Bangkok Bites Newtown

Cash only, atm next door though. Super tasty, authentic, quality food for the price and so much choice and variety on the menu. A large chunk of the menu can be made with any meat, or meat replacement, basically. They're usually super busy with Uber eats orders, so it did take a little while for a waitress to serve us but once she took our orders, it came out in about 10-15 mins and was so fresh and tasty. $50 for two mains with a delicious Thai iced lemon tea I highly recommend to have with your meal. Sit at the front table to people watch as you eat if you like that kind of ****, Newtown is perfect for it of course ;)

Best Thai I've had in Sydney. Completely delicious and I've tried 5 different meals on the menu. Not been let down by a single one. Totally fresh an totally yum! Loud up beat vibe in this fast paced gem in Newtown. They catered to my birthday plans and created space for 13 people. Will continue going here again and again. Great for vegan options also ????

The restaurant looks interesting as it was always packed full of people when I walked past. So I decided to order a simple takaway food from Bangkok Bites for Sunday night. Crab and Prawn Fried Rice and Crying Tiger. Pretty standard items but it cost $29.90.  Both servings were very  generous and the ingredients were very fresh. Especially generous with four big, plump and juicy prawns and plentiful crab meat! The beef also tasted fresh and tender. What let both dishes down is the flavour.  I love authentic Thai taste and also some well done modern Australian Thai but these two dishes did not taste right. They did not have an authentic Thai flavour albeit the restaurant is called Bangkok Bites.  The sauce they used for fried rice and beef marinate are both very sweet. What I expected from Crab Fried Rice is a fluffy light flavour but the fried rice was somewhat oily, texture slightly gluggy and the heavy strong flavour of the sauce was overpowering the delicate crab meat taste. The dipping sauce for Crying Tiger was also too sweet and sticky with not enough sour and salty taste, although it has slight bite of spiciness. The balance was way off.  Bangkok Bites is certainly accustomed to Australian taste but definitely one of my least favourite. So I probably won't try again as the flavours are really not for me.

Big servings and good food. Friend loves the massaman beef and I tried the crispy duck - both delicious! Fun looking menu and busy place. Only cash rule is a bit dodgy.
