Curries were amazing too, slow cooked meat was so tender! I will continue to go there and my dad, stepmum and brother are all huge fans now (brother even had his 18th birthday there). The staff are so friendly, such a nice family restaurant. Highly recommend this place!!

The outside doesn't look like much but once inside, it is neatly decorated with great music making it a wonderful place to stop by for takeaway (close to train station) or if you are going for a dance lesson next door. We ordered a thai milk tea, chef's pork special (crispy pork with vegetables) and a beef massaman curry. The crispy pork was definitely our favourite along with the thai milk tea. This place has an entertainment voucher so next time I visit, I will be bringing that but overall caring and attentive service, staff seemed to know the regulars and has a relaxing atmosphere.

Tender juicy chicken. Good colour balance. Divine fragrance from herbs. Juicy eggs. Pretty little Carrot florets. Cute Kawaii plate as underlay for rice. Lots of juicy chicken pieces but not overwhelming. Succulent vegetables. Quick 3 mins under shelter walk from Carnegie train station. Best Deal: Value for $ at $11.50. It's a steal! Food: Generous Portion size. Good amount of Meat. Service: Waitresses are well presented, smiling & polite. Came quickly to us when we raised our hands for service. Atmosphere: Love the clean wooden white decoration theme. Temperature is Climate Controlled. Toilet is clean. Crowd: Young professionals with mixture of hip youngsters. Place is packed full of people eating and queuing thus the food must be good. The food turnover rate is high thus the food must be fresh. I give it 5 / 5 stars. I will surely come back again to try different dishes especially the tom yum & drinks as they all look tasty. I highly recommend you to bring your family, colleagues and friends there this week for a pleasant gastronomic experience. :) Best regards, Jianfa Ben Tsai Fat Guy with 35 years of Restaurant Dining Experience Managed Food Business Worked at 5 Star Hotels

I've been wanting to try this place for a while now!! But seems to be consistently busy / packed…read moreevery time I'm in the area so best to book! Unless you want to eat after the dinner rush hour. Anyhoooo I had to fight hard not to let my imaginary second stomach take control when ordering. The place was packed! No walking space with people waiting to pay and waitresses busting their chops to satisfy hungry people! I wanted to order one of each from the menu after spying what others were eating around me. It's a small place .. Easy to do.. :) The test benchmark for me when it comes to Thai is the green curry.. This was amazingly good! Not sweat to the level of drinking sugar water and the bamboo shoots used were thinly sliced and did not overpower the curry. Smooth coconut along with the herbs... oh man!! hmm this little piggy did not leave a drop! The glass noodle salad at first reminded me of fish sauce in the sun too long... think mild fish sauce that's watered down and ur there. I did like it though.. don't take it apart to eat... The coconut ice cream ... I kid u not .. I think one of the waitresses stole a bite ... found it odd that there was a small wedge missing when it was served. Our teaspoons were clean at least. In testing it out the theory .. we ordered another.. the second one had no wedge!! haha Oh the coconut ice cream served with salted nuts and mild / reduced condensed milk in a small beacon was really good! We could have had a tub of it. Light and not too sweat.

Unfortunately the curries lack an essential element; spiciness, a flaw that is very apparent in the green curry. They don't even provide any chilli on the tables. Eating Thai food with chopsticks also feels a bit strange. The fluffy roti goes well with the duck red curry. Beef with vegetables just ordinary though. Luckily the meal ended with a fabulous dessert platter. I love the glutinous rice pudding.

After walking into a nicely furnished and modern looking restaurants we had a look at the menu and settled on chicken panang curry, beef flat noodle stir fry with a side of rice and roti. Once the coke out we realised we had not been skimped on the portion department they were HUGE! The panang curry is probably one of the best that I have tried and the noodles were the perfect ratio of noodle to sauce that they weren't to dry, nor drenched in sauce. One suggestion I do make if your going to order an curry, order two sides of rice since there is that much rice! Wish this place was in Sydney! It would be my favourite!

The food is fresh and unlike many other Thai places I have tried (and there have been A LOT), the dishes are jam packed with crispy, delicious vegetables as well as perfectly cooked meat. Dine-in is BYO and always seems fairly quiet. These guys make a killing in take away but never fear, I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes for an order. Love it.

You can be forgiven for not knowing where this is located, because it's right on the corner of a busy shopping district on a busy road (Warrigul) and adjacent to a bigger Thai restaurant right next door. I must say, the level of food remains, and their presentation hasn't altered, but it was a longer wait that we're used to here, and it took a lot of repeating to be sure the staff had the orders down correctly. Everything came out right - eventually - and everyone loved their meals. The food is like you'd find at any other Thai spot, but they are very friendly here, and it looks beautiful and priced very reasonably. Parking is good; there's a side street and a small parking lot out back, and you never see it empty here as it's a great local gem. They do offer take out too, but it'd never be as pretty as it is on their plates. If you're in the area, or looking for a nice Thai meal that's worth a drive to, then I highly recommend Sweet Tamarind.

I've been coming to Rama Thai for years. It's a favourite for me as far as the food is concerned,…read morebut as far as the service goes, well that's another story. The restaurant isn't huge, and when really busy, it can seem cramped. But they've "modernised" it a little and it's a nice atmosphere. Parking is usually good, as it's on a stretch of Bourke Road where there's only a few other restaurants, and one of them isn't even open at night, so parking has never been an issue. I'd normally order Chicken Curry Puffs, but they only have vegetable ones. So I ordered the Golden Canape, which is deep fried marinated chicken on bread (toast) with a chilli sauce. Let me tell you; these are HEAVENLY. They are SO good. I haven't seen these on any other Thai restaurant menus (and I go to Thai places a lot). They're delicious and I could almost eat them as main meal too, lol. For my main, I ordered the Chicken Fried Rice (of course). This was delicious too and made according to my modification requests. I did find it bad that the waitress didn't know answers to questions about the food on the specials board. That's something staff should be trained in. And the food came out quicker last night than other times, because they weren't quite so busy. But the food is delicious and really tasty and if you don't mind slow service at times, this is a restaurant I highly recommend.

I have been Thailand a lot in the past and my findings on Rama Thai is: The most authentic Thai…read morerestaurant in Melbourne amongst which I have tried more than a dozen. I'd highly recommend it if you love Thai food and craving for it since Rama Thai preserved the authenticity of Thai cuisine by not localising too much. For the entree, I'd recommend Chicken Satay, Co-co prawns or just Rama Entree combo for 6 pcs. Soup: Must get a Tom Yum soup (the original one should be spicy, but you need to order it as spicy if you want it, otherwise they serve non-spicy version by default.) Salad: Calamari Salad and Softshelf crab salad are our favourites, we haven't tried all of them. Thai curry: Rama Thai's curries are the best, any one of them are good depending on your preference. Grill: Rama grill combo is the best if you want varieties of meat grilled. Highly recommend Talay Thai which is a stir-fried seafood combination with vegies but a bit spicy. All dishes need to accompany with some coconut rice! Dessert: Coconut sticky rice ice cream is the best!

I don't love it when people that arrive after you and order after you, receive their meals before you, but with that asside ... I can't fault it here at all. The staff were friendly and did I mention the food was YUM? Will definitely be coming back here again.

I first started going here when it opened in 2007, and since then it has gone from strength to strength, even opening up in a bigger, more central location on Springvale Rd. The food is fantastic, and the prices are really good. I particularly love their satay vegetable stir fry with chicken, and their green chicken curry. Possibly the best thing about this place is that they deliver, which is awesome for those nights you just can't be bothered cooking. And lets face it, sometimes going out to pick food up is almost as much work as cooking something.

They used to be in a really small little pokey place that only seated around 10-12 people. I would normally just pick up takeaway. But now they have moved to a new location around the corner facing Springvale road a couple doors down from the Discount Chemist. Much more modern setting, but the parking is a bit of a pain as you compete with The Glen shoppers for spots. But well worth the effort. My favourite dish is the Chicken Pad Thai. It has lovely light flavours and the chilli oil and crunchy onion condiments just top this off perfectly. It's a big portion, only costs $10 and I have it for two meals!!!! The staff is quiet, but very polite. Great for sit in or takeaway!
