The portions are definitely a good size, and the cost is low. I got the entree curry puffs which were AMAZING. They were so much better than the regular ones you usually find because instead of potato they use kumara, making it so much sweeter! The Pad Thai came with a large portion and also rather sweet , but definitely one of the best if not the best Pad Thai I've had! I absolutely love this place, and will definitely be coming back!

Anyone who knows, knows and has their own favourites but the Japanese is excellent. The Malaysian/Indonesian mi goreng is so good I have it almost every week.

I've found the food to be consistently good, better than some Thai restaurants I've been to. And the handy location in Northcote so close to the bridge makes it easy to stop off on the way home from work. I would say get your meal takeaway as the surroundings at FoodWorld are a bit on the shabby side. Chicken and cashew nuts is a definite fav with the mix of veges including kumara and broccoli bits being extra delicious. This place has also now got an online ordering system and offers delivery. I haven't tried it yet as I'm too impatient but Thai delivery sounds like a genius idea to me.

There is a big emphasis on quality stores and restaurants and this is exactly that. I had been told about Thai Takapuna for quite awhile before I made it there, and the night we ended up going was a last minute decision. A decision I was glad we'd made. It was casual and welcoming, and the staff were just the same. The decor was great in that kind of weird, tacky, funny but authentic Thai way. The meals are really well priced and we ended up getting a bunch of dishes to share. All were flavourful and rich with great spices. Being BYO and in the middle of Taka, it's a good option to start the night off and head out. The only thing I would complain about was that there was a tv screen showing a medical program (??!!) Not something you want to watch while eating.

This is the closest Thai restaurant to my house but it is not the one I come to most. I think the…read morequality of this food here is slightly (and only slightly) less than elsewhere. I still come here often and dine in with my friends or get takeaway. Last week I got a takeaway chicken Pad Thai that confirmed my suspicions about the food here. It was still quite yummy and the portion was large but it didn't have that wow factor or the mouth watering superiority I always crave. I tasted my friend's garlic chicken dish and thought that was pretty good. So maybe it was a bad night for the old Pad Thai.. who knows. I'm not going to black list this place just yet. I will give it another go, after all it is local and it is affordable.

I live locally (Matakana) & have literally not heard or seen a bad review anywhere. The food is delicious, I get the maddest cravings for Thai Food & it always hits my expectations. They also offer lunch boxes for $12.00 which my tradie friends LOOOVE. I'm honoured to write the first review for Jin Jin on Yelp! I can't wait to see what everyone else thinks.

Him: No, we always have burritos. How about Thai? Me: Meh, can do. I don't mind. Him: Well, I don't mind either so you pick somewhere Me: Burritos! Him: No, we always have burritos... It then goes on for about fifteen minutes until we actually decide on something-- usually the restaurant we happen to be standing closest to. So you can imagine our elation when one day we came across the International Food Court tucked away underneath Queen Street (it's down the stairs just Opposite Cotton On) that houses around six little eateries that provide Indian, Chinese, Brazilian/Middle Eastern (aka delicious burritos and kebabs) and Japanese. In fairness, thus far I've only eaten in Pad Thai and the Brazilian place but they are both amazing. The food tastes really authentic and it's so cheap. A Red or Green curry with Jasmine rice will only set you back $10 and the burritos with rice and sides only a dollar more. Plus, due to the nature of the place, you can order from different kiosks and sit on the same table. Everybody wins.

I'm a big fan of these places mainly because there are so many different types of cuisines to…read morechoose from and the food is all very affordable. So far I have tried the Chinese and Thai food although now I am interested in trying the Brazilian food since I have seen quite a few people order from there. What I really like about the food court is if you have a group of people with you everybody can choose the kind of food they want but still everybody can sit at the same table.
