Brilliant food
Some of the best Asian food I have had in a long time, but I have always ordered takeaway so can't comment on the service.

Excellent value for money
I'd have to disagree with the previous reviewer in that I don't think it is particularly like Wagamama. It has wooden furniture and you can see what they're doing in the kitchen, but the similarities end there. For one, the service couldn't be more different. The staff are surly and inefficient but it makes a refreshing change from the sickly faux-friendliness of Wagamama staff. It feels a lot less corporate. The meals are big and tasty, but you have to watch the hot dishes. One week it could be perfectly managable, the next week it could rip your tongue to shreds. But its part of the fun.
They've added to sushi to the menu now, I've not tried it but it looks good and you seem to get a lot for your money - which is theme of this place.
This place is hugely popular and I don't think I've ever walked past and seen it empty. Be prepared to queue on Friday and Saturday nights!
By the way, I can't fault Annika's suggestion to combine it with a visit the Renoir and the Perserverance. The shops in the Brunswick now are pretty decent too.

Cheap and cheerful
This is the perfect place for someone who cherishes great Thai food at super-decent prices without caring too much about the athmosphere. The food is absolutely amazing and surprisingly cheap - a menu with something for everyone, huge portions, beautifully presented, very tasty (definitely try the seafood and/or the curry laksa!). But admittedly the place feels a little too 'wagamama' if you know what I mean. Anyway, an evening with friends combining dinner at the H&T with an arthouse movie next door at the Renoir and a drink afterwards at 'The Perseverance' is difficult to beat.
