Two years ago, we visited the highest rated Thai restaurant in the city that long prided itself for “its authentically fresh ingredients” . Based in Fishponds, Everyday Thai was established in 2014 and has since maintained the #1 spot as South West’s best Thai restaurant on TripAdvisor.
Run by General Manager, Sami Velioglu, alongside his partner and co-owner Pickky, the eatery is known to serve Thai food using only organic produce. On TripAdvisor, Everyday Thai has a whopping total of 629 five-star traveller ratings, compared to 96 reviews that earned the restaurant four stars and less.
One regular customer and TripAdvisor user described Everyday Thai as “spectacular in every way”, as he detailed his experience devouring Thai cuisine with his wife. He wrote: “Last week my wife and I had the delectable pleasure of dining in the kitchen at the Everyday Thai, and I can tell you that although I've eaten at the Everyday Thai several times before, it just keeps getting better and better!

“This time we had my wife’s favourite menu (Gaeng Kiaw Gai) “Chicken Thai Green Curry” This deliciously fragrant Thai green curry really packs a flavour punch, yes seriously delicious.
“My wife and I, we both agreed that the meal we had was amazing as the best we've ever had for so long. Not only was the food amazing, the service was not just excellent, but charming, unpretentious, attentive and friendly.”
The user had additionally praised Everyday Thai manager and owner, Sami, for his customer service, while chef and owner Pickky was highly regarded for creating a ‘masterpiece’ of a meal.
Another user chimed in to similarly share their positive reviews of the restaurant for its reasonable prices and ‘swift but not so rushed service’. They wrote: “I had the sizzling prawn and black pepper bean sauce with jasmine rice and vegetable spring rolls.
“It was the most flavoursome, deep sweet sauce I’ve ever had. It was all fresh and delicious. The sweet chilli dip was so good. I was by myself but was made to feel welcome by all the staff.”
A third user simply stated that visiting Everyday Thai was such an ‘incredible experience’ that they were wooed into returning the following day. They wrote: “Sammy and his whole staff were absolutely top class.
"The service was outstanding and they were all very attentive! We enjoyed it so much we went back the second day!! It's not only the service that wowed us - the food was out of this world!”
With these rave reviews it seems likely the restaurant will continue to pique the interests of both fans and newcomers alike with its mouth watering selection of Thai servings and its much raved about customer service.
