Great food and service! Highly recommend.

Diner Review β„–2

We went for dinner, for we were never there before I realized sitting down that it was primarily take out clients vs. dine in, we were the only dine in guests. The staff was very friendly, the food very delicious and reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back, for dining in. "atmosphere" got 4 out of 5 because seating was a bit tight, plenty of space between tables, but the tables are on the small side, and it can easily get crowded on the table.

Diner Review β„–3

My favorite spot for comfort food! The people are so kind and the place is so homey inside!

When most recently ordered the portions and flavors were spot on! Fresh vegetables and neatly packed to go, the value for me and my husband’s meals were great. I would recommend!

Diner Review β„–13

Love the food. Excellent execution, though slightly toned down for American tastes. Service people are professional and kind.
Would love it if owners could take over adjoining bay for a quieter in house dining area with booths and maybe even liquor license. We order from here almost once per month. But we might choose as dine out destination if quieter seating area were available.
Always get pad Thai. I really enjoy it's gentle sweetness. Chef's accommodate special order of tofu pad Thai when not in mood for chicken. Occasionally, would like to be able to get tamarind/chili sauce on side for more authentic flavor.

Healthy hot tasty food.
5/5 for ambiance, taste, service.

Re-reviewing the take out experience here -
Absolute best, warm, crunchy πŸ«› , they know how to make every bite delish. Salt to seafood ratio is perfected here as compared to the other restaurants.

Meets and exceeds expectations.

Hope their business flourishes and they do extremely well. Often find it not buzzing with visitors, hence the addendum.

Padthai noodles were overcooked. Only 3 shripms. The beef curry was not good. I do not recommend this place.

The place is very cozy and welcoming. Low key atmosphere. Staff are attentive and quite kind. The service is fast and efficient. And the food? So many good choices on the menu I couldn't decide got 2 appetizers and an entree. Everything was absolutely delicious.

Diner Review β„–32

We stopped to pick up food on the way to our son's house. He and his wife raved about the food and they were right. I really enjoyed the mix of meat and veggies on my platter, and the spring rolls were light and tasty. Everyone had something different and we shared among ourselves. I would happily order any of the dishes again. As with most Asian restaurants there was enough food for 2 meals. Thank you!

Diner Review β„–33

Nice A nice quaint place and it's a very cool restaurant when you walk in. There's all kinds of cool stuff and the food is delicious only thing. I did not like about this place if they do not serve any cocktails. Why in the world would you not serve cocktails food is delicious though

Diner Review β„–34

We love the food and the exceptional service.

Diner Review β„–35

I visit this restaurant quite regularly and food is always good. I like the Pad Woon Sen and the pineapple fried rice the best.

Diner Review β„–36

Update: it's been 4 years since I left my first review, and we tried this restaurant again a couple nights ago. It was fantastic! It was everything we wanted for a comfort food dinner. I'm glad to upgrade my previous review to 5 stars.

Diner Review β„–37

The mango fried rice was awesome.

Diner Review β„–38

Diner Review β„–39

This is my favorite Thai restaurant! The service is great, and the food is phenomenal. I love the Chiangmai Noodles, a delicious creamy dish, and the Crab Rangoon is truly to die for. The food can be a little expensive, but it is absolutely worth it. Would definitely recommend for a lunch or dinner!

Awesome food and great people. The Papaya Salad was amazing and I cannot wait to come back for Larb. Their food is very traditional and full of incredible ingredients, lime, chilis, and great Thai flavors. Our server was so kind and genuine, such a sweet lady. We look forward to another visit!

Diner Review β„–45

Amazing meal! One of my top 3, no joke. I’ve been to the other location in Northborough. This is better! We got the roti with chicken curry, pacific soup and roast duck curry. The chicken curry was so good, nice and smooth with a nice little kick. Pacific soup was cooked to perfection. I always like to get seafood noodle soups when I can, the seafood tends to be over cooked. This was perfect. The roast duck curry was so good, too. Highly recommend. Small restaurant, very casual but divine.

Diner Review β„–46

Got take out tonight and the bag was so weak that the bottom fell out in our garage because it was saturated with leaked liquid.. Couldn’t salvage much, but the food we got tasted too sweet when we requested spicy. Won’t be in a hurry to return.

Diner Review β„–47

I can't believe it took me so long to go here! Of course I was afraid of the traffic situation. BUT turns out there us their own light to exit! So easy in and out!
Now the food, it's very well done. Satay is not dried out like all other places. Pad Thai is the best in town. People/Nicky is friendly. It may be small, but it's great!

Diner Review β„–48

Delicious every time we go. Been going here for over 10 years.

Diner Review β„–49

Very friendly atmosphere in comfortable quiet setting. Great food...lots of options. Don't be afraid to ask for extra spicy!

Delicious food, great service and well priced. We went in as a group of 10-12 for lunch after making reservations and it was spacious enough for all. The scallion pancakes were amazing and fresh rolls and other entrees were also good with a good portion size

We have only had take-out twice, but have enjoyed it both times! The service is supremely friendly, and the atmosphere seems very quaint and cozy since it’s a smaller spot. They even have a table for two outside, which a couple was enjoying while we grabbed our food! Loved the Thai Tea

Diner Review β„–78

Basil Fried Rice @ 13. something is way too pricey and it was so bland that we had to add additional favors at home to eat it.

Diner Review β„–86

Solid pad Thai flavor. Shrimp was a bit fishy and bland though.

Diner Review β„–87

Diner Review β„–88

Spring rolls were crispy and flavorful, but the pad see ew tasted like watery cafeteria scrambled eggs. I've never eaten pad see ew before that lacked flavor, and I was really surprised how bad it was given this restaurant's excellent reviews. The chicken in the dish was overcooked as well, but I could've overlooked that if the sauce and other components were tasty. It was just really disappointing for such a mainstay Thai dish to be done so poorly.

Diner Review β„–89

Food was very bland. Cooked well, but lacked flavor.

Diner Review β„–90

I love this place! The food is delicious and the atmosphere and decor are perfect. I’m glad they’re offering delivery during the covid19 crisis, and I can’t wait to go back in person.

A nice little hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Good flavors, good service. The Chicken Larb was quite tangy and spicy.

Diner Review β„–97

Diner Review β„–98

The staff is always so nice and welcoming. The food is AMAZING. By far the best Thai place in this area. I get the Spicy Pad Thai at least once a week (my guilty pleasure) and it never disappoints. I would give Yoong Tong 10 stars if I could.

Diner Review β„–99

Charming little place just off the commons. The drunken noodles could've used more flavor and the Thom Kah was slightly sweeter than in used to. Very friendly staff.

Went for lunch. Service was quick and friendly, and the place is well kept. I ordered the Grapaw chicken (not sure if I spelled correctly) and it was FABULOUS. It's spicy, but not as spicy as you would think. I have a pretty low spiciness tolerance, and I managed to finish my meal. Highly recommend.

Nice place to gather friends. Food is fresh and the server was attentive.

Diner Review β„–126

The best Thai chef and very competent wait staff. I lived in Bangkok for three years and I can say the entire menu rivals the best offered in Thailand. Prices are reasonable and servings especially generous. I highly recommend Chef Talk-ta and May for a very authentic Thai experience. The wall trappings are authentic as well and the background Thai music adds to the mellow ambiance. PA

Oh boy I love this place. It's not cheap and a meal for two averages $50, but the food is delicious! It's the second time I've been there and I'm telling you, you MUST try the Thai iced tea, it's absolutely amazing, I'm super hooked into it. The beef pad Thai with basil is wonderful and the scallion pancakes are a great way to start. Awesome customer service also!

Diner Review β„–149

Small thai drive hidden in chelmsford center. Great for small lunch groups. Great Tom Yum soup!

Diner Review β„–150

The rating is unfair but they were closed on a Sunday that they were supposed to be open so I didn't get to try it.

Diner Review β„–151

Ordered delivery through Seamless. Order was delivered EXTREMELY fast, like less than 30 minutes from placing it online. Food was really, really good, and considering there are no other Thai delivery options in the area, we were totally stoked about the quality. Fresh rolls were awesome. Crazy Noodles were properly spicy, and the Pad Thai w/ crispy chicken is my new favorite thing. It's chicken pad thai, but with a fried chicken cutlet on top. It bears repeating - FRIED CHICKEN ON TOP OF CHICKEN PAD THAI. You should definitely get food here. Trust my opinion. This is not some lame fake review. Either go to the restaurant, or get delivery, just get food from here. Mad decent.

Diner Review β„–152

Had some very delicious crazy noodles.

Diner Review β„–189

I moved to Chelmsford 3 years ago and have been in search of a good Thai food restaurant like I was used to in Boston. This place was so good I'm not even finished with my food yet, I just had to share how amazing it tastes. As a side note I never do these rating things; that's how impressed I am with their food

Diner Review β„–190

Food is always fresh and tasty - strangely it's almost always empty. The parking lot is hard to get to through a silly intersection.

Diner Review β„–191

Excellent service, lovely presentation, reasonably good Thai food. I came in near closing time and they were just as polite and helpful to me as they would be to the first customer. They happily customized a dish for me as well.

Diner Review β„–192

If you are looking for a very very good Thai restaurant - this would be your choice.

Diner Review β„–195

Quiet unassuming ambiance, food good but not great

Diner Review β„–196

Service is extremely slow, it is staffed by only one person in the front. Didn't get water or attention for 10 minutes after sitting down. The dumplings were definately straight out of a bag. Only upside of the restaurant is the parking outside.

Eat lunch elsewhere.

Diner Review β„–197

Very expensive compare to the quantity and quality. Restaurant was hot without AC. I have been served warm water without ice. The food quantity was not enough for dinner for one. Food is OK.

Diner Review β„–198

Eat here often with a number of folks from the office. We all enjoy our dishes and excellent service.
