Whats not to love. Thursday nights are locals and members nights - half priced food! And what delicious food it is. Definitely go for the Colonel's Fried Chicken. The Betel Leaf salad is also a must try - both the fish and the vegetarian ones are great. I prefer the veggie one as it is fresher.

Such a fantastic option for dinner on Thursdays. Local's night means 50% off food. The perfect service combined with a brilliant dinner DJ makes this one of my favourite things to do on Thursday evening.

Food was excellent, but some items from our order were missed. It was super busy on a Thursday night and felt the service could have been better. But great atmosphere and tasty food! It’s my third time here!

Had a permanent booking every Thursday since 2012....it’s brilliant, always good, always delicious. If you haven’t been then you’re missing out, try the fat duck noodles, lamb curry, the fried chicken, the lamb cigars just try everything.

Great food. Chinese broccoli with pork belly was really good, and so was the popcorn chicken. My partner had the satay burger with roti, and loved it also.

Good food. Good table service. The music and environment can get a little loud, but it’s okay. Just don’t expect a quiet dining experience. Bangkok bolognese is a must-try!

The food very disappointing. I've been to Colonel Tan's a few years ago and it was sensational. This time the meal was very bad. The service was really average as well. Don't know what happened to that place...

Love this place! We are regulars for Thursday locals nights. We love to take friends along too. Staff are usually great, we’ve had one disappointing experience but in about 20 visits that is not bad odds. Food is ALWAYS perfect.

Always a great time at this venue. The Thai food is incredible. We nearly get the 5 spice friedchicken every time we come here. The new snapper mains are also very delicious. I prefer the Freid Snapper with BokChoy and Tamarind sauce. Cannot wait for the next time!

Colonel Tan never disappoints. We love the spicy Asian flavours. Consistently delicious. Lots of stairs to this hidden culinary treat, but well worth the climb.

Great food and atmosphere! Staff were friendly and professionally but definitely understaffed. Had to wait to be seated and served and even get some water for the table! Might be a one off but despite that I’d definitely go back.

After seeing this restaurant being reviewed on TV, I was excited to give this place a try as I love Thai food. Overall, it was a bad experience. We found the location smelly, old and dirty especially walking up a long staircase to get to the restaurant. Once we got to the top, we waited awhile to be seated as there was no one to greet us. We also had to get the attention of the waitress to order our food once the menu was given and suggestions made. When the food arrived, we felt it lacked the authentic flavours of Thai food. The lighting could have been better, we couldn’t see what we were eating, too dark ! For me, to make matters worst my favourite cocktail was also pretty ordinary ! An expensive night for our experience.

Too noisy, the entrance has a million stairs to climb - not good if you’re heavily pregnant, the place is stuffy and filthy. Pretty much killer my appetite and we left.
