My lunch partners are elderly and often fearful of anything spicy. Massamun curry is the favourite. All meals are cooked on the spot and the level of spicy or heat can be specified when ordering. Parking can be a pest. You are lucky if you can score a park in the street but there is a parking area very close. It often looks full but somehow you can score a park. Eating there is very pleasant as there are windows that are open along the side of the restaurant where the tables are lined up.

The soy wings with sesame seeds was deliciously sticky and full of flavour. The lamb cutlets were cooked to perfection for me slightly rare and very very good. Next up was red curry beef and fried rice. The beef was tender and sauce delicious and it comes with a flaky piece of roti yummmm but there was not much beef for the price of 16 bux. So not worth the price for a few pieces of meat! Fried rice was great too. My only complaint is that you have to bring your own soft drinks which is so bizarre and I only found out after we sat down so had to walk up to the service station which was annoying and raining. So points off for that but food is a big thumbs up and I'll be back with my own soft drinks lol

There are a few Doytao restaurants in Sydney, and they are all consistently good, in my experience…read more I fell in love with them in Newtown, and was delighted when we had a couple pop up closer to us. I am a big fan of the King Street Fried rice, their duck salad is wonderful, and their Red Duck Curry is good too. Volcano Chicken is a bit of a spectacle if you want some theatre at the table. Very reasonably priced, and friendly and efficient staff. Not really sure why I have not given it five stars. Better rectify that, as I am sitting here and can't think of a single negative. Five stars it is!

This used to be my go-to Thai restaurant, but recently, their food standards and service has been…read moreheading down a negative trend. The ambience and furniture is modern and great but that's as good as things get unfortunately. Starting with the service, it seems like the restaurant had been sold to another owner who changed all the staff. They had no idea what they were doing and had to keep referring my questions to their head (I'm guessing boss/manager). When we asked the waitress if a particular dish was any good, she referred that question to her boss before saying 'I don't know!'. Waiters should always know what their dishes taste like!! Secondly, the waitress wanted ME to open the bottle of red wine I ordered because she was scared the cork would pop open in her face. Yikes. The food was average. I've had much better thai elsewhere. The Deep Fried Fish with Mango Salad (~$29) was more like deep fried fish fingers. The menu had a picture of the whole fish presented on the plate but I ended up getting bits of fish deep fried. Not impressed unfortunately. Their paw paw salad was large in portion but lacked good flavour. Most disappointing dish would have to be the deep fried ice cream ($10.90). It was definitely deep fried, maybe 2 hours ago? The outside layer was cold and oily. I had basically paid for vanilla ice cream. Not a happy customer as you could understand. However, if you do end up eating here, you must have the Ox Tongue ($10.50). They grilled that to perfection. Delicious. I don't like giving bad reviews but this place has become one of the forgettable restaurants I've been to. Sad sad face.

Thainamic is another one of my favourite thai restaurants, have been here many time their service…read moreis pretty damn awesome, especially when a friend and I turned up at 9.45pm after work for dinner and they were closing but still let us in and order food. All on a Thursday night! When you at the restaurant on a quite night the service of food is about average waiting times, but if you go on a weekend you do wait a little while more and it's recommended that you do call ahead and book a table to avoid disappointment, because honestly it's one of the most busiest restaurants in canley vale from Friday to Sunday. As for the food, one of my personal fav is the crying tiger it's a just try, it's beef strips marinated In a zesty chilli sauce, but it's not that spicy it's just nice. And the pad thai and thai curries are authentic and pretty damn nice! Only problem is trying to find a park on the weekend, sometimes you have to park a few streets away. Overall a very pleasant dining experience.

I've been ordering from here regularly since moving to Caringbah a few months ago. My boyfriend…read moreloves the pad thai, and they do a good yellow curry as well. We usually get take away, which is always prepared quickly and turns out delicious, but sometimes we stay and eat there. Tonight we ate in, as I'm trying to cut down on my plastic consumption, and it's nice to have a dinner out. We got some vegetarian spring rolls to start, which were delicious - perfectly crispy outside, served super hot, love it. I ordered a vegetarian pad thai which came with tofu and veggies, and my boyfriend ordered a chicken pad thai. The food was all really good. The pad thai tasted a bit sweeter than normal, and the sauce they use is very flavorful. But all in all, it was great. His pad thai was delivered a few minutes before mine, which I always think is a bit weird when you're eating out and there are only two of you and they deliver one persons food but then the other one takes a while. It was all fine though, and we left full, happy, and with a bill under $40. Oh, this restaurant doesn't have alcohol, but you can BYOB, and Liquorland is just across the street. So if you fancy a beer or glass of wine, stop in to Liquorland first.

I can't comment on the non vegetarian dishes but no one I have been with has ever been unsatisfied. They also do quick takeaway. It is usually semi full but have never needed a booking yet.

Situated in the heart of Crows Nest is this Gem of a Vietnamese restaurant, serving up tasty traditional cusine. The restaurant also has a traditional aesthetic look and feel which also reflects the style of food. With bamboo lining the walls and Vietnamese themed art, it feels welcoming and genuine. The service was prompt and super friendly and our waiter was extremely charismatic. Upon looking at the menu it was nice to see this restaurant is involved with a charity that helps the children of Vietnam, with 50c from every meal going towards building schools in regional areas. It is wonderful and is inspiring to see that this restaurant gives back. The menu items sport a list of Vietnamese favourites with an emphasis on flavour. For starters, we couldn't go past their amazing spring rolls with a crispy rice paper shell filled with a flavoursome pork filling. We also tried the warm freshly steamed rice paper rolls too. The sugarcane prawns are another good option. There is a nice subtle sweetness from the prawn paste and the sugarcane, which itself also edible and provides some texture. A new addition to the menu are the signature bao bun with crispy pork. Highly recommend as an entree choice. Bun Xeo is always on the hit list, Especially the roast duck variety of this crispy Vietnamese pancake/crepe which stems from the French colonial influence. This was a great version of this dish with a crepe that was nice and crisp, and this is not always the case when we have ordered this dish at other places. Plenty of filling beansprouts and roast duck, as well as mint and salad on the side and also comes with a sweet and sour sauce for added flavour. This was a return visit, on the initial visit we had Pho on our mind, the rich flavour of Hoi'an style broth brewed for 24 hours and it certainly hit the mark. This time I had another delicious soup on my mind. A soup with a bit of spice, the Bun bo hue. The Bun bo hue was on point the soup having done its time to develop rich flavour and had a nice amount of spice. This soup is not only tasty, it was also quite filling with plenty of meat and noodles. The vermicelli bowl which came with BBQ pork skewers and a flavour packed marinated pork was also a generous serve. The pork this time had a lot more flavour than most, probably one of our favourites. I love Pho is a great Vienamese restraunt serving quality traditional Vietnamese cuisine. The food is reasonably priced, the servings are large and the service friendly. Well worth a visit and we will be back.

First of all, I feel that I'm somewhat cheating on my favourite Thai restaurant ('It's time for…read moreThai') by giving this place such a good review (maybe I'd give it 5 starts if it wasn't for the cheating factor/guilt...MAYBE). I only got take away and didn't actually sit for a meal but sweet mother of God...I asked for a spicy green curry and a spicy green curry is what I got! Delicious, hot, burning down my curry-loving throat. Now as much as I love the aforementioned Thai restaurant, it sometimes does lack on the spicy factor a bit...I guess they're not used to Westerners loving spicy food. Anyway, you wouldn't think much of this place from the outside, but if you have a Thai craving and you're around Maroubra, don't think twice!

And they have a weird system or ordering your food you go to the counter first then sit at a table. We had ordered 2 pad Thais and as soon as I tasted it all I could taste was burnt food, it had a charcoal taste to it, and it was more expensive than other thai restaurants I've been too. Only plus side to this place is that their is ample parking around due to it being in a shopping centre.
