I love Thai food, but this place did not hit the mark. 5 of us ordered through DoorDash and the arrival time kept getting longer. I can't judge the ambiance because we ate in a hotel lobby. We asked for utensils. None were provided. The Pad Thai had dried out noodles. The tofu was cold and dry. Everything we ate had something we weren't happy with. The Thai Iced Tea was watery. One plus - drinks had Nugget ice in them. I couldn't take pictures because it was in a place that wouldn't be cool to photograph. Sorry. But not as sorry as we were ordering from this place. read more

Not sure what they're like in person, but I ordered for delivery and it was atrocious. Got the pad see ew and the drunken noodles. It was doused in oil, completely soaked. The noodles were rubbery, the chive pancakes also had oil seeping out. You couldn't even taste anything with how much oil they added. Did I mention there was a lot of oil? So many better places to order Thai from in Astoria, not sure how they have so many great reviews. read more

Note that there is only 1 table (4 seats) inside. So your best bet is probably take out. I recommend ordering online or calling them. Waiting there will take a while. Pros: - free small appetizer with check in - fresh hot food - very friendly lady taking orders Cons: - portion size not super filling, food is alright - no dine-in - no bathroom What's nice about this place, is that lunch special runs throughout all 7 days. For $10, it's a light meal. Don't expect to be extra full, but for the price, it's alright. We ordered the lunch specials and checked in for free crispy calamari. It's a small dish, the crispy calamari, not a lot of pieces, and I didn't find it extra crispy, I wouldn't say it was the best calamari I've had. While the food was fresh and hot, I didn't find it particularly satiating. I felt that the pad see ew was very salty. The side salad was yummy though. read more

Love this place. Casual, cozy spot for Thai food. Quality has changed somewhat over the years. Still good, but I remember my first time years ago, had their pad thai with shrimp and it was the best shrimp and pad thai noodles I'd ever had. Noodles were chewy and delicious, shrimps were big, juicy and succulent like the perfect shrimps. Their lunch special is a great deal for under $15 for an entree and appetizer. Quantity is smaller than it used to be, but probably same with other places. Service is very nice. Takeout and dine in. There's only a few small tables inside, so it's intimate and nice to sit and have a quiet lunch by yourself. read more

Ddee Thai - Pad thai with shrimp - Thai Near Me - Astoria, New York

Coming from someone who doesn't eat Thai too frequently, this restaurant totally blew me away and caused me to come back multiple times. I tried the food both in-person and to-go and both were even portions. I can't say enough about the Pad See Ew! It is extremely delicious and filling. Even uploading the pictures now is making me crave it again. The only downside is the size of the restaurant. There are only two tables so if you plan to eat in I would definitely call ahead to make sure there's space. The service was quick and the waitress was friendly. I hope to see the space expand as business grows! read more

Coronavirus Diary Day 271 - 12/10/2020 I'm not sure how long I can survive this pandemic. Vaccines are out there, but we can't get it cuz of the FDA. Anywho... Everyone seems to know this Ddee Thai, but how come I haven't heard about it? Today, I got a good deal from Allset, so I gave Ddee Thai a try by ordering three items to be delivered, and those were Shrimp Tom Yum, Spicy Wings and Crab Fried Rice. Whoa, Shrimp Tom Yum was delicious! The spiciness was perfect with a pretty good amount of jumbo shrimp (3) and straw mushrooms. I haven't had Tom Yum with straw mushroom before, so this was a good change. Spicy Wings were definitely spicy because of the sauce. Crab Fried Rice was plentiful, packed with lumps and lumps of crab. It'd be even more tasty if they provided Prik Nam Pla. I would also add that Khao Nah Ped (Roast duck with steamed Chinese broccoli over rice) was really good! 4.5 stars! I can't wait to dine in at this place. Again, it's up to His Highness Cuomo. read more

Ddee Thai - Khao Nar Ped - Thai Near Me - Astoria, New York

Similar to a nearby thai place (Hero), this place was incredible. We ordered multiple appetizers, entrees and drinks - seated outside on the corner to watch a bit of "nightlife" (can I even say that amidst COVID-19?) They have all the staple dishes like fried tofu, pad thai, papaya salad and the likes... but it's the presentation that makes this stand out. For a simple fried tofu appetizer, the pieces were stacked like a jenga puzzle. The pastry puffs were neatly seated next to one another, and the papaya salad was luscious.... Yes, I said "luscious" for a papaya salad. Prices were modest and the restaurant was big enough to be seated, served and finished in a very timely fashion. The pad thai also had a wafer stacked atop, adding a unique touch and an otherwise tasty dish. Would I return? absolutely. Sign me up. read more

Aroy Kup... excellent little Thai place in Astoria, lunch special perfect. chon gâaeo!

This is like my 3rd or 4th order here and I can't believe I lived so close and slept on this place for so long. The staff is SO nice The food is excellent- honestly some of the best Thai food in queens Best of all they can make most things vegetarian and let you customize spice and even remove things from dishes- I always take the curry out of the rice cuz it's not my thing I love how much vegetarian stuff there is. I went in to pick up an order and the staff said if I want something vegetarian just ask - they also have mock duck and tofu options I also added the wrong comment to my order and they waited for me to PU and didn't make it til they cleared it up w me Then they brought the food out to me as I waited outside Someone else commented about utensils - they don't include them unless you ask. I like that. Less waste. But they absolutely do NOT charge for them. read more

Was hanging around Astoria and needed a quick lunch fix-up. When I saw the storefront I wasn't convinced I would have the best experience here, but boy was I proven wrong. This small restaurant really packs a lot of flavors! This truly adds one for the books for the culinary mecca of Astoria! This place is small, cozy, and probably can only pack 8-10 patrons at a time. First off one of the best pad thai and Thai basil fried rice I've had there in NYC. The pad Thai was decent portion, piping hot, seasoned and flavored well,and came with a lot of shrimp. Very authentic. Thai basil fried rice. too was good and fresh. Lots of chicken and the noodles were really tasty. Tom yum soup was really refreshing, and I love the hints of sour tastes. Do check in on yelp, since you can order a free appetizer if you do! Service was fantastic. The owner kept us company and had our waters refilled. Best part is lunch special. You get a appetizer salad or soup (choose one of four) with your entree for consistently between $8 or $9 depending what kind of protein you choose. So filling at such an incredible price! You can't beat that! read more

Great food and good service. The space is VERY small to dine in, unless you are planning on eating quickly. I typically order take out & delivery & my orders have always been on point. read more

This is tiny restaurant which was probably designed for take-out orders only. They barely have three tables that could possible host six customers, don't expect a restroom. Still decided to give it a try. Service was fast, attentive and efficient. Food was simple and delicious. Best item was the spinach/chive steamed dumplings. The best I've ever had! If you want simple and fast, give it shot. read more

Ddee Thai - Spinach Chive Dumplings - Thai Near Me - Astoria, New York

This was a complete hole in the wall, but made some of the best Thai food I have had in New York. I had red curry with tofu and vegetable spring rolls. The spring rolls were crispy and flavorful, and the curry was rich and fresh. The prices were also very affordable. There isn't much seating, so takeout is probably the best option. This is a great choice for lunch or dinner in Astoria. read more

Good price! I got everything, with delivery and tip for $25. I ordered the crab cheese, came with 6, it was more cream cheese than crab flavor but they were nicely crisp and the sauce added a nice sweet flavor. I also got the Pad Sew Ew. The flavor was there. I've had better thai food but it was also more expensive, so here is not a bad option for some cheaper take out :) read more

Ddee Thai - Thai Near Me - Astoria, New York

Since the only reason I kept scrolling past Ddee Thai on the delivery apps was because I'm leery of businesses with high star ratings but without the photos to back it and give me an idea of what will arrive at my door. But I eventually decided to make my way through their menu as a quarantine foodie project. So VERY glad I did. As you'll see pictured, I made my way through multiple orders, enjoying every single bite. My thinks? Tom Kha Soup - good! All the flavors are there. The soup is on the brink of using too much coconut milk, but stops right before it gets there. Very generous with the protein add in. Three shrimps if you go that route, and a hearty amount of chicken for the poultry lovers, both with plenty of broth for that slurpy goodness. Spicy Wings - Unless even the slightest spiciness is a no no for you, or you have a thing against breaded wings, I'd recommend! I enjoyed that there is a nice flirt of heat in the batter, allowing you to enjoy them without the sauce. And if you want the authentic Thai HEAT upgrade, you can use the sauce on the side. My only qualm is that they aren't as meaty as I'd like. The breading was rather thick both times I ordered. Still, I ordered twice and would order again. Massaman Curry - Solid! Not a lot of potato presence, decent peanut presence. Paired well with beef. Crab Cheese - the best dipping sauce for rangoon in the area. Really like how they form the wonton! Makes it easy to handle, really nice presentation, and the perfect size to down in one chomp. Solid taste, and a good bite. Basil Rice - Some of the best I've had. Super flavorful, nice kick with the spice. I devoured. Green Curry - only one I didn't picture since I forgot to do it before I "repurposed" it to make a green curry pasta. Howsomever.....fam? FAM?! That perfect green curry spice build, layers flavors, natural flavors of the protein and veg enhanced by the curry. Geez. Likely my favorite of their curries, with Panang a close second. Speaking of... Panang Curry - OOO THAT'S GOOD! Soaks up beautifully in the jasmine rice. Slightly sweet, faint heat. An excellent rendition of an "every day curry". Red Curry - Also solid! I definitely remember taking bites and going, "Hmm..." *another bite* "Hmm!" And repeating. Lastly, when it comes to customer service (both in-house and delivery) they're on point. There was an item missing the last time I ordered. I called to let them know and see how they're handle. The woman who answered was authentically apologetic. And even though they were approaching closing, they honored my request, fired up a fresh plate, and had someone bring it. I could tell the delivery guy was tired but he remained professional and polite. Plus delivery is super quick, though everything very fresh. Ddee gets a verified thumbs up from this dude! A top competitor among the Queens Thai community. read more

This is a lowkey kind of spot but the food is great. About $12-14 per entree depending on what kind of meat you want to get. We ordered the massaman curry, pad see ew and thai basil fried rice and all were delicious. I'd watch out on the thai basil fried rice if you aren't a fan of spicy - when they put the pepper icon on the menu they do mean it. Nice spot for a casual dinner out in the neighborhood. Wouldn't recommend for parties more than 3 or 4 - not a ton of space. read more

I usually order delivery from this place never actually went in until the other night . The place is so tiny that there is no excuse as to why it should not be Sparkling Clean! After the the waitress picked up and cleared our dishes, there was a roach under our dish. We called her back over and she killed the roach. We lost our appetite. We were gonna order dessert and some more drinks, but decided to leave. instead of her, apologizing by taking something off the bill or not allowing us to pay, she gave us a full bill. I will never order from them again. She tried to convince Us it was a water bug !!!! lady I grew up in Astoria. I know the difference between a roach and a water bug. Health department should visit definitely not an A rating read more

Nice surprise delicious duck noodle soup This hole in the wall thai restaurant offers excellent dishes especially the duck and curry noodle offerings.

I wandered into Astoria to explore for the day, and found this place for lunch - it's a small shop with only a couple of tables, both of which were occupied when I arrived. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and I picked up my order right away. The fried tofu appetizer was really good, and had a decent sized portion. The chicken pad thai was enjoyable as well, as were the thai vegetable dumplings. read more

Some of the best pad thai I've ever had- it's really easy to walk past this place without realizing it's there (I lived a block away for a year and never noticed them), but aren't those always the restaurants that have the best food? They have great lunch deals as well, and you get plenty of food for the price. And the woman who is always there (I assume she's the owner but I'm not positive) is so kind. It's always such a positive experience. I've ordered from them plenty of times and I've never once been disappointed. Get the pad thai. read more

I love this spot! Their green curry is absolutely delicious. The curry itself has a good balance of flavors and is very consistent. I also love that their bamboo shoots are cut in slices as opposed to matchsticks. It's a minor thing but it really adds to the textural experience. The use of green beans is also notable. I find that I enjoy green/red curry in most places, but these sort of details make all the difference and is the reason why Ddee is my go to Thai takeout place in Astoria. Bonus points: * Delivery is always really quick, never had an issue * Staff are very kind! read more

I've eaten here before and the food was good, however I just ordered their lunch special and it was a big disappointment. The portion is extremely small, smaller than any other lunch special I've seen before. I also asked them to make it spicy and they did the complete opposite, it's tastes soooo sweet. Will not be ordering from here, certainly not the lunch special read more

Ddee Thai - Lunch special ~$9 - Thai Near Me - Astoria, New York

Ddee thai was an awesome experience for some late night grub and watching movies. We ordered take-out and went to the restaurant since we've been wanting to try the new thai restaurant in Astoria. The waitress and workers there were really friendly and took our order right away. The restaurant is a very nice and cozy with classic thai decorations that add that unique feeling to the place. Great if you wanna don't wanna eat at home. I got the Chicken Pad Thai without egg. It was great!! The noodles were cooked to slurp-able perfection. It wasn't sweet like how most other places make it super sugary. The chicken was well cooked which made taste great!! I also got the Curry Puffs. They were huge and the dipping sauce was nothing better than awesome since they compliment each other so well. You have to check this place out and Check-In!! for some great Thai food!! Definitely will come agai read more

Might give it another shot but the rice was downright rubbery - I have to assume very low quality (way too much starch?). The coconut soup was pretty good though! read more

Always so good! Honestly make it here for lunch time and not only are you getting amazing food, you're getting an amazing deal! Where else in Astoria will you not be charged an arm and a leg? (Looking at you Blend... Blah) Try here and you won't regret it! Whenever I can starting eating out again I'll be resuming my "eat here 3 times a week" trend again. (Pro tip! Get the Fried Rice Lunch Special with the Thai Ice Tea and Dumplings! My god is it heaven!) (Also Pro tip to restaurant! I need a personal table at this place because if too many people find out how good it is, I might actually have to time my cravings for good food.... Might need to look into that guys.) read more

So happy to have found a thai restaurant open during this quarantine. I definitely needed my thai fix! My husband and I ordered a pad see ew chicken, pad Thai shrimp and a chicken tom kha. Everything was good. They followed exact instructions. And i know i am very particular. I was pleasantly surprised to see two types of broccoli in the pad see ew because i enjoy both types. Also the pad see ew had a white pepper taste which I enjoyed. Although i think it could have been on the sweeter side. But I didn't mind that it wasn't because I enjoy saltier. The pad thai noodles had a generous amount of shrimp. The sauce was good. But i would enjoy thinner noodles. But that is my preference. All in all the food and service was good and we would definitely order from them again! read more

Stopped by for lunch and ordered their Pad See Ew lunch special with vegetable dumplings to go. I personally think the food was a bit salty and overpowering with the sauce. I also ordered a thai iced tea. I can't say this is the best thai food I've had but it did the job. If I were to stop by again, I would try another dish. read more

Food wasn't fresh. Was soggy and not prepared well. I would not recommend. Curry puffs were oily, soggy and lacked flavor, the chicken was dry and the fried rice was too oily and not fresh read more

The little place is just a gem waiting to be discovered. I have been here a few times and have always had a good experience. Friendly service, good tasty food at reasonable prices. What else could you ask for when you're looking for something to eat. The basil fried rice is amazing, so many good flavors with mild spice. The khao nar ped (Duck breast over rice) was good too. The sauce is what makes the dish. Overall very pleased with this place and will definitely be back. read more

The wait wasn't long at all for the food I was somewhat disappointment to see its not a dine in restaurant they literally only have one table that could fit four guests the most.

I ordered food for delivery and it never came. I called the store to check the status of my order and was assured it would be here shortly.... well 20 mins later I still don't have it!!! And at this point now I don't want it!! I ordered through yelp powered by grub hub. So I called there customer service number & spoke to someone right away. I told the man on the line what happened he apologized for the restaurant and sent me a refund! That's for grubhub's amazing service I wasn't charged for food I never received. This place needs to do better if they plan on keeping their 4 1/2 star rating!!! I will not be ordering or going to this restaurant again! read more

Literally so lucky that this place is in my neighborhood! They have a bomb lunch deal, quick service, and amazing flavor. My go-to is the Pad Kee Mao with tofu, and my friend loves their spicy Tom Yum soup. It's always been a clean, pleasant experience. I usually get take-out, but I took a friend there for sit-down lunch, and service was great too. It's a tiny place, however, so make sure you know whether you want to stay or takeout beforehand. read more
