We went to Thai at Silver Spring for pick up. The food was ready on time and great at usual. We had an issue with our order and the staff were SO kind and fixed it right away. Great customer service and delicious food!

My husband and I have been coming here for years, and always enjoyed the food, the relaxed atmosphere, the prompt service, and the catchy but chill Thai pop music they played. They changed ownership a few months ago, and unfortunately, other things have changed too. The new staff is friendly enough, but the service has become much slower. They play generic American pop now, which takes away from the experience, for me. The food is still good, if a little less spicy/flavorful than before. The portions also seem smaller. All in all, not a deal breaker, but I do miss the way it used to be!

I usually order takeout from here and haven’t eaten inside, but every time I pick up, the staff is always polite and friendly. My go-to orders are the shrimp fried rice and the mango sticky rice. The food is generally consistent and tastes good, but lately I’ve noticed issues with portion sizes, pricing, and consistency.

The shrimp fried rice is $22, which feels high for the portion given. The mango sticky rice is $12 and used to come with about half a mango, but recently I’ve only been getting about a fourth. On one occasion, the sticky rice was overly salty.

Today’s mango sticky rice: it didn’t taste fresh, the rice was dry, and the color looked yellow/greenish instead of how it normally looks. On top of that, they’ve started adding a decorative piece of chocolate to the dish. Personally, I don’t think it fits and I feel portion size and extras like this should be communicated ahead of time or optional.

Altogether, my order usually comes to $30+, which is steep considering the portion sizes and occasional inconsistency. The food is still good overall, but for the price, I expect fresher quality, consistent portions, and the ability to decline decorations I didn’t ask for because in my opinion it ruins the dish.

Host greeted us in and walked us to our table and then brought water right away. There was a little wait for the server to come and take our order but that’s no biggie, just a pet peeve of mine when servers take more than 5 minutes when the whole restaurant is practically empty. Food was amazing, I ordered cry baby noodles. Will come back again.

Recommended dishes: Duck Roll, Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Satay

I recently ordered from here and the food was terrible, If I could give it 0 stars i would. I spent over $100 on my order and the initial wait time for delivery was stated to be 100 minutes, which I was fine with, but the food arrived even later than expected. When it finally came, everything was thrown together in a bag, with soup and other items leaking, and the food was cold, clearly having sat out for a while.

Unfortunately, every dish we ordered had issues: potatoes were undercooked and starchy, the curry was watery instead of thick, and everything that should have been crispy or cold was soggy and lukewarm. The curry had very little meat and vegetables in it (was mainly broth). Overall, it was a really disappointing experience, and none of the items were enjoyable. I would not recommend at all. Don't order from here!!

Atmosphere was great.
Food was good. The thai curry and pineapple fried rice were good and tasty. The apetizer was not good, especially the calamari felt like it was done hurriedly with lot of flour.

Thai at Silver Spring is a decent Thai restaurant in downtown Silver Spring. The menu is extensive, and they have a lot of traditional Thai dishes, as well as a mix of not so traditional dishes for those with less sophisticated palates. I ordered the traditional Thai dish of “basil chicken” or “ka pow.” They have two version on the menu, one is the traditional Thai way of diced meat, and the other version is sliced for people who do not want minced chicken. Anyway, the basil chicken wasn’t bad, the portion was generous, maybe too generous, but the flavor was too sweet – and trust me on this, I lived in Thailand and know how this dish should taste. My partner’s dish was not a traditional Thai dish, also a huge portion, so at least you are getting a lot for your money. The papaya salad wasn’t bad, not the best, but I could eat it again. They also have an extensive alcohol menu, but PLOT TWIST, they do not currently have an alcohol license so not sure why they even handout the drink menu. In summary, not a bad place if you really have an itch for Thai food, but the Thai restaurants in Virginia are much better and more authentic. 3/5

THE BEST AUTHENTIC THAI RESTAURANT IN THE DMV! I know authentic cooking when I taste it—I have traveled far and wide since returning to the DMV… and every dish I’ve tried is amazing. They are true to their culture and the dishes are delicious. 1. Great portion sizes 2. Great service!!! Our waitress knows us and we have a special table.

We LOVE eating here!!!!

Excellent quality food and a nice cozy place with excellent service. Have to give it one less star unfortunately as we got there to find out that only starting just today they had no liquid license. They still had the alcohol on the menus and at the bar but unable to serve any. However despite this set back, the food in particular made up for it. I love my curry super spicy and flavorful and the red duck curry was extremely tasty and spicy. It had a complex rich flavor not just being super spicy only. My colleagues also all enjoyed their food which seemed very fresh and with nice variety. I hope they get their liquor license fixed soon as it is an otherwise gem in Silver Spring.

My family has eaten here for many years, but won't anymore. On our last visit, we were the only ones there, but it took an extremely long time to take our order. When the waiter finally came to our table there was no apology or explanation for the long wait in an empty restaurant. To add insult to injury, they then added an automatic tip to the bill, which they have never done before and I did not see anything on the menu indicating automatic tipping was a new policy. My score is based mostly on the poor service. The food was mostly good except the Thai Tea had way too much cream in it

DO NOT EAT HERE , If you do use cash .They swiped my card at 4:30pm by 6:30pm they had used my card info to fraudulently take $223.50 off at an ATM in silver spring . If I could give zero stars i would

There are way better Thai locations to visit. The one in Columbia and laurel have this one beat by far! I’ve had the same Asian female waitress everytime I’m here and she’s terrible. I’m probably the only customer in here right now and the service is still terrible. I feel like the shrimp in my soup isn’t even cooked all the way….cocktails are also mid. Won’t be back after today
