26 Best Thai Restaurants in Boston

“Im writing this review a couple years after dining here. I had the short rib curry and it was fantastic. It unfortunately isn't on the menu anymore. But I see the owner has a sister restaurant, chayen in watertown, that still serves it.

It was an unctuous red curry base with great fragrance from lime leaves. The dish also turned me into a fan of peas.“

“We made reservations online for the Omaska. It was $300 which broke down to $120 per person with tip and tax. The tables were perfectly space out. They gave us a 2 hour limit which was enough time for the 12 course Omaska. Presentation on everything was amazing. Each course was fresh and delicious in their own way. It was hard to hear the man over his mask so I couldn't get any names. We had uni, tuna belly, scallops, and more. All the Courses were small but packed with favor. You can take there was attention to detail in the ingredients and presentation. Definitely, worth the money was a special event like a birthday. Would definitely come back“

“The fried pork dumplings The crispy chicken teriyaki fried rice plate The crispy pork belly fried rice plate“

“Thai place boston is the best place to get great thai food if you are in the area the wait staff is amazing and the food is so good I can’t wait for them to reopen so i can go back!“

“Went here on a Monday night when most other places were closed.

We got the thai pancakes and the thai garden salad for appetisers. Super pleased with them.

For entrees we got the tofu pad thai and chicken ginger make your own thing. Pad thai was great. Chicken was a little boring but cant complain because i ate everything and almost licked the plate (can we normalise that please).

Also! The host, Dit, was great, thank you for being so awesome“

“It was very good.. must try..“

“I have been a Freshman on the campus of Boston University for only a few weeks. I did not find myself homesick in the slightest and found myself rather content with the food at nearby dining halls. Eating here in this cozy space with such a friendly waitress is such a contrast to packed, noisy dining halls with somewhat, periodically nasty food staffs (at least towards the later hours of the day), and it cured my homesickness I didn't know I had. I highly recommend this restaurant to other undergraduate students like me in need of a nice meal in a comfy space.“

“Great foods and Great services !!! Stop by and try it out !!!“

“Excellent food and service! Will try it again soon!“

“It was very good! I ordered a level three spicy though, and almost couldn't eat it, beware!“

“Best Thai food in Boston This is my wife’s favorite food.“

“About two weeks ago, I came in to order some food. The cashier recommended the Chicken noodles soup at the shop and especially mentioned that the lychee drink was really well-made — and it truly tasted amazing. She also said she could cook the noodles, and I actually saw her making them. And the flavor was really great — awesome! I secretly gave her a $5 tip.“

“The best food I ever had the the shrimp rice was amazing and it’s my first time here! Next time a come here I want to try that kimchi fried rice“

“I am so lucky I got to live near House of Siam for the summer. I went here frequently for Togo orders and dined in as well. My favorite dish is the pad-C-U. Absolutely delicious food every time I went. Staff is SO friendly and helpful. A couple times I had my dog outside and they would give him a treat 🥹 going to miss this place SO MUCH!“

“I am trying to do take outs here and there nowadays to help local businesses survive covid19. This place is amazing! Firstly, it is clean and I feel comfortable getting my food here. Secondly, the food is so good you would want to go back. Do try yellow curry and pineapple! Thank you guys!“

“I visited 151 Pearl Street in Boston and found the spot lively but not overly crowded. The staff were warm and attentive, though I noticed a few tables waiting briefly. The Hot Basil with seafood was flavorful, but portions felt modest for the price—more sauce would’ve been nice. Parking nearby was tight, but manageable. A small suggestion: maybe offer extra sauce on the side for those who like it extra. Overall, a pleasant stop with good energy.“

“Beautifully plated and always delicious. The staff is phenomenal and caring and attentive and the owner is a wonderful man. Always goes above and beyond to make sure customers are happy“

“melhor comida vegan do mundo! Almoçamos 3 dias seguidos. Melhor opção saudável para quem está de viagem e quer uma refeição leve e saborosa.“

“Great food and service equals great value!!“

“top of my head said lets go to NP NP FOREVER 😍🥰🌎🌈💗“

“Mi Soul is a great miso soup ramen, the pork is esp tender and generous.Ten Yum was solid, very simple(just noodle and shrimp) and was mild/medium spicy.Poke was good, fish was very clean tasting, and a good amount of rice. I only wish they had spicy mayo as an option, more Seaweed or furikake for crispyness, and a little more cabbage to go with the large amount of rice. Great to have the option given the other poke spots are about a mile away.“

“I'm not a huge Thai fan but this place might change my mind. Three great dishes. And they came out so fast, they beat the appetizers. That was good because we were hungry. But not a place for a leisurely meal. Space is a cramped basement.“

“Delicious! Great service! I'd be here all the time if I lived closer!“

“I came here on a very stormy and windy day. For context, I am a Singaporean, from a country right next door to Malaysia. The Hainanese chicken with rice was extremely authentic and delicious, on par with the best I have had in Singapore and Malaysia. The food arrived quickly and restaurant's service is efficient and warm. I also love the ambience here.“

“My third visit to Thai Basil and I will be back again. Great Pad Thai - alot of good food for a reasonable price. Singha beer from Thailand - what more could you want? 5 stars out of five. 👍🏻“
