Great Thai food. Highly recommend.

Diner Review β„–3

Long running reliable and affordable local Thai place. Make sure you order delivery directly from them and tip! They’re one of the only places left in town who use their own drivers! The chef specials are good, try the fried fish filet or the Bangkok tofu, Thai hot if you can handle it.

Diner Review β„–4

My very favorite place for Thai food! Panang Curry Chicken, add vegetables, is so delicious! And I can’t place an order without adding crispy spring rolls!

Diner Review β„–5

Thai Top Ten 5 Stars!! I’ve been under the weather the past few days. I remembered my favorite Thai restaurant in RVA while in undergrad at VCU; I ordered the hot pot wonton soup for delivery via doordash and it was as perfect!

Diner Review β„–6

Really great food, huge portions, they can make most dishes vegan if you ask. Owned by a super kind family. Been going here for years and it never disappoints.

Some of the best Thai food. And their Thai hot actually is Thai hot!

Diner Review β„–10

I ordered take out after seeing the good reviews. I ordered the chicken steamed dumplings, chicken Tom yum soup, and pad Thai. The chicken dumplings had a bug cooked into the dough, and I didn’t find it until after eating more than half of them. I could not eat the Tom yum as the chicken tasted funky and tainted the rest of the soup. The beef in my pad Thai tasted like soap, so I could not eat that either. I’m very disappointed in my experience, especially after spending $30, and will not be ordering again.

Diner Review β„–11

I've been looking for pad woon sen for the last 9 months and Thai top ten has, without a doub, the BEST woon sen I've ever tasted. The curry sauce with the pot stickers also goes unfathomably crazy!! New favorite restaurant in Richmond.

Diner Review β„–12

When I’m not down in Richmond for school, I’m up in nova. The problem is the best Thai restaurants I’ve tried up here don’t beat Thai Top Ten despite being up to 2x the price. I’ve ordered takeout and then driven two hours just so my mom could try. Mom also approves.

Diner Review β„–13

On-spot Thai food in this town, confirmed by Thais! The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, perfect for Thai food lovers. The service is excellent, and the server took great care of us. All the Thai salads were delicious. If you want your food extra spicy, just ask them! 🌢️✨

Thurston, thank you for exceptional customer service. Haven’t had this kind of service in a while. Very welcoming, so attentive and genuinely friendly. I would come back just for him. The food is always good. Papaya salad is the best with banana spring rolls. Thank you again, Thurston. God bless you!

Picked up dinner from here for some company we had over from Rhode Island. So easy to order online, ready at the estimated time, and all the food was so delicious!! We got the spring rolls, noodles of the drunk w/ chicken, pad see ew w/ tofu, chicken pho, and chicken pad Thai. All dishes were excellent! πŸ™ŒπŸ» Our guests from RI loved it!! Would totally recommend if you’re craving Thai food!

The pho of good

Diner Review β„–32

Simply the best Thai food in the whole east coast, and I've tried them all in 10 different states. Check out the chef specials and original thai foods.

Diner Review β„–33

This is my favorite place to grab Thai, everything I’ve tried so far is delicious! If you’re struggling with what to order I’d suggest their money bags as an appetizer & musamum chicken curry.

Appetizers were great but the Penang Curry had to be the most bland I’ve ever had anywhere. It’s okay..

My favorite joint in RVA! The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Couldn't recommend this place enough.

Diner Review β„–47

Very good portion size and flavor.

Diner Review β„–48

This is the only Thai restaurant I’ve encountered so far that really stuck to their β€œThai hot” spice level. I was humbled and in pain but also impressed that they went that far. The food here is always so well spiced and the portions are huge for the price!

The best Thai food in town.

Diner Review β„–53

Popped in here before a VCU game. Had delicious entrees. The drunken noodles are some of the best we have had in Richmond. Basil fried rice was delicious. The beef pho broth is complex and well spiced. Not the typical clear broth of other Asian restaurants. Definitely will become a regular dining experience for us.

Diner Review β„–54

Diner Review β„–55

Diner Review β„–56

This has always been my favorite Thai restaurant. One main reason is the food tested the best. I have been coming here for many years and the food has always been consistent.
Please note that they do not have a lunch menu, the lunch can be expensive, but you get the same portion as dinner.
A few of our favorites that I would recommend are: Money Bags and Chicken Satay for appetizers; Thai Top Ten Fish Filet and Basil Duck from the Chef Specials; Kha Prow Moo Sab Mix Min Moo Krob under the Original Thai Food section; in the Curry section, you could never go wrong with the Red Curry, do not order the Amazing Thai, the Thai peanut sauce is too sweet and you cannot taste anything else in that dish; order the Noodle of the Drunk with flat noodles, you will love it.

Diner Review β„–57

I order pineapple fried rice with chicken And added extra shrimp. Never got the shrimp extra shrimp and they didn't put any vegetables only got 3 shrimp with my dinner . I call told them about it they said they couldn't do anything about it. I'll never order from them .

Diner Review β„–58

Delivering for Grubhub brought me into this Gem of a place. I walked in and noticed a gentleman obviously in need of some additional help/little extra loving enjoying a bowl of soup. I smiled and greeted him and proceeded to the counter for my customers order. I was immediately greeted with a smile by Sarah! What a sweet soul! I picked up my order and asked her if he dined there often. She told me β€œyes, he dines here almost daily and we cover his meals” WHAT A CLASS ACT?!

You just don’t see businesses like this anymore. Most of them treat the less fortunate/homeless like they are less than and as promised Sarah, here is my raving review and genuine THANK YOU for being so kind to not only that gentleman but also to me.

God bless you Sarah and Thai Top Ten in VCU!

Diner Review β„–59

Consistently great food, especially the Pad Thai. Prices are reasonable and service is friendly. It's on campus so street parking is hit or miss.

Diner Review β„–60

Love their veggie options! Amazing Thai entrΓ©e is truly amazing! Delightful peanut sauce πŸ˜‹ yummy overall! Highly recommend πŸ‘Œ

Diner Review β„–61

First time ordering from this restaurant last night. I got the pineapple fried rice. It could have been seasoned better and have fresh pineapples. Half way through eating there was a strand of black hair in my food. After that I was done and just threw it away. I was hoping my experience would have been better. I've been looking for a nice Thai food spot.

Diner Review β„–62

Very nice place and good quality Service! LOVE it here!

Diner Review β„–63

I've ordered delivery from Thai Top Ten maybe 30 times over the last few years, and the food is always brought piping hot, and quickly.

If you're vegan, they have great options, including tofu and mock duck (try it, it's great!). They have great pho, curry, stir frys, noodles, and specialty selections. As well, you can even order your food to the exact spiciness you'd like, from mild to absolutely thai hot (stick to American hot unless you're very adventurous).
Even the appetizers have a great and varied selection.

As well, the delivery is done in-house, so you're not paying for Grubhub or Ubereats markups. I appreciate that a lot, and the guy who delivers for them (there's only ever been one guy), is always a delight to see. Though perhaps I'm bias, every time I see him, he's bringing me delicious food!

I'm moving closer to their downtown location soon, and I'm genuinely excited that such a gem of a place will be in walking distance of my home. I'll definitely be one of their regulars, and you should too.

Diner Review β„–64

Yummy! Nowhere near as spicy as they say they are (on signs). I wouldn't recommend mild spice unless you like things essentially without flavor. Medium spice and up are the way to go. Kids are serving you, so you may need to walk up for a few things. I plan to dine here again. Spent $30 with tip. Bought: two entrees with water. Atmosphere is nice and comfortable. Very calm. Food comes hot! :)

Diner Review β„–65

Excellent Thai spot in the heart of Richmond and VCU. I would recommend.

Diner Review β„–66

Tasty food and excellent takeout portion size. I'll be back – thanks, y'all!

Diner Review β„–67

Diner Review β„–68

Always super quiet dining in. Great beer selection. The menu is a bit overwhelming but if you eat Thai often you'll know what to get. Some of the flavors are a bit muted which is why I took away a star. Staff is always super cool.

Diner Review β„–69

Very tasty, but like everything these day it's pricey.

Diner Review β„–70

Rad na! I love it. They serve it, and it's delicious.

Diner Review β„–71

Such tiny place with such big flavors. I used to live nearby so walked there to pick up Thai. They have good green curry

Diner Review β„–72

Diner Review β„–73

Food was ok

Diner Review β„–74

The massaman fried rice is awesome and you cant get it at any other Thai place in richmond (as far as I know, and I love all Thai in rva) so go try it! Also the dumplings that come in curry are a great deal, perfection.

Diner Review β„–75

Soup delicious, fried rice little oily, shrimp fried rice still had tails on them. Little pricey.

Diner Review β„–76

Excellent food and friendly staff. Definitely recommend.

Great spring rolls. Pad se ew was literally not pad se ew.

Diner Review β„–80

Great food

Diner Review β„–81

Sitting at this bar makes me fill less lonely, between the golden glitter counter top, YouTube travel shows playing on their TV, and literal children that are employed there

Diner Review β„–82

Yummy! I ordered the pepper steak stir fry and it was so good! Not sure what I'm going to get there again but I can't wait.

Diner Review β„–83

Diner Review β„–84

Always a delicious meal....eat here often! 10/10 hands down

Diner Review β„–85

That Shrimp & Crab fried rice is like crack. I had it all the time when I went to VCU & now I make routine trips into the city just for that whenever I can. Again, it's straight up addictive as a mf.

Diner Review β„–86

Roasted basil duck - As a duck fan it was just ok. Nothing to brag about. I think it should be more food for the price and after taxes it a whole $2 more. So like $18. Served with white rice and of course it'll be extra for fried rice . I just gave 3 stars just to be nice . To be honest nothing really had flavor but the duck was cooked well

Diner Review β„–87

Diner Review β„–88

This pho healed every problem I didn't even know I had. Came in for takeout with horrible sinus pressure snd a huge headache. Got back home and within 30 minutes I was feeling almost back to normal. 10/10. They also thought of everything. I was worried it wouldn’t come with like the little extra things but it did!!! So good. So glad it’s only 2 blocks away from my dorm. My new sick food

Diner Review β„–89

During dinner rush on a Saturday when other wait times in the area were crazy we decided to try this place. I’m sure our experience here was so much better than what we would have had if we were seated at ocharleys next door! My fiancΓ© had not had much exposure to Thai food and I’m so glad we picked Thai top ten to be his introduction. We ordered satay, drunken noodles, and chicken pad Thai and shared everything - have never had satay that delicious and juicy. Their peanut sauce is amazing and the cucumber salad even better. The noodles were huge portions and among the best I’ve ever had as well. Spicy beef, tender chicken. Fresh food! Service was friendly and reasonably fast! Thank you for making delicious food!

Just ordered via grubhub.
I got the Lemongrass noodle soup, American Hot + Scallops. My partner got Spicy Shrimp fried rice in Thai Hot.

"American hot" is pretty damn spicy. Food tastes yummy. I'll be getting medium Spicy next time, though!

Diner Review β„–101

I went here last night (5/20) and and ordered Pad See Eiw. I was in the Richmond area and went back home. I noticed there was no egg in my Pad See Eiw and that it was flavorless. I called the restaurant the next day and after complaining, he told me there is nothing he could do about it because they aren’t getting much business and have bills to pay. I am a student , I have bills to pay and I am working on a student budget! I don’t understand how my order gets messed up and I am told this?? The only reason I gave them 2 stars is because the cashier was a sweetheart!

Diner Review β„–102

I recently visited Thai top ten and let me just say, YUM! Price was very generous and the quality of the food was excellent. I am so happy thai top is back to their A-game. Kudos to the only server working so diligently and kindly! I will definitely be coming back.

Diner Review β„–103

Really great service and yummy food! We had the chicken pad thai. Would come hear again!

Diner Review β„–104

Diner Review β„–105

This place was 2-3$ cheaper than other Thai places and the portions were large. I got the Panang Curry and it was delicious and pleasantly spicy (I got the mild level of spice). Also the delivery was 10 minutes faster than the indicated delivery time. Will definitely get food from here again.

Diner Review β„–106

They started off great, you know how it goes, living off the good praises, then quality ,service drops. I will try again. Mighta been an off day.

They charge 50 more cents when you get thai tea with no ice. Doesn't seem fair cause I just don't want ice in winter time. I propose a solution: serve it in a smaller cup, and with a cup of ice on the side. Win win afaik. 5 star

Diner Review β„–149

Cheap yes, good no. I love Thai, love love love it. However, it was very basic and bland. I asked for medium.. (sign said it ran hot.) might as well have been a 1 on the scale. I’m sorry, but if you want pad Thai. Don’t go here. It’s also on the slimmer side of things versus seasoned.

Diner Review β„–150

Diner Review β„–151

I love little holes in the wall and this one will definitely get a return visit. The servers were really nice and the food was really good! It is hard to spot because there's a tree in front of it, but it definitely deserves recognition. I highly recommend eating here!

Diner Review β„–152

One of the most perfect Asian restaurants I have ever visited. The restaurant has style, the staff is diverse, and the menu is plentiful. So many different yet popular options to choose from and the prices are very surprising. The best part is they have a spice level to most of their food and all their levels perfectly cater to an individual persons preference.

Diner Review β„–153

I went here for the first time today. I've gone too VCU for years but never been. I got the Masama Curry Fried Rice, Mild with tofu and it was so good! The food was greasy but very flavorful and filling. I'm definitely planning on making it a regular lunch spot because I was so impressed. The servers also didn't mind explaining the dishes and allergen concerns which put me at ease. The Masama curry comes with peanuts but I was told they make the food in small batches so my food wouldn't have any on it. According to my stomach, this was true and there were no nuts in it, which is always a plus when you cant afford an epi pen

Diner Review β„–168

Diner Review β„–169

The food here isn't bad, but I asked for "American hot" and it was milder than "no spice" at any of the other Thai places I've been to in town. If you're scared of spice, try here. If you like Thai, there's many better options (with their own parking to boot).

There quality is dropping drastically. I ordered Tom ka soup w/ shrimp ($4.95) and Red Curry fried rice w/ chicken. Soup was watery no taste with 4 mushrooms cut in half with giant pieces of tomatoes and 3 pieces of shrimp. Fried rice was mushy and just wired. They get 2 stars for quantity though.
