Food was good. Service was decent. Prices were decent ($21.90 for chicken pad Thai and spring rolls). Good location for our stop to the Enmore Theater.
If you like your food hot, ask for a side of chili. They were fresh and HOT! Added a good layer to the sweet pad Thai.
Would I be back or crave the food there? Probably not. -

Three Mangoes was my last dinner in Sydney and I was left very disappointed. The only positive was that it didn't cost much so my lacking wallet from traveling for two weeks was thanking me.
We stumbled in here because we had a bottle of red and BYO or GTFO ya know? Me and my two friends shared spring rolls, chicken satays and pumpkin and green curry.
Okay first off, don't eat meat but my friend said the chicken wasn't cooked thoroughly - yuck. Second, my spring rolls came out last?? They're an appetizer and were c r i s p y . They have crispy rolls on the menu and when I inquired, my waiter insisted they were the correct item. Whatever. On to the currys: If there is one thing Sacramento does pretty damn well it's a curry, and especially, in my opinion, a green curry. This stuff was lacking color, flavor, and the size was pitiful. At this point i was annoyed. The pumpkin curry was decent but way over-spiced and didn't have tofu like requested... found 2 slices hovering in the green curry. Mistake or not, they mixed it up, gave us hardly any (tofu was an extra charge), not to mention I'm up early with stomach pains from the abnormally cheap tofu they used. (Soy is awful on everyone's body, my body being the worst. I can spot crap tofu from a mile away - this fit the bill.)
Our waiter forgot to bring us what we asked and seemed surprised that we were asking for our food. Not to mention there were not many people inside (always a sure sign), so I don't know why being waited on was such an issue.
I know the point of my last dinner in my fave country was not for the food, but to see my friends, but cmonnnn. I was tipsy as well, and I still felt this way. I'm not a food snob but I demand better service in a city so close to South East Asia and in Newtown where some of the best food I've ever tried lives.
I won't be back. Sydney, yes. This place, no. There are five million BYO's that won't have me hovering over a toilet half the night. -

The service was friendly. Food arrived promptly however lacked the quality that we have come to expect in the Newtown area. Entrees were flavorless, grandmas duck ordinary, yellow curry was good though.

I really enjoyed my carbalicious meal here last night! (carbs carbs CAAARBS! Yaaaayyy!)
Entrees - fishcakes and coconut shrimp, the latter was my choice. Fishcakes = liked, but not really my thing. Coconut shrimp = big, deep fried, yummy and crispy.
I had spicy seafood noodles - the seafood was fresh, plentiful and DELICIOUS. I asked them how truly spicy the "spicy" noodles were and they said 'not very", so I asked them to make sure mine had some serious bite. There was some bite, but I still wasn't sweating or anything. My friend had the green curry with chicken which he was pleased with.
The thai ice tea was way too sweet and had no milk in it. I didn't finish it and I wouldn't order it again.
They deliver to Marrickville! So when I'm lazy and I want my carb extravaganza delivered to me, this is a option. I don't love any of the Thai places near me, they're all just "meh". I really loved my main dish here, it was a spicy, carby, seafoody perfection. -

Sorry but I didn't really like this place. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad. It's a decent place, I guess, but I've had much better Thai food at better prices.
The staff were friendly enough, and we were given a complementary bowl of prawn crackers. So far, so good. I ordered a chicken laksa while my mom got the tom yum soup.
The chicken laksa was, sad to say, the worst laksa I'd had. It wasn't totally horrible, but it was the worst of the laksas I'd taken. I usually love laksa, but I couldn't finish this one. It's like they put in too much coconut milk or something. It just tasted really weird.
The tom yum also tasted weird. It was strangely sweet, I dunno. And their prawn & seafood tom yum soup had exactly 1 prawn in it. Hehe.
I should've gone to Bank's Thai a few doors away. Much cheaper, with better food at bigger servings. The laksa was around $12.80, and it was a comparatively small bowl.
