thai esarn restaurant

this was the first time we ordered food from here, the food is ok, nothing special but nothing terrible either. we ordered fish cakes, stuffed chicken wings, stir fried garlic and pepper chicken, panang curry with chicken and vegetable fried rice, the fish cakes and chicken wings were nice, the garlic and pepper chicken didn’t really have a garlic flavor to it (needs more) and we found some plastic from a broken container. the curry was a bit disappointing, a bit to watery and like something is missing and the fried rice is nice all in all it’s an ok meal.

definitely the place to go for authentic, spicy thai food. new owners since my last visit, sorry to see andrew has left but glad the food is still so good!

drinks
its byo - the best kind (alcohol only)

food
entree - definitely recommend the tasting plate consisting of a very tasty fish cake, money bag, spring roll and a really special stuffed chicken wing
main - we went for a green chicken curry, penang curry with duck meat, larb gai (minced pork with herbs and prices) and a deep dried chilli rice dish we can't remember the name of. all dishes were awesome with the penang curry the stand out for me. the serving sizes are ample and this filled up the two of us (we eat a fair bit though)

highly recommended, in my top 3 thai restaurants in perth

very good food! nice staff!

delicious, fresh food - recommend the tom yum soup and penang curry!!

consistently high quality good value thai food, very flexible for vegetarians... excellent ambience!

excellent place, absolutely delicious with excellent flavours, authentic and well priced. some of the menu options are not available elsewhere and well worth a go. the staff are so lovely, and know their stuff. i've always loved every dish i've had here. the pad thai was great, but so is the satay. i never order fried rice but i got the esarn one with fermented pork and it was sp good, just a touch of sour. yum!

authentic and delicious thai food!. sweet, sour salty and spicy. service is excellent, portions are large and the pricing is very reasonable. very warm and inviting atmosphere. highly recommended!.

4.75 actually. this cosy little restaurant tucked away in bayswater probably has the most authentic thai cooking in perth. whereas other thai restaurants tend in my opinion to sometimes bend towards western tastebuds, esarn thankfully does not. the tom yam gung soup in particular was delicious. the service is just nicely attentive without being intrusive. i would happily go again. recommended

i went there for my friend’s birthday. food are spicy but it is lovely. i cannot eat too spicy foods. all my friends can eat spicy foods. staff are friendly and service is good.

my husband and i went to thai esarn for lunch friday last week for the first time. we were greeted by a friendly waitress who showed us the menus and came back to take out order. we chose an entree of stuffed chicken wings and an entree of fish cakes. i ordered the beef salad for mains and my husband ordered the massaman curry. the wings were excellent! crispy and very morish. the fish cakes were also very good, we always order fish cakes at vietnamese restaurants and these were the same ones we get from them, very tasty. my beef salad had great flavour and spice but the serve was very small and the beef itself was very, very tough. the salad was a tomato quartered and some slices of cucumber with a very nice zesty, spicy dressing. i've never ordered this before so not sure if that's how it is supposed to be. my husband's massaman curry had huge pieces of really tender beef with potato pieces in a beautiful sauce. he loved it 👍overall i was disappointed with my salad, i was still hungry when we left but... i would go back another time and try something else on the menu.

the best thai within at least 50kms imo!! great staff (though never eaten in!) but takeaway is always on the dot, piping hot and flavours that just cannot be reproduced at home.... why would you even try!!! waiting time for phone orders is around 20 minutes, which says to us they are 'on it' as soon as you phone through. without doubt, our favourite go to place for over 10 years! and great that they are open virtually all the days / times now- loyal as labradors to us!!🤗🤗🤗🤗

they are so friendly and helpful. their food is so tasty and full of flavour. i'm a vegan and they always check "no animal products" before making my food. decor is quite old and outdated but doesn't matter when the food is this yummy 😋

subtle flavours that enlighten palette. which once consumed continue variances of flavour allowing underlying fusion of ingredients. such infusion coordinated with perfectly prepared produce equates to an unexpected experience. this enjoyable dance on ones palette is enhanced by enthusiastic, friendly staff. matching a rustic decor made much more unbelievable as situated along perths eastern train line at bayswater.

one of the best tom kha soups in perth. golden money bags are filled with delicious filling & really nice staff too. bit pricey, but worth it.

with a thai dinner planned, we decided to give thai esarn a go, because of it high rating.

and it's rating lives up to the experience. service is friendly, fast and very courteous. the variety of dishes were aplenty to choose from. and the dishes we had, were a delight to the eyes and tastebuds.

a most definite recommendation for this restaurant, and we are planning to come back, very very soon.
