50 Best Thai Restaurants near Kew Gardens

“Today I had a chance to come to this area and I did not hesitate to come to eat at Taan Thai Kitchen . If you like to eat spicy food, you must come to try this restaurant. The famous food is Pad Kee Mao, Pad See-Ew, Basil Fried Rice...etc. But today I wanted to eat something light, not too much. I ordered Mixed Vegetable and Chicken wings. If you are around here, come and try it. You will love the food of this restaurant.“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“Obviously we like thaï food as this is the the 3rd place in 3 weeks
Here the food is different not the usual curry dish or sate and oh soooo good.
Loved the 2 shrimp dishes we ordered, the shrimp cake as appetizer was excellent.
Our waitress Siri was friendly, helpful and always smiling.
Do try the lychee martini.“

“Obao is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC! I have never been disappointed here. Best atmosphere, staff, food, and drinks all for a reasonable price. Highly, highly recommend!!! Especially the calamari 😋“

“Great food and very friendly staff!“

“We ordered the corn fritters and lunch entres. We got appetizers from ordering the lunch menu, and got vegetable soup and spring rolls. Everything was very yummy, the corn fritters are crispy and delicious. The pad thai, pad see ew was good. Thank you!! Will come back again“

“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!“

“Excellent food and service“

“The food is absolutely delicious and it comes with a big portion! Dunken noodle with crispy duck and the Wagyu fried rice wins the game! The staff is also super friendly in helping and recommending dishes to us! Definitely coming back again for Thai food!“

“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.“

“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. Thai food was delicious and the cocktails were unique and highly recommended. We had a decent size party and they accommodated us comfortably and every one of us enjoyed our meals.“

“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.“

“Great food. Why no bathroom?“

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

“Despite a rainy day and a mediocrely designed logo, my low expectations were delightfully challenged by The Nuua Table's Thai brunch menu, a unique concept I had never encountered before, and one that greatly piqued my curiosity. From its unassuming exterior, I did not expect the extraordinary experience that unfolded.

Greeted and seated, we immediately discovered an ambiance beyond expectation. It was clean, woody, filled with greenery and deep orange accents, all bathed in warm light. Despite being packed, it was not loud. Every detail, from the Thai inspired fork and sea city patterned napkins to the pretty striped cups and the rainbow window on the door, showcased immense effort and care.

We started with Spicy Fries, Pan Seared Vegetable Dumplings, and Pink Grapefruit Salad, all beautifully presented and delicious. The grapefruit salad, though sweet, was perfectly balanced by fish sauce. While I was not a huge fan of the good dumplings, my friends loved them. The fries were thick, perfectly crispy outside, and soft and creamy inside. It was clear the chef masterfully understood the ingredients, prompting us to order an additional entree (the Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl).

All entrees were beautifully executed, suggesting upscale restaurant experience. The Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl was delicious, savory, and sweet, with a subtle lingering spice, even for a non mushroom lover. The Egg Toast was a great Thai pancake interpretation, savory and pleasantly fishy, with crispy boiled egg for texture; highly recommended. The Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai were just okay; I would suggest exploring other, more interesting options here.

We could not leave without dessert. The sole option available was delicious; its meringue, surprisingly light, and a creamy, subtly spiced part made for an interesting flavor. We were all happy, though we wished we had tried other main dishes instead of the Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai.

Our unnamed server was exceptional: proactively refilling water, describing dishes well, and even swapping plates after starters. His hawk like attentiveness meant we only needed to ask for the check. The check itself was presented in a cute folder, featuring an illustration of the restaurant door. Despite many tables, their work ethic was incredible. 10 out of 10.

The bathroom was perfection: super clean, smelling of citrus gum, with a thoughtful orchid plant, that aligns with the cuisine. A last check up trip was a delightful cherry on top.

I highly recommend The Nuua Table and will absolutely return, even going out of my way to try their dinner menu and interesting cocktails. Discovering this truly wonderful Brooklyn restaurant was a joy. Perhaps a logo redesign could better reflect the incredible craftsmanship of their interior and meticulously presented food.“

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

“Everything we ordered was tasty, I’d recommend coming with at least four people so you can sample more of the menu. My boyfriend and I had the drunken noodle, rice salad, fried chicken starter, crab fried rice and Thai tea cake.. I left wanting to try more even though I was uncomfortably full by the end of the meal!

Drunken noodles were delicious but it was on the oily side. We loved that it was addictively spicy.

Crab fried rice is a must get. Also on the greasy side but an actual flavor bomb.

We’ll be back.. with more people next time.“

“This place is a true gem. The atmosphere is warm and stylish, perfect for a night out or a special occasion. Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. Cocktails were creative and perfectly balanced. Service was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable without being overbearing. You can tell there’s real passion behind everything here. Highly recommend—I’ll definitely be back!“

“This is the best and most delicious Thai food I’ve ever eaten. You also have the option to make your dish spicy ~ which I LOVE. They made the panang curry extra spicy and it was phenomenal. Service is quick too! Highly recommend!!!“

“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.“

“I came here because of their amazing 4.9 rating on Google Maps, however, I was not amazed by their food. I got curry puffs to start my dinner. The puffs were nice and flavorful. The outside was light and flaky, and the insides were well seasoned with nice texture. The sauce came with was too sweet to my liking. Personally I prefer eating it as it is. I pad see ew with shrimp and added beef($5). The flavor was nice and the shrimp was fresh and clean. However, the beef wasn’t so good especially when I paid $5 extra for them. It was too dry and chewy.
Overall, it’s a standard Thai restaurant. The food was nice but nothing special about it.“

“I have eaten there many times and have always been happy with the food. The staff is very helpful and the restaurant is very relaxing .“

“Misc never misses! The Franklin Wings are tangy, addictive perfection, and the Chicken Pad Thai is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Friendly staff, great vibes, and consistently amazing food — my go-to Thai spot every time.“

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

“Love the food and service Great place to go back again!!!!!“

“Very pleasant experience! Food was delicious, my kids loved every moment, and the ambience 😍“

“By far the best Som Tam I've ever eaten outside of Thailand, and I've tried quite a few. Very fresh and aromatic papaya, and just the right blend of lime and fish sauce round it all out. I also highly recommend the Sai Ua, a Chiang Mai sausage with herbs. Simply delicious in a stylish and very well-kept ambiance. Highly recommended.“

“Why I love Holic…I come for lunch and dinner so often. The decoration is beautiful. This is my local spot and I am SO lucky. I’ve tried all the Crown Heights spots and this one beats them out of the water. Let me explain…their portions are amazing. Their food is FULL of veggies and meat. THEY DO NOT SKIMP. I love beef but I feel like the Asian spots I go to don’t have amazing beef. Holic has the best beef I’ve ever had at a Thai spot. Their lunch special is an incredible deal. I get a veggie full soup (coconut or tom kha) and a noodle or fried rice dish. Also, I tend to come solo because this is my local spot. They treat me with so much respect. One time I came with some allergies and the owner saw me and brought me a hot tea. Seriously they treat people so well. At night the spot becomes a cute vibey spot with a little bit of a night life flare. I don’t drink much but still love the feeling of being here. I like the staff here, they’re lovely Thai ladies who are great at customer service. They always check on you to make sure you’re satisfied.“

“Very good vibes. Love this! 💐🌺🍴🥢“

“Food and drink is great - authentic northern Thai food - duck isn’t greasy, the chicken liver & gizzards is to die for - everything is perfectly seasoned & the best part they made me my favorite salad - spicy cucumber salad which isn’t on the menu - will be going back for some more great eats!“

“Great Thai food in the city.“

“😍 The food is fantastic , also the service i enjoyed the whole brunch with friends“

“Really tasty Thai food with authentic flavors. We got a variety of entrees and shared which was a good move.

The restaurant doesn’t have good AC, so be ready for that. Spice + no AC is a tough combination.

Definitely recommend for a local bite“

“super rico todo lo recomiendo al 💯“

“A taste of authentic Bangkok in the heart of Astoria. Had the fried chicken curry plate where the aromatic rice was so delicious I couldn’t stop eating it. We also had the spicy Tom yum chicken soup.. it was like a hug for the soul. Along with the Som Tum pla ra (papaya salat with anchovies 🥰) Just what we needed after walking around Astoria. The customer service was impeccable. It’s always an exceptional dining experience when the people who work there genuinely love what they are serving. You can genuinely taste the love in each bite! We will definitely be boarding from here a lot more and trying everything else on the menu. This is a local business you want to support. Trust me!“

“Food is excellent. Fresh and well prepared. Service was low-keyed but attentive. Relaxed, family type atmosphere. Place was almost empty during my visit so I can't speak to the atmosphere or service when they get busy but I'd expect it would be fine.“

“Locals know this is *the* best Thai food in the neighborhood. For delivery especially, the food comes so fast it’s almost scary (did they know my order before I ordered it? How else could they get here so fast?). But the food is delicious and the portions are huge.

In person, Buffs is equally great. The vibes are fun and the service is super friendly and nice.“

“Thanks so much for the wonderful job. The food was great and your staff was wonderful as well."“

“Great Lunch as usual. Ordering as we speak.“

“A quaint and locals-favorite Thai restaurant serving prime dishes. We enjoyed every single dish that was brought to our table. The portions are plenty to share around the table: we had a party of four and ordered 2 entrees, 3 appetizers and a dessert.
The Branzino is the highlight of our dinner, which came with a grand presentation. Fish tasted clean and a hint of sweetness—delectable. We also recommend the Veggie Curry Puff, a savory and flaky goodness. As for dessert, we opted for their second best, Banana Pudding with Ice Cream since they were out of Mango Sticky Rice. Still a great choice!
Highly recommend to bring a few friends and family here :)“

“In my 15 years in NYC, this is the best Thai delivery I have ever had. Everything was delicious - we got pad see ew, crab fried rice, gaeng dang, Kanom jeeb, and crab Rangoon. It was all absolutely excellent! Flavorful, fresh, well seasoned, warm when it arrived, each dish as good as the last. This is a new favorite takeout spot and we’d love to go in person sometime as well!“

“Great dining experience. Superb cuisine!!“

“Hello, this is my first time trying Thai food. Excellent service and AAAA+++++“

“I gave this place five stars for one reason only: I wanted the people to read my review. If I gave one star, the review would be pushed back to the end. My review... Worst food we ever had in our lives!! Bland and expensive. It came with none of the toppings we ordered!! Tasteless and dry. I suspect the food was kept in the heat for most of the day. STAY AWAY FROM THIS S...HOLE!!!! It should be reported and closed. I can only imagine the unsanitary conditions of the place. Restaurants that do not care about the quality of their products do not care about hygiene.“

“Lunch special is great! Appetiser and main for $12.95, I’d recommend the chicken dumplings and the drunken noodles, I asked for a little spice and they did it perfectly. The service was amazing, my water cup never got below half full. Everyone was so kind and lovely to talk to, I will definitely be coming here again!“

“Great neighborhood spot for Thai food! We decided to walk in to Thai Tree after voting in the hottest Election Day that ever was, and they did not disappoint.

Server was friendly and quick, always kept our waters full, and he was knowledgeable about what could be made vegan or not.

Sadly the papaya salad can’t be made vegan, but we had plenty of other options. Portions were huge; we both ended up packing up leftovers of our noodles.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and are looking forward to coming back! Next time we’ll remember to save room for dessert 😝“

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

“I was recommended the beef noodle soup and that was very tasty, as well as my friend's pad kra pow. I would say that the drunken noodle did lack a bit of flavor, though. The service was very helpful and attentive, and I loved the vinyl theme they had going on. It felt like a Thai record store on the inside!“
