In a breezy summer evening, it is a cozy place to eat a Thai bbq with family. It was a combination of βhotpotβ and βbbqβ, very interesting experience; the little one loves shrimp in the soup, and I enjoy the tenderness of the pork. The sunset is wonderful today, sitting outside at the balcony was a perfect decision.
Thai friends is one of the most authentic Thai restaurants in Auckland. They do a damn good pad Thai and a killer drunken noodles. Excellent food and excellent service. Sterling Arnet Kakapo Business Sales
20/8/23, after today's experience we are withdrawing our previous review and recommendation. We ordered pork basil from the lunch menu, for allergy reasons we asked them to hold the fried egg. We also asked for the chilli level to be mild. When the food was bought out, there was fried egg on top of the rice. We queried this with the server who giggled and walked away. We called her back and reminded her that we didn't want the egg because of allergies, again she giggled and walked away. There was no offer to replace the dish., we ate what we could, only half the dish was edible and noticed that the chilli level was medium or higher. It seems she had completely ignored our request and restrictions amd before they mention it the $5 discount does not compensate for their poor service. We will not be eating here again, there are much better Thai restaurants on offer.
One of the best Thai restaurants in Akl, with excellent food quality and taste, especially Somtum and the hotpot. Very friendly staffs and chefs. We will definitely come back here soon.
We came at 6:50 to order 3 take away meals. We did not expect to wait the amount of time we did without any communication from any of the staff. During this long wait (to which we were not informed of any delays in the service) we had watched 2 other tables get seated and served food. We did get a bit restless and asked about our food about 35 minutes into the wait and the manager on shift told us βthe other person is checking for youβ (still no one come to tell us anything) It took another 20 minutes for our food to be delivered , at about 7:45pm. They did put in 3 cans of sodas in the bag (we donβt drink soda). When we got home, we found the food to be very disappointing. We have dined there a few times and it was great but this time was not good at all. Not to mention the portion size of one of our orders was laughably small for the amount we paid ($25 for the below). I canβt think of how this meal can be charged for that price.
On my regular Restaurant list Now. It was Great food. You can order from english menu but ask them for thai memu. It is more Authentic and tasty. Use Google translator to order but worth trying with little more effort will make you so happy. Must try somtam, salmon salad, fried rice and pork belly skewer with sticky rice. I am going there every week.
Pleasantly surprised. Discovered the main restaurant at the back, originally thought it was a kiosk outdoor typr of thing beside the road. I much preferred sitting inside. There's a lunchtime special, eating here can be inexpensive. There's a lovely deck out back to enjoy a bit of sky tower view. Food was lovely, can't complain. I would eat here again. Definitely want to try the curry!
