Delicious food, great service, reasonably priced
Another great night at our local Thai. Great service, not noisy and really tasty food. Order from the specials, you can’t go wrong.
Got takeaway - pad Thai and the stir fried calamari/prawn dish. Absolutely delicious! Stir fry was fabulously spicy with a nice range of vegetables (zucchini, capsicum, carrot, baby corn) and the pad Thai was not spicy but packed heaps of flavour (suitable for our 5yo). Definitely better than some other Thai places in the area and we will come back!
Nice clean place with good staff and great food. Best massaman curry I've ever eaten. Also the house white wine was actually nice. Usually restaurants skimp heavily on their house wines by the glass but Samanee had a great one tonight. Will definately be coming back.
Nice and simple restaurant with nice decor. It was rather quiet the time we visited but I noticed many ubereats orders.
Green curry was absolutely delicious. The coconut rice was very fragrant as well. We also ordered tom yum soup and stir fried fish with veggies.
Plain and simple decor but we came here for the food.Best Pad thai around the West so far, Tom Yum is also full of flavour.
Will come back and try other dishes.
Delicious food and fantastic customer service. All the dishes had lots of flavour and the flavour was very distinct and unique. We had the green curry in coconut shell, lightly fried chicken stir fry, tom yum soup and thai fried rice. Will definitely be coming back for more!
It’s foods are rich and tasty. Of course, I haven’t tried all of them. But I really like their MASSAMAN NEUA and strongly recommend it. It reminds me of a Persian curry.
My family and I stumbled across this quaint, warm and inviting Thai restaurant. With 6 of us, we ordered quite a few items from the menu and I have to say they all impressed us. From the hearty chicken mushroom soup (Tum Kha Gai) to the show-stopper, slow cooked beef curry (Massaman Neua). Customer service was as you would expect from the ever-humble Thai people, great! I highly recommend this restaurant.
Very friendly staff and great service. food was delicious. The spring rolls and prawns as entrees where perfect. I had the lamb Penang curry which was served at with perfect 'medium' chilli as per request. A friend had the lightly battered chicken stir fry which was also delight. All dishes were enjoyed by all, and at a reasonable price. Will definitely be back!
Nice ambience and polite staff, got the green chicken curry and bf got the chilli chicken stir fry, was delicious, albeit the curry is a bit dear in price. After dinner ordered a chai latte which was nice too.
Absolutely loved this place, I've told so many people about it ! Me and my partner went one Sunday not long ago and the service was amazing and the food looked and smelt beautiful! I could actually say it was the best Thai I think I've ever tasted👌🏼 We will see you guys again very soon !
First time I've been here and it was very nice, I ordered the beef Massaman curry, the beef was extremely tender it just broke apart. A friend of mine ordered the pad Thai, she is a vegan so they were more than happy to make the changes to accomodate her. She really enjoyed her food as well.
The service was also great.

This is one of those wonderful restaurants which you will find in Moonee Ponds. It serves awesome Thai food which is very good in taste. The service and ambience is also too good. We ordered the chicken Satay which was served with Peanut sauce which was out of this world. Delicious, mouthwatering shall be underrated words for its taste that surpasses excellence. Not like the traditional satay. Must try. Then we ordered the Khao Pad Gai which is a delicious fried rice with chicken and veggies which was also very tasty. The price is not that high compared to the quality but it is definitely not on the lower side as well.
Have been getting my Thai from here since they opened. Love their food and their service. Favourites are Gai hong tae, curry puffs, duck curry and the Penang curry.

Ordered delivery from Samamee on 2 separate occasions and both times it was amazing! Ordered the same thing twice because I enjoyed it that much. A serve of the Khao Pad Gai (fried rice with chicken and veggies) with Roti bread and satay sauce. So much flavour in it all, I feel like I'll have to dine in soon. Couldn't really fault it.
Far better than average Thai and the best in the area. Scallop on beetle leaf is delicious, as are the red and green curries. The food quality is maintained even when home delivered. Good ambience and service.
Never been disappointed! Full of flavour and friendly service. Love the soft shell crab as an entree and the pad thai is delicious. If you're after a great meal and relaxed atmosphere, this is the place!
I have been here a couple of times.. This place for me is super fresh and very tasty. Enjoy dining here. The service from the girls is awesome and they are very friendly. The rockling is really nice. Good joint.
A delicious and local Thai place. We picked this place as it was in the entertainment book and close to home. We got there 6pm on a Saturday night and had the place to ourselves. We did notice though many take away orders were leaving the restaurant. We ordered chicken satay skewers, two stir fry dishes and rice. The food exceeded our expectations, staff were attentive and with the discount it was reasonably priced. We would be happy to go there again or order take away.
I grew up in Thailand and I'd say Samanee has some of the best and most authentic Thai food in Melbourne. Very friendly service and amazing desert
We had some Thai delivered - I usually don't eat Thai food because I don't like it (it's either too spicy or too sweet). However Samanee did a great job! Speedy delivery, delicious food, great and detailed customer service. I've been past their restaurant a couple of times, and after trying their food I will definitely make an effort to pay them a visit. Thanks
Had dinner here with 3 girlfriends on a Tuesday night. We were the only diners there so we received friendly and quick service. Food was yummy and fresh. Lovely spacious layout inside as well.
This place is better than your average run of a mill thai places. In an area that is saturated with many thai restaurants, this place stands out from the rest. My only concerned is the menu is a bit smaller than the others, however what they offer, they deliver on.
Most authentic Penang curry I've tried so far in Melbourne. I have been here many times over the past 4 years and the food is consistently good.
I have been here for dinner a few times and it has always been consistently good. The staff are friendly and very accommodating/flexible, with changing the dish if need be. I also like how they ask, how spicy you want the dish.
Fantastic food & great service. This is one of the best Thai restaurants that we have eaten at. Delicious fresh food and terrific service. Will definitely be back!
Went here on a Friday night with a small group of 4. Nice food and reasonably priced. Staff were a little intrusive at times and felt like they were listening in to our conversation. Had the pad Thai which was lovely!
Very happy :). Loved the service, loved the food even more. Both my partner and I ordered curries, which we enjoyed with coconut rice. Usually I take a photo before I eat but we finished everything on our plates before I even thought to take a photo!
The vibe here was also great, dimmed lighting I enjoy, definitely worth the drive!
Wow! this place is amazing. We went there for the first time last night and were very impressed. Fresh, authentic and delicious.
Best Thai we've ever had by far!! We are coming back for sure
Best Thai in Melbourne!. This place serves up the best Thai food in Melbourne. I've been to many other Thai restaurants around Melbourne and this place blows them all away in food, service and atmosphere. You won't be disappointed!
The best thai food in Melbourne. This place is amazing. My husband and I make a point of visiting this restaurent for every special occasion - the food and service is just fantastic. Highly recommend the pla goong and scallops for entree, and my husband is crazy about the curry puffs. For the main, the cashew nut chicken stir fry, rockling fillet stirfry with pears and mango, and the steamed barramundi are all winners. The food tastes fresh and well-seasoned, with each dish having its own distinct flavours. Consistently good food, attentive service, generous portion sizes and good value for money - this place has it all.
I will say it is one of the best Thai resturants I've been to in Victoria, so far!!! I cook authentic Thai and this is certainly authentic!! A curry with THAI egg plants and vegetables like in Thailand instead of broccoli and carrots in most Thai resturants in Australia.
The service was 5 star!!! service with a smile, our water glasses kept getting topped up, never got interrupted in the wrong time, best of ALL only took the plates away when every person on the table finished eating!!! You just don't get that often this day and age!!! Lastly.... The staff opened the door for us as we were leaving and thanked us!! How delightful!! Pure class!
Dined tonite, food was excellent ans service attentive. Must try the seared scallops!
Good food good service.. Honestly one of the best dining experiences ever. I eat out a lot and the food here is consistent and flavorful, the service is always friendly and polite. Recommend it every time
Favourite Thai Place. Amazing food, friendly staff. This is my pick of Melbourne's Thai resturants.
Nice food, friendly wait staff although a bit slow and a bit expensive for us.
Amazing food and excellent service. We had the banquet and everything was great. Glass never empty, hot towels and door opened when we left.
What a find, definitely go back.
Wonderful Experience. Had A reccomendation for this place as we live really close. Food was so delicious- The Scallops were amazing. So many flavours in all the food. Two of us shared an entree and had a main each which was plenty of food. Really different thai food and at a really reasonable price. Also BYO which is a bonus. Food was served in a reasonable time frame- we went on a sat evening and it was fairly busy. An absolute gem. We will be frequent flyers here, im sure. A wonderful dining experience.
The BEST Thai food!!!. Hands down, the best Thai I have for a long, long time. We have been here several times and it consistently exceeds expectation!
Excellent. If you want Thai food that tastes like Thai food...head to Samanee.
Unlike some "pretenders" who charge an arm and a leg for Thai inspired food, you can enjoy the real thing at a reasonable price.
Comfortable atmosphere.
Great service.
We'll be back many times...
Great food. The food is great. The service is excellent and a really pleasant atmosphere.
Definitely recommend this one.

Party of 3, enjoyed a catch up over dinner and didn't notice a huge wait for food. The place was full and a little on the noisy side but overall there was a good vibe. Staff were lovely & attentive. Water frequently topped up & napkin lapped. Between us we had a delicious muscleman curry (massaman) and rockling yellow curry with jasmine rice. All arrived piping hot. To end the meal, hot towels. Would recommend!
Authenic Thai experience. Some other reviews have mentioned long waiting times but perhaps because we had an early dinner reservation (6:30 on a Saturday evening) we found the service perfectly timed, thoughtful and attentive. The restaurant is beautiful with gorgeous, subtle lighting and elegantly minimalist table settings. Highlights of the menu for us were the Tom Yum soup with prawns - the best I have ever had, the Pad Thai Goong, and the chef's special Hanglay (?). The Mhor Kaeng dessert is an absolutely beautiful warm egg and taro custard served with treacle nut brittle ice-cream. We found the portion sizes perfect and the prices very reasonable for such a high quality dining experience. And all this only 5 minutes from home - bliss!
Very good. We are not long back from 2 weeks in Thailand and this was very authentic food. Nice decor, service friendly. Will return.
Hidden Gem!. This place is a hidden gem! I have driven past so many times but never been there until my friends told me.
It is a small shop front with beautiful settings (far better than other Thai place). The food may take a bit of time but it's worth the wait. My Tom Yum soup was phenominal and the scallop entree my gf had was to die for! We then shared the most beautiful steamed Barramundi I have ever had. The sauce on the fish was full of flavours (hot, sour, salty). Thanks god i had some rooms for their Parfait, coconut ice cream is delicious with fruits and cream.
As i said before each course may take a bit of time but all dishes came out together in each course and everything was a top notch
Interesting Thai. Multiple visits - I like this place. It offers a different style of Thai food. For example if you order beef and vegetables it doesn't just come with the stock-standard carrot, broccoli etc. There is a nice variety of interesting vegetables. One of the better Thai places I have been to. The interior is nice, and it's good value for money. 25% off with the entertainment book.
Can't wait to go back. I and my wife have had a lot of Thai in Melbourne and we this place is the best in north/west Melbourne. The food is super fresh and authentic with first class presentation. The flavours danced in my mouth!
Good thai. Good service-very attentive staff-food a little salty but nice Thai flavours.
Adequate serving size but teen boys could have eaten more.
Would recommend this thai restaurant.
Fantastic!!! Great decor, great service, amazing food, fast, attentive and caring staff. Our new favorite. Will return with friends! A must for Thai lovers.
Consistently fantastic. Modern setting with relaxing atmosphere. The food was so authentic and wonderful with amazing explosion of flavours. We have been here quite a few times and always get a fantastic meal and service. This is our new favourite Thai restaurant that always remind us to our trips to Thailand
Food is just fabulous and staff are so attentive... Nothing is too much trouble! Will be returning for sure!
This quaint restaurant serves some of the most authentic Thai food in Melbourne. The dishes are well presented, delicious and generous. The Thai music adds to the authentic feel of the place. I highly recommend this venue.
First impression of this place is that it looks pretty quaint. The menu covers the predominant Thai cuisine. We ordered appetisers which is highly recommend Miang Kam, it’s a dish that I think represents Thai palate in a dish! You’ll love it. Sweet, sour, spicy and light. Pad Thai is not too bad. Slightly different rice noodle, it’s thin and it’s missing the small shrimp paste that essentially what pad Thai is. But it was still good. Masaman curry was lovely. Not too sweet like most places. We absolutely love this place and would be back. Service is good. Price is a bit on the higher side. $$. Portion is big and proportionate to the price you pay. Overall 7/10.
Great service, beautiful food. Very loud room, would be 5 stars if owner invested in sound dampening material.
I've been enjoying Samanee's delicious food ever since eating there with family a few years ago. Whether eating in or ordering delivery, the food has never dissapointed and always leaves me extremely satisfied. Great range of dishes, fresh ingredients, and packed full of flavour.
We had an exceptional meal the other day. The flavors were lovely and the food was fresh. The massman curry was excellent and we enjoyed the slightly different stir fry with mango and a light sauce. The service was lovely. I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s my new Thai go-to. Value for money and they let you take the leftovers home.

First class meal. Went with my wife and 3 friends to celebrate an important family occasion. The food was wonderful. Entrees of sate chicken and soft shell crab were very tasty. The mains of Double cooked pork and green vegetables, Whole barramundi in a delicate sauce and vegetables, and a mild Green chicken curry were excellent. Very high quality Thai food. We will come back for another meal soon.
I had a business meeting at Samanee .They held a banquet for us. The food are fantastic , real Thai taste especially Padthai ( Best ever I and my friends life, even better than in Thailand) . The atmosphere is Clean , calm and nice. Staffs are friendly and helpful with great recommendation. Highly recommend to anyone that love Thai food!!!
