About Withrice Thai Kitchen

Withrice Thai Kitchen turns out punchy, generous wok-fired staples at prices that feel straight out of the 1990s. Run by a welcoming young couple, this compact Burke Road shopfront keeps things strictly utilitarian—two tables, minimal fuss, and takeaway containers even if you sit down. The wok hei is real, filling the air while orders leave the pass in minutes. Neighborhood regulars rely on the saucy pad Thai, peppery pad kee mao, and bowls of tom yum soup noodle dialed in with sharp citrus and spice. Plates of pad krapao gai arrive loaded with crisp chicken, chilies, and fragrant holy basil over steaming jasmine rice.

  • Takeaway-First Setup: A compact shopfront running two tables and packaging orders for takeaway speed.
  • Family-Run Warmth: Run by a welcoming young couple who know their regulars and turn orders around fast.
  • Neighborhood Value: Heaping portions of pad krapao gai, duck curries, and tangy tom yum at modest prices.

Practical advice on ordering, lunch timing, and parking for your visit

  • Plan for Takeaway Rather Than Dine-In

    The venue operates primarily as a compact takeaway outlet with just two tables, and dine-in meals are served in takeaway containers, so planning to order takeaway for home is the best way to enjoy it.

  • Visit for Daytime Lunch Hours

    Take advantage of their daytime lunch service, which provides a rare midday Thai option across the local area where alternatives typically open only for dinner.

  • Park Behind the Shopping Strip

    Street parking and an off-street lot behind the shopping strip make collecting phone and takeaway orders convenient during busy dinner periods.
