This is a local thai place around the corner from me. Albany Creek has a wonderful selection of takeaway restaurants and places to eat. We went to this thai restaurant having ordered takeaway from there a couple of times and we’ve been happy with the quality of the food previously, but never eaten in the restaurant itself. We decided to head down and eat inside. The interior has a nice thai feel about it. The décor is pretty standard thai restaurant décor. We chose one of the set menus where you get entrees, main and dessert. Sadly, the experience was not very good. The food while somewhat tasty, was extremely oily and prohibitively expensive. The price tag definitely doesn’t match the quality of the food that we were served. Mains start around $ 20, we did the set menu and it was $ 27 per person which is seemingly good value. You get a lot of food, but it was extremely oily and overcooked. The seafood stirfry we got, the scallops were overcooked and the prawns were as well. Disappointing. There was only one other group in the restaurant, but it took forever to get our food. The guy even gave a couple of our meals to the other table. He did apologise, but he kept making mistakes and was more concerned with takeaway orders than us. They also forgot our dessert as well until we reminded them. All in all it took about 2 hours, we had a crying baby with us as well. The service was horrendous. With much better options in the area like the neighbouring Indian restaurant and Portabella, they really need to up their game for dine-in orders.

A cute little restaurant located in Albany Creek(as it’s name suggests), Albany Creek Thai is one of my local favourites. The food, which is full of flavour, light and fresh and not too oily(I find a lot of Thai restaurants use too much oil in their cooking). I order out here usually once a month and I always order the Vegetable Pad Thai Noodle which is delicious! My kids(who are exceptionally fussy eaters) absolutely love the Hor Tong(Golden Parcels), these are little deep fried pastry parcels filled with minced pork, crab meat, prawns, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots — they get gobbled up very quickly in my house. A meal for a family of four will cost around $ 40, this includes an entrée and two mains(mains are around $ 16 each). The restaurant is decorated with traditional thai statues, natural timbers and earthy tones. It is great to dine in but I rarely have the time. Great food and good staff.
