50 Best Thai Restaurants near Potomac

“We loved the Udon Tom Ka soup. Chewy yummy noodles with delicious broth and added chicken we also loved the flavorful pomelo ( a type of grapefruit) salad with shrimp. So healthy and flavorful. Great service. Quiet on a Sunday afternoon“

“We dine here relatively frequently. Plenty of tasty vegan options. Service is good, performed by friendly staff. They play some music, but not too loud. And you can even charge your EV for free (within a few minutes' walk)! What else does one have to ask for? :D

Parking: There are free EV chargers within a few minutes' walk.“

“Everything was delicious . Food choices we made were a great combination. I liked the fact that every dish was flavorful. The service was wonderful and the ambiance is fabulous.“

“Tucked just off Georgetown’s bustling main street, Rimtang is a charming ode to Thai street food, capturing the vibrant spirit of its inspiration. The menu offers familiar classics with familiar flavors in an unpretentious setting.

The spring rolls were an instant hit—perfectly crisp with a delicate balance of crabmeat and black mushroom that avoided being overly crabby or earthy. The papaya salad was a refreshing palate cleanser, with a subtle undercurrent of heat that played well with the crunch of green beans, cherry tomatoes, and peanuts.

The spicy crispy calamari was the crowd-pleaser of the table. Imagine bite-sized calamari poppers—light, crunchy, and addictive. Every piece delivered a satisfying snap, and they vanished from the table as quickly as they arrived. The laab tod brought the dry heat I crave at thai spots. Crispy, aromatic bites of kurobuta pork coated in toasted rice powder had a dry, lingering spice that kept me reaching for more.

The panang curry with chicken was a comforting dish that didn’t overdo it. The chicken was tender, swimming in a well-balanced coconut curry with kaffir lime. A side of white rice tied it all together without overwhelming it.

The thai lemongrass pandan tea arrived in a playful freezer bag with a straw—a whimsical touch and a nod to its street food roots. It wasn’t overly sweet either.

The space is clean, though the booths are a little snug for comfort. Our waiter was clearly new and stumbled a bit with the menu, but their kindness and prompt service smoothed over any hiccups. While it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, it nails the essentials—crispy textures, balanced heat, and fresh flavors. For now, it’s a solid stop for a satisfying thai fix.“

“Delicious. I felt like I was eating Khao soi gai in Chiang Mai“

“Had read some mixed reviews but we gave it a shot and we were greatly impressed! We called ahead for our party of 10 and they had our reservations ready and accommodated us nicely. The service was excellent and the food was fantastic. Our party ranged from age 14 to 55, some loved Thai and some had never tried it. There was something for everyone to enjoy on the menu. Plus, it was very reasonably priced. We had a large party and it didn't break the bank, as they say. Great food and comradery was had by all! I don't normally write reviews, but again, I was impressed. Definitely recommend!“

“Had a late lunch and everything was delicious and food came out nice and hot. Daughter had two orders of dumplings, which were tender and filled with pork. I had panang curry with fried tofu. The vegetable and tofu were cooked perfectly. The curry sauce had the perfect amount of heat. My husband had the panang curry with chicken. It was also perfectly cooked and delicious. Service was attentive and prompt. Overall loved this place!“

“Nice atmosphere and quick service. The pad prikh kingh with tofu I had was tasty and the veggie gyoza was good as well, but deep fried and not pan fried. The lunch portion was a bit smallish, but yummy and served with white rice. I will definitely return for another visit!“

“I have eaten here thrice before. with my colleagues. I ordered the basil fried rice with vegetable and chicken. It was bursting with fresh flavors and wonderfully intense spiciness. Everything is so clean, and the staff is friendly and efficient! We were the last ones to leave and never felt rushed or like we were being a nuisance to the staff. I had a third, wonderful experience and i highly recommend it!“

“This is the best thai restaurant in NoVA, owned by such a lovely family, who also used to own Happy Thai near Mosaic. We know because we used to go to Happy Thai all the time but since the owner change it wasn’t the same. Through luck we learned that the owner family actually owned this restaurant first! We were ecstatic and indeed, it was the familiar taste that we remember from Happy Thai 2-3 yrs ago!“

“Good food. Decent service and clean, colorful surroundings. I will go back. For sure.“

“This restaurant is a true hidden culinary gem in Rockville. The food is authentic Thai and very delicious! We especially love all the little touches of decor making you feel like you are in Bangkok.“

“Amina Thai in Rockville is an excellent spot to relax and enjoy some delicious Thai food. Their extensive menu features a variety of dishes, catering to both meat lovers and vegetarians alike. I tried the chicken Pad Thai, and it was truly exceptional. The sauce was wonderfully tangy, and there was plenty of chicken—definitely a step up from many Asian restaurants that skimp on meat.

We also ordered the veggie noodles, which were decent but didn’t stand out. Overall, the prices are reasonable, making it a great value. The staff were friendly and attentive, enhancing the dining experience. If you’re in the area, Amina Thai is definitely worth a visit!

Dishes Ordered: Veggie Drunken Noodles, Chicken Pad Thai and Tofu Vegetable“

“Sweet Rice is a lovely restaurant. The creative Thai dishes are delicious. Servers are very professional and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. For the best of Thai cuisine you cannot do better than Sweet Rice in Falls Church.“

“Enjoyed lunch with a friend here. We sat outside and while the weather was lovely, the trucks going by on Connecticut Avenue made it hard to hear. Our meals of the lunch special were tasty and spiced just enough to enjoy without mouth burning. I liked my Pad Ginger with Pork served with a green salad with a memorable peanut sauce. My friend liked her Pad Thai with Chicken served with a taro roll.“

“บรรยากาศดี จัดร้านได้สัดส่วนเหมาะสม อาหารรสชาติดี แซบ ครับ“

“Great food and service. Definitely worth your time and money“

“Great Thai Food in NOVA. I really enjoyed Burapa Thai. The food was great .“

“One of the best Thai places I’ve been to in a while. The food was amazing and the prices are very reasonable.

For starters, we got the only chicken tom kha and the yum caramelized dried fish salad. Both were out of this world. The tom kha was packed with chicken and vegetables, but the soup itself was good enough to eat on its own. This was the first time we tried a caramelized dried fish salad but it’s probably our favorite now.

For entrees, we got the fish prik glua and crispy duck with basil. Both were wonderful. Each came with a good amount of fish/duck and vegetables. We were too full to get desert but will definitely try next time.“

“This is the best fried rice in the DMV and it’s not even close.“

“The food is outstanding, the people working there are great.“

“Great food and service. We highly recommend for great Thai cuisine.“

“After a friend recommended Buzz Thai Eatery, I’ve eaten from there several times. The staff are always friendly, courteous and extremely patient whenever I have questions about items on the menu. The food portions are generous and the flavors are fantastic! I highly recommend Buzz Thai Eatery, especially their buuz & khuushuur (they’re my favorite so far.) I tried a couple (new to me) items today, sticky rice with mango, California rolls & shrimp tempura maki rolls - they were all delicious. I’m looking forward to trying other items on future trips!“

“Looking for authentic Thai cuisine in Vienna? 🇹🇭🍛 Look no further than Thai Mom! They use fresh ingredients and strike the perfect balance of flavor and spice. If you're craving real Thai food that feels like a home-cooked meal, this is the place to go. Highly recommend! 🌶️✨“

“the food is so good, if you like spice you’ll love it, and even if you don’t, you can get it without it and it’s still so flavorful and delicious. i love the beef with garlic sauce. i haven’t eaten there in person in a bit, but i remember the restaurant being really clean and well taken care of whenever i came in to pick up. the staff are also very helpful and friendly.“

“Consistently outstanding food and service. Love the atmosphere and neighborhood feel.“

“great food and drinks! We will recommend!“

“The food is good, BUT they don't label takeout. Was hard when ordering for 6 to know whose was whose. Does takeout ladna come with noodles in one box, and meat in another box? Which was no spice, which was mild spice?“

“New Sushi/Ramen restaurant that my wife and I have been to at least 5 times in the last 2 weeks. The food and service is incredible and the prices are very reasonable. We love the fried tuna, avocado, and cream cheese roll, shoyu ramen, and their bento boxes. Everything we try tastes so fresh and flavorful! Can’t wait to keep sampling more of their menu.“

“Great authentic Thai. Nice atmosphere.“

“great food.Love everything in the menu.“

“great food good prices and beautiful inside food prepared wonderfully“

“Pasa Thai is more than Passa-ble, as the pork red curry and spicy onion rings were banging. I also always gotta respect any place with as large a tea selection as theirs. They also refilled my water cup a lot, something other places sometimes neglect. I guess my one complaint is that the onion rings could've been spicier.“

“IT IS MY FIRST TIME TRYING THIS RESTAURANT , AFTER TALKING TO MRS CONNY AND ASK HER TO SEE IF SHE CAN MAKE A FEW MODIFICATIONS TO MY ORDER , IT WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE THE FOOD IS UNBELIEVABLE DELICIOUS THE PANANG CURRY WITH EXTRA CHICKEN IS #1 , PLEASE I RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT TO EVERYONE THE FOOD IS AMAZING AND DELICIOUS .“

“Yes, this restaurant is highly recommended for a casual dining experience.“

“We love the food and the variety of options, from Chinese, to Japanese, to Thai. Henry, Cindy and the staff are super nice and always treat us like family. We've been going for years, and we highly recommend Gourmet Asian Bistro!“

“they don't order to where I live so I drove to the restaurant. they still have covid protocols in place. food is perfect every time“

“Came here a few days ago and ordered a pad thai, which was great, unfortunately, the other items such as the pineapple fried rice and the steamed thai dumpling that my group ordered were just ok. Service was great and friendly and atmosphere was appealing for a quick bite.“

“Google is wonderful. I would have never come across this place just driving around. My taste bud is simple and often order fried rice and either lo mein or chow mein. I ordered the chicken lo mein with shrimp fried rice. Not a fancy place but the food hit the spot. I am glad I tried this place; this will be my new go to place.“
