    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.

    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.

    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

    The Pure Blonde is a lighter substitute for Singha. It's pretty good if you're looking for something more local.

    Try the duck panang. First I thought 20$ for a curry was a bit pricey, but now I think it's worth it.

    Tom Yum Mushroom is great. DO NOT ORDER jungle curry. I repeat, do not order jungle curry unless you like drain smell.
