Review Noi's Thai Resturant - Lithgow

As a symptom of most multicultural restaurants in regional suburbs, the food strictly caters to Westerners and, as a result, superficially represents Thai cuisine and suffers in being painfully mediocre and overpriced. One out of two Thai restaurants in Lithgow, its spacious setting and healthy atmosphere eased our visit to the town. The service was warm and attentive throughout, they gave us a heads up to order quickly as they said they had a lot of bookings. It seemed like a great sign that the food's quality would align with its booming business. Alas, that was not the case.We ordered a pork pad see ew, sesame chicken and chicken and cashews which were all served promptly to us. A positive note are the large portions of meat and reasonable plate sizing, ensuring that we would not go hungry. However, the vegetables were cut into huge chunks, making it difficult to chew and for the seasoning to seep in. The sesame chicken was forgettable compared to its contemporaries, its only distinction being sesame seeds and a generic sweet soy sauce to conceal the banality of the dish. Fortunately, the chicken and cashew did reinvigorate my interest with a hint of chili and the earthy crunch of cashews. Though the chicken for both dishes were dry and the soupy remnants of sauce didn't help with improving its flavour. The best dish on the table by far was the pad see ew, Noi's diversifying the traditionally sweet, delectable noodles with tender, large pieces of pork and a variety of vegetables including cauliflower and capsicum. While everything is palletable, the food here is neutral and remains stagnant with the fear of not suiting rural tastes. I don't doubt their culinary skill or background but perhaps some Thai excitement and spice could really make a difference in sleepy Lithgow!

A nice restaurant with a friendly service. The waitresses were attentive and talked to us about our experience / holiday in Lithgow. The place is spacious and warm, which was much welcomed during our winter visit. The food is good. We had quite a tasty dinner in which the Thai fried rice and the BBQ pork were standouts. Food was served warm and sharing was made easy for us. There's a couple of issues like the calamari having bits of fried chicken (which might be a bigger thing for people with allergies), and the crispy noodle pad thai tasting more like Malaysian mee goreng. Would recommend for overall value for money.

We had dinner for 9 people delivered from Noi's. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Flavoursome, fresh, well prepared and good value. Highly recommended.

Very friendly and good atmosphere, we can see kids corner is ready for family with kids as well Food is beautiful and big portion and niceeee authentic Thai food styles If you are visiting Lithgow area and looking for Thailand Food ... even if you live in Lithgow area, come and try Noi's Thai restaurant

The food wasn't quite what I was expecting. They offered steamed long grain rice and not jasmine rice. Pad kee mow was watery and had too much gravy. Otherwise, good service.

We came here two weeks ago our family of 5 it was really fantastic food, and good service. The food was really delicious and the vegetarian fried rice with prawns was divine everyone was very happy!

I’m from Sydney and I spent the weekend in a secluded area away from civilisation, so I decided to head into the closest town for dinner which was Lithgow. Tried this Thai place and it was beyond delicious!

The young employee killed my family and cooked them up and served them to me, definitely tasty!

Best satay chicken I have ever eaten. Great service. If I didn’t live in Queensland I would make it a regular place to eat.
