The word Sumalee (pronounced soo-ma-lee) in Thai means “flower” and also is our mother’s name…the only person who has inspird both of us for our entire lives. Her philosophy about running a good restaurant has become ours, which is “we are serving our customers only good food and drink with genuine warm service”. And that’s exactly what Sumalee will bring to you all from the very first step you walk into the restaurant
“Breakfast in a Thai restaurant is a stroke of genius and now it's come to Bentleigh in the form of Sumalee.”

“From the greeting you get on arrival to the goodbye when you leave, this little restaurant exudes charm. It may be small but it packs a punch.”
