It's beautiful inside with the dangling vines and clean counters, and it's in Woodside. It's a bit cozy, but it shares a space with Madame tea cafe. I love those Singapore curry puffs. What else stood out? I had the thief salad and the flavors were tart and sour and I felt it was okay. What an interesting blend of ingredients! Sweet sausage, fish balls, hot dog, grilled chicken, cut up grape tomatoes, onions, lettuce. Another thing we decided to order was the Jurassic chicken which was deep fried chicken with some pieces of fatty goodness and presented so beautifully. It was not bad. The waiter was super sweet, and he checked in on us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. I would return and try more. I just felt like trying something new.

food is delicious, but the prices are outrageous. I could understand a small serving of curry being $15, but the tiny slice of cake being $6 is too much.

Title: Disappointing Experience at Thailand Center PointI have been a longtime fan of Thailand Center Point and have always recommended it to friends. However, my recent visit left me deeply disappointed. The food quality has noticeably declined. I ordered the curry puffs, and it was evident they were old and had been recooked.To accompany my meal, I ordered ice coconut water, but what I received was warm coconut water, more akin to tea or soup. The waiter's unfriendly demeanor added to my disappointment.It's disheartening to witness the decline of a place with such potential. I can no longer recommend Thailand Center Point, and it's a shame to see it fall from its former glory.

Many vegan and vegetarian options!! Love their fake roast pork and mock duck. Good service, average wait time for the food. Cafe vibes, lots of seating, good lighting. Drinks are on the sweeter side.

Tucked away along 39th Ave in what is seemingly the Little Bangkok portion of Woodside, Thailand's Center Point has been a steadily feeding the neighborhood and beyond for the past decade plus. For a family run establishment, I'd say they've done quite good overall. The place is extremely tight and not particularly group friendly. Anything smaller and it'd be a takeout spot, but this could be a cute setup for a solo diner or perhaps a casual date. Group diners might find some luck in the picnic table smack dab in the middle and the staff is usually zig zagging around the place. Food wise, it's not the pantheon of Thai cuisine, but it more than gets the job done. Their noodles dishes, particularly the pad see yu and pad thai are very tasty and their pineapple fried rice is a keeper despite the smallish portions. The chicken satay is plump and juicy, while the curry puffs seem to be one of their most popular appetizers. Based on the penang and massaman, I don't feel that curries are their strong point, but I'd be open to trying them again to see if I'm wrong. For a long while they were BYOB, and that was one of their biggest selling points of dining in. The service has always been fabulous and their takeout / delivery game is on point. I do hope they remain in the area for a long time because Woodside certainly wouldn't be the same without it.

One of my favorite restaurant, this area has so many Thai restaurant it this place is my favorite. It’s family business and getting much better atmosphere.My go to menu is tofu popcorn, it’s delicious. I like their patthai and everything.I need to come once in a month for sure. Some food is definitely better than sriprapahi. Only one person as a waiter or waitress but nicer than sriprapahi as well.

Fantastic food and nice people! Lots of great Thai food in Queens (and NYC) but this place is a real gem! Salads, noodles, and stir fry (pad pik king) were really top notch. Reminded me of eating at my Thai friend’s house as a kid. Yum!!!

Ordered from them last night through GrubHub. Got a pad ginger and a pad cashew. When I received the bag it felt light. It didn't include rice. I don't know about when I order Thai or Chinese I expect rice to come with the dish except for noodle or rice dishes Called the restaurant, told them I was missing the rice. Told me it doesn't come with it and asked if this was my first time ordering. Now I am guess that they have been getting calls from customers that they are missing rice. No where in the menu does it say this.The prices in the menu aren't less then others that serve rice with it. The food also wasn't good. Didn't like the pad cashew, the chicken was fried and when I get this dish it usually isn't. I was disappointed with this place.The person answering my phone call was unprofessional and rude. They know people are disappointed that rice isn't included and no where is that stated If I can give less stars I would.
