Thai Tables — Restaurant in Melbourne

Firstly, dine-in prices are ridiculously over-inflated compared to take-away prices. Food was alright, but below average compared to other local Thai restaurants. Also a bit lukewarm upon arrival. Restaurant was cold and draughts kept coming through, even though we were sitting in the half of the restaurant where the front door isn't! Waitresses were pretty busy, so we asked the manager (who appeared to be making a cocktail) to either turn up the heating or turn off the split system altogether (as it seemed to be blowing cold air). Male-looking Manager fobbed us off "I'm busy right now", asking us to ask a waitress. Isn't it the Manager's job to relay that request to her staff and delegate? Certainly isn't our problem that she's busy. Totally unprofessional and rude. Ultimately, we asked a waitress, and the split system went off.

I have been to this restaurant many times over the years. Have always loved it. Love the food, love the friendly staff, love the cosy atmosphere.

Have since heard others have had the...

Nice big restaurant situated in the main strip of Bayswater - plenty of seating & good service & decent menu with lots of variety.

The chicken satay skewers were great, very fresh, tender, tasty & packed with satay sauce, defs a winner!

I ordered chicken Pad Thai without nuts, they arrived with nuts 🤦🏻‍♀️ (no biggie, I scraped them off) the dish was very tasteless, it had minimal egg & was full of hard pieces of tofu which I didn’t enjoy, the chicken was ok but not as fresh & tasty as the skewers 🤷🏻‍♀️

My husband had the duck curry which was also just ok, the duck wasn’t overly fresh in taste, however the curry was good.

The restaurant itself is very old & out dated but has a little bit of a Thai feel about it. It was very busy so it must have a good reputation as opposed to the Thai restaurant a few doors up...
