Chat Thai became an instant smash hit in 1989 when it opened its first restaurant with plenty of heat and authentic Thai dishes. We've since added restaurants in Circular Quay, Westfield Sydney, Neutral Bay, Chatswood and Galeries Victoria, and in 2015 we added organic, fresh produce from our farm in Byron Bay. We look forward to meeting you soon.

    This is one of my favourite thai restaurants, the food and service never disapoints no matter to what Chat Thai location you go. If you are looking for something beautiful and yummy that won't break your budget, than this is a wonderful place to go out.

    Great place to go, especially if you have a play to catch at the Opera House. Conveniently situated by the trains and Light rail. Food was really tasty, staff very attentive, and the restaurant very busy, it is best to book. We will definitely return there.

    Great place. Loved the food and the vibe. Definitely check it out. Unfortunately the servers forgot that I had mentioned it was a birthmark event so we did not get to celebrate that but other than that the experience was nice

    Food was great as always. However, the service disappointed this time. I had specifically put on the notes saying that it’s a birthday occasion and requested if a mango sticky rice would be brought out with a candle once we finish with our mains. Not only that request was ignored, we were also not asked about our last order. When we tried to order the dessert thinking they might have forgotten, they told us that the kitchen has already closed. We were really disappointed as it has become like a tradition for our friend group to come to this place for our birthdays. We will definitely come back because we all love the food there. But other than that part, the staff were attentive. Just wanted to advise to acknowledge the requests made by customers properly.
