It took rather long time for our dishes to be served as it looked like they were waiting to manage 3big tables at one time. Entree (eggplants, skewers and spring rolls) were nice. The chicken salad was yummy and refreshing. Ordered two pad Thai and they looked VERY different. One with lots of noodles but no prawns and minimal amount of chickens. The other had 3 prawns, a bit more chicken but half the amount of noodles of the other one… Overall: average, slightly overpriced.

The Lemongrass Thai is almost an Adelaide Institution it has been here for so long. The food was amazing in its earlier days. Dinner last night was ordinary at best. The steamed dumplings were covered in a rich red curry coconut-based sauce which overpowered them. The menu was not sufficiently descriptive so this was not what we were expecting. The beef cashew and basil stir-fry was just ok, the broccoli in it noticeably hard. Stir-fry were served and getting colder on the table whilst we waited for the rice to accompany it. Eventually we had to request the rice from a waitress. No one came back to our table once meals were finally all served to ask if our drinks needed refreshing. We decided to go elsewhere for dessert.

Asked for a Jameson and Dry was told by server I could only have lemonade or coke as Dry wasn't an option, went to bar Dry was an option - no biggie, we move on. Ordered a peanut chicken (GF) for wife a wagyu beef for myself and a pepper chicken for my father, order was taken twice by the server. In the end my wife got a few mouthfuls into her meal before she realised this was in fact, not the peanut chicken (GF) but rather the pepper chicken with GLUTEN, my father was told he ordered the pepper beef not chicken, the server then said the pepper beef was actually my wagyu and they will make my dad a fresh pepper chicken (nice of them) and bring a peanut chicken (GF) out for my wife (so nice of them) and then I ate the pepper beef which I was told was the wagyu, after much discussion it was evident that the language barrier was too great to overcome so I just paid for everything and vowed never to return. Probably been here over 10 times and have had nothing but wonderful food and service, under extreme crowds so I am unsure why there was so many issues when there was only 4 tables to serve.

We had staff bringing orders and they didn’t know what the meals were. When we suggested what it might be it was placed in front of us and then they returned with the actual dish ordered and took the other - intended for a different table away. We were being brought unordered drinks and didn’t receive some food like extra rice. It was quite the shambles. They stated on the bottom of the menu that there were no split bills but don’t advertise that or mention prior when booking. We had a large group and with all the mess up they still couldn’t do split bills. We were able to recheck the order and they did amend added extras but this took as long as charging up what would’ve been 3 individual families payments. It was a busy night for the restaurant given there was a major event on but that should’ve come at no surprise to them. The food was good but didn’t outweigh the disorganised experience.

Service was bad and made us wait for a while to take our order. All our dishes, which we mentioned were to be shared, came without serving spoons. Ordered a bottle of sparkling water and was left on our table still capped. Entrees were ok. The pad Thai was good. Red beef curry lacked flavour. We were 3 people, ordered 2 entrees, 1 roti bread, 3 mains, 2 glasses of wine and 1 iced tea and 1 bottle sparkling water. Total bill A$175. I think it’s too much for the quality of food and the service offered. Would not recommend.

I took my son to Lemongrass on Sunday night and he loved the Seafood Laksa. We shared some vegetarian Spring Rolls which were delicious. This is my favourite Thai restaurant in Adelaide.

We didn't order entrees as mains are usually enough. The 4 mains we ordered were great, with lots of colour and flavour. I had eaten there before and ordered dessert but this time we were told there wasn't even a dessert menu. This is despite seeing multiple photographs of it on the internet, many of which were taken in recent months. The place was packed to the rafters, and they were turning people away at the door, so I'm glad I booked ahead (we'd forgotten there was a special event on that night in the CBD) but the staff were coping very well and our meals arrived in good time. We had to look elsewhere for dessert and coffee, otherwise it would have been a perfect night.

The food and restaurant was amazing. Food came out super fast, and team were amazing, super friendly and helpful. Food had so much flavour, was really a great restaurant. Thai green curry was to die for, paired with the Thai fried rice. Highly recommend.

Food was nice however portions were on the smaller size. Drinks served between entree and main course and only then after asking with one main meal then served some 5 minutes before the other which was disappointing. Overall, 5/10 - a drop from a previous visit. The tips jar was empty which was unsurprising based on our visit.

We have been here twice before and it has been lovely, but this time it took a while to get served. 3 other groups came in after we had ordered and their food came out quickly, we was still waiting for ours! We had been sat there with our drinks for 45mins and still no food! We went to the register and told them we would just pay for our drinks as we had to be somewhere in 30 mins. They said they were sorry, they could rush the food through, but as we had tickets booked that was no help, so they said sorry again and told us they would pay for our drinks. We will go back and try again as this has never happened there before.
