    Pad Thai
    Liz N.

    Love the shrimp pad Thai. Flavorful and good portion. Staff is friendly and attentive and decor was good. Knocked off a star because our card was charged to the wrong order but was fixed right away.

    Prik Prow (Roasted Chili Paste)
    Lauren T.

    We loved this place! We ordered takeout and the food was made quickly, but everything was still piping hot when we picked it up. The crispy chicken with noodles was delicious, the berry wings had an amazing sauce, and the prik prow chicken was packed with flavor. We were a little underwhelmed by the crying tiger steak since it's supposed to be one of the standout dishes on the menu. Overall, the prices were very reasonable and we'd definitely order from here again!

    Tom yum hot pot
    Marni M.

    My friends and I showed up on a Friday night. There was already a line of people waiting for a table. Fortunately, we were able to grab one of the last ones by the window. Parking is a little tough, but there should be enough street parking spots available. We shared a variety of items, including Spring Rolls, Panang Curry with Short Ribs (GF), Chicken wings, Tom kha soup hot pot, Roti with Green Curry, Chicken Satay, Pad Thai with chicken. The dishes that stood out were the panang curry, chicken wings, and green curry. The panang was great for the depth of flavor and tender short ribs. Wings were lightly crispy and moist. Green curry was rich and creamy. We were most disappointed by the tom kha which was very watery and not as creamy or define in flavor as we were hoping. Overall, we had a very good experience. And the staff were very friendly and accommodating. All of the dishes came out in a timely manner with great presentations. Would come here again and try some other many other dishes. Very beautiful and comfortable environment to be in.

    This is my favorite spot to order Thai food from. I've only ever gotten delivery but it's always packaged great and stays warm. My go to order is the drunken noodles with crispy chicken, and a side of crab rangoons! Would love to visit and eat in soon.

    Traveling from Texas and stopped in for lunch. Crying Thaiger Curry was served quickly and delicious. Fresh ingredients and excellent service. Decanter of water was a nice touch with a beverage selection.

    Whoa, this place is great! My friend and I split the grilled pork cheek app, Penang beef short rib entree and rice noodle with shrimp and pork belly clay pot. It was all so, so good. The clay pot noodles were unlike any other Thai dish I've had before - there was a smokiness that paired so nicely with the slightly sweet profile. And the curry was both rich and well balanced. The short rib was cooked perfectly. The pork cheek was perhaps my least favorite out of the three. I think this was just a personal preference for the texture of the cut. But the flavors were great and I also appreciated the fact that it came with a good serving of vegetables. The service was also really friendly and attentive. Overall, definitely a 5 star spot. I'd definitely go back!

    One of my favorite Thai places! The food is incredible especially the meat dishes. Make sure you save room for the dessert- the mango sticky rice was to die for!

    Kua Gai Noodle
    Monica L.

    Nice interior! We were seated immediately on a week night. Food came quickly too Good portion and tasty food! The kua gui noodles were perfect texture and chicken was tender. Comes with yummy sauce and in cool pot. Couldn't finish! Was maybe a bit oily but other than that enjoyable meal for the price! Also free shrimp chips!

    Crying Ribeye - must order! So tender and juicy
    Kasey H.

    Tried out this Thai spot for lunch on a Sunday. There were plenty of tables available and the interior is well decorated. We ordered multiple dishes to share. The Crying Thaiger Curry was hearty with just a touch of spice, although the sticky rice we ordered on the side was quite dry. The spicy basil pad Thai was much saucier than traditional pad Thai. Crispy chicken was a good protein complement for this dish to add some textural crunch. Our favorite hands down was the Crying Ribeye! Tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked, especially with the tangy, savory dipping sauce on the side. We would definitely order this dish again. The mango sticky rice was also superb, the sticky rice in this dish was moist (unlike the side of sticky rice that came with our curry), the mangos were fresh, and the crispy Rice Krispies added a fun pop each bite. There were plenty of street parking spots nearby which was a plus. There were a few flies that kept disturbing us during our meal, but overall we had a great experience.

    Quail Eggs (Khai Krok)
    Joy Q.

    Omg the food was as good as I remembered from several years ago and this is still tbe best Thai food I've ever had in the states!! Must-have: Thai tea Crying rib eye Roti bread with green curry Panang short ribs Amazing food. Everyone was quiet eating because it's so delicious

    Tom yum, pork skewers w/ sticky rice, chive dumplings, coconut custard
    Katherine V.

    I will start off by saying I usually hate thai food. I have nothing against it, I just don't like that most dishes are super sweet or super spicy or super oily. But everyone I hang with seems to love thai food so I'm always willing to try it again until I find what I like. Well y'all, I found it. I live no where near crying thaiger but I will drive here if I crave it. Food - the chive dumplings and bbq pork skewers (with the sticky rice, ALWAYS add the sticky rice!) are a great "appa-tease" to get your stomach growling. Heck, I'd eat the pork skewers and sticky rice by itself as a meal -and not share- it . Tom yum soup with some rice noodles is usually my go to since I usually can't find thai food I like. Their Tom yum is no joke. I took one sip and had to drink some water to cool down the spicy burn. But also my fault for not mixing the soup before sipping. Nice and spicy, not sweet, sour but not too sour, got a depth of flavor to it, and seasons the rice noodles I dipped into it very well! My sister got the kra pow with minced chicken. She said it was well seasoned and really good. Our friend got prik pow(?) Sautéed chicken with veggies tossed in a chili sauce - looked delicious too! I'd say flavor and quality is certainly a strength at this place. Service was a little slow. We ordered takeout and it was estimated to be 30 min. We came about 45 min in and still had to wait for a solid 10 min to get the order. I will say though, the food was piping hot when we got home. The house was packed but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Atmosphere had a very homey feel. Thai knick knacks on a shelf split the room in to to provide more intimate feel. Was very clean and organized. Only downside to this location is parking is tough so takeout might be my thing!

    Crying Wings
    Shaun L.

    Great little Thai spot in Malden. It's not your standard Thai shop. It has some unique items both on the food and drink menus. Since it was lunch I didn't indulge in the sauce but I made up for it with my stomach. We started with the crying wings and the crispy chive cake. The crying wing seasoning was interesting, a little salty spicy and a dry citrus tang. The crispy chive cake was similar to a scallion pancake batter but with chives cut into cubes and fried so every bite has a nice crunch but it's moist on the inside. I don't care for pad Thai because I'm often disappointed, but it was so good wifey was considering ordering one to go for dinner later! A good size restaurant, so getting a table wasn't an issue. If you can't find street parking, there is a parking lot across the street behind the old dockside, maybe Floramo's? Behind there look for the 1 or 2 hour parking signs.

    Duck

    This was our first time trying this restaurant after seeing it pop up on my Yelp timeline, and I really enjoyed the food. The prices were really reasonable, so we tried multiple dishes and most didn't disappoint. There were many gluten free options, and I really appreciate that GF options and other dietary restrictions were clearly marked when ordering online and it was clear what foods could be modified for allergies. I really appreciate that effort, and that's one reason I will definitely visit again. The duck skewers was really good and my favorite was the pineapple fried rice, which was so good. The added duck and pork were really good too- there was lots of meat in the rice and pad Thai.The wings were good, we just wished they were a bit bigger. The pad Thai was good, but it was my least favorite dish. Overall, I really enjoyed this restaurant and can't wait to go back.

Refreshing, but with so many cocktails on the menu, I'd likely try something else next time. Before getting into the food, I will say I really appreciated the display of the food and the little touches that made it feel like an elevated dining experience. For instance, the khao soy curry comes in a teapot that you pour over your noodles and chicken, and the A5 wagyu is flamed at the table so you can determine your preference level. The khao soy was delicious with a creamy broth that was flavorful and hearty. The sous vide chicken also made the dish feel a bit more healthy than usual khao soy. There were a good portion of noodles that were firm enough to be enjoyed despite all the broth. My only caveat is that this is a pretty spicy dish and even when I asked for mild it still had a kick to it. Delicious but spicy so I ordered a side of rice but overall it's so delicious that I'd still order it again. My husband's rice was also really flavorful and well balanced between the meat and the rice. Each bite felt like a nice combination of the two elements. The servers were also friendly and while it could be hard to get someone to come by at times, we were also there during peak dinner hours. This place gets pretty busy and often has groups so I highly recommend making a reservation. Even for just two diners I made a reservation and was glad I did. The restaurant heavily leans into the tiger theme which is also fun to see the different elements of it from decor to the staff's attire. I cant wait to come back and try more items from the menu.

For my appetizer, I ordered the fried calamari and the golden bags, but both were disappointingly greasy--the food wasn't allowed to drain properly before being packed.

The golden bags had potential, but they would have been much better if the Thai aromatics had been marinated into the ground chicken instead of relying mostly on corn.
