15 Best Thai Restaurants near Rockaway

“Excellent food! Excellent service! We went this past Saturday and we were a party of 6. Everything everyone had was delicious. Great attentive service. Food came out fast. We absolutely love it! We have went other times before this one and it’s been good every time! Highly recommend“

“Good sized portions. Great flavor. Beautiful atmosphere. Our server Jelly was super friendly & sweet. I gotta give her so much credit because the night my family & I went it was a very busy Tuesday & she was the only server on for the evening. Everything came out perfectly, will definitely be coming back & bringing friends along!“

“Real Thai Halal is truly a hidden gem for Thai food lovers in north Jersey! Even though it’s a takeout-only spot, the food quality is absolutely top notch. We tried their chicken satay, fried rice, beef drunken noodles, and fish cake, and every single dish was spot on. The chicken satay was juicy and flavorful, the fried rice perfectly seasoned, the beef drunken noodles had that authentic bold Thai flavor with tender beef, and the fish cake was delicious and well balanced. Drunken noodles is my absolutely fav to-go food, so good that can eat it the whole day.
Here, you can really tell the food is freshly prepared and made with care. If you’re looking for authentic Thai flavors in halal options, this place definitely delivers. Highly recommend! 🌶️🥢“

“The curry puff appetizer had excellent texture and flavour. My Thai iced tea tasted good if a bit stronger than I am used to at the start, but the flavour balanced as the ice melted. Our mains were decent, except that some of the beef pieces in my Pad Thai were overly chewy.

A common issue I have with restaurants in the US is that servers like to talk a lot and then fail to refill my water during my meal. I had no such issue here.“

“Very nice fusion cuisine of Thai and French. Very well conceived menu. Good portion size. Everything we tried was superb. One special favorite was the Snapper with Tamarind.“

“Love this place!!! Excellent food and fantastic atmosphere! Best Thai food!!!“

“We ordered food tonight since we can’t be with our families for Easter dinner and since it’s just the two of us we didn’t want to cook and all I have to say is it was DELICIOUS & thank you for the awesome dinner Lotus 😊 ❤️“

“All four of our party enjoyed their entrees and appetizers. Bursting with fresh flavors and top notch ingredients....we were served hefty portions. Not just your average Thai restaurant, a very varied menu. I recommend the delicate little dumplings appetizer and the Lamb Chops with Lemongrass. Also, the Thai Sweet Tea was delicious and the wait staff and owners were patient, helpful and kind.“

“Very delicious Food, Great wait service and knowledgeable and very friendly. I always enjoy my meal when I go there.“

“Ordered for the first time since learning they moved & opened their doors in Morris Plains! They were our FAVORITE restaurant in Cedar Knolls! I’m SO happy to have them ‘back’ (a bit further of a drive, but so worth it!!) Everything was just as delicious as I remembered it being! We’ll be back SOON!!“

“Had a wonderful dining experience with polite and attentive staff who made us feel very welcome throughout the meal. The Malay and Thai food was excellent with great flavors and freshness.

For appetizers, we ordered the veg roti canai, veg fried dumplings, and papaya salad, all were delicious and a perfect start to the meal. I am a vegetarian and I love roti canai but most places add chicken broth to it, so I am not able to eat it. I was so pleasantly surprised that this restaurant has a vegetarian version. It was so good that we ordered another plate of roti canai. For the main course, we tried the Thai basil, Thai pineapple curry, and chilli chicken. The Thai basil and pineapple curry were especially flavorful and paired very well with rice.

The only slight disappointment was my husband's order of chilli chicken, which turned out to be a dry entrée and not the best choice to have with rice but it was on us for not confirming before ordering.

Overall, the food, service, and experience were excellent, and I would definitely recommend this place for great Malay and Thai cuisine. I definitely want to go back for another round of roti canai.“

“Every single plate that we ordered was a piece of art! I visited Thailand and tried to find someplace with a similar kitchen, but all I tried before was just imitation. 181 Howard Blvd has the most unique and talented chief cook! Thanks so much for such a pleasant experience! Even my teenage son, who never comments on his food could not stop expressing his delight!“

“Food is always delicious and affordable.“

“When you are craving greasy but tasty Chinese take out that you'll probably regret this is the place for you. Their entrees are actually generous with meat and it's pretty tasty/surprisingly fresh. I like that they are open later than most places.“

“My family has been coming here weekly for about 3 years now. The staff is extremely friendly, and they always talk to and play with our children (2 and 4). We always do sushi, but our kids do the udon noodles and sometimes the sesame/general tso chicken and we have not been disappointed. We recommend this restaurant to everyone.“
