31 Best Thai Restaurants near Ridgewood

“Absolutely exceptional. Pad see ewe was the best I've ever had and the little accoutrements (pepper flakes, sauce) on the side were a nice addition. As a big meat eater, I was most impressed by how perfectly the vegetables were cooked. Same goes for the green curry, which was a perfect level of spice (might be overwhelming to those who can't handle spice but a pleasant lasting burn for others). The thai iced teas were great too. Surpringly, I haven't found many great thai spots in Bergen County and this will absolutely be our go to going forward.“

“This small, cozy Thai restaurant is one of my go-to spots when I don’t feel like cooking. The food is consistently delicious and very affordable. It’s also BYOB, which is a great bonus—I can bring my own wine and enjoy a relaxed meal.
Excuse the photos—I started eating as soon as the food came out and only remembered to take pictures afterward!“

“Wonderful owners make amazing Thai food. I have been to many in the area. This was hands down the best.“

“Absolutely delicious food and very friendly service! We will definitely go back to try more dishes.“

“Very good food❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Don’t be fooled by the clean, modern, almost too-cool design of Thai Way. Inside, what waits is something much warmer: genuinely delicious Thai food, cooked with care, served with a real smile, and priced with unusual fairness.

We have now eaten here three times, and it is easily the best Thai food I’ve had in the U.S. so far — honestly, one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had here, period. Not because it performs luxury, but because it does something much rarer: it makes you feel well fed, welcomed, and happy.

The lunch menu is an absolute gem. The portions are modest but satisfying, the prices are more than fair, and the dishes — pad Thai, pad kapow, green curry, the standard classics — are executed with real attention. You also get a small starter, like salad or wonton soup, and water appears immediately. Small things, but they matter.

The green curry, in particular, stayed with me. It had aroma, balance, and texture — not the flat, overly creamy, generic curry I’ve had too many times elsewhere. It tasted like plants, aromatics, and actual cooking. There was care in it.

On our latest visit, we ordered from outside the lunch menu: som tam, fried chive dumplings, fried branzino, and mango sticky rice. The som tam had that unmistakable Bangkok note from the tiny dried prawns — sharp, alive, a little funky in the best possible way. The fried chive dumplings were excellent: crisp, chewy, savory, almost like an Asian kube filled with Chinese chives. The branzino was well cooked and came with rice and a small side of som tam; good, though slightly less exciting than the other dishes.

And then came the mango sticky rice. The mango was ripe and sweet, the rice perfectly sticky and coconut-soaked, with a salty coconut cream on top — not condensed milk, not some heavy sweet shortcut. Just balance. Sweet, salty, fruity, nutty, soft, sticky, crisp from the toasted grains. A simple dessert executed so well it becomes almost poetic. I suffered from the same amnesia when I looked at the dish arriving and devoured it almost completely before taking the pic. This speaks for itself :)

Thai Way feels like a hidden gem in Englewood: owner-present, generous without being fake, modern without being cold, and deeply satisfying without trying too hard. Food, service, atmosphere — 5/5. A must.“

“I tried the chicken and rice dishes and the pad thai. Very yummy and welcome addition to montclair. its a bit hidden so im getting the word out.“

“They have a great food 💯 We will be back there to try other menu. Yum 🤤“

“Lamoons, sawadeja, now named Thinoy Thai. This place has always had the best Thai food, barn-none. Service is incredibly friendly, and the grub is phenomenal. Highly recommend the shrimp pineapple fried rice and the pork yellow curry. The place is ?...Btw they're BYOB friendly. 5☆ 2? double?

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Had a great experience at SLA Thai Restaurant! The food was fresh, flavorful, and packed with authentic Thai taste. The dishes were well-prepared, the portions were generous, and the service was friendly and attentive. The cozy atmosphere made the dining experience even better. Definitely a place worth visiting if you’re craving quality Thai food! 🍜🌶️😊“

“Loved the food and the waiter is very professional“

“Excelente comida y atención muy cordial!“

“This Thai spot is one of the best i've ever been to. I've been to many Thai restaurants in NYC and this one in NJ surprised me with its quality and taste. My wife and I have been here many times already and every time is a hit.
I can do spicy and usually order Thai food at the spiciest level (Thai Spicy). Typically its not a problem for me to handle, but when I tried Thai Spicy here, it took me out.“

“I have ate at Tom Yum Koong for quite some time, almost since the time I was 15 years old. I always grabbed a bite here after tutoring and extensive study hours.

After graduating, I am practically a regular now and have tried at least everything on the menu except for the chef's specials and several appetizers. I'm sure they are great too and worth sharing as a family.

For what it's worth, the owner, Anne is a wonderful person. She is enthusiastic about her culture, her dishes, and everything she provides to her customers is simply the best. Though, the food can be heavy and forced me to go into deep food comas at times! In fact, I was so hungry one time that I ordered a Pad Thai with extra noodles! It was crazy, but the consistency and use of aromatics, as well as sauce was amazing.

For starters of Thai cusine, I recommend anything from their lunch special. The salad, soup, and entree was worth it. I suppose that the portion is less than their dinners, but mind you, everything tasted delicious! However, the only thing I'd say is that the food has gotten expensive. It makes sense, so be very careful of ordering here like I did.

As for tipping, it is required here for sit-down and encouraged for takeout. I tend to eat here alone, and there's no shame in that, but I always tend to tip around $2-3. The restaurant does not do any Uber, Door dash, or anything of the like, so if you order, you'd need to pick it up yourself after calling the store, or wait until at least 5pm and call them for delivery. They accept either cash or card, but if it's card, you'd need to tell them your card information and the amount to tip.

Regardless, Tom Yum Koong is a great restaurant. Given how long I have been eating here, the owners treat me pretty much like family. I guess it's a good thing, but it's also probably because I always prefer eating here more than anywhere else!“

“Excellent food. Fantastic service!“

“I ordered out, but the delivery was rapid. I can't speak to the atmosphere as I've never eaten at this establishment. However, the food was quite delicious. I would have given it five stars only I felt there should be a bit more chicken and vegetables given the cost. However, everything is more expensive these days so maybe it's just to be expected. This was the first time I've ordered from here.“

“This place serves some really good Thai food! I spent a couple of months in Thailand exploring the cuisine, and I have to say, this spot really measures up. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re craving authentic Thai flavors but can’t make the trip to Thailand. The prices are pretty reasonable compared to other places around here, and the quality of the food makes it well worth it. I’d give this place a solid 5 out of 5.“

“อาหารอร่อยมาก รวชาติแบบไทยๆๆๆๆ ยกนิ้วไห้เลยค่ะ“

“Wow. Just wow. We’ve been enjoying the delicious food here since the soft open last summer! Always excellent, never disappoints!! In addition to a small but very well executed list of main dishes, standouts are the Crispy Vermicelli and Pork Belly Satay appetizers and the Ding Ding dessert! And the courteous, friendly staff are always welcoming. This place is a real gem!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food was excellent. Service was slow. They only have one server caring for those dining in and the numerous take out orders. They lost several customers due to the long wait. This was a Friday, during dinner hours. The server said that they are very busy on Fridays and Saturdays.“

“I had an amazing experience at Khao Thai! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed. The service was quick, attentive, and super friendly throughout the entire meal.

The food was absolutely incredible—everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients and put care into every dish. The portion sizes were great, and every bite was packed with authentic Thai flavor.

This is easily one of the best spots in Englewood for Thai food. Whether you’re going for a casual dinner or taking friends out, Khao Thai never disappoints. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!“

“Pad sew was good, 9/10 for me. Good flavor and protein. Pad kra pow proportions were off. Too much unnecessary vegetables and not enough ground meat. Was also too oily / saucy. Flavor was good though, I think if the chef / owner fixes this (easy adjustment), this dish is would be a 10/10. But for me, due to lack of protein and meat, I would give it 6/10. Friendly owner and service.“

“Good food. Affordable places. Great service.“

“An Asian mall food joint with an interesting Thai twist. In reality, I don't think the food is very Thai - the offerings are pretty similar to Chinese food, like Panda Express. Their specialty is the Mango Chicken, which I love and is a much sweeter version of the Orange Chicken. I know it probably has more sugar than I need for a week but it tastes so darn good. The Pad Thai is passable but nowhere near the quality of legit Thai restaurants; I prefer the fried rice instead. They will give you a lot of food - much more than Panda Express. As long as you're not expecting anything more than good mall food, this is a great option at the Garden State Plaza Food Court.“

“Good terrific Service great“

“Just picked up some Chicken in Mango sauce! So delicious! That little bit of heat with that sweet mango sauce 😀. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. Highly recommend! Husband also enjoyed his Drunken noodle!“

“Zheng helped me place a big catering order for my Law Firm’s lunch, she has the MOST patience in the world. She made it easy for me to place my order, kept in contact and even answers the phone * we all know how rare this is* she is the best. I highly recommend. This is our new favorite restaurant! Xoxo Zheng“

“Great food and nice people who provide good service. The Mei Fun was delicious.“

“A lovely family runs this restaurant that prides itself on the freshest and interesting sushi and Asian delicacies. I’ve been coming here for years and have never had a bad meal. Dine-in is no frills decor, but it’s BYO and it’s the food that I keep coming back for. Diane is a great sushi chef!“
