Crying Thaiger Rustic Thai Kitchen

There isn’t better Thai food in the greater Boston area than here. Pad see ew with vegan duck, pad Thai, Crying Thaiger curry, drunken noodle, and the baked rice clay pot are all repeat orders in our household. I was previously a Brown Sugar fan before I was vegan, and even if Brown Sugar had better vegan options I wouldn’t change my alliance back. Everything I’ve had from Crying Thaiger is so much more flavorful and delicious. And whatever it is they do with their vegan duck is magical. I want to try more dishes but it’s hard when the things I know are already so tasty!

Got the vegan duck pad thai and vegan duck baked rice. Both were tasty. I got take out but the place had a cool and cozy vibe to eat in. Peeps were nice. Parking was tough. I would go back sometime.

Great food and service! I recommend the signature dish Crying Tiger.

I recently visited Crying Thaiger in Malden and had a generally good experience. The food was quite enjoyable, especially the Pad Thai, which I would highly recommend for its authentic flavors and well-balanced seasoning. The service was solid, though it could have been a bit more attentive. The atmosphere really stood out, offering a cozy and welcoming environment perfect for a relaxed meal. Overall, it’s a nice spot for Thai food, and I look forward to coming back to try more from the menu.

This is the best Thai restaurant in the Boston area in my opinion. Brings me back to flavors from a recent trip to Bangkok. Menu goes far beyond the usual suspects and is a mixture of classic and creative fusion.

We tried the roti with green curry, the spicy Basil pad Thai, and the pineapple claypot rice. To drink the Thai iced coffee and iced jasmine tea.

The roti was extremely crispy and the curry gravy creamy and delicious. Spicy Basil pad Thai (we modified to mild) was mind blowing with a textbook perfect spicy-sweet-sour sauce and springy noodles. Pineapple claypot rice was coated in yellow curry with juicy chunks of pineapple, shrimp, and chicken and a crown of pork floss. Jasmine iced tea was very intensely jasmine flavored and scented.

There were many interesting cocktails and dishes on the menu that I’d like to try e.g. Tom yum infused sake and crab paste omelette. We played it a bit safe with our order but will be back to try more!

Crying Thaiger could have gone the Mahaniyom route: made their decor more fancy, miniaturized the plates, and doubled the prices. Lucky for us they kept it ‚rustic‘ so we can go more often.

Vegetarian options: They have vegan duck on the menu in addition to the typical vegetarian options!

Ordered a drunken noodle for pick up today.
Got a STAPLE in my dish. Took it out of my gums and took the picture.
A WHOLE ASS STAINLESS STEEL STAPLE IN MY NOODLES. ARE YOU SERIOUS???????
IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I SWLLOWED THAT.
AND THIS CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE THAT COMES TO THIS PLACE.

I've been here several times and I keep bringing friends and family to introduce them to this great restaurant. Everything I've had is delicious, and the people who work here are lovely. Great service, really comfortable and cute atmosphere.

The chicken thigh massaman curry is astounding. I also have to order the chive cakes every. single. time. The pork belly is phenomenal, I've tried similar dishes at other Thai restaurants and none are nearly as good. The pork is cooked perfectly.
