Ok so I gave this place top ratings b4 as I've been going here for years but to my dismay I am upset to say that a order I had a while back was not cooked properly and was home delivered, so I rang to let them know, then I had to throw away $40 worth of food, I was told I would get my dishes for free next time chicken cashew and satay chicken skewers, I was quite ill after that so I did not order from there for a while.
Then come the time I felt like it again so I rang and ordered it also explaining what had happened last time, I was then told only 1 dish was gonna be replaced for free despite me having to throw away all of it last time. So I thought ok then I have only been a great customer to this place for years and this is how I am getting treated so then I paid for the rest and had it delivered.
I was so mad when it got here, the cashew chicken looked like bits that had been thrown in from the chicken's body parts it was in no way the yummy breast bits you usually get. I was furious it was like I was being punished for actually being honest and reporting the issue last time which is quite dangerous having chicken not cooked properly.
I was extremely upset and rang again, I then advised them what has happened and said I will not be coming here again and that was last straw I told them I will no longer be getting their food again. Serious disappointment and no longer recommend what I always thought was great food, I am now disgusted by it ..
We decided to try this place a month ago for a dinner birthday party. Very disappointed at the portion sizes. We ordered about 15 dishes to feed 10 adults and it still wasn't enough to fill you up. A bit pricey for what you get. Food is pretty average. Not exactly the Thai experience we were looking for.
Please note: You will probably need to order at least 2 main course dishes to be satisfied!
I found the pad thai average and the pork ribs was average also. I prefer the pork ribs you get at yum cha. Nothing special here but at the same time not the worst food around either
Have been a customer for a few years now.Until recently my family have enjoyed going there for a casual dinner but the last few visits have been very disappointing with the tables been dirty & service no where near as good as it used to be!
Don't feel like dining there again because of these issues & feel very dissappointed with the decline of cleaniness & service. Even some clean placemats & cutlery would make it far more inviting!!!
Disappointed X regular
I have been going to Thai Banquet for many years. The service is ok, not the greatest as some of the waiters cannot speak good english. The restaurant itself is not so fantastic, but the food is another story, I think the food is very tasty. I love the pork spare ribs (entree serving) they are marinated in garlic and spices and served with a chilli sauce, they are so delicious served with boiled rice (my favourite). Also check out the Tom Yum soup.
We use to be a regular here till we gave up on this restaurant and found better else where. The Salads are okay though the flavours are not balanced well enough. The meat dishes are always overcooked & the Pad kee mao is below average. Overall... Not great for authentic thai taste lovers like myself. Tip: Check the bill & change given.
Never had a problem with the food. The Tom Yam and Tom Kar soups are always superb. Cutlery can be dodgy at times but adds authenticity to the place. English is a problem for some of the wait staff.
Thai people do not use knives and its general knowledge that with most asian places, the cutlery is dirty. I frequent Thai Banquet and having been through Thailand I find it authentic and well priced. Do not let bad picky reviews put you off.
