The service was outstanding, we were greeted as we entered and offered the option to select our table. The food was delicious, full of flavors. I accidentally ordered my dish not spicy so I will need to try it again soon. The ambiance was on plain side. read more

Alright so myself and my daughters stopped in around 130/2 on a Saturday afternoon. We were he only guests. I've always been suspicious of hole-in-the-wall type places but said "eff it". The decor is very quaint and comfy, the lamp on our table didn't work lol but it was very clean. Our server was a teenager and he seems just as surprised to see us as i was that it was empty in there haha but he did a fantastic job waiting on us. Kinda shy but...we are at a HITW place so whatever. Now the food. Omg the food! I've recently become obsessed w Thai food after visiting my sister in Baltimore and eating at a restaurant there, and i was soooo happy this place did NOT disappoint!! We got goyza, Satay, and curry puffs for appetizers: goyza 10/10, satay 15/10 (soooooo good! By far my favorite thing i ate! I'd come for just that!!), curry puff 5/10 for me (i wasn't expecting the sweetness, thought it'd be more savory) but my daughters loved it. My youngest got the Pad Macaroni from the kids menu which she loved. My other daughter got Pad Thai which she thought she would hate because of the smell, but she loved it. I got a curry dish i can't remember the name but it stars w an "M"....mumua-something. Idk but it was really good. Also got some shrimp fried rice and regular white rice. My girls and i loooooved the white rice it was like melting in our mouths it was so yummy. Overall a great place and i will 100% be coming back (specifically for access the DELICIOUS side spices!!! Can't get that with take out!). read more

Exceptionably amazing food. Spicy and delicious. Beef soup and curry. And get the Thai tea!!

We were 1st introduced to Garnjana in 2003 when we were told that the 3 places we absolutely had to try in the area were Paul's donuts, carl's ice cream & Garnjana! We have never been disappointed-we especially love their gai larb, shrimp or pork pad Thai, cashew chicken & the Thai iced tea. If they have fresh mango, their mango w sticky rice is the best! read more

"I had a fantastic dining experience at this Thai restaurant! The Lard nah chicken and fried rice were both exceptional. The flavors were on point, and the service was top-notch.

been going here for a few years. Yesterday I ordered the spring rolls which were always just fair. Yesterday they were unbelievable! They were egg rolls not the usual spring roll they had sold. Just veggie but WOW! Crunchy. I'm not sure what the clear dipping sauce was but it was good. I keep hot mustard and duck sauce at home. Ordering more tomorrow! Closed Sun-Mon. read more

Garnjana Thai Restaurant - 81. Chicken Noodle Soup with Rice Noodle. - Thai Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

Food is pretty good but unfortunately the service was very slow. We were waiting about 40 min for our food and were starving! There's only about 3 people who run the restaurant. I ordered a Thai iced tea which was huge and actually pretty good! I thought it was a little on the sweeter side compared to other Thai iced teas that I've had but it was still delicious! For my main course I ordered the stir fried tofu and added broccoli with a side of brown rice. I asked for it to be medium spicy. I thought it was the perfect amount of spicy but still asked for Siracha which I drizzled on. The tofu was the perfect texture and the flavoring of the sauce was really good! It tasted like a ginger and garlic base sauce. Unfortunately there was very minimal sauce on my plate and I was really wanting more to mix it with the rice. However my brown rice was also slightly undercooked which was disappointing. When I asked if I could get a side of fried rice instead and I was told it would be an extra $3 so I just kept the brown rice as is, There was also WAY too many carrots on my plate so if you don't really like carrots I would ask to swap it for something else or order without it. Overall the food wasn't too bad but I'd want to order something else next time like the drunken noodles. I was very impressed with all the veggie options for vegetarians like me! read more

Been twice for carryout. It was bland both times. The chicken seems reheated and has a terrible consistency. The thai coffee seemed to be made with old coffee and was overly sweetened. My boyfriend and I both disliked our entrees each time. read more

Stopped in on a weeknight, it wasn't busy at all when we got there and we were seated immediately. Dining room is clean and decent looking, so were the tables, plates, silverware and glasses. Our server was very friendly and helpful, she kept our waters topped off and was prompt. The food is pretty authentic, loaded with flavor and perfectly prepared! Nice size portions for the dinner portions. Prices are fair too. Definitely would return when in the area. read more

This place used to be one of my favorites, I think they may have changed ownership? Because the food quality has plummeted. I just received my Ubereats delivery for pad Thai, Panang curry, Tom Kha, and shrimp in a blanket aka fresh spring rolls. The Panang curry and the Tom kha lacked any flavor at all really which is the opposite of what they're supposed to be. The Spring rolls were basically all lettuce and two small shrimp and that's it, the pad Thai was ok but was probably the best out of the items we ordered. Sadly, I will not be coming back with the decline in food quality over the last year or so. read more

Ordered here in a while and I was pleasantly surprised. They took all of the right precautions with covid and online ordering was super easy. They text and email you when your food will be ready. I can't wait to order from here a lot more!! read more

This is not real Thai food. It's not even decent food. They don't use the proper ingredients, just throwing in whatever is cheap, and the flavors are off and the taste bland. I won't be back. It's like they aren't even using a recipe and are just making half of it up as they go. I ordered my favorite soup, Tom kha gai, and I asked for it to be spicy. Got home and opened it to find that it's the wrong color. Its supposed to be white based with heavy red/orange tinge from all the spices. It was pure white. No spice whatsoever, extremely bland , and hardly any mushrooms. It was actually insulting that they would try and pass this off as Thai and expect me to eat it. Next was another of my favorites; yum talay (seafood salad). What I got was 4 pieces of seafood atop a soggy mess. They didn't even include the squid! Even though it says right on their menu that it's a part of the dish! That's the key part of this dish and they didn't even put any in! It also was bland with zero spice and this dish is supposed to be spicy, especially since I asked for it to be extra spicy. It's like they know what's supposed to be in this food but they just don't care to put it in. My boyfriend ordered Gai pad krapow (basil chicken). Wow! This was absolutely the worst of it all. The flavor was absolutely non existent. Just tasted of cooking oil. Zero spice and this is supposed to be a HIGHLY spicy dish. Maybe 4 tiny pieces of basil. And since when do you replace most of the chicken with corn, carrots, and bean sprouts? Corn, carrots, and bean sprouts do not go in this dish at all! Finally we got the Seafood Paradise. Not even close to paradise. The curry was missing the right flavor and spice. And the seafood was just a few pieces. Overall, the place was a total ripoff, not authentic, watered down, and a huge disappointment. If I were dining in, I'd have sent everything back and left. Sadly I had ordered carry out and was too far away to drive the food back before they closed. If anyone actually likes this place, they must have never had real, good, or at least okay Thai food, because this isn't any of that. Advice to the owner: have some integrity. read more

Delicious food and friendly staff. The spring rolls are good. Not too greasy. The red curry chicken was flavorful with a savory curry. Looking forward to visiting again. read more

One of the best hidden gems! If you're in the area, definitely stop by. Their menu is very extended with many dishes you won't find at other thai restaurants, they have a kids menu and also serve thai beer. Staff is lovely and our food was delicious. read more

The owner is so nice and they are happy to accommodate a vegetarian or vegan. I would go back there because the food was fresh tasting and very flavourful. read more

5 stars hands down!! Everything was FRESH and made from scratch (at-least what it felt like). First Thai place my husband didn't complain about!!!! Finally!!!! I absolutely love Thai food and was scared I might not be able to find a place nearby - but this is it!! Will recommend it all day every day! read more

Great food, clean environment, and very good wait staff. One of my favorite places to eat!

To be as concise as possible: the food here is flavorful. The Tom Kha at once bursts with lemongrass and soothes with coconut. But the true hidden gem is the curry pastry: as flaky and warming as any small bite I can recall. read more

My absolute favorite Thai restaurant ever. All of the seafood specials are spectacular, but quite frankly, everything they serve is wonderful. Reasonable prices. Not the best atmosphere, but it's fine, and I'd eat here if all they had was a couple of picnic tables and wooden stools. read more

If you're traveling nearby and want a fairly good meal, this is your stop. We were staying in a hotel nearby and came in for dinner. It's chill in here, super casual. We had the shrimp in a blanket, peanut curry with tofu, and pad see ew with tofu. Solid spring rolls, warm and delicious, which was different for these, as the fresh ones are usually on the cooler side. I liked it this way, too, though. Nice peanut sauce, no sugar, a welcomed change. Tofu lovers! Wow lots and lots, which was a little overwhelming but very well prepared. Peanuts inside the curry were a little soft for my taste, but nice and crisp brocoli. For the other dish, the noodles were good but on the verge of being a little soggy. Not bad though! Prices are medium, definitely good for the portion size... An overall good experience, check it out if you're close. read more

Was kinda down so my daughter and I went out to dinner. Thai sounded good! She wanted pad woon sen which wasn't on the menu and they made it for her. I had salmon which was delicious! Only a mile from our house. Made me feel better. Thanks! read more

Just got back to my hotel after eating at Garnjana...what a nice little place with a very friendly owner. Things started out a little slow as we walked up to the place and the lights were dimmed, but as soon as we walked in the door we were greeted by who I assume is the owner. Since the place was empty we sat right down and the owner was very helpful with the menu, even if he was a little tough to understand. I started with the Tom Kha Gai soup and it was a tasty treat-though it could have been a little spicier. Our group also had a Tom Yum soup and a Chicken Satay for appetizers. We all ordered different meals and I think everyone really liked what they had...Masa Munn, Panang, the Bangkok Turnover (Thai omelette), and I had the Red Curry with Chicken. What was great was how the owner brought us over two trays of different hot spices and peppers so we could add our own heat. I wasn't feeling well (I think I'm getting the flu), so the extra spices really helped get the ol' sinuses churning. This place was pretty damn good...small restaurant, great service, delicious meals. Isn't that what we all look for in a restaurant? I'd come back! read more

Our first but definitely not our last visit here. We stopped by after candlelight church service nearby on Christmas Eve and dined in. The food was fresh, delicious and large portions. Friendly service and soft jazz music topped the experience. Very reasonable prices. read more

Fell in love with Thai food, now I look for it all over the place. Came in for lunch, the place is unassuming with simple decor. We were seated right away and there were a good half dozen tables occupied. Service was good an efficient. The waitress was courteous and the owner came over to see if everything was satisfactory. They have a good lunch menu with specials and all it's on the menu have a lunch sized portion. I had the Red Curry lunch special. It came with a vegetable soup and a spring roll, both of which were tasty. The curry was delicious with a hint of spice. When ever I get curry from a new place I get the standard to see how hot they go. Next time I'll get it a bit spicier. My daughter had the Pad Thai, which I got a taste of and it was excellent. Here is my problem. The Tom Yum or Tom Kha are a Thai restaurants bread and butter. They should offer a small sized portion of that instead of the vegetable soup. I bet no one would really order that soup so they can save a menu item by giving the Tom Yum as the lunch special soup. The lunch special was well priced and besides my issue with the soup options it was a bit small. I was still hungry. Next time I'll try the standard red curry lunch portion, as I would rather have more curry than veggie soup. As I said I was still hungry after the meal, so I ordered a small portion of the Tom Yum. I was disappointed. It was just ok and that is the reason I gave 4 Stars instead of 5. I will be back for the curry, trying the different varieties. read more

Almost everything I've tried here has been great! The Nua Num Thok, curry puffs, chicken satay, drunken noodles, and Lad Na can't be beat!

Finally a restaurant in Fredericksburg that can add heat to the menu item. The drunken noodles had great flavor and the portions were large. It could have been spicier but better than all the other restaurants I've asked to "make it as spicy as you can." read more

I've actually never eaten at the restaurant, however while studying at UMW ordered from them at least once a week. I've tried practically everything on their menu and it was all fantastic, decent portions, and reliable delivery. Side note: Surprisingly though the Pad Thai was a little meh. read more

It was fairly quiet when I came here Friday evening around dinnertime so I was a little bit nervous, but we were greeted promptly and told to sit anywhere we like. I always get the same thing at Thai restaurants to level the playing field (beef pad see ew) so it didn't take too long to decide. They also had a deal on yelp to get a free beer/wine/drink when you check in so I got the Thai iced tea. The mug was gigantic which is both good and bad - I kept sipping it which partially filled me up before the food came out, but also good because the food took so long to come out. The tea tasted slightly watered down and the flavor was not as concentrated as I would have liked, but only a tad. When the food finally came out after roughly 45 minutes, I was ravenous and dug in right away (after I snapped a picture for yelp, of course). The noodles had a good bite and chewiness to it and the sauce was sweet, but not overly so. This pad see ew had carrots in it which was odd to me - I've never had carrots in it before. I'm not a big fan of carrots to begin with so I didn't feel like they added much to the dish itself. It was a generous portion and could possibly be made into two meals, but could also be one if you were very hungry. Overall, good basic Thai restaurant. Good service and not a bad choice if you want run of the mill Thai food. Their desserts look great so I may come back to try them! read more

Definitely a great option for Thai food in Fredericksburg! The original owners were awesome but sold it, I wouldn't say it has gone downhill- just notice some subtle differences.

Garnjana gets a 5 for service. As vegetarians, my family always has to be careful when going to Thai restaurants. Many times, seemingly vegetarian dishes will contain oyster or fish sauce. The staff here was so accommodating. Almost ANYTHING on the menu can be made vegetarian. The chef even came to our table to double check that we couldn't eat fish/oyster sauce. We had so many choices and this was above and beyond. As for the actual food, the som tum (papaya salad) was delicious and spicy. My mom even tried to save the leftover sauce to eat with her rice/drink/bathe in later. The two entrees we got were the pad kra pow and Thai eggplant. Honestly, both were just okay. Compared to other Thai restaurants, the dishes lacked flavor. That being said, there was also nothing included that was unnecessary. The food tasted like it could be made by someone's Thai mom and felt pretty healthy. No excessive oil or cream. I would eat here again but the food is nothing to rave about. read more

This place is a hidden gem, it's clean, the staff is very polite and care is taken w/ both eat-in and take out food orders. They allow you the option of customizing about half the menu and they get it right. I have had consistent quality and flavors in my orders and am very appreciative of this. The food is not greasy or oily and the ingredients are consistently fresh. Try it someday, it's much nicer inside than its outward appearance suggests. read more

I am really upset that we have passed this place a million times and never stopped. Tonight we finally did. Both entree's were fresh, wholesome and delicious. The restaurant itself was SPOTLESS. Bathroom's SPOTLESS. Do not let the near empty dining area scare you away - their pickup line was endless. People were coming in and out constantly. Our server was a wonderful young man who checked on us often and provided exceptional service. Long story short - we found a new Thai place. In my opinion - Best in the Burg. You guys downtown - have fun waiting for a seat at the usual downtown tourist traps. We will be here enjoying a quiet evening in a wonderful place. read more

Absolutely delicious food! The food was served super hot and it was fresh. I ordered the Thai chicken rice and wonton soup and my friend got the drunken noodles.

Me and my sister wanted to try this place since we read a lot of good reviews. It was an easy weekday afternoon and we wanted to order vegetarian food. We ordered the Tom kha soup, which was OK to taste. I thought since it was an easy weekday afternoon, the food would be exceptionally good. I have been to a lot of Thai restaurants so I know what Thai food tastes like. This place does not do justice to Thai food taste. We also ordered spicy basil fried rice and stir fry tofu with vegetables, again the food taste was very basic. The basil fried rice was not spicy and there was hardly any basil visible. The tofu sir fry veggie was OK as well. This place does not do justice to Thai food, you would know if you have ever tasted authentic Thai food. read more
