Thai Thai Restaurant Invercargill has served Spey Street since 2016, offering lunch and dinner every day of the week. The fully licensed dining room is set up for family and group meals, while table bookings, pickup and delivery give customers several ways to use the same kitchen. Its menu is unusually broad, moving from light starters and aromatic soups through curries, wok dishes, sizzling plates, noodles and desserts without losing sight of familiar Thai combinations of herbs, chilli, coconut, lime and fish sauce.
Entrées make it possible to begin with several textures rather than one heavy plate. Fresh spring rolls wrap prawns or chicken with vegetables, mint, lettuce and noodles, while vegetable spring rolls, curry puffs and money bags take a crisp fried route. Fish cakes bring curry paste into the mixture, chicken satay arrives with peanut and sweet vinegar sauces, and fried tofu provides a simple vegetarian option. A mixed platter can gather several of these smaller pieces for a table to compare.
Curries and noodles cover the recognisable centre of the menu. Green curry cooks chilli paste and coconut milk with vegetables and a chosen protein, while red curry offers a different aromatic base. Pad Thai and Thai fried rice answer the appetite for a complete one-plate meal. Wok dishes add cashew, ginger, basil, peanut or roasted chilli sauces, allowing diners to adjust both the protein and the flavour direction rather than ordering a fixed combination every time.
The sizzling and chef-choice sections move beyond those classics. Black pepper hot plates emphasize garlic and vegetables, sizzling tom yum turns the soup's sour and spicy profile into a stir-fry, and angry beef combines chilli, capsicum, spring onion and beans. Southern-style pork uses curry paste, kaffir lime, lemongrass and fresh peppercorn, while tamarind prawns and mixed seafood in red curry and coconut cream bring sweet-sour and rich notes. Vegetarian dishes and Thai desserts round out a menu designed for repeat visits.
