Thai restaurant in New Zealand

“Awesome the taste of Thai, staff very friendly and helpful with good service, yummy thai food.”

“This is the best Thai food we've had in all of New Zealand--and we've tried many Thai places. We've celebrated many birthdays here and other events, and the food never disappoints. The waitresses are attentive and always remember us. Just make sure you have a booking as they are popular.”

“Simply PERFECT !! We went there with my boyfriend and had the pad Thai and the Thai fried rice, everything was perfect from the service to the quality of the food. The server is very polite, respectful, the food tasted great honestly it’s a super place to have lunch !”

“I can’t believe there’s a Thai vegan restaurant with no onion and garlic… got my heart pumping, ordered som-tom salad and Tom Kha Gai soup with jasmine rice…. Yumo yumo”

“The most flavourful pad thai Ive ever had, with really generous portion and they DID NOT skimp on the prawns! The price is soo good and service is efficient and so welcoming. Would definitely come back.”

“We had a great experience at this restaurant! We started with the coconut prawns and spring rolls — both were very flavorful and fresh. For mains, we had the Pad Thai and Thai Green Curry, which were absolutely delicious. The service was excellent — the lady who served us was so nice and friendly, and the gentleman was very prompt and attentive. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we loved the place!”

“Our 2nd time enjoying their amazing food and this time we chose to dine in. The kitchen was a hive of activity as many came to collect their orders as well as a lot of uber eats. We pretty much had the restaurant to ourselves which was bliss. We were able to enjoy their amazing dishes as though we had booked the place just for us (couldve been everyone was glued to the Wahs game) as I have definately seen it a lot busier usually. Faultless service and beautiful decor. Perfect atomsphere for a rare date night. The food was incredible as always, super fresh, perfect amount of spice and large portions meant we were able to take the leftovers home to enjoy further. Super accomdating of a severe food allergy. As much as we would love to keep this place secret just for us, they definately earnt a 5 star review! Meals we had; Satay chicken sticks, Curry puffs(best ive had) Spring rolls Tempura chicken cashew stir fry Yum Thai salad with beef All in all a wonderful local business providing everything you hope for when you venture out for a lovely meal. 10/10 will be returning for more!”

“Great service, food was excellent will definitely come back again.”

“Wonderful place to meet up. Food is great and authentic. Atmosphere very friendly. See you there.”

“Ten out of ten for this restaurant, making it great value for money. I ordered Somtam, Tom Saep Beef and Tom Yum Wonton the meal showcased the essence of authentic Southeast Asian cuisine. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for bold flavors and variety in their meals!”

“We are regular visitors to the restaurant and it absolutely lives up to the hype! From start to finish, the experience is always fantastic. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting, with a lovely, authentic atmosphere. The flavors are so fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced. The food is rich and creamy with just the right amount of spice, and traditional Thai dishes are tangy, sweet, and packed with flavor. The service is always top-notch. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Portion sizes are very generous, offering great value for money. Without a doubt, this is the best Thai food in North Canterbury. We can't wait to come back and work our way through the rest of the menu. Highly, highly recommend! A must-visit!”

“Was recommended this place by a freind, it had been playing in my mind to order here as I had tried their lard about three years ago and it was average as. Nonetheless I ordered. We were told 40 mins. We waited some more. With a 40 minute wait you’d expect to walk in and have mutlple chefs gone but no. There was one. I walked in the store and got the food. After a brief and frisk drive home, the smell of this takeaway wofting into my nostrils had me readily for a goon. I then got home. One sip of the Panang curry, One bite of curry puff, one tear of spare rib. I knew I’d hit a gem! Ken oath legends This Thai place is a keeper!”

“This Thai restaurant offers authentic Thai cuisine. The quality of the food was exceptional, and the level of service provided was commendable. I would highly recommend this establishment and intend to return in the future.”

“Absolutely great service, quick and tasty food. Even scored 2 free cans of drink as it was hot weather. Highly recommend!!”

“We are visiting Chch and had the crispy pork pad Thai and it was the best we’ve ever had. Also the peanut satay chicken and that also was so delicious as was the BBQ pork fried rice, moneybags and the spring rolls were yummy. Highly recommend. We can’t wait to try it again soon. Thank you .”

“So good, nicest Thai food I've had in a while! Lovely service too. As a vegetarian, they specially made my pad thai for me to have tofu instead of meat which was a really nice gesture. :)”

“This is one of my favorite Thai places in canterbury. If you live outside of lincoln, it is worth the drive in to try this place. I have had the pad Thai twice and the crispy fish which comes highly recommended. Don't be afraid of the spiciness, get the medium! Beef cheek curry is to die for.”

“Went to Hello Vietnam last for phở . We got the beef special. That was one of the best phở we have had including during our recent trip to Vietnam. Today we went back for bánh mì and cà phê sữa đặc. The fillings and taste of the bánh mì are truly authentic. The size is a bit bigger than in nam. We could only eat one between us, the other came home for dinner. The coffee was superb. We will be back for certain.”

“I had a beaut Nasi Goreng, recommended.”

“Great thai food, large take away portions. Friendly helpful staff”

“We walked in off the street with our 2 mokos. There was no hesitation about giving us the last table. The restaurant was so very busy but there was a very relaxed feel, despite their busyness. The attendents were friendly and engaging. There was an apology for the length of wait time but no apology was needed, the food was delicious, your service tops and the atmosphere was perfect. Lovely evening. Helped to end our beautiful weekend. Thank you!”
