We went to the Krua Thai for the first time the other night as we both love authentic Thai food and are always willing to try new places, this restaraunt came with excellent reviews. Wow, we was not disappointed, fantastic, authentic Thai food that was prepared fresh and piping hot. Their own Krua sauces are a knock-out, spicy but not overpowering but simply delicious. We will definitely be going again, this is a hidden gem on the coast.

Best Thai we have found on the coast! So happy with every dish we ordered. Tasted fresh and delicious. Will 100% be returning.

We love your food. Always good veges and tender meat. Generous portions and the take aways are piping hot. The service is kind and warm. Thank you Thai Kura team b

Great food and friendly staff. The meat was perfectly cooked and crunchy, fresh vegetables. I liked the balance of flavours, not too oily, not too salty. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Our Thai friend brought us here — what a hidden gem in the middle of Buderim! We ordered so many dishes and loved every single one. The whole barramundi fish with fruit salad was absolutely amazing, the seafood larb was packed with flavour, and the fried rice and tom yum were both spot-on. Even the dessert was delicious! Everything tasted so authentic, just like real Thai food should. Please support this lovely local business and give their food a try — you won’t regret it!

Such incredible delicious Thai food. Our Pad Thai and Pad See Yew always bursting full in the takeaway containers.

We've been on the hunt for a good Thai restaurant since our favourite one in the area changed ownership. I think this place is it. Everything was sparkling clean to begin with. Pad see euw was next level. Their vermicelli salad with seafood is a must order one. Massamun curry was full of flavour. Portions are quite generous. Even the kids fried rice plate was so generous. Everything tasted very fresh especially the seafood. Veggies were washed thoroughly, no residues or dirt at all. We were very impressed and satisfied with everything. Service was attentive. One constructive feedback would perhaps for the Tomkha coconut soup: could put fresh galangal roots and lemongrass and other critical fresh ingredients to give it a further authentic taste. Thank you for the feast Krua Thai.
