Unassuming strip-mall BYOB dishing up Thai food favorites in a busy, colorful space; cash only.
Maybe I've been pampered by Thai restaurants in Manhattan, so this was sadly not what I expected. I ordered Tom Yum soup and Beef Pad Thai. The meat was weird, overcooked and tasteless. Sorry but nothing was good enough.
I have gone to this restaurant a few times for lunch. The food is decent but I can only give it four stars out of five as the chicken was very slightly overcooked but still pretty good. Every time I have gone there there is ample seating available and the parking lot is close by with ample spots available.
Food is small portions , very very high price and cash only ! Service was very very very bad. The Indian women who was our server , was not nice at all. I do not recommend them !!!!!
Best Thai food I ever had. Cute little place! I got drunken noodles with tofu and my boyfriend had the curry noodles with beef. Both were 10/10! Thai iced coffee was really good and very sweet. Lots of vegetarian options as well. It was quiet when we went and they definitely deserve way more business! Keep in mind this place is Cash only!

Always delicious.
All are good.

Food was delicious My only complaint would be that we were not informed that brown rice costs $3.5/bowl.
This is a great place to eat with family and friends. Food tastes great. Nice staff and great environment. 👍
Very small portion for take out . I felt like my meal was mostly rice. Also ginger chicken no ginger??? Meh tasting food. This restaurant used to be much better .
BYOB awesome food cheap prices cash only tho should take a star for that but the food makes up for it. Really fresh stuff

Great food great service. Good portions. Love this place, pad Thai is awesome
Growing up, this was my mom’s and eventually my favorite place to get Pad Thai. It is very different than how other places make it and is authentic and the best around in my opinion.
We love it here! Great Thai food. We always get take out, just be sure to bring cash! Our favorites are the massuman curry, spicy Thai fried rice, and pad Thai!
Love this place. I missed the basil beef so much while living in Virginia that I learned to make the dish. Now I may need to learn how to make their drunken noodle because the flavors were magnificent. Be advised, Cash Only but totally worth trying.
Delicious, authentic Thai food! This is the place to go if you are looking for a great Thai meal. Service is friendly and fast- great takeout options and the restaurant atmosphere is a mix of cozy and friendly. You can watch the chef cook if you’re by the counter- everything is cooked fresh. In a shopping center that’s a bit quiet but certainly worth trying!
Delicious food. Awful waitress‼️‼️‼️‼️Bad attitude. Sour puss. She should be in the back washing dishes, away from the patrons.
Blown away by this place. The food tastes fresh, healthy, and authentic, not overly creamy and great flavor. Best Thai food I’ve had! The outside doesn’t look like much but when you’re inside it’s a pleasant surprise. Highly recommend to eat in. Take out portions aren’t as big as the other local Thai place but you’re paying for quality here. Cash only as well.
Food comes out fast. Very authentic. Open kitchen, so you see the chef cooking... the guy is very pro. Tastes very good, not msg taste, just well controlled stir fry. 5 stars from this guy
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THAI GOURMET!
A hidden gem! I pulled up and from the outside I was hesitant, but the inside is nice, cute date or lunch spot. The FOOD, really surprised my taste buds. The Fried Tofu app was delicious served w some great sauce. The masaman curry and green curry were so good I can’t believe flavor profiles like that exist. My eyes lit up with the first bite, I will be back. &!The service was great.
It's more expensive than other Thai restaurants and the food is not really better.
Food was awful Watery soup no taste
Sorry but it was bad
Pad thai was dry and tasteless. I found hair in the bag containing my food. Turned me off completely. If you can't make a proper pad thai, you're not an authentic restaurant.
Have been eating at Thai Gourmet for many years and they never disappoint. The spicy fried rice is particularly good.
Pretty good food and friendly patron. I rated 4 as it used to be even better when it first started ... My red curry, though delicious, was short on sauce.
Best Thai food around. You have to try this place. You can bring your own Wine.
Love this place! Great authentic Thai food! Try the basil chicken or curry puffs! So good. It's byob and cash only.
Pad Thai prepared too hastily and spices lumped up in one spot . The house salad Duck were excellent . Wouldn’t rush back for the price .
This has become our go-to place for those times when we can’t decide what’s for dinner. It’s nothing fancy, but it is welcoming and the food is always wonderful. My favorite is the chicken cashew which I’ve gotten each and every time but my husband has tried several other options and enjoyed them all.
I went here with a group. I had beef pad Thai. It was very dry. Our server barely spoke. We will not be back.
Good prices and delicious food.
*CASH ONLY*
Hawaiian fried rice was very good. Flavorful. Curry puffs and cucumber salad were delicious. Chicken with plum sauce so good. Crunchy with a sweet sauce. Coconut custard with black rice was so good! Sweet. Yummy texture.
My fav Thai spot ever. One of my fav food spots on LI. Get the chicken mango curry. And put the peanut sauce on everything.
Great service and the food was very good. You can taste the fresh ingredients in everything. The owner was the nicest person I’ve met.
Excellent! They never disappoint! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
The food here is so good, it makes you grateful to be alive.
Absolutely incredible Thai food! It’s a small operation but very efficient. The customer service was excellent!!! Will absolutely bring my family on a regular basis!
Don't come here; eat somewhere else. I feel like most of these reviews are fake because I expected much better.
$18 for an extremely small portion of Panang curry (literally more rice than curry), tasted average, and they only take cash (and we all know why).
I have had much better Panang curry for $13 that is literally double the volume of curry, and they accept credit card because they pay all their taxes (an assumption, but seriously we all know why it's cash only here).
So delicious. Love all of their chicken dishes and their curries especially the mango curry.
The food here is next level. It’s so delicious! Been coming here for years and have never been disappointed.
Food is amazing, mistakenly went to their neighbor and competitors and was sincerely disappointed.
Let me tell you... this food was DELISH! I felt like I was eating dinner in someone's house...the food was made to order right before my very eyes. The Hawaiian fried rice was amazing!!! Sometimes pineapples aren't very sweet, and they can ruin a good meal...but not in this case! Sweet and savory!
The food is delicious
I’ve had Thai food at several restaurants across NY and MI, and this is one of my top 5 so far. Best so far on LI. Perfectly spicy, super fresh, and great texture. I got the drunken noodle and had the fried spring rolls, both extremely tasty! Great service and nice family owned atmosphere too. You can see the chefs working from the dining area.
Authentic and delicious Thai cuisine
Had a wonderful meal there with my parents. Veggies were fresh, tofu was good and the sauce was on point. Yum!
Best Thai food around. They also are able to make gluten free food which is amazing!! The Pad Thai (I have it with tofu) is delicious. Their fried rice is the best around. The red, green, peanut and masaman curries are so good too! Top off any of your meals with their Thai iced tea. The portions are large, makes excellent left-overs, re-heats well.
Their food is very authentic, flavorful, & doesn't hold back on the spice which I really appreciate. One of my favorite Thai places! Just a heads up, it is cash only.
Very good food I got shrimp with mango curry was a lovely dish my husband loved his duck!It is casual atmosphere and service.Cash only byob.Reasonable prices I will be a regular.
I’ve been going here since I was a kid. The cook that I call “mama” is truly one of a kind and all of her heart goes into her amazing food. Get a taste of Thailand and so much more when eating here.
Delicious Thai food! We loved it. Nice staff and great food :)
We get takeout from here frequently and it's always delicious. Cash only.
We have been coming here for years, hands down the best Thai food I have had on the East coast. We hadn't been here for more than 2 years and tonight we were giddy, it was that good! Prices fair and the food is exceptional. Big plus, BYOB & a Heads up, cash only.
Delicious ThaI food, a big plus is BYOB.
Always fresh and authentic!
Delicious
Love Thai Gourmet. Food is always very good. Been going there for many years now. Cash only! So be prepared for that.
Massaman curry with crispy duck is AMAZING.
No taste
Muy buen lugar
Most authentic Thai food! Place let's you bring your own wine bottle which is very cool! Cash only though
Good but not the best
Just move in this town.
All my family tryed Pad Thai dishes and it was ok, ..everyone said just ok.
Reason I left two stars instead of three is,
it seems all over priced.
Amazing thai food in the area - really worth the try! Veggie pad thai is on point!!!
Staff is very friendly, however the food was unbearable. I had ordered the shrimp with garden vegetables entree and was immediately concerned with the scent of the dinner. Imagine yourself during the hottest of summer days walking through a barn filled with horse, goat, pig and dung gracing the inside of your nostrils... that is what my meal smelled like . I am led to believe that's a result of rotten shrimp, which by the way were not tail-less but dumped onto the plate. This establishment has ruined thai food for me.
(Note: CASH ONLY, and BYOB if you want to have an alcohol drink). I've been eating Thai food for over 35 years, and first was introduced to Thai food from a Thai family that I know, so I've become familiar with what authentic Thai food is. This place is the real deal. The Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, Spicy Basil Vegetable dish, the Vegetable Dumplings and the Summer Roll are all awesome! The peanut sauce is the best we've ever had. The chef is visible behind the counter, doing her magic. The best Thai food around, hands down. Note: If you go on a weekend night between 6pm and 8 pm, be prepared to wait as there usually is only 1 woman waiting tables, that's it. We're lucky to have such an awesome Thai restaurant around.
This place is the best place for pad Thai that I have ever been to. Every time that I come here the ladies that work there always greet me with open arms. They accommodate Gluten free dining excellently.
Been a staple for good Thai cuisine for many years in the terryville pj area for many years. The competition just doesn’t cut it. All massaman items are really good. BYOB and save money.
I've gone to this restaurant since I was a little kid. It's fantastic and I love the food.
Update: Still going here, I love this restaurant so much! It is Cash Only now, but that doesn't bother me at all, I hope this place stays open forever!
Delicious!
I would be rating this a 5 if they had more effective waiters lol. They are nice and the best Thai I’ve EVER had, seriously the best! I’m so glad this place exist, the chef every time I go is an old Thai woman. With every bite you taste the authenticity in the dish! It’s like the old lady poured her heart into every dish! 😍 I hope they stay in business forever.
Great food for 20 years!!
Excellent Thai food.
had dinner there Sat. 10/18/19. Tom Yum soup was so-So, too sour and weak on other flavours, whereas the real thing is supposed to be a richly flavored broth, with a lot of solids like shrimp, veggies etc. Appetizer of 4 pork and shrimp dumplings was mostly pork with a bit of shrimp mixed it but the pork was fresh and of good flavor, i recommend this dish. Chicken sate appetizer was no good, the chicken had a strong unpleasant flavor and the peanut sauce didn’t taste of peanuts at all. Friend had duck, said it was on the tough side. Low prices though.
All around good. BYOB
This was my first time at this establishment and will be my last. My rice was BURNT!! the chicken dish had no flavor my daughter couldn't even finish her shrimp dish, I had to get McDonald's just to get the taste out of my mouth and now I have heart burn . . 1 star is being generous
I often go there for takeout and always order Chicken Pad Thai, and love it. Great unassuming nook !
Great food, great staff!
Delicious!!
Delicious. Duck and squid are divine
Very good
Cash only, had to pay ATM fees to pay bill
I’ve tried a lot of Thai restaurants on this island, and nothing compares to Thai gourmet. Literally the best Thai food I have ever had. It gets extremely busy during dinner, but it is always worth the wait. Cash only, don’t forget! And BYOB. The restaurant is conveniently located across the street from a wine and liquor store, and there is an atm a few doors down.
Great food and lots of gluten free options. It's not clear what is gluten free in the menu though, but they knew right away.
As a Viet Nam veteran I was dubious about going.
True Vietnamese food is a combination of French and Asian.
Not for me
very good food. horrible service
Really good food. The people are really nice and very welcoming.
Best Thai food Ive had!
The food is always fresh and tastes like real traditional Thailand cuisine
Great and very reasonable!
Very fresh and well seasoned food. Very consistent. Be aware it is cash only.
Food is average. Customer service is not bad but they can improve on customer service. I felt like they're rushing their dishes. There's a open kitchen I did not like it. I was sitting towards the back of the restaurant and I could see their whole kitchen. Later realized I'm even sitting closer to their restrooms. Decors are nice but I wasn't their to see decors, I was expecting quality and great customer service which I did not receive. Me and my husband were planning to go to the movie and we missed it because they only take cash and we didn't know that. So my husband had to drive to an ATM and get the money. By the time he arrived it was too late for the movie. It was such a hassle for us. It's not very convenient when they don't accept cards and take cash only. It was our first and last visit to this place. There are better Thai restaurants on Long Island.
I've been eating here for over a decade now, and this place never misses a beat. The food is always delicious, good service, and has a cozy atmosphere. They only accept cash, but it's reasonable priced so no big deal. No alcohol, but they let you bring your own. Great place.
I have loved this place ever since the first time I ate there 8yrs ago. Everything is fresh and delicious as well as authentic. I highly recommend this place if you love Thai!
Very tasty!I love their Pat thai!
Excellent!!
Food is excellent and it's BYOB! Can't beat that.
Best Thai food around
Been going for years. Best Thai food around!
Soooo yummy! Best Thai in the area♡♡
Like the other reviews we have been going here for years and always loved the food. Consistently good. It will obviously be busy around weekends, we order pickup if we are ordering these at these times.
My wife and I go here frequently and thet are consistently very good every time. Also love the Thai iced tea.
Great food and good value!!
I will always have to say that this is the best Thai food restaurant I have ever been too.
The BEST authentic Thai around. I've moved away from the area but will always come back to have this Thai food.
They certainly got the "gourmet" part down. The meal was exemplary.
We have been going for twenty years and love the place. Artie's sister had been cooking for the last few years. I think she's even a better cook than him and he was the best. Appetizers are fantastic try the fried squid their larb gai and their dumplings (yum). We love this place. Bring your own drinks and enjoy yourself. You can't go wrong at this place.
They have the best Thai food on Long Island!! I love this place so much; everything on the menu is fantastic and authentic.
Our favorite Thai restaurant. Love the BYOB. Very friendly service.
the best Thai on long Island Period.
Been here many times and the food is always fresh and delicious. Service is friendly and fast. Byob is a bonus!
Our favorite Thai restaurant. Always an excellent meal.
The decor was nice and the service was very quick. The spring rolls were delicious and fresh. The pad Thai and drunken noodles were amazing.
Best Thai place around. I've taken people here who don't like Thai and they loved it. Cash only and BYOB
In my opinion, this place has excellent Thai food. They're willing to serve whole fish, head and all! The sauces are not overly sweet/ syrupy.
This place is a gem and my favorite thai food restaurant. It's clean and has an open kitchen. Cash only and BYOB
The food here is really delicious and that means alot coming from me because I dont even like Thai food too much. The staff is really friendly and its reasonably priced. Definitely recommend eating here. I dont know why someone would say there are rats here Ive been eating here for very long and its always really clean and there's great service.
Nowhere near authentic Thai food.
Okay Thai place. The decor attempts to hide that the location was previously constructed to be something else, like a bar. My sister's appetizer was forgotten and while my mother's "coconut chicken soup" was out standing, everything else was just okay.
