Yum, love food at Ruang Thong 2. Had array of dishes – pad thai noodle, chicken fried rice and beef sizzling (love its sauce) – with friends. Still can’t understand if their prices are always that low for all that food. Homely, easy atmosphere; 2 year old given high chair and all the staff came out to fuss over her. She loved the attention and hoovered up the noodles. I could relax a bit, feast and laugh. So, yeah, time out to praise this excellent canteen style thai restaurant.

I called Ruan Thong Thai – Cuisine 2 to book for dinner as I was having deal voucher a day before last day. They refused to give booking saying they are fully booked and we have to call them 24 hours in advance so I requested them for takeaway which they refused. I then decided to book for next day which was last day for Deal Voucher and to my surprise they refused to give booking for next day too saying it’s fully booked. The lady who answered the phone refused to help for booking and also refused takeaway even though contacted one day in advance. She was very rude and when asked about her name she bang disconnected phone. Totally disappointed…

Very confusing when reading these reviews as I think there are reviews for 2 different places here. Had booked for correct place but went to the Mercury plaza as described in some of the reviews. R.T.T. C. 2 is the one at 197 Symonds St NOT in Mercury plaza.
When finally at the right place they were busy and we were seated by a lovely gentleman who was a good friend trying to help out. Staff were attentive and pleasant. Food was full of flavour although felt the quantity of some of the mains were less than you would get in other places. However in saying that, prices were a bit cheaper too so give and take I guess. All in all a pleasant evening, thank you.

Very good to hear that they always only serve MSG free food. Even all their sauces of which they have about 6 or so were all free of MSG.

The food was very yummy and truly authentic. We had a curry and a dish with noodles which was both very nice. I was also surprised about the prices – a (vegetarian) main dish was only $10 (with meat only $11!)

Food came super fast – we were also the only ones in there as it was quite early, but I was still surprised how fast it was.

I went last night with a deal voucher and was really pleased with the meal! The voucher gave us great value but actually looking at their menu, I think I would return as their pricing is very reasonable and gives a lot of choice. We had the starting platter and then ordered 2 prawn pad thais. We were very happy with them Service was good, staff are really friendly and I felt very welcome to be there. Will be returning

Terrible, but my dog enjoyed it. Pad Thai is a subtle mix of tastes and textures and needs to be cooked to order. Food cooked several hours earlier or reheated just isn’t good enough no matter how cheap it is. I guess you get what you pay for but there are cheaper ways of feeding the dog.

I love this place! handy location & great for takeaways!!! Of course its not a 5 star thai restaurant or anything but its great value for what you pay for.. Around $10 a dish with generous servings; it tastes great! plus it has a A grade food rating on the wall! I’ve been to Thailand twice, love thai food; and would prefer this place to most flash thai restaurants in AKLD that I’ve been too.

This restaurant is terrible. I mean, I’m not exactly a huge thai fan as it is but usually I like the entrées and the pad thai – from this place everything I had (including pad thai, spring roll, money bag, samosa, and a couple of bites of my partners meal) tasted like it had been cooked in sugary water. I left most of my pad thai and half of each of the entrées behind as it was just not worth eating.
