Mother's Day dinner, late same day booking, staff could not be friendlier or more attentive. Children's meals ready inside of 15 minutes even though the restaurant was busy, green curry requested extra hot was exactly that served with a generous portion of succulent and fresh mussels and prawns, panang curry mild yet bursting with flavor, pad Thai perfect for kids....

Such a great place definitely worth trying! The service is warm friendly and efficient. I would recommend the satay chicken for entree. The food was all quite spicy but it was so delicious with amazing flavors! It has made me a fan of Thai food again as I have been turned off by a few places in the past. We... More

This was a bit of a nothing outing. We were put in a corner near a pile of linen and seemed to getting ushered along to finish our rather ordinary looking and tasting food. I often saw lots of people in there - I am still puzzled as to the actual attraction to the place. Maybe its all in the... More

I love Thai food and the big test in my opinion is how good the Pad Thai is. It was yummy - contained a mixture of chicken and prawns. The mixed entree was presented nicely too. Star of Siam was very busy and by the time we left, the restaurant was full. Lovely needlework pictures on the walls to which... More

Service / Food Sucks !!!!!!! The decor is the only thing good , Pathetic service , bad manners and they made the food unbelievably hot on purpose Exceptionally Rude staff, the waitress couldn't explain what was in the food properly and we asked to make it not hot, and she made it extra hot on purpose.

As regulars we always find the service good and the food excellent. I was however very disappointed due to the fact that they always take your phone number for bookings, we booked for last Christmas evening and they had closed their restaurant due to the "chef being sick". We were en route to Asia the following day so staying in... More

I was a Star of Siam regular when I last lived in Launceston and having recently returned to the city, I jumped at the chance to eat here again. I can happily report that this place is still the best for Thai in the Launceston area. Consistently great food, friendly and helpful service and just a wonderful atmosphere. If the... More

Reasonable meal but compared to Thai restaurants in Melbourne Star of Siam needs to make more effort and have those beautiful Thai salad, noodles and soups. Too much deep fried food. More
