   We used to like the Emerald, been awhile since we’ve tried it out. Tonight was a disaster. We will never be back and we would not recommend it to anybody. The wine was off and I had to ask for a second glass from a fresh bottle which was fine, The entree was only just passable And the main was completely inedible, had an awful smell to it the meat was old and tough and we couldn’t eat it and didn’t eat it. We advised them that the meal was inedible and left. Never will we go back again. Plenty of other good Thai restaurants to choose from in Papakura.

   Unfortunately the stir fried chicken cashew nut and chilli chicken was the worst we have had. The sauce was very wetted down and the rice was not for thai food. Don’t get the money bags or curry puffs - tasted like Indian samosas. The Thai chef was lovely and got me to try her authentic soup which was amazing - I should have ordered it as it was an off the menu item. A lot of food too - it’s not always about quantity over quality unfortunately.

   Went there with a friend. The owner was sooo lovely! She made us feel very welcomed. Together we ordered the tom yum goong, the green curry and the chicken satay. Everything was very yummy and definitely recommend it!! Thanks for the yummy food and the amazing service!!

   Authentic thai food. Owners are friendly and checks in on customers, asks for feedback and overall good people serving the community with Thai cuisine.

   Our first time visiting and we will regularly be back. Wonderful ladies so friendly and welcoming and every dish was a mouthful of bliss. You could tell the produce was the freshest and everything made by hand, fresh on sight. My partner said his green lamb curry was the best curry he has tasted and he has had a few lol. The spring rolls were so tasty and my chicken vegetable dish was bursting with the flavor of fresh ginger. And omg the jaffa ice cream was to die for with the decadent rich chocolate cake. A rememberable delightful anniversary dinner.

   Tried this restaurant first time last night. Ordered Gang Pah, takeaway and first time ever i found rotten vegetables in the curry which is clearly visible in the curry. See the picture attached of a rotten carrot for example in my Gang Pah last night. The broccoli was not green, all discoloured and dried out. Huge amount of non chewable veggie stock (stem) was used which was a total waste. Very disappointed with my first experience here.

   Found this gem searching keywords on google. The Emerald Thai Restaurant was really good to be fair. We came here for takeaway and we were highly impressed by the manner of the lady’s working their night away, Our order consisted of a Main stir fry - Chicken Pad Med Mamuang (26) @ $19.50 and a Main currie - Chicken Gang Keaw Wan (36) @ $19.50 and 1x Rice. Blend those all together and yum ! Highly recommend for your next Thai fix. Able parking and quick turnaround on the order. Thanks,
