I paid $23 for two servings worth of Pad See Ew as a take away option. I was disappointed that Pad Thai was not listed on the menu, and found the Pad See Ew to have more meat in it than stand out herbs or spices. The menu struck me as indicating this spot is more of a bar than a restaurant, but I guess when you're this close to the beach, that might be more attractive to patrons. I came in around 5 to order but was told the kitchen didn't open until 5:30--however, the staff saved the day by taking my order anyway, as well as my mobile number, and calling me on the dot at 5:30, when my order was ready. I really appreciated their help but ultimately was not blown away by the meal. read more

Very tasty (plenty of chilli!) but quite exxy, particularly with the Sunday surcharge. If you're used to quick and cheap Thai food as found in Sydney or Melbourne (or, well, anywhere!) you'll be in for a bit of a shock - this restaurant clearly caters to the older, well-heeled hippies/city refugees. Its no bad thing, as the setting is lovely and the service very friendly. Loved the duck spring rolls and the soft shell crab in eggnet (just gorgeous, with plenty of fresh herbs). Vegetable curry also got a good review, but the goat curry was too spicy for some of us (I liked it, but I'm a chilli fiend). read more

The more expensive experience of my two nights eating Asian in Byron Bay; Traditional Thai had an older, affluent crowd in a impressive setting. The prices reflected as much and, given that I'm paying in UK sterling against the Aussie $$, I did think it was rather expensive for what you got. The food was very decent though, just not much of it. The green curry was very tasty (although not nearly spicy enough) and the pad thai was one of the better I've had before. We ate up relatively quickly and left; but we'd got there quite late and this was in winter and Byron is much quieter. read more

What a disaster!! Came here with great expectations after multiple positive references and recommendations. Firstly they brought the food out at completely random times, my entree arrived after several other main dishes, pretty well at the same time as my main, which is pretty bad form. Two people in our group ordered a fried rice special of the day and literally could not eat it because it was too salty. The restaurant ended up not charging us for it thankfully. However the two stir fries were also overly salty. The final put-off was that their kitchen seemed to be having an extractor disaster happening and all the smoke & cooking smells were blowing straight into the restaurant in thick clouds. My hair, my brand new dress, my friend's new jacket - all smells like greasy Thai as if we'd spent the day sweating in the kitchen. And to add insult to injury once they took away the inedible food and cleared our table they left us with empty water glasses and no water to quench our thirst after all the excess salt. read more

The place was nice, service was good, food was nice. Good clean food, would go again. 4 stars Highlight was the duck spring rolls, they were excellent. The Thai green chicken curry was excellent and chicken Pad Thai was also good. With 3 small starters to share between two and 2 mains, we had plenty of food. The green curry was a nice peppery/chilli heat, not too much, but gave enough of a buzz to keep you happy. The coconut rice was tasty too. Cocktails were good, and we thought the staff were attentive and cheerful. read more

The more restaurants I look for, the less I think Australians use yelp. Anyways this restaurant is two things: delicious and expensive. The backpacker based staff was very friendly, and the green curry and pad see ew were amazing. Portions weren't overly generous, and for the price I was kind of hoping for more. But then again I'm accustomed to US prices, so everything in this country is expensive. Plus we were in a very touristy town so obviously prices would be ridiculous. I'd still come back if I were to visit Byron again (which I'm in no hurry to do). read more

Seriously disappointing! I too had anticipated a great meal after it being recommended - however, not even a silver lining to share here... All 4 of us were less than impressed with our (take away) meals. The 2 curries (green chicken and beef panang) had separated - so visually was unapealling before we started. Coconut rice was overcooked and clumped together... Rice paper rolls were bland and the crispy duck salad lacked flavour too. Needless to say, the exxy price of the meals only intensified the pain of a bad meal. Unless you're dead set in need of thai, I'd try another restaurant or eat elsewhere while in Byron. read more

Friendly and efficient service. Lovely frangipani drink and duck rolls for starters. Penang curry delicious . Will be back soon

Fantastic!!!!!! Thai green chicken curry, just mouth watering. I had pad see ew BBQ pork and was really tasty. Duck spring rolls were delicious. I recommend to check this out. Price was reasonable and the staff were very lovely. Thanks guys! read more

No the usual takeout Thai place. This was the best Thai we had in Australia, wonderful service and elegant decor. They source locally and everything tasted fresh. A little more spice would be in order to be authentic, but the other flavoers were excellent. read more
