Gala Thai Restaurant

This is a beautiful little restaurant. Thai is my favourite cuisine and as a result I can’t get enough of this place. I have tried their Pad Thai and their special of the month pork belly. Both absolutely delicious and of high quality. The waitress that served me was very friendly. Highly recommended to all that love good food that is full of flavour.

Bad service, tried to press the call waiter and no one came, asked them to turn on the heater and they didn’t do. Pad thai and the massaman curry are not worth the price (curry is so bland). Duck curry is really yummy though.

My favourite Thai in Brisbane. Yummy food funny staff members. Very reasonably priced

Loved the tofu and e saan steak! Owner is so lively and jovial that you would immediately realise why regulars keep coming back often. Support local 💜

We over ordered because everything sounded amazing, and we ate it all because it taste so good! The restaurant was really busy when we visited, and the service was still prompt, friendly and efficient. Food came out quickly and was exceptional. I already want to go back again, and we only went last night!

We had a pleasant evening dining alfresco on a warm Brisbane summer night. This place is clearly popular with the locals, with most outside tables being occupied and in addition, a steady stream of take-away patrons queuing up outside. Four of us dined and we ordered a selection of starters and main courses, including dumplings, spring rolls, chicken karaage, massaman beef curry and two serves of coconut rice. And to wash it all down a few bottles of refreshing Tiger Lager and a glass of red wine for my wife. No complaints about the food; it was all fresh and tasty and served in decent portions. The dumplings and spring rolls were the perfect way to start the evening. I liked the contrast between the soft dumplings and crispy spring rolls. The chicken karaage was succulent and tender, wrapped in a nice crunchy batter. The massaman beef curry was melt-in-your-mouth tender and soaked in a fragrant and aromatic yellow curry and sprinkled with peanuts and shallots. Ordering is done via individual tablets on the tables, and that worked fairly smoothly once we got the hang of it, although given the amount of sit-in diners and takeaway orders, service was a tad slow and erratic, with some meals coming before others. I guess this is one of the downsides to electronic ordering, as there didn’t seem to be an ability to accumulate orders before hitting the button, so the result was that one order was placed and the dish was brought to the table, another order, another dish brought to the table, and so on. Each diner has their own tablet, which added to the confusion. But in the end, to be fair to these guys, everybody got their meals in good time and no-one went hungry. Our total bill for four came to what I thought was a hefty $140 for five drinks (the Tiger Lager was supposedly on special at $5 ea, so that should have reduced the bill), two starters and four mains. The toilets are in the next door building and you need to grab the key from the front desk. They were clean and well provisioned, although the key only opened the female cubicle, which didn’t really matter as it’s a single cubicle anyway. The ambience was super casual, laid back and relaxed and full marks to the hardworking owner and her staff for creating a pleasant dining atmosphere and serving high quality food in generous portions.

All good quality of Thai dishes! It was best Thai food I have had so far! My family enjoyed and I will come back to enjoy foods here again! Thank you for good balance of Thai foods!

OMG! Best laksa soup (vegetable & tofu) I had for a long time. Beautiful flavours, fresh & crunchy vegetables, tofu was perfect made crispy outside - soft inside. Fresh bean sprouts on the side. So comforting. Ordered thru Uber eats, definitely going back dine in.

Great food, better than the average Thai. Less sweet, more interesting flavours. Really good range of veg/vegan and GF options. Fresh, crisp veges. Coconut rice is spot on, beautiful and fluffy, huge serve. Really nice people too.

One of the best Thai restaurants in Brisbane. Decent portion size and attentive staff members.( Thai Steak salad, Chicken satay, Pad Thai were amazing ).
