β β β β β We came in off the street and didnβt know if theyβd have room for us, but nothing was a problem. Beautiful surroundings, just the right level of light for everyone to look their best. Attentive but unobtrusive service. Our food came quickly. We had the combination entree: it was the nicest selection of Vietnamese/ Malaysian/ Thai nibbles Iβd had in a long time. Shared a Massaman curry with bowls of rice. The flavour was excellent. A yummy mango lassi each and done. The wine list was wonderful and I look forward to sampling some in future. Next time we need to go there when weβre a bit hungrier so we can try more of the menu. Weβll be back thatβs for sure.

β β β β β I've seen other similar reviews showing there has been a decline in the lack of love in the cooking here. But Positives to start..The Guri puffs were AMAZING. The waitress that took my order, can't fault anything in her service.
ok.. Had a Maasam curry with beef and pork for $27.50. The meat was tough as shoes, thin, and the curry lacked flavour and seemed like it was watered down. Wrapped in gladwrap in a takeaway container also was a sign of how watery this dish was. Asked for a refund or a voucher and was met with the line it was always cooked like this and we follow recipes. I've been eating here for years and it's never been this average. Maybe public holidays make chefs care less?...
Ended up going to Long Thai takeaways at Miramar cutting... Same dish half price and the beef was melt.in your mouth slow cooked and done authentically.
Don't let the glitz and glam of these "to popular to fail" restaurants confuse you, $27.50 vs $15.50 for a discount and authenticity?...worth it.

β β β β β First time here went with family as they eat here regularly. Ordered Nasi Goreng which was superb the balance of flavor was great, fresh veg and pineapple with tomato and a decent serving for the price. Could definitely fill two people. Others ordered Singapore satay, garlic hot plate with rice, spring rolls, roti and peanut sauce to top it off with Chocolate sauce brownie. All were superb and good sizes. By personal preference I didn't care for the peanut sauce that came with the roti nor did I like the roti but that's my preference. Brownie was gorgeous however I'd Prob ask the chocolate sauce be added closer together or next to the brownie as you'll see from the photo I lost my sauce to the plate but what i managed to scoop up was delish. Great chefs or cooks here I was told there were two Thai ladies cooking until they hire a new chef. Great environment, nice and clean but I noticed it was a little too dark to read the menu so we got our mobile phs out to shine the light to read it as did the table next to us so perhaps increasing the lighting a bit might help. Pricing is fair however maybe for some dishes they are slightly overpriced like the brownie dish was $10. Probably bring the price down a little more but overall happy with the food. Definitely eat here again. Saw they could cater for larger groups, families and couples. Had a bit of problem trying to book online so rang closer to opening and managed to score a table but definitely book ahead if you want a table reservation.

β β β β β We always enjoy a stop at the Spirit House, usually on a movie date night at the Roxy. The food is good and hot, both in temperature and spice, and the service is always on point. The only improvement I would like to see is a smaller and more unique menu. I would invariably choose a menu of unfamiliar specialties over items Iβve seen on numerous other occasions

β β β β β Thus restaurant is now very poorly managed. Used to be great but with a booking for 10 people tonight the food came out eratically, service was exceptionally slow and attention from management was totally absent. Donβt know why what used to be such a great restaurant is now so poor but all 10 customers agreed tonight we wonβt bother returning.

β β β β β We had our family New Years party here with thirteen people. The food was sub-standard. The stir fry's we ordered had very little chicken in them and lot of vegetables. The Pad Thai was lacking any flavour and chicken. The Green Curry had no real favour either. The roti that we ordered was definitely the frozen packet ones and not made in a restaurant. I know this because we buy this at home too.
I have been to this restaurant with a three other friends a few weeks back and the food was great, but this time it was very sub-standard, I was embarrassed for recommending it to the family. Spending almost $700 and disappointed with the quality.
*** Definitely would not recommend this to anyone in future. ***
The food here is obviously not consistent. However, the atmosphere is very nice.

β β β β β I personally didn't like the food that I had ordered. The curries were either too watery or had too much peanut sauce. The restaurant ambience is good and is right at the heart of Miramar. The portion quantity was also average when you consider the cost.
