50 Best Thai Restaurants near Waltham

“I just ordered my first meal here and it was very good! You now have a repeat customer. The food was fresh and flavorful.“

“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!!!“

“Visited for the first time recently with a friend who had been there before the renovation, and she mentioned there has been an improvement overall, both in terms of the space itself and the food. The interior is now modern, clean, and much more polished than what you might expect from the outside. It creates a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.
Service was efficient, and all dishes arrived surprisingly quickly.

We ordered fried rice, scallion pancake, gyoza, and two versions of the double-fried chicken (spicy and garlic). The spicy chicken was flavorful but closer to a medium spice level rather than truly spicy (I’m used to eating quite spicy food, including Korean dishes like strong kimchi jjigae, so I have a good reference point). The garlic version leaned slightly sweet, and the garlic flavor itself was more subtle than expected. The texture was very crispy, as expected from double-fried chicken, although not especially juicy. Those specifically looking for juicier fried chicken may want to try their Korean fried chicken instead.

The scallion pancake was good, albeit more fried and dense than the lighter, flakier style some might expect. The gyoza were very enjoyable, with good flavor and texture. The taro smoothie was excellent: rich, well-balanced, and one of the highlights of the meal. They also appear to offer a full range of bubble tea drinks.
Value was a strong point. The total came to around $50–60 for two people, including drinks (a Saporo beer in addition), and one of us is a big eater (me 😳), and we still had leftovers. Given the portion sizes, quality, and setting, the pricing felt very reasonable.

Overall, a very solid experience. While a few flavor profiles could be slightly more pronounced, the atmosphere, efficiency, and value make this a place worth returning to. It’s also nice to see how much effort they’ve put into improving the space. Well done 👏“

“The food was fresh and fantastic! Service was excellent !“

“Very fresh and flavorful food. Friendly staff. Will return to eat in or order take out.“

“I am Thai and I highly recommend trying the Yum Salmon if you enjoy seafood with explosive flavor sauce/dressing instead of plain wasabi, and don’t miss out on the papaya salad for a wonderful balance of flavors. Pair it all with the pandan leaf drink for a complete experience!“

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

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

“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!!“

“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 best chicken..:definitely“

“I stopped in here while traveling. Wow, I happened upon a great spot! The place was packed when I walked in around 6pm. People were frequently in and out grabbing to go orders. I knew I must be at a good restaurant and boy was I right! I sat at the bar that was well stocked, unfortunately I couldn't drink this night. I ordered green chicken curry and went to the bathroom, by the time I got back it was sitting on the bar already. I couldn't believe how fast they were. The food was great and staff was friendly. Most restaurants could learn from these folks.“

“I've not had Thai food much but decided to try Eggs and Thai with my family. It was the most delicious food I've ever had. The flavors were amazing. The variety on the menu was great too. Service was the best! I highly recommend anyone try Eggs and Thai, not just the best Thai food but also the best food!“

“Just an absolute gem. A small dining room awaits you with the most amazing people. I brought my son, and one of the employees put on cocomelon for my son to keep him happy.

The food was amazing! I’ve spent a lot of time in Thailand and have to say everything was delicious! Just an excellent place to eat dinner and find your favorite family owned Thai spot!“

“Small corner shop, so service and atmosphere are minimal, but fine considering.

Really it's about the food and the price: excellent flavor, perfectly cooked. Tight menu, and everything is delicious and flavorful. My favorite crab Rangoon so fresh, but honestly it's the pork belly over ginger rice that should bring you in. We come so often!“

“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!“

“I don't write many reviews. For me to write a review a restaurant has to be either really bad and amazingly good. Sugar and spice is amazingly good Thai food! My wife says it was the best pad thai she's ever had. My son had the tamarind duck, which I sampled, and I had the kanom jean nam ngaio (see pics). Both were sooo good. Service was very friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back!“

“It was very good.. must try..“

“10/10 would recommend. We ordered the Penang curry, chicken teriyaki rice bowl, beef satay, steamed gyoza and samosa. The peanut sauce with the beef was 🔥🔥. All incredible.“

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

“Green curry was fresh and delicious and the Thai basil rice , not heavy in oil but looks of flavor. Especially for New Year’s Eve. Everything taste very good and fresh.“

“Came here twice and really enjoyed it! Food is delicious, servers are so kind, and it's so beautiful inside.
This place is really quiet, even on a Friday night, which is good for me, but this place needs more customers for sure!! Come & check this place out!“

“This is such a hidden gem! We ordered chicken pad thai, shrimp fresh rolls and pad see ew. The broccoli was super fresh and perfectly cooked. Chicken was tender. The fresh roll was HUGE. The heart stickers on the boxes was such a sweet touch. Fresh, delicious and great value for the money. The space is small, just a few tables. More of a takeout spot. Will definitely order from here again. If they could add Pad Woon Sen to their menu, I would be super excited!“

“I had been following this restaurant for a long time since I came to Boston area, so I was so excited to be there. As “Uncle Roger” says, “not bad, not bad!”

Creamy Tum Yum Noodle Soup: The Tum Yum soup broth was exactly authentic. It provided a strong taste of both tangy and spicy, exciting my taste buds and increasing my appetite. As for the ingredients, shrimps were fresh and bouncy, char-siu slices were crunchy but not greasy, while the lime added extra zing to the soup.
But to be frank, unfortunately I could still taste the gamey smell from the refrigerated pork, even though it had been that heavily seasoned.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“This restaurant is really awesome. I ordered a tom yum sort of thing that was way too spicy for me. The server was super nice and kept telling me I needed to finish all my food 😅. The food is good but I didn't order the right thing for me, but the service made up for it.“

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

“Highly recommended! Super delicious and nice service :)“

“I got the crispy duck curry, some thai hot tea, and a coconut cake for dessert. The curry was delightful and filling, and the cake was moist and not overly sweet. Overall a wonderful meal. The staff were attentive and kind, and the vibe very cozy. Definitely will be back!“

“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.“

“We've always wanted to try this place and we finally got a chance to try it. It did not disappoint! We tried the Fresh roll with avocado, red curry, both were great! The drunken noodles stole the show. They were amazing. Great service, ambience. Highly recommended!“

“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 🎶“

“Their food is awesome.
And I have to give a big shoutout to the front desk auntie (possibly owner), so the other day we dined in, and I left my Thai milk tea unintentionally.
Five minutes later I tried to retrieve it, she quickly admitted that she trashed it and offered us a new one in a few minutes.
Amazing service and amazing lady!“

“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!“

“Delicious food. Friendly atmosphere. Yummy drinks“

“The soups are to die for. The sushi and sashimi and maki are all excellent. Every appetizer is delicious, the service exceptional, and the food comes quick. A wonderful place to sit down and also to get take out from. I cannot recommend this place enough. My girlfriend and I have loved this place for months and months and will continue to come back as often as we can :D“

“Decent food with good portion sizes. though pricey!
The Japanese dishes are pricey.
The place gets packed at night especially the weekends. Inside is a bit too tight with not enough room to move at times. It’s relatively too small.
Either remove tables & chairs or get another place. It does get noisy when there’s lot of people considering how packed it gets at times.
Service was acceptable though it needs more staffers.
Difficult to find street parking.
Clean shared bathrooms.“

“This place is SO SO good. It isn't that I didn't like all of Brookline's many strong solid Thai options it is just that this place wow'd me from the start. Every dish I get here is just a notch above other places.“

“Always a very enjoyable experience! I like my Thai food very spicy and they are always very accommodating. Big menu with a wide variety of options. Highly recommend to give it a try!“

“Secret find!! Food is amazing 😉!!!“

“Excellent! Pad Thai with Crispy Chicken“

“If you are looking for Thai takeout that is real fresh and delicious, you should try Rice Cube Thai Kitchen on Lowell Street in Lexington, Massachusetts. The food here is not only very good, it rather reasonably priced as well. Enjoy - Robert .“

“Food is very flavorful! Truly a hole in the wall and found it by chance cause we didn't want to eat inside Natick Mall.
The tom yum was flavorful with a kick, it's on the sweet side which I like. The curry with the duck is very tasty. No fancy decoration or table setting. Nice staff and good tasting Thai food, no BS! 👍“

“Spice & Pepper has a really appealing atmosphere that draws you in and sets the right mood for a flavorful dining experience. The space is warm and well designed, living up to the energy the name suggests. The food and service, however, both land in average territory — the dishes are pleasant but could use more of the boldness and depth the name promises, and the service could be more attentive and consistent. With stronger execution in the kitchen and front-of-house, this place has real potential to be a standout.“

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

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