A charming little place. I would definitely say that Soi 9 serves the best Thai food in Brisbane. It is a bit pricy but worth it. Portion size is decent. Would highly recommend the tom yum soup. Be a bit cautious about the spice level. Overall, loved the experience and would certainty return.
Adorable concept and décor which extended to the plateware and utensils; it made this Bangkok expatriate happy. Cheerful and eager to please staff. I ordered "chao kuay" herbal jelly noodle drink, which was 100% the way it tastes in Bangkok, and perfect for cooling down in the summer heat. The pipis stir-fried with chilli and a hint of Thai basil were perfect as well - succulent, flavorful, and the spice level we asked for mild was right on. The stir-fried duck with basil is not like anything I have ever eaten in Bangkok in 20 years though - what is with the addition of bamboo shoots as well as carrot slices? I added a photo of this dish which will clarify. And I was sad to discover it was a bit hard to find Thai basil in it, which gives the dish its simple but distinctive flavor. It was medium spicy we requested mild as well but it was yummy enough that we didn't want them to remake it and I also know it can be difficult to gauge the stength of each chilli and it can vary a lot. The duck was plump and juicy though; overall it was yummy but not what I think "phad krapao" is usually like, and we were happy enough with it that we still would want to go back when time permits. The menu offers a wide range of Thai favorites and none as far as I could tell of the weird fake Thai dishes that I see in some other places, thank goodness. Crowded on a Saturday night, so if you are more than 2 people, would do best to reserve to get a table conveniently. Overall, a thumbs up.
The food was so aromatic, tasty, with a great range of spices. The service, advice, and attention to details in relation to our order from our waitress, Pulpit, was exceptional. Pulpit organised and was so efficient and seemed to be everywhere all the time taking care of all the patrons. Did I mention the food/ It was really yummy and delicious, definitely have found my new Thai restaurant.
Nice relaxing restaurant. Good service and tasty food at a fair price. Lunch special is good value.
Delicious Thai foods and Friendly service The price a little hight.
We accidentally ending up at this restaurant. What a great place with lovely staff!! All dishes were so yummy only thing we were really disappointed, fried icecream. But still 5 stars.
Had the vegan green curry and vegan pad Thai. Both were really tasty. They have a $12 lunch special, good value I reckon.
A gem of a place, hidden in plain sight. We had the place to ourselves while nearby restaurants were full, and the food is inarguably better. This is not your standard Aussie Thai takeaway. Huge menu with lots of interesting choices... the flavours took us right back to Thailand!
Dined here last night. We ordered an entree and two mains. The food was very tasty, but I was incredibly ill afterwards. It was all I had eaten yesterday and my symptoms were classic food poisoning, and I've been weak and in bed all day today. I called them today and reported this.
We had dinner here based on the Google reviews. It was a very quiet night. We had the pippis and also the pad thai. The pippis were very nice with good flavour. The pad Thai was also very nice, but made with thin noodles instead of the traditional flat noodles. I think that caused it to be a little heavy and gluggy. Overall, quite good.
