Alicia Thai

Alicia Thai is a Lovely Thai Restaurant, Located on Alicia Street, Between Blake Street and Enid Avenue Southport. Received Very Friendly Service. Had the Mixed Entree and the Duck Curry. Took quite a while for the Entree to arrive & just a little time after, the Main arrived. PLEASE, allow us some time to enjoy the Starter, Before delivering the Main !! Apart from that. Both dishes were Very Tasty. Would be Amongst the Best Duck Curries on the Gold Coast.

Alicia Thai in Southport serves as a poignant reminder that authentic Thai cuisine need not sacrifice comfort or presentation. With its vibrant yellow place mats and an invitingly casual atmosphere, the restaurant strikes a delicate balance between traditional flavours and the approachable charm of a local favourite. The meal began with a mixed entrée platter that arrived as a colourful display of classic starters—coconut prawns, satay skewers, and tender grilled chicken, all accompanied by a duo of dipping sauces. Each bite carried the expected sweet, savoury, and slightly spicy notes that one hopes for but rarely finds with such consistency outside of Thailand itself. The main courses were a feast for the senses. The Tom Yum soup, a bright crimson broth, presented a melody of citrus, lemongrass, and a gentle hum of chilli heat. The prawns were plump, and the mushrooms absorbed the soup's tangy richness perfectly. Alongside, a crispy pork belly kailan provided a satisfying contrast. The pork belly was cooked to an ideal crispness, complemented by fresh greens and a savoury garlic sauce that lingered pleasantly. The curries—one a vibrant red curry and the other a golden Massaman curry—were equally delightful. The Massaman curry, with its tender chunks of beef and a delicate hint of cinnamon and star anise, offered a comforting warmth. The red curry, adorned with fresh basil and vibrant vegetables, managed to be both light and rich, with a velvety coconut base punctuated by fresh, crunchy bites. Alicia Thai doesn't overreach. Instead, it offers precisely what one craves: familiar dishes prepared with care and an unpretentious setting that invites both regulars and newcomers to relax and enjoy. While the restaurant might not boast the refined decor of a fine dining establishment, it delivers where it counts—the flavours, the service, and the overall experience.
