Halal Reviews for Busaba St. Christopher's Place

Been here quite a few times now and it’s one of those places I keep coming back to. The food is consistently good, especially the Pad Thai, which is always well balanced and not too greasy. The satay is tender and the mango sticky rice is a solid dessert choice. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, great for casual meals with friends. Service is usually quick even when it’s busy. It’s not over-the-top fancy, but very reliable, which is why I keep returning.

The décor is amazing—wood tones, warm lighting, and Thai aromatics make it so cozy that you instantly feel like you’ve been transported from London to Bangkok. The restaurant is spacious, with large tables for eight—perfect for sharing, or enjoying solo when it’s quiet. 💷 Weekday Express Lunch: £12 for a main, +£2 for a drink, +£3 for a starter. Hard to beat in central London! 🍴 Food highlights: • Pandan Chicken: tender, wrapped in pandan leaves, served with a sesame-flavored sauce. • Chargrilled Sirloin Steak: surprisingly good with Thai-style fried egg noodles. • Pandan Pancake: rich, fluffy, with banana, nuts, and ice cream—super satisfying. • Guava Collins: refreshing, not too sweet. A perfect spot for cozy vibes and tasty Thai food in the heart of London!

This restaurant was recommended by a lovely receptionist named Aya. She really loves Pad Thai, especially the one from this place, so I finally decided to give it a try. From a Thai taste perspective, I do think it tastes good, but it doesn’t really come across as an authentic Pad Thai. It feels more like a general Asian dish with some Pad Thai elements rather than a fully traditional one, if you know what I mean. I also felt like they added a bit too much MSG. That said, I totally get why it tastes this way, especially since the owner is actually from Hong Kong and not Thailand. Overall, I still enjoyed it :D

Feeling like back to Bangkok ! I really like this restaurant’s decoration ^^ I just finished shopping at Selfridge, and Busaba is literally just behind selfridge. I always order pai Thai in every Thai restaurant, but I still quite like Busaba’s pai Thai.The noodles are cooked just right — soft but not soggy. Every spoonful is bursting with authentic Thai flavor. They also offer fresh smoothies, I quite like Guava 😚 feel like I am super healthy.

Today is my sister’s birthday and we came to this restaurant. Sujal prepared lots of surprise for us including birthday cakes and a plate with ‘happy birthday’ word! I really appreciated with his kindness and love. All of us are soooooo moved!! We will definitively come here next time!!!
