Highly recommend.

I've been eating Thai food from Rose of Thailand since they first opened quite a few years ago now…read more It's pretty much hidden away off Blackburn road, opposite the Syndal train station. I've been going there for very good reasons. The food is excellent. It's got acceptable décor. Service is usually pretty fast. Did I mention that the food is excellent? It's pretty well priced too. I usually grab a red beef curry, and that's under $15. A bit of coconut rice and maybe an appetiser, and you've got a nice dinner for two for around $25. Occasionally there are mistakes made when you order, like getting chicken instead of beef, and that sort of thing. But they'll bend over backwards to make things right. That's part of the reason I like them. They're very customer satisfaction focused. Give them a go. You'll really like the food. Especially if you get off the train at Syndal after a hard day at work.

Whenever I come to visit Melbourne from the States, Rose of Thailand is an absolute priority…read moredestination in terms of eating out. The food here is outstanding, and absolutely the best Thai available anywhere that I've been. The service is excellent and due to the price of dining out being pretty insane in Australia, I would say that the cost is just about right where it ought to be. I previously came here during a vegetarian phase and found myself attached to the vegetarian options on the menu, including fried rice, peanut curry, and a spicy noodle dish called Pad Kee Mao. I highly recommend any of those three, as the flavors are really outstanding. Being that I am yet to try any of their meat options, I can't speak to the quality of those, but the vegetables are fresh and the overall flavor of everything on the menu is really good. I would also recommend the Thai beer Singha with just about anything on the menu, as in my limited experience it is the best Thai beer that is widely available, and drinking an Australian beer at a Thai restaurant is just stupid.

The curries tend to be a little dryer than Indian cuisine, but they are no less tasty. I've seen similarly themed restaurants in the UK, a fusion of fish and chip shops with curry joints, and I think the concept works really well. Curry goes with chips beautifully, and this place makes delicious chips. The curry dishes themselves are really good. The biryani is recommended. The presentation is what you'd expect from a suburban curry takeaway, but the dining area is pretty decent. This place does get busy, particularly for the hopper nights. Prices are good. You'll be full for about $15. I know I was.

Who would have thought that chips and curry would make such an amazing combination. Certainly not me! (says the girl who dips her fries in her chocolate sundae..). The crunch of a good chip combined with a nice thick curry sauce is heavenly, and worth trying at least once. Chances are you will be heading back many times.

Upon arrival we were given poppadoms and two small dips (probably not enough for 3 people). We were all a little disappointed that the poppadoms resembled those that you can easily pick up in the supermarket rather than being of the large home made size that we have experienced in other Indian restaurants. The food we had was full of flavour and the plain naan bread simply a delicious accompaniment. All three of us were left satisfied & certainly had no room for dessert. Coupled with good service it made for a very pleasant evening.

You'll smell the undeniable aroma of authentic Indian cuisine before you see it, and if it weren't for the alfresco seating you might well just walk straight past. Offering traditional favourites such as butter chicken, chicken tikka and masala, for me I can't go past the Tandoori Platter - it's mouth wateringly delicious. The staff are beautiful and always so friendly and welcoming, and although the restaurant looks quite intimate, it's surprising how many people can actually be seated inside. A charming little cafe, and with BYO wine as well you can't go wrong.

Best. Butter Chicken. Ever…read more I hate to say it, but the problem with Indian takeout usually is the hygiene and cleanliness of the place. Not so at the Ginger Club. First impressions last, and you should be impressed with the fully glassed exterior, and clean and crisp interior. You can dine in or take out, which is great for when you can't be bothered looking half decent to sit in for a meal. And for the quality of what you get, the prices are cheap! Average mains cost around $11, and you can grab an entree for $5, bargain!! You also need to try out the chicken masala and lamb saag, mouthwatering!! Best place in or around Broady for authentic, quality Indian food.

I would like to update my review for this place…read more Eating in, while the place is always pretty empty is very good value. The banquet is beyond good value and so filling and yum.
