Asian art adorns this relaxed, standard Thai eatery with a menu of classic entrees & lunch specials.
I recently dined at Pa De and was thoroughly impressed! From the moment we walked in, the cozy and romantic ambiance set the perfect tone for the evening. We started with a delightful Thai iced tea and shared appetizers of calamari and spring rolls, both perfectly crispy and delicious. The pad thai was flavorful and cooked to perfection, making it a standout dish. The brownie with ice cream and the sticky rice with mango were the perfect sweet endings to our meal—the sticky rice with mango was particularly unique and memorable. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive, frequently checking in to ensure we had everything we needed. The restaurant was spotless, adding to the overall pleasant experience. I can't wait to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Thai cuisine!
I just had food delivered through DoorDash, and I was horrified to find a dead fly in my Massaman curry. The packaging was airtight—Saran wrapped containers and a tightly sealed bag—so there’s no way the fly got in during transit. This points to a serious hygiene issue in the kitchen. Flies carry harmful bacteria, so this isn’t just gross, it’s dangerous. On top of that, I ordered roti with tofu because I’m vegetarian, but they sent chicken instead. The lack of care and attention to detail is really disappointing. I won’t be ordering from this place again, and I’d advise others to think twice.
THIS PLACE IS THEM, THIS PLACE IS THAT! This is an AMAZING restaurant. Amazing staff, i mean fantastic service! Now let’s get down to the FOOD. This food is fantastic, i had the curry puffs and they was definitely puffing. Delicious and tasty, flavorful and crisp. Now my amazing wife had the vegetable dumplings and they were amazing on their own. I would get them next time for sure. Now in the picture that’s the before, what you don’t see in the after is because I ate everything in the picture. This curry was everything and they give you an amazingly large amount which is perfect. I absolutely recommend this spot, please show up and show out for them! They deserve it!!
My Thai food craving was totally satisfied with this cheat meal. Oh oh, it seems to be happening quite often lately. lol. "Deep Fried Crispy Chicken Wontons". When going fried... Go BIG or don't even bother. These wontons are a super crispy yumminess! Also ordered the Chicken Dumpling Soup, so delicious. Their food is very tasty and best of all, they're BYOB. Bring yourself, friends and your favorite bottle. Dine inside, sit outdoors during nice weather or just order to go.
Metered street parking is available.
Enjoy!

This was my favorite place to visit. Ever since I moved in the area in 2016. Sadly the staff has changed dramatically, and the service took a nose dive. I recently ordered take out my usual Panang Chicken, and there was very little chicken. At first glance , it looked like a vegetarian dish. Only to discover two small pieces of chicken. I notified the restaurant, and spoke with the manager to no avail. She wasn’t even apologetic or concerned. I conveyed to her that it was an inconvenience because I worked all day and had to return to the restaurant. After experiencing the managers rudeness and unpleasant energy, I just asked for a refund. I believe the energy and response would have been different with the previous staff. Unfortunately the current staff needs to understand the importance of hospitality and service.
The food is fantastic and the service was attentive. The BYOB option is great 👍 I tried the curry fried pineapple rice, the Mango 🥭 salad with squid, the curry puffs, and the ribs with veggie fried rice. I enjoyed every dish. The Mango sticky rice dessert was my favorite and I would totally order it again. Nice local spot 👌
タイカレー、美味しかったです。スタッフの人たちも感じが良く、丁寧なサービスをされていました。2度食べにいきましたが、2回とも楽しく食事ができました。また行きたいです。

Great experience and great food!

Pa De does not support freedom of speech. I have been ordering from them since I moved to Edgewater over 4 years ago and maybe 6 months ago had a less than stellar experience, I ordered some food that was spicy (it was pad Thai so it shouldn't have been & I always go out of my way to emphasize that I can't handle anything remotely spicy). So I sent it back & they were kind enough to send me a new one but that one was spicy too so feeling really bummed and annoyed (because they were insisting it wasn't spicy but my taste buds were telling me differently and I'd never had that problem with them before) I came here and changed my 5 star review to a 1 star one. I didn't even write anything mean, I said I was sad because I'd always loved their Pad Thai but now it looked like I might have to find a new go to Thai restaurant. You know, just kind of venting b/c I was disappointed as is my right as an American to do but I still went out of my way to say they had great service. Well no sooner had I pressed send when the woman who had insisted that it wasn't spicy called me & yelled at me lol. I kid you not. She kept insisting over and over it wasn't spicy and I explained as politely as possible that to me it was. When we got off the phone though I felt kind of bad so I actually went & changed my 1 star review to 3 stars. And honestly had things not gone even more downhill, I'm pretty sure I would've changed it back to 5 stars because I decided to try ordering from them again hoping it was just a one time fluke the previous time. However when I tried to order I got a very odd response. The girl on the phone said the delivery guy didn't want to deliver to me because "we'd had a fight" lol. This was news to me as I'd always had very pleasant interactions with the delivery guys and I always tipped, etc. I told her I had no idea what she was talking about & they ended up actually delivering to me that day but then the next time I called as soon as I gave them my info she said "oh we just stopped delivering." This was at about 8pm. I asked if they would be delivering later that night & she said no the delivery guy had an emergency or something like that. And what do you know the next time I called same thing, as soon as I gave my info they were no longer delivering. I don't think I need to explain how utterly ridiculous & WRONG this is to do to a customer of literally years. It would be wrong even if I was a new customer! Literally all I did was use my first amendment right to freedom of speech to express myself and I made sure to do so in a respectful manner. And I even changed the # of stars from 1 to 3 after they called me (which was psychotic of them to do but I still felt bad). But because I used my freedom of speech they decided I wasn't worthy any longer as a customer. That is a vile & disgusting way to treat any customer let alone one who has spent hundreds of dollars on your restaurant over the years & would've spent hundreds more. Not to mention they've literally lied to me repeatedly about not delivering 😒 what a coincidence that they stop delivering literally every time I call now. The last time my daughter was here visiting from Colorado, I only get to see her a cpl of xs a year so the time we have is really precious to me & we ALWAYS order from Pad De. But what do you know they refused to deliver to us & I don't have a car or live close enough to walk so picking up on our own was not an option. My daughter was literally in tears and couldn't understand why they wouldn't deliver to us. It's like a friend who you've had for years and you have a little tiff & even though you apologize they hold it against you FOREVER. So I really really really really really cannot NOT recommend this place enough. Honestly the worst & most unprofessional customer service I've ever experienced from any restaurant in my entire life.
I love there food, always super tasty and yummy. Clean cute restaurant, my favorite area is there outdoor seating
Pa De thai, is the best thai food i have had since i was in Thailand. All the ingredients are fresh and the service was excellent! I’ve always have a good experience both dining in and delivery service which is always great!
I should not be spending $30 for pineapple fried rice and some spring rolls. The driver had no change and I was forced to give him a $15 tip. I don’t mind paying for quality food, as a matter fact, I usually do so. To be quite honest with you, this food was not worth that price!! Beware!!
Amazing food. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended Food is always delicious.
Very rude staff. Food was ok but when we complained about the Pad Thai Noodles being raw, the server said, "Ok, Don't order it next time"
Súper
Their pad thai and green curry are very good. Nice atmosphere and friendly staffs.
I can't say enough good things about this place! From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and provided top-notch service. Let's talk about the food – it was phenomenal. I tried the vegetable dumplings, which were a delightful mix of flavors and textures. The shrimp fried rice I had was fantastic, bursting with fresh, savory flavors. My husband had the curry puffs, and he couldn't stop raving about how light and flavorful they were. The portions were generous, especially the curry, which was so satisfying. In the picture, you see our meal before we dug in – everything disappeared quickly because it was so delicious. This restaurant is a must-visit. Do yourself a favor and check it out!"
THIS PLACE IS THEM, THIS PLACE IS THAT! This is an AMAZING restaurant. Amazing staff, i mean fantastic service! Now let’s get down to the FOOD.

Fantastic!
Food and service are great. Feels cozy and good for lunch and dinner.
I’d say a realistic score would be 7.1/10
1) Service is great. Attentive & great timing of servers coming to your table here & there (some restaurants lack attentiveness & timing of service) Menus having a separate book of photos was great to see what we’re expecting; helpful for people who may be first to Thai food/new cultural food in general.
2. Food is delicious. We had skirt steak & tilapia which were cooked great & portions were generous. I would say a recommendation would be too much sauce and a variety of less sweetness would be great. We had calamari, skirt steak and tilapia & all the sauces in or on the side were sweet, not overwhelmingly, but enough to become overwhelming over several bites. Other than that, it was delicious.
3. Unsure what it was… if it was durian and/or someone ordered something odd smelling (me & my friend are fine with strong smell of different cultural foods) but this one was definitely uncomfortably strong & thankfully it was when we were about to leave… Still curious what it may have been but it was definitely food/fruit.
Great & cute place nevertheless! Give it a try :)
To be fair, my review comes from having eaten at some amazing Thai places in nyc and having been to Thailand so I’m well aware of the authenticity of the food.
My friend and I got the papaya salad and Penang curry. Both dishes lacked depth of flavor. The Penang curry was watery like a soup and the salad was simply lettuce and shredded papaya with a lemony dressing.
We also got veg spring rolls which had brown mash in it vs shredded vegetables.
It was not appetizing at all.
This is an average Thai place so best you go in with that expectation.
Very rude cashier, do not order extra beef or shrimp, you will get 2-3 extra pieces only and they charge $4.
Favorite Thai restaurant. Food is made well every time I come. Highly recommend
this place is in one of the quieter areas in edgewater. i tried it for the first time and i loved it! it’s super cute and cozy. the window was lined with plants and they also had outdoor seating! i got the massaman curry with tofu and it was amazing. the service was wonderful too, the waiters were super nice! this is definetly the best thai food in edgewater! or even in the edgewater area!

Ordered food from Pa De Thai today for lunch. Food is AMAZING here. Huge portions and everything was cooked perfectly. All 3 dishes we ordered were delicious and has enough food for 2-3 meals. Had the Thai ice tea as well which was excellent. Eat here , you wont be sorry!!!!
The food is delish!
Do not order from here. They decided to not send half of our order with no explanation. The food was actually received was not good.
Nice place.
Good food.
I wish staff could be more polite.
I felt like they were in a rush for everything.
I got flies in my soup.
That was nasty , and then my main entre food came before the soup came. I told him that would you be able to cancel the soup, the server was nice, but the owner lady told me she would pack the food if I didn't want it the soup. The idea of soup is to drink it before your main food. So we could not enjoy the soup.
And lastly, the gratuity depends on the service you get it. They were forced to put more tips. To be honest, I did not like that part. If I get good service then , yes I should give it from my heart at least 15% or more. But they were forcing you!! And we did not like the overall service. They were rushing us!
Overall, it was an okay experience.
My delivery order got mixed up. But, they were able to send the right order super quickly. I enjoyed the pad thai :) Thank you!
I like the food. Taste was great. The crew was nice too.
Good food for good price 👌
Horrible service. Rudest owner, you will ever meet. Waitress can’t speak English, got the order wrong. Owner did not care to fix the situation.
Yum
Not sure what went wrong. There food used to be delicious. Today we ordered panage curry it literally had 5 small thin pieces of meat and everything else was bean bean and more beans with soup same thing with my other dish lot of veggies. Picture is attached for panage curry. What surprises me for $18.00 bucks of panage curry you serve me this (picture attached)?
Best Thai food in the neighborhood personally so far.
Ordered food per waiters recommendation
Pad Kee Mao (chicken)- delicious just the right amount of salt and spiciness. Not oily as well usually other places could be oily and feels uncomfortable after eating. But this place nails it.
Pork chop fried rice - very juicy well seasoned pork chop with the right amount of tenderness. Very flavorful. Huge amount of rice btw.
Plus their vegetables are well sautéed and abundant. Fresh and light. Not mushy at all unlike some place I've been to
The only critique is to make the outside dining area a bit more atmospheric like their inside interior.
Mandatory tipping 18percent hmmm I can't complain today since the recommended food was spot on so leave it up to you guys to decide.
Theres paid Parking space in front free on sundays. Not too many spaces when I went though.
If your feeling to go for Chinese. I recommend going here instead
Feels much more healthy and satisfying not that I'm a doctor or a nutritionist
Will be back for lunch specials
We love the food but something is wrong with the way the restaurant charges for their food and service.
After we paid our bill and gave our tip the staff made it point to request we give them one of their "recommended" amount as a tip.
This is wrong because then the tip amount is NOT recommended it is demanded.
I will not be returning to this restaurant because of this.
It's just wrong.
I have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive because of some of the negative reviews. After dining here, I have to say that I'm shocked at how anyone can give them less than 5 stars. My experience was pretty amazing! We celebrated my mother in law's birthday earlier this evening. The food was on point! Some of the best Thai food I've ever had in NJ. Every dish was bursting with flavor. The spice level was perfect, just the way I like it (except for papaya salad-this could have been spicier). We really enjoyed the popcorn shrimp and pad kee mao (drunken noodles). The curries were excellent. I believe they can improve their desserts. The mango in the mango sticky rice wasn't ripe :/ and we ordered 3 of them for dessert. The rice was good, though. The warm brownie that came with ice cream wasn't warm, but still tasted good. The servers were sweet, attentive, and checked on us frequently. It's also BYOB, so feel free to bring your favorite bottle. The place was clean. Nice bathrooms as well. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're craving some authentic Thai food. I will definitely be back!!!
Nice place, food is good .like the outdoor seating although it can be improved needs to be spruced up a little they have too many plants and things that don't make any sence it can be a really nice outdoor seating.
It was a delivery order. The order got mixed up , but they did delivery the missing dish pretty quickly . The flavors were there , however , the pad thai noodles were shredded to small piece , which made it look extremely unappetizing, and made us wonder if we were brought left overs from dining in customers .
The chicken wings for $10 were 5 small halves, which is 2 1/2 full wings. The portion was so tiny , it was barely enough for 1 adult , forget about 3 . Considering that restaurants are paying wholesale prices for their produce, the portion size of their wings is humiliating. It is so rare and nowadays that you can take a break from cooking at home and order in satisfying meal. It is very sad. Thank you for the meal , but I will never order from this place again.
Cozy cute restaurant, nice servers, nice outdoor space as well. Unfortunately, the entrees were bad and I could not really eat it. The appetizers were tasty however, but overall, disappointing.
My family and I were very disappointed with the food and service when we went out to eat last weekend. It took over a half hour for the food to arrive at our table and when it did it was cold. In addition, the eating utensils did not look like they were thoroughly cleaned.
Very nice ambiance, food and great service overall. Waiters are very warm and cozy. Front desk felt a bit rude, however they might have been busy elsewhere or could have been a communication gap.
Got delivery, so can't comment on service or atmosphere.
I'm a stingy reviewer. Food was good, it just wasn't great.
Pad See Ew with beef 3/5
Tom Ka Soup 3/5
Fried Rice with chicken and shrimp 4/5
Excellent pad Thai
I wish I could give them 0 star. Terrible, absolutely Terrible service. Our server and manager were so rude. Once we place the order, they started talking in different language and made fun of us.
Food was below average, water down green curry. They have indoor plants but it was not maintained properly. Ants were coming on my table and flies were around our table as well.
Response to owners comment:
there’s a difference in, speaking in thai casually vs speaking in front of customer as soon as they placed the order. It was clearly visible that you made fun of us. If you have a policy that you have to order minimum food then you should have inform us earlier, we might have just do take out. I nicely explained that we already had dinner next door but we were craving for green curry, so we stop by. I didn’t know it was a crime (as per your response). After all these terrible experiences I still gave 12% tip, but you didn’t stop there. Your server rushed to my table n snatched the check receipt. She even didn’t wait for my father to stand up from his chair. You need to have some respect for your customer.
Food was ok. If anyone is looking for nice thai food then i would recommend Clifton thai in clifton and up thai in NYC.
We ordered green curry and it was alright. Server was not welcoming, she was acting weird she didn't even say hi how are you like she was in a bad mood or something. I was not going to write any reviews bcs I thought may be it's a bad day for her. Then she started talking to her coworker at the counter in her language and we knew that she was talking about us. Still we ignored everything and didn't say a word.
My bill was $15 and I gave her 12% tip even after rude behavior and bad hospitality. We were leaving and the other girl from counter ran behind us and stopped us. And she started yelling that how come you gave us only 12% tip, you have to give minimum 15% tip. I explained nicely that what we experienced and I didn't want to just leave without giving tip. But she was literally unprofessional and immature behavior. We left still she was yelling behind and everyone in the restaurant was looking and I saw there was people who were agreed when I said server was rude.
Flavors Transported me back to thailand. I have found my fav, comfy vibe neighborhood Thai place.. it’s very Cozy with excellent service .. staff is extremely polite (true Thai hospitality ). They are pet friendly dined with my dog in the patio yesterday.. the staff got him ice cold water as it was a hot day.
Food gets 10/10 esp because I have lived in SG and travelled avidly in Asia.. Thai iced tea is a must .. roti canai was spot on and loved Thai green curry 🍛 🥣 🍜.. it was mildly spicy 🌶️
This food was absolutely disgusting and didn’t smell like Thai food nor taste like Thai food. The noodles were absolutely horrible and made my stomach hurt shortly after. I will NEVER order from this place again. What a horrible experience.
Excellent pad Thais here. I love this place and I’m their regular customer. Food is always delicious!
Yea, this is where you wanna go. The Pad Thai is SO unbelievably delicious! I get mine with tofu and I ask for it crispy and every time I eat it, it’s like the first time. It’s savory and sweet and the peanuts round it out so nicely!! It’s come to the point where I crave it in the morning!! I can tell they put their soul into their food. They are all so nice when I’ve dined in. My new favorite Thai spot! Thank you for your delicious food and I will see you again VERY soon!!! :))
The food is fantastic and the service was attentive. The BYOB option is great 👍 I tried the curry fried pineapple rice, the Mango 🥭 salad with squid, the curry puffs, and the ribs with veggie fried rice. I enjoyed every dish. The Mango sticky rice dessert was my favorite and I would totally order it again. Nice local spot 👌
pad thai not so good.
I very rarely give 1 or 2 Stars, but unfortunately, the food was so bad that I couldn't help it. It was a Delivery Order, and food was on time, so I can't even use that as an excuse for the poor quality.
Bao Buns were dry and broken, with none of the pillowy texture they are famous for. Pork that came with it was dry, chewy, and lacked flavor. Pad Thai Noodles, neither looked or tasted like Pad Thai. No sweet/saucy flavor, and they had literally added Chilly Powder to the Noodles, which tasted so out of place. I have never had such bad Pad Thai in my life.
Roti Canai was the only saving grace of this order, but only the Masamman Curry was good. Roti was not fluffy, and the portion was too small for almost $11
Good food
My favorite local thai spot
Don’t eat here unless you enjoy food poisoning.
Ate out here for my birthday tonight and ended up with horrible food poisoning. I see from other reviews that I’m not the only one to have this happen. Really disappointed. I’ve been up sick for hours.
Always come here with my family. Very good service. Excellent customer service. I tried something new that I didn’t like they changed it for me. With no problem I love it and I recommend it
Customer service sucks. Changed their menu. Now smaller portions with higher price
Used to be this intimate place where you can enjoy the food. Now a place that charges mandatory 18percent charge and gives below minimum customer service.
I have ordered online and the food was amazing I have brought a friend to the restaurant and we were treated like vip and yesterday I brought my sister we were treated like queens the owner is so nice and the staff amazing the food is so much you have food for the next day everyone needs to eat here and that Thai ice tea that was rwcommemded amazing Definitely telling everyone about it and thank you for being fantastic
Good local Thai place in the area. It's not a big place but has an outdoor sitting area, which is nice when the weather is pretty. The restaurant is clean and has a cozy atmosphere. The service is excellent (even when they are busy), and the food quality is consistent every time I dine here. This time, I ordered tom yum soup, pad thai, and pad nam prik-paow. Good as usual! 4.5 stars.
볶은 음식들이 드라이한 느낌보다 질은 느낌
I went for dinner with my girlfriend on Saturday night 1/21/2023. I ordered the Massaman curry, when I was done eating I knew something was wrong. A couple hours later i ended up with an 48 hour food poisoning.
Food is fresh and good
Foods are excellent with affordable prices. Staffs are nice and friendly. Their service was fast. The Thai iced tea is so good.
Service is extremely unpleasant:(
SERVICE WAS TRASH DO NOT COME HERE. THEY SHOULD CLOSE DOWN THIS RESTAURANT. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. My eyes CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED TODAY. TAKE A COURSE IN HOW TO TREAT CUSTOMERS. Very SAD AND EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED
My new favorite Thai restaurant 😋
FOOD IS INCREDIBLE. Service is on par. Outdoor cool seating area that has privacy and amazing food again lol. So good. I’ve eaten it like 10 days in a row at some times
Do not order from this place! Food is poor quality!!! I ordered once a red snapper, and it was terrible. I couldn’t risk getting into the hospital. I called them, and they told me they would give me credit. I thought ok, it happens. I called them today to place an order, and apparently, I only have a $15 credit. So, I paid almost $50 for a spoiled dinner and I got $15 credit. It’s a joke!
Respond to your reply: no one told me about bringing the fish back. I would’ve brought the spoiled fish back. Bad customer??? I just gave you $50 for nothing or better to say you stoled it. Enjoy. :)
They want you to pay highest tips even if you dont like their food or service!
Me gusta mucho el restaurante,es un lugar muy tranquilo y el servicio es muy bueno.
So far best Thai food I’ve tried, all my friends love when we got to eat there, prices are totally worthy, and they are fast, if you want a good, and chill spot to get dinner you should try pa de.
DO NOT EAT IN THAT RESTAURANT.
Took my wife for a date and that date turned into one of the worst nights in my life. Food is not fresh at all, and the service absolutely trash. I ended up getting food poisoning and spent the night in the hospital. I’m currently in the process of filing a lawsuit against them.
I’ve never seen such a rude staff and horrible customer service. I am not sure how they are still in business. The waitress was rolling her eyes when I had a question about the menu, and answering in a rude way. And that’s just the tip of the ice berg. Did not feel welcome at all. Never coming here again
Ordered from here last week and got food poisoning. It was the only instance where I ate outside of my house that whole week so there’s no doubt this was the culprit. Stay away unless you enjoy vomiting and diarrhea
We ordered a number of items here - both curries were watery, noodle dishes were mediocre but edible, and most tragic was the mango sticky rice - the rice was so old it was crunchy and the mango was the least ripe mango I’ve ever tried, the dish should not have been on the menu if they couldn’t source proper mango and make fresh rice. Needless to say, a lot of this food wound up in the trash and none went into the fridge.
We have been to Pa De (7 or 8 times in the past year for Dine in) but this time our server was super rude, the table was dirty and sticky, and there was dirt under the table (pic attached). Eventually when she got the check, she already added the gratuity of 18%, which is not customary and that too when the service and hospitality was below par, when I questioned her, she started heckling me by not letting me speak.
PS: the food is great by the way, 10/10 to the Chef! But overall 1 star, I could give less if there was an option to do so for spoiling my Friday evening dinner!
Amazing food! The mango Thai tea lemonade is delicious!
Good food, lovely ambience, amazing service. BYOB and they accommodated my friend's dog too.
Truly authentic Thai cuisine. After visiting Thailand, there was no difference in the taste and quality of the food.
We order from this place at least once a week. It’s pricey if you get delivery, but at least the entrees are all a great size, and you can split them or save for the next day. The restaurant is very accommodating with notes and they never mess up our order. The lemonades are to die for! Really great selection of drinks (the lychee Thai iced tea is a great alternative to traditional Thai tea if you are lactose intolerant like me). Love getting grilled chicken salad. Very fresh.
This place is excellent! One of my friends recommended Pa De, and I've been obsessed with it since. I've been to the restaurant a few times and have also ordered. Every time, the food is perfect.
I do feel like some dishes are better than others, but that is a matter of personal preference. For example, their massaman curry is excellent, while their pad kraprow is just okay. Notably delicious are their curry puffs and fried chicken dumplings.
Regardless, the food is always fresh, and when I get delivery, it is always in a timely fashion. Keep note - the place is small, so take out and delivery are usually the best option.
It's now one of my go-to take out places!
We have eaten here a few times (mainly the winter months). Food and service is always perfection! Today we had a craft of strawberry basil lemonade, mixed appetizer platter, chicken Massman curry and pad Thai. Everything tasted super fresh with generous portion sizes. They were pretty busy for the lunch hour, but food came quickly. There is also a beautiful outdoor patio.
Horrible experience- very kid unfriendly place- my kid (3) wanted to finish the last 2 pieces of his nuggets and they told us to leave. Will never order or come back. Hope it was worth losing a very lucrative customer. Meanwhile the restaurant next door was more than happy to accommodate.
Thanks for your reply- I will never spend any money at your establishment. You shouldn’t be in the hospitality business- go run a prison.
I use to come here in 2015/2016 and i use to love it here. I came to dinner with some friends and i cant believe how disappointed i was. I ordered a drink that i didnt like so i asked them to take it back and she told me that thats no longer allowed i need to take it togo. My pad Thai just wasn’t that good. My friend ordered the shrimp red curry and they gave her 3 shrimps in a huge bowl of curry. Im not coming back here
Chicken PaTai was pure perfection. Portion could have fed two people (but I finished it anyways) and the coconut water has actual large pieces of coconut. With super friendly staff and options to dine inside or outside in small or large groups you don't want to miss it if you are in the neighborhood.
Only Thai restaurant I will ever go to. I love their Tom yum noodle soup and their basil fried rice.
The owner is extremely nice and servers take their jobs seriously.
Everything so fresh , they are so kind here too , so welcoming , great Thai food , delicious
The service was quick when my husband and I arrived -which was great. We started off with the appetizers ( vegetable spring rolls & fried chicken wings) they were both delicious. We also had drinks the ( lychee Watermelon w/ mint ) which was absolutely delicious. My husband had the (Mango Lemonade Tea)which he didn't really like. On the other hand , for the entree I had the Chicken w/ veggies in ginger sauce with jasmine rice which was good. I will definitely be back.
very nice and cozy resturant, the food was well priced and tasty. For a resturant that was extremely busy the night. yhe service was amazing and great. highly recommended
Responding to Lachanee Scott’s review and to the owner.The first red flag was when the TAP water they served us spilled due to the rocky table they seated us at. I knew I should’ve left at that point! Because that was the first sign of red flag 🚩 Second the staff never checked in and they looked overworked. Third we bought four meals and appetizers THEY made the wrong meal extra spicy so we brought it to their attention and it was switched as it should be since it was their FAULT. Asking for them to fix the order was a big mistake because it tasted even worse and the vegetables for all the meals were VERY HARD and UNDERCOOKED we could not eat it .Our soup appetizer came at the end of the meal we thought they forgot about it and was surprised that it still came out.
Anyway we paid our $120 USD and on the way out we were chased by the manager demanding a tip. We told her the service was pour and the food was horrible and she continued to follow us out of the restaurant asking for a tip in front of people outside. She’s really desperate for a tip to help pay her servers who she seems to take advantage of and overwork. Horrible, I have never left a restaurant without tipping and worse have never been chased for a tip……….HORRIBLE……..HORRIBLE………..This was my story of the week how a manager chased us down over a tip….and shouted “Don’t come back here” and guess what ? We won’t because it was disgusting and so was her behavior!!!!!!!
I usually order Uber eat at this restaurant and some of the dishes are on point 👌 However, not at the restaurant!
The waitress is extremely rude and disrespect the customers.
- She asked “How were everything?” and I told her the salad and my friend’s fish dish is very salty.
- She immediately answered “but you are them all”.
I got annoyed, the dish is 3/4 full and I wasn’t asked for another dish. She asked “how were everything” first!!?!!! and I told her my experience. And she left, very rude! Also did not ask my friend about his dish as well. He touched the fish 2 spoons. 😂
5 mins later, she came back and asked my friend if he wanted to change another dish. My friend was super nice and he said doesn’t need to.
I’m ashamed because I invited them to this place! Never come back again!
BTW, my husband and my friends still left them 10% tips because we’re super nice!
NEVER COME BACK here!
I had a dinner with my family here. Every dish tasted great. Very friendly staff and excellent services. We got lychee iced tea, roti bread with chicken, pad kee naow, green curry, basil duck, a few nice appetizers. Again, everything was good. Strongly recommended! Will come again.
I'd give zero stars if I could. Terrible service and equally horrible food. Three of us dined here and we could not get through a quarter of the food, all left with a stomach ache that night. On top of that, the water that they used to make the drinks was so disgusting, no amount of honey or lime can cover that.
Instead of complaining, we paid for our food and left only to have the manager CHASE after us for a tip! We had to stay at the door explaining that we were not pleased with the food so we are not tipping. People passing probably thought we did not pay for our meal or something...
Her response after we spent $120 there for food we couldn't even stomach to eat was "Do not come back here".
Very filthy establishment through and through.
We live in Hoboken so we’ve only ever had delivery, but whenever we want Thai food this is where we order from. It’s by far the best in the area. I’ve tried numerous dishes and am never disappointed! Curries, salads, noodles are all delicious. And I love how they have Roti too
Top notch Thai food at affordable prices. Hidden gem in Edgewater. Service was awesome. Food was yummy and the prices were affordable. Definitely try their dessert, “Fried Icecream” as well. It hits the spot after a great Dinner. Will definitely be back.
Always soooo good!
Delicious
Pathetic service, arrogant staff, worst place in Edgewater to dine
I had the shrimp pad Thai it was soo good
Worst Thai cuisine beef salad I’ve ever had……. DRY BEEF …. Looks like at the end of the day remaining beef has no where else can be but my delivery at 9:30pm and they close at 10pm…. Such a disappointment …. Don’t order this dish… don’t go there to dine or order take our or delivery because it will ruin your mood totally.
I’m HUNDRY. My jaw hurts with this dry beef…
Not bad it was Average
Highly recommend this place for a good thai food experience.Good portions and staff is amicable.
The food is so good! Had the appetizer sampler, veg panang curry, chicken pad see maow & chicken basil fried rice. I’ve had Thai in jersey before and didn’t like it. This is the only Thai spot where I enjoyed every dish. Staff seemed hospitable.
Parking can be a challenge so I ordered to go. I think the trick is to wait for a spot. As I waited the short 20min for my food, 2 parking spots opened up. Definitely eating in someday soon!
Great job Pa De!!!
Delicious food and good service
Super casual place with fresh, scrumptious food. Have been going there for years. Hearty, flavorful soups and classic Thai cuisine. Space has garden that can be used during summer. Priceless
Consistently very good
Super yummy Thai food. For non veg items they don’t add too much veggies which is good for someone like me who likes meat more than veggies. The quality and taste of the food was authentic. Highly recommend this place
Decent ambience, great food and awesome service. Parking can be a little tricky but there's a lot a couple of blocks away so nothing unmanageable.
They always make a mistake with the order. I order vegetarian and they send me with egg, then they demand that I return the prior order - I've never had another restaurant ask me to return an order, they probably serve stale food so I would beware of the hygiene of the food. I order spicy they send me the most bland/spiceless food ever and the argue that the food is spicy and say "it's impossible" when I'm the one eating the food. They need to hire someone who can take the orders details properly. Horrible, horrible customer service!
They make delicious Thai food with perfect balance of seasoning. Pad Kraprow with shrimp is my favorite, but red curry is great too.
I expected a lot more before coming. The staffs were nice but the food was just mediocre. The Pad Thai I ordered was too sour, the green onion they put in my dish still had some roots on. The rice that came with the soup was dry (After all the good things you heard about how good Thai rice is, this one is a complete disappointment). The sticky rice with mango tasted strange with dry rice and sour crunchy mango on top. They totally gave Thai Food a bad name.
Best Thai food in town! Never fails (:
We have visited this location a few times and have always had a wonderful experience. Taste, Quality and Quantity-wise it’s always top notch. Never got disappointed.
Service was aww❤️yesterday was a Halloween and everyone dressed up in a costume and served us the food. We literally brought 8 couples including friends and family. And everyone loves it. We will 100% be back.
Please do try at this restaurant and you will never get disappointed.
Thanks for maintaining the food quality from past 5 years.
I can’t believe I just found this Thai place! I ordered the drunken noodle for delivery and it was honestly the best I have ever had! It arrived piping hot. Very flavorful and the perfect amount of spice. PA De Thai is my new go to for Thai food.
I’ve both eaten here and had it delivered, and it’s delicious both ways. One of the only places to actually have their spicy dishes be spicy. Never compromises on flavor. I love the curry puffs and pad kee mao (drunken noodle). Basil fried rice uses the same flavors and is equally amazing. They had a steak special last week that was also very very good. Staff are always excellent - they do tend to deliver dishes one at a time so give it a moment if you get one - the others will follow pretty quickly! Some guy lost a gasket because his date’s meal came 45 seconds after his - don’t be that guy. Your food is coming and it will be worth the wait.
I’ve been ordering from this place since past 2 years. Since I’ve moved to Weehawken I’ve been coming here a lot and this is the best comfort food I’ve found in this area.
Tip: try dining in, it tastes much better coming out fresh from the kitchen
