Soul Thai — Restaurant in Waitematā

Food is OK. Not as good as other Thai places in town. I order over the phone. Both times i was told it would be ready in 20 mins. I picked up at exactly 20 mins both times and the food was cold. Thai food is not really that great cold. They had my phone number so maybe they could have called me when it was ready. The food is nicely packaged but expensive. Other less flashy looking places cost around 8 dollars less and are generally far better. When you order a dish you are given three options for spiciness: Kiwi Hot, Thai Hot and extra Thai hot. Extra Thai hot is nowhere near spicy enough for me. In terms of spice this place does not compare to real Thai takeaways. All in all, there is room for improvement but i still ate the food. Better options nearby : Ruangthong Thai (symonds street), Basil thai...

Crispy Chicken Bao’s were just amazing! The pairing of cucumber, coriander, red onion etc was spot on. The siracha and lemongrass mayonnaise topped off the flavour and is to perfection. And, the Spicy Green Papaya with Prawns is also amazing. The tiger prawns just melted in your mouth and were so fresh, the tomatoes sweet and the entire dish of papaya, carrot, peanut, garlic and chilli with the dressing was just perfect. Service over the counter, the entire experience was spot on. If you haven’t been here, you need to as I can honestly not say enough of how wonderful, fresh, mouth watering and eye rolling these dishes are. Keep up the fantastic work Soul Thai. We’ll be back!...

I have been a regular customer of Soul thai from past 1.5 years and they really had amazing thai food on offer. Though my recent experiences has not been great.

We’ve ordered pad thai and fried rice on regular basis but both the dishes lacked seasoning this time including spiciness. Pad thai were just bland noodles and no veges( brocolli, beans, carrots used to be the part of this dish).

The rice that were used in fried rice were really of a bad quality and lacked flavours.

The value for money and the flavour delivered in thai dishes were well...
