Leelavadee - Templestowe (VIC)

Ordered from takeaway menu, food ready on time, lovely service. Food was fresh and tasty nice large prawns too!!

10 months ago I wrote a raving review for this restaurant it was my favourite place to go and has been for years. The last few time I have ordered however, the food has been bland and the portions have been significantly smaller for the same price which isn’t cheap when buying for a family. I don’t know what changed, but this is no longer enjoyable at all.

Good food and great service. I used to work here as well and now also customer. Recommend if you're in the area.

After a month long visit to Thailand some years back, I have struggled to find real Thai food in Oz, so I learnt how to make it traditionally myself. That resulted in me no longer ordering Thai food in Oz. Tonight I decided to test the waters again….still convinced there is little to no good, authentic real Thai food in this country unless you do it yourself, or you are friends with Thai’s. Restaurants clearly are not sharing the good stuff. My review of dinner was it is “good for an old person that has stomach issues with sensitive taste buds”. In the mean time, I’ll keep cooking real Thai food myself!!

Took over one hour for mains to come out. Even some people who came to pick up take away orders were waiting 40 mins more than expected. When I asked about the issue they said it was due to the number of stir-fry orders, (a Friday) Food was absolutely delicious but the wait was extremely difficult in such a super-noisy restaurant. Will try again another day and update review if better.
