Spices Thai - Maungakiekie-Tamaki

You can’t get better quality Thai food at a lower price. Incredibly tasty and satisfying meals for less than $15, honestly don’t think you can get any better than this

Great service and good food. We had the Snapper in tamarind sauce, spare ribs, then from kid’s menu Pad Thai and chicken wings and rice, sundae and banana fritters with ice cream for dessert. The fish and the tamarind sauce was delicious. We may order the fillet instead of the whole fish next time but can’t complain as it was great. Also, we just realised that chicken wings may not be suitable for the kid’s menu or basically for my kids unless they know how to eat with bones. The Pad Thai was tasty and sweet. If only we didn’t have to shoo flies away once in a while it would have been a great dining experience. Will still come back to try their other dishes.

This place was absolutely great!!<br/ <br/ The food was impeccable! Hands down one of the best pad Thai’s I’ve had so far<br/ <br/ The wait staff was really amazing! They were nice polite and mad this a great experience!

A decent selection of Kiwi-style Thai favourites for lunch.  The Penang is great, as are the noodle dishes.  Service is friendly and quick. If you like Thai and live nearby it's a good option. I wouldn't necessarily call it a destination restaurant if you don't live nearby, but I'll certainly go back.

We dined here as a group of four on Saturday 24 June 17, as we have done several times in past years. I ordered the golden prawns entree shared between my wife and I and I give them good marks for that dish. However my Massuman lanb curry was less satisfactory, quite bland and lacking in a real Thai curry flavour. Also the meat chunks were large and seemed to have just been pulled apart by hand rather than sliced which I prefer. Others at the table were more satisfied with their main dish choices. The decor is interesting for a Thai restaurant, more suited to a modern European style establishment as it has very little if any Asian emphasis. Service was polite and efficient however the restaurant had few diners as the time clashed with the All Blacks vs Lions game. A place to return to occasionally but not regularly.
