First picture looks like micky mouse anyways prices were kind of expensive for what it’s worth, the food was interesting because everything is vegetarian so we had a lot of tofu and other stuff. Deep fried but very oily, serving sizes were quite tiny. Found the dishes to be quite dry but idk

Went for dinner and ordered- Mi goreng 1J Crispy bean curd 1D Soft rice noodle 2J Steam buns 9A Curry puff 3A Poached Chinese broccoli Plain rice. We enjoyed the Crispy Bean Curd 1D with Rice, Soft Rice Noodle 2J, and Curry Puff 3A the most. However, the Mi Goreng was like spaghetti, and the Steam Buns 9A were sweet, so did not prefer them. The Poached Chinese Broccoli was particularly disappointing, with an overly salty and strongly flavored sauce. Absolutely, when we go there next time, we can confidently order our favorite dishes. The best thing about this restaurant is that all the menus are vegetarian, so there's no need to hesitate when choosing what to order. We arrived at 5 PM when it was empty, but by 6 PM, all the tables were full, the place was crowded, and people were waiting outside.

this is one of the best vegetarian restaurants in the entire country… the fact i don’t live in sydney so can’t come here regularly is genuinely heartbreaking. if you are in sydney and can only go to one restaurant make it this place because it’s AMAZING. everything about it is so perfect! i dream of mother chu’s vegetarian kitchen

We’ve been coming to Mother Chu’s for years now and it’s always a great dining experience. Tonight we had the steamed dim sims for the entrée, followed by the golden mushroom and soy sheet roulades in black pepper sauce. Both were delicious – the food is cooked fresh. We love the friendly staff and the beautiful Chinese calligraphy on the walls. Highly recommended for vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike!

The first time I came here I wasn't impressed with the food, but a few years have passed since then and I've now returned based on hearing good things. The food was lovely and the service was friendly. My friends also really enjoyed the food too. I will definitely come back and would recommend to others. Plenty of gluten free options too which is great!

Taste : The Japanese course was well-seasoned and delicious. Atmosphere : The quiet atmosphere and open kitchen give it an authentic feel, just like in Japan. Service : The staff were quite friendly. Overall : The only downside is the high price, but it's worth visiting for a special occasion.

The taste and quality of the food was amazing. Simple, authentic, and delicious. The service was excellent. It's a little expensive, but well worth the price.

I have been here twice for different celebrations this year. It was nice experiencing the slight visual differences yet the same tastebud journey. The staff were friendly and they introduced some dry sake for rice wine beginner like myself. I only got a bit tipsy, so I got to enjoy and remember the flavour and texture of the dishes. I love the dining experience here and am looking forward to more celebrations.

One of the best Japanese experiences I've had. The food was simple and incredibly delicate with huge flavour. I have given 4 stars but they would have received 5 if the drinks menu was a bit better. I will be going again soon!

Great food - good quality meat for reasonable price. Really really good service - very attentive and smart, says a lot these days. Unprompted side dish refill. I used to come here years ago and will likely frequent this place again.

I wasn’t a fan of the 2-hour time limit, but I understand why they have it. The wait for the pork set took a bit longer than expected, and the prices were slightly on the higher side. The soft drinks and alcoholic beverages were also more expensive compared to typical Korean BBQ places.

I was recommended this place by my Korean friend, and oh my, it’s amazing! This is the best Korean BBQ I’ve ever tried in Sydney—so tasty, and the prices are fair too. I highly recommend it to everyone, especially meat lovers. The food here is incredible, beyond words! Unfortunately, when I visited, there was construction in front of the restaurant, and I got a bit lost. But it’s definitely worth trying!

The family’s go to Korean restaurant whenever we’re in the North! Have been back many times and always a treat. Staff here are lovely too - big shoutout to the always friendly and smiling Sanjok 🙌

Great authentic Thai food at affordable prices and good value. Pad Thai was very nice and has a bit of a kick of spice. Tom yum fried rice with chicken was very nice too, punch of flavour. Chicken wings were ok.

8/3/25 - 3 stars One of many Thai restaurants in the Sydney CBD. It's slightly better furnished and decorated than other casual eateries in Thai town, but, still mostly casual. Service is quite ordinary. Food has decent flavours but nothing amazing. Value for money is also just ok especially since plain rice is $4.3 per bowl. They do offer 5% off for cash. Overall, not that good but not that bad either. Value is a little poor. Definitely could eat thai for cheaper elsewhere Papaya salad: A, 7/10. Flavours ok though $20 Crispy pork prik khing: S, 8/10. A bit crunchy yet chewy. $25 Pad thai duck: A, 7/10. Mid, $26 Pineapple fried rice: B, 6/10. Not worth $26 for sure Thai basil fried fish: S, 8/10. Pretty good with fillet portions fried separately so no bones. $36 is steep Red curry duck: S, 8/10. Very aromatic though perhaps a bit too much coconut. $26 for a little bowl though.

Had an amazing meal at Home Thai Restaurant! While they forgot our order initially, once we reminded them, they offered us free soft drinks as an apology. We kindly declined since we don’t drink soft drinks, but it was a nice gesture. Despite the wait, the food was absolutely delicious, and we quickly forgot about the delay once we started eating. Highly recommen

HomeThai in Sydney CBD offers flavorful dishes with a pleasant atmosphere, both earning a solid four out of five. While the food is great, I’ve experienced Thai cuisine that stands out a bit more. The service, though friendly, could be more streamlined, as ordering at the counter and catching staff attention during peak hours can be a challenge. One downside is that the toilet is not part of the restaurant and can be a bit hard to reach. Overall, it’s a good choice for a casual Thai meal in the heart of the city.
