Truly authentic and delicious. I believe this is the best Thai in Jacksonville. Try warm cinnamon spiced Massamam Curry with a glass of Cabernet for a good fall pairing. I feel lucky to have this place in Riverside.

I lived in Thailand as an exchange student, and I’m very picky with Thai food, but this place is legit. The food taste great and the vibe of the restaurant is great too. It’s my go-to choice for lunch these days.Edit: after the “new” takeover, this place is honestly even better. The massaman curry was the best I’ve ever had in the USA. Super authentic and tasty.

The quality is not consistent. Some days I order and it’s amazing, other days it has no flavor and the meat is dry and chewy.

The new Aroi is amazing!! Best thai food in town. We got the red curry - incredible - the chicken pad thai, crab rangoon, gyoza, crispy bok choy and grilled spicy shrimp - everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. Very clean and excellent service, you won't be disappointed!

AMAZING experience! Instead of waiting hours for Hawkers, take the short trip around the corner to this place! The food was way better, the environment is wonderful and super clean! The new owner was so kind and really informative! HIGHLY

This place has delicious offerings, the ownership is passionate, kind and excited to serve you. The graciousness of the owner/cook/host/bartender/server (she did it all) was impressive and appreciated. A sweet smile and a gracious attitude is a lost art form, but they embody it here. With fun T-pop (Thai pop) playing on the big screen, delicious flavors waiting from my bowl, an extremely clean environment and a friendly owner, this will become my husband and I's date night.

Hands-down, the best Thai restaurant in Riverside! Every time I've been there, the food is fresh and delicious.

Best Thai restaurant in Florida. From the authentic Thai dishes, down to Thai pop and Korean pop playing on the big screen, this place is absolutely fantastic for good people to get a bite to eat. Don't come here and order basic pad thai. Order the Kang or Gui Teaw dishes for authentic Thai food that you can't find elsewhere. I'm not sure you'll find anything more authentic than this place. Absolutely 5/5.

Located right on five points, this spot makes a really good starting point to fuel up for your weekend pub crawl, a relaxing dinner with friends, or date night. Probably the cleanest restaurant I have been in at this price, which is a plus for sure. The food is great too. Enjoy!
I’m here visiting my sis in the hospital and wanted to get her some yummy in her tummy to help the healing and this was the perfect place!! The food was delicious and the sweet staff (Clark) brought some much needed smiles. I felt cared for and about!! Well done you!

Aroi Thai in Five Points is under NEW OWNERSHIP and all I can say is wow. It's a small restaurant that's run and owned by just two people, but the food is awesome. Their food is authentic and if you like Thai food, this is definitely a must try. They have a rotating menu and it's constantly updated on their website. We got the Massaman curry, pad siew, and papaya salad. Sadly I didn't snag a before photo. We had no complaints, even the music was great! Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area.

Locally owned Thai spot serving delicious food options! highly highly recommend the chicken puffs appetizer. they were absolutely delicious and crispy. unique menu item that i haven't seen at other thai places. similar to an empanada if you will pad kee mao was 10/10. pad thai was also really good but i loved the pad kee mao more. we asked for it to be thai hot and i loved that it wasn't just spicy but also had tons of other flavors easy parking is available around the corner or in front!

This was a such a great find With a comfortable atmosphere. We will be back, as I was eyeing the green curry but decided to try something I hadn't had before and ordered the massaman with chicken. An excellent coconut and cinnamon flavored curry that had a sweet heat. We also had the fresh rolls and gyoza, both great along with their sauces. The Pad Pak Ruam with chicken was another entree we ordered and the soy brine made this dish! If you want authentic Thai food, this is the spot. The chef, Nina, is from Thailand and she has brought the taste of Thailand with her.

The portions are much smaller than other Thai restaurants, though they do taste good. The prices are too high for the quantity of food you get, and they only served canned Coke instead of fountain Coke. Go somewhere else.
