To compare restaurants, after visiting Amy@Lemon Thai, we went for dinner to the nearby Aom Jai. The name means at home. The welcome was such warmth that we felt ourselves at home. The little problem was that at home, we don't have to eat the stir-fry with the spoon, that we got for the soup, and don't have to ask for serviettes. After the drawbacks now the advantages. We were escorted outside to a little garden restaurant that was very welcoming with a lot of flowers, but this time of the year, on a rainy, windy evening, wasn't the best choice. We got a heater above us, turned on immediately, but the cold wind won over the heater. My Tom Kha Gai soup first was a bit strange with the wedges...
This place seems to have some potential and I have noticed Thai people eating here which usually means authentic tastes - however each time I have eaten here there has been a lack of spice. Some good authentic flavours - the green chilli was nice - good use of Thai herbs - but not that green chilli spice you expect. Larb was OK. The Prik Khing should be stir fry in red curry paste - it was non existent. I suspect the Thai customers may get a different version to westerners - please don't! There is a nice area out the back to sit. Nice people as well running the place and the kitchen looks very clean,
The service and staff are always fantastic at this restaurant. The pad kee mao has a nice spicy kick, and my children really enjoy the pad thai and chicken wings. We even had our work Christmas party here last year, and Peter did a great job making sure everyone was well taken care of. Unfortunately, I accidentally dropped a bottle of wine when I was closing up, but overall, everyone left feeling full and very satisfied.
It took a while but we have finally found a great thai restaurant to dine in and get home delivered nearby. After exhausting most in the Dee Why and surrounding areas we stumbled across Aom Jai and they haven't disappointed once. The massaman is my absolute fav, beef is always super tender and sauce rich and tasty. Chicken satays, curry puffs and chilli basil noodles are regularly ordered

Dropped in for dinner and found that this charming hole in the wall had a courtyard area for dining.Really lovely alfresco style.The food came out in a timely manner, and was fresh, Super tasty.I'm a huge fan of chilli and asked for extra fresh chilli to go with my som tum (green papaya salad).Food was plentiful, delicious and well presented. Will be back for more.
I recently visited Aom Jai Thai restaurant on a gloomy winter day and received a warm welcome. The cashew chicken stir-fry I ordered was delicious and prepared quickly. Although the decor is simple, the food was high quality and reasonably priced. I preferred it over another Thai restaurant, Amy@Lemon Thai, located nearby which was also good.
This Thai cuisine restaurant has recently opened in Pacific Parade replacing a Thai restaurant there previously. The food is authentic Thai, fresh and flavorsome. Well worth the visit for takeaway or dine-in. Very clean.
My favourite pad Thai on the northern beaches they'll even do one with prawn and squid. Awesome serving size too, you could live on one for a week!

What a gem among all the tourist traps in LourdesI was looking for a great place to eat and found this recommendation.
We went here back in January, so I'm not sure how crowded it gets during the pilgrimage season.
