Excellent service and great quality of food! The fried flat rice noodles were a hit - very fragrant with the addition of green peppercorns. I'm going to become a regular here :)

I tried Fat Boy Thai Kitchen because I found it in the Entertainment Book (which makes me try new places I might not otherwise go to). It's quite small inside, so I'd definitely make a booking as there were a couple of bigger parties seated. There is an upstairs section, but I don't know how big it is up there. One thing I loved was that you couldn't see into the kitchen. I don't love that about restaurants, and was happy not to be able to look in.

The menu doesn't stand out from other Thai restaurants. I got my usual Chicken Curry Puffs and my Chicken Fried Rice. The curry puffs were nice, but not outstanding. The fried rice was good, but also nothing more amazing than elsewhere.

When the entrees came out, the waitress didn't ask who ordered what. She just put things down in front of all of the wrong people. It came out in a good time frame, but that was a little "unprofessional" if I'm going to be picky. The staff were friendly though, and very accommodating when it came to menu modifications. They got it all right and that's a big plus with me.

The only other slight negative was that because the restaurant is quite small, when people wait for their take out orders, they almost stand on top of your table waiting. It's kind of awkward for both them and the diners, but at least some didn't have to wait too long.

Overall, I'd recommend Fat Boy Kitchen if you're in the area. It's a good half hour drive for me, so I wouldn't visit again necessarily unless I was in the area (and parking can be really bad), but it's well priced, reasonable and friendly service, and tasty.

Ordered take away from here and I enjoyed most of the dishes. We got the massamum curry, green curry, pad Thai, roti and spring rolls.

The sauce of the massamum curry was delicious except the beef was super hard to chew and very tough. The green curry was also very tasty and the chicken was cooked nicely.

The roti and peanut sauce was very nice also 🙌🏼

I don't think I have ever seen a restaurant with such a roaring trade in the delivery business before. There was a whole table set aside to put those orders waiting to be picked up, and when one was gone, another took its placed within minutes. This went on the whole time I was dining there. Suffice to say, this led me to anticipate what they had to offer.

When I started digging in, I began to understand why they were so popular. While not mind-blowing in any way, they were undeniably tasty and flavourful. Reasonably priced, and the generous portion sizes add to the appeal.

The sticky pork ribs were in fact very impressive. The meat was tender, and fell of the bone. The sauce possessed not just a deep savoury flavour, but also a mellow caramelised sweetness. This was the best dish of the night.

The Panang curry was a rich and flavourful dish, a tiny bit on the sweet side, and while the roti was nothing to shout about, it was indispensable for mopping up all the delicious curry.

The calamari salad provided a nice balance to the more intense dish, and stimulate our taste buds with its tangy and piquant sauce. Speaking of piquant, my partner and my friend both found the Khee Mao too spicy, but me, I was happy that I didn't have to share. In the end, I got a bit too stuffed from finishing it all though.

Even with the crazy amount of orders, and the place being almost full, it was a very reasonable wait time for our meal. It helps too that they are staffed by 4 very efficient staffs. A very enjoyable dinner, and if you have the Entertainment Book or the EatClub app, dining here is definitely worth your time and money.

Have both dined in and ordered takeaway a few times.
Very authentic, decent price, large portion sizes and friendly staff.
Green curry, golden bags, cashew and chilli jam are a must.

Probably avoid the soft shell crab as takeaway, it got pretty soggy by the time we got home

We came here on a quiet Wednesday night. Staff were friendly and the food came out quickly. The Pad See Ewe was delicious! Coconut rice also yum. Will definitely be back.

Great Thai in a modern, relaxed style and setting. Prompt and friendly but not overly fussy service. One of our favourite locals which has never disappointed.

Iv dined in and gotten takeaway and have not been disappointed with the food. Ordered some Thai fried rice, beef stir fry with cashew and the red curry. They were all delicious! Love the stir fry, it had so much flavour. The service was good. The place is a little small but it gets pretty crowded. Will definitely go back to try more!

Felt like Thai after a film at The Lido and ended up discovering Fat Boy Thai at the far end of Glenferrie Road. A nice interior and friendly greeting and we were promptly seated. There was a steady stream of Uber Eats drivers coming and going.

The menu was quite the usual Thai fare and mains built largely around the idea of selecting protein of choice and then dish of choice.

We chose chicken and corn moneybag dumblings for starters, a prawn pad see ewe and a chicken green curry with rice and roti.

Food was really quick and full of flavour. The green curry spice level was at medium and was fine for me but perhaps at the top of KD’s range so perhaps ask for it to be dialed down a little. We loved the flat noodles and the prawns but noted that we only got 4 prawns with this dish which we paid a premium price for. Not really adequate in my opinion but still a tasty dish.

Roti was delicious as was the Thai milk iced tea drink and KD’s vino.

Overall we enjoyed the taste and service of Fat Boy Thai Kitchen.

The duck curry was great, while the sticky ribs were ok (the meat wasn’t quite falling of the bone). The serving sizes were just right. It’s definitely not the most authentic Thai but still tasty.
