Erawan Thai Authentic Thai Cuisine

After driving past this place when jumping on the motorway, I finally stopped by one lunch time to check it out. The food is still as authentic as it can be. The papaya salad I ordered was flavourful and balanced. Not too salty or too sweet, they hammer in the crabs already so it's easier to eat. The Thai Fried Rice Sour Pork was amazing! The flavours are there from the first bite. We also ordered the mixed entree which is a nice mix of deep fried items. The sauces were amazing. A tangy tamarind sauce that came with the papaya salad was unique and was a good addition to a complex dish (it also came with sticky rice). The sweet chili sauce was not too thick which is great as well. All in all we will definitely be regulars. Hearty Thai food that is still affordable.

The only place we came back twice during our Auckland trip. Amazing staff and AMAZING food! Highly recommend the Tom Yum but everything else was also absolutely delicious as well We’ll be thinking about it constantly after the trip. Locals, please eat at this place every week in our stead cause that’s what my friends and I would have done if we were in Auckland.

Such an unlikely place to find such an amazing selection of delicious , healthy foods. On entry you can’t help but mouthed have and A rated from council on cleanliness. Then the warm kind greetings from each staff, all older and well experienced . Prices then, are just in matched any where in New Zealand. The selection just grabs you. Basically anything you want, any way you want, not a problem. I had the Thai fried rice spicy with prawns and som tum green papaya salad. Portions were very generous. Time from ordering to plated was about 6 minutes. Absolutely recommended for any whom loves an authentic thai experience. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a whole fish, snapper $27 they will serve about 5 different ways. Excellent if you want to host a dinner party. Excellent if you need to bring a dish, just hands down mouth watering delicious

Prices were very cheap, yet the food tastes amazing and fresh. The staff were friendly and professional, and the service was very fast. Overall, great value and would highly recommend. Will definitely be returning.

Great place for Thai food! Staff are friendly and quick service. Great selection off dishes. Prices are good too especially for the portion size
