Mixed reviews at this Thai Bar/Restaurant and Phuong Tran says if we never go we will never know! Walking in at 12.30pm the restaurant is half occupied while the tables around the Bar are mostly taken. Staff here are friendly and help us with the Menu. PT orders her Cocktail and we decide on two dishes from their Lunch Specials.
The Passionfruit Mojito needs to be sweetened and it is refreshing. Our lunch arrives after 15 minutes.
* Roasted Pork Belly stir fried with Basil and vegetables is served with steamed rice. Freshly prepared, I like the generous serve of Roast Pork. Rating: 4.5
* Seafood stir fried with Cashews and vegetables is also served with steamed rice. Prawns, Squid and Scallops are reasonably fresh. Rating: 4
We enjoy our lunch at this beautiful Tropical Thai themed restaurant and bar. Thank you guys!
We dined on a Saturday evening and my first impression was the garden area was just beautiful. Highly recommend asking for an outdoor table (there are heaters when it gets a little chilly) as it's lush and very inviting.
We started with the spicy temple wings with tamarind and chilli. These were beautifully cooked, chicken was lovely and juicy and the sauce was super flavourful and spicy! Generous portion and well priced.
My husband was impressed with the range of beers available - the usual Thai suspects, but also some great local craft beers, too.
For mains we chose a mussaman beef curry, kailan pork belly stirfry with steamed rice and roti. Everything was packed full of flavour and really delicious. The beef in the curry was lovely and tender, not too dry as they often are in mussaman curries. I loved everything, it was really delicious.
Service was friendly and quick, and prices are very good. It's even greater value when using the Entertainment Card and we have already recommended Temple Thai to friends and family.
Delicious, will definitely return again.
Came here to celebrate my birthday; the place was easily booked on the day. I sat at the restaurant side which is well-lighted, but the bar side was also nicely decorated with greeneries and string lights. Regardless of the seating position, it was relatively easy to find a staff member and place the order.
Ordered the Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab, Pork Belly Pad Prik Khing, as well as the Red Curry. The Soft Shell Crab was crunchy and easy to bite; a perfect appetizer. The Pad Prik Khing was perfectly cooked and nicely seasoned, with crunchy pork belly that completes the dish. Meanwhile, the Red Curry came out in the pineapple shell with the right amount of creaminess and mild spiciness. The portions were also relatively big compared to the price.
A perfect dinner at Temple Thai & Tuk Tuk Bar. Would definitely come back here in the future!
Hands down best Thai food in Brisbane. Food is always top and the staff are sweet and help. The traditional decor takes you away from busy Park road.
This is probably the best Thai restaurant you can get in Brisbane - not just food, the ambiance, the smell, the setting, decorations, and also beer Chang! - wow...everything. There were a few moments I doubted if I was really back, in that country of smile.
Beautiful ambience. We loved the garden area. It’s got lots of fans which makes you feel cool even on a hot day. Service was great and staff were very attentive. Food was very tasty and there are lots of vegetarian options available. It’s recommended.
Coming with my girlfriend on Sunday at lunch time, tasty prawn fried rice and chicken noodle, the price is reasonable (38.8 dollars) regarding its location. The interior decoration is also well-furnished. Worth to having a try here.
You may think it’s like your average Thai Restaurant, but Temple Thai and Tuk Tuk Bar Milton is anything but!!
I wandered in with 3 friends last Saturday night, and was immediately greeted by the friendly staff and incredible aromas of fresh herbs and spices. The restaurant was busy, (it was almost 7.00 pm). I recommend to book in advance. We managed to snag a table upstairs in the Tuk Tuk Bar while we waited for a table to be ready in the main dining room. “ WoW such lovely ambience ” The Bar has an extensive variety of Beers on Tap and surprisingly not just your average beer . We managed to throw down an Orion Larger from Japan and a Singha Beer from Thailand, and my wife had a very nice Cloudy Apple Cider from the Tap.
When our table was ready, we were seated and were surrounded by beautiful lush green gardens. The amazing staff had already organised a lovely bottle of wine on the table, which we ordered earlier from their extensive wine list.
The menu was perfect, We ordered the soft shell Crab, homemade dim sims and the gluten free larb chicken balls for our appetisers and beef mussaman, wild pepper leaf prawns, duck A’hoy red curry, Crispy pork belly with sweet basil and King prawns with tamarind sauce “Goong Makham” together with coconut infused rice.
When our food arrived, our expectations continued to be exceeded. The fresh flavourful taste of the Duck, Pork, Prawns and Beef was consistently delightful and not to spicy and overpowering and worked together beautifully.
We were observing other diners eating what looked like a lovely dessert which we were tempted to try. A beautiful mango and white sticky rice drizzled with coconut milk. “Absolutely Yummy”
By the end of our dinner we were already planning our next visit. This place is perfect for groups or a casual date night.
A big Thank you to the wonderful professional team at Temple Thai Milton, see you soon.
The food here was fantastic! There were 3 of us who sat down to eat and we found out why this place is so highly recommended.
If you go here I implore you to try the green curry. It is hands down one of the best i have ever had the chance of eating. The musaman beef curry wasn't very far behind.
I would stay away from the non Thai dishes, we also had the sweet and sour pork and while it was tasty it was lacking in most departments when placed against the currys of the night.
Their alcohol menu is large and has some great choices for beer lovers.
The service wasn't awesome but at the same time it wasn't lacking. It felt a bit stale really, not detracting just like they didn't want to be there.
The decor and atmosphere though was something else. It created an awesome ambiance and you didn't feel like you were in Brisbane. Half the reason we enjoyed this place was the setting they have created.
You should definately come check it out, it was well worth it! Enjoy!
I will give full points for the ambience and cocktails. The food was also good. I loves the vegetarian badul fried rice and the vegetarian spring rolls. My friends gave me a surprise party here and I loved this place.
The Tuk Tuk Bar has a good variety of places to sit. You can sit in the tabled restaurant area, up at the bar counter area or in the middle surrounded by plants.
The food was good. It is QR code ordered which holds its convenience but it is hard to flag staff for some help.
The staff was friendly though and overall a good experience.
We were looking for a new spot to celebrate and we found it. We all enjoyed our meals and drinks and the setup of this restaurant is different to any place we’ve ever been before. We chose to be seated in the garden area which on a warm Brisbane evening was very enjoyable. Hope to be back soon.
Fab joint! A really gorgeous setting surrounded by a plethora of stunning vines and tropicals. The staff were friendly and we can't wait to go back when we visit. Quite a gem in Milton.
What a little piece of paradise this place is. Meet some friends there for dinner last night and walked into the most beautiful bar area then through to a beautiful outdoor dinning area (there was an indoor dinning area too) staff were lovely and friendly. Meals were incredible and great value. We will most definitely be back
First time visiting this restaurant. The food was delicious. Loved the Tom Yum soup. Price was pretty reasonable. Service was great. Definitely worth a second visit.
Amazing atmosphere at the restaurant you have your choice of seating areas which is good, very help staff and awesome food. We've always enjoyed our meals at Tuk Tuk Restaurant & Bar.
My partner and I went for a drinking in the afternoon. The beer, garden and beer snacks reminded me a beer garden in Thailand. I did order the snack twice accidentally on the online menu then a mindful chef came out and checked. Thank for the service.
