Ratchada Thai & Laos Cuisine

This spot is an absolute gem. The food was INCREDIBLE and the atmosphere was extremely cozy. My partner and I got red curry and khao soi and everything was flavorful, hot, and delicious. We really appreciated the lighting and beautiful textile art all over the restaurant. Extensive menu with tons of vegetarian and vegan options. The servers were extremely kind and quick. New favorite spot in the neighborhood and I only wish we had gone sooner.

The food was pretty terrible for takeout - very small protein portions for the price and the food was not tasty. The green curry was quite oily and thin - kind of like a bamboo shoot soup with a tiny amount of chicken. All of the pad kee mao noodles were dry and stuck together which made it even more difficult to hunt for the very limited amount of beef that was supposed to be in there.

No delivery outside of app services.

My Thai wife and I go to Ratchada regularly and it’s always a great experience. Service is always friendly and attentive and the food is always great and authentic. For our last visit, I ordered cashew chicken and my wife had the Ka na moo krob and as usual it was fantastic!

This place deserves to be the best Thai place in Philly in my life so far. They have the most authentic Thai&Lao menu and vibe. The service was perfect, lemon water, and strong spices. I truly can’t find any flaw, except for the slightly fancy price. But I didn’t regret to pay at all. More than worth trying if you like southeast Asian food.

**Simply phenomenal!** Whether you're planning a cozy family dinner or a romantic date night, this place delivers. The atmosphere was elevated by the soulful Bossa Nova music, creating the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable meal. The food was so delicious and plentiful that we had to take home **not one, but two** to-go boxes. Highly recommend!

I’m glad we came to Ratchada for my last birthday dinner in Philly! We got the veggie sample, Thai crepes, drunken noodles, basil tofu, crab fries rice and soup. The drunken noodles were very tasty and spicy, the Thai fried rice, could be more flavorful but still okay. The service was great and the waitresses were very nice!

What a surprise ! On a cloudy rainy day, we decided to go to a Thai Lau restaurant located in South Philly. This is a asian community part of South Philadelphia, where you find many markets, restaurants, and retail business of that nature I’ve been coming to this area for over 25 years, but this is the first time I’ve been in this restaurant, this has a very nice sign for the restaurant located above the main entrance, but looking at the restaurant, you wouldn’t really think much of it until you walk inside this is a beautifully decorated restaurant almost has a little romantic feel to it while it was kind of early for dinner, we were there around 4 PM, and there was one other couple in there there was very nice music playing, and we seated immediately by a nice young lady, we decided to try the Buddha veggie dumplings, which were excellent. They were lightly fried and really filled with vegetables. A lot of places when you get dumplings, they will be kind of half filled with a little more dough than filling itself not these these were packed with a nice dipping sauce on the side we share these they were excellent as you’ve seen the pictures, we also decided to order the green curry entrée with tofu. This was excellent very creamy and excellent curry balance that had bamboo shoots, bell peppers, string beans fresh basil although it says very spicy it was not unbearable. The creaminess made up for the spiciness and had a very balanced flavor and we also decided to order a Tom Yum pak soup,
This was a veggie lemon grass, soup, hot and sour style with tofu, mixed veggies, onions, lemongrass, lime, basil leaves,galagal and mushrooms. This was a little bit spicy, not overwhelming and very well done. We had a little bit of tea and it was just a really nice laid-back atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves as a few more couples came in. This really had a nice romantic ambience to it and would be a great place to takea date or a family. This is kind of a hidden gem.
