Friendly and helpful staff. Great atmosphere.Our starters outshined our mains but that being said the mains were delicious (albeit slightly expensive for what we got)

There is no dissatisfaction here. Yindees is a special place, perfectly located to enhance your experience. The food is gastronomical and the staff are superb at offering the best recommendations if you happen to be indecisive. Deservedly a 5 star experience.

The pork curry was very tasty, the portion was generous with the rice. The food came amazingly quickly. The waiter was friendly and had a great sense of humour, even though he was run off his feet serving multiple rooms on a Friday night. We were in a quieter room at the end on the right which lacked the same buzzing atmosphere that there was on the left. Altogether a positive experience.

Very nice evening. Standards and ingredients of food not the same as a few years ago. Variety of traditional ingredients have changed to cheaper versions which, if you never visited Thailand before, you will not miss as the food is really flavourful, but it is missed. Wished for the roasted duck, but only curries with defrosted steamed duck was available. Would I return? Not easily as there are other similar brands out there, with same offerings. Price related it is still great value for money with great waiter service. That I cannot fault at all.

Loved the atmosphere and food! We ordered stir fry and a noodle dish, and both were completely unique and equally delicious! Sitting on the floor was a blast, despite my lack of flexibility. Great experience.

My favorite Thai place in Cape Town! Best food and always friendly! Love to spend the evening at this restaurant :-)

Ordered a delivery and was so disappointed by the food, considering the great reviews online. I had undercooked butternut in my green Thai curry, the soup was all coconut milk and nothing else and the chicken dish average. Not sure if this place should consider themselves traditional by placing butternut in a Thai green curry. I have never had a Thai dish with butternut in it.Overall: Food lacked flavour and was extremely pricey as we had to order rice separately. Would not recommend or order again.

A quaint little place in Gardens. Positives: Great ambiance. Floor and table seating available. Friendly and accommodating staff. The food is great and the portions are substantial. Negatives: Overall bit pricey for drinks as well as food. You have to order main and accompaniment separately. Restrooms need to be serviced more frequently. Floor seating can become uncomfortable after a while. The wait is very long. You kinda just have to relax, have your third drink and go with the flow. Its Cape Town after all.

Best authentic Thai curry in the cbd. Great food and friendly fantastic service.

A quaint but traditional Thai restaurant that serves delicious meals.The atmosphere is great for family.

Lil bit on upper price levels but that is justified by the high quality of the Food.Several floors, one is close to the road and you can eat whilst sitting on pillows on the floor.Recommended!

Awesome food, friendly service from the get go, they halal friendly they get the meat from condor meat, they sell alcohol on premises so they cannot have a halal certificate, there is seating on the floor you must take off your shoes and non floor seating, they serve virgin cocktails as well, limited parking

Great food and setting. Staff needs to be a bit more courteous.

Food was good but not seasoned well. After adding fish sauce, chillies and dash of soy, the flavors improved and we enjoyed the food. I was disappointed with the chef, who approached us and asked us how we wanted the heat to be. We requested hot and she said she will add extra chilli when she prepares the meals. Sadly, that didn’t happen, but overall the service was good and they adhered to the Covid protocols.

Always good. On my return-to list

Cosy, comfortable, great food and good service.

Thank you Run. Best Thai food in ZA.

One of my favourite Thai restaurants in Cape Town. Its vegan and vegetarian friendly. Many options for you to choose from. Great service and cool atmosphere. You can choose to sit down on comfy cushions at a low set table or normal western chairs and tables.

Lousy service, lousy food.Ample excuses as to why an empty restaurant takes 1,5 hours to produce a starter SOUP and a stir fry main....Good luck with the revamped menu, choices are limited and dont even think of going here if you want a salad or something fresh we dont do that

Love it, food was fresh service was good really nice atmosphere just a bit pricey

Delicious Phad Krah Pow Ped. Thai style made special for me...Ask for original Thai and they will make it.

This place is one of the best and most authentic Thai restaurants in Cape Town. Their food is amazing and the taste sensation that you expect from thai will keep me coming back to Yindees.Their steamed lime fish is currently not on their shortened lock down menu but try it when they fully operational again, but an amazing compromise was their new rolled pork. Yum

I loved the style and furnishes of the interior, we really felt like somewhere in Asia. The food was very nice, we ordered a lot of fried meals, you cannot go wrong with deep fried, but the curry with rice was also good.

Best Thia restaurant in Cape Town! I go atleast thrice a year!

Best spring rolls and dim sums ever. Oooh and the Mai Tai is just so refreshing... Staff are so friendly.. I feel like hugging them when I leave. Love it... Love it... Love it.

Apparently one of thee best places for authentic Thai food. Friendly and efficient staff made for a pleasant dining experience.

One of the best restaurants Ive visited. No. 37 - the chili stir fry - is phenomenal! Being able to enjoy a delicious meal atop a set of cushions really is the cherry on top of an amazing culinary experience.

Calming environment, you can sit on pillow on the ground. Had exelent service and food is delicious!

Yellow curry with coconut rice! Yum bum

ALWAYS LOVED IT, STILL LOVING IT!!!

Cold food + warm drinks .. chef uses too much butter, basically sub par .. not good enough for that price

Fantastic meal. Food flowing, all tasty and authenticAmbiance is still there despite reduced capacity.Thanks Run and team

Love Yindees. Consistently good food. Good service. Lovely atmosphere.

The atmosphere, the staff and the food was absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend Yindees.

But you have to spend quite longer to eat

Not Halaal.This place was weird.My brother booked a table because he was told it was halaal. When we arrived at the place the menu had pork on it. I was horrified. I just wanted to leave. However we asked the waiter if they were halaal. He said they were halaal and I honestly burst out laughing.Despite me having a comical experience the place seemed kinda nice for all my harami people out there.

Solidly, the best Thai food in Cape Town.Its almost as if Im back in Thailand.

Great times. Cushions on the floor next to a big glass front next to the road made for an exotic experience.

Flavourful fresh tasty curry. One of my favorite restaurants. Never disappoints.

Tasty food, a bit on the spicy side. Friendly service. However, what struck me as odd was the terrible condition of the wait staffs uniform and shoes. Despite the high prices charged for the food and the upmarket ambiance, our waiters shirt and shoes had holes in it. I hope the management pays them a good living wage outside of tips.

For us it is the best THAI food in and around Cape Town! Loving it so much!! And any of our special dietary requests are always considered ;-)Thank you so much!!

This is always a top favorite with me. Never fails to disappoint on the food and service front. Rita and Maurice are especially helpful and efficient.I’ve noted on some of the other reviews comments on the uniforms. I completely agree. The restaurant should fit the bill for new threads for the staff. And a lick of paint wouldn’t go amiss ether!It’s a great place, don’t no business should count on its success without keeping improving. Hence the 4 stars.

Fantastic cuisine. Highly recomendedImpeccable service

Nothing special. Cocktails were good, and service was good, but chicken satay was cold and had to be sent back. Came back having been microwaved. Curry was tasty though!

Outstanding service. Fabulous food. Highly recommended.

Service 5 ☆ Ambiance5☆. Main 5☆. Desert 5☆ Starter 0☆ Chicken Satay tasted off. Maybe it just wasnt my day?

Absolutely superb,for true authentic Thai food this is the place to be.

Friendly service, good food, nice atmosphere.We had a great evening.[Reusable chop sticks would be cool]Happy to return!

A good Asian cuisine experience

Very nice restaurant!! Delicious food & cocktail, nice & smiling staff. To eat on the cushions with the special atmosphere of the room was nice also. Thank you!

Excellent and friendly service. The vibe is cozy and feels like home. We sat in the area with chairs and talks ceilings and a fireplace. The food was authentic and serving sizes are large.

Great service and spectacular food. Really enjoyed their peanut curry, so well made. Good location if youre a group of friends looking for exceptional Thai food or a local spot to entertain your parents. Quite busy when I was there but didnt wait long for the food at all. The hostess was nice and checked in on us and informed us of off menu desserts. Would definitely go back, a little on the pricey side, but then again, good Thai food isnt cheap :p

I had their Panang curry and it was fantastic. The flavors were very authentic and it was rich and creamy. Will definitely go there often. Prices are reasonable for the quality and authenticity and the owner and waiter who served me were extremely friendly and welcoming. Loved it !

Amazing delicious Thai. Authentic. Great service. Portions for price in some instances are quite pricey. Ask waitress for best recommendations and options

Please first ask what they have. No beer. No pork. Pathetic.Food is OK.

Nice food and staff but too pricey and not as tasty as the food in Thailand, which is about 4-6 times cheaper too. Hard to beat the motherland but eish, what can we do...

I recently shared a birthday experience with my family including two young children,at Yindees.The food was excellent, the service was great and we were given a private room in which to celebrate.We all agreed... We highly recommend this restaurant.

Amazing, Definitely will be back!

This is a great place to have a group event! The food, although pricey, is worth it and is delicious! Sitting in the cushioned area is a lot of fun and definitely an unusual experience. It is fun to be sitting with your shoes off on a cushion on the ground while looking out of the big window into the busy Kloof Street.The waiters and waitresses are extremely professional and very helpful as well as friendly.Great if you like hot and spicy foods!

Absolutely authentic.Lived in Thailand for a long time. And this was by far as close as it can get to the streets of Bangkok.The service was super fast and very friendly. We definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants the real deal!

Good food. Friendly staff

Tasty food and nice ambience sitting in the cushioned area - be prepared to take your shoes off and sit on the floor! Though tables are available if you dont fancy it. The service was a little too relaxed so dont go if youre in a hurry.

Excellent food, however very overpriced, be prepared to pay an extra R33 for rice/noodles to go with your dish.

Authentic Thai food cooked to perfection.

Really good authentic Thai food, great venue and good service. Highly recommended.

Useless. 2 hours to wait for food?

I absolutely adored my pad Thai but service was terrible :(

Best Tom yum soup yet. But drinks took way to long to be delivered and the Long Island Tea tasted very diluted (read: non-alcoholic!). Food also takes a while to be served so please order early and expect some waiting time.Corn fritters and satay combo were alright. Staff were very friendly

Food quality and taste was superb. The owner is also the Head chef. Rest rooms not serviced properly. Thai ambience present.

Authentic, fresh Asian/Malaysian cuisine. This is more than a local restaurant, its a Kloof Street institution. 🙂

Love it

Friendly staff that greets with a warm welcome. You can either choose to sit on the floor on a comfy little pillow or at a table with a chair. Great food and even better service!

Amazing food and a cozy atmosphere. Definitely a must try kind of place.

Authentic Thai experience. I love the egg fried rice. The food is too hot for my palette, but go there to open your sinuses 😄

Excellent food and wonderful service. Great experience sitting on cushions while eating.

One of the best Asian places in Cape Town. They have low sitting so recommended only when you can sit on floor. Food is amazing

Delicious Thai food and friendly service. Will definitely go back!

Actually I like to add a 6th star. This is real Thai cuisine. Serving the true Asian flauvors since 1993. A must if you like the spicy side of life

Hadnt been to Yindees in years, was really impressed at how delicious and authentic the food was and for a change in Cape Town the service was good. Definitely going back soon!

Amazing atmosphere and food. We especially enjoyed sitting at the Thai lounge, small table and cushioned floor seating. Authentic Thai experience

This restaurant deserves some serious recognition! Everything we had was yummy and cooked really nice. We loved the ambience in the coushions section and enjoyed a good service. I’m looking forward to my next visit!

Simply delicious!

As always great food and super nice Service

AVERAGE. The service was really friendly. Some of the food was good. But the Wild Duck was soooooo dry we could not eat it : ( With so many amazing restaurants in CT, this one can be missed

Very good Thai Food at reasonable prices (read: the prices are slightly higher as this area is a high price area). The one time I visited, the atmosphere was great, few patrons, calm and quiet atmosphere so we could properly enjoy our meal. Great ambience and decor.

Food is pretty good but the service was awful, waiter was polite and seemed lovely, everything just took forever

So disappointed in the services we received last night at Yindees... Usually a solid favourite. We waited an hour for our starters to arrive! Other customers who came in after us were eating long before we were even told that our food would be out soon. We waited another 20 minutes before my husband got up to ask what was happening. If the kitchen was very busy it would have been nice to know that we would have to wait so long.

Waited ages for our food and alcohol way overpriced

Always a favourite! Great food and very reasonably priced.

The service was very nice and the food absolutely delicious!

I actually enjoyed sitting on the floor, i guess these days we are not really used to sitting on the floor as much - I havent really since varsity.Dont underestimate this experience, I highly recommend.The food was good. I think I singha beer here, I could be wrong

Great service. Really good food. Decent portions. Many vegan-friendly options. Ill be back for sure.

Stay far away!!! Ordered food with them for delivery and an hour and a half later still no delivery. Phoned the restaurant and whoever answered the phone was beyond useless and did absolutely nothing about the complaint! First and last time we will be ordering from here

Great food, great setting. The basis for great company. Kop khun kap

One of my new favourite restaurants in Cape Town. The atmosphere was traditional and cosy, and the food was delicious! They offer traditional seating on the floor, as well as a normal dining section. The staff are friendly and are very helpful in explaining the menu.

Lovely place with nice staff. They accommodate my gluten free and vegan diet. Thank you

Best Phad Thai that Ive tasted in a long time

Very nice and authentic Thai restaurant. There is even a part in the restaurant where you can sit in the floor.The Phad Thai tastes exactly like on the Street Food markets in Thailand.

Such wonderful service, I will most definitely come back

Great food and lovely staff, very cozy place. I will be back!
