Thai 2 Go

In Thai 2 Go has long been a local favourite in Mount Maunganui, a bustling Thai restaurant that hums with loyal customers.

With a team of four Thai chefs at the helm and a focus on quality ingredients, it captures the fragrant balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy that defines the cuisine. Swift, friendly service ensures diners keep coming back for more.

Broths are bright and evocative - tom kha brings coconut cream, galangal and lime to the fore, while tom yum leans into a lively, aromatic tang. The street-food spirit shows in som tum, all crunch and zing, and in yum talay, a lively mix of seafood and herbs.

Curries are confident yet comforting, from green curry’s verdant snap to the warmly spiced depths of massaman curry. Noodles and rice play their part too - pad thai arrives with pleasing chew and lift, while pineapple fried rice brings a sunny sweetness. Wok dishes range from cashew stir fry to pork belly stir fry with bok choy and garlic, with roti and satay on the side for good measure.

Casual, lively and consistently popular, Thai 2 Go is as suited to a quick bite as a relaxed catch-up. Sit back, relax, and let the spice do the talking - chopsticks at the ready!
