When you decide to decide to eat out with the family for a special occasion the last thing you expect is for food to not be upto standards and that’s what I found at Ploy Thai being that this was my first visit to the restaurant …now I don’t know if the issue was because I went there on a weekday , cause I have been to a few restaurants that make meals better on weekends versus weekdays (different cooks or something) but honestly you should be cooking the same food no matter when
Having been to a fair few Thai restaurants ,I think the atmosphere and ambience was where it should be . We ordered fried wantons and a mixed platter for entree .The fried wantons were fried crisp but the filling seemed like they had put dehydrated meat in there ,tough and hard .. The platter has spring rolls ,curry puff and two satay skewers ..the spring rolls and curry puffs were fine but the meat on the skewers again was tough ,hard and dry . We took their spicy fried rice for mains which really was spice and had flavour but quantity was not great Then came the green curry and coconut rice ..the rice was good but the green curry was a disappointment ..heaps of veggies with not as much meat but the hero of the dish ,the broth was barely there …we had to scrap the dish to get enough broth for the little rice they served
To top it off we were even charged a surcharge after was 55 bucks at this place …have eaten out so many times and have never paid surcharge especially when my bill is as much as 55 bucks
I for one will not visit this restaurant again as there are much much better Thai restaurants out there that take enough pride in their heritage and culture to serve up their food the way it should be with the taste as...
Read moreThis little nondescript Thai restaurant in Werribee surprised me with its wide offerings of mind-blowing dishes. We started with the entry Fried Wonton and they got their first win. Then tea/coffee; this was a bit frustrating! Most of the tea/coffee in the menu was not available. So, we decided the one and only English Breakfast Tea and that was average. The main meals came. Pad Thai Noodle and Khao Pad Rice. They were sensational, authentic and delicious and wiped away our tea-frustration. The food was some of the best food I’ve ever had, not just in Werribee but entire Melbourne. Portions were the perfect amount. Then the desserts; Sticky Rice and Banana Pudding. Hmm good but not the surprize. The surprize was !!! (not gonna tell, you go and find out. The name is on the board as special). WOW ! the flavour was top of the top. Everything was perfection and travelled home really well. The price was a bonus too. We appreciated the sculptures and artefacts from rich Thai heritage on the walls. Restaurant was clean and tidy. Friendly and polite customer service. It was a pleasant experience, and my go to for Thai Food from now on and highly...
Read moreWe have eaten here since the review below and we went last night September the 3rd 2023 for fathers day and sadly our experience was not as good... our chicken satay was over cooked it was very dry and not enjoyable :-( they cost $20 for 2 serves
I ordered the garlic and pepper and the beef was also tough .all other meals were good hot and fresh (last 2 photos) sadly l dont think we will be back to see if things have changed nor will our family members so hopefully someone else will upload another review after trying, the above items we love thai food, and now we are unable to reccomend to anyone :-( unlike my first review
service was friendly and our waitress seemed new at the job but she tried... the restaurant was clean
