“Best Thai food in DC! Flavors are OUT OF THIS WORLD! Calamari, Mama’s Rice and especially Mango Sticky rice were absolutely amazing! Our server Chat was super attentive and took care to explain and provide excellent recommendations. Do yourself a favor and try this place!“

“We're staying in the area for work, and we stopped here for dinner. All I can say is that the coconut soup is the best you'll ever try. It's absolutely amazing. The rest of our food was good as well, but that stood out as the best I've ever had in my entire life. I may come back again just for that.“

“wonderful small family owned Thai restaurant in Washington DC. the food is excellent and the service is great.“

“This place is MOST AWESOMENESS! A definite must come eat!“

“I’m going to post the same review I gave on Yelp - this is a 5 Star place! After a day in DC, my family decided to try Soul Thai on our way home. What a terrific Experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was some of the best Thai we have ever had. The Pad Thai was amazing. The Hang Over Noodles (Drunken Noodles) was exceptional. And the red curry was by far the best I’ve had in the area. The ambiance was quite pleasant as well. Initially we were sat in an area that was a little noisy for our taste, but they graciously moved us to a much quieter section. The owner, Nancy came over after our meal and was very appreciative of our comments on the meal. She shared with us that she personally picks the freshest ingredients she can find to ensure the quality of the food. I would highly recommend Soul Thai to everyone. We will be coming back soon. THANK YOU, Nancy!!!!“

“WOW! I live in DC and have tried basically every Thai place in DC but rarely make it to VA. Thai is some of my favorite food. My main complaint with most DC places is that the food is NOT spicy enough. Not the case here! I got the drunken noodles tonight and hands down they were the spiciest best I've had in the area! Love this place! New favorite Thai spot in the DMV! I'll be back and VERY SOON! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THAI FOOD SPICY AS IT SHOULD BE!“

“I ran across this place on door dash and tried the drunken noodles and the flavor was so good but just a tad spicy for me. However, the flavor was so good I just had to try it again. I called and spoke with a staff member that was so nice and advised me on menu items that were not so spicy. I ordered again and OMG, it is delicious!!! They even threw in spring rolls as a treat for me trying their food again! One of my new favorite places! Don't miss out. TRY IT. Delicious“

“Very good Thai food! The waiters were very patient and considerate. Dining was very smooth experience. The food was well prepared especially the soups and fried rice. I highly recommend anyone around DC area to give this restaurant a worthy try.“

“If you’re in search of authentic Thai cuisine, look no further than this hidden gem. Tucked away like a best-kept secret, this unassuming spot delivers food that is as delicious as its artful presentation. Each dish is meticulously crafted by the talented Thai chef/owner, whose passion for authentic flavors shines through every bite. The flavor reminded me of homemade food in Thailand.

The service is impeccable, adding to the experience, with the server/bartender who made as feel like valued guests in a cozy, bright and cheerful space. In a neighborhood increasingly filled with gentrified spots, this place is a refreshing reminder of what real, freshly made food should be. I wish I lived here just for the opportunity to dine at this incredible restaurant more often!“

“Delicious food, fast and friendly service. I really liked the Tokyo mule. Recommend!“

“I’ve had my eye on this place for a while, and I’m so glad I finally stopped by for lunch—it was absolutely amazing! The food and service were on another level. We ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai, Kapow Goong Gai, and the Maryland Crab Roll, and every dish was bursting with flavor. Our waiter, Steve, was incredible—so kind and personable. He not only gave us fantastic food and travel tips for our upcoming trip to Thailand but also taught us how to pronounce and order some of the dishes we loved. It was such a thoughtful touch! I’m already looking forward to my next visit and can’t recommend this spot highly enough. Plus, it’s super convenient, located right next to the Stadium-Armory metro station. A must-visit!“

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

“We are visiting from Tennessee and wanted authentic Thai cuisine. We found it at Sampannee!!! The best Thai meal I have ever eaten. The cocktails were delicious and the food was perfection! Very friendly kitchen and the waitress was very friendly. I’ll be dreaming of Sampannee for many months! So, so good!!“

“Food was excellent and the space is really pretty! Great place for vegans. There aren't specifically vegan items but many menu items can be made vegan, just ask your server, ours was very knowledgeable and quick to check with the chef to make sure a dish could be made vegan. We had a great time and will definitely be back!“

“Wonderful lunch… chicken satay with peanut sauce was perfect and the best Pad Thai noodles I’ve had in awhile . Excellent service and attention to their patrons … 5 stars will be back“

“I’ve been visiting this restaurant for dine in and to-go for a few years now. The vibe is chill and the servers are always so nice. The food is always good except the dumplings- not a huge fan but the other things are delicious and fresh. The raw rolls are very tasty and they have a great happy hour.

Food is so good, I drive from Alexandria for it!“

“Came for a weekend bite. It didn't disappoint. The food was delicious and very flavorful. The sesame beef and Tom Yum soup were absolutely delectable. definitely worth the drive from DC. Very calming environment.“

“Moo Toon noodle soup was so rich. Savory broth with melt-in-mouth pork. Noodles had perfect texture and bounce. Truly comforting and flavorful!“

“The Cat fish salad , Tom yum soup and the fry tofu were delicious The ambience was elegant and the service was excellent !!“

“A Mount Pleasant main street classic! Delicious pad Thai, good service, lots of seating both indoors and outdoors. They also do watercolor date nights at the bar which sounds very cute! The one thing that we were less impressed by on our recent visit were the cocktails, which were supposed to be all these interesting flavors but tasted really bland (except for the mocktail we ordered, which was actually delicious!).“

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

“Went here with my friends and it was a 10/10 experience from start to finish! Our waiter’s name was Bitt and he couldn’t have been more accommodating and sweet! The food was amazing! I had the pad Thai and it was perfect!! I would recommend this place to everyone!“

“Birthday party good food good drinks good service“

“My favorite Pad thai with shrimp“

“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.“

“Excellent place to go for delicious vegan Thai food!! Would recommend! Such great customer service, very kind staff. Worth every penny.“

“บริการดีอาหารอร่อยได้ไวรสชาติดีมาก“

“Small and cozy setting food was great. The only issue is limited parking in the area.“

“I love there PadThai. Their sauce is the best PadThai sauce I’ve ever had. Tab Tim Krob is delicious! Would definitely recommend!“

“Went to this little hole in the wall restaurant after having visited Thailand and felt like I never left Thailand. Exceptional food and friendly staff. Try the chive dumplings, you won’t be disappointed!“

“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“

“Incredible food, vibrant atmosphere, the smell of succulent grilled meats and curries and lemongrass just stimulate your senses, and the warm, caring hospitality of the servers make for a memorable dining experience! We can’t wait to go back on a regular basis!“

“very delicious very fast food so good“

“I went on Thursday for lunch. The sesame chicken was good, but I wasn’t particularly impressed by the mango boba. They must’ve been understaffed, because I had to wait a long time to have my order taken, despite being the only person in line. When someone did eventually take my order, he did so efficiently, which I appreciate.“

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

“Wonderful food and service. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit today and will visit again.“

“The best Thai restaurant in the East Coast. Worth every second of my visit to DC. I’ll be back next year with my wife. And order the same thing: shrimp rice with pineapple and cashews (Khao Pad Sapparod). And for dessert: ginger ice cream. Service was awesome as well.“

“Was disappointed that almost half of the menu was not available when we visited during lunch hours. Wanted to try the mac n cheese, crab cakes, ribs… none were available. Service was also a bit dismissive. We happened to come on a very hot day and there was no AC - it was just as hot as outside. Still giving 4 stars as the food we did have was good. Especially enjoyed the wings and breakfast wrap.“

“Super friendly staff, nice environment, and very delicious and fresh food! Best Thai food we have ever had! Thank you, Jen and Aud for the hospitality!“

“The Pad Thai and Duck Roll Was Excellent“

“Finally dined in after ordering takeout only for about a year. Their noodles and rice dishes are amazing! But their curries are watery. Solid price, huge portions, big menu, and a nicely decorated interior.

Edit: came back for a second in-person meal and I can confirm they're just consistently amazing! In person I feel like the portions are bigger and stuff comes out quickly with good service! Highly recommend you come in person.“

“We had the pineapple fried rice and the cashew chicken, along with the spring rolls (delicious - and I am not someone who likes completely vegetarian spring rolls, but that s&s sauce was bomb!).
Absolutely worth it. Great little place, quiet and intimate atmosphere with sweet and sincere service.
Be sure, if you like Spice, request Thai Thai hot. Trust me 😅
Check this place out. You won't be disappointed!“

“Great environment, close to home, good price and above all...food was delish.“

“I recently ordered through Postmates from this location for delivery. I got the spring rolls, mango sticky rice, and curry puffs.

The spring rolls were really good, they had I think glass noodles along with the veggies inside. They are quite small so they give you 4 of them.

The curry puffs are an item I have gotten from multiple restaurants and theirs were on the small size but they give you 3 instead of the usual 2. They were a bunch more spicy compared to others and it was too spicy for my liking. This is the only time I haven't finished an order of curry puffs due to taste. The cucumber-vinegar sauce also wasn't very good. It wasn't vinegary enough, basically tasted watered down and this is a crucial part of the dish, so I was a bit disappointed.

The mango stick rice was incredibly good! The mango was perfectly fresh and ripe! They give you a decent portion of sticky rice with coconut and such on top. If for no other reason I'll be ordering from them again just to get more of this and to try other dishes!

A suggestion: one thing that would improve my experience and enjoyment is if the store had a sweet plum type sauce that wasn't spicy that was made in the restaurant with good natural ingredients. Many of the prepackaged sauces have ingredients I'm unable to eat due to food allergies. I would pay more, and order more often if I really liked the sauce. One example in the market is Chipotle makes their Polynesian sauce that I buy in the large bottles because it's the only sweet and sour type sauce I can eat and use it for all stores nuggets because they make it themselves without all the artificial ingredients. I also order coconut shrimp from red lobster as opposed to other places because I love their pina colada sauce.... just a thought. There are a lot of us who can't eat the artificial stuff. Msg is another one that commonly is a problem for those with migraine and it would be great if you had a good alternative. I think restaurants underestimate the value of a good sauce from scratch.“

“The food was excellent…the service was outstanding“

“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!“

“I enjoyed the cozy atmosphere, the food was great, customer service was fantastic. And will be going back. 💯“
