Very, very good. We go there often.
One of my Black Rock goto.
Very polite helpful staff.
Heaps of vegetarian options.
The food is always fresh and they are happy to make dietary changes whenever needed.
Great variety in menu. More Thai options than Japanese but all taste great! Feels a little cramped however, and sometimes a little loud but the food makes up for it!
Do yourself a favour and order the chicken with cashew nuts and homemade sweet chilli sauce, it is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! Obviously freshly cooked and a generous serving.
They have very reasonable lunch menu. l have tried Thai red curry and green curry and they were amazing. They also had Thai noodle and Japanese bento box. I think whatever you order, you never faild.
Clover is always reliably good and has been over multiple years. I've dined on a great range of their selections and never been upset by any.
Officially the best thai basil stir fry and curry puffs me and my partner have ever had. I am now a loyal customer. We didn't even have the remarkable and conquering duck curry this time round.
Strange that I have to write 140 words but here goes.
We began the gyoza, perfectly steamed and uniquely delicate fry to finish off.
This was followed by the almighty thai basil stir fry. Goodness gracious me. The mushrooms. The beef. The broccoli. It is perfection on a plate. If I were Manu from My Kitchen Rules, I would say, give me the recipe for the sauce.
Our night was concluded with vegetarian curry puffs which resulted us ordering the chicken curry puffs takeaway.
It was a journey. It was an experience. It was something else. Hope that's 140 words.
Overall this is great food but can be a bit hit and miss. E.g; The Beef Penang is very tasty but sometimes the beef is really hard and chewy, other times it's very tender, whenever I order it I feel like I'm taking a chance on this.
The roti is fantastic, they've changed this the the past maybe 12 months (?), Now it's always cooked perfectly and nice and chewy. Really good Roti.
Still, very good food and very nice staff, I order there often.
One of my favourite places to go, as it has Japanese and Thai food
We love Clove. It's a local favourate but it's popular and can be crowded and noisy. Service can be slow so settle in for a long night and late in the evening, Chef Tong will come around the tables and have a chat.
The food is predominately authentic thai and some additional Japanese dishes would help but the food is good and generous. We have eaten here several times and haven't had a miss on the menu. We do, however, tend to always order the duck curry and/or roast duck! The 1/2 roast duck is amazing - very generous, beautiful flavours and juicy. We have ordered this as a take-away and one order was sufficient for 2! Great value.
One of my favourite local restaurants. Have been going here once a week since it opened. The food is always flavoursome and delicious. The portion sizes are decent so you can order a few things and share. The service is a bit hit and miss but they try really hard. Its BYO wine and cash only. The green curry and red curry are a must try and the pad thai is a winner with the kids. The place is nothing fancy but its great if you feel like some decent thai thats not over-priced. Definitely give it a go.
Buzzing atmosphere lovely service good food need more vegetarian options but good job drinks came on time good deco
We will come back next time we are in the area
Have eaten here twice in the last fortnight and it's truly great food. First time with a girlfriend and we had s variety of entrees - chicken spring rolls, duck rice paper rolls, satay skewers and gyoza. all delicious. We shared from the specials board a crab fried rice which was the best fried rice I have had in years and the beef pad thai which was equally as good. Returned again tonight with my family and had the same and a chicken massaman and the seafood curry. Massaman good, seafood curry served in a coconut was fantastic. Great staff and service, great prices and all round fantastic food - will be returning regularly
Amazing. We come here every week in summer after swimming. The chef makes me his special jungle curry which is out if this world. Great food
Really good! What a great fusion of flavours. Loved everything about this gem.
Better than expected. Went there with a group, everyone was undecided with what to get so we decided to make a banquet of it. They don't actually have a banquet deal so we just got a couple of most of what was on the menu & spread it out for all to share. I must say that there was stuff I would not have chosen myself but nothing disappointed, everything was delicious. Service was great without being obtrusive.
The best part of all was the bill, I was paying for the whole gang & had to do a double take (I was sure they missed something), I was expecting to pay double of what they charged.
Overall everyone was delighted with the food & will be going there again.
Great food, nothing on the menu disappoints . Lovely staff.
Delicious. I Had the grilled scallops which were cooked beautifully and the whole meal was so delicious I wanted more! Looking at other diners dishes, they looked delicious as well. Definitely worth dining here again.
Best Thai. I'm a regular Thai goer and this is the best out there. Never disappoints! Taste is great. The service not quite up there with the food but always walk out with a smile on my face.
A great fusion of Thai and Japanese. Sashimi entre is good value
Beef Musaman is one of the best in Melbourne/Sydney/Brisbane
Red Duck Curry is superb
Pad See Ewe is also really good.
I also like the staff - especially the delightful manager/owner Tong!
Nothing to write home about. They appear to be trying, but they brought out the same wrong dish three times!
Sunday night and the restaurant was packed. Shows you how good this restaurant is. What a gem. Loved the staff and food. Its now my local.....
Excellent food, Beef Massaman curry was superb, as was the sashimi starter. Fresh and tasty. Good value for money, BYO, and no pressure from the service. Will return here again for sure, a new addition to the no frills no pretension eatery list.
Odd mix of cuisine but it works. We were initially put off by the Thai and Japanese mix of this restaurant. we were going to another place which turned out to be closed, so settled on this one. it turned out to be very good, tasty food, lovely presentation and even a lady boy for the authentic Thai style. the decor is tasteful but the location meant soaking up some very warm sunshine on a mild evening, as its in a very sunny location -- ie. better in winter.
the Japanese curry was okay, sushi was fine and the soft shell crab special was delicious. the coconut rice was nice, (almost a desert sweetness though). that said, the few desserts on offer are excellent -- especially their home-style icecreams in mango, coconut and green tea.
I was hoping for more Japanese food on the menu, but I guess this place caters more to Thai food - about 90% Thai. So not really a Japanese restaurant. However they did have salmon sashimi. Which I tried. AND LOVED!!!! It was fresh, silky, cold and delicious. Make sure you try it if you are there, it was amazing!
Had a really enjoyable date night here- the chef/owner came over and had a quick chat, service was prompt and the food was great! Only problem was the partners dish was way too spicy so make sure you specify how hot you like your food- ie; mild or flamin' hot!
Good curries that can be shared amongst a group of people. Cleanliness is not the best I've seen but the warm atmosphere is sure to keep you coming back
Sashimi. Clover does the best melt-in-your-mouth salmon shashimi. I could eat it every day!
'feel like Thai food tonight? Indeed, Clover Thai in Black Rock. Trust me, it will be worth your while! The food is just fresh and very tasty at an affordable price. Dining at Clover is like hitting 2 birds in one stone - the menu is divided between Thai and Japanese favourites reflecting the cultural backgrounds of the Chef Tong and his wife, Kyoko. My favourites are prawn and vegetable tempura, chicken satay, fresh salmon sashimi, tom yum, Thai-style grilled pork chop, spicy duck stir fry, spicy fried noodles ... and make sure you save some space for dessert! They have those yummy banana rice dumplings (wrapped in banana leaves) served with coconut ice cream or mango ice cream. Clover's friendly staff and excellent service are a bonus.
Clover delivers on quality and friendliness every time. It's the kind of place you can go and just know you'll feel comfortable. The food is excellent, with service that goes above and beyond. When new competition to Clover opens up we try them, but always come back to Clover, because you just can't beat it for quality, price, service and just being able to unwind.
Traditional Thai Dishes, made by Chiang Mai Chef. Stir Fry's are so tasty with genuine Coconut Rice. Great Lunch Menu also & great value at $15.00. . Favourite is the 'Green Curry w Coconut Rice' & below photos, ‘Beef, Basil & Chilli with Vegetables’ . Perfect spice on a Winters day!
Such a friendly restaurant with terrific food.
The food here is beautifully traditional and so well presented. The staff are super friendly and eager to please. Coming here is a pleasantly surprising experience.
Amazing food. Probably best noodles and veg I've had ever! Tofu was amazing and I am fussy about how it should be cooked. Can't wait to go back. Chef is so nice and friendly. So happy I found this place!
Delicious meals at a good price, would certainly come again ! 👍
Amazing service, great value and delicious food! Can’t go past Clover in Black Rock!
If you like waiting staff who are only attentive if you ask them to come over then you will enjoy this place. Laid back, we had a table of 8 and everyone was happy with their meal. The curry puffs were divine.
Amazing food , more over expectations after bloody lockdown. Super delicious steamed barramundi, prawns tempura perfectly cooked, pan fried gyoza just delicious, duck rolls don’t miss them as entree and also seafood curry was also a delight! Came back after a while, a bit sceptical, but even the chef came to our table , took the order and we had an amazing time . Great venue!!! Well done guys! So glad that you respect your costumers and deliver such a quality meals ! Thank you !!!
