We found this restaurant when going on google to find the best restaurants in Hamilton. We had a few appointments in the area so thought we would go there for dinner before heading back to Whitianga. The staff were lovely and friendly and the food was delicious. We had the green curry dish and the sizzling black pepper lamb dish..... Yum!! Then we had an ice-cream sundae and the cheesecake. Highly recommend this Restaurant so glad we found it; we will be back. Also, the toilets were so clean that's a big plus for me.

I had marvelous experiences at Chim Thai Restaurant! The staff were welcoming and attentive. What truly stood out was the manager who was proactively attending to all tables and personally ensuring that every guest was well taken care of and made sure order was accurate and checked in regularly adding a thoughtful and professional touch to the overall experience. The food was always well presented, service was prompt and well-paced with the manager happy to offer recommendation and ensure everything was just right throughout the meal, and the mocktail drinks were also refreshing! I’ve been a regular customer to this day.
