Possibly the best on town

Diner Review №3

Hands-down the best chicken and shrimp pad Thai ever! If you have not been here before please take a chance on this restaurant, you will not be disappointed! Everything they have is fresh and taste delicious!

Diner Review №4

great little place with delicious food, I've been going here since Covid; they are only take out which worked perfectly

Diner Review №5

People here are the worst. They shamelessly jack up the orders and say they heard it wrong. Double check the bill amount of the bill at the end of the call.

Diner Review №6

Any time I'm in Norwood, I stop to get food from Thai Thani! The best!

Diner Review №8

Ordered a pick up order and was overcharged when I got there. When I asked for a receipt she first tried to give me a receipt with just the total on it when I asked for an itemized receipt I got a hand written scribbled receipt that STILL didn’t add up to what she charged me. I’ll never be back. Pay attention here or you’ll get robbed.

Excellent food! Would highly recommend Chicken Pad Thai and Pineapple Fried Rice.

Diner Review №11

Best Thai food around!!!

Diner Review №12

I ordered a pickup order, when I came to the restaurant the lady tried to overcharge me for what I ordered! They are not charging the prices that they have online on the google website!

Diner Review №13

So good 10/10

Diner Review №14

Diner Review №15

The food is excellent. Lots of great vegan options if that is something you're looking for!

They are pickup only so not rating the atmosphere, though worth noting it's a convenient place to pick up from!

Diner Review №16

It's take out only currently.
Recommend the
Yellow curry
Pad Thai

Diner Review №17

If you're searching Thai food in the area look no further. These people are all kind, and food is delicious. My daughter loves their shrimp fried rice!

Diner Review №23

Delicious take out Thai food!

Diner Review №24

excellent food. Not much of an eat-in place but food is well priced and very tasty.

Diner Review №25

Food: amazing! I've had the pad thai and yellow curry and both were delicious. I haven't had a bad experience here yet and the service is friendly and timely. I only gave 2 stars for atmosphere but that's only because it's takeout only. If you're looking for dine in, this isn't the place, but on a nice day you could bring your food to the town common. Would definitely come back for more!

Gluten free safe!

Diner Review №39

We have been up and down Norwood Center a lot in the last few months. We decided to try this place based on a few good recommendations.
We checked it out before Mass at Saint Catherine's this past Saturday. We got a menu and after Mass ordered from our car.
The order was ready on time and I thought the young female was very polite.
I was happy with the portions and I will get again the squash curry.
Easy parking, worth the trip.

Diner Review №40

Excellent curries, and highly recommend the basil pad Thai! Huge portions to boot.

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

Diner Review №43

Their Uncle Pard is the best Thai curry around. I always make sure to stop by whenever I pass through the area.

Diner Review №44

Best. Pad Thai. Ever! Amazing food and very affordable. Owners Monica and Pat are super nice too.

Diner Review №45

Truly a tiny hidden gem! When they had dine-in, the place only held 16 people. With Covid, they are only doing take-out, but the quality of the food has not decreased. They usually have a line of people waiting for take-out as they only allow one person in at a time. Best to order online so it's ready when you get there.

The Golden Cups and Soft Rolls are scrumptious and could be a meal when ordered together. I always order the chicken green curry. Best tasting green curry I've ever had. I order green curry when I go to a new Thai restaurant to compare it with Thai Thani's. Thai Thani is the gold standard for curry.

Diner Review №46

I've lived here in Norwood for 14 years and this place is one of my favorite go to places for Thai food. I can't believe I haven't reviewed it yet. I have been there many times and have never had to complain about the restaurant. They used to have a few seats for people indoors but since covid, they have removed all the seats and have a long plastic barrier to make it safe when you go in to pick up your food. They always have great food and when I go pick up now, the food is always ready to pick up Andi I have never had to wait indoors.
Norwood has a lot of great places to eat at, and this is one of the best

Diner Review №47

Yellow curry was good, but a little sweet. I'm personally not a fan of sweet undertones, so maybe next time I'll request it spicy or just do green curry.

Diner Review №48

If you’re looking for some real amazing Thai food then look no further! I’ve been coming here for years! Plus, The owner runs a very clean and sanitized restaurant. She is very kind and very helpful especially if you are new to The Norwood/Westwood area. Let’s put it this way, I moved away for a little while and then came back with a different phone number… She recognized my voice immediately and knew my exact unique order! As a small business owner, I can’t say enough about this place. Obviously I could go on and on and on. They’ve never let me down once and the flavor has always been the same :-)

now go ahead and enjoy some amazing Thai❤️

Ps. I always recommend the basil fried rice with chicken and add broccoli with some hot sauce on the side😊👍

Diner Review №49

First time trying Thai had the satay was amazing!

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

If you are only looking for food to fill your hunger, this restaurant’s foods are for you. If you are a selective foodie, please take a look at the photos and thinking about it. The pepper and onion in the dish Drunken noodles are huge, noodles are all broken apart, cucumbers are old, pai Thai is colorless, not appetite at all. I can’t believe a individual restaurant don’t care about their food.

Diner Review №53

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. That annoying teenager who took my order smelled so bad I had to fight every urge to leave the building immediately. Other than that? I liked the pad Thai. Good taste.

Diner Review №54

Good food, good service, be warned teenagers do run the counter

Diner Review №55

Diner Review №56

Incredible food, like nothing else nearby. Love the Basil Pad Thai!

Diner Review №57

Food is delicious! But be warned they close at 9 pm not 10!!!

Diner Review №60

I ordered some takeout from Thai Thani this evening and was told it would take 25 minutes. I waited outside for 20 minutes before going in. Paid the amount plus tips, then found they went to the kitchen to start cooking my dishes. So I had to wait for another 10 minutes to get my order. The food tasted nothing like what I had from there before covid. I guess they have changed chef and even the management?

Anyway, it now feels like a completely different restaurant that doesn't worth the nice reviews on google.

If you dont want to read a long review, just know that Yes you should in face order from here. The food is amazing.

But, if you want details, continue on.

First of all, the portions are huge, and this is one of the lest expensive thai restaurants in the area. Second, Ive had food at the 2020 Traveler's Awarded, Pad Thai shop in Karon, Thailand just pre-covid and this food here took me straight back to Thailand. The flavors and even the presentation are truly authentic. I got the chicken and shrimp pad thai as well as the vegetable fried rice and somosas. Everything was exceptional, and I wish I hadnt dove right in lol! I will post pictures next time I order.

Diner Review №84

Very good restaurant in Norwood. Prices are affordable and plates are generous.
I recommend you to put your order in advance.

Monica is always great and gracious for last 14 yrs we have been going...quantity and quality are never compromised even on crazy busy days.

Diner Review №89

Massive portions, super-reasonable pricing. Quality food. House Special Fried Rice with Chicken, Shrimp, Beef is my go-to. Also Red Curry is awesome!

Diner Review №93

Diner Review №94

Been coming here since it opened 20 years ago. Great food and great service. Currently they only do take out though normally there are 2 or 3 small inside tables.

Diner Review №95

Best Thai restaurant in this state, worth moving to Massachusetts for.

Basil Pad Thai is to die for. Get it with chicken and ask for tofu, too.

Diner Review №96

Diner Review №97

Best thai style curries anywhere. Family owned and run. Amazing food and never gets old for me. Easily eaten here upward of 50 times in the past 3 years and the food is always on point. Plenty of vegan/veg options. Good portions of course for dining in or taking out. I never knew I loved vegetables so much until I ate here. Amazing food run by great people

Diner Review №98

Diner Review №99

Tiny little restaurant, mostly take out. The food is really tasty. Far better then some dine in thai restaurants in the area.

Diner Review №100

Tastes good

Diner Review №101

Nice and small Thai place with traditional food.

Diner Review №102

Diner Review №103

Diner Review №104

The food is pretty good but I was disappointed that their menu is unclear online and does not show the dinner items/prices and what is included. The dinner curry dishes don’t include rice, which to me seems very standard. I think this is something that can easily be included, or if not, should be clearly stated on their online menu.

Diner Review №105

Neat little place in downtown Norwood. On street parking is plenty and it a shouldn't be hard to find a spot. The restaurant isn't too big and has a small seating area.

Speaking about the food, it was really good! I tried the Tom Yum Soup and the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was tasty and the quantity was more than sufficient. I feel like one pad Thai is enough for two people. Will definitely be coming back again in the future.

Diner Review №106

Diner Review №107

So good. Every time

2 chicken yellow curry, 2 large rice, 1 order of chicken satay = perfection!

Diner Review №111

The owners are very sweet and the food is very good, highly recommended.

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

Pathetic customer service - I go there at 9:20 PM and the lady says that the restaurant is closed - why wouldn’t they update the website and in other places where they are listed on the exact timing - everywhere the closing time is mentioned as 1OPM and when I point that out to the lady she says today we are closing early - pathetic and wouldn’t visit here anymore

Diner Review №114

Hidden gem! Won ton soup is AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Diner Review №115

Nice service, beautifully decorated- very flavorful food. We'll be back 🥰

Diner Review №116

Red curry was phenomenal!!

Diner Review №117

Great little spot with a cozy dining room and a menu with all of your favorites. I had Pad Thai is it was excellent. I was warned about the spice level and took their advice. I am glad I did! Highly recommend this restaurant.

Best Thai food 💜💜💜💜

Diner Review №123

Food is great. Small eat in area.

Diner Review №124

Absolutely LOVE this little restaurant! We’ve been coming here for years, and my husband even longer than me. We’ve been out of state for maybe four years now and every time we come back Monica greets us and still knows our order. It’s like coming home whenever we visit. I love this place and pray it NEVER closes. It’s the first priory on our stops when visiting New England. Their food will feed your soul🖤

Diner Review №125

Diner Review №126

The food is great but the customer service is awful!

Diner Review №129

Diner Review №130

Very good Thai food. Fast and friendly service. Reasonable prices. A tiny treasure!

Diner Review №131

Having tried thai food at many places in eastern mass, this place is always tops on my wife and I's list! The menu has alot to offer, everything that we have had there has been oh so savory!

Diner Review №132

The flavor of the food here is fantastic except for one thing - it's too sweet for my taste. If you like your pad Thai with a bit of sweetness you will probably love this place. It's just not for me.

Diner Review №133

The best healthy food around!!!

Diner Review №134

Hands down the best Thai food one can get in Massachusetts. The food portion, quality and taste are worth mentioning. A must-visit restaurant.

Diner Review №135

The food is off the charts delicious! Super authentic and so worth the wait that comes with such a tiny dining room. Go for it!

Diner Review №136

Diner Review №137

Great Thai food.

Diner Review №138

Diner Review №139

Overall all the dishes at this place that I've tried they've been very good. but the one you simply must try is the duck to choo chee. It is absolutely fantastic

Diner Review №140

Authentic and delicious.

Diner Review №141

My fiance and I had the Tod Mon for aps and basil pad thai, tamarind duck and shrimp scampi thai style for entree(i wanted to try a few things).

And I'm so glad I did.

We had a cozy nook by the front window and we never felt crowded.

The shrimps were perfectly cooked and tender and the duck you could cut with a fork. All the sauces were flavorful and distinct. The basil pad thai was the perfect balance of sweet/savory/spicy.

I will be coming here for dine in and take out much more often.

Diner Review №142

Diner Review №143

Great food, wonderful people. The service is so good you feel like you're in someone's home. Good food at a great price too.

Diner Review №144

Diner Review №145

Most delicious Thai food in the area! The serving sizes are large and are worth the price. Ordering takeout is also a good option as the portions are generous and give great bang for the buck. The interior of the restaurant is cozy, they might be able to accommodate large parties but it will be a snug fit. The place is terribly busy on weekends with locals flooding the place and everything takes long to prepare but still maintains the highest food quality and taste, but it is recommended to plan accordingly if visiting or ordering takeout on weekends.

Diner Review №146

Our family went there in 3/13/2019. The space is a mid sized room with 4 or 5 tables with a maximum capacity of 22 members.

We ordered veg rolls and butterfly shrimp starters. A plate of rolls has 4 and the other one has 6 items. Their prices were 5.xx, 6.xx. They are pricey.

We ordered house special fried rice and rice noodles with chicken and shrimp. The quantity is ok. The amount of vegetables is very less and chicken is very less. They were priced around $10 each. The fried rice has more dry fish flavor (may be due to fish sauce). There was no service. Attendant came to receive order, to place items, to collect the plates at the end. No element of service.

The amount was 37.25. She added 5.45 as a tip and we paid 42.xx. The value we are getting very limited for the price we pay here.

Diner Review №147

Diner Review №148

Get the Chicken Kra Pao. Its great!

Diner Review №149

Good thai resteraunt. Decided to eat in. Everything we ordered was good but menu seemed a bit limited. I love rad nah and beef satay but was not on the menu. Seems like a great place to order take out. So many people came in to get their take out food. Shrimp pad thai was delicious and so was masaman curry. Refilled hot tea continuously. Just would do take out next time.

Diner Review №150

Diner Review №151

Diner Review №152

Already drooling thinking about this place. BASIL PAD THAI !!! All their curry dishes are great , pineapple fried rice is good and for apps it’s either golden cups or dumplings. I order once a week bc life is meant to be enjoyed 😃!

Diner Review №153

Diner Review №154

Small and cozy restaurant.
Exceptional Thai cuisine. Flavorful aromatic dishes. Highly recommend the Red Curry with Tofu and the Ginger chicken.

Diner Review №160

Best Thai takeout around! Great size portions, very reasonably priced, and the staff allow substitutions to the dishes. The red veggie curry is outstanding and my favorite. The basil pad thai, fried rice, and yellow curry are also amazing. Definitely give this place a try!

I know of no where else where you can take 6 people for lunch, have it cost only $62 total, and have everyone raving about how excellent the food was!

Diner Review №168

Amazing food

Diner Review №169

Good Thai place, the only thing I'd recommend staying away from would be the regular pad thai, it's a little bland. Other stuff is good!

Diner Review №170

Went there for lunch today because I was in the area. The green curry chicken was great! Just wish I lived closer, I'd make it a regular stop.

Diner Review №171

Diner Review №172

Green curry is amazing. Pad Thai is too sticky and fishy to my liking.

Diner Review №173

Diner Review №174

Great food place looks deceiving but nwver judge a book by cover only

Diner Review №175

Diner Review №176

I hate giving a small family-run business 1-star, but I had to. Their basil pad thai was just really really bad. The noodles looked/tasted like mushy angel hair pasta, not the typical Thai rice noodles. The others' food at my table also wasn't appetizing. Granted they were 4 workers short the night we went, but I don't think the food would have been much better on a regular night (recipe still the same). At times like these, I suggest they take either pickup orders or sit-down orders only, not both. Instead of providing poor service/timeliness to all customers, they can focus on just one group and not have everyone waiting over an hour for simple pad thai. I give the front-house guy credit for hustling and expediting, but their current overall google rating doesn't seem to match reality.

Diner Review №177

Fresh and delishes! Best Basil Pad Thai I've had. Already looking forward to trying a few more entrees.

Diner Review №178

Unbelievable delicious high quality food !

Diner Review №179

Very good food. Like others have said, some of it is on the sweet side. I had the green curry and it was perfect! I look forward to taking my wife here!

Diner Review №180

Diner Review №181

Best Tom Yum I have ever had. Basil Pad Thai similar to Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodle) but with a twist. Actual ground chicken a major plus. It was flavorful with balanced spice. A hint too much oil though.

Cute atmosphere in a chamingly small space. Clean and nice-smelling restroom. Server attentive and quick to refill water and bring check when lunch was finished.

Fresh, authentic, clean... If I am in the area again, will gladly re-visit.

Diner Review №182

Diner Review №183

I love this place. Everything's delicious and fresh. Tiny little place hard to find but worth it when you do! Basil Pad Thai is amazing!

Diner Review №184

A very small restaurant with numbered tables and average service. Environment and decorations are unique, but food is either too sweet and/or too salty. Cut down 50% of salt and sugar then this place can be a healthy 4-star to me and my family.

Diner Review №185

Diner Review №186

Food is made to order. Very fresh. 20 seats available, very small. You don't go there for a romantic dinner but if you want to eat great thai food it is a must go

Diner Review №187

This is my fav local Thai restaurant! The food is always fresh and delicious. The service is great and I love the cozy environment. It’s reasonably priced!
