I honestly cannot understand why this place has such a low overall review. I've been getting takeaways from Star Thai for years and they are always so fresh and delicious and incredible. Hands down the best authentic Thai place around the area. Definitely try it if you get a chance

We booked through the bookme voucher, We arrived and we were greeted with a friendly smile. 
The service was great. The meal portions were extremely generous and they even gave us a container to take the left overs home! Extremely happy overall!

I really enjoyed my experience at Star Thai. 

I went with my family and partner for my birthday and was not disappointed. We loved the quirky decor, it was slightly comical but it worked. There wasn't an amazing atmosphere but it was a rainy Thursday night and it's not in the busy part of Ponsonby, which is nice. 

I ordered the Tod Kra Tiam which is a chicken dish with a garlic & pepper seasoning with mixed veges. The meal was delicious, the flavours were well balanced and it was very filling. It was a bit confusing that rice had to be ordered separately for some meals, not sure if that's common or not. The food looked good as well.

I don't eat a lot of Thai so I can't say how it stands against other similar restaurants but everyone was happy with their meal and wasn't left hungry.

We came here last night with a grab one voucher.  We received really warm and attentive service, but we were the only ones in the restaurant.  My partner and I shared a mixed entrée, Pad Thai and a delicious chicken vege dish.  We thought the meals were tasty and well presented.  But what struck me was the small size of the meals - I was paying with a grab one voucher so I didn't mind, but I wouldn't have paid full price for the size of the meals.

Reading some of the previous reviews for Star Thai Restaurant, it didn't sound all that great. Still went ahead and purchased a deal vouchers for my family to dine out for the night and experience the restaurant for myself.
The experience I had with my family was very positive. The service was great, staff were very friendly and nice. On ordering the staff were very informative on the dishes in the menu and they even politely help my kids on what to order. The food came nice and hot (wasn't cold), not too spicy but tasty.
Our family have dine out in a lot of places from Thai to Indian, Chinese, Japanese, European restaurant and would rate this place one of the friendliest we have ever been. I would recommend Star Thai Restaurant to my family and friends.
We will dine back at Star Thai again in the near future and thanks for the great service.

We love this place, the food is absolutely delicious and fresh, staff are nice and the place is nice and cosy. I have been to many Thai restaurants in NZ in my opinion this one is one of the best. this is the place I recommended to my family and friends to dine in and they all have enjoyed the food and the service.

Hubby and I went there on a group on deal. I booked before reading the reviews so a little nervous. Staff were friendly, entree was generous and lovely. Mains were how we requested and yummy flavours dessert was also good.
House wine was good quality and didn't wait long for our meals.
If I had to say anything it would be that we weren't offered water which is strange at a Thai restaurant but we could have asked if we wanted it =)

I would return.

Visited Star Thai this week and was not disappointed, as it turns out the restaurant is under new ownership and I give full credit to the new Thai owners . Food was beautifully flavoured and importantly for me was not salty, there menu states no MSG...
Ambiance warm and attentive and service flowed nicely and could not be faulted. Restaurant was only half full on a Friday night but they were doing a roaring trade in takeaway and delivery orders going out the door one after the other, a sure sign that the food is good. This restaurant is centrally located, plenty of parking, I would definitely recommend my experience to others and be assured Star Thai I will be returning. Thank you for a very pleasant evening

Don't believe everything you read. We had takeaway from Star Thai tonight and it's the best we've had in Ponsonby. The portions are exactly the same as any other place in town and the food is delicious! Anyone who's judging a restaurant by the decor is clearly not interested in how the food tastes. Lets face it, there's very few Asian restaurants who have outstanding decor.

Don't believe these 1 star reviews, Star Thai is definitely the place to go for genuine Thai, the curry puffs are great as well as all the curries!

Pad Thai best in the neighbourhood, got my takeaway order wrong (soup) but no big deal as the one I got instead was delicious (but may pay to double check when at counter if it bothers you), very clean and well presented. Maître de coped well with the hassle and confusion that can be caused with voucher system. A+. Thanks Star Thai Ponsonby, am coming back.
