Incredible as always! Never fails to impress us. Tried the salt and pepper squid for the first time and highly recommend - speechless! The squid melted like butter in your mouth great value for money based on the quality and quantity of food. Also excellent wine, highly recommend the Monsoon Valley from Thailand. Enjoy :)

Giggling Squid Review Giggling Squid offers a mixed Thai dining experience. The staff and service are amazing, friendly, attentive, and efficient, making us feel welcome. The atmosphere is lively and good, perfect for a casual night out. However, the food was disappointing, lacking the bold flavours expected from Thai cuisine. Some dishes were inconsistent and underwhelming. Overall, 3 stars for great service and vibe.

Try to book table for my partner because of his birthday dinner but all tables booked. Don’t like to disappoint him so call to customer service for help and you know what they tried to arrange a table for us in short time window. OMG they saved mu as life. We always love Giggling Squad and always try their food wherever we are. Best service, great and delicious food. Atmosphere always on top and perfect location as well. Highly recommend and really appreciate for helping me out.
