This establishment is run by the crew behind Thailicious, formerly in Mitchell Street. They have recreated the menu and flavours but, unfortunately not the ambience. The food was tasty and plentiful, the surroundings quite bland.Can't wait for the new Thailicious to open up.

Sa - Bai Thai Takeaway Darwin

Reviewed By NealeB1722

As visitors to Darwin we needed to get a reasonably priced feed after a movie and before a flight. Trip Advisor directed us here. Fast friendly service, good sized serves, very tasty food (the duck was really tender) and unpretentious decor. It is really a takeaway with some tables but don’t let that put you off. Totally recommended.

Mellow Thai Restaurant and Cafe

Reviewed By Vicki J

The food was good and very generous portions, they were very happy for me to take home what we could not eat. On the night we dined there seem to be only only one wait staff so the service was slow and the tables not cleared in a timely manor. All be it not the best Thai I have had but nice enough and worth a visit. Fully licenced and in a good location in the middle of the tourist area.

Amazing Thailand

Reviewed By JeffS758

This is a nice casual restaurant with a very relaxed feel about it. You can sit inside or at some of the trestle tables on the paving. The lady who served me was extremely pleasant and happy. She was also very busy taking all the orders, cleaning tables and delivering meals to tables.A very extensive menu and fair prices. It seems you pay as you order, which I can kind of understand as it’d be easy for people sitting outside to just walk off without paying. I’d suggest not sitting too close to the footpath. Lots of foot traffic, not all of it friendly.

Reviewed By jesssteane111

Unfortunately my first negative review. Had thailicious about 3 yrs ago and had the most delicious green curry duck, and laksa (my personal favourite) since then it’s changed hands which is understandable but no more duck green curry. They do a red duck curry which is admittedly quite delicious but I went for my old favourite laksa and honestly the worst laksa I’d ever eaten. I don’t know what the flavour was but definitely wasn’t laksa I thought it was a combo of chicken and prawn and unfortunately only got 3 large over cooked and gritty prawns and loads of some chewy fake tasting stuff all I’m guessing is tofu. NOO chicken at all! Very disappointed as I was so looking forward to a tasty laksa and unfortunately had to throw half of it out. Sorry thailicious but go back to the old recipe! It was way better

This restaurant offers a very similar Thai menu to that at the Border Store so is equally good, but the service ordering at the counter can be very slow. One night we gave up and ate nibbles in our room instead. The restaurant is near the pool area and is completely open so don’t forget the aero guard once the sun has set. Overall a good experience.

Came here for a friends birthday. Front house staff were good and attentive but it took forever to get food and cocktails from the bar. The place wasn’t especially busy so not sure what was going on. Good however when it finally came was pretty good Hi cal1133,So sorry to hear that you did not have an enjoyable evening and my sincere apologies for your delay on food and drink on the night.

This seems to be the restaurant of the Doubletree Hotel although the entrance is on a different street Mitchell). As a group of four adults, we ordered a variety of dishes, mostly starters, including oysters, tom yum prawns, prawn pakoras, duck salad, butter chicken, etc. All were tasty and we could not finish the quantity. Our food bill was AUD 134, increased by three cocktails and one beer to a total, before tip, AUD 191. Service was very efficient and, overall, it was an enjoyable meal.

Darwin Laksa Mindil Beach

Reviewed By B4792BLheatherh

I love laksa. Was so disappointed. Where’s the kick? The chilli? The sweat on your forehead?Was a very mild luke warm coconut soup. On your travels if you going to Melbourne take yourself out to Flemington Laksa King- that’s what laksa should taste like Hi, we thank you for your time to review us. Our Laksa's are made for everybody to enjoy, young & old, so spice is turned down. If you wanted the sweat your forehead with a Chilli kick there was plenty of Chilli on the Condiment table.Did you miss that?
