Buddha Raksa Thai Restaurant

The atmosphere is inviting, with staff making sure to create a pleasant experience dining here. Thai inspired decor adds a touch of magic with its well kept clean and vibrant setting.

Food is a mix of traditional known Thai food and a few pleasant offerings not found at other places. I love biting into the food and discovering slight flavour twists that oomph up the taste.

Price is mid range, but being surrounded in calm setting is well worth giving this place a go.

It's the best Thai restaurant in Sydney ever! I can't recommend this place more. They are so friendly and cheerful. They care all the customer. The food was so delicious. Whenever we settle down They brought a bowl of rice for my little one;) This is the only place I'll always come. Thanks for everything.

Had a wonderful dining experience with friends and fam. The signature crispy eggplant is an absolute must try and the fried ice cream dessert was a sweet delight. The service was friendly and attentive, cozy environment. Recommended!

I love this place…. It’s a favourite through the years and never disappoints …. Prawn Pad Thai is a winner ….the sauce …. No tomato flavour in it at all…..only peanut heaven …woooooo the eggplant dishes are a vegetarians dream 🫠 and the Yum Woo Sen ….. deliciously sour, spicy sweet and savoury explosion in your mouth …. If you are in the area…. Check them out.

Second time to Buddha Raksa with my family ( parents, brother, Sister-in-law and my niece and nephew) this has definitely become our favourite Thai. I can definitely say best Thai in Sydney! my brother has eaten here may times and has take away also. The food is amazing and the service just as good. We had the best Beef Massaman, crispy Eggplant wow! the other night and all food was fresh and of top quality. Becoming a family favourite.

DELICIOUS! Especially their crispy eggplant dish. A must order. Very happy to see vegan options on the menu too and they are a healthy alternative to fish sauce options. Service is great and staff take care of you. Serving sizes are generous. Free massages too if you order crispy eggplant.

A hidden gem, an underrated, an authentic Thai restaurant that serves the quality Thai food. The inside decor is so nice and the staff are super friendly. Menu has different choices of entrees to share with friends and family (their chicken satay skewers is a must try) and many main meals to choose from. They also have vegetarian options as well as non spicy dishes for weak people like me to enjoy. Their Thai milk tea is LIT, probs my favourite. Unfortunately they don't have desserts. The price range is over $20/person but the portion is huge. It's also easy to get a table if you are walk-in.

I have written countless reviews and have got to say that this is one of the most best place to eat. The chicken Tom yum is a must try but all the items ate quite expensive. Overall, must try place . Excellent staff too 👍

Updated review: A big big thanks to TD and her team for organising a beautiful banquet for my family celebration dinner event!

TD helped me organise the banquet menu to be very friendly for vegans, vegetarians and other dietary requirements, and she was super lovely, friendly and attentive throughout the whole event.

Amazing banquet selection, and can’t wait to come back and dine again!

Been here 3 times already, and Buddha Raksa always deliver. Great quality food, even greater quality service!

We’ve had a few entrees (money bags and satay skewers), and would recommend both if you are a fan of the slightly sweeter side of peanut satay sauce. The money bag filling is creamy, with some peanut filling as well as other ingredients. Satay chicken is juicy! Unlike most other places where you know they rushed the heating up from its frozen state.

Massaman curry hits the spot every time. Lovely amount of flavour and spice, not overpowering with the coconut cream base, to keep the main massaman curry flavour coming through. Slow cooked beef chunks that are tender and juicy.

Xenia moscato is lovely as well!

Fried icecream is a thick breadcrumb exterior with vanilla icecream ball inside, delicious!

The. Best. Thai. In. Sydney. Hands down. My family and I have been coming to Buddha Raksa for nearly 20 years. The food is amazing. The service is spectacular. Whenever I eat Thai food anywhere else I always compare it to Buddha Raksa. And I am always convinced that Buddha Raksa is the best. This restaurant is a staple of the area and I guarantee you that anyone who lives around here knows it. I think what really adds to the experience is the genuineness of the owners. They are so kind and good natured and whenever we visit they always ask how things are going. They truly are amazing people. The flavours of the food are always so nice and complement each other perfectly. There’s such a variety of food to choose from on the menu and they do it so incredibly well. You really really can’t go wrong with this restaurant.

It is simple authentic resturant. The food was really delicious. I really love how they serve the rice in very traditional way.

The food taste amazing,fresh and full of flavours!
Beautiful staff, friendly and very welcoming atmosphere. I 💯 recommend this place!

It was my first time there and will definitely come there often from now on. The owner and staff are very nice ,so polite , and so friendly. The place is so beautiful. This is one of the nicest Thai restaurant in Sydney . Would recommend every one to come

One of the best and classy fine dining Thai restaurant in Burwood/Strathfield area. The owner Mr. Tep always greets with a smile and understands my special vegetarian dietary requirements and suggests dishes accordingly.

We have been coming here for 30 years! The food is amazing and incredible service. Authentic Thai food and reasonable prices. Owners Tep and Tittimar take a lot of pride in their business, cleanliness and decoration. They even have engraved chairs with Buddha Raksa on them! Great for dates, family nights or functions upstairs. Highly recommended. Ian

One of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been! We are lucky to live near by))
