50 Best Thai Restaurants near West Roxbury

“Got the tofu and vegetable soup to start things off, and it couldn’t have been more bland. Things got a lot better with the green curry with tofu. Nice and spicy and a fair portion. Enjoyed that I could get sticky rice on the side. Food was piping, hot and well packaged. Unfortunately, it came with no utensils or napkins, even though I requested them. When will I ever learn to just rip open the neatly stapled bag at the restaurant? They charge a convenience fee even if you order for pick up. I guess it’s correctly named as it makes things more convenient for them to not have to take your order manually.“

“Amazing lunch!

I just moved to the area, and the people here are friendly and attentive.

I will be coming back for sure.

Pro Tip: One of the most bang-for-your-buck lunch venues in Boston.

Soup, salad, 2 veggie rolls, and a lunch portion entree all under $12 Leaves a generous tip!

Vegetarian options: Any menu item can be made without meat.

Parking: Street parking or lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp on front door.“

“Tiny hole in the wall. They primarily do takeout. There are two tables that seat a total of 6 and four chairs for people waiting for their order. The food was pretty good and came quickly. There is NO air conditioning.

Parking: On street parking, but it's free. It's on a heavily travelled street, so you may have a hard time finding a spot.“

“Best place for Thai food in and around Boston, period. The Basil Fried rice is one of the best I’ve ever had (as good as the best ones in NYC) . You also must try their Kapow Dumplings (the sauce is ❤️)! Definitely my go to place for Thai!“

“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 chicken..:definitely“

“A very popular Thai restaurant in Porter Square. I’ve been here several times, and the dishes are generally good. The papaya salad, spring rolls, fried shrimp and tom yum soup noodles were very good. However, the coconut cream-based curry soup noodles were too much salty and greasy, and the noodles were dry. Despite this, I would still recommend it as the best Thai restaurant in the Cambridge area!“

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

“The fried pork dumplings The crispy chicken teriyaki fried rice plate The crispy pork belly fried rice plate“

“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“

“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!“

“Eggs & Thai Cafe is a hidden gem in Dedham! Nestled in an unassuming location, this cozy restaurant serves up some of the most flavorful and authentic Thai cuisine I've ever tasted. The menu is extensive, with classic dishes and unique creations, all prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
My personal favorite is the eggplant basil. It's a simple dish, but Eggs & Thai elevates it to extraordinary heights. The eggplant is perfectly cooked – tender and flavorful, with just the right amount of char. The basil sauce is rich and aromatic, with a perfect balance of sweet, salty, and spicy flavors. It's a dish that's both comforting and exciting, and I find myself craving it regularly.
The rest of the menu is equally impressive, with standout dishes like the Pad Thai, Panang Curry, and Drunken Noodles. The service is friendly and attentive, and the prices are very reasonable. Whether you're a Thai food aficionado or just looking for a delicious meal, Eggs & Thai Cafe is a must-try destination.“

“Originally only got some mango sticky rice for take out but when I went in, the restaurant smelled so good. I ended up getting the red curry as well and it was perfectly spicy and sweet. One of the best curries I have ever had and good serving size with decent amount of meat. Will be coming back for more soon!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Absolutely outstanding Thai food…and in Brighton of all places! Each dish is truly authentic and flavorful. The cocktails are excellent and well balanced. I’m particularly impressed by the pad Thai because the noodles are served al dente with a good chew, instead of being overcooked like many other establishments.

The only issue I have is with the atmosphere, it’s a small space so the tables are crammed fairly close. Also the seats are really uncomfortable. The food makes it worth it though!

I’ve been here three times and I am still excited to come back again. If you’re coming on the weekends, make sure to reserve as it gets busy.“

“It was very good.. must try..“

“Great first time !! Will return again !“

“Great foods and Great services !!! Stop by and try it out !!!“

“Was in town for a few days and was told that this place was amazing ahead of time so managed to snag a reservation. Glad I did as it lived up to my expectations. The food was great, I recommend the crispy chicken skin to start. Those were some of the best crunch I've ever had. For the main, I went and tried the Crab meat fried rice and it too was awesome. Will come back whenever I get the chance when I'm in the area again. Book a reservation as I think they're always busy because of how good the food is. Oh, and the ambiance of the restaurant was really good too. It's a bustling restaurant but not too loud which is what I like.“

“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.“

“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 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!“

“Food: amazing! I've had the pad thai and yellow curry and both were delicious. I haven't had a bad experience here yet and the service is friendly and timely. I only gave 2 stars for atmosphere but that's only because it's takeout only. If you're looking for dine in, this isn't the place, but on a nice day you could bring your food to the town common. Would definitely come back for more!“

“Lovely family restaurant vibe, sweetest staff with great service. Fast and attentive. Delicious and generous food, accommodated all requests. The drunken noodles are so comforting, flavorsome and spicy. They are much better than nud pob in my opinion in terms of both service and food quality.

Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating!“

“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“

“Beautifully plated and always delicious. The staff is phenomenal and caring and attentive and the owner is a wonderful man. Always goes above and beyond to make sure customers are happy“

“Best Thai food in Boston This is my wife’s favorite food.“

“We ate here on a Wednesday and it was very quiet. Too quiet in our view as the food and service was outstanding. We have two youngsters in the age of 14-16 years and they loved it and so did we. We would advise everyone to come here at least one night to taste the outstanding combination of Thai, Malay and Indonesian food!“

“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!“

“Ordered takeout noodle soups, the bowls kept the noodles and ingredients fresh separate from the broth. We got the Tom Yum Ramen and the Beef Kao Soi. It was delicious! Will order again. Thai lime tea was very refreshing.

Parking: There are a few spots right outside and a free parking lot a 2 minute walk down the street.“

“Great food!“

“love all our food except Thai custard and lychee.“

“I can tell this is the real deal. Authentic and affordable Thai food compare to other Thai restaurants I tried. I love the Tom yum soup very tasty & pad thai noodle. Their service is top notch & friendly atmosphere. I live in Boston but I will order from here again :) ..my go to for take out“

“Delicious food in this little hot spot. Great stop after Trillium - pineapple fried rice is my favorite. :-)“

“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.“

“We got 3 orders of take-out:
1 red curry, 1 green curry, and 1 Pad Thai.
We loved the spices! I had the shrimp curry and was surprised at how many shrimp there were.
And the prices were very reasonable
I'm not sure when, but Kapow Thai has changed management.

I highly recommend giving it a try!“

“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.“

“Excellent! Pad Thai with Crispy Chicken“

“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!“

“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.“

“You had me at chili oil. Phenomenal from beginning to end. Exceeded my expectations in flavor. I highly recommend. Both dishes (my husband’s and mine) were flavorful, perfect sized portion and speedy! We received our food no more than 10 minutes after we placed it with our waitress, who took out from memory. Cute, cozy place that is good for all meals of the day.“

“Real Thai Taste..Try Boat noodle soup and Ka prow..you will love every bite..“

“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.“

“The best place in Boston. Amazing food and customer service at an awesome and affordable price point. Has options for everyone, including gluten free. Will come here again and again.

Dietary restrictions: gluten free and lactose free options“

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

“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.“

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