About this restaurant

Busaba Eathai Covent Garden offers an intimate dining experience thanks to its cosy yet deceiving size, allowing one to escape the continuous excitement of London’s historic Covent Garden marketplace. A discrete mezzanine area overlooks the main dining room, which is also available to reserve for group bookings and semi private dining.

Please note that depending on available space, you may be seated at a communal table.

I recently ate here and enjoyed the food. I like Thai food, and this restaurant didn't disappoint. The vegetables were fresh. I had a very tasty cod dish and coconut rice. It seemed chaotically busy, but the waiting staff were attentive. I will eat here again.

The food is excellent - great choice and delicious. We were a little disappointed there was no dessert on the menu - but we enjoyed some ice cream at the theatre instead. Throughout our meal we felt well looked after. The service was consistently great with staff being attentive and polite. We had a pre-theatre meal so it was very quite when we arrived but became busier throughout our meal - the atmosphere was very chilled and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Busaba ! Great restaurant.

The food was poor, like it had been made in a production line without real care or attention. The tables are communal, so everyone is packed in tightly and its very noisy. You can't blank out the conversations around you, nor can hear the people you are trying to talk with. The only redeeming feature was the service which was personable, attentive and extremely efficient.

I go to busaba all the time but on this occasion the food was cold which clearly indicated it was re heated given the fact that it wasn't busy at all....very disappointed this time!

Food was mediocre at best and service was poor and inattentive - only 1 server for 5 tables on a Saturday night. Server was also very patronising in terms of guests tolerance to spice and ended up putting us off certain dishes plus all food arrived at once including starters. No way worth the money.

The food is always fantastic here, the only thing I would say is that, given there were 4 of us, they could have seated us so that there were two people on either side of a corner of the square table rather than 3 and 1. We ended up having to raise our voices to be heard by one another. We understand and accept the communal seating concept, but it could be thought through a little better than it is.
