“I ordered the happy family and Thai basil chicken fried rice and asked them to make it spicy level 5. Man, I underestimated the spice!! Lol, but I love my food spicy honestly the food was delicious ?, this is now my favorite Asian food takeout in Philly so far. Also, I don’t think you can place the order in person call and place the order and the food takes about 45-50 min to be ready for pick up.“
“I had the tamarind duck from here and personally the sauce was a little too sweet for me, even though I asked for it to be extra spicy. The duck itself was delicious, very crispy and tender. No bones either, which was great. The other folks at my table loved their food (curries and pad Thai) The mango sticky rice was solid. I wish the mangos were riper and a tad more sauce. Really good Thai iced coffee. One thing to note was the service. They were very attentive on refilling glasses of water and they even took my jacket for me. Love the staff“
“I've been a customer of Trio BYOB for almost a decade. And I can honestly say they're the best Thai restaurant in the city. Everything is always tasty and fresh. I like the fact that they have their own ordering website which works very well so you don't have to deal with tech disruptors and they also do their own delivery. The delivery guy is friendly, courteous and kind.But getting back to the food, they also offer creative specials which you can also order via delivery, as well as dining in. That includes desserts. And what desserts! Hazelnut torte, panna cotta. Very impressive. I rave about this place to everyone I know. Stop by and experience Thai food that is a cut above.“
“The food here is overall very good. The green curry is spot on, I think we got medium spiciness which was perfect. The massaman was only OK, not authentic, I won’t order it again. The staff are lovely. I haven’t eaten in so can’t comment on the atmosphere.“
“Was a fan of the old La Na before it went downhill a little before pandemic lockdown. This is in same location but new management and it seems like they are back to providing really good, fresh Thai food! All the vegetables were vibrant and crisp. The sauces were light and fragrant. The establishment seemed to be cleaned up. They could use a dining room refresh but it does give you the feeling of an authentic Thai restaurant, a lot of deep reds, dark browns and black. Service was fun and pleasant! Can’t wait to go back!“
“Anchan is a culinary treasure trove that promises an authentic Thai dining experience like no other. From the moment you step foot into this cozy establishment, you’re greeted with warmth & hospitality that’s as genuine as the flavors they serve. Owners Apple & Adam set the tone with their welcoming demeanor, ensuring every visit feels like a homecoming. The staff, armed with a wealth of knowledge about Thai cuisine, guide you through a menu brimming with tantalizing options. From the zesty Tom Yom soup to the delicate vegetable dumplings & refreshing Som Yom salad, each starter sets the stage for a culinary adventure. The Pad Thai, a perennial favorite, delights with its harmonious blend of flavors, while the crispy duck emerges as a true star, boasting unparalleled succulence & flavor. But the delights don’t end there. Anchan’s curry dishes, such as the green curry with vegetables & tofu, showcase the restaurant’s mastery of Thai flavors, leaving taste buds tingling with delight. And let’s not forget the blue of anchan itself, a charming touch that adds to the restaurant’s allure! From the Anchan rice & tea to the coconut ice cream, every dish is a testament to the culinary prowess of this beloved Thai eatery. In a sea of dining options, Anchan stands out as a beacon of excellence, earning its place as a favorite among Thai food enthusiasts. If you’re in search of an unforgettable dining experience that’s as delightful as it is delicious, look no further than Anchan!“
“So happy to see one of my favorite food trucks is back! Food still slaps after all these years. Love the chicken katsu, which is so crispy and juicy, and I enjoyed a delicious platter today. You can choose tacos, burrito, platter or a burger for the protein options. The peanut curry chicken over rice is also phenomenal but only available on Monday and Tuesday. I’ll be back soon for that plus some shrimp katsu. The folks on the truck couldn’t be nicer!“
“An unassuming thai restoraunt in the middle of nowhere (at least to me as a visitor of the city). It was a small cozy resto with decent service and some lowkey décor. Gold coloured cups was a plus. Chicken skewers - White meat was dry, but the peanut sauce was really good. Pad see ew - pad see ew was tasty. The stirfried dish was seasoned well with lots of different flavour. It was only missing a bit of char, otherwise really good. Would recommend. Some decent food, but as a tourist to the city, I would not be coming back. There are other restos for me to try. But as a local, I can see myself coming back to grab casual meals.“
“Best pad thai I've had. Periodt. I was prepared to be unimpressed with a suburban spot--I admit to thinking "what could the suburbs have that Philly doesn't? and the answer is : this chicken pad thai. It is worth the drive out to Havertown everytime. I wish they had mango sticky rice and more desserts, but honestly if you're looking for an amazing pad thai look no further.“
“They have a $10 lunch special which is unheard of in this economy - it's fallen off the website's menu but you can get any of the typical thai favs (red curry, drunken noodles, etc.) with rice and a side salad. Generous portions, too. Just be sure to call ahead to ensure they're offering it before going in! I'm always a fan of a fried wonton and their golden bags are a good app to pair with your lunch special entree.“
“The Crispy Chicken Basil is my favorite dish. Chicken is tender while lightly fried with sweet basil. Batter shipped green beans are delicious. Everything was spiced just right. Spicy but not too spicy. You may ask for extra. Service is exceptional. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend Viman Thai restaurant.“
“Great little place + very decent prices for these days, i've been steady disappointed by Thai lately and can't afford even a lot of hole in the wall places. It's very rare that a curry is fully flavorful, they were nice, simple cute spot, definitely was busy with tons of takeout, cooked fresh so there was a bit of a wait which seemed normal considering it's a small spot. Rare to find a place worth going back! The Thai iced tea was correct!“
“My husband and I were at the Spector center for squash and looking for a good place for dinner. We popped over to Lemon Grass and had a delicious dinner with the nicest staff. The drunken noodles were just what I needed on a cold, rainy night.I ended up leaving my purse there and they were super nice getting back to me letting me know they had it. They even let us pick it io before they opened.We will definitely be going back there!“
“Really really great find! We typically stick to the same Thai spot, but wanted somewhere new and this place did not disappoint! Started with the Pork Spring Rolls and they were crispy and tasted fresh! We got the Green Curry and it was insanely good. The spice was just the right amount while being so creamy. So good. Also got the Crazy Noodles with Beef and they were pretty great.I will say the ONLY negative thing was that the noodles for the Crazy Noodles dish were just a little gummy, but I really really still enjoyed it.We picked up the items today and everyone was so friendly and thankful. Felt comfortable and the inside was really nice. Can’t wait to eat here again!Thank you guys!“
“Need a tasty authentic lunch before you meander through the Mutter (which has no restaurant)? The dear lady here interrupted cutting and folding her banana leaves to seat a weary traveler taking a few hours of “medical me-time.” Simple and clean, small homely place, only a few steps from the museum. My soup, followed by Tilapia were both super tasty and presentation was impeccable. Belly filled with Thai tasty treats, I took on the museum with vigor and excitement.“
“I had a delightful dining experience last night at the Thai orchid. The staff was so welcoming and nice. The owner went out of his way to check that they had decaffeinated tea for me which I greatly appreciated. The experience was genuinely refreshing. Then the food came out. The green curry was amazing! So creamy with outstanding flavor. The spice level was just right. Not to hot it was uncomfortable to eat, but just enough to make me sweat a little. This is a hidden gem of a restaurant“
“I stopped in by myself on a brutally hot summer evening looking for cold, light food. The vegetarian naam salad was over-the-top delicious. Crunchy and sweet/savory, served with crisp, fresh lettuce leaves for wrapping. Delightful on a hot night. Pad See Eew was a heavier dish, a little bland and pasty (corn starch?), and was better when I added lime and chili oil. The service was outstanding, the ambiance and air conditioning delightful. Definitely worth a visit.“
“First time eating at Jasmine Rice. The food was excellent! Everything we ate was delicious and had great flavors. It is a lovely small restaurant that appears to be family-run. Great service and a nice atmosphere. A hidden gem that has been around for 13 years.“
“While the dusty old interior might give you pause, this is one of the best OG Thai meals in town. Fresh, tasty, and plentiful, the food here is like being welcomed by a most hospitable Thai mom (and yes, the kitchen is run by authentic Thai chefs). Deliciously wholesome and satisfying every time (and vegetarian and vegan accommodating). Plus, the waitstaff embody that same authentic hospitality -- always warm, attentive, and gracious. This restaurant is truly a neighborhood gem.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options, and the kitchen will accommodate vegan too :)Dietary restrictions: The kitchen can make special accommodations.“
“Absolutely amazing Thai food to go. We ordered the Fried Tofu (super crispy and firm but not dried or greasy), shumai (pretty good but a bit dense and could not really make out the shrimp or crab), fantastic Tom ka (order it spicy!), pad Thai, drunken noodles, and sweet and sour chicken for the kids! The noodles were good and spicy and the kiddos loved the sweet and sour. It was such good chicken, the adults even enjoyed. But the cherry on top was the absolutely kind and sweet phone and in person service - which is becoming a diamond in the rough. Super impressed from the first hello to the last bite!“
“Didn’t go there ordered from door dash so I can’t rate atmosphere . I added things in the order and I got all the extra things I asked for in the specialInstructions. Most places ignore that or don’t allow you to do that. The food is delicious they package everything so nicely I’ve only ordered two times but this place is my new go to! Give them a try youWon’t be disappointed.“
“Great customer service. I was here a few weeks ago and the gentleman who helped me was very friendly and knowledgeable. I had asked for a few Szechuan sauces, and he gave me two excellent choices. When I was leaving, he addressed me by my first name and said goodbye and good luck. Thanks guys!“
“An underrated gem, we were told by a mutual friend who happens to be Cambodian, to try out this place for good Thai food in Manayunk. Got take out and we were really not that hungry so ordered just the Noodles and Thai curry. The portions were generous, wait time was short and food tasted good. It was slightly heavy on the fish sauce and that's why not great to my liking . Will definitely give them another try. Can't say much about the ambiance as it is a take out spot.“
“If your looking for true Punjabi food you will not be disappointed in the amount of options they have at this restaurant. There are vegetarian and non vegetarian options for any persons taste. We enjoyed many Tandoor Appetizers that were cooked to perfection. The food came in a very timely manner. The portion sizes was perfect for a large group of people. When you ask for mild you indeed get mild food and if you ask for spicy they accommodate accordingly. I will make this one of my must visit stops when I'm back in the area.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly! There were children with their families here. Very inviting for children“
“Excellent food. Fine quickly to order. Staff is friendly and willing to answer any questions. Especially request like food allergies are handled without question. Spicy level is managed well. I'm not had a bad meal here. I just wish they sold the soup and gallon drugs because it's so good.“
“Some of the best Thai food I've had in Philadelphia. This place is a hidden gem. They have new owners and a new chef, and I've been blown away. I loved the braised chicken with curry, crab fried rice, the massaman curry, fried whole fish, grilled marinated pork... everything. I've been twice in a short period. Go for the specials and the items that aren't on every American Thai restaurant menu. The owner is very nice, and the staff are happy to help you through the menu.“
“Got take out tonight for me and my parents and everything was absolutely delicious!!My dads go to is the Tom yum soup and it’s his favorite soup ever! Kind of the only time I see him enjoy eating vegetables! He gets the vegetable one even!I got the massaman chicken curry and it was the best comfort curry ever! The sauce is creamy and awesome flavor with the peanut and classic curry veggies! It was really tastySorry I didn’t take a pic cause I’m eating the leftovers right now and just needed to review“
“We recently lost our Aunt and Da Shin was her favorite place to go, so on the night before her funeral, a bunch of family went in for dinner! The service was great and the food was just as good! We gave 4-stars because the atmosphere could use some cosmetic updating but other than that, it's a great local place to get some good Chinese food with attentive service!“
“Venturing into a culinary escapade at "Surise 2" became a highlight for our group, especially for our friends visiting from Baltimore. This dining experience was more than just a meal; it was a journey through delectable Thai cuisine that left a lasting impression. The unexpectedly light and non-greasy fried rice not only surprised us but also became an instant favorite among our party. Our customary Pad Thai "litmus test" received high marks, adding to the overall positive vibe of the evening.The standout moment, however, was the owner's generous gesture of gifting us a serving of crab Rangoon on the house. This unexpected treat showcased the restaurant's commitment to ensuring a memorable experience for its patrons.Sharing this adventure with our friends from Baltimore added an extra layer of enjoyment, turning a simple dinner into a shared experience filled with laughter and camaraderie. We're eager to return to "Surise 2" and explore more of their menu, knowing that each visit promises not just delicious Thai dishes but also a welcoming atmosphere that makes dining there a genuine pleasure.Vegetarian options: Fried tofu in the curry was amazing.Parking: Lancaster avenue Street parking can be difficult at times.“
“Almost didn't want to review because the secret would then get out. Very low key place, sparsely decorated yet comfortable, far from crowded. But the food is oh so delicious. Fresh ingredients, expertly prepared, flavors galore. Friendly service as well. No longer need to go into the city for good Thai food. Go now before it blows up and you can't get a table.“
“If you are looking for a secret place, this place is that spot. If you adore Mom and Pop restaurants with a pallette for creativity, do not look any further outside of this menu.I called in trying to find some vegan options since everything sounded amazing. The family went above and beyond to make sure what I ordered was vegan. They even called me back to verify what I could and could not eat for clarification even though there was a language barrier. They made sure to double check in person the second day. They made me feel as if I was home and the flavors were fresh and made with love.It was like fine dining made with comfort. The prices you can not beat anywhere for those portions And flavors. The menu was definitely made by a Chef with an awesome pallet for creativity which is meticulously refined. The dishes are homemade from what I ordered down to the peanut sauce. Mouthwatering.Buns are not vegan....but I was told they are made from scratch and they are vegetarian if you don't add meat.Authentic Thai Cuisine in my opinion. Just the spicy peanuts alone with these Thai limes. Wow.The rice is flavorfully fresh and seasoned.The summer wraps are a breath of fresh air.I had to order two days in a row for how addicted I am. If I was not from out of town, this would be my go to spot a couple times a week.“
“Super convenient location with parking. Excellent vegetable tempura the best I've had from a small business. The steamed dumplings were also excellent. I'm used to crispier Gen Tao, but the sauce had a nice kick. Take out or dine in. For take out, I recommend that you order once you arrive because everything stays crispy and fresh if it doesn't sit around. Let's support this small business!Wheelchair accessibility: I don't recall any steps to the entrance. There might be a curb.“
“This is hands down my favorite Thai restaurant. I work in Conshy and we frequent here for their amazing lunch special. Soup/App/Entree that’s 14 bucks! My favorites are the Tom Yum Soup, Thai Dumplings, and Evil Jungle Princess or Drunken Noodles! They have 4 levels of spicy with level 4 being Thai Spicy and that is amazingly good! Spicy but still so flavorful. Everything I have ever gotten has been delicious and fresh and are always willing to accommodate any requests I have. The staff is always pleasant and quick but you don’t feel rushed. I live outside of Conshy and brought my friend this week to try and we both agree it’s worth the 30 minute drive!! Don’t skip the Thai iced tea, that is also delicious! I can’t recommend this place enough.“
“Blind order via Door Dash....1st try.Called to vet the spot.. I got questions!Septo picked up... he was super cool and advised me that they were closing for the day at 3pm and assured me that if I ordered they would deliver by 530 ish as they reopen at 5pm He answered my questions and we hung up. Order pre placed and I waited. Nervous as my stomach doesn't like surprises lolFood came...it was still on the warm side and I tasted.. wow I was happy.I requested my onions be chopped down finely.. and asked for sweet and sour sauce.. they missed the mark on those but food was tasty. Thai Fried Rice with Extra Chicken...no tomatoes No Broccoli. Simple like I like it.Thank you! I will visit & Order again.“
“Me and My Bestfriend took a hour long bus ride just to get some food from here it is that delicious an worth it and they not stingy on they portions like all hood Chinese stores they were friendly great customer service I will definitely be going “
“The pad thai has the perfect amount of flavorful, delicious sauce in it and the crab Rangoon is some of the flakiest, crunchest and well filled I've ever had. Very reasonably priced for the amazing quality of food and although I didn't eat inside, I stopped to pick up my food and it is super cute in there!Vegetarian options: Tofu was perfectly cooked“
“First time stopping by, and the owner couldn’t have been nicer. We had a nice conversation about Vietnamese food. Got the spring rolls and Pho, both fantastic! The broth was authentic per the owners description, and it tasted amazing. Plenty of sprouts and basil too. I will definitely be back to try out some of the other menu items. Thank you!“
“Found this place using Google Maps. Glad I did. The BBQ ribs were yummy and the Tom Yum Soup with seafood was soooooo good! Food came quickly and was hot!Parking: If you are staying less than hour I think tye garage parking is free, but if you dine in tye restaurant you can just pay with your bill $5.“
“Very delicious food at very reasonable prices!My first time here I got the chicken pad thai and it was delicious - light and not too greasy but very filling, the noodles had a good flavor and the chicken was very flavorful as well. Make sure to squeeze the lemon on top as well!Second time I came here I got a noodle dish as well which was good! I think I would recommend the pad thai more.Very low key, more of a casual lunch spot or a informal dinner with friends. Worth a visit though.“
“I ordered beef pad thai, cheese steak egg rolls, sticky rice, and crab dumplings. All 3 items were delicious and authentic and the restaurant was clean. The only minor complaint I have is that I wish they would have had more beef in the pad thai, but I do understand restaurants cutting back due to high costs. I will definitely return. Delicious.“
“Excellent food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. I’ll be coming back soon!Vegetarian options: Each dish had a vegetable option, and it was fresh and varied. I’d never had Tom yum soup with vegetables before, but it was delicious!“
“Finally found a Thai restaurant nearest to me . While I don’t find the food authentic I do find it delicious. They charge extra for everything so it easy to run up your bill. While I like small portions, you may have to order an appetizer or extra meat to be fully. I started out ordering pick before dinning inn. Pick up time is accurate and food was hot. My dine in experience was great, nice small intimate dinning space. Staff were attentive and our food was hot when it arrived to our table. This is vegetarian paradise! Most meals have the option to have meat added. This is now my daughter’s favorite restaurant.“
“Great east meal in Ardmore. Been getting the poke bowl here for years. It is still my gold standard for poke bowls. I’m yet to have one anywhere else that comes even close. It’s huge as well so it’s a good value. My family eats here every week. It’s consistently good and the employees are wonderful. I recommend the crunch bowl with extra crunch and avocado.Parking: If you are eating dinner at the restaurant I recommend parking just behind where the bank is. Once the bank is closed the parking is up for grabs and it’s right next door.Kid-friendliness: My little nephew loves to come here and they are super sweet to him.“
“I’m a fan of Little Basil. They are within walking distance from me and I enjoy their food! Sometimes it takes a bit for someone to notice me at the register for pickup but I mean, they are working hard so I can’t blame them. I’m happy to wait for a good meal for an affordable price!“
“Amazing food!! We got the Beef Pad Thai spice level 5 and it was super super spicy and super good! This is my first time ordering from here and I will definitely be ordering more! One of the best Pad Thai ! The portions are huge ! But very filling and highly recommended! Must try and glad this place is local to us. These pictures represent just one serving“
