    Drunken Noodles and Green Curry with Thailand IcedTea
    Syed Adnan S.

    The restaurant is owned and run by a Muslim Family from Thailand. Having spent time in Thailand, Bangkok we are familiar with the Authentic Taste and this Restaurant cones close to providing the taste of Eating in Thailand. We ordered Tom Yum soup with Shrimps, the soup was decent however it included only 3 pieces of shrimps which we find it to be "stingy"! The Green Curry with Chicken was awesome !!! Hands down gives you an Authentic taste of Thailand Green Curry ... Thailand Iced Tea was alright, could have been better. Maybe less ice, next time I will definitely try lychee Ice Tea. Drunken Noodles with chicken was good but not great. The Service was Excellent, the chef came to ask us how we liked the food. She was really nice :) We love it that it's a family owned business and they are able to provide you with a Taste of Thailand :) We are glad we went and looking fwd to enjoying other dishes.

    We had the following at Amina's - Thai iced tea (good) -wings (good) -lollipop chicken (good) -fried rice (ok) -half chicken (ok) -coconut sticky rice with mango (good - my favorite dessert) Overall the food is decent. I would definitely come back.

    The food is great and so is the environment! Very tasteful and filling. The only down side to this restaurant now is that they changed their policy to cash only which is hard nowadays and the service is a bit on the slower side.

    Chill chicken. Comes with a side of rice
    Sarah K.

    SUCH a great place. Clean, cute decorations and its spacious enough. The service was great- the chef brought out some of the dishes to us since it wasn't so busy- such a nice touch! The lollipop chicken is always on point. They have a variety of options (although their lunch menu is a bit limited). We ordered the beef drunken noodles (10/10!!) and the red pepper fried rice with chicken. It wasn't as flavorful, will be ordering a different kind next time. Highly recommend, prices are more than fair (about $10/entree and the portions are generous), cute setting, great experience! Update: this place is ALWAYS a winner. The food always comes fast and the staff is so courteous and nice. And the food ALWAYS tastes great. My favorite Thai restaurant!!

    Chicken lollipop that actually was shrimp
    C B.

    They tried to kill me !. I ordered their version of a sampler .. it looked great and then I noticed their chicken lollipop was replaced with some kind of shrimp roll and I have severe shellfish allergies. I had to throw the whole thing away so my lunch consisted of a thai iced tea which was good and air . I was told the wings were good but qas too scared to eat anything after seeing such carelessness

    I've had food from Amina delivered to my apartment and most recently ate at the restaurant. I think the food and service is pretty good. Warning: their food is very spicy. I ordered the Drunken Noodle and once asked for the Pad Thai spicy. Wowsers... I like spicy food, but this is a little out of control. Now I ask for it mild, and on occasion I get it spicy. The shrimp appetizer are pretty good too. The spring rolls are ok. As for some of the other reviews, I think reviewing this place based on their delivery guy is pretty unfair. I've had different delivery guys from Amina show up at my door and I haven't had an issue with any of them. If I did, it doesn't take away the fact that the food is delicious.

    Thai iced Tea with Lychee is amazing. Lunch serving was descent. Would def go back. Mango Avacado Salad was perfection

    Worst thai restaurant, complete rip off, tiny serving size, not tasty, $$$ expensive
    Imran A.

    Worst thai food ever , ripoff. Charged 45 for a tiny serving of fried rice and 4 dumplings.

My mother ordered the chicken noodle soup with chicken broth, but it was disappointingly flavorless. Even worse, the chicken was incredibly tough. I ordered the Tom Yum noodle soup and, despite having other protein options, chose the chicken because the photo made it look delicious. Boy, was that a mistake. The chicken in my dish wasn't quite as tough as my mother's, likely because the meat was added afterward rather than cooked in the broth from the start. Still, it was far from tender. To their credit, they were extremely generous with the portion of meat, but my mother's chicken was tough as nails. I'm giving this place three stars because I genuinely think our choices didn't showcase the restaurant at its best. A couple of days later, I ordered the duck salad and drunken noodles for takeout, and both dishes were actually quite good. Based on that experience, I'd definitely be willing to give them another try and explore more of the menu.

There was a generous assortment of hot foods including garlic fried rice (so flavorful!), fried eggs, chicken nuggets and fries, tom yum soup, fried fish and shrimp, and chicken wings, among others. The main buffet area has a variety of veggies, fish and lobster balls, noodles, pork, seafood, chicken, and beef dishes, as well as a sauce and utensils bar. They have an amazing desserts section as well with shaved ice, smores, cake slices, and mango sticky rice (I believe this is seasonal). Service was fantastic as they kept coming by to refill our water, broth, and change out our grill. We were on the waitlist for an hour before getting a table, but it was well worth it (and I understand why there's always a line to get in here). We will definitely be returning!

The neighborhood is quite diverse with the types of stores and cuisines for the restaurants in the area so I was not sure if it would be authentic Thai food or not. The restaurant is located on a big street where several bus lines run, but it is very easy to find parking in the residential areas nearby. I came on a Tuesday evening and was able to find free parking directly in front after 7 pm. The location is Oakland Gardens which is a perfect in between Fresh Meadows and Bayside area. My friend and I decided to come here before our movie at AMC theatres. The place is quite small and they do accept reservations so I highly recommend making one. Amongst the 6 of us, we shared 4 appetizers and we each got our own entrees. It was the perfect amount of food. For appetizers, we ordered the zaab Chicken wings (4 pieces), chicken skewers (4 sticks), curry puff (3 pieces), and the fried calamari. The zaab Chicken wings are a perfect Thai Chile lime dried rub that is so delicious! I was reluctant to order the chicken skewers, but my friend really wanted to try. I was shocked! It was on par with my favorite chicken Satay from my favorite Malay restaurant. Perfectly tender with the perfect peanut dipping sauce. The curry puff is very good as well with a perfect amount of curry spice and potatoes filling. The fried calamari was decent - no complaints! As for entrees, we all ordered something a bit different. I was in between 4 different entrees and I'm glad my friends ended up ordering some of it so I got to try. The pad Thai, pad see ew, and crab fried rice are standard with full flavors. The basil fried rice was very smokey and good. The tom yum Noodle Soup is also very flavorful with lots of char Siew type of meat and ramen type noodle. Lastly, we were all pretty stuffed but we wanted to try the mango sticky rice so we shared amongst the 6 of us. It is a seasonal item (usually summer) and the rice comes in a beautiful butterfly pea purple-blue color. The mangoes are perfectly riped with a rice crunch and coconut drizzle. It was so good! And forgot to mention - we did order the Thai iced tea and it met my expectations (especially when I asked for less milk!) The Thai iced coffee has an interesting chocolatey after taste to it. My friends liked that it was strong. Would definitely be back if I'm craving some Thai Food!

    Great service, decent food, and cute interior…read more We orderer the calamari and the papaya salad as appetizers. Relatively small portion size for this area.
