“Hubby wanted Pad Thai for his birthday today - so we got regular Pad Thai, Pad Thai w/ Crispy Chicken, Mango Fried Rice, and for dessert we tried the Mango Sweet Sticky Rice… everything was delicious and honestly probably enough food for a week! One order of Pad Thai is definitely 4 meals in itself! Will definitely be ordering from here again! Deeeeeeelishussssss!!!“
“I passed by here and went in for lunch for the first time. We ordered chicken Kapow lunch and Chicken Claw egg noodle. It’s good that they offer lunch and dinner two options. Since I can’t eat a lot, I can order lunch with smaller portion and cost less about $12.95. The food is okay, not amazing. Like street food as it says or like food court food. I’ll give it 6/10. The restaurant has big long tables with long wood benches. I like how spacious and roomy it makes customers feel! Good for a quick bite!Kid-friendliness: They offer high chair for children.“
“Ordered through delivery. Food got fast and hot with perfect portions. Well packaged.The pad Thai with pork was very meaty and delicious. The tom kah gai was spot on and had plenty of chicken and mushrooms. The panang neua was good, I have had better and worse. Crab rangoons were enjoyable when eaten with the pineapple sauce.It was a bit of a rough weekend, so a delicious Thai meal through delivery really hit the spot. Would recommend!“
“Outstanding food! Really top notch Thai food Have been going here for years. Mostly take out. When I have popped in for a quick bite, the staff has been very friendly. Wish it was a bit more of a sit down place but I can't imagine not having this spot as one of my regular places.“
“My aunt is Thai and once I moved to Boston she implored I visit for authentic Thai food! This is the most reminiscent of authentic Thai food like I used to get when I visited!! Cannot recommend this enough!!! Basil fried rice and massaman curry are incredible!!!“
“Some of the best Thai food I have ever had. The fried chives were so good. The curries were so different and delicious. The shrimp and pomelo salad along with the green papaya was tasty. They have a bar opening soon and I can wait to check it out!Vegetarian options: Quite a few options to make things vegetarian or that are vegetarian.“
“The food at this place is delicious, and they offer items which a lot of other nearby restaurants do not. I have gotten take out and eaten there, and I have enjoyed both experiences. If I had to choose one thing that I disliked about this restaurant, it would be that I wish more of their delivery options could be made without sugar/palm sugar.“
“It was an enjoyable lunch overall. The wait initially between placing an order and the appetizers coming out was a bit long but once the appetizers came out, the rest of the meal came out quickly too, with generous portions. All three of us left VERY full and barely could finish the three noodle soups and two appetizers!“
“Feel like something's changed in the past year or so. The food doesn't seem as cared for and has lost some of it's charm. not sure if just a bad day or if the chef has changed but other way feeling a little sad. still tasty but not the WOW it was “
“I have ordered from this restaurant and the food is very delicious but please read the instructions. On our last order we asked for non spicy food and everything came with the highest level of spicy to the point that it was almost non edible.“
“We made reservations online for the Omaska. It was $300 which broke down to $120 per person with tip and tax. The tables were perfectly space out. They gave us a 2 hour limit which was enough time for the 12 course Omaska. Presentation on everything was amazing. Each course was fresh and delicious in their own way. It was hard to hear the man over his mask so I couldn't get any names. We had uni, tuna belly, scallops, and more. All the Courses were small but packed with favor. You can take there was attention to detail in the ingredients and presentation. Definitely, worth the money was a special event like a birthday. Would definitely come back“
“I ordered the veggie steamed bun and vegetarian ramen, and both were delicious. It was refreshing to find a vegetarian ramen soup with a flavorful base other than miso. The steamed bun was particularly tasty. As a solo diner, I felt comfortable dining alone. The restaurant had a quaint atmosphere, and street parking was available.“
“Last semester, I was commuting to college and often staying late on campus to avoid traffic. I came to this restaurant so often for dinner, that the owner herself now recognizes me by both name and appearance.She is the sweetest lady ever, she radiates hospitality, and her smile is like sunshine. Her and her partner make great food, always reliable and comforting, and easily my go to for a quick take out meal when I’m in the area.Now, my boyfriend and I come here almost weekly for dinner and she always welcomes us with a warm smile and delicious food. Thank you Ching!“
“Very nice sushi place. It is not very big, but had loads of small tables for two and four. I came at 7 o'clock on a Saturday and could only sit at the sushi bar itself (four seats) They had a nice set of sushi options, including an all salmon, sashimi and rolls.“
“Reasonable prices and good amount of food! I really enjoyed the crispy chicken khao soi! The khao soi was not very spicy, mild but the tables are provided with condiments where you can add spices to taste. Thai iced tea and thai iced lime tea both yummy. Friendly service and super quick to get your orders! The dishes came out super quick! Pretty small restaurant but cute interior, and there was no wait around 2pm on a Saturday.“
“Pretty good food! Parking is a little difficult because the restaurant doesn’t have its own lot. Plenty of seating and we were the only people dining in at dinner time on a Monday. Not the best thai food I’ve ever had but certainly wasn’t disappointed.“
“Tip: Usually good amount of street parking a nice ice cream place nearby for dessert.This place is definitely a must try if you like pho. I usually go to “pho viet” but honestly this place might be just as good or even better. Unfortunately I cannot say the ramen was as great as it was okay. But I would definitely come back to try another pho or even the Thai noodle soups. Price-flavored value is p good.“
“Amazing place. My girlfriend and I are regulars, the price and quality are just unmatched.The food is kind of a southeast Asian fusion. Honestly it's very unique and I haven't been to many restaurants that serve and pull of these kinds of flavors. Strongly recommend.Try their brunch menu. So cheap, but so, so good.“
“Pho and Rice really impressed me, especially their Bun Bo Hue, which is the best I've ever had. Generous portions, rich flavors, and a cozy atmosphere make it a must-visit spot. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine.“
“(FYI - In all fairness, this is based on a single visit and two dishes)I was headed to a dumpling shop down the street when I just happened to park in front of this place. I was in the mood for hot noodley stuff from any part of Asia anyway, so this fit the bill with a much easier walk on a chilly day."Thai Street Food" suggested they probably had more going on than Pad Thai and Golden Bags. Knowing "Zaab" means something along the lines of "Wicked Tasty" I figured it was a safe bet.I quickly spotted the Yum Nam Tok: a semi-salad thing of grilled sliced pork tossed with onions, chiles and a lime-soy dressing. Sprinkled with toasted rice powder for crunch and aroma, it's a personal favorite. 9Zaab does a really great job with this dish. Generously sized as well, allowing me to push it aside for later, then keep picking at it until the next course without finishing it off.The big bowl of Ba Lee Moo Dang (and Fish Ball!) was next. Perfect choice on a half-sunny/half-cold day. The menu billed it as "The most famous Thai egg noodles"* and it had a couple of chile pepper symbols next to it. Most Famous at a place called Zaab! I was waiting to have my socks blown off.Didn't quite happen. The famous egg noodles were a big helping of instant ramen in a big bowl of mildly- oh so very mildly - seasoned broth. The BBQ pork slices were pretty much pink ringed slices of the Chinese Char-Siu take out variety. There were some decent dumplings as well as some very delicious fish balls. They did, however, leave off the cilantro & fried garlic as listed.Over all it was kinda non-zaab... It wasn't bad. There just wasn't much to talk about flavor-wise. I poured some of the Yum Nam Tok dressing into it and added some chiles. It all worked out.Staff is nice, the joint is immaculately clean and I'd definitely give it another visit.*Turns out, all the noodle soups on the menu begin with "the most famous Thai..."Vegetarian options: I don't think I've ever been to a Thai restaurant which wasn't half-vegetarian by default.Dietary restrictions: People allergic to Thai food may feel itchy.Parking: Cambridge Street in Cambridge. Easy(ish) street parking on a Sunday afternoon. Definitely more challenging during the week.“
“This is just one of Laughing Monk's locations! This location is closer to Boston in the Allston area so it's much easier to get to with public transportation. Food: I got the Tom Yum soup and the Pork Belly skewers. The soup was so hearty, delicious, and warm. I loved the sourness of the soup. Unfortunately, the noodles were clumpy and were breaking apart. This is such a fixable mistake so that wasn't great. The pork had good seasoning and liked the fish sauce it was paired with. Ambiance: This is a smaller location than the Wellesley or Boston locations but allows for more casual dining. Price: It was about $18 for the soups. Not bad for Boston pricing but I wish there were more noodles in the soup and that the noodles had been loosened before. Overall, I would go again just to try other dishes and it offers Thai dishes that not every restaurant offers.“
“Mi Soul is a great miso soup ramen, the pork is esp tender and generous.Ten Yum was solid, very simple(just noodle and shrimp) and was mild/medium spicy.Poke was good, fish was very clean tasting, and a good amount of rice. I only wish they had spicy mayo as an option, more Seaweed or furikake for crispyness, and a little more cabbage to go with the large amount of rice. Great to have the option given the other poke spots are about a mile away.“
“The food was excellent so I'd give 5 stars just for that but they went above and beyond to cater to our kids food allergies, which is always difficult when you are traveling and have to eat out.The lady then took time to speak with our boys, ask them they're name and wrote it out in Thai on a piece of paper for them to take home as well as teach them how to pronounce it. Our boys were super happy.I would 100% return.Dietary restrictions: Allergies“
“This place is great. I work at BU and once a month or so I make it here for lunch. It's consistently good and the employees are always friendly. It's casual and perfect for a midday meal. And look up their story online- it's so sweet. Nud Pob means "meeting place" in Thai.“
“Solid Thai Spot in Fenway.Came here a few weeks ago while I was looking for a quick Thai meal in the area. There aren’t a lot of good Asian restaurants in Fenway, but Thaitation seemed like a good option.Along with Thai Iced tea, we got the Shrimp Tempura and the Duck Chili. The Shrimp Tempura, which also included an assortment of vegetable tempura, was coated in a thin, crisp batter. It was exactly what I expected to get from a typical neighborhood Thai spot, and I especially enjoyed the broccoli tempura. The Duck Chili was also enjoyable. Though the duck itself could have been more tender, the dish was elevated by its spicy sweet and sour sauce and a delectable concoction of onions, pineapples, tomatoes, dried chili, and mushrooms.Overall, a good spot for a quick Thai fix in Fenway. Not sure if I would come back, but if you’re looking for a solid and affordable Thai food, I recommend giving them a try.Parking: Paid street parking along Peterborough st or near Isabella Gardner.“
“I really fell in love with the sushi bomb roll. I ordered it from DoorDash with some vegetables rolls & both were great. It was my first time trying sushi as well from an actual restaurant so it was very Good to me. The sushi was 15 dollars & the rolls were 5 dollars in my opinion it was totally worth it. I’m going to bring my family there one of these days to try out other stuff they have.“
“Great curry here. The delivery fried tofu is no match for the one at the restaurant though. The last time I went in person it was so crisp and delicious and the one I had delivered felt like it was reheated from a fried tofu packet. Please bring back the crispy one it was so good!“
“Do what I do. Ask for a large entree. Decline the rice or noodles. Instead of choosing 3 things to add to the large entree, choose 2: the grilled-looking chicken and the steamed-looking broccoli. They ought to fill the container with those 2. The sauce they put on that chicken is carbs aplenty and you get a delicious balanced meal for less than $10. Used to go here near daily for work. Miss this spot.“
“My mother in law had a ratatouille style transcendent experience with the tom khar gal soup. Everyone else at the table similarly agreed their food was top tier, excellent. Service was attentive and prompt, and the dining area was beautiful and small enough to feel pretty intimate too. Only knocking off one star because one of the seasonal drink specials was a pumpkin spice chai tea which turned out to be just a Stash brand tea bag that you can buy at the grocery store, nothing special or added. That was disappointing but everything else was fantastic and I will definitely go back.“
“The vibes are so good in here, super clean and the decor is rlly cool! I got the babe ribs and the meat was SO JUICY AND TENDER a bit spicy for me but just right… get with rice and you will def have leftovers. Thai tea was good too and the fresh spring rolls were super yummy. Everyone is very friendly and it was v “
“Stopped by for a rainy weekend late lunch. We were seated right away. I ordered the bun bo hue and it was very good. Soup was savory, not too salty. I ordered the steamed mixed veggies on the side, probably wouldn't do it again for the 3.95 price point - very small portion and the veggies were barely steamed. Good experience overall, will come back just for the bun bo hue!“
“Pi was awesome and super friendly.I have been here before but today I felt like the staff went above and beyond. I will certainly come back. I ordered the lunch special they have from 11am to 3pm. Basil fried rice and crab Rangoon was absolutely amazing. I was thinking about taking some home and ended up eating all lol.“
“I love to eat Malaysian food at this restaurant! It's tasty!Roti Canai, water cress with preserved bean curd paste sauce and Hainanese chicken are my favorites at this restaurantThe atmosphere is like having food with family. The service is fine, but I expect the food more than service hereWill come back with my family when we visit Boston“
“Coincidently I stop by Somerville today , I just found this delicious Thai chicken over rice , we ordered the heat and the mix , also Thai ice tea , believe and not I love it a lot , because it is not too sweet and tea favor stay fresh, also the sauce just match with chicken very well . It also comes dikon soup , I tasted like my mom soup , ( not just water with dikon) surprise me . Highly recommended, will definitely come back again. I was too hungry, forgot to take the pictures. Hopefully we can come back soon .“
“Great value for the money, and good calm atmosphere. The entree servings are generous. I almost always take half home for another meal. My glass of wine does add expense. My favorite is the Rama Garden with chicken, and a side order of brown rice.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant steps and entry would be difficult for a wheelchair.“
“AMAZING. Ordered takeout from a small Thai place and the food was better than I was expecting given the size of the location. The person that gave me my food was kind and there were a few tables inside. The food was absolutely amazing. Some of the best Thai food I've ever had. It was spicy, sweet and cooked perfectly. You need to check this place out!!!“
“One of my Thai friends in Boston recommended Thai food at Pad Thai Cafe for lunchIt's small take out and some dining in space to eat food with a bathroom inside the restaurantThe food was scrumptious and authentic. My friend and I enjoyed eating the foodThe service is attentive and friendly. This restaurant is one of my options if I'd like to have Thai food in Boston“
“I love these little hole in the wall places that give you homey Ambiance and quick turnaround when it comes to food because not many people know about it or come in to eat. But many do take out at this place. The food is always good and so is the Thai iced tea. Been coming back even though I don't live in the town anymore.Parking: In the back. Not to many spots“
“Very good! They brought the spice! Only wish they gave some sauce with my crab Rangoon (I think they must’ve forgotten the sweet and sour sauce) and the sauce with my fresh spring rolls wasn’t my favorite. Pick up was quick and containers were full :)“
“So good - I'm vegan and love good Thai food and this place is as good as any place I've ever been. I told the folks at the front what I wanted and 5 minutes later I had a beautiful dish of tofu, broccoli, and drunken noodles. Next time I'm around I'll be back!Vegetarian options: Ask for what you want and don't want, that's it. Staff is friendly and smart, they get it.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“Had an awesome time at Soup Shack in Porter Square! Kevin, our server, was super cool and made us feel right at home. Everyone there was just so friendly, making the whole vibe really laid-back and welcoming.Now, let’s talk about the ramen – it was killer! The broth was on point, and they even had homemade kimchi that added just the right kick. But the real game changer? The marinated egg. They actually take the time to marinate it, and you can totally taste the difference. It’s those little touches that make me love this place.If you’re around Porter Square and craving some legit ramen, hit up Soup Shack. Great food, cool people, and an all-around chill spot.“
“This place is a hidden gem tucked away in a little strip mall in Winthrop. The interior is very nice and classy enough to impress and there's a separate bar area. The menu is pretty big with sushi, the usual Thai noodle and rice dishes. Lot of good soup options as well. The service was great and the food is fantastic and you get a good portion for the price. Definitely worth checking this place out if you want good Thai without driving into the city.“
“I have ordered pad Thai from this restaurant over 50 times. Recommend topping with peanut sauce, lime, and chili flakes or sriracha sauce. The rest of the menu is hit or miss, so I highly recommend you try the pad thai before you try other dishes.“
“Amazing!!! My wife is Thai and we were transported back to Thailand! The pad Thai was flavourful, the chicken wings were crispy and juicy, the crab Rangoon’s were the best I’ve ever come across - perfectly crispy yet gooey in the center. My wife enjoys the spicy salad and you cannot go wrong with egg rolls or any of the other Thai favourites. Would highly recommend!! Thank you for many great meals!“
“Decent food and great service. We showed up mid-afternoon and there was no one there except us. We were greeted by a friendly waiter who showed us where to sit. In terms of the food, the Pad Thai was decent, although I would have preferred more chicken. The prices were standard for Thai food and the area. Overall, would go back!“
“This establishment is a must-visit if you are craving good pad thai. I've found myself ordering every variety they have to offer at once point or another. I've had a smattering of other dishes and they were all equally fresh, well-prepared, and tasty. I should really try more of the menu and see how well Lemon Thai pulls off other Thai staples, but the pad thai is so good I can't stop coming back to it, haha. Also, the people who work here are kind and helpful. Love to visit!“
“This place is awesome. I don't necessarily like everything on their menu, but the things that I like are awesome. I am pescatarian and not a fan of their meals that contain eggs for some reason (I usually like eggs but not when cooked a certain way), but so far their foods that don't contain eggs are all good to me. I like their spicy basil sauce. My favorite meal is their spicy eggplant. If you have tried one meal and didn't like it, I do recommend you give them a second chance. The place is very relaxing, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. They have a big menu and I am going to try more of their foods.“
“I've ordered from here quite a few times, always the same dish, Cashew Chicken. It's always pretty good, but the dish does seem to vary based on the day. Most recently I got it and there were a few chunks of pineapple in it, the dish was overly sweet with no hint of spice to it what-so-ever. Usually there's a bit of chili flavor and a zing of ginger, but this time it just tasted like soy sauce and pineapple juice, a little disappointing. Always quick service and friendly employees when I pick up takeout.Parking: There's some street parking, but you have to pay for it and they do monitor this street regularly and give tickets if you don't pay.Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible. Quite a few steps to get into the restaurant.“
“Nice quaint restaurant with very attentive and helpful staff. We were told that the menu was online. We ordered our early dinner appetizers and meals and they were nice, hot and very fresh. We started if with the edemame and steamed gyoza. Simple but fresh. Then we finished off with yellow curry with brown rice and a mango salad. The mango salad was amazing. My mom became addicted and has had us order it for her a couple of times since. The food is great but a couple of things that we did not like was that we were served our Thai Iced Tea in plastic to go cups and the menu that is online has no description of the dishes. The pictures are nice but think it would have been helpful if we had a description of the i gredients.“
“Amazing customer service coupled with the most delicious and fragrant panang curry = the best combo. The mild spice level I requested was indeed, mild. Something I can rarely find and it hit the spot in the best way. I'll be thinking about this place until I'm back in Calgary next month. Thank you!“
