Blue Orchid

hi
went her for dinner last week. Thai people seem to run it. Very friendly. The food was very good and the price the same as most Chinese restaurants but I would just say that the staff here were friendlier and I would go back here again

Put quite simply this place looks great but as a restaurant it’s lacking an awful lot. I’m not one to moan but this place seriously disappointed me…
There are some restaurants out there that are better at being a takeaway than a restaurant. In all honesty, the food was good, but only if you thought of it as takeaway food. As restaurant food it really wasn’t worth the prices they were charging (You could easily spend € 20 per person just on a main course).
As for the menu, there were a number of duplicated entries. There were entries in the Chef’s special section that were almost the exact same as the regular menu, just € 4 — € 5 more expensive. This irked me to no end…
The staff all looked bored and depressed. I felt like I had arrived at a party where the booze had run out, the music had stopped playing and the only reason why everyone was there was that they hadn’t figured out a decent enough excuse to leave. This is not the atmosphere you want in a restaurant…
My final point to be made is about the music. I made a similar comment about JD’s Steakhouse. The music didn’t match the venue. You’re in a restaurant, not a pub… As such, the music should blend into the background and not be louder than your average conversation. Also, the latest pop songs should not be on your playlist unless they can easily blend into the background…
Anyway, this place isn’t the worst place I’ve been to by a long shot. I probably won’t be running back here any time soon.

Nice décor and lovely food
