ARANI Thai Restaurant

Lucky to get one star. Make excuse after excuse when they say order will be ready at one time but then have to wait another hour. Terrible customer service. It's a good thing the food is the only thing good about this place.

Shocking. They put green/blue dye in their green curry. Rubbery garbage. What a disappointment. Avoid, at all costs.

Pad Thai was a major let down. The dish had no liquid and was extremely sweet.
I had 3 bites of the garlic prawns and threw it away, all I could taste was coriander.
Still looking for Geelong’s number 1 Thai. This isn’t it.

Really enjoyed my dinner here, great food, they have a separate gluten free menu with lots of choices, chicken and cashews, pad thai, pad satay, etc Only one gluten free curry which was the jungle curry and very hot, not to my taste but the others enjoyed it. I'm not sure why there's no other curries on the gluten free list, it's not that hard to make a curry gluten free. Great friendly service. It is a small restaurant so good to book ahead.

As much as we love the food. Unfortunately we have been declined our order through Menulog twice now. It is very inconvenient. Will not be back

Waiting for 15mins for cleaning the table. Noodles are too sweet and the soup is too sour to eat as well! One Waitress is not friendly.

Terrible customer service. Lamb curry filled with vegetables and six very small pieces of lamb. Politely complained to staff about very limited meat in the dish 3 times, each occasion they said they would remedy but kitchen never addressed the issue. I left hungry.
Don’t come here if you expect meat in your curry!

Superb. Great quality food with great portion sizes. I ate here twice on a trip to Geelong and well worth the money. Great staff as well.

One of the best Thai restaurant in Geelong. The food is delicious. The service is friendly. It’s definitely a must to go if you want some Thai food in the Geelong area. They are generally very busy so it’s worth to book ahead.

What a pleasure to have wonderful food, good pricing and excellent service. The service was very quick the restaurant very busy for a Monday evening so was very impressed because the food was tasty, and hot straight from the kitchen. The staff were very friendly and attentive even though they were busy. Will certainly recommend this place

Always been a fan of the pork larb & curry puffs at this venue. Well we ordered the famous pad Thai and it was a massive mistake.
It was so so sweet you wouldn’t know it wasn’t dessert, we have lived in Thailand & usually love pad Thai but this wasn’t even close to what we had tasted before.
I asked the dark haired server after a single mouthful if we could have another dish, or just remove off the bill even a pad Thai without so much off the sweet sauce that was added, as we couldn’t stomach, she pretended she didn’t understand English even though when we ordered she understood every word.
We proceeded to pay for dinner which was full price & she continued to pretend like she didn’t understand. It’s very poor customer service, I work in the industry and would never treat a guest in this manner.

Not only that they serve plastic straws in every cup of soft drink & are still using single plastic bags. What a disgrace to our environment.

We will never go back, after the poor service and worst pad Thai that they recommend to order.

Small but nice and friendly Thai restaurant. Great food and extremely tasty. Good service. Very reasonably priced.

Food was fresh and delicious. Will certainly return. Would suggest that if you don't have a booking get there around 6.00 to secure a seat.

Wonderful place to dine in or takeaway. Great quality Thai food, fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. Have been here many times

Went for lunch yesterday with my partner. I had green curry and my partner had the spicy fried rice with red and green curry paste. The food was filling and very delicious. Would love to visit again.

Food was amazing but service was very bad. The waiters were after closing the restaurant and hurrying us to eat fast though we reached at 8: 30 and it's mentioned on the site that the restaurant is open untill 9: 30.

By far the best Thai restaurant in geelong, fantastic service, authentic food and a great atmosphere. BYO wine only. Affordable meals all round and a great experience every time!

I was in Geelong for the weekend and thought I would give this place a try, Very impressed with how good the food was with many options available. Nice relaxing atmosphere and staff were amazing! Definitely will go back for some more Thai food next time I'm in Geelong

This bad review is for ordering over the phone, what a nightmare, they can't hear you and keep asking "what did you say" and say "your phone is bad"

This happens every-time, soooooo annoying!

I have an iPhone xs and the same thing happened with a Samsung S9, so it is not "my phone".

Please fix your phone, get one that is louder so your staff can hear, I won't order again until you do!

Change your phone, let me know and i will change this review and post 5 stars.

The idea of ordering takeaway is for it's easiness, not a phone battle with your trying staff, to whom i apologise to for my frustration.

The food is great BTW
