The food is the absolute best Thai I've ever eaten. The service is outstanding. The price is excellent. The only problem is that I live in Brisbane and can only come here when I'm visiting Sydney.
Really good food, excellent service. We had a great time for a friend's birthday - they brought out his dessert with a song and a little present!
The customer service was amazing! The food was super good as well, and overall had a lovely experience. Will 100% come back in the future
I visited Thai Pothong with my husband.We both are well impressed with the ambience.The staff is really awesome they made suggestions about the food.In total it was a great experience.
Highly recommend, Good Food, excellent service, friendly staff. I love the cocktails. Big list of food in the menu gives u lot of choice. Overall Very Good
Thai Pothong is always a winner. The menu offers something for everyone and the quality is always excellent (the garlic snapper is a must!). The staff are friendly and efficient and the vibe is fun.
Very good food and excellent service from the staff. Always around to look after your order. Fantastic place to be with families!! Enjoyed every single minutes of my dinner. Except maybe people were singing happy birthday too loud..like very very loud.
The Thai Pothong is our favourite restaurant. The staff are always friendly and courteous. Ever helpful and kind. The staff are happy and accommodating with requests. Our birthdays are always at the restaurant and there is a joyfulness when singing the birthday song. The food is also excellent as is the decor. Always a joy. Recommended.
Amazing food, great service. It was my birthday & they had balloons at my table, I ordered the special large birthday ice cream dessert to share & about 8 staff members from the restaurant all came up to sing happy birthday & make it a special occasion for me. The entire experience was wonderful from start to finish. Thank you so much!
Gear service. The waiters were always nearby and the food came very quickly. Food was brilliant and they gave us an extra chocolate at the end
I had a great meal with friends visiting from the UK. We recieved excellent service for a table of 12 and the food was great quality.
Lovely atmosphere, all the wait staff were very attentive and friendly. Great selection of food for vegans and meat eaters and didn't wait long for food considering it was a busy Saturday night
Delicious and fresh food with great customer service in Sydney... We enjoyed every bite of food starting from entree to main meal... great environment... will be back soon...
Fabulous food and I’ll definitely go again but oo many birthdays on the one night. Huge restaurant with lots of room and great service. Highly recommended
The food and the service was amazing. Each of us were completely satisfied with our meal and the waitstaff were attentive to our needs. We will surely visit again.
Thai Pothong never fails to deliver. Consistently wonderful, delicious food and great service. BBQ pork and crispy pork belly with chinese broccoli are standouts. Also a great place to celebrate a birthday.
Great service, great food, will come again. The massaman lamm, thai fried rice and panang duck curry are to absolutely amazing, try all of them.
Best Thai food I’ve ever had in Sydney! Superb customer service by all wait staff, no issues whatsoever from beginning to end. Well done That Photong! :)
Don't bring a Thai girlfriend there as this restaurant is for foreigners. Can be noisy in the evening so it's not the best place for a date either. Other than that, the food was good and the prices are reasonable. Love the service and smiles.
Love this place. Great food and service. I have been coming to Thai Pothong for many years and hope to continue to do so as I have always have a great time. The noise levels will vary depending on the time of day you visit. Lunch is a very quiet affair.
Efficient and friendly, quick service, great food and well priced menu with lots of options. Best Thai food in Newtown ! Words words words words
Always great food, always good service. Our go to for reliable, good, fresh, tasty Thai food in Newtown. Drinks at a reasonable price as well.
We have been here several times and this time we brought my parents with us. They loved it as much as we did. Particularly impressed with the service. Staff was extremely friendly and interactive and was also willing to help us with the menu.
Incredible range on their menu, staff are very friendly and the service was really quick! Amazing first experience, I would highly recommend to friends and family.
The food, quality, value and service was great. The only thing that annoyed us was Happy Birthday being sung regularly which became annoying after the first 3 or 4 times.
Thai Pothong is a stalwart in Newtown. Consistently brilliant food, depth of flavour, authentic Thai food. Huge array of dishes for every taste and flavour.
Excellent service, friendly and food always great Fun night and my guests were very happy Highly recommended Very busy on friday night and noisy but its part of the fun
Good all round service and food. Lots of birthdays. A bit noisy. We are regulars. It’s always been reliable and we keep going back for a no fuss meal.
A fabulous evening celebrating a 60th birthday. Warmly welcomed, great table ( with balloons ) - exceptional service ( as always ) and we’ll presented fresh and tasty food. Thank you.
Great food but restaurant was very busy and very noisy on a Wednesday night. The wait staff were efficient and friendly - we will return.
excellent dining venue. The menu is great the service quick and meals are very good quality and always of a high standard regardless of how busy this place gets
Quality service that was polite and friendly. Delicious food that was served with good timing between courses. We will definitely go back to enjoy the hustle and bustle of this well organised and busy restaurant.
We had a beautiful dinner. I’m vegetarian and we all loved the veggie chicken satay. My brother said the duck curry was the best he’s eaten.
A fantastic meal and experience. The service was just excellent - very attentive wait staff. A great range of vegan options. Will go back to try more!
An amazing experience with family. It was my sister’s bday and she absolutely loved the setup and food.. thank you for making her day special... and we got the photos too which were clicked by your staff... they are amazing...
The service was fast and friendly and very attentive. The food was amazing as always and there was no long wait time between the different courses.
Excellent food matched by an a outstanding service. Lots of exquisite well refined flavours which you will surprise you and take you on a culinary journey.
The service here was incredible! It’s no wonder it’s always busy and the food was great. The staff were so attentive and good with kids
Great food and very friendly service. The entrees were amazing and beautifully presented. The mains were delicious especially the Choo Chee Prawns. All staff were welcoming and very attentive
Beautiful ambient restaurant although quite noisy. Food was amazing. Service was good enough for fine dining. Birthday surprise for my adult son. BYO is cheaper and for 6 people food was only $30 a head- such a great Thai experience
We were at Pothong restaurant for the New Year'18 eve! Booked in advance, a couple of weeks before. We enjoyed the atmosphere very much! Food was excellent and well cooked, service was awesome, staff - very hospital and friendly. We also loved a little gift presented to us after the meal. It was our 2nd visit but once you've been there, you will definitely come back again and again!
It was wonderful eating experience, we took our daughter for late lunch, and all of us were extremely happy with delicious food and excellent service. Thanks.
I booked my birthday here just before Christmas. As I entered the restaurant, there were balloons waiting for me and the waiter showed us to our table. I recommend the Pad See Eew - the noodles were so soft (melts in my mouth) compared to any other thai restaurant I've been to. The Thai Milk teas are also very creamy and flavoursome. After we ate, the waiter cut my birthday cake and also added candles and sparklers on top. Whilst they brought the cake out, all the staff sang Happy Birthday and I felt very special. In addition, they also gave me a small gift as a birthday present. Overall, the service of the restaurant exceeded my expectations and I was very glad to celebrate my dinner here. I will definitely be back!
The food was good but not as exceptional we thought it was by reading other reviews. The restaurant is huge and with that crowd quite noisy. Nevertheless a good choice for a quick eat out.
Consistently brilliant fresh superb balance great staff food presentation great noisy fun entertaining. Value for money always - never any problems with requests for additions or varaiations quality awesome and consistent
Arrived early but not a problem. The service was excellent. Always close by but not pushy. The food was tastey &good size serving no problem recommending this restaurant
It was a great family oriented place to go and the service was great will definitely recommend this place and will definitely be going back again. Best thai i have had.
Having been here many times before it never ever fails to impress. Amazing atmosphere, food is incredible and service is always impeccable . It’s busy and bustling and can be moist during busy times. But it just adds to the atmosphere. The BEST Thai restaurant in Sydney.
great, friendly service. food was delicious and came out quickly considering how busy it was. giving a small new years present was a nice touch and much appreciated!
It was an amazing experience and the staff were very attentive and considerate when throwing a birthday dinner. They were sharp and the food was amazing.
