngest daughter does not like fish etc. We had walked all the eateries and were ready to give up, looked at the menu on the side of the âwig & penâ, stepped inside with three TVâs showing sports and wondered if we had made a mistake, we were hungry, so went upstairs, where we we greeted by a very friendly lady.It was also a bit of a gamble as our teenage daughters had not previously experienced Thai, although Indian and Chinese plenty of times, they were willing to give it a chance.What a hidden gem, we chose some mixed starters, then were assisted with choosing mains, all the food was cooked beautifully, with wonderful flavours youâd expect, we loved it, would definitely go back. All of us thought the curries, noodles and rice, along with duck pancake rolls were gorgeous, so tasty. Total bill £101, including starters, four mains, four sides, two glasses of wine, two beers, along with soft drinks.

Visited on a Thursday night in a group of 6 the restaurant was full and with just one chef the service slow. The room is a bit small and dated however the food was excellent and more than made up for any shortfalls in other areas. Loved that it was a byob which saved a fortune- glasses provided and a shop opposite if you do not bring enough with you A great place to go for a relaxed meal with the best Thai food I have ever had .

Went to this beautiful restaurant 2/11/19, with, family for partners birthday celebration. Extremely impressed with the welcoming staff, the vibrant surroundings and lovely atmosphere. The food was superb and presentation great. The waiter was attentive, warm and friendly. He picked up on a birthday in our group, and without warning, the lights dimmed, music played, and my partner was presented with a beautiful slice of cake with candle. So thoughtful and completed a great night. Many thanks to you all. Will definatley be returning at earliest opportunity.
