The food was ok, depending on what you eat. I ordered Ba Mee Moo Dang and this would be the last time I ever trust a picture on any menu again.The soup was mildly seasoned. There was a fair amount of meat included in the bowl so I would give them credit for that.Service was nice and the space was clean. I would come again but maybe order a Pad Thai or something that is more popular.

(FYI - In all fairness, this is based on a single visit and two dishes)I was headed to a dumpling shop down the street when I just happened to park in front of this place. I was in the mood for hot noodley stuff from any part of Asia anyway, so this fit the bill with a much easier walk on a chilly day."Thai Street Food" suggested they probably had more going on than Pad Thai and Golden Bags. Knowing "Zaab" means something along the lines of "Wicked Tasty" I figured it was a safe bet.I quickly spotted the Yum Nam Tok: a semi-salad thing of grilled sliced pork tossed with onions, chiles and a lime-soy dressing. Sprinkled with toasted rice powder for crunch and aroma, it's a personal favorite. 9Zaab does a really great job with this dish. Generously sized as well, allowing me to push it aside for later, then keep picking at it until the next course without finishing it off.The big bowl of Ba Lee Moo Dang (and Fish Ball!) was next. Perfect choice on a half-sunny/half-cold day. The menu billed it as "The most famous Thai egg noodles"* and it had a couple of chile pepper symbols next to it. Most Famous at a place called Zaab! I was waiting to have my socks blown off.Didn't quite happen. The famous egg noodles were a big helping of instant ramen in a big bowl of mildly- oh so very mildly - seasoned broth. The BBQ pork slices were pretty much pink ringed slices of the Chinese Char-Siu take out variety. There were some decent dumplings as well as some very delicious fish balls. They did, however, leave off the cilantro & fried garlic as listed.Over all it was kinda non-zaab... It wasn't bad. There just wasn't much to talk about flavor-wise. I poured some of the Yum Nam Tok dressing into it and added some chiles. It all worked out.Staff is nice, the joint is immaculately clean and I'd definitely give it another visit.*Turns out, all the noodle soups on the menu begin with "the most famous Thai..."Vegetarian options: I don't think I've ever been to a Thai restaurant which wasn't half-vegetarian by default.Dietary restrictions: People allergic to Thai food may feel itchy.Parking: Cambridge Street in Cambridge. Easy(ish) street parking on a Sunday afternoon. Definitely more challenging during the week.

It’s slightly better than some other Thai places, but food is ordinary and small. Service is slow during busy hours. Pad thai was good, boat noodles was mediocre, fried tofu was subpar.

I went there yesterday during a lunch break and I was surprised by how good the foods was. I can confidently say it is one of the most authentic thai restaurants in the area! I love the atmosphere and the service was amazing too. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who want to experience authentic thai foods in the area.

Food was ok, the crunchy pad Thai looks great on pictures but not really in person, very dry. The lemon sauce that comes with skewer was tasty. I was confronted by the staff for not giving enough tip and when I asked how much more, they stated I should tip more. I know tipping is important, but to think that I'm confronted because I tipped less than what they expected makes me think this establishment is literally only here to make money and sees customers as money bag. Hope that extra few dollars were worth this review.

Great Thai street food!! So many options, and you can find great dishes you wouldn't see at most Thai restaurants. Fast friendly service. Casual vibe. Good price. Great stuff all around for fans of Thai!
If u visit mit , remember to visit this restaurant which is one of the best Thai food. I tried tom yum, fried crab, sticky rice with mangoes and more. Staffs are hospitable and nice, the atmosphere is also cozy with Thai style

What an incredible menu.If the ambiance and seating area could only be half as vast as the Menu this place would be world class. Unfortunately the delivery giggers hang out in the middle of the room, taking up space, while waiting for their orders, and the place lacks serious charm as a result.Small restaurant but the kitchen was banging out lots and lots of food with a full staff.I can't wait to go back.

My go-to for Thai food. Menu has lots of options and food tastes consistently amazing. Some dishes can be quite spicy but you can always ask to adjust.

Food was better than the sign made it look outside. Actually very tasty and the waiter gave some good recs. Ingredients seemed fresh, better than some random Thai places I've been too that use too fake tasting ingredients. The location was clean and people came in and out but there wasent a wait.Vegetarian options: Tofu is an option, same price as chicken.
