The Thai food at this restaurant is always consistently delicious. I tried the green chicken, red duck, and massaman curries, and all of them were excellent with just the right amount of spice. I highly recommend this place.

I ordered takeout from this restaurant through Menulog because they were offering free delivery and a 10% discount for new customers. The delivery was fast, the food was delicious, fresh, and still hot. I highly recommend this place!

We visited this restaurant which was very close to a train line which made getting too very simple! Inside is a very humble and family owned Authentic Thai restaurant where the food is orchestrated by the mother of the family. We were greeted by a kind gentlemen who offered us water and drinks on arrival. <br/ <br/ We were provided a set menu with an array of different Thai dishes. Our entree was the Garden wrap and parcel barramundi. Both light, and full of flavour. Then main were the Yellow Lamb Shank Curry, Pud Thai (the most popular item they offer) and Kana Moo Krob (Chinese broccoli and lightly deep fried pork spareribs). Dessert was your traditional Mango and sticky rice (not my thing, but still nice to try different cultures desserts), and my fav Banana fritters with Coconut icecream! <br/ <br/ I would recommend visiting the lovely venue when you have time this year, it’s all MCG free, locally sourced ingredients and made with passion! <br/

I have walked past Khun Thai many times and from the outside it doesn't look like anything special but we decided to give it a try and oh my gosh am I glad we did! My husband and I were honestly blown away, the food was outstanding, every bite was full of flavour, we couldn't get enough! This is the best Thai we have ever had and we will definitely be back and will be telling all of our friends. The staff were super friendly and plus it's BYO!

Amazing food!!! Had tom yum soup, fried spare pork ribs and steamed prawns on curry and all of them, though a bit salty for my liking, were so flavoursome, fragrant and perfectly cooked!! Can't wait to come back again for other dishes!
