Place is solid enough for a quick lunch. Food is served rapid coming sometimes in boxes and sometimes in bowls etc. Pictured is a good cross section of the type of food to expect (I’m not going to name them as they are in Thai and incredibly hard to remember/ order) but you can get a mix of finger food to share, hearty curries using chicken, beef or pork and rice / noodle boxes topped with well seasoned meat and veg. I personally have a trade off between flavour and speed, if it doesn’t taste the best but it came in 5 minutes flat then that makes me happy. The longer it takes the better I expect it to be. This food came all within 5 or so minutes and tasted great. Not the most wild of flavours (e.g not incredibly spicy) but not under seasoned. My beef was a bit chewy but besides that can’t really complain. The staff are friendly and happy to help, though the place in general gives off quite a “hipstery” vibe. I can’t quite figure out why but that’s how I feel when in there. Overall good for a quick meal with acquaintances / friends / family, not fine dining. Cheers!

Overview
Ting Thai on Byres Road is the West End home of Ting and Ae Tapparat's Thai street-food restaurants, at 94 Byres Road (the former Hill Bar). The couple first cooked at the Edinburgh Festival in 2012, built venues in Edinburgh, then opened in Glasgow; this branch launched on 10 March 2022 as the city's second site after West Nile Street. That city-centre branch closed in November 2025 with a notice directing diners here, so Byres Road is currently the only Glasgow Ting Thai.

We took some food to go and it was delicious! Soup was perfectly packed to take away and food was still warm after 45min walk! Broth delicious, refreshing and rich. Noodles also great! Portions really big for the price. Highly recommend!
Read on Google MapsVisited on a Saturday afternoon after hearing this place had mixed reviews Couple who joined us ate there a few months ago and the service was ok but food really bad Advise to sit away from the door. Has Tom yum and it was pretty nice. Noodle dish was overloaded with dark soy sauce. Everyone else said the food was better then before Price wasn’t that bad at £30 a head When you order it’s like tapas style. Book in advance
Read on Google MapsTINGled and THAIngled . Food is delicious, served quickly, hot, and soooo tasty. We both had soup/ saucy dishes so they came in a bowl, dry dishes come in a box. We also had cocktails that were absolutely the best, not drowned in juice so you can taste the subtle and spicy flavours coming through the alcohol.
Read on Google MapsAbsolutely loved our lunch at Ting Thai! The food was incredibly delicious and full of authentic Thai flavors — and the prices were very reasonable too. We had the perfect window seat, which made for great people-watching. Our server, Tony, was so attentive, friendly, and just wholesome all around — he really made the experience extra special. A definite 10/10 — we’ll be back for sure!
