REVIEWS OF Thai Cuisine IN Rhode Island

Thomas K

I have an absolute love for Thai food so I always seek out these restaurants in new towns. This place was delicious, it seems that you can find quite a few great places like this all over the northeast. Naturally I am almost always going for curry, today was the red curry with eggplant. Fantastic rich flavors galore. Cute place, very clean, fast and friendly service. I absolutely recommend it to anyone.

Eileen Iocolano Pacheco

Excellent

Jason Wardman

The salt and pepper squid! Seriously good.

Craig Currier

Love love love this place. We eat alot of different cuisines and love thai food. This is hands down the best one we have been to and it is cheap too.

William McGrath

This Thai is wicked pissah!

Reynard The Fox

Was walking around just looking for a place to eat and found this. The food especially the dumplings was very good. Would defiantly recommend if you are looking for a quick meal that’s good

Farrah Qureshi

How is this place rated so high? I got a noodle bowl with beef and it was by far one of the worst dishes I’ve ever had in my life. Obscenely salty.

Sanne Kure-Jensen

Delicious red curry lunch. Generous portions. Reasonable prices. Fast service. Simple setting.

vijay kaushik

Nice place

Cody L

Do not eat here. I never write reviews and I have gone out of my way to write this one. Meat tasted a week old. Customer service was non existent. Do the Thai community a favor by not supporting this lack culinary pride.

Jared Rehberg

Great option for lunch in a seafood town.

Imran Khaja

Excellent food in a small intimate setting.

Bill Pendergast

Daniel Echt

Great food and friendly service

Eugene Korolev

Love the food. Have no idea where all the negative reviews are coming from, but this is hands down the best Thai food my wife and I tried so far. Very reasonably priced and not overcrowded.

Anuran Duttaroy

Awesome food. Highly recommended.

Ginny Evans

Good food. I didn't find many options on the menu that looked good to me but the curry I ordered was wonderful. The main reason for the low rating was service. It took almost 10 minutes to get water and have them take our order. The food came quickly but then after that it took a long time to get someone's attention to ask after the restroom and get the check.

Michael Phillips

Thai Cuisine is a nice small restaurant with good food but spotty service. Not bad, but not as consistent as I'd like. But is is small and I think family run, so depending on who is there serving that day, you may get a pleasant smile, or none at all. Anyway, the food is consistently delicious. I'm not a Thai expert and not super adventurous, but the usual dishes taste good to me. The prices are in line with this type of place, not rock bottom Asian, but not pricey. If you're looking for decent Thai food while in Newport, give this place a try.

U'ilani Birch

Fish Cake App FANTASTIC!!! Watch out for green curry, very very spicy without warning. I like spicy foods, but I couldn't even finish this. Wish I had a Chang beer to cool down, but they were out both times I ate here. Tofu dishes were decent, nothing special. Tables need to be fixed or replaced. Otherwise place is decent. I love thai food, so I'll put up with a lot to enjoy it.

Decent meal. A bit on the pricey side though.

Jay McNally

Singapore noodle was great

Suchada Connors

Authentic thai food in Newport. Ordered chu-chee curry never ordered any other thai places before, they did very good job!

Jhonatan Guzman

Very good fried bananas ice cream and pad Thai

Frank Rivera

Had delivery from here today, chicken tasted old Besides ordered the Chicken Panaang mildly spicy ( on a scale from 1-4 I ordered it to be 1) and they ignored it, was spicy as hell. Never going to order from here again. I'll stay with Bangkok City.

Beth Capotosto

Worst Pad Thai I have ever had. Noodles were completely frdri out and lack lustre. Very disappointing

A Hargraves

Great Thai food. I love their fried rice.

Mike Bujakowski

Abigail Rose-Craver

Ordered the shrimp pad see ew lunch combo, and it was great. About $13 for entree, soup, salad, and 2 pieces of crab rangoon. Everything was great. The shrimp was very fresh- no fishy taste. And it was equal part noodles and veggies. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. Restaurant is fairly clean with a good bit of seating while you wait or dine in. Ordered to-go and it was ready within 12 minutes. Note there's a $15 minimum if you plan to pay via card. There are a couple of free parking spots right in front of the restaurant if you go on a weekday during the off-season.

Varsha Bhargava

Okay so, my husband and I were growing tired of over paying and not getting enough food in Rhode island. And this place just help us out. Super flavorful food, real that spice, less of quantity, fast service. It's a little unprofessional but who cares if the food is that good.

Ken Blass

Very good food. Service rather slow

Remco Slootweg

Loved the Choo Chee Curry with duck. Spicy, but great flavours!

Carl Hugle

Amazing!

Bob Damiano

Always great food, but SEVENTEEN F'n DOLLARS for a glass of wine?!! Wont be back.

Y

We loved the food here and being a vegan they were very accommodative to making my pineapple curry without any fish or oyster sauce. The other dish we ordered was drunken noodles and the spice was perfect. It was post lunch when we came here and there was hardly any crowd. The place is well maintained and staff are friendly.

Arundeep Mittra

Food is delicious

Gordon Kwong

Okay Thai food but a little too much sugar and alot of green and red pepper. Calamari was tender and crispy. Mussels were a bit over cooked and not that flavourful in a fair tasting water based broth, which would be much better with less water and some cream of coconut. Just didn't seem as good as my past visits.

geo guadagno

This quick review is in regards to a delivery: Pros: Whomever answered the phone made the ordering simple. Delivery was quick...about half the estimated 1 hour. Cons: Overpriced...over $30.00 for a rice with shrimp, side of fried wontons, and a small soup. All of the food was very bland and needed additional condiments...actually worst impression of Thai food I have had. No condiments were given with the order. The delivery person just left the bag on the door...glad for this one actually because I would have been a bit upset if a tip was given. Do yourself a favor and just order from a local chinese spot if ordering delivery.

Rahul

Good food

Owen Thornhill

Went here for lunch, It was great value, loved the food and couldn't finish the generous portion. Its a must to go back. It was quiet when i was there so we had plenty of service and chit chat with the waitress.

Alex Moy

I work five minutes away, so it's an incredibly convenient place for me to get lunch. Fortunately, this place has easily become my favorite restaurant. The drunken noodles are incredible, and the curry is a close second place. The interior is nice and the staff are all great people. I would eat here every day if I could. But really, get the drunken noodles.

generic comment

Expensive for low to mediocre quality food. Visiting from Baltimore where there is just about every kind of authentic food out there including great Thai food. This was listless with seemingly little to no authentic Thai flavor. Look elsewhere.

Great place, the food was fresh and tasty the wait staff were very prompt and pleasant, definitely a place to go back to

Thor Ritz

Nice place with good portions, price very reasonable. Staff friendly. My wife and I eat here on our visits to Newport.

Dave Crossland

Kathy Poupart

Excellent food, warm and welcoming decor, good service, and a little slice of Zen right on a very busy Thames St.

Kerry Paradise

New Owners!! Delicious Thai. We had the Duck Choo Chee and the Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Honey Mustard Sauce and Thai Iced Teas. The new owners were very friendly and talking to everyone. Note: if you are worried about spiciness, gluten options, or vegetarian options just let them know and they can accommodate your preferences. Next time I will get it a little less spicy for me and keep it normal for the hubby

Amelia Mason

Sanjeev Noel

Had the thai fried rice n drunken noodles, both very good. Service wt?

Darryl H

The food arrived hot and exactly as I ordered! The driver Dom, was verynice,and efficient. Have been ordering from here often and will continue as, should you!!

Andrew Stolberg

I have had it delivered multiple times to multiple places and it has exceeded my expectations. I had the spicy wings, chicken pad Thai, and the beef drunken noodles. All three dished were outstanding. The only reason I keep getting take out is because the food Is delicious.

Nick Hill

Food was spot on. Service was timely and polite. Thai iced tea is pretty good! The price is a little high, but the portions are ample. #voluptuousportions The decor is really peaceful.

Muthu Krishnan

Charlie gourlay

Great choices and relatively inexpensive.

Not what it used to be. The Coconut chicken soup was nice and mango spring rolls just right but the place felt dirty, the service not attentive at all and the rest of the food was too copious with no flavor.

Pamela Campbell

Chicken cashew served in pineapple half was delicious.

Mike Stoller

I've been a huge fan of getting delivery from this place for the last year and a half. However, yesterday, I come here to dine in for lunch for the first time and had a completely different experience. My wife and I walk in to a restaurant with only one other table of customers. The host/waitress yells across the restaurant that we can sit wherever we like. We then sit for 5 minutes without ever getting greeted, getting menus, or getting drink orders. We eventually leave, because if I can't even get a menu, how long will it take for me to get my food? I hate to say it, but I probably won't go back, even though I love the food.

Stephen Ferris

Excellent food and service. By far the best wontons in Newport!

Ingrid Lee

Food delicious. Service was less than stellar. Slow and not very welcoming. Arrived first customers of the day and were barely greeted. She actually just unlocked the door and left it ajar in our face instead of holding it open. She then took 2 phone orders before we were even given water. She never checked on us or cleared plates. She didnt talk to us much at all. We were the only customers...another 2 customers came in while we were there and she was just as cool toward them. Maybe she was in a bad mood but it spoiled the experience. Food was tasty and different from most Thai restaurant offerings where we are from.

Santhanasurya Athmalingam

Robyn Townsend

Nice outside area but the Pad Thai was a congealed bowl of noodles with minimal flavor.

Kishorekumar Rajendran

Janice Clark

Awesome drunken noodles, spring rolls ,wontons...spicey green beans!! Great takeout!! Highly recommend!

PB61234

Best meal I have had in all of Newport. A can not miss taste treat! Fabulous Thai.

mike corcoran

Drunken noodles are

Suzanne Varisco

The best I can say about this restaurant is that it delivers. Unlike the many other Thai restaurants I have visited, over the years, the food here is oily and minimally seasoned, and the vegetables are soggily overcooked. Better quality dishes, by far, are available just a few miles away in two Middletown restaurants. After three attempts, I say, "No thanks."

Heather Merrill

Amazing food for a great price! love the chicken pad thai. Makes great leftovers too!

JHOANNA P

i love thai food ! this one is good and a reasonable price and in a nice area...

Avishek Nandi

Good food. The parking in the area is $10 unless you are ready to walk.

Joe Chaithanya

Pardon me if it's a cultural thing but the waiters and the service providers can attempt a smile once a while. Great place for Thai cuisine and for groups or individuals to dine at.

Jake

First off, the food is good. In fact, it is the best Thai food on the island. That is the nicest thing you will read from here on out. My wife and I, along with friends and family have eaten here on a few occasions. This evening was the last time. The service is consistently horrible! The waitresses are rude. It took over twenty minutes for them (yes, there was more than one waitress that ignored us throughout the evening) to take our order/check on us. At one point, I contemplated calling in an order, picking it up at the till, and sitting down to eat it...just to make a point. One of the waitresses on two occasions, walked away from the table when we were still placing our order for appetizers and the main course. Needless to say, they messed up both. They do not care one bit about the customers that come into the restaurant. It is safe to say that they make most of their money from take out orders. I can say this with absolute certainty because I have eaten there a few times and have seen the take-out orders stacked on a table. I could go on and on about the reasons I am so disgusted in the service, but nobody is interested in hearing the ramblings of a disgruntled customer. I will leave you with this thought: After this evenings stellar performance by the waiting staff, they had the audacity to add an 18% gratuity (AFTER TAX) to our party of four's tab. Had I not been concerned about ruining everyone else in the restaurant's dining experience, I would have given the waiting staff and manager a piece of my mind. Hopefully, this review will discourage some people from eating there. That, oh that, would be sweet justice to me.

I quite enjoyed the Choo Chee Curry!

Phil Knight

The prices are pretty reasonable, especially for the area we were in. I had a basil chilli sauce mixed with seafood and vegetables. You can order your food with a spiciness of 1 to 5 "chilis". I got a 4 and it was pretty spicy. I like spicy things but still want to be able to taste the other flavors in my food. Four (4) "chilis" might have been a little more than I would've preferred but the food was good. The seafood was all cooked properly (i.e not overdone but not undercooked). The squid was a bit chewy, but I have yet to find a place where it's not chewy. I can only assume that it is just the texture of it cooked. The vegetables were still quite crunchy. Some people don't like it when their cooked vegetables are this raw. Most Asian restaurants do do this. So if you are accustomed to your veggies having some crunch in them, I would say this place has a bit more of a crunch factor than normal. I like it that way, so I was very happy. The waitress was very attentive: brought us water with lemon without prompt, and refilled our glasses without us having to call over or wait, and considering how often I was chugging my water down I was impressed how often she came over without even having to look for her. If you enjoy Thai food, or just healthy Asian food, you can't go wrong here, especially if you are on a budget.

Good food, friendly service. Mixed up orders and checks

robertroyer3980

Always have a good meal here. Thai ice tea is great!

Robert Blouch

Great food. Service was a little slow. Will be going back many more times.

Thomas Tanner

Loved this place for years. However I had an Absolutely debilitating 48 hours after eating here. I don’t think it was food poisoning I think it was plain poisoning. I remember the exact dish where it hit me. Specifically five minutes after a complaint to the server who is one of the rudest I’ve ever had a Newport. Shame. Also I wasn’t the only one in the party to experience this, furthermore I’m now hearing there is a history here.

Flora Prestipino

This was my first visit and it was excellent. The food was delicious and prepared to perfection. I will be back.

Yan Zhang

Food was OK. 1/3. Decor is fair, except that two flies were around the table all the time. 0/3. Service is terrible. 0/3. I ordered a soda with refill. At the first time, the waitress brought me a cup of ice and a bottle of Sprite. But when I asked for the refill after I finished the first bottle (it was really hot and humid) and asked her for the refill, she brought me a cup of iced soda, not a bottled Sprite. I tried the soda, it was tap water with some Sprite added! And it might be someone's leftover. That was so cheap and disgusting! Avoid this place at all cost.

Cody Jackson

Pad see ew was great.

hcabalo

We are NEVER ordering from this place again! Over 3 times I have called and asked if they will deliver to Portsmouth and when I call back a couple minutes later to order, literally five minutes later, they can't deliver. The first time, I was annoyed. The second my husband said to not order from there again and this last time was the icing on the cake. I do not understand how they can say it was because the delivery guy called in sick, 3 times. If delivery starts at 5, shouldn't they know by 5 that their delivery guy isn't coming? Come on! We live less than 5 minutes from Middletown. This place is beyond ridiculous! The service inside the restaurant isn't much better. The food is really good, but we will never order from this place again and I hope no one will have to endure what we did from this place.

Igor Deyneko

Atrocious service. The staff has asked to change seats several times. The tables were wet and everything smelled like Windex. We made an order and it was messed up. We tried getting their attention and no result. Ended up walking up to the waitress who has dismissed our request stating that Pellegrino is the same thing as Perrier. In addition, the lady who was folding napkins with silverware kept wiping her nose and then carrying on with folding napkins. Very unsanitary. Didn't even bother with trying the food.

LaniMarc Dupre

18% gratuity was added automatically to our lunch bill...yes, we did see the warning on their menu but it says "could be added". Not once did the waitress come by to ask how everything was, and yet they think they deserve 18%??? Worst chicken satay we ever had, it was rubbery. Our main dishes came with chicken, which was really not cooked well enough. Out of everything we ordered, only the fried wontons and thai iced coffee were acceptable. Definately has gone dowhill since the last time we went there in 2010/11.

Nick Bentley

Uma Chapagain

For a pick up, they charged me double and got my order wrong. Food was smelling as if it was made a long time ago.

Debra Banks

The food was AMAZING!!!! The balance of flavors, freshness, and spice was perfect! Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area.

Megan Klein Hattori

The best spring onion cakes in Rhody! They deliver and will tell you a time but are always there in less than a half hour. excellent.

Siddharth Jhaveri

Mahender Voruganti

Food was ok...parking is tough

Nikitin Sethi

Giving 3 stars since food is good but the service is very slow. There is a chance you might arrive at this place and keep standing for 10 mins as no one will be at the front desk. This happened to me couple times. I keep coming back for chilli chilli fish but get disappointed when I just have to keep waiting.

Popeye Kahn

Good food at decent prices with good service...all good...

Caitlin Stanton

So freaking good! I eat Thai food regularly and this place is in my top 3 of all time. I went in expecting the same old average menu. This place has dishes I've never seen before. We got mango fresh rolls and the shrimp Saigon noodles. The noodles seemed homemade and were so flavorful and perfectly pan seared. A good balance between authentic and Americanized. If you like Thai food you'll find this place to be refreshingly creative and absolutely delicious.

Arpan Saha

Food was really good but the waitress was really impatient to take the order that's the reason I rated it 3.

Luke Herbert

Quite wonderful. The curry is fantastic. Food here is consistently great. Service always wonderful. Atmosphere is super relaxed. I invite anyone to enjoy this great Thai culinary experience if they want a nice diversion from the hustle and bustle of Thames a touch north. Great experience

Cindy Chan

Most authentic Thai food I have eaten. The Panang curry was great, I did wish there was more sauce like a soup instead of the veggies but it was hardy.

Aunna Maschek

We got the Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, Basil Chicken, Lab Gai, and Red Curry. The food had great flavor and only the red curry was too spicy for my mom

Vivek Mathur

Food was okay, but the service was bad. We had to ask and wait for plates, after they brought the appetizers and entrees. Also, they automatically put an 18% "service charge" in addition to all the taxes, and still expect a tip with the bad service that they provide. On a positive note, the serving portions are HUGE. There is free refill for iced tea and iced coffee, one thing I did not find in any Thai restaurant. You can try this place if you just want good food and don't mind the service.

sowmya shreehs

Good taste and clean restaurant

Nick L

Great Thai place! The Hot Basil Fried Rice is amazing here, and the Thai Iced Tea is a MUST.

J T

Don’t eat in. Order take out. Food is good, service is not.

justin cardoso

The most amazing Thai food you could ask for. The Drunkin noodles are a must have here! And the staff is super nice too! A Thames st classic.

Michael Subee

Food was okay, service was horrible

Patricia Pinkham

Loved the pad Thai!

Kathleen Pavlakis

Used to go here at least once a week when I lived within walking distance. My husband and I went a couple of months ago and it has gone downhill, both in the quality of the food, the cleanliness and the service. Then we went again later to give it a second chance and it was worse. I suspect that it is not the same owners as when I used to go in 2013.

Suraj Persaud

Good food ,but small portions

Laura Goldner

This place was just ok. Food didn't seem fresh or authentic Thai. The place looked dirty. Service was just ok. Not a place I would go back to. There's many many more good restaurants to choose from in Newport.

Kartheek Alladi

Limited veggie options but very tasty and delicious... Don't miss out the Thai iced tea...

Robert Grosso

Great food. Speedy service. The best of Newport.

Erwin Vickroy

Tamiie Forbes

The service is not the best.

Lucaus Beland

My girlfriend loved this place so this review will mostly be because of her.... The food in my opinion was very good and tasteful.... By tasteful I mean spicy and I needed my water and hers lmao! But great little spot to get some grub :) check it out!

Nedas Ignatavicius

It was a great place for lunch. The Thai Green curry and Thai Red curry were really good. They even have good dessert options, we had fried banana with ice cream and coconut ice cream. Both were really good.

The meat was bad and service was slow and inattentive. The thai tea was good.

Deepak Jhaveri

Great food!

Robert Blessley

I live 360 miles away and every time I come to Newport I stop off a Thai cuisine for a good meal I'm always satisfied It's always clean in the helps always friendly

Marie Kenney

Delicious food nice presentation reasonable prices

Yining Fan

Lori

We absolutely loved our meals. Drunken noodle and shrimp/pineapple/cashew dish. Really excellent

Ryan DeLuck

Love the food here

noah brisson

Never disappoints. Food is fantastic and delivery is generally pretty fast. However, if you can't wait to eat and they tell you a long delivery wait you can get the food in a fraction of the time if you pick it up.

Could be better...
