I never thought I would say this, but it’s just not the same. I used to love Malai. I think I’ve been getting food from there since it opened. I got chicken pad thai last night and I’m throwing it away after trying to save it. It just tastes sweet and not at all like pad thai, the crushed peanuts tasted like they’ve been sitting in a closet l for years, there is a really stale taste. I also got curry, which I always love. But it just wasn’t great or even good, It lacked flavor. I tried to fix that too. The curry was better than the pad Thai. In the past, I’ve had chicken wings, which are amazing But I don’t think I’m gonna chance it and get them again I feel bad posting this review but I just threw away $40 on food that I’m going to throw away.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this place! I have celiac, but was accommodated with a wide variety of gluten free options. The lunch menu paired our meal with a FREE mini appetizer and soup, and my chicken and broccoli with rice was DELICIOUS. Service was amazing and very fast, waiter was so sweet. I will be coming back :)

I found a metal object in my crispy pad thai noodles!!! I don’t know what it is exactly but I could’ve swallowed it and this is extremely unsafe and unsanitary. Never buying food from here again.

This place is excellent. They make good authentic Thai food. At a pretty reasonable price, the service is good. They have the best fried ice cream around

I recently dined at this amazing Thai restaurant and was blown away by the experience. The food is incredibly authentic, with bold flavors and fresh ingredients that transported me straight to Thailand. Every dish we ordered—from the pad Thai to the salad—was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The restaurant is spotless, with a clean and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about customer satisfaction. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes you get. It’s rare to find a place that delivers such great taste, service, and value all in one. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Thai food without breaking the bank!

I have been coming here for a few years as a vegan. Ordering the same food items everytime, paying the same price. Yet suddenly a menu item that mentions it includes sauce for the dish, comes without it, and they want me to pay an extra sauce charge. The first 8 times purchasing the item it came with sauce included no extra charge. But the last 3 times I purchased it (almost $14.00 on a small rice dish) it came with no sauce, hence dry with no flavor. Upon almost placing an order and inquiring why I had not received the *included* sauce, I was informed I would have to pay an extra charge to avoid having a dry flavorless meal. Atleast now I can take my business elsewhere that does not lie and overcharge in the first place.
Been our Favorite for over 25 years......Always Excellent experience...

Great Thai cuisine! Good is so yummy and the menu has something for everyone which makes it very accessible. Very healthy portions. Trust them when they say spicey.
Vegetarian options: This is a god to spot for me and my vegetarian friend. Most dishes can be made vegetarian in addition to their clearly labeled vegetarian options.
Parking: Small lot on the side of the building. Lot is on a one way street. There is street parking out front.
This Gra Pow was one of the best I've ever tried... I got a 3 level hot,and it was perfect...if you don't like pepper get none or a 1 level.

Very yummy. Had the green curry and a noodle dish and both were delicious. Good prices for portion size - we had enough left over for lunch the next day
