The duck was my favourite 🙆
The meat was well cooked and the plum sauce added a really nice flavour to it. Both beef and chicken were quite good too 🥩🍖
Pre Covid- 19 restrictions- Pochana by Kinn Thai is always super packed so we were lucky to be seated quickly before the Friday night rush. We ordered a Chicken Pad Thai ($16), a Green Curry Chicken ($16) and two rice ($3 x 2) to compliment the dishes. Pad Thai here is always a classic to order because it never disappoints - the best balance of sweetness and savoury.
Overall our experience at Pochana is always super amazing but a warning would be to beat the night rush and be seated before 7pm.
Awesome meal and drinks!
Travelling from Melbourne where we have quite a lot of amazing Thai places, i was keen to try Pochana after hearing some amazing reviews.
I have now been back here twice and loved it each time, service is prompt, drinks are awesome and most importantly the food is yummy!
Second visit: Always appreciate the generous amount and variety of vegetables, as well as the impeccable flavour. Weirdly the sticky rice cake came in a lump wrapped in gladwrap. Seems dodgy but ok...
Amazing, flavoursome food. Got the chilli jam crispy pork stir fry and the green curry. Honestly, all green curries I’ve had taste the same to me so I can’t really comment on that, but I thought the pork belly was excellently cooked - the perfect balance of crunch and softness. The dish was overall nicely balanced out with the broccoli. zucchini, carrots and onion.
Had to wait for about ten minutes for a table on a Friday night. It was absolutely packed.
Love everything about this place & it was buzzing seriously when we dined recently with friends. Authentic Thai food with pizzazz & spice & flavor flavor flavor, just loved it. Started with fish cakes to share they were juicy & came with peanut & sweet chilli. For main I ordered the vegetarian penang curry, lots of chillies, basil & fresh vegetables. They also have amazing cocktails in huge jugs & glasses made for sharing
The satay and pork sticks were fun, very tasty starters, with the mains also being delicious. Authentic flavours, some with welcome twists
Pochana's cocktail and beer selection is more than ample, too, for a good time
Service is super, as is the ambience. If you don't like loud music, ask for a table away from the band/speakers
Stopped by here for dinner with a colleague on a work trip for it was fantastic! Great atmosphere, delicious food and great prices! Well worth the visit!
Beautiful restaurant with heaps of options. Order was really fast even at busy time. Very friendly staff and tidy restaurant. My most favourite Thai restaurant in Brisbane CBD
One of my fav thai joints in Brisbane. Have dined here a few times now and Pochana never fails to disappoint. The menu is slightly different to their predecessor, Kinn Thai. Great for big groups for both lunch and dinner. The lunch menu is great value with a lot of dishes for under $15! We usually get a few selection of dishes and share amongst a group. My favourite dishes include the Papaya salad soft shell crab and BBQ pork ribs.
3.5/5
Once upon a time, as a tragically unadventurous eater, pad thai was my everything. Chasing a nostalgic craving, I revisited this old friend at Pochana in the company of another old friend (who then pinched my chicken pad thai idea - rude!). Couldn’t care less about the authenticity or otherwise, I just know we enjoyed our twinning meals & will return based on this lunchtime interlude. Tardis-proportioned space is quirky, as is the expansive menu; service is perfunctory & fast; there’s well priced separate lunch specials & an energised atmosphere. Nice one.
Have been to this restaurant a few times, consistently serves authentic Thai food. Enjoyed the fish cakes & corn fritters as an entree. Ordered vegetarian green curry for main, good spice hit & fresh flavours
Every where in the world I go, I hunt for good Thai food. And here in Brisbane I'd say I love the Thai food they serve here.
We ordered tomyum soup : Strong explosion of flavours, the sourness and the spicy flavours were simply amazing. The portion of prawns served were quiet generous
Soft shell crabs : the curry that comes along is very different, the burnt onions, the chillies and the taste makes you want to eat more. Loved the foodgasm.
Green curry with beef : I've had better green curries elsewhere, this was sweet and dead. Didn't really enjoy it.
I've still given 5 stars, for the rest of the food and dining experience.
Will try again soon
Food was very very good..spicy and authentic with good quality ingredient. Food come out fast as well. Minus 1 star because waitstaff don't really care and the loud hip hop music.
One of my wife and I favorite Thai restaurants in the city. The prices are great for the quality. Panaeng Curry is creamy and rich with flavor. Pad Thai is delicious.
Love love love this Thai place ...been their for lunch , dinner special days never ever have been disappointed....staff is friendly and helpful. Food is amazing serving size can be better 😂😂 but everything on the menu is super tasty....
Quick service , always full, people have a great time here for sure...decor is good..

Super tasty Thai! I only had the chicken pad see ew but can't wait to come back and try other things on the menu. The pad see ew was full of flavour and love how lemon was infused with the sauce. The chef knows what works!
Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Tasty food. Decent portion sizes for price.
