I’m not impressed with this “Thai” restaurant. It’s not authentic. There is some Thai spices but I couldn’t taste it???? The food is not flavorful as Thai food usually is. The chicken and rice are dry. I would say it very much more American than Thai.Also, It’s pricey. For a dish of $26, the plate is too little and some bites of protein and vegetables.The service is nice but I wouldn’t come back for Thai food.

Naviya’s Thai offers a wide range of vegetable Thai dishes that are mild to spicy! We love their lettuce wraps, noodle dishes and curry’s. Their cream cheese wontons are delicious too! I would give this place a 5 star, however, I feel as if the service by our server was unfair when overhearing her interactions with the table next to us. Took us a while to get water. The server asked the table next to us if they wanted mango sticky rice for dessert as they have it listed as a special and they declined. She then turned around to check in and we asked for the mango sticky rice where she then proceeded to say, "oh we don't actually have any more left today." I would not provide a low rating if she had not offered it all but to offer it to one table and then turn around and flat out and say they don't have it is truly unfair service in a lovely restaurant. I have been to Naviya's Thai a couple of times before and family visits too but this is the first time I have flat out experienced unfair service at what I thought would be a nice evening out.

Here's my review. I'll break it into chunks where certain topics might matter to you (:Parking:- plenty of street parking, freeDining:- waiter was very nice and very attentive- was able to sit at a table quickly- food came out pretty fast- bathroom and inside the restaurant was clean- plenty of seating inside tooFood:- the spring rolls were sooooo delicious! (: the peanut dipping sauce was sweet but very flavorful. I think this is probably one of my favorites now for fresh spring rolls. The shrimp chicken combo was also very nice and flavorful.- chicken pad see ew: it's interesting to have bell peppers and squash in it, but I like having more veggies in my dishes (makes me feel a bit more healthier XD). The chicken isn't like rubbery or hard but shreds nicely when you bite into it. There's a light tint of a flavor like sesame oil. The dish wasn't super oily.Overall, I had a very pleasant dine in experience after my two hikes. This is also just a very cute town area to explore. I would recommend here as a new place to check out and a town to explore ?

A little gem nestled in the Linden Hills neighborhood. We are very excited to have tried it and will absolutely go back! I would say the food is a solid 4 star and the extra star just came from how friendly the service is.Pretty much everything is delicious, but I encourage you to be adventurous and highly recommend the:- Rama thai- Green curry- Ginger Hot plate- Mango sticky rice

Ordered the Pad see ew with veggies. They gave me tofu. Flavorless and extremely oily. If you eat Thai food outside of this state you will be disappointed and annoyed at the price.

Delicious food. Plenty of vegetables in the curry and stir fry. Great vegan and vegetarian options on the menu. Excellent service. Small in size get there early to secure a table for dinner.

I ordered takeout from here and was happy with the service I received. I ordered the red curry with chicken at a three spice level. It was extremely spicy but the flavors were incredible. Definitely will be back but will be sure to get a lower level of spice!
The amazing places you can find through just a quick search always amaze me. Naviya's was no exception as the food, service, and atmosphere were amazing! I arrived on a super chilly Halloween evening to an empty spot. I was warmly welcomed and asked to sir wherever. I took a seat and checked out their menu, which had a diverse mix of curries, rice, appetizers, and other entrees.I was a little overwhelmed, so the waiter told me to try the green curry with chicken. I'm so glad I tried this as the curry was so delicious. It came out pipping hot and with medium spice. It made my lips tingle just enough, but not to the point of discomfort. I added the white rice that came on the side and chowed down. Every bite was satisfying, and I could not get enough. I'm so happy that curry makes great leftovers as I was able to save it and savor it later.Definitely recommend this wonderful neighborhood gem! Speaking of the neighborhood, it is super quaint and cute.I will be back to Naviya's when I am in the Minneapolis area again!

We enjoyed the lettuce wrap a lot. The filling was a good mix of sweet, sour, and savory flavors. The red curry I had was so good I over ate and hurt myself. It had a nice complex flavor once I got over the heat. Our server was very friendly and efficient.

This place has the absolute best cream cheese wontons. Most places have good ones, but these are superior. The pad Thai is also great.I would not recommend the spring rolls as they did not come with much peanut sauce and lacked flavor

Food is way over priced. Doesn't have flavor. Authentic Thai food is flavorful. This place seems watered down to cater to a non Thai taste. I guess it's ok if you don't know any better.The atmosphere is nice and the service is great. I just prefer a genuine Thai restaurant. The quality of food you get for the price isn't justified.
