Charles Thai - Newtown

Had a hankering for Thai food but didn’t want to leave the comfort of home so onto Menulog and ordered from there. Browsed what was available and settled upon Curry Puffs and Pad Thai With Duck. It was quickly delivered to me. <br/ <br/ The curry puffs were nice and crunchy with a lovely vegetarian filling served with a sweet and sour sauce. The pad thai had good pieces of duck throughout and a good flavour. Could’ve done with a tad more tamarind flavour.

This is the first Thai Restuarant I tried at New Town. Probably the closet one to uni! <br/ <br/ Lunch special $7.8 <br/ Dinner special $8.9 <br/ And you can get 1 free when you collect 10 stamps.<br/ <br/ Their food is quite oily and sweet, but free to tell them less sugar and oil. Always order Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mao and Pad Kee Wee. <br/ <br/ Good choice if you just want to grab some food in short time. It’s filling too!

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The staff, food, environment, music, and ambiance were all excellent. It has definitely improved since the last time I was there. I have lived in Newtown for nine years and have tried every Thai restaurant on King Street, but this one gets a 10/10 from me. The food was amazing and they really went above and beyond to make the night special. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of the Thai food. Don't miss out on this place, give it a try. Thanks to the staff for a great experience. The yellow curry and crispy pork were delicious, as were the money bags and curry puffs. I better stop talking about it now, I'm getting hungry again.

Delicious, authentic Thai food.  We go back at least two or three times every week because we 've tried all the hundreds of Thai restaurants around, and Charles is undoubtedly the best.  Best quality, best flavour, best value, best team.. Vege/vegan options are a win too..  One of those 'best kept secret ' places, right in King St but still flying under the radar.  Discover Charles for yourself before everybody else does.

What a great little gem! The food was delicious and the price was very good.
