Review Thai Sattong Restaurant - Brisbane

One of best Thai in the city. Delicious and fresh. Highly recommend! we tried different entrees and dishes, all were yum! The only thing I could complain about is the staff, you really need to ask for them to come and take your order, otherwise you can be sited forever and nothing happens.

I had the Seafood Pad Cha stir fry (gluten free) yesterday and it was extremely delicious. It packed a good punch of heat with the chilli and the calamari was so soft to chew it was cooked perfectly. Loved it.

I give 4.8 stars A gorgeous little restaurant. Tranquil and comfortable vibe. Delicious and perfect for a saturday night meal. Dine in and be amazed by how peaceful an experience you will have, you won't notice the busy intersection metres from the parking lot after you sit down and take it in. Such generous servings for take away, and very hot and ready for pick-up, quick and easy. They ensure your well fed and happy when your chopsticks are finally sat down. I am so pleased to have a friend introduce me to this beautiful little gem, excellent choice by her. Super friendly staff, they are very welcoming and polite. Staff perform much dedication and care in running the restaurant, with such outstanding meals proving to be heart and soul. Definitely recommend this restaurant to all. I love it.

Went here expecting good food due to 4.7 rating. Very disappointed! Horrible customer service. Cold food served very rudely, no one coming to take our order, no one replacing water or taking dirty dishes. Staff not even listening! Food was very bland and below average. Surely I hope there's better Thai food in Brisbane!

Well cooked and a great atmosphere. Lovely people who care about the food they serve. I joked about wanting tomato sauce on my Asian food and they brought it to me without even a concern.

A Lovely Authentic Thai Restaurant run by brother and sister! Thai Aiyara was simply excellent. Beautifully decorated restaurant with friendly and attentive staffs. Gotta write this review whilst the flavours still linger. Here they serve possibly the best Thai curry I have had since visiting so many Thai restaurants overseas. Fresh ingredients. Good value for money. One of the best places to eat in Brisbane. Would definitely not hesitate to revisit. Recommended !

The food was so good we forgot to take photos... I thought I'd still upload the photos that were taken... Pros: - amazing food! The fried tofu was amazing amazing (double amazing). The fried rice was great! (The rice in the fried rice was great also) - friendly staff - great atmosphere. Indoor and outdoor sitting. - easy to get parking Lots of options Cons: - Can't really think of any. Will definitely come back again. Both to eat the food and to take photos.

We regularly visit this restaurant. Mainly because we think that this is one of the best Thai places I have eaten at in Brisbane!. The price is reasonable! The following are what we have ordered: 🐥home-made Curry Puff ** highly recommended 🐄 🐥Beef Fried rice 🐄 🐥 Basil stir fry Deep-fried whole fish Aiyara Deep-fried whole fish in the garden ** highly recommeded! Oyster omelette Tom Yum ** highly recommended! Dim sim Huge servings with generous amount of meat in each dish. The fish is so fresh.. can literally melt in your mouth. You can also request for Thai-style for every dish you order. The chef can serve for you. The service is friendly and lovely. We have also ordered take away fried rice and received big portion. This place is exceptionally tasty!

We have been here twice for takeaway, wife was just searching for new Thai to try. First time, she ordered the pad Thai, it was great, she really enjoyed it. Not too sweet and light to eat.<br/><br/>Tonight we ordered the $45 dinner pack, we ordered the 4 chicken spring rolls, beef pad Thai, green chicken curry and Thai fried rice.<br/><br/>We enjoyed the meal, everything was on par, but tonight the pad Thai was missing something, maybe not enough sauce when stir frying. Wasn't the same as the previous pad Thai we ordered. But this won't stop us from ordering again.

You have a very very beautiful, charming and brilliant girl to serve us!!! The food is really amazing!! Come here!!!right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely fantastic Thai. Authentic and fresh Thai food without equal in Brisbane. I believe their Pad Thai is one of the nicest I've had the pleasure of trying. Highly recommended.

An excellent place to treat your taste buds. I've never tasted such an authentic thai delicacies in my life l. Thier Pad kee Mao is worth trying and if you have anything in mind speak to the chief Ko who not only puts in a lot of effort but also love in cooking your food<br/>

Have had food from here a number of times and it has always been top quality Thai, quickly prepared for takeaway and it also has a nice outdoor area. Very friendly staff too.

Thai Aiyara is small restaurant but the food's taste is incredible. I was ordered Pad Thai Prawn and Whole fish with salad, It was so good. Whole Barramundi fish is very cheap, just $23.90 , it's the cheapest one that I have ever seen.

My favourite Thai restaurant! Their foods are simply delicious. Especially the Panang Curry, it tastes fabulous! Definitely recommend! Nice customer service!

I love this place! Our local thai shop and its delicious! Fantastic food, lovely service.<br/>Great size of meals. Good for takeaway or dine in.

Amazing Thai food!!! Best in Brisbane. Super friendly service each and every time!!! Everything on the menu is super delicious! A must try restaurant!!!

The food is amazing! Taste better than any Thai restaurant in Brisbane! Definitely recommend to anyone wanting affordable quality food without a long wait time for it to be prepared.

If you are a big fan of Thai food, just go there!!. This is authentic Thai food and the taste is fantastic. All menus are prepared by a wonderful Thai family (Brother & Sister). They are very nice people and the restaurant is nicely decorated. Just 5 minutes from the city. It would be my favorite Thai restaurant.

I grew up in Thailand and this place is 100% authentic - the food is FANTASTIC! Easily the best I've had in Brisbane. Lots of Thai restaurants get lazy with their flavours and everything ends up tasting the same. The two chefs here are masters and take great pride in everything they serve - of course they serve it with the utmost warmth humility and friendliness, in true Thai fashion. The place feels like home, yet the ambience and table settings are still nice enough for a cozy date night. My wife and I love it. Try a whole fish dish (I recommend plaa lui suan - it's pretty spectacular.)

TL;DR: Maybe it is just another good Thai place? That could be a case to be made right there. What I see is something with a whole lot of potential, and that was only from a phone call and some delivery. That is only boosted by some of the tastiest food that is around town, fresh, spicy, and plentiful in quantity. A definite recommendation is given here. <br/><br/>If anything to represent Thai was able to be summed up well, getting the best of what makes the cuisine tick as a whole, how great it is able to be in the least conspicuous of locations, and just why it has become the favoured take-out option, then possibly the pinnacle of those three aspects will go to Thai Aiyara. A double bonus comes in the case of it being owned and operated by the chefs which ensures the quality is able to match up pretty well. Whether or not the locals were able to score with a decent Thai locale, this place ought to rule the roost - it is that good. <br/><br/>Once and again in the calendar year it was time to get ready for the next event from WWE. On the Network, the program was Extreme Rules which meant one certain thing to me; time to fire up the delivery again, and find a good eat while watching the event. No real train of thought this time around, simply was going by my nose and deciding what could look good. It figures that Thai is one that has not let me down yet (spoilers: that is still the case), and before long the order was getting plugged into the app. Only two things were left to do: the first one was to put on some rice a bit before the delivery man was to arrive, and the second and most important was to play the waiting game. <br/><br/>With the whole delivery aspect, on the UberEats side of things there was not much beyond the driver getting it here quickly and efficiently while everything was still hot.  So points to that, they did the job with little delay. The real story is with the actual restaurant itself. <br/><br/>From a lot of experience with getting delivery from multiple platforms, one aspect that can be inferred is the majority of customers usually order it for the day if not right then on the spot. This can be attested to, since ordering some meals several days in advance is a common aspect I do often getting call-ups from the restaurant - sometimes practically immediately. That itself shows attention to detail. <br/><br/>What has also happened with previous endeavours, is that the food has arrived on the day it has was ordered - but instead it was for a few days in advance. It was the case here. If it come to MenuLog or EatNow, the actual restaurant does the delivery; on UberEats and other newer services, a middleman is in charge of bringing the food to the door. That aspect is important with the confusion from the restaurant, one that was easily fixed with a simple phone conversation. <br/><br/>I presume it is a new place, so the man here was possibly learning the ropes a bit. He had prepared the food already on the Friday, but the food was for the Tuesday. This confused him, since no driver came and it is - again - possibly the rarer case orders are done days in advance. Just a bit of discussion and re-arranging the time, and all was good. In no way is this a complaint or critique, since we can all agree it is preferable to the order being forgotten. And to use a further analogy, you don't lose points of an assignment is you submit before the due date. <br/><br/>So as it is clear, the fare being served is Thai. With the menu, it is pretty substantially sized as far as it goes. All the familiar favourites are here in the flesh - the usual curries are here, as are the stir fries, and the noodle dishes. Just choose your choice of meat, and Bob's your uncle. They have the usual round of soups, and salads, plus the range of entrees that is usually expected. An edge is gained with the chef's specials. These are mostly based on seafood, plus a couple of duck ones to boot. Each one of the specials is especially mouth-watering, and this is what possibly make Aiyara just that little bit better. <br/><br/>Because of most of them sounding so good, plus the idea in the back of my head to give a balance of Thai's best for a good analysis, lots of restraint was a necessity. Still, a fair few good items were gotten and it was enough to give this place a good, passing grade. <br/><br/>First off, some starters. From the starters list, some chicken satays and golden bags were both ordered - and these both were tasty, and very hot. Much like a curry puff or a spring roll, the brunt of what can be said about a golden bag is more or less the same each time. They can be a bit on the passe side, and they can also be quite decent. Maybe a small cut above decent is what would be the case here, since for once the filling was apparent without having to read a description. Chicken was certainly used in it, and they made a nice mince mixture that combined water chestnut, onion and prawns that created a light flavour with a strong texture. Wrapped around that was pastry that was pipping hot, and very crispy. <br/><br/>Next after that were the chicken satays. Also a standard, they can do pretty well or they can also be a bit passe. Well, guess how these went. Four fairly substantial sticks came in the pack, and the cut of meat they used was definitely from the thigh, which was tender and well infused with a marinade before grilling. The combination of a nutty satay sauce, and sweet chilli as dippers created a distinct and contrasting flavour base. Also, it got that much better with the meat being easily torn apart. <br/><br/>Among the bigger meals that were gotten, one of the chef's specials included occupies a bizarre place in my mind between starter and main. This was the salt and pepper squid, and it mainly does that due to the amount that was served. Always a good choice, and a classic to behold, since this continues that wonderful streak where it has not been a let down yet. The salt and pepper squid is - yet again - a must from here. The seasoning is heavy in here, in which a pattern of the salt, the pepper, and even a good amount of chopped up chilli, is visible with the naked eye. The batter of the squid was decidedly light, plus the actual meat part was tender and went down the hatch like butter. It was hot, fresh from the fryer, and I could almost imagine how it would be at the actual restaurant. With some garlic, onion and capsicum to compliment it, the popular bar snack gets an astute balance of mix-ins to truly transform it. <br/><br/>Getting onto some main dishes, it was a double banger this time around. Still going on with the chef's special, even if it were not on there a duck dish would be hard to pass up. The duck curry here is based on a red curry paste, with the meat being roasted beforehand. A good mixture of beans and capsicum put in the fresh crunch that was needed, and both the lychee, and the pineapple put some characteristic sweetness into the sauce that helped contrast it to the hotness that got requested. Inside the meat was nice, maybe a little lacking in proportion to the sauce, and it had no flaws; the fat went down like butter, the flesh was tender, and the flavour was dark and rich. The roti that got requested went perfectly with it, in its buttery goodness. Great combination that still manages to do well. <br/><br/>The last one on the list is the pad kee mao, which got ordered with beef. An effective combination, the base is chilli, egg, and basil, with decorations of bamboo shoots, capsicum and onion. The noodles are thick rice ones, which sticks the sauce to it more readily, and the flavour really put in a kick at times. The cuts of beef that were used were generously sized, and the whole lot mixed together well. Simple in execution, but delicious nonetheless. <br/><br/>With the scale that I have often described with how Thai is going, where Thai Aiyara lands is possibly somewhere in the middle and a few notches to the better side of things. In other words, it is close to always that Thai proves itself to be good and reliable and reliable option. Most of the time, it is pretty clear what options you are going to have, in which each one often does the trick. On the other hand, sometimes there is that odd one that goes above - and sometimes beyond - with how good the food is, exceptional ingredients and even tastier that it usually is. In that case, often they extend the options and have more elaborate and exotic dishes to behold. The word to describe it would be consistent. <br/><br/>As it was said, Thai Aiyara finds itself much at the better end on a number of fronts. Aside from the food being both tasty and good quality, the major aspect that helped elevate it was the generous portions. These kept well for several days ahead, which always makes for a good sign. But it was not only that. All the items that were ordered were very good, with no weakling to pick out among them. This is going to fare quite well, and it already is doing so. There is a good reason for that, everything is managed well here. <br/><br/>Final rating: It clinches onto a 4.5.

Best Thai food I’ve had in Brisbane! Their soft shell crab is a stand out. Great atmosphere and service. We had such a great night there and we’ll definite be back!

Hands down best thai food in Brisbane. Good portions and good value for money. The Pad Thai Chicken and Cashew Nut Chicken were on point! Will definitely be going back again!
