Worst thai I’ve ever had!! Take the trip to Thai Spice over in Hamden, knocks this dogfood out of the water. Not to mention violently overpriced. $41 for two orders of chicken drunken noodles and two Thai iced teas?

The food is delicious! We had the roasted duck and the pad see ew. Amazing! Wish the music was a bit more energizing. At the time we were there, they were playing what sounded like classical/spa music.

Diner Review №14

Great restaurant. The owners Kamol and Maam are such kind sweet people. Food is excellent too. I usually go for the drunken noodles here.

Diner Review №15

Diner Review №22

Small but nice atmosphere. We've been coming here for years and I've never been disappointed, apps or entrees. Someone complained about pricing but it hasn't changed much despite our current, record inflation.

Thon Bu Ree is amazing if you like sweet and spicy, pirate treasure is always wonderful, we love all the different curries.

Diner Review №23

Chicken drunken noodles were magical. Also enjoyed Thai iced coffee and slaw salad appetizer.

Diner Review №24

This is the cutest little Thai restaurant! I lived in Thailand myself for a few years & found the food at this restaurant to be very authentic. Great service & very nicely decorated with Thai decor. 100% recommended!

Diner Review №25

Delicious food, wonderful people.

Diner Review №26

How can you not love this place? The food is soooo good.

Diner Review №27

This was my first and last time here. The food was ok but the portions were a absolute joke for the money. There are so many more places that give you better value for your money. Really scratching my head on how this place is still in business.

Diner Review №28

My favorite Thai in Bridgeport

Diner Review №29

Pad Thai was not fresh

Diner Review №30

The tom yum soup and the red curry were the best I've ever had. Great value for the lunch special. I haven't been here in a while and I forgot how good it is, will definitely be coming back more often.

Diner Review №36

Always get the drunken noodles, always excellent(a little pricey but worth it)…I think an older couple runs it…so be patient with them

Diner Review №37

I've eaten a few Thai restaurants and I must say.. unfortunately King & I did not rate as well. Pad Thai was not fresh at all. Noodles were not completely covered in Thai sauce. Maybe just not a good day!

Diner Review №38

We've lived in Stratford for nine years and never knew this restaurant existed. It's terrific. Nice decor, lovely service, delicious meal. We went with friends who have lived here longer than we have, who are "regulars," something we will become. Excellent Thai food, many choices.

Best Thai in all of fairfield county and the surrounding area. Everything and I mean everything is made fresh by the chef who is native to Thai Land. The wife is the chef and the husband runs the front of the house.

Dumplings, massaman curry with shrimp, drunken noodles, pad preow whan are just a few other the incredible options. This is a must try!!

Diner Review №79

Great place. My gf and i are vegan and they had options for us.

Diner Review №80

I ordered the fried wontons as my appetizer and chicken pad rama for my entrée. Both were amazing, especially the pad rama which was bursting with flavor and the right amount of heat. Based on the taste, I recommend this restaurant highly. So yummy. I'll be back. I'd give it 5 stars, but the restaurant itself lacks ambiance. If you are looking for a place to dress up for a date, this is not it.

Diner Review №81

This place has always been a favorite of ours. Food is excellent and service is impeccable!!!

Diner Review №82

I’ve been coming here since the late 80s and 90s- It’s the best Thai food around, hands down. I wish they were closer to us now because I would go there multiple times a week! Love the owners and their Kai Mau muang, Fried wontons and extra peanut sauce! You have to go there!!!!

Excellent authentic mmm mmm good

Diner Review №102

Favorite Thai restaurant. All dishes are made when you order. The quality has always been consistent for me. Defiantly out performs many other Thai restaurants nearby and in Fairfield. Great Pad Thai, spring rolls, as well as fantastic curries. Small staff but that only makes the place feel cozy.

Lovely food

Diner Review №112

It has been a long time since i visited this place. I was glad to see that it kept it’s freshness and good flavor. It could use maybe bigger staff because it get filled quickly.

Diner Review №113

I consider myself a THAI food snob. Thai is my favorite food and these guys know how to make it and they make it well... APPETIZER....SATAY, LARB, NAM SOD. My favorite soup is TOM KHA KAI (Coconut chicken soup) they make it very, very well!!! As for dishes.. EVERYTHING IS GREAT! My favorite dishes are Pad Thai, Thon Bu Ree, Pong Pang, Duck with Basil Leaves, and Massaman Curry Chicken. Do not to try THAI TEA! It is a must have!!!! :)

Diner Review №114

Excellent

Diner Review №115

Loved the food! Everything was fresh and prepared as we waited. I highly recommend this lovely gem!

Diner Review №116

Positively phenomenal. It's a gem of a little thai restaurant that doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves. I hadn't been in in longer than it should have been, but took my girlfriend last night. I'd only taken her for thai once prior, take out from a random spot in New Haven -- and it was gross.

Fingers crossed, I had a hankering for thai and set off for old trusty. I remember it being small but very welcoming, and it was as I recalled, but the decor seems it's been updated. Everything was fresh and extremely clean, and smelled phenomenal.

I had the thai green curry (chicken), she had the pad se ew (beef), and both were absolutely delightful. One thing I did recall is that the portions were *not* gut busting, but just very reasonable. I don't find this to be a flaw. Plates shouldn't make you sick if you happen to finish them, and having left overs need not be the norm ... order an extra meal if you'd like more to go!

Anyway, I will be frequenting King and I -- It's back in my rotation. The food was on point, better so than (I remember) the Fairfield location's being (which I lived near a for a few years around 2009 [though this review is neither about nor to a knock on the Fairfield King & I]).

Anyway, don't hesitate to go. This isn't NYC, and we don't have the kind of variety here that they have (and I'm spoiled from working a few years in the city). But the food is as good as any I'd had in New York, and I cannot wait to go back. I'm still gloating thinking about last nights dinner!

Thank you very much to the kind gentleman who took care of us, as well! See you again soon.

Diner Review №117

I apologize in advance if I offend anyone, but this place is totally WACK! Can I have my $13 back? For a first timer at this place I was very disappointed. I asked if I can have noodles instead of rice and the gentleman looked me like I had 4 heads. I get it, this is not the local Chinese restaurant but come on at least the food portion should be more than a kids meal and the rubber chicken was a joke. I give it one star for the cashews that were sprinkled in the dish. I threw out my meal and went back out to Vazzy's.

Diner Review №119

We ordered a large order for lunch at work. One girl only had her credit card we asked over the phone to have her order separate. When I got there. The lady was frazeled. I guess the cooks or whomever didn't label the food so she had to repack it all and label it. She did not separate the one order from the rest so I had to pay for all of it on my card and later deposit everyone's cash and my coworker had to owe me. The food is ok the rice could be better. And it would be nice if it wasn't just one women running the tables and ordering.

Diner Review №120

Food no good the lady over there is very bad she doesn’t know how to take care of customers I suggest not to walk in ...

"Not bad." Location is convenient, but there's better Thai around. Service is good.

Diner Review №126

Great service and food!

Diner Review №127

I have been fortunate to have visited Thailand, the food is as authentic as being in Thailand. The King and I tops my list.

Diner Review №128

Diner Review №129

Bangin Thai food, I order spicy for my girl and extra spicy for myself and they actually add the extra heat unlike some places that just b.s. ya. Sick spot, Pad Thai (of course), Pad Rama, and the Taro Root are always on point here. Tamarind sauce is out of this world.

Diner Review №130

Incredible Thai food and an awesome menu. The pad Thai is so wonderful and the Thai Iced Tea is just wow. Going to keep going back to try a bunch of different things!

Diner Review №131

Diner Review №132

Lunch specials were reasonably priced and the food was very good. Atmosphere was relaxed and the server was polite and quick with requests. I specially liked the interior design of the place. Very pretty! Would go again.

Diner Review №133

I can't even believe I gave this place one star first off the little waiter / owner was a prick treated me like I was begging for something when I was coming in to pick up my $30 order told me to hold on when I was asking him for something the service is not the only problem the food was disgusting and super tiny portions like the other reviews said wish I read them before I wasted my money avoid this place at all costs the pad thai cost 1350 it was in a small container it was only half way full unbelievable now you know why they put the staple on the bag so you don't look till you get home the food was atrocious the noodles were all dry like they were left out in the air it tasted old and microwaved if I ever see that little dude again so help me God and you know what there was only three tiny thin slice little pieces of chicken in the whole little dish I would recommend going home microwaving a ramen noodle removing the broth take one chicken nugget cut it into 3 take a cheap package of hot sauce dump it in that's what 1350 taste like at this dump soooooooo mad I have to go back out and get something to eat after that snack

Diner Review №134

Got takeout of pad Thai and an order of spring rolls. It cost almost $17 and was the smallest portion of Thai food I've ever gotten. We got 2 spring rolls in our order and half of a small container of pad thai. The flavor was okay but the noodles were undercooked. Not worth the $ at all.

Diner Review №135

I've been getting takeout from them for over 16 years and it's always been good.

Diner Review №136

Diner Review №138

Very nice

Diner Review №139

I will never go back, because of the horrible, horrible service and premade food. The waiter was very rude and argued with me when he messed up my order. He told me that I was wrong and that he was right and that he wasn't going to do anything to correct his mistake. Our waiter also told me that he can't put the sauce on the side, because ALL THE FOOD AT THE RESTAURANT IS PREMADE.

Diner Review №140

One of the best thai food restaurant on town!

Diner Review №141

Simply ridiculous parody of thai food: tasteless sugary blobs of food to appeal to mcdonalds crowd.

Diner Review №142

we had much better food in stratford than the new location in faifield.

Diner Review №143

BEST THAI IN FAIRFIELD COUNTY.
