"We had dinner at Sanook Thai tonight, service was fast and friendly and the food was great! We had Green curry chicken, Thai fried rice and BBQ pork neck. Delicious food and nice team running the restaurant, we will be back!"

"The best Thai food in the area! We come here every time we visit Port Stephens and it never disappoints. Amazing food, very generous portions, great service and the restaurant is beautifully decorated."
Amber
"Have been enjoying their hospitality over the years on occasions when we’ve escaped to Port Stephens for short breaks - both dining in & with takeaway. Have always had great service with quality Thai food. Recently my wife & I were on a short break & we placed an order for pickup. Inadvertently, I left my wallet on a part of the counter that wasn’t prominent, not even realising it was missing until I was contacted the next day by the staff. They even offered to drop off to me as we were staying close by. I promptly collected & greatly appreciated their honesty & integrity - rarely found in business today.
Much appreciated - thank you very much."
