★★★★★“This is a next level WOW Thai restaurant. While average Thai restaurant are a dime a dozen here in Melbourne, this place offers Thai food with finesse. The soft balancing of sweet, sour and salty are on point. It is not an uncontrolled exercise of just piling on the flavours that overpowers the natural flavours of the fresh ingredients. Every dish we ordered was very good. Special mention is needed for the started calamari salad. The calamari was so perfectly charred to give that smoky edge but yet retains its tenderness - a masterpiece! The only let down of the night was the banana, glutinous rice dessert. The filling was a little too funky for my liking. It is a small cosy restaurant, so make you book in advance.”

★★★★★“The food is very delicious and the service was great! I recommend trying the steam barramundi / Pad Thai Prawn /Pla Goong / Massaman really tasty. If you’re planning to having dinner on Friday&Saturday, i suggest making a reservation in advance as the restaurant fillys up quickly.”

★★★★★“Visited Saychol Thai for a dinner last Sunday and absolutely fell in love with this place. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by a very polite and kind staff who explained the vegan options to me and also gave me a suggestion so I followed her and the food didn't disappoint! I had Fried Tofu, vegan Tom Kha Soup and vegan Pad See Ew which I am still dreaming of 🤍 They clearly put thier love in the food I can tell. The restaurant is very clean, hygienic and well decorated. Highly recommend!”
