The Emerald Thai - Papakura

Lots of vegetarian options. The Pad Thai was delicious.

Had a very delicious Valentine 's days dinner here tonight! Started with the chef 's selection appetizers, not bad a little too much sweet corn filler for my liking but wow the mains were on point! Had the most delicious seafood salad that even smelt like Thailand, full of fish sauce, garlic, chilli, Thai basil and coriander with the most suculently cooked seafood, huge fresh prawns and scallops that melted in the mouth squid and a fish that literally broke down on the bite. Also shared the northern Thai style curry with crispy pork divine! My exact words before going were 'I hope I taste coriander, lemongrass, kaffir lime and chilli ' this dish delivered on all fronts! Service was super Thai manaakitanga

Very yummy Thai. 4 of us dined. They had lots of vegetarian options which was awesome. Loved the corn fritters. I had the sweet and sour tofu with vege which was delish. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals. Good portions and very friendly staff. Definitely visit again, a papakura gem.

Was very happy with this place. After visiting another Thai place minutes before and being told they couldn't make anything vegan, it was fantastic to see that the lady knew what vegan was. She told me what I could have, and when I ordered the vegetarian spring rolls she let me know they put fish sauce in them. Great service.

Enjoyed a lovely prawn pad thai meal with chicken satay starter, then banana fritter for dessert, lovely waitress, the batter for the banana fritter was nice and light and wasnt over coated in cinnamon which is how it gets served most of the time, just manuka honey, ice cream and a small amount of cream HIT THE SPOT, my flatmate@zetadavies had the duck and veg and said it was lovely too !!!!
