My most favorite place

Diner Review №2

I was craving for something spicy for the chilly weather, so I had Pad Cha seafood from Thai Express! Love it! I requested medium spicy, and they also included peppercorn and fingerroot, making the dish very authentic and on point! I highly recommend this menu if you want to experience a very unique Thai food.

Diner Review №3

The staff was nice and the kaprow hit the spot (tender chicken, crisp veggies, thin sauce that wasn't too heavy/thick) 😊🦃 It's a solid local go to spot for Thai food.

Diner Review №4

We stopped by to have quick lunch. This place is a hidden gem for authentic this food. We ordered Beef Massaman curry, Pad Cha seafood and Chicken zap. I can feel Thai flavor ❤️ I'm Thai so I definitely recommend this place.

Restaurant is clean and friendly staff.

Food taste is delicious. Good Service 🙏🏻😊 I recommend this restaurant for authentic Thai food. 🍲 อาหารรสชาติอร่อยมากค่ะ ไว้มาอุดหนุนใหม่นะคะ 💕🍁

Diner Review №6

Tried this spot twice. First time? Meh, it wasn’t great, I said never again. Second time, though... Let's just say I had an out-of-body experience. You know it's bad when you wake up in a deep sleep just to... well, let's say my bathroom and I are closer now. 😬 Should’ve trusted my instincts when I opened the bag and thought, ‘Why am I doing this to myself?’ Lesson learned: never ignore your gut... especially when it’s literally telling you not to! They gotta switch everything up.

Usually get their drunken noodles and pad see ew which are always great! The suicide noodles are also good.

Diner Review №10

A fine establishment, food has always been consistent. I love their drunken noodles, pineapple fried rice, and chicken satay skewers. Good place that I've liked for the past 7-8 years I've been going

Diner Review №23

The absolute tastiest Thai takeout. They have tables for dining in and their service is super friendly, but we almost always order out. There are a couple of other good Thai places nearby, but Thai Express is our hands down favorite.

Diner Review №24

One of favorite go to restaurants. If you're looking for a hole in the wall type of restaurant with good flavor then this is a place I recommend. The Red Penang is one of my favorite dishes.

Diner Review №25

Literally the most delicious thai food I've had in MoCo. The drunken lo mein is something I dream of

Diner Review №26

Diner Review №27

Good food. Carried out and food was ready when promised. A bit pricey for what you get.

Diner Review №28

Well prepared good quality food. We had their lunch special and everything was great. I highly recommend the spring rolls. Food is always good here. Busy restaurant does a lot of business

Diner Review №29

Diner Review №30

Decent Thai food. A place well located in Kentlands for anyone who wants a quick bite. Most of their business is TO GO. Very limited dining in capacity. The food portion size is good. The taste is a little bit on the bland side, but can be amended by adding the spices they provide on the table. Overall good quality is very good. The items have average price range. Would recommend this place for a take out.

Diner Review №31

Very good Thai food, especially the rice dishes. Whether called in for pickup or ordered in the restaurant, the order is processed quickly, and if you are picking up, it's usually ready when you get there.

Not a place to linger while eating. Average setting, kind of like a fast food restaurant. There are two tables outside on the sidewalk.

Plenty of free parking, lot easy to get into and out of.

Ordered drunken noodles with shrimp. They gave me chicken and still charged me the extra money. Noodles smacked but just tell the truth I would've gave you the $2 as a tip and now I'll just go to Tara Thai

There was hair in my chicken pad ze ew and chicken pad Thai. I wonder if the cooks wear a hair net because that is pretty disgusting. I will never come back here. I was sickened by my discovery. That’s pretty unprofessional.

Best food ever

Diner Review №43

Used to be amazing, quality and authentic Thai style food here. Now it taste like Chinese fast food quality. Pics are Suicide Noodles and Nua Nom Tok (Beef Salad). Beef had no taste and thinly sliced. Used to be grilled and charbroiled with authentic fish sauce. I had to add siracha for added taste. Suicide noodles used to have amazing spices but now taste like Lo Mein at best.

Diner Review №44

My go to takeout food! Highly recommend the Pad See Ew with a little added spice. The Thai Iced tea is made perfectly!

Diner Review №45

2 stars because the fresh veggie rolls were good. i'm afraid to keep eating the shrimp pad thai cuz i'm sure my stomach will hurt by the morning. no way this is fresh. probably my own fault for ordering around 8:00pm. egg, shrimp and noodles don't seem fresh at all. and the fried shrimp rolls were ice cold.

Diner Review №46

Very tasty Thai food for affordable price. Quick service. $15 per person for a full meal with soup.

Diner Review №47

Nice little neighborhood spot, no pretense, good for a quick, casual meal.

I didn't enjoy this restaurant at all, I couldn't finish the soup, they had loud music.

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

Staff members are nice but the food is way too sweet! Why do they feel the need to put so much sugar in their food? Most health conscience people will eventual stop ordering from this restaurant because they put too much sugar in their cook.

Diner Review №52

Poor service! We came there first before the other customer arrived (a set of family) after they serve our appetizer nothing follows. They keep on serving the other customer while we are still waiting for our main dish. Seeing the other customer ate and leaving the place and yet we are still waiting is very disappointing. We lost our appetite, so we decided to take out our food.

Diner Review №53

Great Thai food and people are always nice and attentive. The best Thai food in the area.

Diner Review №54

Ordered Pad Thai with chicken as protein. Requested spicy. Food has decent to great spicy levels.

Noodles quantity is fine. But, chicken quantity is less.

Overal, decent food place. Worth the price.

Should have better air heaters for winters.

Diner Review №55

Suicide noodles are so good! Very friendly people

Diner Review №56

We stumbled upon this restaurant randomly after a boring uneventful Panera coffee stop, but were glad we found this hidden gem. Not trying to sound pompous but having been to the land of smiles many times (pre covid) and yearning to get back one day soon, this restaurant really brought a taste of Thailand to this neck of woods. I ordered a green curry dish and wife went with Pad Thai and we shared a papaya salad. Everything was on point including spice level and flavor profile. The only thing missing is the sound of motor bikes, ridiculous humidity and exotic street smells. We’ll be back here for lunch again soon.

Diner Review №57

Food and Services was Good..

Diner Review №58

Didn't like the soy puffs in the pad thai instead of fried tofu. Don't know if this is how they always make it.

Diner Review №59

The food was absolutely amazing. I rarely write reviews this is only my second one, but I had to. The shrimp and chicken fried rice was so good, very authentic. The green curry was perfect. The golden tilapia my god, it was the best fish I’ve ever had. Service was great, inside is very nice and clean. I’m coming back next week.

Diner Review №60

There Tom Yum soup is delicious….

Diner Review №61

The best papaya salad so far! Love their Tom yum and chicken satay. Such a hidden gem in Kentland area.

Diner Review №62

Super chill humble take out thai food. Lots of tasty little bites

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №64

Enjoyed the green curry. Wasn't super watery like places I've been in the past. I do strongly advise being honest with what spice level you can handle and then possibly consider going a step down. Next time I'll order something to calm the heat down a bit more.

Diner Review №65

Diner Review №66

I got a shrimp curry it was only three shrimp and the shell was still on there not only the size is way too small I feel like I got scammed honestly.

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №68

Best Thai food I have ever had. I will definitely be coming back again. The staff was very friendly and attentive to our needs and gave wonderful recommendations. If you aren’t sure, just try it!

Diner Review №69

Diner Review №70

I liked it. It was ok. The skewers meat texture was like flakey which was Odd. But the sauce on the side was good. The noodles was the party favorite dish we did not have any left. Food pick up time was done on time. Friendly staffing. Total was a little over 200. (Fries were not part of this order) I would change out the fried rice for something else next time.

Diner Review №71

If I could give 0 stars I would. Today I placed an order at the restaurant, I specified I wanted to dine in and a lady spoke in Thai and then said “why dine in no eat here” needless to say I said I would like to order it to go. Horrible customer service. Please don’t ever go here!! Mid food and you get treated like you’re a bother for them.

Diner Review №72

Diner Review №73

Tiny restaurant, sits around 20 people. Lots of people who ordered take out. Lunch specials starting around $11. I tried the Massamun Curry with chicken and it was fantastic. You get a ton of tender chicken. Next time I probably will ask if I can get 1/2 chicken, 1/2 vegetables. The miso soup was light and perfect for the cold rainy day.

Diner Review №78

I have been going to Thai Express in Kentlands since 2015, never had ANY issues, until today, when they not only got my order wrong, they changed their policy to charge customers for the spice ( Which is free if you dine-in ) explanation was: the container is so expensive that we have to charge the customers 75c for each spice. OS even though i paid for the spice, not all spices were there. The quality and the taste of food was also, so bad that my family ended up eating at Sabai Sabai Simply Thai. Same price but great service and very tasteful food. I am really sad to see Thai Express deteriorating, but like all good things come to an end. i am moving my business elsewhere. For a family of 4 the bill always was around $80 which is ok, but at least I deserve a little smile and service. It seems the people working at Thai Express are not the excellent people i got used to over the years. Sad Sad Sad....

We
We've been customers of Thai Express for the past 6 years or so. We really loved the food and ordered often, but had noticed a noticable shift towards a decrease in the quantity a few years ago (pre-pandemic). We still order take out but less frequently. My husband swears by their egglant dishes, they are so good. The staff have always been very pleasant and we still given them our business.

Diner Review №88

Diner Review №89

Rude staff. Ordered food here for lunch. They were open for dining in. They placed my order for carry out without asking me. I asked for a plate and they would not give me a plate for eating in the restaurant. He said I ordered carry out and I told him I had not done so and even had left them a tip in the credit card. Last time I come to this place. Food is ok but much better Thai places in the area. Asking for a plate when they clearly made a mistake on the order is not much to ask.

Diner Review №90

Thai foodie posting here,
Tried drunken noodles 3/5
Thai fried rice 2/5
Basil rice 2/5
Small portion sizes, does not have the flavors thats authentic.

Diner Review №91

This place is pretty good. I eat a lot of Thai food and love Thai food and I enjoyed my meal from here, but the quality is noticeably lower than other Thai restaurants. I tried this restaurant for the first time because I always see them online and their prices are lower than other places. But the quality is slightly worse too, in my opinion. Other Thai places are better in terms of quality of meat and materials used in the dish, and also flavor. But this place definitely has best value/prices and portion.

Diner Review №100

They should have posted updated lunch price here. Actually, they no longer have ‘lunch price’ as so called lunch price is the same as other all day long menu price. And.. wait! How come you wipe the table with anti-bacteria bleach?? I had to deal with disgusting and toxic smell hovering over in the air all the time while eating my food! And it is restaurant 101 that you are not supposed to use such a toxic bleach for cleaning eating table. It is definitely unhealthy! You could have just used alcohol diluted water instead. I felt like I was eating small portion of bleach little by little. Yuk!!

Diner Review №101

Drunken noodle was the best I have ever had!

Diner Review №102

I had driven past here several times and kept continuing to frequent another Thai establishment that was much further away. One day I decided to go out on a whim and try something new (thank goodness).

We ordered...

Seafood Green Curry
Seafood Healthy Ginger
Fried Tofu
Spring Rolls

Everything was really good! The seafood (shrimp and squid rings) were actually fresh and cooked to perfection. I love the green curry. The spice level and flavor is on point. I always order a side of steamed vegetables to add to my curry - and the vegetables are not overly cooked. They're fresh and still slightly crunchy.

We've ordered a few times since our first visit. And it's been consistent.

Prices are reasonable. They are smaller sized portions compared to some establishments in the area.

The service is good. They pay attention to detail and the food comes out quickly.

I keep telling myself to order something new, but I really love the curry here. Eventually, I will try something else! ;)

Diner Review №103

Though the restaurant looks very simple, food is Very Delicious. The Perfect Thai food is here. Prices are very Reasonable. Space is limited though, so good for a small gathering and best for Takeout. We love this place and take our friends & families there quite often. Why not, if we can get a great meal at a great price at the heart of Kentlands, easily accessible from Rockville, Gaithersburg, Germantown, Boyds, etc.

As of May 21 still take out or delivery only. Would have loved to see outdoor ordering but understand some businesses are slower to expand offerings. Will go again but confirm outdoor dining is available.

Diner Review №110

This is one of the best restaurant in town.

Diner Review №111

Standard, decent fare, in a good location.

Diner Review №112

Taro custard and sweet sticky rice dessert was amazing! Great local restaurant run by a sweet family.

Service was great, they called personally to let me know they couldn't accommodate a request, which was no problem.

Curry and Tom yum was top notch. Note that "mild" still leaves a bit of a slow burn for those not accustomed to spicy food. The curry also came with rice, though it did not explicitly say so where I ordered.

SO said his "spicy" wasn't that spicy, but enjoyed his coconut curry soup.

Would visit again.

Diner Review №113

THEY OVER CHARGED ME AND WOULD NOT GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK! My total was 12.71 and they charged me 15.25

Diner Review №114

Best Thai food. Have been here over 20 times. Good deal especially lunch specials with salad.

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

Pad thai was meteokre but for some reason it really affected me negatively. Spring rolls ok but didn't have homeade duck sauce, gross packets.

Diner Review №117

I ordered drunken noodles with shrimp and the shrimp were still transparent and very undercooked. Other than that the padang chicken curry was on point, chicken satay was tasted excellent as well. I called about the shrimp and they were nice enough to give me a credit for if I come back again. Maybe worth giving a second chance, but undercook shrimp is a huge nono!!!

P.S. Follow me @a_head_in_food on Instagram to see some of the best food from all over and also straight out the kitchen.

Diner Review №121

I had order some food from here , the food are good but the only problem that I have and it happened twice already . The lady who work at the front who ring you up anyway I pay for my food and this lady took my changed and didn’t give me my money back regardless how much change I get back you don’t take ppl’s money and she didn’t even say one word I call that a THIEF I’m giving them business since I work right there evidently they needed that money more than I do I will not give them my business anymore

Diner Review №122

Good food, I normally get either Thai red curry, drunken noodle (wish it had peppers in it and the noodles weren't so stuck together), or the pineapple fried rice. Always good tasting but on the smaller portion size. It will fill you up, dont get me wrong but don't count on having any leftovers. Normally very quick service!

Diner Review №123

(My Current Review 12/2020)
We started getting bad experience after this old lady (new employee) mess up the food for 4x. When we are ordering food they didn't pick it up on time. Usually it takes 3-4 seconds and they will pick it up already but since we've been there since 2017 they know our numbers and every-time we call is takes 20-30 mins before they pick it up so basically we need to call 10x until someone will answer. Our food wasn't good anymore than before the drunken noodles was missing some ingredients and pad thai is not that good. This time was very bad & disappointed! And will never come back again. I really thought this is one of our memories because we kept going back in this restaurant. But this time we are Done!! Thank you & God-bless!

(My Review 11/2020)
After reviewing the restaurant for thanking them for their service. I started to have bad experience. I think i jinx it! Started on November first i ordered additional entree (suicide noodles) than normal which is Suicide Noodles you can choose either mixed seafood, shrimp & etc. (your choice of meat) and then when i got the food it’s mixed seafood i ordered shrimp I specifically say that because the lady that i always talk through phone wasn’t there so that’s the reason why.

I was disappointed about what happen and i call them to let them know what I received. (Basically i forgive them) however when i ordered suicide noodle again the next week it’s the same thing! So this time i call and returned it back to them. So we have to drive 25mins literally. We are so mad! Like what’s going on you know? I understand if they’re busy but not this 2nd time with their mistakes.

The 3rd time, it’s the same thing again! But this time the shrimp was there however they’re missing ingredients which is eggplant (one of the favorite in suicide noodles) I was like omg! Not again!

So many thing have had happened for 4 weeks every weekend every time we order there’s always something. I honestly never have a problem before but this time was too much and very disappointed.

Our recent order their mistake was no thai pepper in it. It’s like lomein and the taste wasn’t suicide noodles. We have to call them to let them know since we are already at home and we live farther than before.

(My Review before)
There’s so many things i want to say for this restaurant. I’m speechless they’re always been good and did everything that it could be even it’s pandemic. Very outstanding 6stars We will always come back here no matter where we live even if its far. Lol God bless this people they cook with love and passion!!

Diner Review №124

Finally! Excellent authentic thai food at an affordable price. Great customer service too. We ordered the Penang Curry (Vegetable) and the Pad Kee Mao (Vegetable) through DoorDash. Both dishes tasted great and the flavors were well-balanced. It's nice to have this restaurant in the neighborhood and we look forward to our next order. I recommend this restaurant based on my experience with the food and customer service.

Diner Review №125

Pretty good fried rice

Diner Review №126

Food is ok, not as good as Thai Tanium. It took 75 minutes to fill an order placed online. When I got the order home, they didn't include a soup and appetizer I ordered but was charged for. When I tried to call the phone number on the receipt, nobody picked up after calling multiple times over 30 minutes.

Diner Review №127

Diner Review №145

How have I not reserved this establishment yet!? Having lived on the east and west coast of the US and Canada and being a life long lover of Thai cuisine, Thai Express is the #1.
The best Thai food I’ve ever had.

From the food to the service, it’s all top class. Every dish is masterfully balanced with spices and herbs that massage the palette. Sometimes gently using broad strokes that make you sigh, sometimes digging in to evoke a reflexive gasp, and always leaving you glowing. Highly recommended food: Green curry for a satisfying spice. Pair it with Choo-Choo rice for a sweet, herbaceous balance. For appetizers, the curry puffs are rich without being greasy and are served with a light, non-viscous sweet sauce that make it tough to stop at just one. If you feel you can eat more, and it’s way too easy to, try the Tom Ka soup which is a slightly creamy coconut-based sweet and spicy soup.

I cannot emphasize enough the care put into balancing these dishes so all the flavors can shine through. It reveals notes that otherwise would be overwhelmed. It’s like putting on glasses for the first time, and it’s addictive.

Next the service. It’s Covid time so service is a little special, but having come here a number of times before the pandemic I can say it is as careful as ever. I usually go with take out, and the care taken to ensure the order is accurate, clean, and quick is consistent. By clean I mean the containers are carefully filled and handled so that their exterior are not sticky at all. That means so much to me! The staff is friendly and kind. Prices are great too!

If you’re even remotely in the mood for Thai, pick up something from Thai Express. Never had a bad dish here. You will not be disappointed.

Diner Review №152

Update: instead of refunding my order they charged me again!!!
Went here last week for pick up. Got a chicken pad Thai and a tofu veggie drunken noodle. The store was allowing too many people inside and not following social distancing rules. Further we went there 10 minutes after the order was ready and they told my bf to wait it wasn’t ready- only to find out the girl working there let the order sit another 10 minutes. Got home orders were cold. Chicken pad Thai was flavorless no spice no tamarind. Tofu drunken noodle had ground chicken in it and so was inedible. Called the store for a refund and they said they’d call back next morning. It’s been a week and still no call and no refund. I get this is covid but some basic customer services skills would be nice especially cuz I tipped so much. Too bad thai tanium is closed.. they are wayyy better than this place.

Diner Review №153

Love Love Love Thai Express! BEST Thai food in the area. Don't bother going to Rockville, or Germantown. Consistent great food and reasonable prices. Wonderful service been coming here for years with the family.

Diner Review №154

Awful service. After I asked why they are working without hand gloves and masks are hanging under theirs chins, they kept me waiting for my order additional 25 minutes after time of my pick-up. Checking order on my phone again and again. Working extremely slow. I will never come there again as customer and never gonna take delivery from them.

I've only ever ordered pad se ew with tofu and the house salad with asian ginger dressing, but it's because I love it so much! It's delicious each and every time. The service is always friendly and fast. I recommend giving them a try.

Food quality is excellent. Service is usually good, but sometimes it seems like they cook things out of order. People who came in after we did got their food before us, ended up waiting for a long time. But other than that it's really good Thai food.

I came here because this had a decent rating. Our family orders Thai once a week from different restaurants, usually on Sundays but we ordered from here on a weekday. Here are my thoughts on this place:

PROS: Order was correct for what we ordered (usually ask for 3 slices of lime and item cooked without onions), decent selection items, super close to my house,

CONS: The flavors of the food didn't seem to match up with traditional Thai food (Thai spicy had not heat to it all, Pad Thai didn't taste right), meats were overcooked in our food so a bit chewy, when using GPS to navigate to the location (you need to keep a look out since it won't bring you to the exact location.)

Tried their thai noodles today. It's too sweet and the noodles taste funny. Really disappointed. The red curry chicken I ordered last time, however, is above average. So I guess some of their dishes are still good. The price is okay. Overall, I would rate this place 3 stars and I only recommend curry dishes and fried rice.

Amazingly fast service. Friendly staff, and cozy seating. We got a few rice and noodle dishes; all excellent. The fried appetizers were put in containers with the corners cut off, to keep them crispy - smart!

Diner Review №195

Very good. We go back at least once a week.
