  That night, I was looking forward to eating at Amphawa Thai Restaurant, expecting a nice casual dinner with a few close friends. What I received from the customer service, solely from the owner, was far from it & very disappointing. I have never written a bad review in my life, but this matter has been constantly dwelling on my mind since the incident & I feel it needs to be shared. As a Muslim girl I have never felt so uncomfortable eating at a restaurant in my entire life up until that night. Throughout the entire evening, the restaurant owner would show up at my table and constantly make smart remarks regarding my religion (the headscarf gave it away I was of Muslim faith). It initially started when I asked if the meat was halal, to which he replied & laughed, "maybe in a 100 years when I'm dead." I let this pass, thinking that was the end of it. To my surprise, the smart remarks continued throughout the night by the owner... "I'm going to bring you guys a nice big dessert with alcohol all over it," & "You've lived a very sheltered life from this world, haven't you?" & "Do you have a boyfriend?, I'll be your husband". By this point it was very clear he had a preconceived image of all girls wearing a headscarf. Australia is a very multicultural, very accepting nation, & in my 18 years of living here I have never ever felt so offended & discriminated against, never ever had someone create such a fixed & oversimplified image of who he thought I was as a person, with judgement based entirely on the headscarf around my head. My only regret that night was not standing up for myself right there and then & not speaking up about this matter earlier. I sincerely hope my review has made you understand that your comments were very offensive and in no way funny or to be taken lightly. Please try to be a little more conscious, a little more respectful, and little more understanding of other religions & cultures, so that maybe no one else will have to feel the way I did.

  Our favourite Thai restaurant not situated in Thailand. A comprehensive menu. Beautifully cooked and presented meals. Reasonably priced. Licensed. Lovely family business, eager to give you a positive visit. You will be back.

  Great customer service over the phone. Food was good however the Thai curry was a little watery. No tofu even though I ordered vegetable and tofu maybe lady didn’t hear me over the phone. My partner loved his. Gave us free prawn crackers!
