"...Like an old friend, Thai Friends' menu is familiar, safe, reliable..."

Amanda Linnell, NZ Herald - June 2009

"...Thai Friends serves food that is sweet, delicate and tangily tasty, cooked and presented with great care and attention to quality, and backed by competent, friendly service. It’s a lot of fun."

N/A, Metro Live Magazine - May 2008

"...The décor is unmistakably Thai from the portrait of the Thai King above the bar to the decorative runners on the tables. Service can be a touch inconsistent..."

N/A, Metro Live Magazine - May 2007

"Thai Friends is popular with Parnell locals for its fast service, affordable takeaways and warm welcoming restaurant... Thai Friends offer a decent wine list and selection of beer..."
