nice balance between the spices and sauce used
Recommend the buldok chicken lunchbox

Quantity of chicken is ample and filling, has room for improvement with the quantity of rice offered as opposed to the price of the dish.“

“Great food and staff! Will visit again!“

“My favorite place for Chinese food. So fresh and amazing. You have to try the chicken egg foo young with its special sauce. To die for!!!“

“We go to this restaurant about once a month.Frist thing to do is get a cup of Thai tea. It's so nice with the hot weather! I really like this restaurant environment, their decoration is so beautiful, it gives people a calm feeling. Their food was so hot and delicious. we ordered a lot of it every time. The owner also a very nice sweet person! My kids love her. You know most time, kids hate staying in the restaurant! I love this restaurant so much!“

“The best chicken..:definitely“

“I'm not typically a review guy but this place is truly incredible. Chicken, rice, and daikon soup is all some of the best I've had in Boston, the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and it's a cute little place to eat in or get takeout. Highly recommend the spicy chicken and the chive cakes, and can't wait to go back!“

“The Chicken Kao Soi is not only a phenomenal soup, deep and flavorful, but one of the best meals I’ve had in a LONG time!!“

“The best Thai food I’ve ever had. Truly fantastic.“

“This little cafe/restaurant is nestled in an alley next to a general store, it gives speakeasy vibes. The place is small, but clean and welcoming. I want to say it’s family owned, but I am not sure.

Their menu has breakfast/lunch/dinner options, plenty of options for vegetarians as well. We started with some scallion pancakes, they were crisp and delicious.

We ordered their drunken noodles with vegetables and basil fried rice 🍚 with egg and tofu. Their noodles 🍝 were saucy( I like when they are not dry, so I loved it) it also had the perfect level of spices, lots of veggies like broccoli 🥦 🫑 🍄‍🟫 🧅 🥕

The basil fried rice was okay, I have had better basil fried rice for sure. The taste was good, but I had higher expectations.

The Thai cold coffee🧋was the highlight of our meal. It was so perfect, that I would have had another glass. Strong coffee with low sugar, just how I like it.

Our experience was very good, and we look forward to visiting this place again.“

“Small place with authentic Thai offerings and great service! For appetizers, my wife and I had the shumai and crab rangoons. For entrees we had the pork belly curry and the grilled lemongrass chicken. Delicious and would definitely recommend!“

“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“

“very good food decent price . will return for more...“

“The food is amazing! I totally forgot the name of the dish but the pork with noodle dish with the fried rangoon was amazing def recommend 🍜. Crispy chicken basil is also good and I recommend it with the sticky rice 🍚. The Hor Mok (salmon, shrimp, etc. curry inside a coconut 🥥) is pretty good too! The mango sticky rice is a go-to dessert 🥭“

“Best Thai food in Somerille. Recommend Khao Soi the best“

“This Thai restaurant was recommended by a friend, and it did not disappoint—absolutely delicious!

The Leng Zapp was amazing: the soup is sour and spicy, and while the first sip might be intense, it gets tastier once you get used to the flavour. The pork ribs were incredibly tender and flavorful—highly recommend! The pork leg had a slightly sweet taste, but it was well-seasoned and paired perfectly with the rice. The overall price is reasonable too.

The only downside is the limited seating, so be sure to arrive early!“

“Great tasting food and customer service is amazing. New ownership!!! Tried a bunch of apps and food. Fried gyozas were super crispy as well as the wings! nice noodle soups and I love the curry. I will have to be back to try more of the menu. Milk tea and Boba available as well as my always favorite Thai ice tea!“

“We went in a large group of 10 people. They were able to accommodate us seamlessly event though they probably have about 30 seats. The food came out quite quickly. All the dishes were all very delicious. We had chicken satay, spring rolls, larb chicken, fish cake, grilled squid, crying tiger, padthai, duck curry, chicken basil leaves, pad si ewe, Tom ka seafood, fried rice, hadyai fried chicken with sticky rice and mango sticky rice. Everyone really enjoyed the food. The service elevated our experience of eating here. I decided that this is my favorite Thai restaurant in Boston. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing, fresh, authentic…served with a smile.“

“Very welcoming. I got there about an hour before closing so I picked my food quickly. I had the Creamy Tum Yum and added a little chili oil to it for some spice. It is a great dish for someone who wants flavor with little to no heat. There was plenty of pork and two shrimp tails. I also had the Thai Tea which from the picture in the menu I was worried was a premade mix. Instead it came out fresh and required me to swirl it around to blend the cream. Perfect flavor and temperature. Not overly sweet like some places make it.

The atmosphere was laid back with some cool art work on the walls. Definitely gave a college town feel. The bathroom could use some work. It wasn't scary. It was clean and well stocked but it is definitely on the back burner when it comes to decorating.

I'm surprised they don't have merchandise. Their logo would be a cool patch on a hat. Seems like most restaurants are doing this now and I'm here for it. Better than buying shot glasses.

Anyways, check the place out for some good hot pots, ramen, etc. when in the area.“

“It was very good.. must try..“

“พอดีซื้อมาลอง 1 กล่องเป็นข้าวมันไก่ผสม อร่อยมาก เหมือนที่เมืองไทยเลย รอไม่นาน 10/10 It is a scrumptious meal for my alone dinner. The taste is original and the portion stuffed me perfectly.“

“Somtum is my family's favorite place for takeout when we want to treat ourselves. My husband and I went to Thailand on our honeymoon, and every time we order from here, it takes us back. He's a regular with green curry or drunken noodles. I love the Tom Kha coconut soup and the Larb salad. My kids don't like spice but they love the crispy pad thai. Don't sleep on the Thai iced tea- it should come with a warning label, because it's addictive.“

“Perfection! I can't say enough about the magic-potion cocktails, flavorful dishes, cool vibe, fun staff and locals 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Such a sweet new find! Everything was delicious and reminded me of my time in Thailand! We will definitely be back!! Thank you!!“

“Wow! The Grapao is soooo good—this place is the jackpot. Five stars all the way“

“I love Noodle Street! Went for the first time with friends and was charmed by the amazing food and homey atmosphere, but was even more impressed today when I came in alone. There is a woman who I think may be the owner? who is so kind and really made me feel taken care of on a rough day. This is easily one of my favorite restaurants in Boston now because of the warmth and love she radiated to all the guests.“

“I had a wonderful dine in experience at Laughing Monk in Boston! The food was incredibly good truly authentic Thai! The menu was special and exciting with so many tempting options. The taste was so wonderful, I felt like I was eating in Bangkok. We drove 1.5 hours to get here, and it was absolutely worth it! I can't wait to return!“

“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!“

“Little spoon is just delightful! The staff are warm, the setting is cozy and relaxed, and the food is all delicious and fresh. We’ve been many times before and I highly recommend little spoon to anyone looking for a great Thai meal, or a dinner in Needham.

Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian dishes or dishes that can be made vegetarian. The fact that the curries have a vegan base is uncommon and amazing.“

“Absolutely amazing Thai food. It’s the best in the Boston area. We will definitely be back!“

“On a family trip in Mass. and stayed @ Hampton inn. This was very convenient and close by and even 20 minutes before closing they attended me with a smile along with great hospitality. We ordered from the main entrees which by portion size was very filling and I of course had sushi while waiting for them to complete my order.
It was mouth watering and extremely delicious!!! Hands down the best I ever had. Thank you for the great food and great experience at your restaurant!“

“Allergy friendly. Accommodating to dairy and egg free. Also they don’t cook with MSG and was able to alter the pad Thai so it wasn’t cooked with fish sauce. My MIL usually reacts to Thai food but she felt good after eating here! So glad they could accommodate us. Food was yummy. The beef satay was a little on the tough side however. We still enjoyed our food very much.“

“We enjoyed our Thai Pancakes, Shrimp Pad Thai, and Mango Sticky Rice. The staff was so sweet with my son too. He's 2 years old and still learning to eat outside quietly. He approves of the Thai Pancakes...he tried to stuff a whole one in his mouth. Going back to try their fried rice...my Dad made Thai Fried Rice for us growing up. So, I am excited to try theirs.

Also, I am gluten free and dairy free. So, all the dishes we've tried meet those requirements.“

“Delicious food. Friendly atmosphere. Yummy drinks“

“Very NewYork-esk. We got there by bycicle. I do recommend to have a locking cable for your bicycle(s) once you get there. Across the street theres a parkin lot, but I dont know if it belonges to the Japense place across the street. Thaitations is hole on the wall kind of spot. With great service and even greater tasty food. We actually saw Asian people in the back cooking the food. Lol. BUT the place does need more love and restoring, to make the bathrooms and ceiling, at least, more appealing to the eye. People nowadays take pictures whereever they go these days, specially where they go eating, and I, as a tourist, like to go to places where not only the food and service is great, but also the ambiance. Which is the reason why I gave this place 3⭐️ for atmosphere... Now, the food and service deserves 5⭐️. The people who attended us were fast in acknowledging our presence as soon as we went inside, (you jave to pull the doors a bit hard due to some positive air pressure inside), and giving us a table and menu. The menu has plenty of choices. All delicious choices. Including vegan. I liked that they go into detail about all the ingredients for each choice. ⚠️CAUTION: if you don't like spicy food, or spicy food doesn't sit well with you, this is not your style of cuisine. But if you do like spicy, you'll find this is AMAZING FOOD. I ordered the Roasted Duck Curry. It came in a ceramic pot. The presentation was excellent and the flavors even better. Accompanied with white rice that I poured inside the pot. And enjoyed with water and an Iced Lemon Tea. Let me tell you about this tea. It is amazing. Sure, it is a bit steep in price for iced tea. But it is worth it. It felt like I was drinking a medicinal, refreshing, tasty elixir. If someone can remake this drink and add vodka in it. It would be the sensation of the party. I also had a coffee ☕️ (which they served in a ceramic cup. I hate it when I am served hot drinks at a restaurant in a foam cup). So I really liked that.) And for dessert I had the Vanilla Fried Ice cream. Imagine the flavor of a warm crunchy donut, with sesame seeds and honey on it, with the insides of a cold vanilla icecream...yeah...I know.“

“The people are amazingly helpful. The food was so good. We had ordered a delivery from Grubhub but love to go in person.“

“Secret find!! Food is amazing 😉!!!“

“Ordered shrimp + chicken pad thai and tofu red curry for delivery today. Delivery was quick (earlier than Grubhub's ETA), and the delivery person was very polite and appreciative of our business. The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were HUGE. I am picky about my pad thai and was favorably impressed by Thai Moon's. Hope my family and I can go here once restaurants open their doors again.“

“Great service and excellent/affordable food. Try the miso soup (I added tofu), the chicken basil fried rice, the veggie spring rolls, and the red/massaman curries. We have visited here a few times now and it definitely won't be the last. Cheap drinks available too!“

“This place is amazing! The food is both delicious and beautifully presented. It looks impressive, and I always order here. The place is always packed with people.

One time, they brought me calamari instead of shrimp, but they quickly fixed it. I really appreciate such great service, and they even treated me to a smoothie as a gesture.

I highly recommend this place! Great food, excellent service – 4 out of 5 stars! ❤️“

“The service and food were amazing.“

“Pepper Sky's is a cosy Thai restaurant run by a nice family, just near where we were staying during our trip to the Boston-Cambridge area. The food is delightfully good and we decided to come here for dinner on 2 occasions! We had their Crispy chicken with fried rice and tom yum soup, and iced thai tea the first time. The portions were so large that we were glad we ordered to share. The crispy fried chicken is indeed crispy on the outside with their homemade crust and tender on the inside. the second time we were there, we ordered the classic Pad Thai fried noodle, Green Curry with noodles and another order of the Crispy chicken with fried rice. The quality of the food is consistently good - so authentic to the South East Asian taste! You must definitely try this place out when you are in the area.“

“Food were delicious and customer service was a plus. My hubby is very picky when it comes to restaurants food but yesterday he ate all his food and said your place was great just the salmon was a little bit dry. I will suggest a little play of soft music 🎶“

“So I noticed that Newton has a restaurant called Coconut Cafe, and I thought it would be funny to get a picture of a Lime Bike inside the front door, because “you put the Lime in the Coconut” and all that, so I went over there today, and the place turns out to be pretty nice and I was already feeling like this wouldn’t be a particularly polite (or funny) joke, but anyway the closest Lime Bike I could find was about a block away, and when I tried picking it up to bring it over to Coconut Cafe to maybe get a “put the lime *by* the coconut” photo instead, the bike started talking to me, saying “PLEASE PAY ME A DOLLAR AND YOU CAN RIDE ME! PLEASE PUT ME DOWN OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE! THIS IS YOUR SECOND WARNING, I AM ABOUT TO CALL THE POLICE.” and I decided that this stupid joke wasn’t worth getting arrested for and at that point I was too annoyed to pay the dollar to unlock the bike to ride it a grand total of about 30 feet for a joke photo that the owner of the shop would justifiably get mad at me for anyway, so I left the bike there and just had lunch instead (Bangkok-style veggie pad thai, they told me it would take 15 minutes but then it was ready in about 1.5 minutes, so that was nice) and it was delicious. Thank you for reading my story have a nice day.“

“Simply the best and freshest Thai food you can find in Massachusetts! We have been eating from this restaurant for more then eight years and I have not found better Thai food anywhere else. Being on a low sodium diet it is hard to find a restaurant that will cook food not drenched in salt. Dishes are cooked to order and requests are always granted. This is a family owned business and they are just fantastic people. This is a take-out restaurant although they offer great luncheon specials at a very fair price if you happen by during lunchtime. Highly recommend!“

“Always excellent. Friendly. Brilliant blend of spices and flavors.“

“Man, the food at this place, especially the drunken noodles/pad kee mao, is heavenly. It really is something else. It’s affordable and the staff are nice and respectful as well. Definitely would recommend. I moved to the west coast and every time I visit MA, I make sure to take a trip to Spice & Pepper. That’s how GOOD it is.“

“I've been visiting Krua Thai for a few years now and the taste is consistent and amazing. Run by a family , the food is delicious and the curries have just the right level of spiciness.

Their main business is takeout. It's a small restaurant (seats about 20) in a strip mall. There are only five spaces in front, but plenty of parking in the rear. The service is great and the hostess is amiable and attentive.

You just can't go wrong with this place. If you want thai food and live around Natick there is no better place than this. Period.“

“I highly recommend this place“
