Have you went to a pizzeria one day , got a delicous pizza , returned next week and it seems like it was thrown together by your child? A lot of restaurants lack reliability in quality of food. Thai palace is always fantastic. We must have ordered atleast 10x times in the last 6-8 months and always fantastic. Dumplings, curry puffs, pad Thai, drunken noodles. Always a 10/10 and the lovely lady working at the front is great.

Beware of heat though.

Overall , great experience and food.

I would say this restaurant is the best Thai place I have ever been too, but I think it is legitimately one of the best restaurants I have ever been to….

My girlfriend and I came here for the first time in summer 2024. We came for dinner, and we were so blown away, that we came back again for dinner the next day. Fast forward to this evening, in summer 2025, and the food has remained constant from last year, if not better.

The food is incredible. Some highlights include the Chicken Satay, Pad Thai, Penang Curry, Papaya Salad, and the Mango Sticky rice for dessert.

Kat truly cares about every little detail of her restaurant, and it shows. From the very limited seating, the imported ingredients, and attentive service, the level of detail is akin to what you would find in a restaurant listed on the Michelin guide.

While this all sounds too good to be true for a restaurant in the middle of a small town in rural Jersey, do yourself a favor and try this restaurant for yourself. Easily worth a 1+ hour drive.

The best Thai food and the best massaman curry I’ve ever had. The service is top notch and the wait (which they are always transparent about) is minimal. They are very respectful about dietary restrictions and have many vegan options. Their spice levels are unlike anywhere I’ve been (which they are honest about) and I love it! If you’re looking for authentic Thai spice, this is the place.

We stopped at this place while passing through the city. We didn’t expect much, but we love Thai food, so we decided to give it a try.

There was a sign on the door saying reservations were required, which we didn’t have—but the place was completely empty (literally zero people) when we arrived on a Saturday around 3 PM.

The waitress was very polite, friendly, and welcoming. She let us know that most dishes are spicy, which we really appreciated since we had two kids with us who don’t like spicy food.

We ordered drunken noodles with tofu, fried rice with chicken, tofu with broccoli and peanut sauce (served with rice), and some drinks. Everything was very good—except the broccoli dish. The broccoli was cold, likely because it was frozen and hadn’t been properly defrosted.

The food came out very quickly, and the prices were very reasonable.

We didn’t love the interior—it felt outdated and quite dark—but we were told it’s a historic building that hasn’t been renovated.

Traditional Thai cuisine, very good.
You won't find burgers or fries but you have to love the originality of it.

I've gotten food from here many times and it's always delicious. The drunken noodles with chicken or beef and the Phra Ram (peanut sauce) with chicken are two of my favorites.

There's only a staff of two that run everything and they're almost always busy so call ahead if you're placing a carry out order or making reservations. It's usually a 30-60 minute wait until they can make your food depending on how many orders are ahead of you.

The spice levels are no joke, I swear they've gotten worse. I like a tasteful amount of spice and used to get level 2, but now I get level 1 and even that is sometimes too spicy for me, so be wary cause it can vary.

Lastly a fun fact: the building used to be a historic candy shop so keep an eye out for the old decor!

As a Thai person, I can confidently say that this restaurant is spot-on authentic. The food tastes just like what I eat in Thailand. I live 45 minutes away, but the food is totally worth the drive!

Yes, you do need to make a reservation, but the food is probably the best thai food I have ever had, the service is phenomenal, and the atmosphere is quaint and comfortable. You can tell they really care about providing an excellent experience. The prices are also very reasonable. I noticed they seem to have alot of regulars and now I plan to be one myself.
