Nam Tok was a little too salty and beef slightly overcooked. Tom yum was sweet, lacking the spiciness and sourness. Best dish is the pork shank. Comes with a sweet spicy chilli sauce. A must try. Reason I gave a 3.5 instead of 3.0. 😊

I am going to sound pretentious, but I admit that if I haven't heard of a Thai restaurant or read a food critic's review of it, I'm prone to discount it as a mediocre (or perhaps just serviceable) local. That's what I did with Ma-Me Thai. I live in the area so decided to give it a go but I walked in with low expectations.
Actually, the food was really quite enjoyable, I couldn't really fault it. The vegetable spring rolls were packed with veg, super crunchy and had a subtle smoky flavour (on account of the fungus?). The pad thai had all the markings of a good one, full of flavour and texture and with lots of chicken as well as tofu. It perhaps just needed a touch more of the sour flavour that you get from the tamarind (didn't appear to be lemon on the plate). It was a very large serve too, so I had to ask them to pack the rest to take away. The same happened with my husband's penang chicken curry, was in a rich, deeply-pigmented and coconutty sauce - you could taste the galangal and the other spices and occasionally you'd get a sliver of kaffir lime leaf, too. It was the kind of curry that if all the meat and vegetables were gone, you'd be inclined to just pour the sauce down your gullet. Our only criticism was that it was really a touch too salty, but we'd definitely still get it again.
Ohhh booo hooo nuggets. You waited more than one minute to be served. Toughen up whingers, I eat here once a week and the food is always good.
