Absolutely one of my most favorite places to eat. I feel so cozy and at home when dining here! Family cooked meals with love and also the kindest people as well! The Thai Tea is always a delight for a good and refreshing drink! Yum yum yum!

Everything we've tried at Thai Boat has been excellent. We had one mishap in which they inadvertently added chicken to a curry dish, but after that they've been very careful to make our meals vegan. I do wonder why they charge vegan and vegetarian customers more, though: they currently (2024) charge you a fee for not including meat with your meal, which seems very odd. Even so, the menu items are reasonably priced and the portions are generous.

Best Thai food I've had in 20 years of trying various restaurants. Ordering off a kiosk is weird, but they prepped our drinks before we were even done ordering. Service was fast and food was delicious. Chose options on Pad Thai that I hadn't tried anyplace else: mild spice. 10/10. Chicken Satay was crisp outside, tender inside:10/10. Peanut sauce was perfect 10/10. Curry was very good. 9/10.Dietary restrictions: Options to remove / exclude ingredients.

The food is very good and it was quickly prepared. We ate to go, so the service rating is based on the kiosk ordering system. I much prefer human interaction when I order. The atmosphere is a little better than standard "strip mall" style.

Really good ordering experience. Like the venue. It has nice seating outside. The food was filling, so if you like Thai food this is a good spot.

I got garlic noodles with tofu. It was so delicious ?
Drove a long way to eat here specifically because they had fish on the menu. Arrived to discover that we had to order on a big touchscreen display, and that they no longer serve any fish. Ordered anyway and the food was meh. Left hungry.

This place is pretty good. I wish the phone number was listed on google. Also the prices in store are way cheaper than online. Try to phone in on yelp.

First off, loved the ordering process with the stand up kiosks. It made it a delight to see all the dishes and choose what we wanted for our meal. We ordered the spicy eggplant and chili shrimp. Delicious. Lots of flavor, tasted super fresh and looked great. Actual service was ok, as we didn’t get much of a greeting or interaction with our server. We’ll be back for a quick, great meal!

The goods:- Wonderful staff that greets you every minute- Ordering kiosks have pictures for every dish, easy ordering- FastThe bads:- Food is underwhelming.- Beef salad is super overcooked with hot beef on top of raw veggies, and the veggies end up being half cooked. It's also very salty.- Pad See Ew is sweet, despite our request for it to have NO sugar.- Pineapple curry is extremely sweet! It is literally a dish of ingredients soaked in syrup.Not authentic Thai food, and tastes meh...
