Reviews of Global Thai Restaurant & Bar
D.Well!!!
This joint must have a new chef (or something), as the food was unbelievably nice. (We got takeout last night). Far better than the very average and ingredient compromised attempts they used to serve up since they have been open.
Forget about those reviewers who have no idea about what constitutes excellent fare and continually give mediocre establishments rave reviews, thereby misleading punters. It is these reviews that then misguidedly make the restaurant owner complacent and accepting of the rubbish produced by their kitchen.
Let's hope this new culinary commitment to properly reflecting what good Thai food should taste like, continues.
S.Great food. Fast and friendly service. Had to rush with our order due to low number of other customers, felt a little rushed; however, the food is delicious.
R.Fantastic little gem, tucked away at the corner of the Strand. Their food is very authentic. I have never had a better red duck curry before!!! Would highly recommend giving it go. Their prices are reasonable and their service is very warm and friendly.
P.Outstanding food ... quality and quantity...tasted great. These people know Thai food. The service was excellent. Reasonably priced. Will definitely return.
J.Food presentation was very lacklustre. Alcohol was over priced. $16 bottle of Church Road was $45! Atmosphere was not very 'Thai'. We asked the servers two questions about the food which they didn't know the answers to. No mirror in the mens bathroom. On the up sides: Mains pricing was very good. The food came out in good time, and the servers, while not knowledgeable about the food they were serving, were nice. I asked for 'Thai hot', and my main was actually spicy, so well done here.
S.Very clean and friendly restaurant. Only downside was that the chief was uncompromising when it came to requesting vegetarian options. Also their menu and especially the 'tablets' that the waiter's carry around for taking orders needs more flexible options. Otherwise very good!
B.Went here for Valentine’s Day , Drinks took 20 minutes to arrive followed by meals , then caught a waitress as she passed ordered another 2 drinks as no one asked if we wanted another drink , and then the drinks finally came ,by that time we had both finished our meals so sent them back
Went up to pay and what I think was the owners quiet rude to deal with
Won’t be back in a hurry
W.Always a nice meal and pleasant service. A very good menu and selection of Thai or European cuisine.
T.First time we have tried it since moving here 9 years ago absolutely loved the dinner (takeaway) will order again
K.Friendly staff, nice size portions of food, food was delicious will definitely recommend if you have big eaters and are looking for value for money.
J.The pad Thai and spring rolls were nice but they had run out of cashews, which shouldn’t happen as they are part of a main dish . Staff were very nice .
K.We come here for dinner. It was busy and the food was good with a good menu.
I would come back here again.
P.Very good service their curries are great but you can have a steak to your liking if you aren't into Thai meals.
M.As always my meal was delicious and the service was great
B.Beautiful food, lovely ambience, smiling hosts. Will be back next I am in Whakatane.
B.I've been to global thai 4 times in the last year and never had a bad experience. Meals are always generous, well priced and really tasty, favourites are crying beef salad or anything with the crispy pork,Yum!
N.Beautiful food and excellent service, highly recommended
T.Great range of Thai food but also caters to people on the pickier side
K.Lovely place to eat. Great food. Good service. No complaints from me
D.The food was very enjoyable. Surroundings pleasant. Busy but tables had enough space so one could have private conversation. Staff most helpful and cheerful. Impressed that they fitted us in. Certainly will return when back in Whakatane. Lovely addition to be given a small bosof chocolates as it was Valentines Day.
D.Excellent Food Great Service and Everything was Perfect.
C.yet again, we had a wonderful meal at Global Thai.last night.Delicious and aromatic flavours, big portions and great service. Cannot fault it, and all at a very good price. Can't wait to go back, thank you for a great evening!
A.Highly recommend the staff where lovely and the food was delicious! We had a wonderful night and they we're very accommodating with children, having a separate kids menu was a bonus too. We will definatly be back :)
P.Very generous sized portions for dinner. Service is quick and friendly. Food was delicious. I had the duck red curry and hubby had yellow curry. Generous serving of meat in both dishes.
C.Very tasty meal as always! I appreciate the paper straws and the coconut juice was a pleasant surprise to drink. Would recommend however if you’re very hungry the servings are smaller than other places, filled me up though.
K.Fantastic vegan and gluten free options options
P.Wow, the Sizzling Duck turns out to be a whole duck ! You better be hungry ! It was so good, with the vegetables and the sauce, yummy. They are fast too.
S.Great Thai food in Whakatane. We stopped by on our way through and really enjoyed the meal. Thanks!
B.The place is confused, it's a Thai restaurant with tables in straight lines which looks like an old office block. Nothing screams Thailand when you walk in. The place also had a another menu printed on A4 paper with steak and more kiwi offerings which is odd.
They seem a bit confused as to what they are.
Food was ok but I wouldn't come back. I'm a bit confused by the 4.2 star rating and expected more but each to their own.
Was a good meal but nothing special like other Thai places I've been
L.Fantastic food, Fantastic service, this place did not disappoint, we will be back and will bring friends, good to have somewhere like this to go to.
K.The place is very nice, the ambience is pleasant. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is first rate. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I recommend Global Thai to all.
S.Just went out to dinner at Global Thai to celebrate
our 20th Wedding Anniversary.
20 years ago we had our wedding reception upstair where we were, which was then called Go Global
Thanks to Chintana and the team at Global Thai for a lovely meal and a celebratory gift to mark the occasion.
B.Really impressed with the service here! Portion size of food is so good for he price, friendly staff. Keep it up. 😀
m.I thought the waiting staff were great. They responded positively to comments about the food suggesting it's preferable that anything that isn't quite right be mentioned straightaway so that it can be dealt with immediately. I would personally do that but other members of our party were too shy maybe? Better to let the kitchen staff know and they can then remedy the situation. Much better than saying nothing then going away and dissing the restaurant!! I loved my meal. It was very tasty, the rice was cooked beautifully and the vegetables were cooked just right. Thank you.
j.Yummy Thai food and a European menu for those that don't spicey. 7 of us had a meal there,some of us had 3 course while the others only had 2. Even with the drinks we had it was still only $401. GreT service great value.
Q.Love the Thai green chicken curry, delicious range of meals from Thai style to European. Nice atmosphere to dine in, you can also call up and get your food to go which is awesome 😊
M.Prompt service. Very fried
Ndly welcome and nice range of food.
Food was delicious. Definitely great place to eat.
P.Yum yum yum. I come here all the time. Food is consistently good and value for money. Caters for for all tastes with small European menu too.
M.The best massaman curry outside of Thailand
I.The food is good, the atmosphere is okay. However. The service is somewhat terrible most times that I have been there with long waits to be served to the point we once waited half an hour after our main course to be asked about dessert.
Also, the meal is served with a plate of rice in the shape of a star with two peas for eyes and a slice of red onion to make a smile, turning what is otherwise a fantastic looking dish into a juvenile craft project.
E.Excellent service, food was better than average. Nice relaxed atmosphere & the girls looked great in their Thai dresses.
R.Great food and not bad service good ambience and also free salt n pepper shakers when we left which are awesome cheers for that
T.We got takeaways here the other night for my birthday, they were delicious as always, fast and super friendly. They even gave me a box of chocolates with a Happy Birthday note ! Made my evening !! Highly recommend.
W.Our medium rare steaks came out well done, will order rare next time. Value for money, especially having been served the biggest creme brulè ever. Staff were abit slow at being proactive with taking orders at the start but they are friendly though. We would definatly go back for desserts.
K.We enjoyed our meals. Awesome service from the staff. We have been there before and will go again. Thanks to the wonderful service and meals we received.
B.Staff were awesome, lunch was fab
E.Spring rolls are amazing and always my first must have! I usually go for the $22 lunch and it really is value for a wonderful meal. Enjoy!
M.We had really lovely chicken satays and shared a main which was well large enough for two. Mocktail was great to have as I didn't fancy wine
s.Great meal good service however they say will pick you up in tuk tuk but then say we have not done for two years
C.Very tasty Thai food! Very friendly service. Highly recommended to all. The ambiance was pleasant with a quiet environment although a bit drab compared to what it could have been had the restaurant invested more in decorations.
S.What a great restaurant we come across in Whakatane. Delicious meals and we tried the deep fried ice cream. The only thing would be the bright white fluorescent lighting (which still gives them 5 stars) they needed ambient lighting for dining at night.
T.Great food but resturant atmosphere is killed by the lighting which is like being in a school hall, too bright, stark and clinical. Soften the lighting bring back the atmosphere the top restaurant had.
T.Great authentic thai flavours to suit everybody's heat sensitivity. Also has European menu. Steak meals look amazing altho I havnt tried 1 yet. Great drinks list. Love this place
O.Food is delicious, service was amazing.
They would of got 5 stars if we left full, for nearly 20 dollars a plate, you would expect a bigger portion.
J.Yummy food to suit everyone and friendly service. Clean, quite and spacious atmosphere.
M.Delicious meals & desserts everyone got there right spice heat 2.
