Simply put, we were very disappointed. We used to think this was the best Thai food in Richmond, but not after this night. The jasmine rice was terribly overcooked and mushy. This alone should say a lot. The entrees lacked balance and honestly were just bland. Spicy is not spicy here either. They offer chili oil at the table if you want your spice level higher, some dry chili would be preferable for some dishes. I hope this was just a bad night, if not, they went from the best to the worst Thai food I've had in Richmond.Service was average, little slow.Atmosphere: Decore is very nice, but the place feels dead somehow even with people in it. It's so quiet and you just listen to people clinking their silverware around.

Spicy Thai Basil for lunch. The flavors were good. The Thai Hot spice level was medium at best. Definitely one of the mildest Thai Hots I've had in the area. Reasonably priced.

If you're looking for delicious Thai food- look no further! These dishes were full of flavor. I got the Curry Noodle with Tofu (Level 3 Spicy) and my sister got the Pad Woonsen with Tofu (Level 3 Spicy). The Pad Woonsen came with a side of rice too which is great with that extra spice.I also ordered Crab Rangoon for the table. Do not skimp on these. GET THEM. Thank you Chadar!!

I absolutely love this restaurant! After trying Thai places near and far, it has the most delicious dishes I've ever had. Their Pad Thai is fabulous and their Pad See Ew is amazing!! My family has loved their curries and soups.A family run restaurant, Chadar Thai has friendly service and is a hidden gem!Vegetarian options: Lots of delicious vegetarian options are available.Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome here.
My favorite Thai restaurant! My dinner consisted of shrimp spring rolls, Tom Yum soup, Amazing Thai with shrimp, and some homemade Thai ice cream to finish (Thai tea and Pandan flavor). Everything was amazing. The Tom Yum soup and the ice cream are both out of this world, highly recommended! You could order anything here and not go wrong. It might not look like much from the outside, but inside the atmosphere is clean, cozy, and casual. The service was great too. 9.2/10

I was shocked at how empty this place was shortly after 12 on a Saturday. Their lunch specials are very reasonably priced and everything they had was so tasty! From the Thai iced tea, to the drunken noodles and the mussamun curry. The environment was great and the server was just as delightful. Wish they got the traction here that they deserve!!
