The food here is quite authentic as the flavours are relatable to the local dishes you will get in Thailand. Service is excellent as Phil and his wife are always friendly and accommodative to our requests. Definitely our go to for Thai food!

Awesome service!
The food was plentiful, attractive and tasty.
We went at lunch-time, so it wasn’t crazy busy, and got to enjoy the personal attention of our dryly humorous host and talented hostess (she is also the main chef).
An all-round, thoroughly enjoyable dining experience, to which my whole party agreed.
I recently had the Spicy Duck here with friends. Amazing!!!! I love duck but it’s hard to get it right. This was perfect. The rest of our table loved all of their meals as well. We had two couples, and two teenagers, and still couldn’t finish all the meals. The meal size is plentiful, the flavours show that this chef is an experienced chef, and the bill was definitely reasonable.
Awesome thai restaurant - fantastic food every time - great and friendly service - cheap and cheerful - love going here :) review long overdue!
This place is by far the best Thai in the area. Always wonderful service and very accommodating. Plus good veggie options. Would highly recommend. Will be going there tonight again 😍
Great local thai place. They really do know their duck. Great steamed dumplings too. Had takeaway here many many times and have never been disappointed. Duck Panang is our favourite, but have tried a fair few dishes and none have been disappointing.
Thai here is better then the other two places near by. The servings are decent sized and i would recommend if you're in the area. The duck fried rice is definitely a favourite of mine.
New owners I think ? We just ate Chicken chilli and brazil stir fry...thanks guys, probably the best Thai takeaway I have had ... the flavours were strong layered with lots of vegetables ... winner!!!!!
Absolutely delicious food and great service. My partner is an extremely fussy eater and will only eat yellow curry when we get Thai and he could speak more highly of the meal. I had the chicken satay sticks and they were delicious.
Lovely place hidden off Ipswich road,very good meals and serving,we had Masaman, Pad Cu and Pad Puk management and staff couldnt help you enough will be back again
So delicious. This little restaurant is a hidden gem worth seeking out. Every dish is unique and so flavoursome and the veges are always perfect and crisp. Totally love the spicy duck, chicken satays and golden parcels. But honestly I have not found anything in the menu I don't enjoy.
revisited the place after could be 7/8 years
surprised Friday night we were the only ones in what is a smallish room/there appeared to be some takeaway happening outside
BYO service 1st class entrees looked good could've been tastier/mains generous plenty veges meat cooked well again taste could've been sharper. good name just needs some serious marketing s'pose gets by on local trade/ big unit area plus day time
we'll try again just won't wait THAT long !!!
we wish 'em luck it's worth a try in the local area if you don't wanna travel
we feel very lucky to have discovered this as our new local Thai. loved the level of spice! the pad Thai was divine, seriously one of the best I've had. generous portions, with plenty of veggies in the stir fry beef. and extremely lovely service to top it off. we will be back again and again!
An absolute gem in downtown Moorooka. Fresh, beautifully presented thai food, full of good home made flavours. We had a mix of vege and meat dishes and the pad thai was a standout with perfectly cooked prawns and just the right amount of crunch and flavour. Honest thai food cooked by a talented chef, fresh quirky fitout, and friendly service all at a very reasonable price. This is a new family owned and run business that ticks all of the boxes, and deserves local support.
A friend introduced me to this place. I never would have thought I would find my favourite Thai restaurant in Moorooka, but it is. The staff seem friendly and genuine, but the food...WOW!!! My family all have their own favourites, mine is the Chicken Laksa (the best I have EVER had anywhere in the world), my teenagers love the Massaman Beef and Pad Thai, while my wife enjoys the Curry Puffs and BBQ Duck. The Grumpy Duck is definitely worth the drive from Hendra. This place really is something special, a great find. In the words of Molly Meldrum...Do yourself a favour, and check it out." Absolutely awesome food at very reasonable prices.
Lovely little restaurant. The food is served in generous portions and is delicious and reasonably priced. The service is always excellent and most people seem to take away so to eat in it's a very quiet and peaceful place to eat. Love the retro music that is always playing, which isn't very authentically Thai, but we love it! The decor isn't the most authentic either, but that is the only negative I can think of.
Grumpy Duck is worth a visit!
Succulent satay, delightful dim sims and perfect pad Thai! What more could you want?
Hot tip: place a phone order for pickup. This is a small business and the owners work the register (and no doubt work in the kitchen too). Uber eats makes enough money - support small business and order direct!
The food was so tasty. Ordered the pad see ew and actually got thick rice noodles; very rare. The yellow duck curry was flavoursome and plenty of duck meat. The staff were humble and friendly. Will definitely eat there again!
Got Thai from here last night. Great friendly service and delicious food😀
Lovely people run this place and the Thai food was exceptional. Unlike a few Thai places that seems to offer just a bowl of steamed vegetables, the dishes we chose had generous amounts of chicken and pork.
Awesome !! I was in Marooka today waiting for my car to be serviced and stumbled across this little restaurant- I am so glad I did !! Amazing food, fast, fresh and super tasty ! Probably one of the best meals I’ve had for a while ! It said spicy and I was apprehensive as generally a menu will be spicy but I’m left feeling disappointed- this did not !! Such an incredible kick of chilli (my mouth was tingling and I was sweating just as it should be !!) I love my food hot/spicy and full of flavour- this dos not disappoint!! Amazing value also, if you’re in the area make sure you grab a meal, the lunch special was only $10 for a huge serving, and not full of rice which I loved !! 9/10 and will be back again whenever I am in the area !! Thanks guys !!!!
Love this place! Everything I've tried so far are so good, but make sure you leave space for their deep fried ice cream!
The best Thai in Moorooka. I'm never disappointed.
I'm very critical when spending my hard earned money however I have no hesitation in purchasing from The Grumpy Duck Thai. I ❤ GDT!!!
