About Tosakan Thai Restaurant

Wok-fired heat and Bangkok-style flavours anchor this Chermside spot, where thick curries and generous stir-fries come straight from an open kitchen. Regulars lean on the rich massaman beef and crispy skin duck red curry, while the kitchen readily tweaks stir-fries and pad Thai for gluten-free and vegetarian diners without missing a beat. Portions easily stretch across the table for family-style sharing, best paired with coconut rice and skewers of chicken satay.

  • Flexible dietary options: Dishes can be prepared gluten-free or vegetarian without egg and oyster sauce upon request.
  • Wok-fired portions: Generous plates built for sharing straight from the open kitchen.

Why Choose Tosakan Thai Restaurant

Discover why local diners rely on Tosakan for authentic flavours, generous sharing, and tailored dietary care.

  • Authentic Thai Street-Style Flavours

    Tosakan delivers authentic Bangkok-style depth across traditional favourites like Massaman beef and thick curries.

    Tosakan serves dishes that, in my opinion, are the closest to the real thing (at an affordable price). The Massamun Beef Curry is divine.

  • Generous Portions for Group Sharing

    Heaped plates and shareable curries provide exceptional value for families and small groups dining together or taking away.

    The serving size is generous and the flavours are so delicious and well balanced. 4 adults shared two entrees, two mains and rice and we left feeling very satisfied.

    The serving was large and fed myself and two children. It was delicious. Inexpensive as well considering it fed three people.
