First time dining here and it was a lovely experience. The atmosphere was nice, cozy, and very welcoming. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better. Our food was served quickly, and everything came out fresh and well presented. I especially loved the noodles—they were full of flavour and perfectly cooked. Overall, a great dining experience and I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Excellent place with so many choice! Including a series of southern Thai dishes, which I don’t see much at other Thai restaurants. Good job! I’ll come back again. ————————————————— That was for the free drink. Usually I’d leave the good review here if the food and experience later are above average(or even average) but here, it was below average. The fruit salad as you can see from the picture, cost $13.9 The crab curry was incredibly spicy and we were coughing and sneezing through the dinner - I’m not saying that’s why it’s bad, we saw the spicy level. What made it a bad dish was how little the meat is (barely any crab meat) and the gravy is toooo salty. The fish - the main reason why we came to dine here, instead, was a bit plaine and unsurprised, consider the price. While I was out of breath by the spiciness, the free drink the waitress promised to give after she checked my review, took like 10mins after I reminded her again (she forgot), and it looked nothing like the picture and taste like cheap syrupy soda. Finally, 3 of us were still hungry and mouths were on fire so we had to add another omelet and 2 sweets. Turned out the ‘Thai omelet’ was soooooo greasy and basically is just oil fried eggs. And the sweets ‘Taro pearl’ was steamingly hot! Who would’ve thought! Hmmm disappointed overall. But the southern Thai menu does look interesting to me so perhaps someday if I pass by I’d still give it a second chance.

It's my first time visiting Melbourne. My friend took me here for lunch. The food taste incredible! Good atmosphere and lovely thai decorations . It's the southern Authentic Thai food where you can have in the Melbourne CBD.

The dishes are much more attractive than what is shown on the menu. They have a very authentic Thai flavor. This fried rice is exactly the same as the one I had in Thailand! It pairs well with cucumber and lime, which is very refreshing. The Thai milk tea is also very tasty. This combination is perfect for someone eating alone. I will definitely come again next time.😛

Incredible Thai Food & Warm Hospitality! Pa Tong Thai is hands down one of the best Thai restaurants in Melbourne! Every dish we ordered was packed with authentic flavours — fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced. The Pad Thai and Green Curry were absolute standouts, and the crispy pork belly was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole dining experience even better. The atmosphere was relaxed yet stylish, making it a great spot for both casual dinners and special nights out. Highly recommend this gem if you're craving real Thai food. Can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu!
