This will always be my favorite Thai restaurant. There is very limited seating and no bathroom, but the food is so good. I’d probably recommend getting delivery/take out for these reason - definitely don’t come with a BIG party because it’s so small inside.
The mango sticky rice is one of the best desserts I’ve ever had and all of the dishes were great. My only suggestion is that the noodle dishes had a lot of meat, I would’ve preferred a more even ratio and noodles and meat. But the food here is amazing!
Amazing Thai food, lovely atmosphere, and kind service. My boyfriend and I came here for lunch and the service was fast and the food was delicious! Got the pad c-u and a noodle soup - so fresh, flavorful, and perfect texture! The Thai tea was also one of the best we had, it had a strong tea flavor which we loved. We’ll be back for sure!
This place is great! food is very authentic and delicious. One of the better Thai restaurants I have been to. Prices are normal, and everything is absolutely delicious! You can also control the spiciness level in most of the dishes (just ask for it to be less/more spicy). I Definitely recommend this place! They have been closed for a while due to COVID-19 but are open now. They are super clean and careful with the whole situations. Support local restaurants!!
Great place to eat. Food is affordable, especially at lunch. They give you a lot of food for a lunch portion as well as two small sides. The food itself is good, and I feel like it needs a bit more something to it, but overall, it's a great place to grab a bit to eat. Love the decor and staff was friendly.
This food is terrible, it’s definitely not Thai (perhaps someone saw a tutorial on YouTube for 10 minutes and thinks that this is Thai), awful quality though big quantity (perhaps that’s why they received so much positive feedback..). Terrible presentation, no taste, lacking ingredients they state in the menu. I am a bit in shock how much this food is inedible and awful. Just fyi - pad Thai is according to this restaurant just noodles with tomato sauce and chicken.
The Thai food here is very local and good.
Have been here a few times and will keep coming back! Service and food is excellent!!
Amazing service and great food! I love their lychee Thai ice tea and the pad Thai lunch combo is delicious! It comes with a salad and appetizer with lots of different options to choose from. I tried the shumai and pork gyoza, both very good! Super friendly staff. Highly recommend!
Since my favorite Thai restaurant shut down a few years ago… I couldn’t find any other place that makes amazing pad see ew til I found this restaurant! So yummy.
Awesome food and customer service
Wonderful food. In my opinion it's the best Thai food in the area! The owner is also very friendly! Highly recommend!
Super nice owner. I can tell she genuinely appreciates her customers and the food is also great. Definitely one of the better thai food restaurants in the area.
Amazing Thai food with Manhattan quality flavor and incredible service. Thank you - we can’t wait to be back
Owner is the nicest woman on the planet + her food is absolutely amazing! My go to spot.
Best Thai food in the Northern Valley
Very good
Authentic Thai food and good-sized portions. All of our food was delicious! What really stood out was the green curry, the best I've ever had. The food was hot and freshly prepared. Highly recommend!

simple place with really tasty food.
Hands down the best Thai food I have ever had! Don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed!
I got the Pork Belly Basil and Thai Iced Tea, and they were both fantastic. The food is authentic and high quality. The owner is also a very sweet lady. I’ll surely be back in the future!
Lovely place. Delicious food. Love the noodle dishes which is very customizable to your taste when ordering. My favorite is the pad see ew noodle with tofu medium spicy.
We found this amazing spot by mistake and so happy we did.. the food is always delicious and fresh and the owner is the nicest person, she’s always welcoming and accommodating. As a vegan the owner always ensures that my meals are just that.. vegan! After only the second visit she recognized us and made us feel like friends. I would recommend Chok Dee Thai to anyone looking for a casual yet delicious dining experience.
Delicious. Very small place. Very friendly staff! Prices are to high though.
Best Thai food in the area
The best green curry ever! Pad Thai is also great! Emmy is really friendly and kind, I feel always welcomed whenever I go!
Fantastic place with one of the best service I have ever experienced. It's a small mom and pop shop, and I've enjoyed every dish I ordered. Couldn't ask for a better local Thai place.
got the pad thai and it's good. let me tell you it is spicy! i got the hot thinking the spice level would be overplayed. i definitely struggled but the flavor is great
Its a small place but the food and service was excellent! I loved the Tom Yum soup!
The best Thai food in the area by far. I’ve been eating here for almost 10 years and it’s consistently delicious.
Good food
Decent Thai food in town.
Best Thai on this side of Arkansas.
This is now our family’s favorite restaurant if we can’t make it to sit there and enjoy the delicious food we will do take out and it’s never a disappointment. Emi is the most sweet and caring person ever! They have the best service ❤️
Fantastic food, even better service! Got the pad Thai, pad see ew, and boat noodle soup and they were all delicious with huge portions. Also got Thai iced tea which was the perfect ratio of sugar to tea which is rare (usually gets too sweet for me.) But what really stood out was how the lady helping me pick up my order was more than willing to help me carry my order out and even refused to accept a tip since we were only ordering take out! This mom and pop shop is a gem in the neighborhood and we will be sure to come again whenever we're back in the area.

Really good! Best Thai place around the area with a comfortable atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!
I didnt much care for the pad Thai I got from here. Was very fishy. Location is super cramped and theres nowhere to wait if your doing take out.
El menjar està bé, fet al moment i bò, preu correcte uns 15$ per plat.
I am so glad they survived the pandemic. Best thai food for miles; I order here at least once a month. also, the owners are really sweet :)
Very good food. especially very clean. Crab rolls with real crab meat

I like them for helping me branch out from ordering drunken noodles every time. They are really nice, and because of that I'm trying things I've never tried before and very grateful.
Great Hot n Soup soup! All their Curries are amazing
Amazing service!! Even better food!!
This food is terrible, it’s definitely not Thai (perhaps someone saw a tutorial on YouTube for 10 minutes and thinks that this is Thai), awful quality though big quantity (perhaps that’s why they received so much positive feedback..).

Wow my co-worker brought me here..
Food and service is amazing!! Price also very nice!!!! Loved noodle soup and fried rice. Thank you for the Thai ice tea:)
No I'm going to this place for thai food
Worst Thai place I've ever tried nationwide, absolutely substandard on every dish. We ordered 5 dishes for 4 people and neither of us could eat more than a couple bites. Tastes like old oil and lacking in flavor. We all enjoy Thai food regularly and have tried many places in the region and have this place a try for the first time, never again! It's unfortunate to have to leave such a review but it was honestly disappointing.
Very nice, fresh and authentic. Absolutely good!
Always fresh and good food. Device is friendly and respectful. Great Thai options including noodle soups.
Fantastic Thai food w/ a huge menu & super friendly owners. A local gem!!
Amazing Thai place! They are so so friendly, the food is cooked well, and the portions are generous! Definitely coming back!
Amazing experience, get sriracha fried rice. 10/10
Always delicious and fresh! My favorites are the chicken in garlic sauce and the chicken pad see ew! It should be called pad see YUM haha
Delicious thai flavour! I just wish they had included mushrooms in my tom yum vegetable soup as the menu promised--I was so looking forward to those and even asked to make sure that they had mushrooms. Everything was ready on time though and neatly packed 💚
Good Food
Very friendly staff
This place has great food and excellent service. If it's not to your spice level they do have hot sauces available on the side. The inside is nice and spacious with the staff following covid protocol. They offer friendly and fast service and are very welcoming and I will definitely come back to try their other menu items!
I would give 10 stars if I could! Deliicious food and amazing service. The lady that had our table was so great!
They serve pretty fast, food was hot and decent amount serving.
Excellent and will come back for sure!
My favorite go-to Thai restaurant during my lunch break. The owner is very nice and sweet and very receptive. Food is also great quality.
One of the best Thai food. Drunken Noodle, Papaya Salad and Street Thai Noodle are my favorite dishes!
I had ordered from here before. Food tonight wasn’t fresh. Papaya salad seemed like leftovers from lunch time. Rice that came with the curry looked like rice that are a few days old. (First hand experience- rice that i make at home looked like this after at least 2-3 days.) if it’s not that old, please get a new rice cooker!!
Pork belly dish had pork belly that was very dried up. Pork belly is so fatty, that this probably was cooked over and over to get this chewy.
I debated getting food from here vs Ammata kitchen. Should have gone to the other place. I understand that price have gone up everywhere, but quality should be there, especially since the portions became smaller and prices higher. Very disappointing meal that cost over $100.
Take out only , but really amazing Thai food. Flavorful and spicy
The food is great ~~~
We order from there every week! Emmy is the best.
Quality place, healthy food
Amazing food at quality place
There is nothing on this earth more delicious than their curry puffs.
Hands down best Thai food in this area.
I know that sounds crazy, about a small Thai restaurant in tiny Norwood/Northvale Bergen County. NJ but it is what I have found to be true. I particularly love their red curry, green curry, ginger salmon, masama curry, and fried tofu appetizer, but order anything and you probably won't be disappointed :)
Great local reat Thai cuisine, the food is simply delicious.
I tried their green curry, massaman curry, peanut chicken, they were all perfect.
In addition to that, they are really friendly and nice, it was a great dinner!
Note that now, during Covid, they are only available for pick ups so better be aware of it.
inconsistent. 1st time was really good. 2nd time ok. 3rd was really really bad.
I wish I discovered this restaurant sooner! The food tastes authentic and is delicious. The owner was very nice and gave a free spring roll. Will definitely order again!
This place is always reliable when I need fill my thai food cravings. The lady is also the sweetest. Definitely recommend to anyone!
Delicious food and exceptional hospitality
The Kao Soi Kai keeps us coming back. I don't know what it is but I have to have it once a week. It is so good. So creamy. It's like a big hug. We love it.
This is the best place you can have Thai food.
It was okay. Def not best Thai I’ve had and not very authentic. Noodles in khao soi weren’t right. Use red pepper flakes instead of chili’s for papaya salad (salad was good other wise!). Pad Thai lacked kick / flavor. Crab fried rice was a bright spot. Summer rolls needed mint.
One of the five places in the entire valley that my family orders takeout from. The food here is incredible and they're so nice!
Good food, friendly service
Good thai food. The tomyom soup, pad kee maw with levels of spice, pad see yew for those who don't like spice and the thai fried frice are something I would suggest.
good price, portion was good, good customer service. But Patai and fried rice taste was terrible. Hope it gets better.. ..
Not only is the food fresh and delicious the owner has to one of the nicest most appreciative people I have met!
Was so bad. Chicken was SO salty, pad thai tasteless, crab fried rice tasted rotten....never ever again.(not to mention, expensive)
Chok Dee is the absolute best price, quality and service especially during pandemic. ABSOLUTE BEST. Keep up the good work.
This place is great! food is very authentic and delicious. One of the better Thai restaurants I have been to. Prices are normal, and everything is absolutely delicious!

Consistently good Thai food made by people who genuinely seem to care about what they're making. That being said if you're looking for local delivery you're SOL. They do have Door Dash but of course that comes with a fee. If you're looking to eat there just beware there are a LOT of rules. No drinks of any kind. They even list them for you just in case you didn't get it. If you're used to splitting checks beware. No more than a two card split. Lastly I'm pretty sure they also have a max person per table rule. I've never eaten there but I suspect if you try to break the rules the woman who works the front room will mete out justice swiftly
amazing food and very fast attention
Great food here. Friendly atmosphere
Small thai restaurant but still serve pretty authentic food. Friendly staff with reasonable price.
Great Thai place. I come here often for lunch. Delicious food and great service!
great food
Small Thai restaurant on a plaza with parking. Good Thai food. No toilet.
Highly recommend this cozy place with great food. Owner is very attentive.
Just as I remembered it! Perfect! Haven't been here in awhile and everything tasted the same as it did a few years ago. They even remembered me! Will definitely be back again!
This place is wonderful my favorite plate is Sriracha fried rice and Thai street noodle soup. They definitely have to open more restaurants.
Just ok.
The food is absolutely delicious and owners are the kindest and most generous people. They are welcoming and frequently ask how we are and check in on how our meals are.
Very cute Thai Restaurant. Sweet owners, great food, great prices. One of my favorite local spots (coming from Closter). A little small for large groups but excellent for small to mid-size parties. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Small place but great taste! Lunch menu includes small side dishes, too. Server is friendly and recommended well for my daughter.
Good lunch deal to go, but no restroom for the customer
Good place for quick service. Not a fancy place but food was good. Definitely recommend a takeout than sit down . We had Sriracha fried rice and Thai street noodle soup. Both were good enough. It's an average place for Thai food for locals
They had such great service. The food tasted authentic and flavorful. Portions are reasonable for lunch and is very filling
Great find. Pad kee mao is delicious.
I LOVE Chok Dee!
I work in Northvale, so I frequent this Thai restaurant for lunch.
Online ordering is available which is super convenient for a quick pick up.
Service is usually pretty snappy, but the dine in space is very limited.
As for the food, one of my favorite things about this place is their ginger dressing; it is to die for! Lunch specials come with a small side garden salad and choice of appetizer like a spring roll or dumpling, etc. All app choices are great; you can't go wrong. Also the portions are spot on.
Lunch special options are great. My usual is the Pad See Ew and you can choose your protein and spice level.
If you enjoy Thai food, definitely give this place a try!
Best Thai in the area. Solid food and you won't be disappointed. I have only had takeout and would not go elsewhere.
Great Food
Clean, intimate place. Great food, service, and prices.
Good food
Delicious
My go to place for Thai food!
Be warned! This is not an upscale, classy restaurant! Also, to get to the restroom, you will need to walk around the building to the back (because you can't walk through the kitchen).
That all being said,... this IS a fantastic restaurant with fantastic food and an amazing owner who is always, I mean ALWAYS attending to customer needs. The owner is extremely nice and kind-spirited. On a hot day, she even brought out a fan and placed facing me to keep me cool. I mean if the food was bad here, I would probably still go occasionally just to support the owner.
Now.. The food... I have ordered about 35-40 different items off of their menu. None of items on the menu are bad, let alone, average. Every item on their menu is on friggin point! I have never been to a restaurant where I was impressed with every single thing I ordered. Even their plain house soup is great.
You MUST try their Sriracha Fried Rice!
You MUST try their Corn Fritters!
You MUST try their Crispy Duck!
This is a Thai Place and I haven't mentioned Pad Thai, why? Because they aren't a great Thai Restaurant,... They are a great Restaurant in general.
This place is highly, highly recommended.
Tiny restaurant but phenomenal food!
Fantastic food and nice owner
Amazing food, portions, prices, and service. Emy clearly puts love into get business!
amazing food four great prices. the Thai ribs are incredible.
Small place and they don't like more than a party of 4 but really great authentic Thai food and friendly staff. I suggest taking a to go order if you have a large party
Better than Pimaan in Emerson! Better tasting and quantity of food. It's just that it's a much small place. Sort of a whole in the wall. But really good food and portion sizes. Highly recommended.
we love the food and the service. very friendly staffs. we ordered from this restaurant average once per week. always satisfied our orders.
Friendly owner and a rare thai place in New Jersey. Rare because the food is always great and savory. I’m a picky eater but I’m always satisfied with their food :)
Great value for the price.
Really goodnthai food. Not to many Thai places in the area.
정말 맛있다.
Outstanding food and friendly owners. Highly recommended.
Great food and service~!
Nice food and service
Actually Mark Shaw. Food is excellent! Owners are super sweet. It's a home run whether you eat in or take out.

Best Thai restaurant in the area. Noodle are amazing. Curries are amazing. Lunch price are more amazing.
Amazing place, great food. One my favorites.
老板娘很热情
Authentic food, great customer service!!!
Very good authentic Thai place. Space is little cramped but they make ul with their awesome service. Drunken noodle and thai tea is awesome.
Went to this place with my brother for dinner. Very good food! Exceptional service. Accommodating and friendly.
Cozy atmosphere, great service, come early for lunch to make sure you get a table.
Nice food and service
Tasty, delicious food. Good portion size.
