    It was a decent walk to make it to this place from our house & I was questioning if maps was taking me to the right spot! I'm glad that I didn't give up on it! The food- fresh & authentic. The service- Azael provided me with excellent service and was very friendly. The ambiance was fantastic. The patio area overlooks the pool and is airy, with plenty of shade

    Chicken Fried Rice
    Jennifer B.

    The chicken fried rice was everything in a bowl with fresh jalapeño fish sauce! I have come to Curry -Po Thai a couple times for the rice and every time want to come back for more! Service is standard and the views of the pool are beautiful!

    The Mezcal Colada

    Great food, drinks and service. Very friendly staff. Drinks were made perfectly by Miguel. What a guy!! Full of knowledge about his trade and the local area. Everything we ordered was par excellence! The appetizer platter, the Tom Kha soup, the pad Thai and the red curry. They were out of mango for the sticky rice dessert but lychees made for a good substitute. Highly recommend this place.

    Fantastic vibe here! Set in a beautiful residence/hotel; got a little confused finding the place but just keep trusting the nav. Menu is fun with lots of great options. We loved the mix appetizer plate! The pineapple fried rice was super delicious. My drink was a highlight- maybe the best colada I've ever had. Don't skip on the mango sticky rice of course- VERY good. Alfonso was our server and he was great.

    Chicken satay, fried spring rolls.

    Very surprised this spot has not been reviewed. Absolutely fantastic - chicken satay was extremely tasty. We also started with the vegetable fried spring rolls. My advice get them both. Let's skip to dessert- fried banana and vanilla sauce coupled with flan. I don't always do dessert but you also must get these. The main course was basil chicken, cashew chicken, fried rice, green curry and papaya salad. We barely had enough room on the table and ate just about all of it. It was Too good to let it go to waste. Last but not least was the great service we received from Josiah. Not only did he walk us through the menu but had great food advice and ordered an independent taxi to get us back to the hotel.

    Pad Thai, pineapple fried rice, green curry, papaya salad, fried rolls. All Vegan and fresh

    We spent our honeymoon in Tulum. We got to Tulum and one thing after another went wrong. AC leaking puddle all over the Airbnb, first "vegan friendly" restaurant put meat on our pizza and my wife ate it. Beach was covered in seaweed. Our honeymoon didn't start until we came here. We got here and the vibes were amazing. My wife said the music was great so they turned it up. The waiter Alberto knew what was vegan and knew to exclude fish sauce and egg and oyster sauce. Amazing service. And the food! I'm a vegan chef from San Diego and I had zero complaints, everything was fresh and delicious. It's our best meal in Tulum so far. 110% recommend

    Amazing hidden restaurant by the pool. The whole vibe was really nice and aesthetically pleasing. As an Asian I was skeptical about getting Thai food here but we were craving it so we went. We were disappointed by the menu because we thought we went to the same branch in Playa del Carmen which was underwhelming, but when the food came out we were quickly disabused of that notion. The vegetarian spring rolls were yummy, the green papaya salad even better. The star of the show was the lamb red curry, which the server recommended to us. Presentation was laudable, flavour well balanced and aromatic. Even the drinks were good - the orange lemon fizz. No coconuts though.

    Shrimp roll and an assortment of sauces.

    This spot is not on the hip strip of Tulum, it's more so to the local size of Tulum. The food was . Service was amazing. We made reservations 2 hrs before and were seated without issue upon arrival. The music selection was great...the playlist a very fun to listen to. The hostess, waiter etc we're all super sweet. We were getting devoured by mosquitoes (we chose to sit outside at 8pm) and they were nice enough to bring us bug spray to help with getting rid of them. I will Most definitely visit this restaurant again when I'm Tulum.

    Food was great! The staff was very friendly! The price was ok. Im rating this 4 stars because they charged us for little things that other places normally don't charge. For example: they charged us for a to-go box because I wasn't able to finish my meal and I didn't want to waste my food. Overall, great experience. It's located in a very beautiful place. Staff follows COVID-19 guidelines.

    Sorry it's so dark, I forgot the flash I was so hungry  Softeshell Crab strong red curry
    Kachi A.

    Definitely coming back! Absolutely loved this restaurant. We had the soft shell crab strong red curry (think almost like a panang) and the ground beef pad Kra Pow, also recommend asking for a fried egg on top ;) The service was phenomenal, we had the pleasure of being helped by Alex, and he was so wonderful with communication, recommendation and his energy.

    Great spot off the beaten path. Don't be freaked out by the long dark road. There's a beautiful hotel at the end of it! Restaurant is in the hotel, next to the beautiful hotel pool. Service was perfect. We had: Green Curry Tofu Tom Kah Soup Pad Thai Papaya Salad SPICY!!!! Mango Sticky Rice Food was fresh and very flavorful. I'm happily satisfied!

    Let me first preface this review by saying WHO knew that I had to come to Mexico, specifically small Tulum to eat the best Thai of my life?! My boyfriend and I eat Thai back home almost weekly. It is our favorite go to. Lucky for us, our Airbnb during our Tulum stay overlooked this beautiful restaurant and with a little research, we found that it was in fact Thai with amazing reviews. Let's start with the aesthetics; this place was breathtaking. Beautiful decor and interior... from furniture to the hanging decor, to the huge glass windows, this place was a dream. Perfect for a date night, day time date, just absolutely breathtaking. They were even playing Mark Wiens at their front tv, another GREAT sign! (We watch a lot of Mark Wiens back home lol) Every encounter we had from the time we entered the restaurant to the time we were seated and served was outstanding. We were treated like family. Now for the best part, the FOOD. WOW is all I can say. Every single dish was made to perfection, so perfect, we came back two more times during the duration of our stay in complete disbelief. We learned the sweet chefs are from Thailand which made all the sense. Massaman is my favorite curry Thai dish and this one blew all of my past experiences out of the water. My boyfriend loved the seafood, fresh and they did not skimp! I cannot rave about this place enough. How did we get so lucky to find such a gem tucked away in Tulum?! I am so grateful to have these photos and the dining experience to remember for a lifetime as Curry by Po Thai has set the bar to the heavens. Bravo!!!!! I cannot wait to come back to La Veleta JUST for this piece of heaven.

    Some of the best food we ate during our 5 day stay in Tulum. That lamb curry and beef fried rice was scrumptious

    This was an accidental find as I was searching for an Indian restaurant nearby. What a happy…read moreaccident indeed - the food is outstanding, fresh, spicy, delicious. Better than most Thai food I've had in the US, and I'm from Seattle where you can find good Thai on every block. I had the fresh rolls (yum, came with two delicious sauces) and the panang curry which was outstanding, with moist chicken that melted in my mouth. Washed down with two bottles of Singha (yeah for something other than Mexican beer!) Service was friendly and prompt and vibe was chill and relaxed. Will definitely be back!

    I wouldn't tell anyone this restaurant is a must stop while in Tulum, but if you're looking for…read moresomething that'll suffice for a morning meal where you won't wait long for a seat, this is a good option. They operate as a Mexican spot for breakfast and lunch, then pivot to Thai food at night. Interesting concept and I can only speak to the Mexican fare, which was a little odd, but perfectly fine for a quick meal. I ordered a huevos rancheros style breakfast with a side of grilled plantains. Nothing mind blowing, but quick and easy way to start the day. They have a bunch of juices and other heathy options, so if you're feeling bloated from all the 2-for-1 tequila drinks you've been pounding for several days straight, they can get help to rebalance your qi.
