Best Southeast Asian Restaurants in Thornbury

Genuinely faultless food and service. Very very generous portions, accommodation made @ late notice for a vegetarian with additional meals provided for the banquet. So much food we took home quite a few take away containers (don't judge - food waste is a terrible thing!). This was a first time for me and I'll be back for sure.

Fantastic food Professional and friendly service Great vibe and atmosphere Very very loud so have to yell to talk so not an intimate setting.

This is my second time in attendance for the amazing Hoiana experience! Special mention and thank you goes to the amazing Chef and Owner Kiki for your hospitality and energetic spirit. The food was delicious and all the staff were so welcoming and great to converse with. Kiki and team have done an amazing job in building Hoiana into a shining light for contemporary Vietnamese cuisine. Can’t wait to visit again!

The food was SO delicious and meats expertly made. We were just a party of three and ordered $49 pp menu which consisted of two small dishes and two main large dishes (plus a bowl of Jasmine rice). We ordered for smalls the Sate Ayam chicken skewers and Sate Maranggi Beef skewers. The Ayam skewers were succulent and not dry, and lay on top of a perfect and highly addictive peanut satay sauce. The Maranggi skewers were soft not too rare but richly flavourful from the soy marinade. The mains we chose Rendang Wagyu which looked amazing in presentation (very generous serving too) it looked dense and black cooked in a dark chilli curry. It wasn’t spicy however this dish combined with Jasmine rice is insanely satisfying and filling. Still on the meat tip we ended up with the lighter Ayam Tangkap Aceh an aromatic lightly fried chicken with chilli, curry leaves and crispy pandan. The flavours infused with the rich olive oil tasted great with rice and our Rendang beef. We also had Gado Gado green been + tofu peanut dressing salad. I don’t drink alcohol but the cocktails are also yummy I got to taste my friend’s Cendol - clarified Pandan vodka, palm sugar + salty coconut mmmm the strength of the vodka was nicely offset with sweetness of sugar and that empowering distinct coconut taste. We were so full we didn’t end ordering desert. Next time. We had such a good time and our waiters and waitress were so friendly and obliging with all our requests. Will def be back again 5 Stars

Hochi Mama in Richmond is a must-visit! The food is delicious, the service is outstanding, the ambience is vibrant, and the prices are very reasonable. I can’t wait to go back!
