A decent choice for Thai food in Wellington. Located in a pretty busy location along Cuba Street so it's a hard place to miss out on. The interior is stunning, I like the centre "kiosk-like" space for service and other needs. Seating arrangement is spacious and isn't cramped given its restricted floor area.
The food portion is not on par with the price. It can be a little bigger for its price but the flavour is okay. I enjoyed the Thai milk tea a lot out of everything.
Staff service is good and very friendly. They notice a lot of the smaller things like refilling the water and asking how the food is; very considerate and a comfortable experience as a whole.
I definitely do recommend coming here for Thai flavours if you're in Wellington.
7/10
Great place to eat as can choose how spicy your food is and great range of cold drinks
Aroy is a very nice restaurant for a cheap feed and always very nice roti that hits the spot. Very quick service, however prices have increased over the years and portion sizes have dropped. But anyway I love the food from Aroy.
Can't recommend Aroy enough! The food is always outstanding (especially the crispy pork and bok choy), and comes out very fast. It is also very cheap. A great option for a quick meal
Cool Thai restaurant, Pad Thai and Green Curry was lit, very satisfied and full after sharing two dishes with my date 💕 When i asked for 2 bowls - she looked pissed - algoods - I get it - more bowls - more dishes to wash ~.~ Overall I loved it and would love to eat there more often if it was in Auckland too 🤙🏼👌🏼✌🏼
Very nice food here and the staff are friendly
Good portion sizes as well
I really enjoyed the green curry
Nice ambience and good location
Affordable, delicious food with short wait times. I really enjoy eating out here and highly recommend the BBQ pork. The menu is extensive with something for everyone.
Dined here after a recommendation from a fellow foodie!
Great atmosphere here, another popular dining spot it seems for Wellington. Ordered fried noodles and panang curry which was good dishes, decent portions and flavours were okay. I wouldn’t say it’s the most authentic that restaurant but decent flavours.
Great extensive menu on offer. If I’m feeling like Thai I would consider coming back.
I enjoy their pork skewers and prawn spring rolls from the entree menu. Friendly staff and quick service. Prices are pretty reasonable too..
Came here on a Saturday with my brother and his partner, who is Thai. The food is really good and you get a good portion especially for the price! I had the massaman curry with beef and I loved the flavor. It's also well presented and good ambience. I recommend the pork sausages as well. Everything tasted amazing
My family went here for dinner and then lunch because it was so amazing! I love how they have different spice levels to choose from. The green curry was out of this world btw, highly recommend! Even now, despite living in Sydney, we still think about the delicious food we had here at Aroy Thai in Wellington 🤤 Looking forward to the day I came back here
Had a 5 hour stopover at Wellington on my way to Auckland and a couple of friends took me here for lunch. We were so excited of our catch up so we forgot to take pictures of our food. Friend no. 1 got the Fried Chicken with ginger rice and he definitely loved it. Friend no. 2 got the Crispy BBQ pork and said that it kinda tasted like a Filipino dish but what added to the flovor was the thai dipping sauce. I ordered the Crispy pork with bok choy and loved how the pork was roasted tenderly. And I agreed with friend no. 2 that it tasted Filipino (we’re Filipinos btw).We also had the Wanton soup for sharing and we were happy that there is enough wantons for the 3 of us! Soup was tasty and served hot. We also loved the vibe inside.
Food is absolutely delicious and filling, staff are friendly and the service is fast, price is very good value for money. One of my most favourite places to eat, return here regularly, would recommend!
Stumbled across aroy as it is situated next to the infamous bucket fountain. The eatery is spacious and well lit. There is no table service, instead you have to order at the counter. We ordered the pad Thai, black pepper beef, fried noodles and pineapple chicken fried rice. The food arrived promptly and definitely tasted like authentic Thai street food and very good value for true quality and quantity. The black pepper beef came with the rice on the side which I liked and was presented beautifully on the plate. The veggies were cooked brought but still had the crunch. The kick of pepper was just right, not too intense or subtle and there was the perfect amount of sauce, enough to be absorbed by the rice and not be swimming in sauce. However, the pad Thai was quite average and there was nothing that made it amazing. The fried noodles and pineapple rice were delicious and just the right amount of seasoning.
Food: 4/5
Price: 4.5/5
Overall 4.5/5
Quick friendly service. Good prices, nice surroundings and very nice food. All good. Weve dined here several times and will definitely be back.
Happened to be here couple of times. Nice ambience, good food, good servings and price worthy!! Would definitely visit again and again for Thai food.
Cheap and cheerful! The place is done up so nicely! When you walk in, it doesn't feel like you are about to pay no more than $15 for a main, but you exactly what happens! The bbq pork dish is so good. Such a good amount of food and it is so fresh. Great Asian food if you feel like sitting in a place little bit more classier than the standard.
One of my favorite take out thai places! I usually go for the satay chicken but i’ve had a few other dishes and they were all amazing! very friendly staff, and I could not believe how fast it was! Went for lunch a few days ago and by the time I read over the menu on the wall my order was ready! very pleased!
Very cheap food and quick service. Good value for money. I would recommend the tofu pad Thai (if you like deep fried tofu). They have recently refurbished so the atmosphere is very good.
Great service!
Yummy food!
Cheap price!
Nothing more to say, it's worth a visit :)!
We had crispy noodles with chicken, and crispy noodles with pork. Plus roti and satay sauce. All very fresh and yummy, served very quickly by friendly staff.
Moved into the city and have a Thai wife so yep we eat Thai food. Aroy Thai is very good value for money and really tasty food. The menu has specials that are really nice and the cook/s take care and present tasty food consistently and the ladies who serve are polite and helpful so we eat here almost daily.....Totally recommended!
Service Rating: Excellent
Food Taste: Excellent
Authenticity: Very close, but obviously some Thai ingredients, particularly vegetables, are difficult to get fresh so have to rate as Excellent
Value for Money: Find me the same quality and service cheaper......Excellent
Came in for a quick fix of noodles and the Pad Thai fitted the bill. Service was friendly and the takeaway goodies were in my hands in what seemed like only a minute or two. By the time I walked home, dinner was still hot and was soon being enjoyed in front of the TV. Will revisit and work through the menu
I like Aroy. Haven't been in a while and never to this outlet but I was in the mood for some crispy pork and bok choi.
This outlet is a little dark inside but the staff were friendly. My meal was ready in 5 minutes.
The consistency here matches the other outlets I've been to. The meal, as always, was very tasty and satisfying. I asked for chili and they bought out two kinds which was nice.
The pork was juicy yet crispy and the bok choi nicely cooked and a reasonable amount. Plenty of rice and crisp, fresh salad garnish.
Very enjoyable.
Love the food and service. So very tasty food and love the cleanliness of the place. Pastry puffs are delicious. Been here a few times and the food never disappoints with authentic flavours.
Me and my friend are traveling in Wellington and we have tried several food. Aroy Thai is the most fast one. I ordered Tom yum soup with rice and sushi. Both of them are nice, but sushi is better than I though! My friends had Phai tai, she asked for medium spicy and it turned out its more spicy than she thought. In general, we enjoyed the meal and it would be a good restaurant if you are on your way hurry.
Aroy Thai is always the first place that pops to mind when I want cheap takeaways! I can't say it's the best Thai I've ever had, but it's very tasty and very affordable.
I've tried the Green curry which was really good, more on the sweet side so recommended for those who aren't a big fan of spice! All of the ingredients seem to be fresh too which is always a bonus.
Service is fast and friendly, will definitely be back again.
Aroy is one of my favourite takeaway places in Wellington as it's fast and the service is usually pretty good. I've had the pad Thai which was nice, although there were a lot of noodles compared to vegetables and chicken but it was very tasty and a generous portion size. This time I ordered the cashew chicken which came with rice and tasted exactly how I thought it would - and how I wanted it to taste. I really enjoyed it however i didn't like the pineapple in the stir fry, I don't think it added much to the dish. Next time I would like to try a curry but I will definitely be returning!
Although I am a frequent visitor to Wellington I had never sampled an Aroy meal. Stumbled across the Cuba Mall venue while exiting a local bar (another story!) Anyhow the chili chicken dish was ordered plus a roti with satay sauce. Both arrived at the same time. What can I say, absolutely lovely flavours and perfectly cooked. The roti is well worth the price and experience on their own. Total cost - 16 bucks. You can't argue with that price for the quality of the dishes. Would definitely go to one of the Aroy venues again.
Really good cheap Asian eat! Large quantities, had quite a lot left over. I ordered pad thai. Really enjoyed my meal although had a lot of noodles (probably too many) in ratio to chicken and vegetables. Would definitely recommend and keen to try more on the menu!
Great food for what you get charged. Better than some pricey Thai restaurant FYI no mushrooms in Tom yum soup? for those fussy soup eaters
Ordered beef with thai chilli sauce. Love it! I tasted a bit too sweet towards the end but it is yummy. Platted beautifully! The staff who takes our order is friendly. Comfortable seating area.
I am a regular at this place! Its cheap, delicious, and a great spot to take a group of friends. They provide efficient service and meals are always hot and cooked to perfection. The food is in quite large servings but usually too good to leave some for lunch the next day ;) They offer seafood, chicken, meat and vegetarian options - its a place the whole group can enjoy :)
I go there with my friends for lunch/dinner regularly. At aroy food always come out very quick. If you are looking for reasonable priced tasty authentic Thai food, this is the place to go. My personal favorite is Phad thai and roast duck on rice.
Went on a Saturday evening, even though they were very busy food was came out fast and was very tasty.
Customer service was average. Would definitely go there again.
What a Gem this place! We ordered 3 dishes and all were amazing. My beef soup is delicious.
I felt I was in my mother land !
Love this place; I always seem to come back for dining. Large portion size and friendly staff. The duck noodle soup is my favourite. Love the mango sticky rice as well. When you order takeaway, they package it up very well for you (separating soup and noodles/ingredients)
Good meal sizes and tasty. Came out quickly and hot. The girl who served me will was lovely and friendly.
The pad Thai was tasty (I've had better, but still very good)
Great cheerful uncomplicated Thai food. It's not 5 star cuisine but it's always tasty and quick.
I've been a fan for a few years but haven't been there in ages. So we went for all our favourites in one go: pad thai, fried chicken, tom yum and roti. Absolutely great and I look forward to going again.
The Pad Thai here is yummy ! Recommend it 👍 Also loved the tom yum noodles. Soup is really flavourfull. Had a nice thai iced milk tea to wash it all down 😎
yummy tomyum fried rice for a fair price (around $18-19! came out very quickly as well. ordered a medium and it wasn't very spicy so will go for hot next time. 😇
Very nice food ! The pork skewers actually tasted like the ones I had in Bangkok ! And the menu offers a nice range of choice. However I got charged extra for the fried egg in the basil chicken dish and the egg came over cooked. I am pretty sure the concept of fried egg is that the yolk remains runny ! Otherwise, nice experience overall, although the waitresses and waiters are not really smiley...
Duck noodle soup was legit! Take the number to your table and be served kind of place. Clean, fast service, very nice experience!
Delicious food, great Iced Tea and they brought the food out super quickly so it’s perfect if you are in a rush. Prices are fine and it‘s in the perfect spot, especially when you have been out in the city shopping or exploring the area.
Wish I would have tried out their Mango Sticky Rice, maybe next time we‘re in Wellington!
Love everything about this place! The casual ambiance, that down-to-earth feel of an eatery that makes it feel like “that place next door”. The food was good and reasonably priced. Also you guys need to try the authentic Thai ice drop.
Delicious and affordable. I had to come back twice during my short stay in Wellington. Good variety of thai food and service was great. I would definitely visit again.
Love their Pad Thai! Beef noodle soup and grilled duck soup are amazing too.
It's our regular for weekend lunches.
Very nice n cosy environment. Love their Thai food, especially the Thai Milk Tea
This place was a recommendation so we went in on our first night in Wellington. The food came out superfast, the dishes were tasty (Especially the ginger steamed chicken) and plentiful. Worth another visit.
Great menu, fast service, and delicious food! Pictured here are the beef noodle (added egg), and dried noodles with duck. Love the portions, great colours, and simply vibrant ambiance. 💯
