chok chai thai restaurant

hidden gem in otahuhu with super friendly service. i ordered the duck pad thai and was surprised by how delicious it was. very generous serving size.

will be back here for more classic thai dishes.

discovered this byo, awesome value, generous portions thai restaurant in otahuhu. the mains range from $11 - $15. authentic thai flavours, friendly staff and perfect for a midweek dining out option. we're definately coming back here again

very tasty and authentic food with lovely staff. setting is quaint and comfortable. their thai green curry was just gorgeous! and so is the pork larb.

went here based on google reviews today. absolutely delicious and flavourful food and great service too. highly recommend the mango curry. definitely will be back.

tasty, authentic food with quick and friendly service. well priced with big portions. this place has quickly become a favourite of mine and i will continue to visit!!

loved it. so authentic. great value for price servings are huge. their spring rolls are hand made and taste so fresh. will definitely be back for more, so glad to have stumbled across this lovely place.

tried this place for the first time tonight. staff were super friendly. we ordered takeaway - they forgot to put in our chicken satay, went back and told them, they whipped it up in 5 minutes and were very apologetic about it.

the chicken satay was not a taker with me - it was way too sweet - couldn't even finish it - and i was starving and usually demolish everything! 1/10

the ginger lemon chicken was semi-good, not great enough for me to want it again from here though 5/10

my hubby enjoyed his larb but said it was slightly dry. 7/10

overall i don't think we personally would go back there again but in saying that the staff are great and lovely!

i think we'll stick to our favourite thai take-aways out west in massey, it's worth the long drive from otahuhu just to get it in my opinion!).

fraud place charge you wrong prices
they have put different prices on zomato but charge you differently when you there. the fish cakes were awful and stinky

this was certainly surprising, a small restaurent in otahuhu offering such good food. we had tom yum prawn soup and it was divine. a good hearty soup wirh plenty of prawns. would definately go again!

food - 3.5
price - 5.0
staff - 5.0
ambience - 3.0

i tried their famous duck pad thai. it was okay, but was a bit underwhelmed that it did not live up to my expectations. their seafood tom yum did not have much seafood and soup was bland. curry puffs were yummy - so yummy that i did not mind burning my tongue from the filling. for everything that we ordered, we only paid less than 50 dollars.

what they lacked in taste, they surely made up in service. the manager and all the wait staff were friendly and accommodating. the manager even kept an eye on my naughty boy while wife and i were eating.

this is now one of our go-to restos of we just want a cheap eat and be spared from washing dishes.

love the food and service very good good been here so many times recommend the chilli lamb or green chicken curry. deep fried prawns are good too.

you want thai food? you get thai food. had spicy panang curry and it was good. would love to try the rest of the menu so definitely would come back if i need me some thai curry. the serving portions definitely filled this brown boy up 😊

we came here based on zomato reviews and were greeted by very friendly staff. a caucasian guy, whom i believe is the owner, greeted us and served us water almost immediately so that's a great start!

we ordered duck pad thai, mixed entree, and panang chicken curry.

duck pad thai was not very good. the noodles are a little tough and chewy, and pretty sweet. however the duck was quite tender. would be better if the noodles are cooked a little longer so they are softer. less sweet sauce would be nice too.

in the mixed entree, the chicken satay sauce was pretty nice (but on the sweet side too) but the chicken satay meat was tough and chewy - a pity. the curry puff was average. the fish cakes are good, the spring rolls are crispy and full of fillings so those are good too.

the panang curry was overpowered with coconut milk although the flavour really grew on us as we ate. we requested for thai spicy level but it came out not spicy at all. the waitress gave us chilli sauce as she served the curry, saying that the curry is not spicy and that we can add the chilli as we eat. the chilli sauce was great!

overall i feel that their dishes tend to be on the sweet side, probably something that the locals would like? i personally find it too sweet and not enough balance between sweet and savoury. the portions are generous and the service was really nice. i give it a 3.5 because i really like the people there. i feel that they take pride in their restaurant, as can be seen from the decorations, menu, table number cards, and even their toilet is kept very clean. i like a place filled with love and pride and i do honestly think this restaurant has it. when i asked for warm water as it's cold outside, i was given a pot of hot water with lovely asian designed cups. these tiny details make an average place potentially good! i also like how they make the effort to have a photo for each dish on their menu. really really impressed with the amt of effort they put into this place.

it'd be lovely to see some changes to the taste of the food and i wouldn't hesitate to go back and support them!

authentic thai food. everything was delicious and the portions are a very decent size. i would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

had always driven past and out of curiosity decided to give this place a go. restaurant is very clean and inviting. i love the decor, feels very homely and gives the place personality. the staff have got to be the most hospitable attentive staff i have ever met...hence the high rating. i ordered the beef salad. it was very tasty and generous in portion size however, i had too much onion in it and there was only carrot and onion. usually thought salad comes with a lot of lettuce or greens. the beef was fresh and tender. i usually try to finish all my food when we go out to restaurants..i don't like wasting food but because of the onion i didn't finish my meal. my husband ordered the lemon chicken, he was happy with the portion size and the freshness of his meal but a bit let down as he could not really taste the lemon. this place is really nice, it would be a 5 but we were a bit let down with the taste of our meals. maybe next time we will try the green curry, so will be back to give this place another chance.
