Spicy Aroma - CANLEY HEIGHTS

This is my go-to Laos/Thai restaurant if other popular places were booked out. Spicy Aroma is always not too busy and their pad Thai is also tasty. The green chicken curry was authentic Laos which is different to your usual Thai curry, it had predominantly baby eggplant and bamboo. Dishes are reasonable priced and service has always been quite good for me

The food here is great, similar to how my mama makes it. This restaurant is very under rated! Love the Lao papaya salad and Lao sausage here, much better compared to other local Lao/Thai restaurants with quality of the food. Every dish is so flavorful. Staff are friendly and very attentive. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Local residents love the combination of good quality, affordable prices, and generous portions at Spicy Aroma. The restaurant has been a staple in the community for over a decade, consistently delivering delicious dishes. After comparing it to Holy Basil, the reviewer decided to stick with Spicy Aroma due to its better value for money. They recommend Spicy Aroma over Holy Basil any day, especially for those in Canley Heights.

This wonderful little restaurant in Canley Heights offers a delicious blend of Thai and Lao cuisine at reasonable prices. Personally, I prefer the Lao options such as the Lao sausages, salads, and BBQ meats, paired with sticky rice for a satisfying meal. The portions are generous and the spice level can be adjusted to your liking. I have also enjoyed the classic Thai noodle dishes like pad Thai and pad see ew. They have lunch specials available, but I have only dined here for dinner. Located a bit away from the main cluster of Vietnamese restaurants, it may be easy to overlook, but it is within walking distance and well worth a visit.

Spicy Aroma has quickly become a favourite among my family, with my family visiting the Canley Heights restaurant 4 times in the past month. This is mainly because my Mum loves Thai/Laos food and when she is introduced to a good restaurant, she will keep revisiting it time and time again.
