Rakhang - West Dorset

The service at this restaurant was wonderfully efficient and helpful. The food was also quite good, but I would recommend ordering from the a la carte menu instead of the set menus, as we found them to be too filling and the dishes too similar to each other. Nonetheless, everything was well cooked and delightfully presented. Overall, well worth a second visit.

To start, the restaurant's carpet could use a thorough cleaning – and that's just the start. The bathrooms were also in need of attention, as was the rest of the establishment. After dining there, we all felt unwell and found the food to be mediocre, with better options available at Waitrose. Unfortunately, we felt that the prices were too high for the quality of the experience. However, the man working at the front of the house was very pleasant.

My most recent visit to this restaurant was about a year ago. The portions were small back then, but are even smaller now! I was served what seemed like the tiniest Thai fishcakes ever, each about the size of a spoonful. The main course was tasty with good quality and flavor, but it was also a small portion. My wife, however, enjoyed her Pad Thai. We did notice an extra charge on our bill, but it was promptly removed when we brought it up. Overall, the food was good but the portions were too small for an adult man.

Visited while in the area. Didn’t book but were given a table even though most tables were reserved. We chose the set meal for two and were not disappointed. The starters were fantastic- chicken skewers, prawn toast, spring rolls and tempura prawns with different dipping sauces- followed by fried rice and a beef dish, a pork dish and a chicken green curry. All three were amazing so fresh tasty and full of flavour. To finish off we both chose ice cream. It was very busy there with the staff literally run off their feet but our food came out promptly and was piping hot. Would definitely recommend this little gem of a restaurant.

Amazing food! We came here for lunch after a day at Bridport market and it did not disappoint. We had the sweetcorn cakes (SO good light and crispy, not greasy, and the sauce was fab and the tom kha soup to start, which was also very tasty and just the right level of spice. Then we had the pad Thai (sweet, aromatic and packed with ingredients and the red curry which was again not too hot but a really nice spice level. Nothing was remotely greasy or oily and we were full but not feeling gross which is great after such a big meal and speaks to the quality of ingredients (loads of fresh vegetables in the curry! . Then we split the fried banana and this was a really good end to the meal. Service was great, it was very fast despite them being busy, and the lunch deal was great value. We will definitely come back.
