We decided for late lunch, it was nice of them to give us takeaway but food was pathetic. We ordered spicy noodles, there was no spice and fried rice had chunks of egg with not a hint of sauce or salt. It was treat for kids and we paid a price which was a big regret……food was disgusting. Shame on them for putting us off Thai food for sometime. Very disappointing and a big rip off.

Fabulous food, exceptional service all at a great price. And all the meals arrived at the same time. Have been here many times for different occasions and never been disappointed at this wonderful Thai restaurant. No one can ask for more than that.

Spices is one of those restaurants that you are glad you have found and will return to time and time again. Usually end up there for lunch and have never been disappointed. The portions are a good size and are flavorful, I especially like the way they give you two perfectly cooked money bags on the side with your meal – a very nice touch especially seeing they are crammed with tasty filling. The service is excellent and very quick and their beverages are well priced, like their menu which features all the usual Thai dishes.

I recommend this place to all my friends but it would pay to book as sometimes they look full and if you have a larger group you may miss out. Thank goodness for their welcome presence in Botany.

The new decor at the Lunn Avenue branch is just fantastic. Clean and immaculate, very impressive indeed. Food was served so quickly. The Thai Green Curry was amazing. Recommend that you should try it.

By far the best Thai in our area. The food is fantastic and the staff so friendly and helpful. We often take our children here and the Owner is so family friendly – even sets little places for the children with bowls etc…By far our favourite!

Went there for dinner back in September 2011.
Despite being busy the staff was really friendly.
Food was out in good time…..really yummy too.
They had excellent service, topping up water and offering more rice.
Definitely go back!

Have eaten here many times and pick up take aways, great menu and alway cooked to perfection. only takeaway menu in our house.

Had a rather large work lunch here once, food was served at same time, with no complaints at all from anyone.
Tasty food.
Have had takeaway from here also more recently and food was to die for.

Love love love this place! It is a regular destination for high quality Thai food with loved ones Yum!

I’d have to say one of Auckland’s top Thai restaurants.

Fantastic food, lovely environment and great service.

Enough so that we often drive from Papakura for takeways there!!

As well as a great evening for dining in.

Full marks.

it has a good environment when first entering it looked grate they have Nice employees but the menu is just too expensive food was way over price who would want to buy a bowl of rice for $24:00 i mean rip off there was to much flavor or no flavour at all an i asked for mild and it was very hot and spicy and not eatable i could not get the hot taste out of my mouth so i Had to drowned it down with lots of drinks which the drinks where over priced too after i drank lots of cold beverages the taste was still in my mouth but i did enjoy the naan breed but at he end i felt ripped off and UN satisfied and wont properly go back again.

My first encounter with Thai Spices was at their restaurant in Highland Park.
I found the atmosphere, service and over all attention by a very friendly staff fully up to the standard of a first class restaurant in Thailand, which I visit annually.
More recently these very competent people opened in Botany Junction- a much more authentic ambiance and the food as consistent as the Highland restaurant.
I totally recommend this chain of three sites- one recently opened in Mt Wellington.
The food will always be first class and to top it all off, they accept B.Y.O without hesitation.

I have come to be a regular to this restaurant. Food is excellent, they cater for my food allergies. The staff are just wonderful, always smiling. Decor is very Thai although prices have again increased, can be on the expensive side if you choose the al la carte for lunch. However there is a great cheap lunch menu on offer. Need to play more Thai background music, adds to the ambiance. Lunch and dinner, highly recommnended and a great BYO charge.

This is one of our favourite restaurants.

Staff are always ready to help and great with kids. Many of the menu items have vegetarian versions that really do taste very good.

Restaurant itself has many objects to look at and enjoy… especially the huge swamp kauri water feature by John Freeman.

The lunch special is really good value – reflected in the number of people that turn up regularly.

It is always a very pleasant experience.
