Set in a bright, glass-fronted building near the Quayside, it’s a popular choice for diners looking for both authentic flavors and a relaxed, upscale atmosphere.

Why Concert-goers love it

Located within easy walking distance of top concert halls and arenas, Mantra Thai is ideal for grabbing a bite before the show. Guests praise its efficient service, making it easy to enjoy a full meal without worrying about missing the opening act. The lively but not overwhelming ambiance means you can still chat with friends while soaking in the pre-show buzz. The menu’s variety and portion sizes also make it great for sharing and sampling.

The attentive staff and stylish interiors also score high marks, creating a dining experience that feels both special and relaxed. Many mention the speedy service and great value for the quality of food, making it a favorite for pre-event meals.

Areas for Improvement
