A friend and I received a $50 voucher and thought since being my birthday we will check it out and we were not disappointed that's for sure. We were given recommendations on what was good to try and very friendly staff. Thank you 😁More infoNahm Talay Thai$$$$• Thai• Surfers Paradise•4.6
- CCherylBrisbane •1 review5.0Dined on May 16, 2026Great venue for my daughter's 18th. The staff were really friendly. We appreciate the table service for ordering meals, especially that we could pay as we ordered - that was really convenient given we were a party of 8. The band was great. We came all the way from Ipswich, and would happily travel to the venue again to hear the band again. We might try a Sunday lunch next time.More infoSteampunk - Surfers Paradise$$$$• Modern Australian• Surfers Paradise•4.3
