Phansa is without a doubt the BEST takeaway in Downham Market! We've been working in the area and my partner and I get their food at every opportunity (seriously, 2-3 times a week!) I LOVE all their noodle dishes, and my partner's favourite is the Massaman curry. The food is always so fresh, with filling portions. Phansa is what I'm going to miss most when our work relocates us - thank you so much for keeping us so well-fed!!

I normally don’t normally leave reviews but in this case I have to. Myself and family come to Downham market every few months and this is my partners go to restaurant! It’s so authentic and delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming, wonderful and so friendly. We feel like family when we visit! The owners are the loveliest people and so welcoming. The two English girls, I believe are mother and daughter, are an asset to the restaurant. Super customer service skills, friendly and attentive! They go above a d beyond! 10/10

A soothing and calming atmosphere as you are greeted with most friendliest welcome. The food is extremely authentic, presented elegantly by the chef himself who looks after you as well as the waiters/waitresses. Their menu has a wide variety of amazing Thai dishes from starters to desserts portioned well. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant if you are a huge fan of South East Asian cuisine like I am and will be returning as many times as possible.

We visited Thai restaurant just before Christmas and i forgot to do a review we plan to go for another visit in the coming weeks. They have a great selection of starters for 2, Dim Sun, Thai fish cakes, deep fried squid and it was absolutely delicious. for our mains we had chicken phad Thai, beef panang curry, weeping tiger, steamed jasmine rice, jumbo prawns Tamarind, crispy belly pork and chefs special fried rice. the food has lots of flavours and the staff were friendly they made us wellcome. We will be visiting again soon.

We’ve just visited tonight and I had to share how wonderful the food was and how friendly and inviting the staff were.Being a frequent visitor of Thailand, I’ve eaten a lot of Thai and I have to say this is probably the best I’ve had in the UK. Everything tasted authentic, with loads of flavour which you only get with Thai food and all was well presented.The staff couldn’t have been more friendly, I speak only a little Thai, but it was enough for them to make my family and I more welcome.I highly recommend and I can’t wait to come back again.✨?? ขอบคุณ ✨

Ordered our takeaway to be delivered, which arrived on time, however did not meet our expectations, the crispy pork was nothing other than chewy meat? Spicy prawn crackers in edible, when called to complain was told this was due to time it took to deliver, delivery being £7, would expect the food to be of the same standard/quality as if was in the restaurant, if not have a separate takeaway menu, or just refuse to deliver if going to effect the quality

Wonderful personal place, the food was excellent, £7 starter £15 main plus £4 rice, very good quality, fresh and beautifully presented food and generous portions. Friendly, helpful staff. Enjoyed and would visit again.Vegetarian options: Vegetable and tofu option on most of the combinations. I had vegetarian gyoza to start. Not sure on vegan.Parking: We found two spots on the street outside, easy to park, but a quiet, mid-week evening.
Loved the staff, the food and the atmosphere. Our waiter and waitress were delightful and welcoming. The food, we went for the vegan options, were some of the best I have had; it was made with passion and served beautifully. I am really looking foward to returning. Thanks Phansa for a memorable evening.

The best Thai food I have had. I have found this restaurant when i have been working away and it has blown my mind. My second consecutive night eating here! I really cannot recommend this place enough.The staff just top off the experience. Kind, friendly and attentive..I will come back next week when I am back. I will really struggle to find somewhere in Derby/Nottingham to match the quality!

Visited this evening and had a fabulous meal, mixed starters and crispy aromatic duck for starters then each of us had a different dish. All were wonderful, really tasty and very enjoyable. Service was amazing and the restaurant itself is very comfortable and exceptionally clean. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and will certainly visit again next time we are in the area.
