The prices were reasonable, although it would be better if the chicken was cut into strips.

Dining in has always been a great experience, but delivery is super easy and still just as delicious.

I can't comment of the dining experience but the food is the most incredible Thai I think I've ever had, Thailand included!

I must say, I've never once eaten in but the take away is spot on, reasonably priced, and super delicious! The duck gaeng dang is insane, so creamy, full of meat and perfectly matched with their coconut rice! The pad Thai is also incredible, certainly not dry and full of flavour and meat! It's definitely a usual when I'm in the area!

The restaurant is bright and clean. The interior is more like modern Thai style. We went for the special dish on their wall, which was prawn in mango curry, sambal sauce and brown mustard seeds. We also ordered tom yum soup, golden bags and pat ta krai (stir fried beef with lemongrass). My favourite one was the golden bags as they were perfectly fried. The down side was those leaves they put on plate for decoration, they were all wilted. Tom yum soup was very flavourful and perhaps is intense if you are not used to Thai food. My husband really enjoyed the prawn mango curry. It is so fragrant and has such interesting flavour, different from other Thai curries that we have had before. Our least favourite one was the stir fried beef with lemongrass, the beef was so overcooked and dry. Overall I think Shallot Thai is affordable and serves just above average Thai food. It is ideal for take-away meals or Thai quick fix.
