Mango Thai Tapas - Above Bar

About Mango Thai Tapas - Above Bar

Thai tapas in the middle of Southampton that manages the tricky combination of grown-up food and genuine patience with children — high chairs are there, there's a kids' menu, and a few outdoor tables if you'd rather not be indoors with a restless toddler. The small-plates format is the real win with children: order a few things, share, and nobody waits for a whole main course. Dumplings, veggie spring rolls, squid and the mango corn cakes come up again and again, and the golden Thai curry tastes properly made from scratch. Portions are generous — four people managing leftovers from seven tapas and two curries — and gluten-free eaters do better here than most places. Two honest snags: it gets very hot in summer with only a fan, and wine climbs steeply past the cheapest bottle. Service is the thing regulars rave about most.
