Thai At Silver Spring

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

The food here is great and that's why I've gone back many times. However, note that your server may accost you after you settle the bill for not tipping up to the recommended percentages - and that I've found to be off putting. The minimum recommended tip is 18% of your total fyi.

These ppl are races , they can't even greet you and talks about you in your face like you're invisible. Place a order to go and the lid was not even on tight so the some of the juice spilled out.

It is a good restaurant. Plenty of tables and space. It is in a second floor but elevator is available endurance accesibility. The presentation of the plates are cute, yet I would appreciate more flavor and protein on the pinnaple rice. The selection of dessert is interested, the Thai Tea Cremme Brule was delicious. Service was fast

Hey yall heyyyyy,
This is another place that does not disappoint!! From the server OHM, to the food was/is always on point. It's a secret gem I like to sneak off and visit when I'm in the area shopping.
Their drinks are always an experience with the flowers and presentation of the food. Sometimes I forget to take pics bc its soooo good! I had shrimp and crab dumplings and their awesome Duck rolls. I took a order of CRAB FRIED RICE to go. Another phenomenal dish!
Thank you guys!!!

If I can give 0 stars I would. This place is horrible. They instantly start their tips from 18% and they bully you to add it to the payment before swiping your card. I was really thrown off with that. The fish that I ate was very unseasoned. 2 entree and 1 drink, I paid almost $100 is ridiculous. No wonder the restaurant was half empty on a Friday night. Will never return.

I have eaten at this location several times. I was told dont come back if I don't leave a tip. I have left a tip every other visit except this one because I wasn't happy with the service and was questioned about it. And when I said I wouldn't return was told okay that's good. Again, have left. A tip every other time, even when it wasn't warranted. Another example of the abusive with the tipping industry. No consideration if I'm not able to do it financially this time or not just where is my tip.

Food is okay but very piss poor service. The bully to leave a tip and force you to write it in when they charge your card than write it when you’re leaving. Their tip choices are 18%, 20% and 22%. So if your service was horrible, they still get at least 18%. I felt like I was bullied. My bill came up to nearly $100 for 2 under seasoned entrees and 1 drink. I’ll never return.
