    We were celebrating a birthday and wanted to try an Asian restaurant away from the hustle and…read morebustle of Dominion Rd but close to home in Greenlane. So one rainy night we entered the establishment located on a small strip of stores, with a barbershop and a Chinese restaurant on adjoining sides. The restaurant is longer than it is wide, the lighting and ambiance was just right to draw you in. We were promptly seated by women wearing Chut Thai. We started with the curry puff, golden squid, money bags (thoong thong) and Tom Kha (coconut soup). All very excellent and tasty. The Tom Kha was some of the best I've had. For the main course we had no.40 grilled beef hot plate, no.47 whole snapper in tamarind sauce(they honored our request to put the sauce on the side) and no.55 Drunken noodles. All flavored well and tasty especially the snapper. For desert we had the fried banana and the snow ball (fried ice cream). Both well executed with the banana being ripe and sweet. We parked on the street just outside but they have a private parking lot which we didn't see initially located down a narrow alleyway next to the restaurant. They also kept the restroom very clean. The waitresses were very attentive and the owner/manager was very personable. We split our time between Atlanta and Auckland and I've had my share of Thai food and this restaurant impressed me so much it is now on my rotation list.

The customer service is the best I've experienced in Auckland, and the restaurant is just the cutest little place. I used to live in Thailand so I consider myself a connoisseur of Thai food. I ordered a yellow curry and my bf got the pad Thai (he is on a mission to find the best pad Thai). This was definitely one of the best curries I've ever had. Super authentic! And the presentation is so good. My partners pad Thai even came with a little carrot flower - how cute is that!! We were having such a good time that I didn't want to leave, so we ordered dessert. They have mango sticky rice!! They serve it with dairy ice cream (not necessary for this vegan, but my partner ate it just fine) which was so good!! We also had two chang beers & some veggie spring rolls to start - so good!! This place makes me want to go back to Thailand yesterday! If you're in the area & you're a fan of Thai, definitely check this place out!!
