We dinned at this restaurant 7 april 2010 made a booking got there at 6:30pm and ordered,starter arrived and that was good they werent overly busy but at 7:50pm my partners meal arrived and I asked if mine was comming and was assured it was at 8:20pm asked again as my parnter had finished his they looked abit confused and said they had forgot to write it down so we decided to leave not wanting to wait another 2 hours for service we got some lame sorry for not cooking my meal and that was that no discount or drink for there mistake,left very dissappointed and hungry will not be back it ruined my weekend.

We have dined in & had takeaways from Thien Thai several times and never been disappointed, consistently good tasty meals

Love the dishes the meals are served in, staff always friendly

Definitely recommend to others

Hi went to this restaurant this evening. Friendly waitress who was extremely attentive from the moment we walked in – beautiful traditional dress. Our flowers on the table were plastic and had been singed by a candle. BUT the food was top notch, the prices were really reasonable and the flavour of the foods was really the best. It was the best fishermans basket Thai style that I’ve ever had. The dishes and cutlery were beautiful and thai styled. The pricing was extremely reasonable we will defo go here from now on. Only things that I could say that could make the place better would be the front door – it’s really hard to open, maybe paint the walls white or brighten things up a little, some light thai music in the background – a verbal thai greeting as you enter or leave that sort of thing just elevates a place in my eyes – but I would have to say this is the BEST Thai restaurant we think in Hawke’s Bay.

Great food, excellent and speedy service in a full-house on a Saturday night. Recommended.

Wandering down Marine Parade to find somewhere to have dinner, and what a good find we came across!! Excellent food, lovely extensive menu and not too pricey which is always a bonus! If you are in napier and want a good thai, this is the one to go for!! Thanks

An on the spur of the moment decision to eat here one night turned out to be a delight. The place was about 90% full which isn’t a lot as the place is rather cosy but still not cramped like so many small places can be. Anyway the two waitresses we out of this world, quick efficient and they still had the time to explain the dishes to customers, clear table, seat new diners and take payment. Then the food. I have eaten Thai food in many countries and Thailand also and all I can say is they offer a authentic Thai dining experience on the Parade in Napier. Excellent food, excellent service and very reasonably priced.
