· Lisson Grove
Cozy Thai near Regent's Park delivering reliable classics, friendly service, and good value lunch sets, with occasional service hiccups and sweetness-leaning flavors.
The verdict
Mortar and Pestle delivers reliable neighborhood Thai dining with strong food quality in curries, fried rice, and noodles, supported by friendly, attentive service on most visits. Occasional consistency dips—tough duck, bland pad thai—and rushed service during peak hours prevent a higher grade, though the excellent value and convenient location near Regent's Park make it competitive with respected local favorites.
One caveat: Rushed turnover and early bill presentation reported during busy periods
