Tom Phat Restaurant reviews
61Poor service from the employees. I saw them humiliating a delivery man at the restaurant. That was horrible.
I personally have high standard for Asian food, so I won’t go back and don’t recommend. The presentation of the dishes was quite awful. The salt and pepper squid tasted bland, squid wasn’t fresh. Roti wasn’t the authentic one. The curry with egg noodles was so-so as well. Atmosphere and service were good though. If they’re charging half of the price they do now, I would say everything makes more sense.
Think this place use to be better. The quality of their main meals has changed over time and not as great unfortunately. Dumplings are still great though!
I loved the atmosphere. I was so delighted when I arrived to the restaurant. It was like magic
It was the first time I ate there, the waitress was so kind to explain the dishes for me and give me some recommendations. Everything was delicious!
I'd definitely go back to have dinner again
We were a table of 8 with some tricky dietary requests. Awesome waiter put together a wonderful menu that meant everyone had a great meal. Delicious food and more than we could finish! Particularly recommend the kung pao cauliflower.
Two friends and l ate here this evening. We were asked if we wanted drinks whilst choosing the food. My friend ordered a cocktail and l requested a g&t. The cocktail, which you would hope has actually been made (as opposed to a mix) arrived in good time. My g&t failed to appear. Leaving a polite amount of time between each enquiry, we asked our waitress and another, three or four times if it was coming. It was always just on it’s way. I ordered a beer to have with my food. Still no g&t until after we had started eating.
We encountered Travis behind the bar at the till when we went to pay. We told him about the almost absent gin and his response was to ask if l’d drunk it! I told him l’d had it for pudding as it was so late. His apology was dripping with insincerity and he excused this dreadful lack of basic service by saying it was his first day back and that my g&t order hadn’t gone through. If that were the case, how come my friends cocktail arrived? Travis, your performance this evening was hardly a masterclass in customer service.
We paid and left happy in the knowledge that there is plenty of inviting competition all around therefore no need to ever return.
The food was delicious, thankyou chef (s)
Tom Phat came highly recommended by a friend, however I was ultimately disappointed.
Although the customer service and ambiance was good, the food was somewhat lacking - the coconut rice was overly wet and soggy, the cashew nut stirfry lacked flavour, though the chiang mai and prawn dumplings were both good.
With an abundance of good Thai spots in Brunswick, I'm not sure I'd go back.
The food is average and somewhat overpriced. The music is annoying and verging in being too loud for a comfortable conversation. The staff are pleasant and helpful.
Good service, nice interior, food was good but the coconut rice was something different, great taste and i have never eten before. Recommend to try.
Great dinner! Service was seamless, I would very much recommend it. Dietary requirements clearly explained on the menu
Nice food and good atmosphere. Only thing is they have the lights very low. It's hard to see the menu and food when it comes out.

Wonderfully delicious food, flavourful Pad Thai, scrumptious coconut rice, crispy pork belly, cold beer, and crisp veggies. Loved it. A touch on the pricey side so not an everyday meal. Noticed a LOT of uber eats orders being fulfilled which surprised me given the price point. The revolving door of uber eats drivers right at your table did kill the vibe a touch unfortunately.
$20 evening special with the pork belly was really nice. Fix the front door that does not close (super annoying in winter with the cold air) and you get 5 stars.
Enjoyed a lovely meal. The beef rendang was so soft and delicious! The pork belly was great too but had a bit too much fat. The hibiscus cocktail was so yummy. The portions were on the smaller side and fairly dear. We ordered the Asian veggies and were really disappointed paying $12 for a plate of small chopped stems of bok choy.
Had a fantastic experience at Tom Phat Brunswick. The food was delicious and the team were so friendly and attentive. Our waiter specifically was so welcoming and helped us decide what to order. I would definitely the Xinjiang Lamb, so delicious. Would also recommend the chilli caramel pork belly, it was so good.
The most delicious Thai food I have had in awhile. We went for dinner (3 adults) at about 8pm on a week night. Lucky we had a booking as it was quite full. We ordered 2 starters (corn fritters and fried chicken) then 2 mains (green curry and pork belly) with rice and roti to share. Over enough food and really delicious. I wished I had hard to take the extra dipping sauces home. A gem in Brunswick
Really really good Thai! We did not have a Res and got seated on Saturday night for four people.great service and the food again was amazing.will return.thanks!
Great South East Asian fusion restaurant, that serves up dishes with flavours that pack an punch <3
Their quality has been consistently amazing.
The beef rendang has always been my go-to, and they never disappoint.
Takeaway dinner @Tom_Phat for some South East Asian inspired fare. The quality is second to none, I really enjoyed the different dishes.
Roti with Satay Sauce - roti needed a little more cooking in some spots but was very tasty and thoroughly enjoyed with the deep flavours of the satay. Each version differs and this is excellent.
Pad see ew - stir fried soy sauce noodles with egg, greens, and tofu (can opt for a protein). Wow, amazing flavours, spicy, sumptuous. I can see why this is popular.
Rendang beef - they've taken a twist on this by wrapping it in roti. The beef rendang is absolutely fantastic! Melt in your mouth tender beef with a deep flavour that only rendang can offer and the curry is so so flavoursome. The awesome thing about potatoes and curry is that the potatoes are like a sponge and just absorb all that flavour.
Vietnamese Yellow Curry - with braised chicken, root vegetables, coconut, lemongrass and a serve of Jasmine rice. I really enjoyed this, full of flavour, creamy, a spicy, fragrant coconut, with the rice absorbing the flavours.
