A Night to Remember at Good Thief
Stepping into Good Thief feels like stepping into another world… one wrapped in warm dim light, thoughtful design, and an atmosphere that instantly quiets your mind and awakens your senses. The decor is breathtaking! Moody, elevated, and transportive. It’s the kind of place that makes you forget where you are, in the best way possible.
Our server, Alex, was the kind of host that transforms a meal into a memory. After chatting with us briefly, she curated a bespoke tasting menu that reflected such care and intuition.. it felt deeply personal.
Every dish that came out was a masterpiece, each one better than the last. Alex presented every plate and drink with intention, highlighting the dedication, thought, and passion poured into every element of the experience. Thank you, Alex. You made our night unforgettable!
Let’s talk about the food:
- The Oysters were unlike anything we’ve ever tasted. A true umami bomb, delicate yet bold.. it’s hard to put into words how beautifully they woke up our palates.
- The Grilled Octopus was perfectly charred, with a melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and just the right amount of brightness.
- The Scallops & Pomelo? Divine. The acidity of the pomelo balanced the richness of the scallops in the most unexpected and delightful way.
- And the Garlic Noodles.. silky, fragrant, and addictively savory. A comfort dish elevated to art!
The Feature dishes that night: Grilled Spot Prawns and Steak with Ant Salt, were showstoppers. The prawns were smoky, succulent, and perfectly seasoned. And the steak? The ant salt gave it this earthy, citrusy edge that left us speechless!
We’ve never experienced food that made us feel emotional. But that’s exactly what this meal did. Each bite told a story, and we were completely captivated. 😧
To end our evening, we shared the Banana Cake 2.0, and wow. It was so different, and so delicious. The cake itself had a warm, spiced depth.. comforting yet exciting and when paired with the cool, creamy gelato, it was pure magic! A perfect ending to an unforgettable meal.
And then.. the drinks.
We got the Savoie Spritz, TAC, Pom Pom Punch, Breakfast of Gods, Nhau or Never, Phở Đặc Biệt, and the Cà Phê Cà Pháo. Each cocktail was a symphony, complex, layered, and unapologetically bold.
The Phở Đặc Biệt was shocking in the best way.. spicy, savory, and completely transportive.
These aren’t just cocktails, they’re experiences. Hands down, the best drinks we’ve ever had. The bar is on another level entirely.
To say Good Thief is just a restaurant would be a disservice. It’s a journey. From the dreamy decor to the cohesive, thoughtful service, from the kitchen’s impeccable execution to the bar’s inventive brilliance, this place is nothing short of magic. We walked away feeling seen, fed, and inspired.
This is where you go to fall in love with dining again.
Good Thief is the place to be.
Edit:
We came to celebrate our anniversary after our original plans didn’t quite hit the spot.. and we’re so glad we ended up at Good Thief. Walked in last minute and sat at the bar, which turned out to be exactly where you want to be in a place like this. The vibe, the people, the energy.. everything was just right.
Kait was incredibly kind, and it was nice seeing Alex (our server from a previous visit) again. Joel took amazing care of us from start to finish, even treated us to a glass of bubbly to celebrate! And yes, he was kind enough to include our third-wheel friend too (LOL).
We went with the tasting menu again, it never disappoints. Highly recommend for a special night, or honestly, any night you want to feel spoiled!!
