We fancied a little midweek treat and ordered two different noodle dishes from Blue Orchid. We absolutely adore Thai food so we were deeply disappointed by the food. Expecting the beautiful vibrant flavours of Thai dishes, we were just heartbroken getting the food that was completely blant and very far from Thai cuisine. It was a takeaway, so cannot say anything about ambience and service but I can see that other people also noted the complete lack of flavour and these reviews were not taken on board.

No one else dining meant the it ladies atmosphere. Food was OK but not the best I’ve tasted. Host was friendly.

Surprisingly good Thai food.
The restaurant is tucked in a hotel on Shakespeare road. I wasn’t a fan of the place itself, the decor makes the place a little dark and the ceiling needs some TLC. The food on the other hand is something you need to try. The flavours of the curries were spot on. The rice was delicious, the starters were tasty. Definitely coming back to try more things. So far, it has me impressed. If you are looking for a decent Thai, book yourself a table now, the prices are decent too!

Decided to give Blue Orchid a go upon fancying a Thai. This is an expensive takeout so it’s rather a rare occasion we go for this cuisine. Unfortunately we felt it wasn’t the best Thai restaurant compared to the couple we have gone to in Bedford in the past. I felt the red curry I ordered, was rather bland with no creamy taste nor spice to it. It definitely did not taste like an authentic Thai curry. I also felt the meat within the curry wasn’t of good quality, almost like ready meal chicken and hardly much of it to speak of. The vegetables were also extremely hard and inedible so altogether felt like a wasted takeaway for the evening.
On the positive side, we found the rice to be quite tasty. That was bursting with flavour! However, I believe the price we paid and what we received in return was not up to the standards we have come to expect with Bedford Thai restaurants.

The service of the waiters is fantastic, they were very attentive. The venue is very nice, modern and nicely decorated.
Unfortunately the food was not as I was expecting, in my opinion the pad Thai and red curry was not authentic Thai food and was bland.
The starter king prawn was very nice though.
All in all a nice venue and friendly staff, but for authentic thai food it is not the best.

Please Read all reviews – Very very bland tastes. Not what we were looking for at all. Service excellent but food just was not for me.
Attack mode eh? Great strategy.
Check yourself and maybe you’ll get some punters in. My reviews are fair and you clearly also cannot read as 90% are 4or 5 star.. you seem to attack any honest review – #The only other person# sat in said exactly the same detailed and honest appraisal of the experience to your poor waitress who did as much as she could for us.. its simple to me. Its not us who are destroying your business is it?

Ordered tom yum and red curry for take away, was lacking in authentic Thai flavour – asked for extra hot but was not hot at all. They don’t use bird’s eye chillies. It is more bland in comparison to other Thai places I’ve eaten at i.e. has less spices and flavour but for people who prefer milder food this might suit. Portion sizes were generous.

I have eaten at Thai restaurants all around the world and this is by far in the top 5. It is phenomenal. Incredibly tasty, great portion sizes and very well priced. The staff are incredibly pleasant and friendly.
If you want to go somewhere where you feel your business is valued and greatly appreciated – this is the place.
I’ve had take away here from the just eat app many times, although they do not deliver it is so worth collecting. After writing this review I have convinced myself to have it again for dinner tonight! A+++

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Incredible food and service. My Mum couldn’t handle the spice so they made her another less spicy meal for free! and it only took 5 minutes to come. And they even left her first meal there for me to eat.
