“Ricky Thai in North Miami is hands down the best Thai restaurant in all of Florida! The food is absolutely phenomenal, bursting with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Thailand. Every dish is perfectly balanced with fresh ingredients and rich spices, from their incredible Pad Thai to the flavorful curries.

But what really sets Ricky Thai apart is the exceptional service. The staff is always warm, attentive, and quick to ensure that every customer has a fantastic dining experience. They go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and their attention to detail is unmatched.

If you’re looking for the best Thai food in Florida with outstanding service, Ricky Thai is the place to go. A true gem!”

Good people, good food !

Diner Review №3

Legit Thai food. For me, papaya salad and Larb are good indicators. They were both awesome. The kicker was SINGHA on draft. Very well done.

Diner Review №4

We have loved this place for over a decade! The food is consistently delicious (and the portions are big; our go-to order: veggie spring rolls, papaya salad, pineapple fried rice, basil stir fry, thai donuts), the service is friendly and attentive, the owner is welcoming, and the renovated space is lovely - fun colors and a great atmosphere. We are lucky it’s in our neighborhood, but it’s the type of place we’d go out of our way for - nothing fancy, just a reliably great meal.

Diner Review №5

The best pat Thai chicken I ever had. My girlfriend always wants to come here, always. The staff is amazing! And they make it a great experience every time. Don’t hesitate, take your date.

Diner Review №6

Food was delicious.

Diner Review №7

My, oh, my!!! I’m so grateful that I was able to stop by as a first time customer! Let me tell you something: The Chicken Fried Rice was AHHHH-MAZING! The jasmine rice was so moist….omg!!! The chicken was tender! The veggies were “vegging-ing”.🤣 This will be my go-to location for Thai food anytime I’m in town! Come through, Ricky, come through!!!!

Diner Review №8

We started with the House Salad with peanut dressing and we both liked it; the peanut dressing was creamy, spicy, sweet and flavorful and the veggies were fresh. I got the Tom Kha with Tofu and the Pad See Ew. The Tom Kha had an aggressive, sour, somewhat spicy flavor cut with the creaminess of coconut milk, which was overall very pleasant. The Pad See Ew was barely spicy, and had a pleasant, milky sweetness to it. She got the red curry. It was pleasantly creamy with slightly assertive spice, and the chicken was tender. Overall, we had a pleasant dining experience at Ricky Thai bistro, and would return. If there were any complaints, the parking was a bit difficult to find.

Diner Review №9

Amazing food. Mauricio gave us a ton of good recommendations.

Diner Review №10

Excellent quality and options. Cozy environment. Great Value. Consistently good. One of my favorite places. Best Thai in the area. Lucky to have them locally! Definitely recommend. Doesn’t disappoint. No matter the dish, happy customer for many years.

Diner Review №12

Authentic Thai cooking doesn’t get any better than this. Enough said.

Diner Review №13

I thought that I had eaten good Thai food in the past until I ate at Ricky's Thai Bistro,
Revised
Went again and I am severely disappointed. Our party of 5 was served 2 diners then 4 minutes later 2 more in our party were served 5 minutes later our pregnant dinner companion was served. Smh. And her dinner was not even close to what she had ordered. The stir fried Rice was mushy resembling rice pudding with chunks of chicken in it. One of our party requested shrimp added, and she did get ONE shrimp added to her dish. In all our party of 5 spend 200.00 for the meal. I seriously doubt that any of us will ever be back, after all Miami has alot of great cuisine time to find a new favorite Thai restaurant.

Diner Review №14

This is great Americanized Thai food. Good value for money. Service was great too!

Diner Review №15

Little jewel in North Miami.
First time eating here, won't be there last one!
Friendly staff and family atmosphere.
Fantastic homemade food. A new favorite!

Diner Review №16

Fresh local food made to order. One of my weekly favorites. The cashew nut chicken is my go to.

Diner Review №17

Amazing experience and food 🌸💃

Diner Review №18

I stopped here to pick up a quick bite to go based on the great reviews they had. I ordered the papaya salad and the red curry soup. Delish. I will be returning to dine in.

Diner Review №19

My husband and I visited here earlier this week for a date night. We had the pleasure of having Ben as our waiter. He had a top notch level of service! And our food was great— we had the green curry fried rice. Ludo, a team member at the front of the restaurant also was super hospitable and kind! We will definitely be back!

Diner Review №20

Incredible Thai food and great wine! Service was amazing.

Diner Review №21

Ricky Thai Bistro is by far my favorite Thai restaurant in miami. I was first made aware of them on “check please south Florida” years ago. Some of my frequently ordered dishes are larp, fried riblets, pad prik king, pad woon sen and all of the curries (massaman is favorite, but had them all). The portions are generous and the ingredients authentic. I have been fortunate enough to go to Thailand twice and this is the closest I have come to the real deal in miami. I have been coming here for about 7+ years now always getting great service and food.

Diner Review №22

It used to serve excellent Thai food. The quality and taste are not the same as they used to be, although the ambiance remains cozy. However, the service has always been highly disorganized.

Diner Review №23

Diner Review №24

Staff is very nice! Tom kha Kai and pad se ew was delicious.
Red curry was watery and not very flavorful. Also tried the chicken wings and they were ok.

Diner Review №25

Food was terrible, worst Thai food I ever hard. I prefer Thai food over Chinese food most times for the quality. I only get shrimp fried rice. Greasy. They gave 5 shrimps for $22 Small portion. Also no parking. I had to drive and walk all the way around. I ordered before I got there. If I didn’t I would have canceled the order before I got there. Please save the money and the hassle.

When I walked in everyone was really nice but honestly really upset with the quality of food.

Diner Review №26

Amazing !

We've been coming here for years and happy to finally try it now that the remodel has been completed. Happy to see the quality is still there!

Diner Review №27

Diner Review №28

What can I say, STILL one of my favorite places in the area. Always an amazing atmosphere now this place has gone through a major upgrade in the dinner area, food, attention and overall ambience always on point. Very welcoming staff and delicious food!! So happy to be back after a long time!
Larp with a side of sticky rice and pad thai are my choices tonight. And a cold Singha.

Bon appetit to me!!

First time here and I’m already in love of this place 😍 the food was amazingggggg, definitely im coming back, Mr Sake was nice and kind!! Thank youuuu

Diner Review №32

Came first when they open. 4:05pm, got soup at 4:35 and main 4:55. Pad Thai is WAY too sweet, felt like they dropped a sugar bin there by accident. Drunken noodles arrived about 15 min after my wife got her main, noodles were not cooked, just boiled sticked together, not charred in wok like it’s supposed to. Was uneatable and barely touched. They did not care about it, too bad. Their Tom kha is pretty good. Didn’t leave me anything to even come back and give it another shot

Diner Review №33

Amazing good and service , highly recommend!

Diner Review №34

Great food and friendly staff!
I’ll definitely come back

Diner Review №35

Food is incredible!

Diner Review №36

April ‘24 update: THEY HAVE RE-OPENED FOR DINE-IN! Amen to that!

Absolutely the best Thai restaurant in Miami. I am frequent flyer at Ricky’s for the last 5 years and their quality and taste are always impressive. Amazing Papaya salad, you will get addicted to the sauce. All Noodle dishes are full of flavors to be discovered, the Duck is a dream come true, try it with the pineapple rice for a perfect pairing. Thai Donuts to top it all off with a sweet ending. The owner is always onsite, which is truly what makes it all work flawlessly. Takeout is a good choice.

Diner Review №37

Had a nice curry dish with satay chicken skewers.

Diner Review №38

Diner Review №39

This is my favorite Thai in town It’s fresh, not greasy, simple with fantastic flavors. All plates are fantastic, can’t even say I have a favorite cause I love them all. Also great for vegans! This is my kitchen outside my home!

Diner Review №40

Amazing!!! I was honestly left speechless of how delicious the food is!! We had chicken wings, springs rolls, satay chicken, chicken pad thai, duck with green curry, thai fried rice and I LOVED LOVED it all!!! This is now my favorite Thai restaurant 🤩

Diner Review №41

I ordered larb and green curry. both were in thai hot. it's spicy but not as much as thai hot, in my opinion. my friend's massaman curry was better taste than my order. the flavor was generally okay, but I wish the flavor could be more prominent.

Diner Review №42

Diner Review №43

All I can say is WOW!!!! Being from NY, I always dream about good Thai food in Miami and this place hits the mark on every spot.

MUST TRY!!! Also, get the Pad See Ew- it is unreal.

Diner Review №44

Diner Review №45

Been coming here for years! This family owned restaurant boasts of authenticity all around, while Juliano & his wife insist on being sticklers to Thai flavors and recipes. A North Miami Neighborhood gem. This time we had our favorite Whole fish with Thai hot sauce. The generous sauce also served on the side with aromatic rice is a meal for the gods. The squid appetizer is spicy, unique and so satisfying. Servers and Juliano are so attentive and pleasant. They even remember your name, what your favorite dishes are and the smiles are endless while they run around trying to accommodate the long waits of this tiny restaurant! Love I, love them… just all around love! Bravo guys!!! And thank you for feeding us

Diner Review №46

Best Thai food in Miami

Diner Review №47

best thai i’ve had in a while. closest to thai traditional

Diner Review №48

It does not get any better than Ricky’s Thai Bistro! Fresh, Delicious and Authentic Thai food. My go to Neighborhood Gem.. and I go often!

Diner Review №49

Let me preface this review by saying that Thai food isn’t always my first choice but Ricky’s is definitely a place i will revisit!
I’ve NEVER had a satay this good! The papaya salad was cut fine and delicious. The green curry with the kefir lime was phenomenal!!The singa beer nice and chilled! I’d say, just the pad thai could have used a little less sugar. We wrapped up our meal with a plate of the little unsweetened donuts with condensed milk on the side, perfect! Fabulous place and packed on a Tuesday evening!

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

The food is unparalleled and the people are lovely. Just a tad loud but mainly because customers are happy to be there (no obnoxious music). I highly recommend it.

Diner Review №52

Great service, Great food and Great ownership. Already planning a visit back to try more dishes.

Diner Review №53

Ricky's went out of their way to make sure my visit was a good one. The food was excellent! I got the pad thai and the shrimp we're big and scrumptious. The manager/owner (guy in his later 50's?) really tried to make sure my food was in my hands pronto. My only problem here is the parking.

Diner Review №54

Excellent Thai food!!!

A must visit if in the area.

I ordered the Tom Kha Goong soup. LARGE shrimp in this big bowl of soup along with fresh mushrooms. Yummy!

I also had the Pad Kee Mow or Drunken Noodles with beef.. Also very good with an excellent selection of very fresh vegetables and the perfect compliment of Basil.

A must visit when in the N. Miami area.

Diner Review №55

I get take out from here once a week.
Best Sticky rice I've ever had.
Just very authentic Thai flavors.

Diner Review №56

Will Reopen august 29 - per their Facebook!

Diner Review №57

Amazing curry, repeat customer, always great.

Diner Review №58

Addicted!
We fell in love with this restaurant since the first visit, generous portion of high quality Thay food that resemble flavors from a distant place. The owner is a great host and offers specials that surprise and satisfy every single time.
The prices are just incredibly honest and most important is consistently outstanding. We just keep going again and again.
And we are glad of it!

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

I should have confirmed my order when I placed it over the phone yesterday because instead of Pad Kee Mow, I got Paid Thai... Everything was still delicious, just a little disappointed! Make sure you ask them to repeat your order back when ordering over the phone!

Diner Review №61

Green curry fried rice was unique and exceptional in taste.

Diner Review №62

Good food, good service, fair prices, nice decor.

Diner Review №68

Diner Review №69

The food was excellent. If you want to try authentic Thai food, this is the place to go. We ordered Thai spring rolls, and they're awesome. Pad wood sen and fried rice crab, and they were very very good. Also, we finished with Thai donuts, and they were also excellent. Definitely recommend this restaurant to try it and definitely going back to try more of their food.

Diner Review №70

One of my favorite places the food is amazing the service perfect 👌 enjoy the experience 😋

Diner Review №71

This is the Best Thai Restaurant in town. It is a family restaurant but with high end kitchen. The food is always perfect and also the price point. FORZA RICKY!!!!

Diner Review №72

Diner Review №73

We are so happy that Ricky Thai has reopened! The place looks incredible and the atmosphere to eat there is just so cool. We have been eating here and ordering take out for many years and we just love their food and service! Our favorites are the pineapple rice, the pad thai and the cashew stir fry. Congratulations (and thank you!) Giuliano and Majcha for opening again and serving such amazing food!

Diner Review №74

Just can’t say enough good things about Ricky’s. Good is just awesome, fresh, piping hot, flavorful. Best Pad Thai I have had in years and years, esp with tofu. Red curry yummy, spicy and loved every minute of it. Thai rice moist and just the right amount of moisture and clumpiness. Thai chili whole fish, yikes, snapper the night I went, and just pick it right off with some lettuce and the Lap tomato sauce dip was crazy! Chill place, great owners, friendly staff and a great and inexpensive wine list. Yeah, worth a drive from wherever you are.

Diner Review №75

Amazing food and owners!

Diner Review №76

Diner Review №77

Amazing food and even better service! Congratulations to Giuliano and family to their reopening!

Diner Review №78

So glad Ricky Thai’s back!! Had a wonderful dinner… Thai spring roll, Ricky Thai Wings, Green Papaya Salad, Thai Fried Rice, Penang Curry, and the Duck Basil - all deliciously executed, and well paired with a nice Italian white. We finished with some Thai donuts and an espresso. Next level, and well priced in comparison to most Miami restaurants these days. Go, you’ll love! 💕 Sorry, we only photographed the first two dishes 😂

Diner Review №79

Delicious! And affordable 👍

Diner Review №82

Very knowledgeable staff that knew exactly what could be made gluten-free and vegan.

Diner Review №83

Chicken satay and papaya salad were great. Main dishes lacked more protein in them, more chicken in cash nut rice and curries would make it better.

Dessert of doughnuts was disappointing

Diner Review №84

Really love this place! Food is amazing, prices are fair, service is super good! Highly recommend!

Diner Review №89

Excellent on all fronts. Some of the best Thai you can get in Miami with great service and authentic atmosphere

Diner Review №90

I've been a patron of Ricky's for a while now. Today, I returned after a long absence due to their renovation. The changes are amazing; the restaurant now feels so open and bright. The food and service were beyond impressive—I had the Drunken Noodle with pork, and it was outstanding. In terms of quality and flavor, it's to my opinion the best in Miami; you'd have to go to NY or Thailand to find something comparable. I highly recommend this place!

Diner Review №91

I've been eagerly awaiting the reopening of this place since their expansion. It did not disappoint. Although they are currently open for dine in and take out, please be aware that there is some expansion work in progress. That being said, it doesn't affect, in any way, the quality of food or service. And the walk up/pick up window is genius.
The food is so fresh,The chef is Thai and everything is made to order. I've spent a lot of time in Thailand, and this place does Thailand proud; and if you tell them you want it traditionally prepared, be prepared for it! Deliciousness! Run to this place, or at least, call in and Walk up, LoL. The wait was definitely worth it

Diner Review №92

Authentic Thai flavors served with a smile. A must-try for any Thai food enthusiast!

Diner Review №93

delicious thai food and a upbeat atmosphere with very friendly servers

Diner Review №94

What an incredible place we are so fortunate to have in our own little north Miami neighborhood. Food is always impeccable, no other Thai restaurant can compete in Miami and beyond. The new expansion is excellent. Modernized while maintaining an intimate local feel. And now they have a take out window! You may (probably will) need to wait, possibly for a while, to get seated do to its popularity but it's absolutely worth any wait

Diner Review №95

Get the best Thai food and the most bang for your buck!

Diner Review №96

We have been coming to this restaurant for years, and the food is of excellent quality 👌
The owner always presents to greet you and assist you with any questions you may have.
This place is so friendly and very clean.

Diner Review №107

I am so glad they are back open. The best Thai food in Miami. My favorites are, papaya salad, pad thai, pad see ew, crispy duck with basil sauce. Besides the food this family run business offers excellent service and quality that you can trust will deliver every time you visit.

Diner Review №108

We live down the road and ordered take out 1/2 a month. When they closed we were worried about how they would make a comeback.

Wow, they did not disappoint! Every single thing was delicious!

The place looks very clean and updated inside, the take out window is very smart and I hope they use it to their advantage. 👍

Favorites:
- Crispy Duck Red Curry
- Basel Fried Rice
- Satay Chicken Skewers
- Thai Donuts

You really can't go wrong here.

This has to be the best day of this year so far. Ricky Thai is open again!!! They’re only open for takeout right now, but the food is as delicious as ever. Best Thai is south Florida hands down! Please go and support a great local family business 🙏🏻

Diner Review №111

Rickys is finally open for Takeout Only! Best thai food i have ever had.

Diner Review №112

This is one of the best and definitely the most consistent restaurant in Miami. They produce quality dishes, and they’re one of the few who actually care about what they put on your plate.

I’m very much looking forward to their re-opening.

Diner Review №113

Food is frozen. Bad quality and seats are like in jail.

Diner Review №114

One of the best places in Miami. The service is at a level above everyone else and the food is amazing.

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

Love love love! Try the duck basil or green curry. Their customer service is amazing too. I ordered take out but changed my mind and decided to eat at a table. It was already packed so they quickly accommodated and brought my serving dishes and a beverage. Great to have a place like this in the neighborhood.

Diner Review №117

I love this restaurant, when are you opening

Diner Review №118

The best Thai food in Miami, hands down! Got a bit scared when I saw they were temporarily closed but for a good reason! I’m sure the atmosphere will be just as good as their food

Absolutely delicious Thai food, some of the best I’ve had around Miami.

Diner Review №138

This cute little Bistro is a hole-in-the-wall, cozy space, with delicious food, for such great prices. I absolutely loved the Tom kha kai soup. The service was 5-star - our server took such great care of us, I really felt at home in the restaurant. We just popped in for lunch & now this is my new favorite Thai food place in the area.

Was on vacation here last week and one of our favorite meals was at Ricky Thai. The service was very friendly and attentive, the food came out quickly, and it was some of the best Thai food I've eaten outside of Asia. Amazing Papaya salad, Thai spring rolls, and pad Thai! We finished with the mini Thai donuts served with sweetened condensed milk. All very delicious. I wish we were in town longer so we could try more items.

See you next time we're in Miami!

Diner Review №153

Best Thai Food In North Miami! Reminds me of Thai Market In New York! And that’s a HUGE compliment lol that’s my favorite Thai spot in NEW YORK. Ricky Thai bistro! Small neat spot! Banging powerful boastful Thai flavors! The wings are super crunchy and never fails me! Rice is plush and plentiful! TREAT YO SELF!!! 🔥 Poetic Approved 💯

Diner Review №154

Diner Review №155

You may have to wait a short while for a table. It's a small establishment but the menu is full of flavor. They have curry soups, wings, pad Thai, duck, and other classic Thai dishes. They also carry wine, beers like Sapporo and some canned sodas and juices. I've been here twice and really enjoy their spring rolls and pad Thai.

10/10. Love the Thai chicken fried rice! Wait was long but it’s so worth it and you have enough to save for the next day!

Diner Review №161

Delicious curry

Diner Review №162

It’s a perfect little hole in the wall that has aspirations because they’re expanding. I’m a little worried that when they expand, they will lose that comfort, food environment and the very sweet waitress. They won’t have time to sit and chat over red curry vs green.
They have an amazing selection, and they’re very kind and accommodating and plenty of food for very good prices. The Decour is charming, but nonetheless sort of like a hidden gem of a place. Opens at 4 o’clock. Come in through the back and don’t forget to get your pad Thai on .

Diner Review №163

Diner Review №164

Delicious food, and JENNY MAKES THE VISIT ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! She’s a gem!! Superb service that makes you feel right at home!!! Thanks Jenny!!

Diner Review №165

I used to love this place . The service is alwways amazing until the last time I came . My kids doesn't really like much vegetables. They love the pad sew and I asked the server to put less vegetables but with extra noodles and I don't mind paying for it. But the owner Ricky said no . And he did this before . If you want your guests to keep coming back as long as it is a reasonable request . You should honor it . At the end of the day guest come back when they are happy and satisfied .

Diner Review №166

Best customer service I’ve received in a VERY long time. Very friendly and attentive. Jenny was amazing!!

Diner Review №167

Wow this place is delicious and the customer service is amazing. Our server was so sweet and went above and beyond for us. Definitely my new favorite spot!

Amazing food and amazing people!

Diner Review №170

Such a wonderful place! The food is delicious, very authentic and the service is impeccable, they show so much love for what they do. Best Thai restaurant in North Miami. We tried the duck basil and the kao niao moo tod, absolutely delicious! Sad that I don’t live here, I would go all the time! Thank you Ricky Thai Bistro!

Diner Review №172

Diner Review №173

This is an excellent restaurant, as authentic Thai as can be. Everything is fresh, they make any dish to order to your liking. We'll come back here again as a regular, they can adjust the spice level to your liking. Must visit!

Diner Review №174

Fresh made everything, fast & friendly service. This is definitely a hidden gem. So glad I found them. My server Yindra was amazing and knowledgeable! Will be back soon

Diner Review №175

My boyfriend ordered the pad Thai. He really liked it I got the seafood basil and it was delicious. Very fresh seafood, and vegetables new to North Miami was a great time restaurant.

Diner Review №176

Best Pad Thai and Pineapple Fried Rice I’ve had in the area!!

Diner Review №177

Whether take out or eat in, always spectacular. Note medium is hot for most Americans and hot is HOT, and unless you are Thai stay away from Thai Hot!

Diner Review №178

Absolutely delicious and fresh Thai food! Tastes and feels like I’m in someone’s house and they made it just for me! Highly recommend

Diner Review №179

Wow! My friend suggested I come here because I was in the area and I'm so happy I did!

It's a super lowkey spot but the food is amazing. The service we had was also so so good. She was incredibly sweet and made conversation with us and suggested good dishes. Here's what we ordered:

- KAO NIAO MOO TOD: you must order this! It's Papaya salad with sticky rice and pork strips. These pork strips were my favorite part of the whole meal! Ask for the papaya salad a little spicy. We forgot to do that and wished we did
- Pad See Ew was really good too! Can't go wrong with this and they have a great one
- Crab Fried Rice; not my favorite crab fried rice EVER but it was really good.

I'm sad I hadn't heard of this place before but I'm glad I found it now and can't wait to go back!

Diner Review №180

Great food. Delicious, good size! 100% recommended!!

Diner Review №181

i thoroughly enjoyed this thai spot, yummy food and wonderful service from Jenny.

I have to be honest i have high expectations for thai food, i lived in thailand and have eating thai food all around the world, this place ranks high. I’m happy to have found it. They open at 5pm.

Diner Review №190

This was a weird one. We showed up and it looked like a run down building, front door is blocked off but my first thought was, the good must be really good if they are still staying open.

My first sense to trigger when I walked in was my nose. The use of fish sauce was obvious, and that got me excited; I knew I was going to get some flavorful foods. The pad thai, salad, egg rolls aesthetically was fantastic. The taste was bold, with some heat but a little too sweet, presumably to try to cut the spiciness. It was a balance of authentic and American Thai food.

Love this little gem. Authentic Thai food at a great price. Food always delicious and fresh. Service good. They could give more rice with takeout.
