Hilltribe - Richmond Upon Thames

I ordered the coconut milk soup and a satay dish. What was supposed to be a simple basic lunch turned out to be the highlight of my day. The soup was loaded with chicken, lime leaves, chili, galangal root… it was just delicious and I savored the flavours. The satay was perfect and I ate all the leftover sauce with the rice. I plan to return tonight with my family. Honestly the best Thai food I’ve experienced outside of Thailand, and easily my favorite find in Richmond.

I love this restaurant. Amazing authentic Thai food, lovely people and always busy with a great atmosphere. Often see Thai customers in the restaurant. Menu is wide ranging with fabulous seafood, soft shell crab and morning glory. I’ve taken many friends there who have become regulars.

Amazing. We had the 3 course and it was delightful. The staff were excellent and it’s even nicer knowing it’s a family run business. Highly recommended

We came back late from the city and were looking for somewhere to stop on the way back to the hotel. Saw a modest sign for a Thai restaurant that would be easy to walk past. It looked good through the window with a menu of classics and interesting items at great prices (for anywhere, let alone R-U-T). Seemed to be a high proportion of of locals (all except us I felt). Very attentive staff, food served quickly that tasted great. Loved it. Hope we come back to R-U-T just so we can go there.

Fast and very friendly service but I don't understand why the massaman curry was sweet? It was almost sickly sweet and didn't finish the portion.
