Thai restaurant in New Zealand

“Had an awesome time with my family celebrating Mother’s Day at Me Thai and left feeling full from the great food especially the lamb massaman, the soft shell crabs, chicken satay etc”

“Good place to dine or takeout. I prefer takeout cause I live close good for the community surrounding them”

“Had a wonderful service and great food at this restaurant. Very friendly & patient staff. We came as a group of 15-17 people including 5+ kids and the staff were very helpful and considerate. Everyone ordered something different and yet all the food was delicious and everyone was satisfied. Bill was also reasonably priced and good value for money. Highly recommend to everyone and will definitely come again.”

“We heard about this restaurant through the local Thai community page on Facebook. We went there for Saturday lunch and are very pleased we did. It brings back fond memories of time we have spent in Thailand. Inside it is cosy and the decor is quite interesting and not overstated. The menu seems to be based on Thai street food plus many of our favorites, we had Basil stir fry with pork mince, Moo Ping and the best dish of all, crispy Pork belly with stir fried vegetables. I haven't had such good trasting crispy pork for many years. Everything was so good we bought two more dishes and took them home for dinner. However, of late they have been a bit Lackadaisical, opening late or not opening at scheduled time, without notice or advice on the various websites.”

“I absolutely love Makiin Thai. I always go for the Som Tum salad, and it never disappoints. It's consistently very tasty and perfectly refreshing, with that great balance of lemon juice, fish sauce, and garlic. The service is equally wonderful, the team is so lovely, very friendly, and always serves you with a smile. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely love Maakindii Thai Street Food! This place delivers authentic Thai flavours that are bold, vibrant, and satisfying. Every dish we’ve tried has been full of depth and beautifully balanced”

“Wow! What an awesome find! This is easily the best Thai restaurant in Auckland. Our favourite mains are the Pad see ew and Green curry, both are always so delicious and fresh. Highly recommend their money bags as an appetizer! Everything is cooked to perfection. The owners are amazing and so friendly. We also called on Top Ten to cater for an event, and they went above and beyond for us. Their portions were generous and the price was great too. Thank you!”

“I love this place. Very friendly family-run business. Delicious food as always”

“Such a great Thai spot! Proper family-style cooking, generous portions, and absolutely delicious. We’re regulars here and it never disappoints. Super yum!”

“Good authentic Thai food. Prob best in Wellington, worth a try esp if you have been to Thailand a crave a fix. Best Phad Thai I have had in Wellington.”

“Amazing food and great value. We had the red curry paste crispy pork and the crispy salmon and both were excellent. The crispy spring rolls and curry puffs for entrees were very good too. Great service. We really enjoyed dinner here and will definitely return!”

“Great food. Tasty, good ingredients. Good vibes.”

“Lovely atmosphere. Didn’t feel like we were shouting over the noise that other restaurants have, it was good noise wise as I had a raging sore throat so was great that I don’t lose my voice. Me and dad had the beef Wellington and it was cooked to perfection we didn’t need to use steak knives as the normal knives cut like butter. The desserts my sister, dad and I had was very good. The bread was very fresh and hot. Love it so much would definitely recommend to everyone.”

On the plate at Vesey's Indian Restaurant & Bar, the idea is kebab and pita and well judged. Serve sizes show solid value. A family‑friendly feel comes through naturally. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy.

“Nice little place ran by a very very friendly and polite couple. Had the tom yum soup with prawn. Price is quite cheap. Overheard the gentleman at the counter telling a customer not to rush to pick-up her takeaway order when she asked to collect during their closing time (8pm). He said they will wait for her (aww).”

“Just with a friend and we landed upon a yummy meal in Mt Albert and spied LEMON GRASS. We dined in. Fast fresh and deeeelicious. A must eat. I think I'll bring my family here for dinner.”

“Never have to think twice about going back here for authentic Thai food, and love the traditional cute water cups. A lot of decor and tablewares remind me of home and traveling days in Thailand.”

“Got recommended this place by a friend and with the thought of supporting our local small businesses, four of us decided to eat in, theres only three tables and we took two lol. Lucky there werent any others eating in as it would be very cosy. We ordere green chicken curry, red chicken curry, pad thai, spring rolls curry puffs, tom yum soup and man was it fast coming out of their small kitchen. My fav is green curry and pad thai chicken of course. Was in and out in less than an hour which worked out good cause theres not alot of 60 min parking opposite. Highly recommend. Thanks Thai Hut.”

“Wow. This is a great little restaurant. The Duck Curry is to die for and this time the Beef with black bean sauce was also a winner. Thai fish cakes a bit bland but else was amazing. Even had a sea view. We also do Uber Eats from this restaurant too.”

“As a Vietnamese person visiting this restaurant abroad, I was really happy! When I walked in, the cozy vibe and yummy smells of Vietnamese food made me feel at home. The staff welcomed me with big smiles and took great care of me during my meal. I tried the pho, and it was amazing—rich broth, perfect noodles, and lots of fresh herbs and meat. Each bite was so flavorful, just like the street food in Vietnam. The spring rolls were also delicious, crispy outside and full of fresh ingredients. What I loved most was how the staff shared their favorite dishes with me and made great suggestions. Their love for Vietnamese food showed, making the experience even better. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants authentic Vietnamese food. I left super satisfied and can’t wait to come back. Give it a shot!”

“Such good food served by the friendly owner who was very attentive. He was also very funny and had a great sense of humor about one in our party being late. I tried the veggie red & green curries and both were perfectly done and piled full of vegetables. The rice is super fresh and doled our generously every few minutes so you don’t have to worry about getting hungry.”

“Absolutely love this place, all the food has been excellent and it's by far the best Thai food I've found in Wellington. Dishes like the "House special" are a highlight. 10/10 and I'll keep coming back again and again”

“Has to be the best Thai Restsurant in Christchurch .Food is the freshest and cooked to perfection. The restaurant is warm and beautifully presented. We would live to eat every night here. The food is presented amazingly. I recommend this place 100 per Noxcent. Thanks”

“We went for lunch for my sister-in-law's birthday. My daughter and I ordered specific dishes(as she doesn't eat all things, like a lot of teens), and has to be careful of peanuts. She had chicken stirfy and I had a pork and noodle dish. The others ordered a variety of starters and main dishes to share. Everyone loved the food. So tasty, the flavours are fantastic and good portions, we managed to take left overs for my partner to try. Would definitely go back. Thank you for a wonderful meal.”

The Diversity Restaurant leans into a pan‑Asian comfort approach with tidy execution. The room sits relaxed with an easy buzz. Service stays present without fuss. Dumplings and bowls carry clear, direct flavours.

“Dined with friends at the Matt Connell Wines Degustation dinner last night at Palate. Perfectly paired wines with the best tasting and perfectly presented food ever. Great friendly service by our waitresses and chef Matt himself. Get along people and support one of the best restaurants in Hamilton city.”

At Golden Rice Thai Cuisine, the menu stays Japanese‑leaning with tidy execution. There’s always a considered veg choice. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Sushi and hot dishes come out clean‑flavoured and precise.

“Food was great. We ordered pineapple fried rice, green curry, panang curry, Thai fried rice, spring rolls and chapathi. All of them were great and taste fresh. The curries were rich and creamy and portions were decent.”
