Hard to be constructive about this place!
Bad, flavourless food. If you ask for an explanation, the waitresses either pretend not to understand or give you some far-fetched explanation.
I love Thai food, but this place is quite simply a disgrace.
This place should be avoided like the plague.

The main dish was ok (no reason to use canned corn, though), the chicken in the soup tasted odd. the main reason i will not return is the unannounced 10 pound minimum per head - i just think this is rude. Usually i spend 10 pounds anyway, but if not and i am ordering a main dish i prefer not to be forced to order more food that i do not want to eat or more drinks i do not want to drink.

i had been to Lakorn Thai once before during the summer with friends and found the food over priced and the staff unhelpful. During a visit to Saddlers Well i found myself entering cautiously again. this time the food was delicious, authentic (very similar to the food i had eaten on holiday in Thailand) and the staff extremely polite. i was informed that Lakorn Thai is under new management and honestly what a difference it has made! do not be put off by any previous experiences, give it another chance!

RUDE service.
Had dinner before a show at Sadlers Wells, though I never actually got to eat.
My 2 friends had both finished their meals & I still had not received mine. I was rudely told that the curry was made fresh & so takes longer... not an encounter I have found in other Thai restaurants. The management are so rude I would avoid at all costs.

My girlfriend is, as I type, speaking to a waitress who works at this establishment. She is trying, it would seem in vain, to get a refund for a dish that we ordered as take-away, were charged for, but never received. We offered them the option of delivering our food to us or giving us back our money - they are struggling to grasp the concept of either. I ordered duck by the way: flabby, fatty chunks of meat swimming in a greasy, insipid "curry" sauce. Our coconut rice, which we did receive, was overly sweet and the prawns were, well, prawny. All in all a little bit rubbish. Do as the rest of London seems to have done, judging by the amount of people in the restaurant, and don't go.

Absolutely awful. First they brought me the wrong meal, but when the right one arrived i wished i'd gone with the first option. I ordered rice cooked in a pot with chicken, sausage and mushroom. It was dry boiled rice, plain flabby bits of chicken, barely cooked chunks of mushroom, and the piece de resistance - chopped up frankfurters. Then the whole thing was covered in soy sauce resulting in a ridculously salty experience. my date ordered spicy chilli beef and got scraps of meat dripping in soy sauce and sesame seeds. the meals both cost £8.50 but were not worth 50p. For the love of food - do not go here.
