Customer Review Summary

The food draws the most repeated praise, with diners singling out the Nasi Lemak served with coconut rice and a beef curry one reviewer called among the best he had eaten. Close behind is the breadth of the menu: the duck dishes and Chengdu king prawns get named, several point to the range of vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices, and one finishes with an Irish coffee. Also mentioned are the small extras, heated plates, complimentary prawn crackers and portions large enough that one group left very full. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly, helpful and prompt, with longtime regulars noting the owners remember their names across years of birthday parties, and a large party takeaway order that was ready exactly when needed. Against that, one longtime customer writing in early 2026 says the food quality and delivery times have deteriorated badly enough that they will not order again, and another notes prices run a little higher. Several say they booked a table online and would return.

    “Written as of Feb 2026. I have used Lemongrass for a few years now. Previously the food and delivery times were top notch. But unfortunately the quality of the food and the delivery times have really deteriorated. So much so I wont be using them again. Really unfortunate.”
  • EA E
    “Thanks to everyone at Lemongrass for the great food and service. We placed a very large takeaway order for a big party and it was ready exactly when we needed it. It was absolutely delicious!! Very professional and courteous to deal with. Highly recommend.”
  • Seta McEvoy
    “We took our mum here for a birthday dinner and we had the most delicious food. The service was excellent and faultless. We appreciated the little details like heated plates, complimentary prawn crackers and large portion sizes. We left feeling very happy and very full!! Would highly recommend and if we are ever in the area again, we will definitely be back!”
