Pad Tai with chicken. Not what I expected, absolutely delicious. I am on a business trip, the quality of their food makes me wish I came here more often, had them closer to home, making it real hard to return to the places near home. Tong Ta has raised the bar on what good food is.

Diner Review №3

So the good...Food was decent, about what you'd expect for a Thai restaurant in America, Pad Thai, Drunken noodles etc all standard fare. The bar service was good, we had a drink at the bar first before we sat down. So for the not so good ..This should have been a red flag, as on a Saturday night at 730pm the place was almost empty. We sat, food as explained service wasn't the greatest but wasn't terrible. Now for the part where we won't come back...The place closes at 930pm, but around 915, when we are still eating they got the vacuum out and were vacuuming the carpet, resetting all the silverware, clanking and then the piece de resistance, an alarm loudly blaring that went on and on and on. So to recap, food okay, service tolerable, atmosphere awful. Dine in at your own risk. We won't.

Pros: Food is decent but inconsistent. Nice bar. Cons: Service is lazy and sub par. Drafty with poor climate control. Unclean smell, gross bathroom. Better Thai options elsewhere.

First time customers, went last weekend with my mom and daughter. First impressions are the place is big and beautiful; very tastefully decorated and comfortable. The service was attentive and thorough, the food came out rather quickly. Purchased: papaya salad, fried tofu, fresh rolls, pad kee mow and eggplant with beef. Everything was extremely good and I especially loved the fresh rolls. Best I've ever had, big and fresh with two dipping sauces. My katsu-style chicken served with my drunken noodles was tender and crisp. We all enjoyed our time and our meal and will plan to go ahead sometime very soon. Very very good !

Diner Review №9

Most delicious Pad Thai in all of South County in my opinion. Welcoming and prompt service for both dine-in and take-out. I like to swing in during the day on-the-go, always a special and satisfying lunch.

I walked into a place a takeout order. The food was very good but the woman that took my order was not very attentive and didn't even bother taking my name before she started interacting with someone else.

Diner Review №13

Tried phoning in an order. Was told they were super busy and was hung up on. I frequent luk Thai which is less than three miles away, and just wanted to try another Thai place in the area. I’ll stick to my go to. Luk Thai has amazing food and service is always stellar. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.

Diner Review №14

I go to Thailand every year and with that said, this place is the most authentic and freshest we’ve found. My husband was also able to get Koh soi here that he missed dearly while we were in Thailand. He said it was nearly the same!
We’re both foodies and pretty picky with what we eat so with that said, we go here multiple times a month at this point. The service is so friendly, the food is consistent and the vibe is great!
Couldn’t say enough good things.

Diner Review №24

Went Valentine's night and was a little skeptical because it was quiet and plenty of tables. Well lots of ppl missed out! Food was delish, attention was great and restaurant was clean and good atmosphere. We had the fresh rolls which were good, but wish they had avocado. The yellow beef curry was really good and the chefs special green beans with beef was delicious! We will be back!

Very cozy new place, perfect for dinner after a movie. The food was very good, above expectations. The service was fast and courteous and the check was quite reasonable. Looks like a place we'll visit frequently in the future.

I have spent a lot of time in Thailand and I must say, every dish was delicious and truly authentic. After being so disappointed by others, this is a very special place and I will be returning next week. Let’s keep this one in business 🇹🇭

First time having Thai food. They were closing shortly after I got in so I felt hurried up

Diner Review №36

Great food, very friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. I really enjoyed our visit

Diner Review №37

Diner Review №38

I’m honestly so thrilled how good the food is here. Of course all the Thai dishes that are common in America are fantastic. But they also have surprised me with a fantastic Khao Soi as well as a stir fry holy basil (pad krapao) that have become my go-to orders.

Diner Review №39

Food and service was great, people sitting behind us were annoying.

Diner Review №40

Very delicious food.

Diner Review №41

Hands down the place to go to if you are looking for Thai cuisine! We ordered takeout online and it was very easy and food was ready when we arrived for pickup. Food was great and we even had leftovers!!

Diner Review №42

Delicious except for the Mayo on my salad. Ask for a different dressing unless you love Mayo.

Diner Review №43

We stopped here for a quick lunch on the way to the beach, Penang curry with shrimp is really delicious!

Diner Review №44

Beautiful restaurant and very sweet waitress.

We had dinner here Friday night. It was so good we went back Sunday night. Enough said BUT you also need to know the service is excellent and the decor is very nice. I had no idea how pretty it is or how large. You’d never guess from the outside. Enjoy!
Our servers both night were delightful.

We had a delicious dinner here. Definitely will go back! The price was reasonable also.

Diner Review №51

My favorite Thai restaurant in Wakefield, Tom Kha and Holy Basil is The Best and the service is very good 🩷

Diner Review №52

Good to experience that the new owners have kept the great quality and service from the previous establishment. My Holy basil dish was outstanding as well as Red and Massaman curry’s, as well as crispy tofu, tofu pad thai, pineapple friend rice and Tom Yum soup. Everything was delicious, first rate and I’ve eaten at a ton of Thai restaurants all across the US

Diner Review №53

Pork Gyoza is delicious!! Mai tais are amazing… you cannot go wrong with this place. 10/10 recommended. Ping is the best bartender!! Absolutely love this place! Recommending to everyone I know!

Diner Review №60

We ordered fresh rolls, Thai tea, shrimp pineapple rice, and chicken Thai fried rice. Food was delicious and service was prompt.

Diner Review №61

Diner Review №62

Tong TA is a staple place for us. Sometimes we order the Khao soi for takeout, or when family is in town we love going out there. Everything we’ve had is always tasty, from the pad Thai and drunken noodles, to the curries, fried rices or appetizers.
The staff are always welcoming, and very friendly, sometimes they get a little overwhelmed when the restaurant is filled but they always make a nice meal.

Diner Review №63

The best Thai restaurant in Rhode Island. Excellent fresh and inviting dishes. Plus a wide selection.

Diner Review №64

Unfortunately, this restaurant has gone downhill and appears to be struggling. On a recent weekend visit only two servers were tending to take out orders, the hostess station, the bar and the dining room combined. They struggled to serve everyone. The food was on the cold side and nothing special. The "seasonal" beer was a season behind.

Diner Review №65

The meal was ok at best. It tasted like it’s individual ingredients not the sum of them. I could throw some ingredients together myself. The Thai tea was good, it was a child sized portion for an adult sized price but good. Thanks for trying.

Diner Review №66

I hear this place is under new management , new owner! I’ve been to Thailand many times I love the food ! Ann who was our server was amazing, the food was outstanding I think it was one of the best meals of Thai food in the whole Rhode Island it was all fresh and delicious.

Diner Review №67

Great food, although a bit over salted. Excellent menu with all the traditional dishes. Friendly staff. Perfectly located for a meal after seeing a film at the cinema nearby.

Diner Review №68

The food was delicious and Authentic!! High quality and friendly staff.

Diner Review №69

Diner Review №70

Great food, great location, great service….we’ll definitely be going back

Diner Review №71

Ordered chicken wing (5 pieces) and fried rice for lunch…

First of all, a price of chicken wing on their menu is $8.95 but charged me $9.95 a price of fried rice is $12.95 on their online menu but charged me $16.95 for food not even half a container. Very disappointed.

Beware folks, don’t let these people

Diner Review №72

We love Tong-D!!! Can’t wait until they reopen! They always have quality, fresh ingredients and it’s always cooked well and tastes delicious.

Diner Review №73

Super disappointed with our take out order. The food was not freshly made. Crispy chicken was old and dried up. Was the first time we tried this place. For sure will be continuing to go to our other regular Thai take out instead of here.

Diner Review №74

one of the best thai food I’ve ever had!! ive been to Tong-D’s sister restaurant Heng a lot of times and South County definitely needs Tong-D here. Absolutely loved their tom yum chicken soup, that is definitely a must try! the pad-c-u with the crispy chicken was very well flavored. we also got the hot basil fried rice and I added pineapples to it, the basil was fresh and not overwhelming at all. everything was cooked to perfection. we got everything level 5 spiced and it was great!!

Diner Review №75

Diner Review №76

Great food with good price. Their rice is phenomenal.

Diner Review №77

Food is always great. Service is lacking.

Diner Review №78

haven't been around for a while and always enjoyed this place but despite having to get takeout on my latest visit it was absolutely 🔥

garlic choy, the scallion pancakes, egg noddle pad thai, garlic string beans, and tofu/veggies rice noodle dish were all phenomenal. the spring rolls were pretty decent but the rest was fantastic. support this local business, they aren't reducing quality in these like many other restaurants I've experienced during the pandemic. blessings

Diner Review №79

Love the food. Only issue is they never remember condiments or chopsticks in togo orders even when you ask for it.

Diner Review №80

Diner Review №81

Great food, good service, good value. Best Thai place in the area - glad this opened up

Diner Review №82

Spent about 80 bucks on take-out to realize no utensils were included.🤣 The Lo-mein was overcooked very mushy. I thought this was an upscale eatery. The Thai food in New Britain CT blows this place out the water.

Diner Review №83

Diner Review №84

Great Thai food, friendly staff

Diner Review №85

Ordered food for take out recently and the entire experience was excellent. Food was delicious and authentic. In spite of longer than expected waits due to an overabundance of take-out orders, the front-of-the-house staff swiftly managed the high demands with respect and professionalism. Great food and great service - what more can one ask for.

Diner Review №86

Great pad Thai! The chicken is fried in the dish (as it is explained on the menu) but I still enjoyed it a great deal

Diner Review №87

Their food is always delicious and refreshing taste of thai style food. I especially love their signature pad thai and their thai iced tea! Great place for dinner nights and good happy hour deals! 😊

Food was good but waiting 1/2 for it. Too long.

Diner Review №108

Diner Review №109

Friendly service. The place is very clean. We had the Spring roll the sauce was too sweet to my liking. The Pad Thai with shrimp had the same sweet sauce on it but the shrimp was perfectly cooked.
Wok, Beef, garlic choy with jasmine rice. The sauce was very plain no toasted garlic pepper sauce taste at all.
I will return to try the curry because of the atmosphere.

Great food and very clean environment. We were fortunate to get a table by simply walking in on New Year's Eve. The hostess was a tad overwhelmed but the rest of the staff made up for it. It's always a pleasant experience there.

Diner Review №162

Great happy hour specials before 6pm.

Diner Review №163

We love this place every time we go. It's a classy place with incredible food. I especially recommend their curry dishes. We like to go for occasional date nights since it's never been too crowded which gives us some privacy. They also do take out, but the atmosphere in the place is really nice and relaxing so I would suggest sit-down.

Diner Review №164

we go for happy hour 3-6 weekdays. it's awesome we get 2 cocktail 3 apps and get out of there for 40 bucks..that's dinner! staff very nice

So good. The prix fixe menu during lunch hours is ample and very reasonable.

Diner Review №167

Diner Review №168

Upscale Chinese restaurant. Fresh salad and veggies in their dishes. Great coconut rice and chicken with cashews. One of our favorite places. It was a bit loud and busy so it took a long time to get our check. We will definitely be going there again.
