Thai food was nice but not spectacular.
We tried 3 different dishes each one was 'OK' we actually expected better.
We wanted to order desserts but nobody came to take our order so after waiting half an hour we decided to pay our bill and try somewhere else for our sweets.
The restaurant is nicely furnished with very pleasant staff and nice atmosphere.

If you like Indian food, no forget that, if you like food, don't miss Hanuman.
I've struggled to find good Indian food in Australia, so I never miss Hanuman when I'm in Darwin.
My favourite Indian restaurant in Australia.
Not just the food, the other hard to get in Australia is good service, Hanuman always look after you well.

Glad to have found a table, on a random Tuesday night even! Our waitress (Michelle) suggested what to order and when asked for more spicy, it came as what we expected ! Chicken and beef is halal, but you can always check again before ordering to make sure the info is updated. Their chicken satay was of Malaysian style, that’s a rare find! Jackfruit curry was mindblowing good and thick gravy.
The dessert didn’t have enough pandan flavour, but otherwise all else is good!

Absolutely loved this place! Best Indian food I have ever tried. The duck curry is now on my top dishes ever tasted.
Service was great, although servers should be a bit proactive and when a table of 2 asks for 4 pappadams maybe tell them they're actually ordering 4 BASKETS of pappadams. We had to return 3 baskets as one had 6 in it.
I will be back and will be referring people here for sure.

Food and atmosphere is great. Prices are on the mid to high range so I usually only go here for special occasions. Really like the South East Asian decor and their Indian and Thai curries. Whenever the Darwin festival rolls around I always get their butter chicken or chicken chettinad from their stall. Highly recommend for dinner with a date or a small group.
