    Staff were a bit rushed, but it was a Tuesday night. Food was fresh, ginger tofu a little light on vegetables but still tasty. Solid 7/10

    A local favourite - didn't disappoint again. Always tastes very fresh and the flavours are great - try the Spicy Crispy Pork (despite the name it isn't very spicy).

    Balance Thai is, quite simply, some of the best Thai food I’ve ever eaten in the world, including Thailand. I have been going there for 10 years and it’s amazing tasting food. I’m very proud to take friends and family there as they are so impressed with the delicious flavours and very quick service for a very fair price. They immediately say hello to my dog and bring her a bowl of water to the footpath and I get a very warm welcome with nice smiles. The portions are generous too.

    Excellent food and service. We had an unexpected additional person join us, no trouble to change tables to cater for the additional person. Thank you.

    Food was nice. It could be a bit less sweet. Table for 2 people is way too small. Not enough space to put all the plates and bowls. Use slightly bigger tables. $4 corkage per person can be reduced. Would love a deep fried fish dish. How about experimenting with specials using seasonal produce?

    We love this place. Food is amazing, service attentive and speedy and prices always good. To cap a good meal the mango, sticky rice and coconut dessert was divine! As always a pleasure.

    This is our local and we go fairly often. Food and service are always great and so consistent. Top picks are the crispy squid to start and the tamarind roast duck and lamb shank massamam for main!

    The restaurant was so busy! That's because the meals are so delicious and the portion sizes generous. I loved the crunchy fresh vegetables in the stir-fry. Curry puffs had light fluffy pastry. Only criticism is that there aren't any vegan options.

    Food was great and service wonderfully polite and kind. One of the few restaurants who have pricing that allow friends and families to catch up for a lunch or dinner.

    This is a great local restaurant - the food is consistently tasty and fresh and the staff are lovely and attentive. The flip side of its popularity last night was that the noise level was really high. I had to shout so my dinner date could hear me. Will definitely return, hopefully on a less busy evening.

    It was a beautiful evening. The food was amazing. So super fresh and delicious. Fantastic flavours. They were super busy tonight so it took a while to take our order and get drinks etc... But that's ok... It's so nice to see it so busy. Will definitely be back.

    Our favourite Thai restaurant. Never disappointed. The food and service are fantastic. So too was the attention to hygiene and the Covid plan. I would highly recommend this place unless you have hearing problems as it can be a little noisy.
