About Sauce Thai Street Food

A quieter spot along the Canley Heights strip, Sauce turns out unapologetic Thai and Lao street cooking built for sharing. Tables fill quickly with big groups passing around nam khao tod, smoky grilled ox tongue, and bowls of tom yum soup loaded with giant prawns. The kitchen does not hold back on heat or regional depth—pad see ew carries genuine wok hei, pink broth anchors the yen ta fu, and herbal Lao sausage comes paired with house dipping sauce. It feels like an easy neighborhood secret, right down to the unhurried service and zero fuss over bringing a celebration cake.

  • Lao and Thai Street Specialties: The kitchen balances Thai street staples with regional Lao specialties, from crunchy nam khao rice salad to herbal Lao sausage and tangy yen ta fu.
  • Family-Sized Portions: Generous share plates feature sizable proteins, including tom yum soup with giant prawns and whole grilled barramundi.
  • Fee-Free Celebration Dining: Group celebrations get complimentary cake cutting and plate service without added cakeage fees.
