Volcano seafood stir fry served to your table sizzling with flames!! Set the room on fire... this dish was a show stopper and can't wait to return at this restaurant to have it again!!
The flavours and presentation of this dish were just impeccable... amazing and delcilous!
Entree we chose was equally impressive, full of flavour and nicely presented...
Mixed entree was delicious, soup with rice vermiccelli and chicken, whilst simple and flavours not overpowering it was still so enjoyable to eat
Small cozy clean restaurant with a subtle touch of thailand decor...large food selection on their menu and very well priced...service was very prompt and staff were very attentive and friendly....
Can't wait to dine at this restaurant again
This is our favorite Thai restaurant.
It never disappoints .
Always consistent wonderful flavours. Our kids love the Pad Thai, spring rolls and the roti bread with peanut satay sauce really really good. My wife loves the spicy seafood fried rice. And I love all the curries but my favorite is the pudd susa.
Absolutely Awsome.
First time that I ordered Thai Cuisines delivery from Kati Thai Restaurant. Quick delivery and good authentic Thai Food. Yet Pad Thai is a little bit sweet .
Thanks

Met a group of friends here for a catch up. Found it a bit cramped initially. We ordered roti bread, money bags, a pork skewer special, seafood salad and a green curry. All very fresh but nothing remarkable and smallish servings. It is BYO with a corkage charge
Tried this place tonight. Being a Sat night we expected a slightly longer wait but it arrived before we expected it. Massaman curry was amazing and our other chicken curry dish was so flavoursome. Ingredients were extremely fresh with all dishes. Very impressive and will be back to try more dishes.
Delicious food! I love their Pad Thai and Curry Puff! 🙂 very friendly and accommodating staff! The restaurant has a very relaxing and fone-dining dinner feel 🙂
The family decided on this restaurant for a casual family dinner one fine Sunday. Pleasant decor with suitably-themed wall hangings and music softly playing in the background.
Surprisingly there were no Thai-style drinks on offer, just a couple of juices and soft drinks which we found disappointing. We went for a variety of dishes - the papaya salad with soft shell crab, roast duck in a red curry, fried rice, volcano seafood and sweet and sour rockling. Having had som tum on previous visits to Thailand, I found Kati's offering pretty satisfying, if slightly too sweet. The soft shell crab was crispy and not too oily. The curry was a bit one-dimensional in taste, but the ingredients were fresh and the duck succulent and held its own against the slight sweetness brought by the lychee. The fried rice was a favorite with everyone, with good reason - the prawns were fresh, large and generous in number, and each grain of rice had a satisfying bite. The volcano seafood was a bit of a miss; whilst it brought some flaming theatricality to the table the sauce was watery and lacked punch. The last dish to arrive was the fried rockling. It was a hit! The filets were crispy and golden, a delicious combination with the strong flavours of the sauce.
Overall there were some dishes we preferred more than others. It's clear that Kati Thai uses very fresh ingredients but there was a lack of spice in most of our dishes which would have elevated them to another level. Another thing to keep in mind is that the curries come in rather small portions - ours came in a bowl that was perhaps enough for two to share, or for one hungry person.

Another great dinner.
Grilled Pork, a bit tough and salty, fantastic sauce/dressing.
Green Chicken Curry; okay
Thai Beef Fried Rice; okay
Pad Thai; smaller portion but easily one of the best in Melbourne.
Massaman Beef Curry; would be hard to beat.
Pla Sam Rod; spot on
Great service!
Another great suburbia Thai restaurant ....
Okay, this strip of North Balwyn Village is an old institution of Milk Bar, Chicken Bar, old Patisserie, etc. has now evolved into a bigger and better foodie centre.
Kati Thai is a great addition to the Village. Authentic home-style Thai cuisine.
Pleasant service and enjoyable place for lunch & dinner.
On recommendation from friends we visited this little restaurant last night.
Staff were delightful, food was fresh and served very quickly ….
BYO - worth a visit!
Consistently good food. Friendly staff and nice and clean sit down restaurant space.
Last meal ordered was the Massaman curry and it was perfect. Great Thai local.
We've never had a bad experience at Kati Thai so we keep coming back. The lovely chef owner clearly cares about her patrons and frequently comes over for a chat. This time we had red duck curry and stir fried beef with basil. So happy this local gem survived all the lockdowns!
Really enjoyed the meal I got from here, will be coming back!!
For many years I have had food to go and dined in ( prior to C19) with friends and family -always enjoyed. Once and only once there was a late delivery due to some yearly event on the calendar which I can't recall. Just last night for the first time I used their online menu and ordering service - so easy to navigate place an order and book a time to deliver. I cannot complain about their delicious authentic Thai food. Thank you for coming to the Village.

The best thai food in Melbourne!!!
I love the spicy thai fried rice, and the chicken wrapped in pandan leaves.
The staff are very friendly and welcoming.
I have bought food from here many times both dining in and take-out, and never have I had a bad meal. The food is always of high quality - from the curries to the noodles and mains I have thoroughly enjoyed every dish. Their consistency is important because there about 4 other Thai eateries within a 2km radius, I really don't need to go anywhere else.
Vegan green curry and cashew stir was very clean and flavourful. Would definitely go back the lady who owned the restaurant was so good very courteous.
Great place for Thai food. Customer service is excellent. Lady owner is also the chef, so she cooks with passion. She use her own garden chillies, which are naturally hot if you want some kick.
