Best vegetarian thai food i've had! Tried the Betel leaf tofu & vegetarian chicken with chilli with the coconut steamed rice -its all kinds of yummy! If you're in the vicinity, GO HERE!
Great service, scrumptious food, relaxed atmosphere . They keep your water topped up, unobtrusively, like ninjas. Just ask if u want to keep the rice box, cos they keep running off with it.
Awesome service. Great food - we had scallops and spring rolls for entree, and pad thai prawn and the duck curry for main. Couldn't fault any of it, but the duck curry is to die for!
They have a great vegan menu . My partner ordered a mock duck dish , I don't usually like mock meats as they can be a bit rubbery but I was really surprised how good it was!
There is a special seafood dish that is wrapped in foil and comes out in flames, very nice and creamy I highly recommend. The crispy pork dish is also nice. Extremely disappointed with green curry :(
Had red curry duck and must say it was AMAZING! Perfect amount of spicyness and also a perfect portion size. Loved it. Didn't like the size of the place. Felt more like a dining hall ....
Betel leave prawn as the entree, a popular one but I found a bit too sweet. Overall foods are good & satisfying. Best Thai in Sydney ? better lower your expectation, so you can enjoy your food more :).
Decor is a bit OTT, but the service is friendly and the food well presented and tasty! Love the fact they serve brown rice too.
Go on your birthday. You get balloons. You can also get a special Birthday Icecream dessert w mango in coconut icecream balls+ coconut & a few orange pcs. Sister(b'day), extra spec., shared w her. Yum
Crispy pork belly is on par with other popular Thai restaurants in Sydney. So far, it's very hard to justify where the best one is.
Tom yam soup was amazing! Better than the ones I've had in Bangkok. Also try the duck .
They have gluten free menu . Great food! Roast duck salad’s a winner for me. Service is excellent. Ambiance superb.
Delicious red curry duck , plenty of food and great service.
Are you a big fan of fish ? Get this damn super delicious barramundi curry !!! Second best after sex!!
This has to be one of the best Thai places in Sydney! Try the barramundi stir fry and Tom yum mushroom soup .
A regular for birthday celebrations. There's always a buzz and staff are fantastic. Food is consistent but I do prefer the Thai in Campbell street more (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
The Green Curry is pretty authentic but the chicken is a little bit tough

it really is the best thai restaurant in the city ! good service , good food, must go here again one day ????
Loved this snapper with chilli and the Roast Duck Salad ! Yum!
The barramundi is delicious. Get the banquet if you are coming with a group.
Green curry !! It's a most try! Great service!!
Great service and tasty food, lots of vegetarian options .
On your birthday they give you balloons and sing happy birthday to you while delivering you a dessert - then they'll take a pic and email it to you!
Pineapple rice with chicken curry is a much try
Can't go past the Chilli Hot Basil Crispy Pork .
Best Thai in Sydney d- lish Staff are awesome atmosphere +++
Truly recommend their seafood signature dish. Interesting flavors. The prawn entree on betel leaf is also beautiful.
Try the duck panang . First I thought 20$ for a curry was a bit pricey , but now I think it's worth it.
Can only confirm the rating! Top Thai restaurant !
The Pure Blonde is a lighter substitute for Singha. It's pretty good if you're looking for something more local.
Great food and staff , very fast service .
Vegetarian options are amazing
Tom Yum Mushroom is great. DO NOT ORDER jungle curry . I repeat, do not order jungle curry unless you like drain smell.
Definitely get a whole young coconut !
We love Thai cooking here yummy
A great place for tasty vegetarian meat dishes.
Amazing food and service!
Good, but too much spice in everything
the pad thai is delicious! and the service is really fast it's great!
Barramundi ????
Great food - good service . Recommend the massaman curry - deliciously done!
Chili prawns at their best
Still good after all these years
Thai papaya salad is unfortunately average. I've tasted better, fresher, crunchier elsewhere.
Good cheap Thai food
Try the Barramundi curry . :-) mmm yum
Love the service, recommend bbq pork ..
You must must must have the Miang Goong entree.
Moo Pa & Pad Prik King (crispy fish) are the best thing on the menu, but frickn hot. But totally worth it...yum - Vib Chakraborty
More authentic Thai than most, the Boat Noodles ( extra crackling) and the Beef Salad are great! Pandan juice was tasty too - Elif Durur
Green Papaya salad and Fresh King Prawn and scallop with chilli jam, shallots and basil. - Michael Field
Great venue and amazing acoustics. Well worth a visit to see any number of artists that pass through. - Scott Hargroves
The banana & salted caramel gelato when they have it - AMAZING!!! - Ren One
