The best Thai food I have ever had. The place was very nicely decorated with colorful pinks and fresh flowers on each table making it inviting. The food was excellent and very authentic. I highly recommend the Thai Sweet Tea as well

Hands down, best Thai food in the area. I have been to Thailand on a number of occasions and this is the only spot in Monmouth county (and New Jersey as far as I've found) that even comes close. Beyond that the owners are unbelievably friendly, helpful, and kind.I really can't sing the praises of Moo Yai enough. Everytime we are in Sea Bright it's a must stop. Looking forward to years and years of meals from this gem of a local staple.As far as our specific order. Papaya salad is a must and I am an absolute sucker for the pad basil with pork. My wife loves their gluten free mindfulness and my son absolutely crushes anything with a good flat noodle (in fact, I sent him to daycare today with leftover pad woonsen for lunch!)Dietary restrictions: My wife has celiacs and never has a problem. We've been dining here since they opened and it's never been an issue. The staff are mindful and supportive of her restriction.Kid-friendliness: Our son loves going! The fish tank is an easy distraction while we eat.

Take out we were very disappointed. The last time we ordered it was great! Last night was awful ordered woo shrimp and my husband got the sweet and sour beef. With numerous Appys. The portions were small the shrimp had 4 small shrimp and the beef was barley beef just veggies. For an dinner costing $20 plus dollars. I don’t think there was $5 worth of food in either dish. We were both starving. We won’t be back . Total bill was $90 disgraceful.

The pad thai is way too sweet, and not flavorful. I am not sure why Drive ins and Dives put them on the show. There are plenty of Thai restaurant that deserves the DDD but not Moo yai thai. I gave it 2 chances and both are disappointing. They charge $2.5 for water when it should be free.Sorry only 1 star from us!

Hands down the best Thai food I’ve had in YEARS! I live full time in nyc and come down to Monmouth beach on weekends and I can tell you I may travel down JUST FOR THIS FOOD! Get the pork appetizer & I loved the massaman curry too! I can’t wait to try everything on the menu!

Excellent family-run takeout place. No frills / no waiters dining with a few small tables. Food served in plastic containers but they now have silverware and plates.

Really happy this restaurant opened in Seabright. The food was consistently delicious from the spring rolls to the green and red curry. Currently the place only offers takeout or you can eat at a few tables inside but there is no waitress service. Highly recommended.

Tried this spot tonight for the first time and dined inside. No waitress service you order at counter and eat out of the plastic Pad Thai was pretty solid! Thats all I had

Nice owner, nice service and small but nice place inside. I personally found pad Thai to be too sweet but was ok. Fried rice was better. Quantity was too less for the price they charge. But I guess it's for the location. Also they add a surcharge for credit card.
