We wanted to check out this thai place we hadn't noticed before on the way to Stir Crazy and had a relatively nice meal here. The pork belly was tender and tasty, the baby octopus was well cooked and the curry puffs nice but overall, the value wasn't great. Portions were on the small side for the price paid, and we had to ask for the waiter to come over a refill our water. Pleasant enough staff but probably not worth coming back.

I'm not a very picky person. However, undoubtedly was the worst thai place I have ever been to. The ambience was pretty decent, but the food was average and very small servings. Perhaps, the worst and inexcusable part was when I found a fly's wing in my pad thai.

Really great authentic thai food, well above the typical westernized thai food. For the entrees which are quite unique, we had the crunchy wrapped, seared scallops with chilli jam dressing, satay chicken and Kaffir lime salmon. All of which were absolutly superb and had such fresh flavours, I also must add the satay were actually quite big contrary to greenwichone's words.

For the main we ordered the Pork belly paloh and the Whole deboned snapper which were both so delicious, and to finish off we ordered the chilli passionfruit sorbet. We couldn't end the night any better.

Great job Kaffir Lime definitely be back within a month!

Expensive($5.50/2 satay) - tiny servings - run-of-the-mill quality. They won't survive another 12 months. Will never return.

We ordered delivery a few days ago. The food was sublime and they even delivered outside their service area. For delivery, these guys are fantastic. The food is tasty and fragrant. I'd recommend them highly.

A fantastic Thai restaurant serving wonderfully prepared food all very fresh with an excellent balance of flavour. Well above average in all respects. Seems to be a hit with the other reviewers also. Well done Kaffir.

Lovely restaurant. Great food service and ambience. Service was good for a busy Saturday evening and the food was tasty, hot and well presented. The main courses were reasonably priced and the portions were reasonable but could have been a bit larger. The desserts were quite expensive for an ice-cream sundae and were a little disappointing. The $2 per person corkage charge was very reasonable. Overall we enjoyed the Kaffir Lime and would recommend it. We will certainly be going back.

Not your average Thai restaurant. Far more than that. The menu is full of nice surprises such as the crispy pork belly or the Panang lamb shanks. Presentation is impeccable, service is friendly and the food exceeds your expectations of a Thai restaurant in the suburbs.

I have been coming to this restaurant for a long time now. The food is excellent and always arrives on time. I was overjoyed to see a restaurant with the same name open in St Ives, right at my doorstep, but do not be fooled! The Willoughby restaurant is the one and only Kaffir Lime Thai Eatery, with no branches anywhere else! This is the only place under such a name where you may experience culinary Thai delights with a modern twist.
