Panna Thai - Melbourne

This place is outstanding! I've now ordered Pad Kee Mau (Spicy with Chicken, Deep Fried Salt and Pepper Tofu, Lemon Pepper Calamari with Sweet Chili Sauce and Poached Chicken Green Curry (Spicy , Green Papaya Som Tam with Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab (Spicy , Pad Thai Chicken, Ginger Sauce Stir Fry. It's all about autheticity and food quality here. Generous serves with fresh vegetables. Low oil. This place has it spot on for the Melbourne palate. I really enjoyed the good quality fresh ingredients in the dishes. They even used sliced chicken breast which is the most expensive cut of chicken. (Most Asian places use pieces of Chicken Maryland.  I loved the Pad Kee Mau, Pad Thai, Lemon Pepper Calamari and Green Curry. The calamari was high quality, tender and well prepared with scoring. The Salt and Pepper Tofu should probably have more Chinese salt and pepper flavouring. I thought it was a bit bland but, nothing some fresh chili won't fix. The Green Curry is full of meat and thick. I loved how all the dishes had their own unique personalities. For example, the Green Papaya salad was sour and spicy, the way it's supposed to be and made no apologies for it. The Green Curry had the right spices with kaffir lime leaf but, the mastery was in making the remaining ingredients smooth nothing was harsh or overpowering in this dish. I loved it. My go to for Thai food in the city. It has been a long time coming to find a holy grail Thai restaurant in Melbourne city area.

Very delicious Thai food with quality matching wines, nice atmosphere and very friendly service. Great place to dine out with friends or family!

Located conveniently on St George's Road, across from Piedimonte's Supermarket with ample parking nearby, this restaurant offers a tranquil atmosphere that immediately transports you to Thailand. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive to our needs. We opted for the Massaman curry and Pad Thai, both bursting with flavor. To top off our meal, we enjoyed the black sticky rice pudding with coconut ice cream, which was absolutely delightful. We highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to come back for more!

Lovely staff. Potato wrapped prawns was an awesome highlight (would order again). Potato anything is always good. Crunchy goodness. Massaman Curry was delicious. Pad Cha Talat came out sizzling and had some spicy heat to it. Solid Thai place, ambiance was casual and relaxed. So happy it was open because we were starving and so many places were on Xmas/holiday break!

Dined here on Wednesday night. Chicken green curry and Tom Kha soup were absolutely delicious. Rest of the menu sounded lovely, can’t wait to go back to try more!
