    Great Thai food and the place reminded me of some of the restaurant I visited in Thailand, with its basic functional fixtures and decoration. The food was lovely and authentic with a menus that you should be able to find something that you like, including those who don't want to eat fish or meat. It was busy and the service was a little slow, but the staff were polite and friendly. If you are looking for good Thai food SoPa is worth a visit but I would recommend booking.

    Wow what a great place. Saw SoPa on tripadvisor and sounded so good we had to try it. Booked for 3 of us for Tuesday evening and so glad I did, the place was full. Everything was great, we will definitely be going back. We try to go to various restaurants in the Southend area at least once a week and we’re so pleased we went here for the first time but it will certainly not be the last. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

    Overall excellent. Food was delicious. Thought beer was dear, small bottles only, and £3.50 each. Very busy but was a Saturday. Staff worked hard but were still attentive. A bit noisy but as I said it was full. A very popular restaurant I would definitely go again

    Great service and the food was very good. We liked the curry noodles with stewed chicken weekly special. The papaya salad had a lot of HEAT even though we ordered mild. They politely explained that they use Thailand variety of the birds eye chilli which is very hot! The restaurant is nicely decorated with a clever corner stacked full of food stuff to buy. It got very noisy during the meal as more customers arrived so it would be good if they put in some soft furnishings.

    Delicious, healthy food that is outstandingly flavorful. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, just ask the mindful staff! The premises, especially when the restaurant is busy, tend to enhance noise - but if you don’t mind background noise, don’t miss out on that amazing restaurant!

    Lovely surprise, was expecting cafe type place, and not the busy hub bub and authenticity and style of lovely little gem of a Thai restaurant . Will most definitely be going again, also made some purchases from their market style shop, selling various Thai produce. Great place for informal meal.
