Chokdee — Restaurant in Nelson

Update on review tried to order same order as per usual but apparently it is too many requests....? Extremely disappointed especially being in hospital and no resolution even when I suggested to come in a taxi to collect the order that yummi was supposed to deliver and chokdee accepted order then declined it after chokdee offered to fix it or refund from previous review.

Note that nothing was different from other times I've ordered other than takeaway or delivery and that I didn't want a repeat of my order I originally reviewed.

Lost a local customer chokdee and the refund from my previous takeaway order will be accepted. It is recorded on your webpage in previous orders. I will not be back or be supportive and suggest your business to others.

Ordered takeaway rice noodles soup with chicken. Soup had an off taste to it noodles were not cooked properly hard rubbery even when put in soup and then left overnight in soup hoping that noodles would soften. Ordered previously while in hospital as I have limited diet. Really disappointed would like resolved.

No resolution, I will wait for a refund from the takeaway originally reviewed due to given opportunity to make it right to the point of leaving hospital and picking up in a taxi instead...

Nelson is blessed with several Thai restaurants in close proximity to each other in the CBD. And Chokdee is one of the best. It is popular judging by the busy turnout on a Sunday night. Not surprisingly it's the proper Thai cooking that's been the drawcard with traditional favourites like the green curry (best-seller), etc. topping the charts and tantalising both young and mature alike.

Dishes from entrees to stir-fries and curries are richly aromatic and flavourful with kefir leaf, etc. aromas evident. Spiciness is measured on the Thai Richter-scale, so hot does mean Thai-hot and not Kiwi-hot meaning, unless you have an asbestos-tongue stay with mild- or medium-hot. This is a good thing; how often have diners had their meals dumbed-down when a cuisine has had its authenticity compromised for the sake of selling more?

Service is courteous and reasonably fast. Chokdee also does a fair bit of takeout business so expect a steady stream of that trade and time your visit before or after peak hours perhaps? They are also open for lunch until 2.30 pm at very...

A nice Thai restaurants. They cook the food really fast, generous portion, lots of meat, the plate is nicely decorated. Their 'Thai hot' is actually 'Thai medium', and unfortunately, service aren't as good as their food; maybe because I wore a very-very casual clothing - other patrons were at least with smart casual clothing. Took them a long time to take my order, about 5 minutes after I was ready to place mine. Then, they asked how was my meal and whether there was anything wrong/not only about 2 spoons away from finishing my meal - what's the point? what would you do if there was anything wrong anyway? If I complaint, you would easily says: but you finish your meal anyway? Seriously, that question feels like so that you can tick the box. With the price of your meal, it's certain that you also sell the ambiance & experience. So, I was happy with the food, but really-really unhappy with...
