I've eaten at @ThaiTownQV many a time, perfect for large groups where it's difficult to organise exact numbers and chasing people for an RSVP. Walk in, line up, state your party size, the staff communicate via their ear piece, and then you're taken through. A large variety of dishes, order plenty, share, and enjoy the variety.

Crispy pork - smothered in a tasty but slightly too sweet sauce for my liking over pieces of crispy on the outside tender on the inside pork, mixed with the plain steamed rice, this goes down a treat.

Pad se-ew - this is such a fantastic dish. Loose tender wide flat rice noodles with beef are superb.

Roast chicken - love the flavour of the skin with the marinade, tender chicken, the liquidity sauce poured over the chicken and steamed rice, really yum.

Pineapple fried rice with shredded chicken - wow, I've eaten a lot of fried rice but this is superb. Really flavoursome, typically Thai and such an enjoyable dish you just keep coming back for more.

Masaman beef curry (asked for a mains serve) - this hits the spot with the unmistakable flavour that only Masaman curry can bring, chunks of fall apart beef, potatoes that just absorb the curry, smothered over rice this is so yum.

Have been here a few times. Food and service is consistently good. They do offers for a free drink if you do a review hence I saw one about amazing water in a glass lol ! But my son always comes here asking for the pineapple fried rice. He is fussy so it must be good. I’m trying the massaman beef. I make my own in the Thermomix which is always very good. This one here is small and quite good. The atmosphere is great! Service is via qr scan and very good as well!

I came to Thai Town hoping to have a post-Bangkok hangover. It was not the same; the Thai tea was too sweet and watery, and the dry noodles were flavourful but heavy and a bit oily compared to the one I tried in the streets of Bangkok. My partner, on the other hand, had a different say on your tom yum. He wished there was an option to customise his tom yum soup, but regardless, he loved it! In the end, I want to give it another try in the future.

Food is great! Pretty quick service too! The decor and atmosphere is fantastic; feels like you’re eating in a busy street food place in Thailand. Heads up, the level of spicy can pack a punch and I do enjoy spicy food. The desert area / counter at the front is freaking awesome too - the coconut pancakes things are so more-ish. I have dined in a few times but always forgot to take photos. Tonight I got take away as there was a big queue to dine-in; heads up there is usually a queue for good reasons.

Thai Town is vibrant place with great selection of Thai dishes. They have lots of options, their food is delish, feels like authentic Thai food. The papaya salad it’s definitely my favorite.
The staff are also very responsive. Been there twice and it’s always so busy. Maybe make a reservation so you don’t end up waiting.

One of our favourite thai restaurants in Melbourne CBD. There’s always queues, make sure you come early to get table. The food comes very quickly tho. My favourite dish is the salmon salad, always get this every-time I come. It’s sweet tangy and refreshing. Their other thai dishes are delicious too! I come here often with my family and friends and they love it too.

Best flavours! Quick service, and comfortable seating area. Always come during lunch time for their pad see ew, so delicious. Recently tried crispy pork and egg on rice and it was also amazing.
