Super authentic Thai food, loved everything we have ordered: entrees (spring rolls and money bags), mains (massaman beef curry and ho-mok talay), sides (garlic fried rice and jasmine rice). Our mains are amazing: hands down the best massaman beef curry we ever had (3 hours slow-cooked beef in herbs and massaman curry did make a huge difference in the texture and flavor of the beef), and the Ho-mok talay (steamed seafood and veges with red curry sauce and egg) was an absolute delight. This was the first time we had Ho-mok talay and were impressed with the taste profile (love it so much that we ended up ordering another bowl of rice to have with the sauce, yum). Highly recommended and we will be back next time we are in Geelong!

Excellent food, excellent service. We have been going to Panny Thai every month or two for at least 5 years, and it is by far the best Thai restaurant in Geelong. I'm vegan, my wife is not, and we both get a huge range of options. Cannot recommend this place enough as neither of us have ever had a bad feed here

The sweet chilli sauce with the spring rolls had a little bit more kick than other restaurants and was perfect as a result. Veggie pad Thai was also spot on

Always great food and nice staff. Phone order was 30min late but staff were apologetic. Fresh cooked food is worth the wait.
