Great, high volume turnover Thai restaurant. Perfect for a meal with friends before a night out. Authentic Thai food which is brilliant and VERY cheap. Only problem is grabbing a waitress' attention on the weekend - this place is packed and often has a queue out the door!

Approximate cost: $10

The food is superb and I just love the different types of curries they serve. It can get really crowded and crampy on weekend nites but it's worth the wait.

Good value for money if you are looking for a decent meal without wanting to break the bank.
The Thai food served here is pretty run of the mill, but what you do get, you get loads of it, which makes up for the lack of quality.
The entrees are good, however the mains can end up tasting a bit similar.

Approximate cost: $10.00

We love Thaila Thai - we head over from the other side of town for it, but it's a great place to meet.
The food tastes like the food we ate in Thailand, and the chairs and tables are much the same. They use chicken breast which I'd much prefer, so I'm happy. ]
Cheap, and yummy night out!

The best Thai food in the world... I live for Thaila Thai's chicken satays. I make my husband drive for an hour with our two kids screaming in the car just so I can get my Thaila's fix. In fact when we lived in Sydney for a year I made him bring take-away back on the plane!

The Thai Beef Salad is my favourite dish, it has a really tangy fish sauce over tomato, cucumber and better quality beef than you would expect in an affordable restaurant like this. The Pad Thai is also a must-have. We usually go there with a group of people and the dishes are so big you only need to order about 7-8 dishes for 10 people.

Thaila Thai is one of my all time favorite restaurants. I have been going there for about 10 years, since living nearby when I was at University. The food is great and the kitchen is in full display - you can see piles of cut vegies waiting to be cooked, flaming woks, and bowls of different sauces and spices. I have some dishes that have become pretty much a staple order - chicken satays, green curry with either chicken or beef, the pad thai and the chicken with cashew nut stir fry. The first and last dishes in this list are not to be missed. The chicken satay has an amazing peanut sauce and the chicken and cashew nut stir fry is as the name suggests, plus a lot of lightly cooked so they are still crispy vegetables.

And the value; there is a $12 minimum per head including drinks and sometimes its hard to keep above this. The dishes are large, so you there is really no need to order one per person if you are in a group.

I was introduced to this place by my brother, and later I moved around the corner so it became a regular place for a cheap feed. The menu is not extensive, and you may have to sit on plastic chars, but the food is delicious and the servings are huge.. and they are happy for you to take left overs home.
My favorite dishes are mixed satays, followed by green chicken curry and prawn pad thai.

We were introduced to Thaila Thai by our daughter a few years ago. At first we said why would we want to spend up to an hour sitting in traffic to drive all the way to Brunswick. But after our first experience we were hooked. The interior of the restaurant is pretty average although they have recently opened an upstairs area with more modern chairs and tables.

The chicken satays are the best I've ever had and at $12 for 12 satays you can't complain.

Awesome fresh food in vast quantities. You can't beat the $6 chicken satays. The peanut sauce is to die for and the satay skewers are a very generous size.
