Food and service is top notch. Very reasonably priced, Massaman curry was the best I’ve ever had. We also got the mixed starter which was delicious, the food is so fresh. The restaurant is so clean just such a nice place to go, my fiancé and I will definitely be back!! Well worth a visit.

Hi Asenathi,

We just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for the wonderful review you left for us shortly after we opened in November 2022.
Your kind words and support during those early days meant more to us than we can say.

Apologies for the delay in replying — we are truly grateful for customers like you who have been part of our journey from the very beginning.
We hope to welcome you back to New Pa Pa Thai again very soon!

Warm regards,
