I dined in here in Jan and the food here is very tasty and we loved everything but the serving sizes and amount of meat is way too small. I will be back when it's better value for money.

Cost and enjoyable Thai restaurant. Authentic dishes and caring service. Book early to get a table or takeout. Recommended for a small group as tables are usually for 4 . Our local Thai.

Very homely and cute Thai restaurants on the street of Maylands. We had the Exotic seafood in red curry with Jasmine rice. The quantity was great and value for money. They also serve Jasmine tea. The staff is polite.

I’ve been coming here for years hands down the best Thai food NOR. Delivery is 2.50 what more could you ask for? The chicken cashew nuts and the curries are to die for.

A quiet night in and so we decided to order in. Don’t let the images distract you. This is good, simple and tasty Thai. Friendly, helpful and hospitable receptionist. We ordered Pad Thai vegetarian, stuffed chicken wings and a chicken kapow with the only serve of rice possible (for $2.50 why not). It was hot on time and delicious. The wings (2) for $6 were crispy golden with a rare balance of herbs , veg and meat. The not on the menu vego Pad Thai was tasty greens and mixed veg packed with perfect amount of lubrication coating the noodles. As for the Kapow. Don’t expect a hot and spicy dish. This was a soy based tasty jus. Plenty of perfectly cooked chicken pieces with two large pieces of broccoli and other mixed veg. All for $43. Yes worth repeating. Only improvement I’d hoe for would be the inclusion of napkins and eco cutlery.

This is a very small restaurant with wonderful Thai food that has never disappointed me. The staff are great and they go out of their way to help you. The price was reasonable with two people having two courses each, entrees were Satay Chicken x 4 sticks and a Combo which was a sample of 4 diferent items, mains were Tom Ka Curry, Masaman Curry and it came in at $60. Definately have no hesitation in recommending Ploy Thai.

I have never eaten at the Ploy Thai, but often get takeout from there.  The red duck curry is to die for... the meat is so tender and the sweetness of the lychee and pineapple makes the whole dish pop. I also love their pad thai - quite authentic and thoroughly delicious.

Love the food and the service. We had the fish cake fir starter (so good) and for mains the duck red curry w lychee, pineapple tomato and coconut milk, vegetarian stirfry veggies and thai beef salad. He found the red curry a bit too sweet but i thought it was perfect ( so clearly a personal taste issue). Both the curry and the salad were very generous w the meat. We also got 2x rice which was basically a "bottomless" serve . They were extremely accommodating and gave us our favorite table when we called to book. Recommend you book though as is tiny restaurant and very popular! All together incl corkage came to $56.

The best thai I've had in a long time! Pure amazingness. Pad Chicken - so good and fresh and zesty and nutty and yummy. This place is very generous ingredient wise and my dish was packed with cashews. Such a lovely texture against the soft noodles. Also tried the Vegetarian Green Curry, it was creamy, slightly spicy and full of fresh veg.

Small but enticing little restaurant. The food was simply delicious, easily taken number one spot on my list for Thai restaurants in Perth. Friendly staff, reasonable prices and good sized meals, with "free refills" of rice. They have many healthy/vegan options, veggie curries are top notch. 9/11, fit for a president.

There is a reason why this is the best rated restaurant in Maylands. It's great !! Small, quirky but offers great food at real value. It's BYO but if you forget then there is a BWS a minutes walk ! Pity they don't open for lunch as it's a local to my work.

Last week I spent 5 minutes on the phone trying to order half a serving of rice with my red curry duck. I was willing to pay the full $2.50, but their servings are too large for me and I just didn't want to waste a bunch of rice. We couldn't negotiate a rice treaty on this occasion, so there's still half a tub of rice in my fridge if anyone wants it. That has nothing to do with my rating, I just thought it was a fun anecdote.

I recently took my partner here for his birthday dinner after a friend had shown me this place a couple of months back. Both visits were outstanding. The food is incredible, stand out dishes so far is the red curry duck and the choo chee prawns. The service is excellent, very attentive and humble waitstaff. I would recommend dining in with 4 or more people as you can try more dishes and usually nothing goes to waste but it's also a wonderful setting for 2 people and we got through most of our 3 dishes. Definitely don't overlook this place, it's a hidden gem!

A hidden gem!. Went here for dinner a few weeks ago, it's only a small place with a few tables. The tables themselves weren't full but what caught my eye was the huge number of take away orders being collected. I just knew the food would be good. I definitely wasn't disaopointed. The red curry duck and thai fried rice were an absolute highlight. Good serving sizes at a very reasonable price. The staff were absolutely wonderful too, very friendly and humbled by our feedback. Thanks for the great food! I can see why this place is so popular! :)

Delicous! This little place is a hidden gem! Ive lived in Maylands for 4 years & this is the first time Ive been. We went on a Wednesday night & there was only two empty tables - however its a tiny restaurant so best to book. They also do takeaways. We had satay chicken, choochee prawns, massaman curry & rice for $47. We even had leftovers that we could take home! The service was fantastic, the flavour of the food was perfection, you can BYO with no corkage fee. Cant wait to go again!!!

Inexpensive, tasty food. Went with my family for a birthday dinner last Sunday night.
Food was nice and service was friendly. The restaurant is cosy - I think it would seat about 20-25 people. Warm decor.
We had stuffed chicken wings for entree. Chicken pad ka pow, red duck curry, lamb green curry, garlic prawns, tamarind prawns, pad thai and two thai friend rice. Everything was tasty - I liked the pad ka pow best - but the prawn dish servings were a bit small (7 pieces each). However, the number of dishes was enough to fill us (8 adults). They do not serve dessert there but we had brought a birthday cake along.
The bill came to $150.
I would go again to Ploy Thai.

Never fails to soothe and satisfy :) Recommend the Tom Yum Goong, which goes well with plain jasmine rice. The beef salad and green curry with lamb or chicken would be a great follow on. We've never eaten at the restaurant and are happy that they do home deliveries in the area in good time and always with a smile. Love them!

Worth leaving home for. Had dinner here last night in the tiny (only has about 10 or so tables?), pretty, real cutlery and pretty plated Thai - happy on all counts.
We had red chicken curry (perfect, authentic), Maasamam (extremely good, strip beef though not chunks for some reason), Thai style rice (excellent, generous portion), and stir fried veggies (generous portion, in lovely Thai style sauce).
Now I usually order veggies because I try not to eat fried rice but this was too good looking to not have, and it was worth the calories and carbs - plump, authentic, flavoursome rice. All the mains were spicy & good, with a good meat to sauce ratio.
A telling sign - and compliment to the chef - was that the portions were larger than I remembered, and we got them to package up the remains to take home - even the now meat-free Maasamam which we had plundered of its protein- because the sauce was that good!
It cost $70 (c'mon, it is Thai), and was doing a roaring takeaway trade but it was fun to eat-in.
This is worth a drive - GO.

We got a take away from here - pad Thai and massaman chicken curry with steamed rice. Not the best pad Thai we've tasted as we tend to compare to pad Thai we ate in Thailand, but not a bad effort. The curry was delicious, but I'd have loved some vegetables in it as the richness of the chicken, peanuts, potatoes and a spicy coconut creamy sauce needs to broken up bit. Overall we were happy and will order again.

3 Dishes=Great 1 Dish=Fail. Dined in last night with a group of four. Pad Ka Pow Chicken and Seafood were very nice - warning that its quite strong chilli based, Pad Sweet and Sour Chicken was flavoursome too and that would be something I never ever order. I ordered the fail dish though and this is something that has never failed me but the Masaman Curry Beef was terrible. Not only did it take another 15 minutes after everything on the table came out but when it did the potatoes were just cooked and the beef was so chewy and dry - No one wanted to go in for seconds. The other dishes saved this vote. cheaper than most but you can tell with some dishes $15 vs $25 most other thai is a good option from time to time.

Had a lovely dinner with the girls. An entree, three mains and fried rice was just enough for the four of us. As others have raved, the duck red curry is yummo, and we tried a chicken curry and the beef in oyster which weren't something you'd write home about (or blog about?) but nice all the same. The restaurant is only small and they do a roaring takeaway trade. Would be cramped with little ones in tow!

Ploy Thai. This is a small, uncomplicated and intimate setting, and on this level alone it works well against its competitors. The service has always been congenial.
It has become a Maylands staple with a solid repeat customer base. Of late i'd reccommend reserving as i've seen people turned away all too often.
Fav dishes without a hesitation are the Thai basil chicken and stuffed chicken wings. It is a fairly standard Thai menu i.e. red, massaman and green curries, chicken skewers, etc.
They have built a good consistent reputation for food, service and ambience.

Ploy Thai has been part of the Eighth Avenue, Maylands scenery for a while now. It became a favourite of many locals as soon as the owners made the move from their previous home in Subiaco and have been pulling consistent crowds ever since. It’s a fairly inconspicuous restaurant, melding in with the other cafes, picture framing store, fish and chip shop and the rest of the random collection along that strip. It is quite small inside, which means you have to arrive early or plan ahead for any dine in aspirations, but plenty seem content to just call in for take away. I caught up with a friend for dinner there recently. We arrived right on 6 on a Monday evening, with a bottle of wine in tow (free BYO – always a plus!) so we had no issue finding a table. Staff are welcoming and efficient and we were swiftly brought menus and water as soon as we were seated. My dining companion, Miss L, actually lives within a stone’s throw of Ploy Thai so she could recommend a few dishes she’d had recentl

What I love about Ploy Thai is the traditional Thai ambience you experience, the staff are friendly and the décor is beautiful and everytime I go there it takes me back to my holiday to Phuket with Caviar Girl & Mia years ago. Take for example our table settlings… Ploy Thai is a small restaurant and can seat a max of 20 or so people, so it's always best to book as there's been many times where we wing it without a booking to find that it's been fully booked. I always find it hard to find an alternative on the spot when I'm hungry and have my stomach set on a specific restaurant. Anyway, to start we shared the vegetable spring rolls $7 served with sweet chilli sauce and as you can see below Ploy Thai's spring rolls aren't your usual sized spring rolls…I love good portions!

I have been eating at this restaurant since 2014, and the quality has never changed from being excellent. The Fish Cakes entree are highly addictive, all the curries are amazing. The Tom Yum soups are also amazing. The price is good too. Friendly Wait Staff, they have a bathroom and the place feels clean. Book on Weekends cause it gets really really busy.
