Wow - This is definitely a notch above the other Thai restaurants in the area. The layout of the menu is perfect for meat eaters and vegetarians. There are 2 fresh beers on draft. Also, the service is stellar - they remember their regulars and the place feels like an upscale family owned and operated restaurant. I would say the drunken noodles are amazing, but after trying several dishes, pretty much everything is great on the menu and the taste really varies between dishes. This place is a hit.

Food was average at best. Calamari was hard not fresh, Pama chicken cashew tasted like ketchup, mango sticky rice was nasty in terms of taste and presentation. Prices were overpriced and the restaurant added an automatic 20% tip for a party of 5. I could tolerate average/poor food, but the automatic tip on a party of 5 and the fact that we ordered over $40 of take out which also had 20% tip applied to it was inappropriate.

Love the food, but sometimes when we order for delivery the background noise in the restaurant is so loud that the staff person can't hear us and we have to actually shout to order.A better system for orders would help!

Food is below average at the price point. service charge 20% on table of 4 adults and child was not appropriate. Three dishes were ordered for Carryout and they were also included at 20% automatic service charge. Overall this is a below average food restaurant with shady tipping practices. We won't be back.

Pretty much the worst Thai food I have had in this area. Nothing really tasted like what I am used to. Spring rolls tasted like grocery store microwavable ones. Paid thai was very stringy and not flavorful even the peanut sauce was not great. Seems like a nice place but I won't be back.

A solid 7.5/10, losing points mostly due to the value. Prices are a bit higher than your typical Thai restaurant with similar portion sizes.I was disappointed about the volume of my cocktail, I got the lychee sangria and without ice, it was probably like 6oz of liquid.The pad thai had a more delicate and balanced flavor than other restaurants where the sweetness, tanginess, or tamarind flavor comes through stronger.The crispy duck ka prao was good, not great, but not very much duck. I think given its location in Potomac, the prices are maybe a bit more justifiable, I think anyone in the area who is looking for a good Thai restaurant would enjoy Pama.The service was great and I really liked the decor with the large wooden panels.

This is the second time we ordered from here this week. The quality and taste of the entree's are excellent. We tried the Chicken Cashew Nut, Calamari, and Green Curry Tofu. The second time we tried the Pad Thai Shrimp, Calamari, and Green Curry Tofu.The Chicken was a little too spicy but the Medium spice in the curry was excellent! I may even try it spicier next time. The service was great and friendly.

This was our first visit here. Loved the simple but elegant decor. The inside dining is spacious and not packed. They have few outdoor seatings. We opted for indoors. The service was fabulous. Now on to the food. I loved Larb Gai and was happy to see it on the menu. It was definitely spicy, but I loved every bite of it. For entrees, we got the Street Noodles and Red Curry with chicken and broccoli. Both were on point. I didn't finish the Street Noodles, so I had room for sticky rice with mango. Yummy. I ate every bite. We look forward to returning and trying other items.

We have been there many times since it has opened. We have had chicken satay, spring rolls and for entree shrimp pad Thai and chicken or tofu drunken noodles. The food is consistently good. Our local go to Thai restaurant.Vegetarian options: Any entree can be had with vegetables or tofu or both.

The food was delightful enough but the service by the lady was really disappointing, straight face, not even a smile while serving, my mom asked for another box to go she did not even respond (although she did get the box). The guy server on the other hand was very polite and attentive.Customer service makes a huuuge impact to me or for anyone for that matter. If you are able to sit at the table at the back talk to a friend and smile and laugh then you should be able to do the same as common courtesy with your customers as well.Again, though the food was good I may not repeat (even though the place is 10mins away from me) just because of the lack of customer service
