@siam Thai Restaurant

We came here with the intention of trying the hotpot but the selection was quite small so we opted to order from the normal menu instead. I ordered the Tom yum soup, pork neck skewers, satay chicken skewers, roti bread and pineapple fried rice. The pork was tender and I loved the dipping sauce, it was sweet and tangy and full of herbs and spices. The satay chicken was a bit dry and personally I found the sauce too creamy. The roti bread was very buttery and crisp on the outside however I would prefer it more flaky. The pineapple fried rice was delicious, super tasty although there wasn’t much pineapple. The Tom yum was very tasty and generous with seafood. Overall a delicious and satisfying meal. I highly recommend the pineapple fried rice and pork neck skewers.

Close to the Chinatown part of Melbourne, this place has a lot of competition however, I found my meal very good. At 2pm there were only a few customers so got a nice seat. Staff were quick to give me some water and the menu and after a few minutes of making the difficult decision of whether to have noodles or rice, my order was taken. Food was prepared quickly and portion size was good. The pad thai came with a free lunchtime offer and the iced tea was superb and I mean superb. So delicious that I asked how they made it. Price was $14 for the lunch. With so many other places to eat, this place did hold its own however, as I explore the area more, it'll be interesting how it holds up against the many other eateries nearby.. Wheelchair friendly. Kid friendly. Pram and stroller accessible.

Visited this place with a colleague who enjoys Thai cuisine and takes spicy food. It was our first visit here and was expecting decent authentic Thai food given the fairly good reviews. Despite the friendly service, we were disappointed with the food. We're ordered Tom yum soup, pineapple fried rice and grilled pork neck. All dishes were salty, tom yum soup had the tanginess but lacked spiciness. Grilled pork neck were just fatty meat. Unlikely to make a return visit.

Visited with my relatives on Sunday for lunch. We ordered couple of starters and some main course. Ordered Moo Ping (Skewered Pork) as one of the starters, and what we received was totally different than what the picture in the menu showed it as (photos attached). Although the main course food was pretty decent and enjoyable, this goof up with the starters was a mood killer. Would give it a miss next time.
