Paradai 2 Thai Restaurant

Carnegie's long-running Thai favourite - over a decade of pad Thai, panang curry and barramundi.

Cosy, ma-and-pa neighbourhood Thai dining room - busy on weekends, with a rustic, homely feel reviewers prefer over its flashier sister restaurant next door.

BYO wine, vegan and vegetarian options on the menu, takeaway peanut sauce sold separately, and dishes reviewers say run spicier than the mild-request norm.

Repeatedly described by reviewers as tasting authentically like Thailand, with "less fusion style" than other Melbourne Thai restaurants.

Reviewers consistently call it very reasonably priced for generous, authentic-tasting portions, with a few noting smaller entree sizes relative to cost.
