Great food and service in this quaint downstairs Thai restaurant located in Harvard Square

We came on a Friday and got seated within 15-20 minutes! The food was pretty decent; my pad thai could've been a bit more flavorful. But the service was AMAZING! Food came out very fast and our waitress was very attentive and welcoming. The sake was delightful, and the thai tea was really delicious! Overall, I would definitely come back and try more dishes. The restaurant also looks small but is way bigger on the inside.

Menu says there are lunch prices (including on weekends) but was told during a lunchtime visit that only dinners are served??? Such a scam!!!

Nine tastes is great and has a particularly tasty red curry. We really miss the in house delivery service they used to have before the pandemic, but takeout is still really good!Vegetarian options: They are good about modifications, though be aware that vegan/veg is not the baseline of their food so you need to be very specific about your order!

Good menu variety. We ordered the spring rolls, scallion pancake, tom yum soup, and drunken noodles. The soup was really fresh and food was served hot.

I was curious on what the vibe would be like since it’s in a basement. But it’s quite expansive and I liked the ambiance. The service was great and the food was tasty! Would recommend.

Received one of two bags for my take out order and had to go back, and after driving back to get the second bag and getting home, I realized I did not get the extra crispy chicken that I paid for. Could not go back a second time for the crispy chicken. The beef soup was unremarkable, and felt disappointed I did not just make food at home. A decent place would have offered an extra dessert or something for making me drive back.

Excellent selection of Thai food and some other Asian cuisine. The curry dishes are all excellent. The duck dishes are slightly more expensive but very delicious.

It seems to be better to make a reservation before you go. Especially at around 7, this restaurant is pretty crowded.This restaurant has variety of food menus. In addition to curries and gyoza of which I took pictures, you need to take time to decide your menu!Because it’s a Thai restaurant, take care not to choose too spicy food if you don’t have strength for spicy tastes.

The lemongrass tofu was perfect. I love that it’s such a large, healthy serving of protein, available steamed instead of fried, and tastes delicious! I can’t think of a better vegetarian protein option in Harvard square.Vegetarian options: The lemongrass tofu was delicious.

The waiter, Bew (if I remember correctly), unfortunately, had a negative impact on our day. She displayed extreme rudeness and disrespect, which greatly affected our plan to have a cozy evening with friends for a meaningful conversation.
