if your going past pop in and try this ultra fresh takeaway, best I've had in adelaide so far. quick service also
Delicious food with great serving sizes and price.
I would recommend this as a takeaway as the restaurant is a bit noisy and tight. However, worth it for the food!
Amazing food and service. Have to get in quick as always busy. I had a the pad thai and it was one of the best I've ever had. Highly recommended and will be coming back regularly!
Great food and even better service, best Thai food in adelaide! Authentic food made by Thai people, can taste the authenticity in your soul, wonderful palette
Best Thai food in our area. Tasty curries, tangy seafood dishes and amazing soft shell crab. Massamun beef and pad Thai are good.
Has become our local regular Thai takeaway.
This place serves the best Thai food we have had in Adelaide so far. We ordered this curry soft shell crab, a Pad Thai and a Tomyum chicken soup. Great flavours and good serving sizes. Very friendly staff too! It might not look attractive from the outside, but it's definitely a highly recommended restaurant!
Great food , great service & very reasonably priced , have not had a disappointing meal there. Garlic pepper squid is the best in Adelaide. Always busy
Fantastic neighborhood Thai place. This place is always busy because it's always good! Pad see ew is good and so are the garlic pepper prawns.
Great food & service. If you like Thai food I would recomend trying Rena's. For a quick authentic meal its the best Thai food in Adelaide.
It's more casual/takeaway eatery rather than nice restaurant, but food was lovely. Great for a quick meal or takeaway. Well worth a visit or two.
Partner's favourite Thai restaurant. Opened by a Thai, so you can request it to be even spicier, like those usual Thai dishes (some restaurants dishes aren't that spicy even after you requested for more spicy). Also, waitress was friendly and attentive. Gets pretty crowded as it is a small place so either go later or call to reserve.
Amazing Thai cuisine. This place is now our go to Thai eatery, whether it be dine in or takeaway. Rena herself is very friendly and the quality of her ingredients is extremely fresh and authentic. I love how you don't get that thick layer of oil on top of your curries like so many others Thai restaurants. Everything tastes clean and fresh. We ordered the mixed entree's, pad Thai, red chicken curry and beef Massaman curry. All the dishes were amazing. I highly recommend trying Rena's Thai because you will be going back for sure 👍thumb up, worth an eat
This place serves delicious authentic Thai food using fresh ingredients. I love getting take away from here and they are so quick, usually only a 10 minute wait time depending on when you order. Their pad thai is an all time favourite of mine
The second time we have eaten here. Absolutely delicious! Food is fresh, tasty and good serving sizes. It's our new favourite local. We also get take away. Highly recommend.
This is so far from my home so when I finally had the chance to give it a go, I was very excited! Friendly service with good prices, the food was ok. My husband chose a pad Thai (can't go wrong with that!) and I had the crispy chicken. My dish had great flavours and was indeed very crispy, however lacking in a bit of sauce to moisten the dish. Towards the end I felt like I was eating sandpaper, my mouth was so dry. Would love to go again when the chance arises and try something else. Not ready to give up on it yet!
Great, simple, convenient and delicious Thai place. Favourites are the fish cakes and stir fried vegetables with basil (ask for extra chill!$
Always great fresh delicious food. Good service & great prices +++++++++++++++++............................................................................
Renas Thai is the best in Adelaide. The food is authentic - full of flavour. The servings are large and you get value for money. I would recommend booking as the restaurant only fits about 20 - 30 people.
Rena's is one of the tastiest Thai restaurant that we had been too in Adelaide. Love the fact that, although small, the team is warm and hard working in the kitchen. Just went back last night after longing to go for months. Was a little disappointed to see the label of "green curry paste" on the take away boxes. I always thought they made their curries from scratch with fresh ingredients... It's still a lovely place and nice element to the neighborhood.
Very yummy food and quick service.
Deep fried fish with thai spices and herbs!. This thai restaurant located in the eastern suburbs of Adelaide, many people may not know about it. Once you tried it, you gonna love the food there. The deep fried fish was amazing, good combination of all thai herbs. Green curry chicken was good, but not many chicken pieces only curry sauce. We also ordered big serve of steam rice, but it seen like one person portion, so end up ordered two big steam rice. $10 charged for two big serve of steam rice for two people, a bit expensive. Overall, good experience!

Come for the Red Duck Curry, stay for the Phad Thai.... and the soft shell crab...... Good local restaurants in the 'burbs deserve our attention... Renas is a great case in point.
We used to get takeaway from there once a week, now we walk there to sit in the cosy 20 person restaurant. The service is swift and cheerful, the flavours are spicy and fresh.
Try the phad thai, the duck curry, the soft shell crab.... most things on the menu are very good.
If you live in the area, it is definitely worth a visit!
The best Thai I have ever had! It's fresh and flavoursome with a lovely atmosphere of you chose to dine in! 100% recommend
Best Thai in Adelaide. Rena's Thai Kitchen is without a doubt the best Thai restaurant in Adelaide. I've been to many others but keep coming back to Rena's for the most authentic taste.
This place never fails to please. Best Thai food in Adelaide. Fresh, interesting and the changing specials are always a hit. Love the fact it is the food rather than the decor that is the focus.
Very authentic, yummy this food.
Amazing. Best and most authentic pad thai in Adelaide!
Really good. I'm not sure what we did for takeaway before we found Rena's on urbanspoon. Fresh and delicious.
Fresh and Authentic Thai. Was recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint! It was really busy for a small place and food did take a while but it was worth it. Obviously every dish is made with care and pride. Great fresh flavours with great spice. Will be coming back for sure!
BEST THAI PLACE!!!. This place is stunning! the chef the staff and of course the FOOD!
Rena, Mark and the staff are great! Phad thai, stir fry basil, mixed entree and so much more! ALL the food is a must have!
JUST make sure to book!
A bit pricey, but great food and services.
Take away bliss. Only recently discovered the joys that this little kitchen can bring to a take away night.
When my regular nearby Thai take away place put me offside by saying 'pick up in 20 minutes' - which ended with my reading old Womans Weeklys for over an hour in the waiting area on a Saturday night - I thought I would try somewhere new.
That other Thai place did me a big favour - I discovered SA's best Thai restaurant. (that I have tried anyway)
I will be going back again and again.
Recommended - all the noodle dishes and the basil chicken.
Best fresh Thai food. Rena's Thai Kitchen is a regular part of our week since we discovered this little gem a couple of years ago. The word has got out and we now have to book! When they are closed we have tried other Thai restaurants which always confirms our belief that Rena's is the best in the area. Ingredients are super fresh and their generous dishes come packed with vegetables and all the right flavours of true Thai cuisine.
Can Recommend. Saturday evening meal here - the restaurant is quite "cosy" and there was quite a crowd so it was pretty noisy. The service was friendly if a bit slow as they were busy with a large table. It was well worth the wait as the food was very good - fresh and well presented. BYO no problem. Worth a try.
Wow! Fresh, crunchy vegetables, perfectly cooked seafood and generous servings. The money bags are gorgeous. Tiny but cosy, I could eat here every night.
We had dinner at Rena's tonight and the food is fantastic! The basil chicken had a lovely flavour and just perfect for a medium amount of heat. The beef massaman curry is to die for and us always one of our choices when we go there! Rena does a great job in the kitchen and Mark and his team work tirelessly to serve both takeaway and sit down guests! We love it!!
Brilliant Thai. We all agreed this was the best Thai meal we've had anywhere and at anytime! Rena is the mother of a friend of our son, so after he went there and raved about it, it went to the top of our list to try. The restaurant is small and fairly non-descript, located in a shopping precinct in Erindale (eastern foothills of Adelaide), but the low key premises were no reflection on the outstanding food. Faultless food, friendly service and a nice, relaxed atmosphere.
I had the pleasure to eat at Rena's kitchen with my family one night and the food and service were both outstanding. The meals are made fresh by Rena herself and you get the feeling that you are eating in her house because of her lovely hospitality. The seafood salad and padthai were stand outs but everything was great. We even got oven a complimentary bottle of wine because it was my mums birthday. Will definitely go again. Make sure you book ahead as it gets very crowded.
I don't want to write about this restaurant. It is too tasty and yummy and I want to keep this secret in eastern suburbia. Such freshness and flavours aren't found so often. The place's simplicity takes you back to Koh Samui and the lovely Rena and her crew are a constant invitation to a return again again and again.
Genuine Thai. If you've never been to Thailand but have heard about the food, then Rena's is a must. Food in Thailand IS the national identity for me. When done correctly you should be annoying everyone around you with your moans and groans. Just like I've done whilst devouring the Kung Phad Phed (prawns with green pepper, herbs, in red curry) and Traditional Thai chicken with basil. It just transports you to heaven without the need to endure the uncomfortable new Bangkok airport! Can't recommend enough.
Delicious !!. After being let down by our regular mongolian restaraunt. I rang Mark at Rena,s and on short notice he gave us a table for 7 people and saved the day !! The food was outstanding the service impeccable! We all left full and with smiles on our faces knowing we just ate some fresh tasty delicious food. Rena you just inherited some new regulars Thankyou !!!
A truly authentic thai experience that leaves you wanting to discover the entire menu, relaxed atmosphere with amazing prices to match it's nonwonder this place bustles with takeaway traffic throughout dinner service.. This lil' hideaway gem is On par with some of Adelaides best thai restaurants- Rena will surely delight the senses...
Adelaide's best Thai?. It's a big call, but it might just be true. It's fairly small and it doesn't look like much from the outside, but the important stuff - the food - is stunningly good. It's well priced, fresh, and delicious. Check it out.
Renai's Thai. I had the Yum Seafood Salad, it was without a doubt the best thai I've ever had in Adelaide. The prices are reasonable, the premises are quite small so if you want to eat in you should pre-book.
One of the places I frequent when I'm craving Thai food is Rena's Thai kitchen, located on the East side of Adelaide this place is a suburban gem. The pepper soft shell crab is absolutely delicious. Crunchy soft shell crab with pepper seasoning accompanied with vegetables such as coriander and onion make this dish a must order! It also has a generous serving of soft shell crab which is always good to see. The drunken noodles were very well flavoured with a healthy serving of chicken and vegetables were mixed in as well. What made the dish even better for me were the noodles, they were almost like sheets with how wide they were. I personally love wide flat noodles so it definitely was a plus for me. Overall this restaurant warrants returning over and over again, however it can be hard to get a seat sometimes as it is quite small and quite popular. The menu has quite a number of choices and the flavours are great. Definitely give it a try if you feel like Thai food. 4/5
Smallish, casual but not tacky, busy, great food, reasonable prices and lovely people! They have lots of good veges in their dishes! This was my second visit and I'll definitely be back!
Great food, I like that they have a lot of veggies in their curries not just meat and sauce. Good flavours. Basic dine in furniture and vibes, good for a casual meal.
Grabbed some takeaway from this small Thai restaurant the other night and the lady who served me was so lovely, really great customer service. I ordered the veg fried rice, stir fry veg and some spring rolls and they had exceptional authentic flavours, can't wait to go back it was amazing food!
Had the most amazing meal last night. The food, staff and atmosphere was great.Thai food at its best. Will definitely be returning.
Local, authentic, friendly, reliable, cheap, flavourful, generous. All descriptions I would give of my favourite restaurant. The family are friendly and the food is always fantastic. They're rarely quiet but still promptly answer phones and greet takeaway customers with a smile. Rarely takes them more than 10 minutes to cook an order and their portion sizes are generous. I've been going for 3 years now since I moved to the area and I could wax poetic for hours about this place. I've converted all my friends and extended family into fans, and my parents (long-time Thai cuisine fans) now drive 20 mins from their new suburb every week to order.
Outstanding... best Thai in Adelaide. Drive from Blackwood to eat there.
Great value for money Thai food.
Friendly staff
very balanced flavours... and perfect taste... kind people... we got served very quick... ordered green curry n tom yum soup
