My husband and I had Saturday lunch here. We enjoyed a variety of dishes, and they were all fresh, fragrant and delicious!
The meals were brought out quickly, the waitress was friendly and polite, and we left with full happy bellies.
Thank you for your service and we will be back!

My partner and I just got back from Indonesia, and I’ve been craving authentic flavours ever since. While this isn’t Indonesian, Thai food was high on my list and this place did not disappoint! You know you’ve found the right spot when you see Thai customers exchanging words with the staff in their mother tongue, and a line up out the door when you leave. The food definitely had great flavour. We’ll be back. Yum!

Delicious, delicious, delicious! Well portioned and priced, also BYO. I have been recommending this place since I came here for the first time (friend recommendation). Didn’t take any photos because I was too excited to eat. It’s now my fave Thai restaurant in the area. Will definitely be back. Keep up the great work Nora Thai! ❤️

This is probably the best thai restaurant in the neighborhood in my opinion. Food is decently priced and super amazingly delicious. Their fried chicken batter was very unique in a yummy way so defs worth a try even though it sounds boring..
They have a few branches and I can’t speak for the others, however this one is really small and it’s recommended to book a table even though it’s a super casual setting. They also get A LOT of takeaway calls and are on delivery apps so it can get pretty hectic so come with a little patience. That being said, just take it easy and enjoy every bite!

Visited this place with a colleague for dinner and was pleasantly surprised by the delightful flavours and genuine Thai cuisine. Every aspect was enjoyable, and the service was prompt. The staff were friendly and provided thorough explanations of the dishes.
P.S. I recommend making a reservation in advance as the restaurant has limited seating but is a hidden gem worth visiting.
There is plenty of street parking, which is free after 6 pm from Mon-Fri.

We had the red curry and the ka prow, along with an entrée-sized tom yum vegetable soup. The tom yum was quite sour for our taste, which we weren’t huge fans of, but we still appreciated the generous portion size for an entrée.
The other dishes were tasty—I especially enjoyed the ka prow with beef. The curry was a bit heavily seasoned for my liking, but still flavorful.
The place itself is quite small and compact, so it felt best suited for groups of up to four people.

Visiting from Melbourne, After the baby arrival, my sister really wanted to have pad Thai. I drove from Royal Hobart hospital to moonah only for pad Thai as she heard a lot about it. The drive was worthy. I Ordered Vegan pad Thai with extra chili , crispy spring roll and see ewe with tofu all was hot and exactly I wanted. However I found my Thai green tea drink was very milky. Portion and price is generous. The server who took my order was very helpful too.I will definitely recommend this place.

We had ordered a few different dishes for our dinner, most of the dishes we ordered were authentic southern style foods of Thailand which is not so common in Thai restaurants will have them. If you love something spicy and herby then I would like to recommend this restaurant, they also have a regular Thai dishes such as stir-fry Chinese broccoli and Basil stir-fry. Staff were friendly and willing to help if you were not sure about the dish they can help you with it. Price is affordable with good size of portions. I do recommend them

Now my go to Thai resto! Foods here are really tasty and freshly cooked! I remember the first time I tried some of their specialties, it felt like I am back in Thailand. The staffs are friendly even though there are very busy since customers keep coming. The vibe is so homey and cosy while being near the main street of South Yarra. And love their milk tea! The best!
