Thai Antique

Suburban Gem! We came here on the recommendation of a friend and we think that this is a really wonderful option for Thai food in Carina. The food is excellent, the service is friendly, the portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. The star of the meal was the fried barramundi topped with a fragrant Thai herb salad. I only gave them 4 out of 5 stars because I didn't think that they used fresh lime juice. They allow you to BYO wine which is a plus!

Very nice Thai restaurant. Didn’t like take away food because they got cold when I arrive home, but Thai antique does really good on take away. Very hot and fresh when I picked the food up. They were still hot when I arrived Capalaba. Taste good. I love the pineapple fried rice and chilli fried fish.

My family and I have gotten food from here a number of times, as well as my best mates family. Always had very good experience. Last night was different. Very different. We ordered big meal, 4 entrees, 5 mains, rice. Taking into account cost, the food was worth, maybe, 1/3 of that. Every single meal was about 2 1/2 stars, not 3. Not sure if there was change in management or new chef, the quality of the food and value for money was certainly not present. I'm not sure what else to say. I'm very reluctant to order again. Shame.

After seeing the enticing pictures in my feed and positive reviews, I decided to order delivery for lunch. I ordered the massaman curry $14.90 with the lamb shank (+ $9). And $8 delivery fee The food was delicious, but with limited veggies and poor presentation I didn't feel it was good value (even taking delivery vs eat the restraunt into account ) .

I got the Chicken Laksa and the Pad Si-Eew and they were so sugary and unpleasant to eat. I know some restaurants add quite a bit of sugar to make savoury dishes taste better but the Pad Si-Eew beef almost tasted candy-like. Also not impressed they packed the noodles in with the Laksa broth as they were a bit overcooked by the time I got home (I got takeaway). The staff seemed pleasant enough and the prices very reasonable but the fact is I didn't finish either dish as it was so unpleasant to eat.

Curry puffs are yum. Cashew chicken was good, honey chicken was good, pad Thai was good but no peanuts :( and lacked that classic pad Thai taste. Coconut rice was perfect. The cashew chicken and pad Thai both had the same kind of stir fried taste. Have gotten take away twice from here, and it was much better the first time. Will return :)
