Visited for the first time for a takeaway. The portion size is good and the decor is very pleasing. The vegetarian pad thai was delicious. Also order the aromatic ginger stir fried vegetables with jasmine rice, which was yum. Nice thai in Birkenhead.
Visited this place a while back and absolutely loved their drunken spaghetti. It is so flavour full and one of the best Thai place for vegetarian dishes I've found so far. I did also order the vegetarian summer rolls which I was not a huge fan of, but their galngal coconut milk soup was absolutely delicious as well. If this place wasn't super far from where I live it would be on my frequent visit list.
This is the third trip to Primerose- and I find it a consistently good restaurant. The duck curry in particular was mind-blowing! I also enjoyed the coconut milk galangal soup. And I always love the decor of this place! The service is friendly as well. Highly recommended! Portion sizes might look small but the food is extremely filling. Will be back!
Lovely little restaurant with exceptionally good food. The price was fantastic for 4 people and staff are so nice. What a great find. Will definitely be back!
Came here before lockdown, and enjoyed my experience. They had a really cool mirror which made the restaurant look double the size of the actual restaurant. Each seat had a really cute napkin folded like a flower - which is definitely fitting for the name of the restaurant.
I wanted to use zomato gold - but they needed to be a little bit more specific in what dishes were excluded from zomato which got a bit confusing due to a slight language barrier but we got there in the end! (After multiple order changes and the waitress getting slightly impatient with us).
Food wise - everything was great! My favourite was definitely the curry puffs.
Delicious Thai food I. Birkenhead. Didn't know the restaurant was there until recently but it's well worth it. Ordered the chicken yellow curry and it was delicious! High5yl recommend. Will be back again
Awesome place to dine in. Love the atmosphere, friendly staff member. Highly recomended!!!
A cozy little Thai restaurant. Friendly staff with a clean and quite dining environment.
The chicken tom yum soup was well flavored and not overly spicy. The vermicelli roll was refreshing but the roll had too much lettuce and not enough noodles.
The duck with lychee curry was excellent, the duck was tender and flavorful, the curry was creamy with a bit of fruity sweetness. The lamb massamun curry had a great flavor, however the lamb was slightly tough. The beef stir fry was also not that tender.
Moderate portions compared to the price. Overall great flavorings to the dishes, but some of the meat could be more tender.

We have been 2 or 3 times after finding them on Zomato. The food portion is not too big and not too small which is great. All the dishes we have tried have been delicious and comfortable dining area. Would definitely recommend Primerose Thai Cusine.
Food was yum and staff are friendly.
Went here for the first time on Father’s Day and we all loved it ☺️😋 the chicken green curry was hands down the best green curry I’ve ever had! None of the mains come with rice and the portions were smaller than all of the other Thai restaurants we’ve been to but other than that, we loved it and will definitely be back!
The restaurant was clean and well presented on arrival with a waterfall feature that created a lovely ambiance to match Selena Gomez and One Direction playing on TV. The mirror wall makes the room feel spacious while providing a simple means for a subtle $wag check.
We indulged in the signature 'Duck and Lychee Curry' and the 'Vegetarian Red Curry' both with rice and a roti to die for. Both meals were large portions which satisfied the munchies and still left us wanting more.
Service was great and being a Zomato Gold Partner really tickled my pickle... will be back for a BYO in the near future.
Nice environment and service. Food was good. I forgot to take photos, but it’s quite nice to have dinner for two people. we choose the sweet and sore beef, and ginger chicken.
The red duck curry is the star of the show. Unbelievably tasty - high-quality ingredients, lots of flavour, good portion size that usually covers me for dinner and leftovers for the next day's lunch (much to the envy of my coworkers).
Visited on a Thursday night - service was pretty efficient. We ordered pad thai and chicken cashew and they tasted very delicious! Not too sweet or salty, i found them just right. Downside is the portion tend to be smaller compared to other thai restaurants. For $19 a dish we expect a decent portion but I can’t complain when i’m getting 1-for-1 with Zomato Gold. :) will be back if i’m around the area.
Drawn here as gold members. Been twice now. Came back the second time due to just how good the duck curry is. The second time was a smidgen too sweet in sugar than the first time. Lovely staff and a great setting with a brilliant feature wall / mirror to have the sense and feel of a large restaurant. We will be booking ourselves in again
Fantastic food. Penang Curry is beautiful. Very reasonably priced and highly recommend. Will definitely be coming back. Typical Thai place, simple decor, all about the food
This restaurant had Great food great service would definitely recommend and visit again. We had the Penang curry and duck salad and would order both again
Really enjoyed my meal the yellow curry was so good lots of flavour also the garlic pepper stir fry and the cashew nut stir fry was also good definitely would go back to this place highly recommended very tasty.
Best chicken garlic pepper stir fry Ive had in a while . Plus the yellow chicken curry was so good . Recommend this place , 5 out of 5 service .
Primrose Thai cuisine has very rich curries with very savoury flavors. We tried roasted duck curry and Pad Thai noodles. Both dishes were amazing and the restaurant is brilliantly designed to feel spacious. The age old technique of using a giant mirror to produce the illusion of space is used but not in any gaudy way. It's a nice place to be at, for having some good Thai cuisine.

My Partner and I went to this restaurant for an early dinner, after work, on a weekday.
The place is very neat, tidy and well-decorated.
Had veg green curry and egg fried rice, for only $19.
Already been there twice in the past one month, as the green curry is amazing!
Thank You to Zomato Gold that we could avail 1+1 offer on the food.
Literally the best place for Thai in Auckland! We love their food. Cosy little restaurant, polite staff, quick service, delectable food, it's just perfect. If I had to be picky, I'd say the portion sizes could be a bit bigger, but otherwise would highly recommend.
My experience was very similar to other recent feedback. The curry was very nice. The seafood dish that we ordered was a little too sweet. The chicken satay skewer was okay. The staff was friendly enough.
Great food, the dishes were balanced, authentic and reasonably priced. We had the cashew chicken, tropical rice ginger sauce chicken and fried rice. Everything was tasteful and delicious.
Really comforting food, full of flavour! Restaurant was very cosy and staff were very friendly! Will pay a visit next time I’m over the shore! ZOMATO GOLD APPROVED!
We had the green curry with beef and roti, and the coconut milk soup (vegetarian). I loved how flavoursome the dishes were, and how they were abundantly seasoned with dill and ginger. The menu may be pricy but the food and pretty decor makes up for it. A perfect place for a date.
Really delicious food that offers variety and a point of difference. Is reasonably priced too! Will continue to eat here. Thoroughly recommend the cashew chicken stirfry!

Fabulous place for dinner! The Lamb Massaman curry was delicious and all our starters were great too! Would definitely go back there for more and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Would highly recommend. This is my Thai food go to place. Every item I’ve tried so far of the menu was great. Always quick and friendly service. Try the aromatic ginger stirfry with chicken, and absolute delight.
My new go to in Birkenhead. Staff were extremely catering and the food was amazing, could have done with a bit more spice but I didn't ask for it so can't complain. Will definitely be back
This is our 2nd visit during our vacation. Authentic and they have a fantastic priced lunch menu. The Thai food is delicious. we'll be back again!
Last night was my first visit to Primerose for dinner. I was quite impressed with the place even though it is quite small and sometimes a bit hard to walk around the tables.
I ordered the chicken green curry and it was fantastic. Also ordered as a Starter the Chicken Satay with peanut butter and it was one of the best I ever had.
The waitress was very friendly too. The food took a bit long to come but it was a minor thing as I was the first to arrive on a Friday night but after 20 minutes there was pretty much no seat available.Well, It was one of the best choices of restaurant I made recently and definitely will come back to try other dishes.
Fantastic authentic thai cuisine. Large portions and great range of options to cater or all tastes. Friendly attentive staff and great service. Freshly prepared meals served in a timely manner. Great atmosphere with the feeling of plenty of
space with the full wall mirror. Small and intimate dining. Pleasure to celebrate my mothers 77th tonight. Highly recommend it a must try. Thankyou guys I will return.... soon.
Definitely recommend Primerose! beautiful food and lovely service. Best thai red curry I've had in ages will definitely be going back, also tried the pad thai great flavors! :)
By far the best Thai restaurant we tried on the Shore :) our favs are pad thai and panang curry. Lovely staffs and relaxing ambiance. Looking forward to try more of their dishes (if i can resist the temptation of pad thai next time...)
This little thai restaurant has a beautiful ambience with a rose theme. Plenty of vegetarian options available. Entree- tofu and mushroom satay with yummilicious peanut sauce.Coconut rice was absolutely delicious with Cashew nut Stir fried tofu n veggies.A must go for Thai lovers
Service is good, waitresses are authentic and the the food tastes very close to the real thing. The ambiance and the decor are lovely. Definetely recommended.
Delicious food! Will definitely return here. Food was Made fresh and I know this as we asked for vegetarian options. Lovely restaurant and good price. Staff were helpful and friendly
Awesome place, excellent food, great service, the chicken satay is amazing. Curries are really good. Everything is good. One off my favourite places to go to, highly recommend.
We have walked past many times so thought we must pop in for a Friday night dinner. Now we wish that we had done that sooner. Great Thai food with good service. Can recommend the chicken satay, Pad Thai and duck curry. Best duck curry in Birkenhead. Even the teenage son is raving about the Pad Thai. We will definitely be back.
Decided to try this place in Birkenhead-small and cute decor but was after a hot Thai curry so went for takeaway.
Great service though they did question my request for Thai hot for both curries-panang and green curry! Glad I did ask for it hot as it has a nice spice and though the addition of providing me fresh chillies to make it hotter was a nice touch. Was recommended to get the roti and normal rice.
Definitely will get takeaways from here! Now I'm also keen to try the drunken spaghetti which is apparently extra spicy!
I came here for my birthday dinner with 13 other people. The restaurant staff catered well to the large number and were very accommodating for the two guests with a vegan diet. The food was tasty and looked lovely too. A great night.
The best Thai I have eaten for a long time! Stumbled across this restaurant on TripAdvisor could not locate on Google Maps (recommend you add your restaurant on Google)
The food was clean and incredibly tasty, just how you imagine the best Thai food.
I highly recommend you try this gem of you haven't already.
#thoughroughlyimpressed
great service lovely atmosphere... i love love the mirror feature in their restaurant it gives and amazing feel of space ..the waitress is very polite and we look forward to making this our local
Our new go to place to eat! We've been here countless times and food never fails to amaze. Each dish is so flavourful and good portions too. Some of the best Thai food Ive ever had 😁 Would highly recommend for everyone to try it out! Im sure you will love it too
Best Thai in Birkenhead- such awesome service, delicious food and we left so full it hurt! We will be back😄 thanks for the great experience On Fire.
Love it! We make it a fortnightly catch up here and it's great. Haven't had anything we haven't enjoyed so far (the Tom Kha is especially good) Fantastic staff too 😊
There is a saying, dont judge a book by its cover..... that seems to apply here. Walk past this store, the picture on their menu doesnt seem appealing....(the menu design and photo taking needs more kick) However when you scoop the first spoon into your mouth....The taste was unbelieveably delicious! Had Pad kee mao & Mussaman Curry.
Waitress is very friendly and offered the recommendation for the best experience: chicken with kee mao & beef with curry.....
Overall, recommended to come and try. P.S. if you dare, try Thai Spicy😄
Only been here a couple of times but the service has been really friendly and efficient. The food is great and reasonably priced. I haven't eaten in the restaurant only takeaway but I wouldn't go anywhere else on the shore now for Thai. The restaurant never seems busy so I hope word gets around soon that this is a good place to go :)
Had a great meal at this new Thai restaurant in Birkenhead. Absolutely beautiful food. 8 of us went & all of us enjoyed it. Great service too, really nice helpful friendly waitress. Looking forward to going back again.
Do not underestimate this place. Staff were soooo accomodating and very nice. We were looking for a place to eat and wanted to try something new then we saw this place. It was around 4.20pm at the time, and we thought they were already open but dinner time opens at 5pm. So instead of turning us away and making us wait for half an hour, they just asked us to wait for 15 more minutes and then we can come in. How amazing is that? The food did not disappoint either. I know that Thai food is almost always spicy so when I ordered the green thai curry I was preparing myself but the lady said that their food there is not spicy, only mild. ~ So another tick again on my check list. (I'm just not sure if you could request your food to be spicy if you want?) The Pad thai was the bomb! Oh, and did I forget to mention, for $2.50 you get unlimited rice? ... They don't try to hide it either, staff actually comes to you and asks if you want more! (Double thumbs up)
Definitely deserves a 5 star for me (A rare occurence) and I shall definitely recommend and take my friends here next time. Keep up the good work guys!
P.S. I love the set up of this place! The mirror made the place look so big, I was surprised to see my reflection when we came in, lol!
By far the best thai restaurant in the northshore! Always go here now as have friendly staff and amazing food. Would definitely recommend to all.
What a fantastic find and a great addition to the neighbourhood. The turmeric chicken soup was fantastic and something we have never experienced here or in Thailand. Everything else was just lovely - noodles, pad king and pad pre wan, excellent service and highly recommended. Have a lovely holiday guys if we don't see you before you go. Say Hi to Thailand for us :)

Dropped by this place today thinking it may be just another Thai takeaway yet to be surprised by the almost-fine-dinning level of experience: course-by-course dish serving, very polite and sweet waitering and great entrees (Rice Crackers is fantastic - there are more pieces served than showed in the photo as it was taken half of eating already). Will definitely come back.
Love this new Thai option in Birkenhead. Have tried all the others in the area and nothing beats it. Coming from Melbourne where we had an ambundance of quality Thai food options this has finally met those standards. Have only ever got takeaway but on all 3 occasions have loved it - especially my husband who is a fussy eater. Have tried the prawn pad thai, chicken red curry and the beef masaman. All great and such big quantities! Can't see their phone number on here though... 09 4180 555.
Been here three times now. Overall it's fantastic, and would come again. The food is wonderful, they have delicious vegetarian options, and friendly staff. I would recommend the pad ginger.
Food was yummy, only disappointment was the level of service, they were busy. Otherwise a great meal out
This place is quite sort out. Really nice atmosphere and the service was awesome. Definitely going to go back again. Would love to go when it gets dark because it will give a different vibe. Overall food was really nice and i must say not too pricy.
Nice place to come for an authentic Thai meal.
Suitable for small groups and couples.
Meals to suit everyone
Yummy Thai dishes. We have green curry, yellow curry, stir fry and Pai Thai. They are all very delicious. But the size of the dish is pretty small. The main dish doesn't included rice, need to order separately.
The restaurant is not that big, maximum 30 seats. No parking available.
Great value for money and very tasty food my kids love it.
LOVE THIS LITTLE CUTE RESTAURANT! Amazing food and such lovely customer service, friendly staff!
Delicious Thai food in Birkenhead! The duck lychee curry was absolutely amazing, such an unusual combination that worked. The pad thai was comparable to the ones I've tried in Thailand.
Tasty well priced food. Recommended
Every curry we ordered was super yummy! Generous servings and yummy Coconut rice! Numnum!! Roti a great addition :-)
Really wonderful service and delightful atmosphere, staff really pleasant to relate with and very helpful. Will be our new go too.
Authentic thai veg summer rolls with cashews and tofu tom yum soup is out of the world! Sorry pics next time as it was take away.
Great experience, food was really tasty, fresh
Incredible restaurant. I have very western taste buds and the food is delicious. I would definitely recommend the money bags, the best ones I’ve ever had. Staff are friendly and the restaurant has a cute fish tank.
The food is always up to par here. It's been 5 years now and they still do maintain their quality.
Absolutely incredible food at a great price. The owners are lovely and the restaurant is beautiful. Would return here again and again. Highly recommend the money bags!
Food is consistently good with a sizeable quantity. Go to Thai place if I have a craving.
