The
most memorable thing about this standard Indian restaurant was the
magnetic cutlery.
While
waiting for our food, the Bull and I amused ourselves by lifting
our forks with the magnetic knife. Little things...
Anyway.
What else can I say? It was nice enough. My prawn puree arrived
looking impressive, and it was tasty, though a little rich for my
tastes.
The
Bull's dall soup was also good.
Our
curries were ok. Nothing amazing, but they did the trick. We washed
them down with lager.
I did
notice that the majority of customers in the restaurant were regulars.
The happy chap who was front of house was impressively familiar
with them, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Which
is always a good thing.
I don't
think I'd go back - the service until the happy chap showed up was
a bit surly, and the food wasn't anything special.
But
it was nice enough. And the cutlery was fun.
Rob and Liz Cavelli Driving home always takes us past the Ambar, and on this occassion we decided to try it. The food was allright, but nothing special.We prefer the Almas Indian Brasserie in Dore Village. By far the best indian restaurant in Sheffield- gorgeous food.
Steve Half the reviews here aren't even about this restaraunt.
This is an INDIAN restaraunt, and a very good one. Good service, good food and resonably priced. What more do you need?
David I've tried many dishes at the bahn nah and can't fault any. There is definitely much more to appreciate than the banana fritters & ice cream there! I have to say that the dishes stir fried with basil and chilli sauce are one of my favourite. The chef makes a home made paste from fresh holy basil & chillies. They get deliveries from thailand of fresh herbs & ingredients. Other thai restaurants i have visited taste very bland & much like chinese food which i cant say i like. I prefer the sharpness of thai!
Lucy i've never been to another thai restaurant in england with such delicious generous portions. having been to thailand many times, i can say the food certainly is authentic, sometimes better! i think people are a little too influenced by glitzy decor and beautiful surroundings!
Moorfoot Mike We went a few eeks back, so August 2005, and we all thought it was fine. The food was good, plenty of it and priced as expected. Waitress gorgeous -am I allowed to say that?
nad i went in with my partner on our 14th wedding anniversary, the service was poor to say the least, the food was absolutely foul and was so so over priced.
Anony George/Anna...am I missing something because the last time I went in Anbar (last week) it was an Indian - not Thai ?! Very nice food & staff.
Anna I think the food is great. So the tables are a little close together, but if you drink enough you just get chatting to your neighbours! The food is genuinely home cooked, i've been going there since the head waitress was running about at the age of 4 and the standard has not slipped. Not too expensive, very spicy and leaves you stuffed, the best Thai cuisine in Sheffield.
Rebecca This review is rubish! The food and service is amazing!
jenna I think it is really gud!
George Very average Thai/UK food with little fresh genuine Thai content,having worked in Thailand for 4 years I must say I was a little bit disapointed with the food, even with a recomendation from a old friend, Sheffield now has much better Thai restaurants to get the genuine thing, which I have found out first hand, the thai fishcakes were the best item I tasted on the menu, but I will not be back for sometime having found much better for now.

Katt Ok, so it has been a while since I dined here as I have moved out of the area but I can't believe the standard has fallen so much! I had some amazing meals at Bah Nah and am shocked that Greedy Cow skipped the starters. The fishcakes are amazing, a perfect balance of fish, lemongrass and spices. The massaman was delicious, creamy and peanutty. And the specials board always offered something new to try. Staff were friendly and attentive and I think you got excellent value for money especially if you went in a group and had a set meal (get to try more as well).

Anna I used to go to this place fairly regularly and the guy who seems to be in charge is lovely. However on the last few occasions the food has been bland and oily, and I will not be returning.
Stuart Hi
I agree with all the comments about the Bahn nah and to be honest most of the other thai restaurants around the uk I have tried. It is very difficult to find authentic thai food here which I love. Many of the problems are because of lack of ingredients available here. The comment about basil leaves out of a jar I can understand. The basil leaves they need to use in this dish are called holy basil. This cannot be found here unless you go to a specialist store. The nearest store from Sheffield you can get this is Manchester. Fresh holy basil goes bad after only a couple of days and is very difficult to grow here too. This is why you need to use from a jar.
Dave Jobling I recently ate some food from this establishment and i thought it was lacking in some areas, the chicken was rather rubbery and the sauce was rather bland to say the least, although I would add that certain parts of the meal were delightful particularly the can of pop.
