Relaxed Thai restaurant with colourful interior and leafy outside space for dining al fresco. Takeaway available and is fully licensed with BYO wine, too. Great for casual Asian cuisine.

The Keo Thai Restaurant & Bar specialises in tasting plates, designed for sharing, and there's such a good range of flavours coming out of the kitchen, you'll want to taste a bit of everything anyway.

Some of the highlights include Tom Yum Gai Soups (quite hot!), Pad Gai Satay, Gai Pad Khing and the very hot Pad Kaprao, for serious spice lovers only. The seafood dishes are particularly impressive, with the Gaang Keo Goong (prawn green curry) being of the restaurant's most popular signature dishes.

Take advantage of the laid-back atmosphere (and the heated patio!) to get yourself a good value, authentic Thai meal on one of Christchurch's most up-and-coming culinary strips.
