This was the very best Thai we have both ever had. We hear a lot of people claiming that Canberra is dull, boring, lifeless and has nothing to offer. Well here is a great place to start, good atmosphere, prompt service and very reasonably priced meals that were well portioned and served timely. Our recommendation is the ginger prawns and... More

Have eaten at both Lemon Grass Thai Restaurants in Canberra (City and Woden), both are excellent. What I particularly like is the freshness of the food whether it is eat in or takeaway. Particular favourites are; entree - money bags and chicken peanut sauce stick, and mains - pad thai and beef chilli and cashews. But there is plenty to... More

I'm not sure what happened to this eatery, it was great 3 years ago however.... My wife and I were looking forward to a rare night out to an old favourite restaurant without the kids. The service upon arrival was terrible, basically show yourself to your table.My beer glass smelt like stale dishwasher water and that was only the beginning.... More

if you are looking for the best Thai food in Canberra Civic centre look no further than Lemon Grass Thai. This place has been a thriving business for years and once you have eaten there you will know why. As a frequent business traveller to Canberra I usually eat here once a week and can recommend it for tasty food... More

I love this place!! I've tried nearly all the Thai restaurants in Canberra and none of them even come close to Lemon Grass' Pad Thai! So delicious and fresh. Little bit pricey, but you're paying for quality. The restaurant is nice but usually booked out so I always opt for them to deliver. Definitely recommend to all lovers of Thai... More

Someone already mentioned consistency and you are guaranteed a god quality meal, at a reasonable price, served to you by a friendly smiling young Thai every time you go. If more than two of you make sure you book as this is one of Canberra's busiest restaurants, always has a crowd and Thur, Fr, Sat nights you can be lucky... More
