This is one of my favorite Chinese vegetarian restaurants in Sydney. Each time I have visitors come to visit me, I sure to bring them here to entertain them. They all acknowledged it was the best Chinese vegetarian foods they ever had. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully and thoughtfully presented with an excellent selection choices. The owner was courteous and friendly. The decor was clean and intimate, suitable for friends to get together. I would recommend this restaurant unreservedly to my friends who enjoy vegetarian cuisine.

Delicious food and great service. The only thing I would suggest is that the photo quality of the menu could be improved especially with the amount of options available. The owner is very welcoming and accommodating. Overall a positive experience!

First picture looks like micky mouse anyways prices were kind of expensive for what it’s worth, the food was interesting because everything is vegetarian so we had a lot of tofu and other stuff. Deep fried but very oily, serving sizes were quite tiny. Found the dishes to be quite dry but idk

This was our second time at Mother Chu’s. It is strictly vegan and they have a variety of dishes that mimic meat. I enjoyed a steamed bun with a barbecued filling. I’ve never had a steamed bun before but it was delicious and filling. I had the wonton noodle soup which had 4 nice sized wontons and a tasty broth. Hubs and I shared the Mongolian style gluten dish. You get a lot of food. Not a lot of ambiance but always crowded as the food is that good. Our server is a very special woman who we met last year when our friend brought us there and she remembered us. It is definitely a place we will return to when we visit Sydney.

An amazing fun menu with lots of classics you usually can’t get as a veggie. Mother was a great host, always filling up our water. Will be returning, seitan, tempeh, mushroom and tofu options for all veggie preferences. Decent portion sizes but would recommend at least 2 dishes as they are so good.

Taste : The Japanese course was well-seasoned and delicious. Atmosphere : The quiet atmosphere and open kitchen give it an authentic feel, just like in Japan. Service : The staff were quite friendly. Overall : The only downside is the high price, but it's worth visiting for a special occasion.

The taste and quality of the food was amazing. Simple, authentic, and delicious. The service was excellent. It's a little expensive, but well worth the price.

I have been here twice for different celebrations this year. It was nice experiencing the slight visual differences yet the same tastebud journey. The staff were friendly and they introduced some dry sake for rice wine beginner like myself. I only got a bit tipsy, so I got to enjoy and remember the flavour and texture of the dishes. I love the dining experience here and am looking forward to more celebrations.

One of the best Japanese experiences I've had. The food was simple and incredibly delicate with huge flavour. I have given 4 stars but they would have received 5 if the drinks menu was a bit better. I will be going again soon!

This restaurant offers a great menu with a wide variety of options. We ordered a selection of stews, including beef stew, pork bone stew, and tofu and beef stew. Each dish was served piping hot, with rich, bold flavors and a satisfying kick that made every bite mouthwatering. The broth was well-balanced, deeply flavorful, and absolutely delicious. One of the best Korean restaurants in the city!

I absolutely love this Korean BBQ place. I first came here 10 years ago, and even though I live overseas now, every time I'm back in Sydney we come to visit here. It's probably my husband's favourite restaurant in Sydney too. Great value and quality all you can eat buffet.

Good selection/variety of meats and great service. Very attentive to changing the grill regularly and timely service. Good value for a buffet in comparison to ordering a la carte. Side dishes like steamed egg and stews are good portion sizes.

Great food - good quality meat for reasonable price. Really really good service - very attentive and smart, says a lot these days. Unprompted side dish refill. I used to come here years ago and will likely frequent this place again.

My partner and I come here quite often. For us, it’s amazing! From the friendly service. To the array of different choices from BBQ, Noodles, Fried Chicken, side dishes and many more if I could go on. Quality is consistent and we highly recommend this place!!

Great authentic Thai food at affordable prices and good value. Pad Thai was very nice and has a bit of a kick of spice. Tom yum fried rice with chicken was very nice too, punch of flavour. Chicken wings were ok.

8/3/25 - 3 stars One of many Thai restaurants in the Sydney CBD. It's slightly better furnished and decorated than other casual eateries in Thai town, but, still mostly casual. Service is quite ordinary. Food has decent flavours but nothing amazing. Value for money is also just ok especially since plain rice is $4.3 per bowl. They do offer 5% off for cash. Overall, not that good but not that bad either. Value is a little poor. Definitely could eat thai for cheaper elsewhere Papaya salad: A, 7/10. Flavours ok though $20 Crispy pork prik khing: S, 8/10. A bit crunchy yet chewy. $25 Pad thai duck: A, 7/10. Mid, $26 Pineapple fried rice: B, 6/10. Not worth $26 for sure Thai basil fried fish: S, 8/10. Pretty good with fillet portions fried separately so no bones. $36 is steep Red curry duck: S, 8/10. Very aromatic though perhaps a bit too much coconut. $26 for a little bowl though.

Had an amazing meal at Home Thai Restaurant! While they forgot our order initially, once we reminded them, they offered us free soft drinks as an apology. We kindly declined since we don’t drink soft drinks, but it was a nice gesture. Despite the wait, the food was absolutely delicious, and we quickly forgot about the delay once we started eating. Highly recommen

HomeThai in Sydney CBD offers flavorful dishes with a pleasant atmosphere, both earning a solid four out of five. While the food is great, I’ve experienced Thai cuisine that stands out a bit more. The service, though friendly, could be more streamlined, as ordering at the counter and catching staff attention during peak hours can be a challenge. One downside is that the toilet is not part of the restaurant and can be a bit hard to reach. Overall, it’s a good choice for a casual Thai meal in the heart of the city.
