Informal curry house & takeaway turning out elevated Thai specialties in a modest location.
The food here is amazing. Flavorful, colorful, and generous portions. If you want extra spicy, they bring you a whole selection of pepper options. My only complaint is the perfume smell when you enter the restaurant. I would rather smell the amazing food. Edited to add that we went back tonight and the perfume smell was gone! Food is still fantastic.
I wish this place was more known!! I decided to try this place last minute. My order was done within 15 minutes, I was able to order online and modify my food to my liking! The serving was definitely a shareable portion size. My fiancée got the chicken pad Thai (10/10!), and I got the vegetable paid Thai with no egg and no bean sprouts. Everything was made perfectly to order. The vegetable pad Thai has mixed veggies in it. 10/10! I’d definitely eat here again. The picture I included was what we were saving for the next day because there was a large amount!
The only thing I would change is that they charge you a fee when ordering online.
Nice staff, large menu excellent yellow curry. Very clean inviting dinning area
Boba was out instantly it tastes heavenly the tapioca pearls taste a little weird but was out quick nice people and pretty cheap
Amazing thai food for great prices. I have not had anything I did not like. The owner is a great person which makes me feel right giving my money to this business. Guy is always positive and there are excellent vegetarian options. He needs to open a place up in Oxford, truly
I’ve gotten take out here many times and it wasn’t until recently that I noticed pricing going up. Which was fine, I get it. I’ve seen gas prices. What I WOULD like you guys to know is that it is illegal in CT to charge extra for credit cards. You can give a cash discount, you CANNOT charge me more for using my card. I suggest you get rid of these extra charges before someone reports you. Food’s good but not very consistent. The workers are not friendly or welcoming.
First time being back in Branford in many decades. I wanted to introduce my parents to some Thai food, so I ordered takeout. Online ordering and pick up was a breeze and the food was fabulous! I will definitely be ordering from them again! Highly recommend!
I love this place. Friendly and efficient. The food is amazing. I order from here at least once a week. This is the best Thai food around, better than every Thai spot in New Haven for sure.

The food is good, and the customer service is not really 😉 just ok

My wife and i always do take out here.
Nice staff, large menu excellent yellow curry. Very clean inviting dinning area
Was there last Sunday.. as soon as my food hit the table, noticed there was a hair… I asked our server, instead of saying “ sorry “ she argues…
It was a great spot to eat good food and quiet
Food is always good and the staff are great

I went to get food there because that's the closest Thai food. Their foods are good.
Food was excellent
The duck was very good and drunken noodles were average. My wife had asparagus shrimp and the asparagus was cooked perfect.Would probably get take out from here instead of dining in.
I adore this place. Incredible chicken pad thai and crab rangoon.
Great! Food I s always consistent
First time getting takeout from Siam Orchids. Food was excellent. Everything we had was very fresh. The crab Rangoon was fantastic
Handicap accessible, very nice people, all fresh ingredients—-the best Thai I have had in over a decade.
Excellent quality Thai food for such a small town, this place is well worth a visit for those who love Thai or who are looking for a good alternative to the poor quality Chinese food in town. I only got takeout here, so I can't provide much detail on the restaurant itself just yet, but the food is worth your coin.

Many wonderful dishes here. I love the crab ragoon.
Delicious thai food! Absolutely amazing and you can tell the owner cares. The gratuity of 3.99% really should just be factored into the price so that they don't have to have signs plastered everywhere taking away from the ambience. The food was divine. I ordered the Hot Basil (Pad Gra Pao) and it was some of the best I've had for a good portion.
I love this place ! The food is awesome - I love the curry dishes and the Siam Orchid special sauce and you must get the crab rangoons - they are the best! The service is great too! I highly recommend it!
Went 3 weeks in a row. Forgot how delicious their food is. Great prices, too. Very accommodating. Love it here!
My favorite place for Thai food!
The service is fantastic, when we went recently the owner was essentially running the restaurant on his own with no help.he was extremely polite and apologetic with the speed of service. When we have gone on normal occasions with a full staff they are fast, efficient, and delicious
We're new to the neighborhood and ordered take-out from Siam Orchids.
When I picked up my order I noticed a sign at the register that says they charge 3.99% to the entire order unless I pay cash.
I understand that the credit card companies charge the business a surcharge however, the business needs to understand that allowing a credit card as a form pf payment benefits both the business and the consumer. Credit cards allow the business to accept more consumers into their establishment.
You want to charge me more for the use of my credit card? You won't see me purchasing anything from Siam Orchids anymore.
Bye bye!
We went right now, and we waited 25 minutes, the waitress was very disgusting and when she went to ask us, she was very angry, and then she told us wait, I'll go answer the phone, and we better go there, the service is very bad, there was no air fresh, it was very hot, I will not go back there, the customer service is very bad, I do not recommend it.
Nice, clean restaurant. Service was friendly, portions were large and the food was good. 3.99% surcharge for credit card , so I'll spend my dining money elsewhere.
I got inside the restaurant around 7:40pm. I ordered and waited for 30 minutes to get foods. The man behind me was there after me and they served him 1st. The lady forgot the spoon then i walked up ask for it and she gave me nasty attitude. I wont be back and never recommend to anyone.

Authentic Thai. Not Vietnamese. Really fresh and good. If you don’t like spicy food, why would you go here?
Try the chicken Pad see ew! 🤤
Blay...loved it....will go back
Really great food and really great people. Definitely would recommend!!
Wanted to give this place a shot after all the good reviews. However the pineapple fried rice was very bland even with the chilli paste added. Not to mention 17 for a regular black plastic take away sized portion. I do not recommend.
I took my son for his fist Thai dinner. He absolutely loved it. He started with a non spicy chicken pad Thai. He’s now hooked. I had a meal I cannot pronounce it spell correctly so, I won’t even try. It was a spicy soupy with shrimp and squid. Again, excellent . I’ve been here tons of times and was always happy with what I ordered .
Hacen esperar mucho a los delivery
long time for a GH order😡😡😡
Food was delicious with generous portions. Had green curry with chicken, leche with chicken, lemon grass shrimp. All were awesome. Mai Tai pork and shrimp steamed dumplings were the best we’ve ever had! Atmosphere and wait staff were courteous and attentive. Highly recommend.
Very quiet and empty. Excellent flavor but we just had soup and it was cold. Would go back however.
I get lunch here once a month, absolutely top notch, love the soup that comes with the pad Thai. Great business, great food!
I wish i could live here. Top tier foods.
Great massage very relaxing would 100% recommend when in San Francisco
Drunken noodles with chicken have a kick which is great. Got the lunch special with small soup last week. I'd give 10 stars if I could.
Not worth the wait or attitude
Some of the best food in the area. Clean facility and good service
All of the appetizers and dishes we ordered were very delicious and flavorful! The staff is very attentive and friendly. We definitely will be back! Thank you!
Check your order. Food is good. Most of the time quality is great, every now and then it is a little lackluster though. Local, fair priced, traditional Thai food.
Yummy and great service
Crushed to learn my fave New Haven spot closed, I was undeterred in finding a good replacement. Siam Orchids didn't disappoint! Authentic flavors and enticing menu. Staff was kind and helpful. Glad to discover this gem.
very nice inside, affordable & food has a clean fresh feeling
Wonderful wonderful place to eat great service delightful food
One of my new favorite places for healthy, delicious Asian cuisine at a great value. Their wonton and silver soups are loaded with healthy delicious vegetables that are low in sodium but delicious and well seasoned. Tried the lunch special with spicy grilled squid and once again loaded with nutritious superfood veggies which were full of flavor and low in salt which I loved. These kind of healthy takeout options are few and far between. Will definitely be back foe more.
Great ang Authentic Thai Food!
This is one of my mother's favorite places to eat. However, we wanted to have lunch there today and the place was freezing cold. Zero heat. I'm sorry to say that we had to leave, it was just too cold in the dining room.
Let's put it this way, the "Super Combo" was a super rip off!!!
Worst service ever, they need to hire more people, ordered bubble tea and the server told me she's too bz to make it. The 1 star is for the server not the restaurant.
Very very good!
Delicious Thai food in a cozy setting. Vegetarian and vegan options.
This place is beautiful the food and staff are amazing definitely coming back here again
Delicious authentic Thai food. Very pretty interior design
Very pleasant atmosphere, very clean, excellent, fresh, cooked-to-order food. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. I highly recommend Siam Orchids!!
I ordered from this Siam Orchids for the very first time tonight. I was instantly happy! The vegetable steamed dumping's were so savory and the Vegetable Pad Thai with tofu tasted delicious.
I've gone her numerous times without ever being dissapointed. They serve very good food. Their portions on take out are very good for the price and my fiancé and I can usually get 2+ meals out of one take out order. Love coming here.
Thai food at it's best
Great Food !!..
Amazing flavor for the price. Delicious noodle dish spicy well balanced and great vegetables. Coconut soup was second to none. Nothing seemed out of place with the dishes I order. Will order from here again.
Drunken noodles and taro bubble tea 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Best Thai int he area! Very friendly staff. Excellent service.
Good authentic Thai food. Not much on atmosphere, but very friendly service.
Excellent customer service. I ordered over the phone and the lady who took the order was very nice. Delicious food. I ordered barbecue chicken, chicken pad thai, shrimp pad thai. The dining area looks very nice but no dine in for now coz of Covid.
Flavor was phenomenal! However, in my party of 8 not a single person was satisfied with the amount of meat included, and everyone agreed that what they got wasn't cut appropriately. It felt like our meal was an annoyance to them, an afterthought just rushed together. This is the second and last time we go there
Great Pad Thai!
First time having Thai food, other then pho once, I loved it
Delicious!
Food was fantastic. My negative is there was a (family members) young boy running around and a older family member that had his phone on with a video that was very loud, and clearly both should not have been in the dining room,let alone at the table next to me. very unprofessional, kinda ruin the experience for my daughter and I.
Definitely one of the best Thai restaurants I know of. Very, very flavorful. Mostly I get the drunken noodle, extra spicy.
The best around. Do yourself a favor and stop in.
Siam Orchids was my go to place for som tam and drunken noodle. At least until tonight where my drunken noodle had no noodles and the som tam was missing the citrus, fish sauce, and basil. Not sure what happened to the restaurant but am giving 3 stars out of respect for the past.
Hoping this is a one off mistake.
Phenomenal food! Come here all the time.
Waitress I had tonight was a miserable, entitled, millennial. Needs a reality check. Her father even told her to shut up at one point lmao. Definitely doesn’t belong within 50 feet of any customer service position but, it won’t stop me from coming back as I hope the next time I’m there she won’t be!
Pad Thai was great! 10/10 would recommend!
Great food.
Great staff. Pho was delicious, chicken curry was a little more liquidy than I'd prefer and the texture was a bit odd, but overall pretty good food!
Good food!
Varied menu. Good food.
The best.
Me
Excellent staffs and Outstanding Foods with great fair prices., LOVE the Southeast Asian Laos and Thai American culture, Keep up the Amazing Job !
Staff is very friendly and I eat here all the time. Everything is nice and hot with great flavors. I love the crab rangoons and mango fried rice. Food is a little greasy for me but definitely tastes great^.^
Very very good food, nicely presented
Tastefully decorated in traditional Asian style with a varied menu of curries, noodles, sweet, peanut and fiery selections. Ours is a mixed marriage one vegetarian one carnivore. No problem. Quick service, attractive presentation, great taste and ample quantity. We plan to work our way through this menu.
The food was not bad but not Oh I’m coming back food . The service, we got our appetizers before our drinks so for whatever that’s works. But we came here from Wallingford to try a new Thai place and I can say this Sirinan’s Thai and Pho Ethan in Wallingford both are way tastier ✌️
Great well priced food, a really good stop if you're on a road trip.
Best thai food in new haven area! Quiet spot with delicious food and fair pricing. Their sweet and sour chicken and siam orchid fried rice got my wife through 9 months of a brutal pregnancy. That's why we named our son 'Orchid' (no not really)
Myself and several friends have been going here often to eat/drink for 3 years. One night I picked up a Thai iced coffee and drunken noodles at Siam Orchids. (With a side of peanut sauce) I dropped my wallet while getting back into my car. They called my cell immediately. Every dollar was there. $164. Very good, respectable people. Nevermind their unforgettable Thai cuisine. Their Thai ice coffee (or tea) with boba could run Starbucks out of business... if people ever find out how great they are! Also, best bubble tea and Thai food in the state. Don't forget to tip (;
One time I went and it was delicious, another time it was not good at all. I give it one more shot.
Love this place. Great food. Nice atmosphere.
One of the best Thai restaurant along the shoreline! Staff is always friendly and welcoming. Food is amazing with fresh ingredients and quality! Price is reasonable like any other Thai restaurants. Lunch specials are what brings me back!
This place is better than 4 stars, but I rarely give 5. Food is very tasty. Love their Tom Yum broth. Very good curries. The lunch special is an amazing deal with multiple courses and enough food for 2 meals.
So good 😊
Wonderful thai food. Try wonton soup for best and freshest soup ever!
Very good, there could have been more vegetables in my dish. Overall flavor was excellent. Waiter was very patient in helping pick out just the right dish.
Nice ambiance and location. Food was good, if unspectacular. Asked for spicy, and got something that would probably rate as 1/10 on the spiciness scale, hence only 3 stars.
Really good drunken fried rice with seafood.
They brought out hot tea while I waited for my takeout because it was cold out. Food was wrapped with care. Tasted excellent!
Very good fried rice with seafood mix. Spicy but very good!
Omg amazing food!
Great shrimp pad tai
First time for everything and we r glad we experienced it here! Excellent staff, great food and terrific prices!
Really amazing Thai food. Better than places I've been to in both Boston and Chicago.
Awesome drunk noodles!
Love this place, everything made fresh as you wait * not too long. Fantastic people & food. Top of my list!
Excellent thai food. The seafood salad is perfect! Wild boar is very good, enough to share.
The drunken noodles are amazing. And so are the fried wontons! 👌
Good Thai cooking at a reasonable price.
Good food good value. Eat the drunken noodles
Really great food. Incredible staff who really go above and beyond to make your experience pleasant.
Absolutey DELISH🌸💜🌸
Good food, great service. One of our favorite restaurants.
Drunken noodles were good - not too spicy, not to oily. Would recommend.
The food is FANTASTIC. My favorite are the drunken noodles. The thai iced tea delicious. I have had pretty much everything on their menu right down to the sticky rice with mango....it reminds me of the sticky rice from the floating market in Thailand. The choo chee duck is is done just right, however you have to eat it at the restaurant.
Second time I've been here and I absolutely love it, definitely have to come more often
Just the best and super great outstanding services ...very reasonable for authentic grade A quality foods ...👍👍👍
This place is good with a reasonable price and good quality food. Have first good experience in my first visit.
Reason to give 4* is that an older lady who took the order wasn't seems to be professional.
Love the food, fresh crisp spicy.
Called at 930pm to place an order for food for the fam. They close at 1030pm ...their answer to my order was they closed their kitchen early because they are not busy...i guess 5 orders that would have been well over 100 dollars is not worth staying open their normal hours ... Will never order or recommend again
Just called to order one dinner. With 1 hour left of their business hours being OPEN they closed kitchen down because they were slow. Maybe they should stay closed
I always get a great meal here! Fast service and reasonable prices. Best satay around!
