“I ordered the happy family and Thai basil chicken fried rice and asked them to make it spicy level 5. Man, I underestimated the spice!! Lol, but I love my food spicy honestly the food was delicious ?, this is now my favorite Asian food takeout in Philly so far. Also, I don’t think you can place the order in person call and place the order and the food takes about 45-50 min to be ready for pick up.“
“The only Thai place I will order from in the entire Philadelphia vicinity. The best staff. The best food. The best experience. I will forever give JJ Thai my business and always recommend them to friends & family. By the way, if your server is Air, be prepared because she is the absolute best server I have came across in any restaurant. I worked in the service industry myself, and to come across someone like Air is truly a blessing. She is so friendly, goes above and beyond, and always ensures the best customer service. Thank you JJ Thai and thank you Air for continuous unforgettable experiences.“
“Was a fan of the old La Na before it went downhill a little before pandemic lockdown. This is in same location but new management and it seems like they are back to providing really good, fresh Thai food! All the vegetables were vibrant and crisp. The sauces were light and fragrant. The establishment seemed to be cleaned up. They could use a dining room refresh but it does give you the feeling of an authentic Thai restaurant, a lot of deep reds, dark browns and black. Service was fun and pleasant! Can’t wait to go back!“
“Anchan is a culinary treasure trove that promises an authentic Thai dining experience like no other. From the moment you step foot into this cozy establishment, you’re greeted with warmth & hospitality that’s as genuine as the flavors they serve. Owners Apple & Adam set the tone with their welcoming demeanor, ensuring every visit feels like a homecoming. The staff, armed with a wealth of knowledge about Thai cuisine, guide you through a menu brimming with tantalizing options. From the zesty Tom Yom soup to the delicate vegetable dumplings & refreshing Som Yom salad, each starter sets the stage for a culinary adventure. The Pad Thai, a perennial favorite, delights with its harmonious blend of flavors, while the crispy duck emerges as a true star, boasting unparalleled succulence & flavor. But the delights don’t end there. Anchan’s curry dishes, such as the green curry with vegetables & tofu, showcase the restaurant’s mastery of Thai flavors, leaving taste buds tingling with delight. And let’s not forget the blue of anchan itself, a charming touch that adds to the restaurant’s allure! From the Anchan rice & tea to the coconut ice cream, every dish is a testament to the culinary prowess of this beloved Thai eatery. In a sea of dining options, Anchan stands out as a beacon of excellence, earning its place as a favorite among Thai food enthusiasts. If you’re in search of an unforgettable dining experience that’s as delightful as it is delicious, look no further than Anchan!“
“So happy to see one of my favorite food trucks is back! Food still slaps after all these years. Love the chicken katsu, which is so crispy and juicy, and I enjoyed a delicious platter today. You can choose tacos, burrito, platter or a burger for the protein options. The peanut curry chicken over rice is also phenomenal but only available on Monday and Tuesday. I’ll be back soon for that plus some shrimp katsu. The folks on the truck couldn’t be nicer!“
“I've been a customer of Trio BYOB for almost a decade. And I can honestly say they're the best Thai restaurant in the city. Everything is always tasty and fresh. I like the fact that they have their own ordering website which works very well so you don't have to deal with tech disruptors and they also do their own delivery. The delivery guy is friendly, courteous and kind.But getting back to the food, they also offer creative specials which you can also order via delivery, as well as dining in. That includes desserts. And what desserts! Hazelnut torte, panna cotta. Very impressive. I rave about this place to everyone I know. Stop by and experience Thai food that is a cut above.“
“An unassuming thai restoraunt in the middle of nowhere (at least to me as a visitor of the city). It was a small cozy resto with decent service and some lowkey décor. Gold coloured cups was a plus. Chicken skewers - White meat was dry, but the peanut sauce was really good. Pad see ew - pad see ew was tasty. The stirfried dish was seasoned well with lots of different flavour. It was only missing a bit of char, otherwise really good. Would recommend. Some decent food, but as a tourist to the city, I would not be coming back. There are other restos for me to try. But as a local, I can see myself coming back to grab casual meals.“
“We stopped in close to closing for takeout and Joy at the counter was delightful and helpful. We ordered Massaman curry and Thai tea and both were made quickly. Now that we are home, we are discovering that their food is EXCELLENT. We look forward to going back and dining in.“
“The Crispy Chicken Basil is my favorite dish. Chicken is tender while lightly fried with sweet basil. Batter shipped green beans are delicious. Everything was spiced just right. Spicy but not too spicy. You may ask for extra. Service is exceptional. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend Viman Thai restaurant.“
“They have a $10 lunch special which is unheard of in this economy - it's fallen off the website's menu but you can get any of the typical thai favs (red curry, drunken noodles, etc.) with rice and a side salad. Generous portions, too. Just be sure to call ahead to ensure they're offering it before going in! I'm always a fan of a fried wonton and their golden bags are a good app to pair with your lunch special entree.“
“While the dusty old interior might give you pause, this is one of the best OG Thai meals in town. Fresh, tasty, and plentiful, the food here is like being welcomed by a most hospitable Thai mom (and yes, the kitchen is run by authentic Thai chefs). Deliciously wholesome and satisfying every time (and vegetarian and vegan accommodating). Plus, the waitstaff embody that same authentic hospitality -- always warm, attentive, and gracious. This restaurant is truly a neighborhood gem.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options, and the kitchen will accommodate vegan too :)Dietary restrictions: The kitchen can make special accommodations.“
“I had a delightful dining experience last night at the Thai orchid. The staff was so welcoming and nice. The owner went out of his way to check that they had decaffeinated tea for me which I greatly appreciated. The experience was genuinely refreshing. Then the food came out. The green curry was amazing! So creamy with outstanding flavor. The spice level was just right. Not to hot it was uncomfortable to eat, but just enough to make me sweat a little. This is a hidden gem of a restaurant“
“I had fried rice with chicken and steak. It was delicious. Only problem was I ask for mild but I didn't taste anything spicy at all not even a lil kick. Next time I'm going to try hot. But overall nice neighborhood right next to Rita water ice. Great customer service and great first dish. I definitely recommend people to try Thai food from here.“
“My husband and I were at the Spector center for squash and looking for a good place for dinner. We popped over to Lemon Grass and had a delicious dinner with the nicest staff. The drunken noodles were just what I needed on a cold, rainy night.I ended up leaving my purse there and they were super nice getting back to me letting me know they had it. They even let us pick it io before they opened.We will definitely be going back there!“
“Need a tasty authentic lunch before you meander through the Mutter (which has no restaurant)? The dear lady here interrupted cutting and folding her banana leaves to seat a weary traveler taking a few hours of “medical me-time.” Simple and clean, small homely place, only a few steps from the museum. My soup, followed by Tilapia were both super tasty and presentation was impeccable. Belly filled with Thai tasty treats, I took on the museum with vigor and excitement.“
“Great little place + very decent prices for these days, i've been steady disappointed by Thai lately and can't afford even a lot of hole in the wall places. It's very rare that a curry is fully flavorful, they were nice, simple cute spot, definitely was busy with tons of takeout, cooked fresh so there was a bit of a wait which seemed normal considering it's a small spot. Rare to find a place worth going back! The Thai iced tea was correct!“
“I stopped in by myself on a brutally hot summer evening looking for cold, light food. The vegetarian naam salad was over-the-top delicious. Crunchy and sweet/savory, served with crisp, fresh lettuce leaves for wrapping. Delightful on a hot night. Pad See Eew was a heavier dish, a little bland and pasty (corn starch?), and was better when I added lime and chili oil. The service was outstanding, the ambiance and air conditioning delightful. Definitely worth a visit.“
“Ordered the coconut salmon and it did not disappoint. Incredible sauce with a perfectly cooked piece of salmon. The spicy flavoring really gave it a unique kick. Absolutely delicious, only thing that would have made it perfect is that I would have liked slightly more rice to balance out the sauce-heavy dish.“
“Me and My Bestfriend took a hour long bus ride just to get some food from here it is that delicious an worth it and they not stingy on they portions like all hood Chinese stores they were friendly great customer service I will definitely be going “
“Absolutely amazing Thai food to go. We ordered the Fried Tofu (super crispy and firm but not dried or greasy), shumai (pretty good but a bit dense and could not really make out the shrimp or crab), fantastic Tom ka (order it spicy!), pad Thai, drunken noodles, and sweet and sour chicken for the kids! The noodles were good and spicy and the kiddos loved the sweet and sour. It was such good chicken, the adults even enjoyed. But the cherry on top was the absolutely kind and sweet phone and in person service - which is becoming a diamond in the rough. Super impressed from the first hello to the last bite!“
“Didn’t go there ordered from door dash so I can’t rate atmosphere . I added things in the order and I got all the extra things I asked for in the specialInstructions. Most places ignore that or don’t allow you to do that. The food is delicious they package everything so nicely I’ve only ordered two times but this place is my new go to! Give them a try youWon’t be disappointed.“
“An underrated gem, we were told by a mutual friend who happens to be Cambodian, to try out this place for good Thai food in Manayunk. Got take out and we were really not that hungry so ordered just the Noodles and Thai curry. The portions were generous, wait time was short and food tasted good. It was slightly heavy on the fish sauce and that's why not great to my liking . Will definitely give them another try. Can't say much about the ambiance as it is a take out spot.“
“Big fan of Thai food and sometimes hard to find places that have vegetarian curry without fish sauce, but this place does it! Might be my favorite Thai place in Philly! They are also so great about customizing dishes and adding vegetables, etc. Also very good about accommodating allergies. Highly recommend the red curry, chive cakes, spring rolls, and Thai iced coffee!Vegetarian options: Curry can be made without fish sauceDietary restrictions: VegetarianSesame seed, coconut, tree nut allergies“
“The food here is overall very good. The green curry is spot on, I think we got medium spiciness which was perfect. The massaman was only OK, not authentic, I won’t order it again. The staff are lovely. I haven’t eaten in so can’t comment on the atmosphere.“
“Pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem! My husband and I dined here early on a Friday evening. We had the tofu and steak appetizers, Tom Yum soup, green curry, and coco-shrimp.Everything was delicious, flavorful, and came out hot! Service was prompt and efficient. We will definitely be back for dining in or take out in the future!“
“If your looking for true Punjabi food you will not be disappointed in the amount of options they have at this restaurant. There are vegetarian and non vegetarian options for any persons taste. We enjoyed many Tandoor Appetizers that were cooked to perfection. The food came in a very timely manner. The portion sizes was perfect for a large group of people. When you ask for mild you indeed get mild food and if you ask for spicy they accommodate accordingly. I will make this one of my must visit stops when I'm back in the area.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly! There were children with their families here. Very inviting for children“
“Excellent food. Fine quickly to order. Staff is friendly and willing to answer any questions. Especially request like food allergies are handled without question. Spicy level is managed well. I'm not had a bad meal here. I just wish they sold the soup and gallon drugs because it's so good.“
“Amazing food!! We got the Beef Pad Thai spice level 5 and it was super super spicy and super good! This is my first time ordering from here and I will definitely be ordering more! One of the best Pad Thai ! The portions are huge ! But very filling and highly recommended! Must try and glad this place is local to us. These pictures represent just one serving“
