"Been a staple on Thames st for quite a few years now. Great Thai food. All the ingredients always fresh and delicious. The crispy Pad Thai with chicken is a favorite. As well as their spicy fried ruce. Love that you adjust the heat level on your meal from 1 normal to 5 fiery. When in mood for the freshest Thai around do not hesitate to try Tong-Phoon 👍"

"Stopped in during my first and only trip to Bristol - I'm a big fan of Thai food and pretty picky about it but I saw the good reviews and gave it a chance. I'm happy I did. If I'm ever back in town, I will absolutely visit Tong Phoon again. The tom yum soup was great and I loved the spicy cashew chicken. Both were delicious - and the portions were generous too! See pictures. Strongly recommend this place."
