I've been a regular at Thai Pothong for years and this was the first time I've been able to take my nephews, as we wanted to celebrate my eldest nephew's birthday. We all enjoyed the wonderful food and atmosphere, and the birthday boy especially loved the barramundi curry. Thank you Thai Pothong for another wonderful experience.

We had the $33 Banguet, generous portion of mains, friendly staff sang happy birthday to us, gave us a present and lit candles on our ice cream. Today I have received the photos of our dinner by email. I would recommend this restaurant for a family & friends meal to go to any day.

If you are in a hurry dont come to Thai Pothong. We waited 1 hour for our food to arrive. This is a glorified and overrated Thai restsur ant. The food was good but no different from the local joint which cost half the price. I would not be returning in a hurry!

Another great meal, Thai Pothong never disappoints, top class food, friendly service and the usual vibrant buzz on a Friday evening. Always wise to book ahead.
