Orathai Takeaway — Restaurant in Queensland

On ANZAC Day, we were unsure where to have lunch and found ourselves torn between familiar takeaway options like KFC and trying something new. We decided to take a walk around the area and were pleasantly surprised to find this Thai café open for business.

From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly welcomed by a friendly, smiling staff member whose courteous manner immediately set the tone for a memorable dining experience. It was particularly impressive that the café was operating as usual on a public holiday, offering their full lunch menu.

We ordered the Pad See Ew and the Ginger Stir Fry with pork. When the dishes arrived, we were struck by both the beautiful presentation and the generous portions. Most notably, the flavours were authentic and well-balanced, capturing the essence of traditional Thai cuisine.

The same welcoming staff member was also exceptionally attentive—she thoughtfully brought over a selection of condiments and even explained how each could enhance the dishes, which added a personal and engaging touch to our meal.

Overall, this Thai café exceeded our expectations in every way. The quality of food, service, and hospitality was outstanding. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious and authentic Thai meal, especially when many other venues might be closed on a...

To “make it better” we got a “free” 1.25 litre coke. Nice try at trying to make things right but I would have preferred my $60 back. Will never be ordering from...

If you’re craving truly authentic Thai food, this place is an absolute gem. Every dish is bursting with fresh flavours – rich, aromatic curries, perfectly balanced stir-fries, and the best coconut rice in Cairns. The portions are incredibly generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth (and leftovers for the next day are a bonus!). The ingredients taste fresh, the spice levels are spot-on, and the attention to authentic seasoning really makes each bite something special. Easily the best Thai takeaway I’ve had in a long time – delicious, hearty, and...
