50 Best Thai Restaurants near Elmhurst

“Delicious food, delicious Thai-Laos flavor. Recommend to come to this restaurant you won't be disappointed.🤟👍“

“La comida es muy delicioso 🤤 se los recomiendo“

“I’m a fan of this corner cafe. It’s right in the heart of Little Thailand and they have sweet and savory dishes to try. I had Thai hotpot for the first time here and it was much different than the hotpot I’m used to eating, but I liked it. It was much more intense in flavor with more notes of acidity. They also have an amazing duck noodle soup and the boat noodles that I’d recommend. The dessert option is great too, I didn’t know what to expect from the Rooty Tooty but it was perfectly sweet. The staff here were super nice as well, we definitely felt welcomed here!“

“The best Thai in all of New York City, hands down. I've been coming here since they've opened and am never let down. Service is always great. The nicest people work here and in the kitchen.

Try the spicy basil duck, tiny crispy prawns, crispy pork with Chinese broccoli, and the tom ka gai(lime-coconut milk soup with chicken and mushrooms) for some of my recommendations. Don't forget to order medium spicy level or you'll be hit with the real intense spice of Thailand.

Only issue is that they only accept cash. Otherwise, it's one of the BEST hole in the wall neighborhood spots with amazing flavors. The menu is so vast that it will keep you coming back for more.“

“An amazing shop ? The food tasted absolutely delectable, especially the roti, which was not too spicy or overwhelming, as the roti and soup each played their own role in harmony. The portion was also huge, which was extremely affordable for its size. The shop itself is cozy and the owner and his wife were so nice! I absolutely recommend this place anytime you want a filling, comfortable meal!“

“Sabay is a solid spot for casual Thai food. The BBQ beef was excellent – really tender, almost like steak slices. The summer rolls were good, though I would have preferred a peanut sauce over the horseradish paste that came with it. The Pad Thai was packed with flavor, but the chicken was a bit dry, and the dish was a little too sweet.

Overall, I still enjoyed my meal. The service was very welcoming and friendly, which added to the overall positive experience.“

“Since we got to know this place with my partner, we haven't stopped visiting it ☺️ The food is very delicious, excellent prices and service. The Ice Te Chai is Yummy and the mango sticky rice dessert can't be missed. Pad Thai is our favorite dish. The dumplings are perfect. Soups and rice. It's my favorite restaurant just a few minutes from my house ?“

“The food here was excellent. I got the Pad Thai and it was one of the best I've ever had. Their appetizers are all very good. I'd highly recommend going here on a date or family dinner. Menu is a little pricy but worth it.“

“Very Fresh and amazing service and atmosphere.“

“AM Thai is our new favorite. The people are so kind, the space is warm and inviting, and the food is AMAZING. The Khao Soi, Pad Thai (which is usually forgettable at most places), dry crab noodle, and panang curry were all delicious. Can't wait to go back! Thank y'all for a delicious meal!“

“My daughter graduated college and this was her choice for a family dinner after such a long day! Such an amazing experience. From the second we arrived until we left service was excellent.

“Sooooo good!“

“Authentic Thai cuisine with amazing portions. Staff was so friendly and loved that he knew what we wanted to try and gave us great recommendations. Definitely will visit again when we are in the area.“

“A gem of the neighborhood. Vibe: This spot is always the perfect amount of busy. Lively enough to create an atmosphere but I’ve never had to wait for a table. Servers are attentive and the food comes out quick. Food: The menu punches above its weight. Portions are good for their value and the chef understands the right spicy levels. You’ll remember the pad Thai for a while. The drunken noodle might be the best dish on the menu but you can’t go wrong with the Pad Ka Pow Beef. If your getting an app get the duck bun“

“terrific service and food! the Sake Mojito was fantastic!“

“Great food, good ambiance.“

“Great authentic Thai place with some harder to find dishes. The food was amazing and the portions were large for an amazing price. Staff were friendly and quick and the service was friendly. As far as sit-down restaurants go this might be the best value/quality per dollar place I have eat in NYC. Highly recommended.“

“Hands down the best Thai restaurant in Manhattan! The flavors are truly authentic — confirmed by Thai people like me. I always come here with friends. It gets busy at dinner, so I usually come for lunch. My go-to dishes are papaya salad with raw crab, kor moo yang, mieng kana, and the whole red snapper with garlic. Everything is packed with bold, real Thai flavors. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. If you’re craving the real deal, this is the spot!“

“I can’t believe I slept on this place.

Best food and service hands down. I would say even better than a lot of places in SE Asia.

I wish I had more photos but seriously, we woofed it down as fast as it came.

Service was spectacular.

This place deserves a Michelin star and more.“

“Absolutely delicious food and drinks! I highly recommend the volcano wings for appetizer and colossal crab meat fried rice and the giant river prawn curry for entrees. Portions are great for sharing too!“

“I always had a delicious lunch special dining experience at this Thai restaurant! Not only their lunch special is affordable, the portion was generous and their service was prompt. The chicken green curry was rich and aromatic, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. The pad Thai had a wonderful mix of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors, while the beef with basil sauce was incredibly fragrant and satisfying. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated with a charming, flowery decor that created a warm atmosphere.“

“Ultimate Thai food. Be ready to bring the heat. Friendly staff and great food.“

“This is a restaurant that redefines traditional Thai cuisine. At first glance, the menu might not seem particularly impressive, but each dish carries hints of innovation. Take the curry rice noodles, for example—while curry with noodles or rice is common, pairing it with rice noodles stands out as unique. The drink menu is also full of Southeast Asian flair, making it highly recommended.“

“Incredible meal. Fish cakes Larb. But the beat was Drunken Noodles with duck.“

“The Best Thai-Food anywhere...#Period“

“Me and my wife love this place. It's got an old Orient Express train car theme throughout the restaurant. Be warned ⚠️ lol, the spicy selections on the menu are true to the meaning of spicy. Definitely a go-to for those who like real spice in your life.“

“Wow! Everything we ordered was supercharged with flavor…every bite a delight. The purple dumplings were small but a dream bite and a fantasy for the eye. Both rib dishes were happily gobbled up by the group - and don’t miss the chance to throw your side of rice in their sauces for some additional tasty bites. Will certainly come back to try what we didn’t get.“

“Delicious Thai food. Classic dishes. Vegan. Lovely Ms May Kaidee cooks your food!! She is a cookbook author, chef, dancer, noted restaurateur in Thailand. Interior is decorated with Thai symbols. Great food. I had noodles and vegetables with an amazing sauce. Mango desert with coconut sauce and yummy rice, fantastic!!! Joe might be your waiter and is kind and professional. Such a wonderful place!!!“

“had the best dinner ever, so I will recommend that“

“Food was phenomenal, loved everything, one of the best places I’ve ever eaten at“

“Here’s a polished Google review in English for Thai Villa in New York:

“We arrived earlier than our scheduled reservation, but that wasn’t a problem at all. The staff at the entrance were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was impressively fast. The only downside is that the seating is a bit cramped, as the tables are quite close together. Overall, a great experience!”“

“One of the best Steaks I eat in Brooklyn , “brooklyn Steak”was Fabulous , don’t hesitate on visit this Gem place in Brooklyn, very near the museum of transit , lovely area!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food is del. Quality food made with fresh ingredients. Best Thai food in queens in my opinion“

“I love Thai food in general and I have had a lot of it a lot of different places. This is the best chicken pad see ew I think I’ve ever had. The view of 1st Ave is super cute and they played great music so I can’t have asked for a better atmosphere and vibe. The service was lovely and fast. Presentation of the food was also a step above and the place is super clean. I’d highly recommend and I hope I come back soon too. Only complaint was $6 for a sparkling water which I didn’t realize I’d be charged for. Oh well. I’ll skip it next time.“
