Great food. I ordered my usual (Pad See Ew with fried tofu), for what it cost, it's a great value - it was delicious and the portion was pretty big. I like how they added not only Gai Lan vegetables but also broccoli . The service was really good too. I would definitely be back if i am in the area. read more

I've ordered from Gub Khao on Uber Eats numerous times - delivery is usually quick and the food always arrives hot. The dishes here are authentic and so good! I'd say the food is even comparable to Thai food in Elmhurst (Queens). Who would've known this gem is hidden in Paterson?? Love that they have northern Thai options on the menu as well. The faves in my ordering rotation are the Tom yum fried rice w/ shrimp, curry puffs, pad see ew, nam tok w/ beef and sticky rice, and taro pearls in coconut cream for something sweet! I'm happy to report that spicy actually means SPICY here and they use all the right herbs and veggies in their dishes. I hope to visit in person one day! read more

Good food, we told them medium spicy but still was spicy for me will try level 3 next time. Staff was very kind and patiently explained all the dishes very well. Took their recommendations and ordered. It's a small space and we ate in the restaurant. They do charge service fee as well as credit card fee hence we paid cash. read more

A hidden gem!!! Can't believe this was my first time here but definitely will not be my last. The dishes were packed with flavor & each bite got better than the last. Their menu has some pictures which is so helpful & the location is super cute, not a very big space but has about 4 medium sized tables for guests. The meals as I said were delicious and portions were great! I had the lychee iced tea & my friend had coconut water but they were wayyyy too sweet. I took half of my lychee iced tea home & added a cup of water to it which made it better (maybe ask for drinks lightly sweetened) The staff was friendly & was kind enough to allow us to dine in close to their closing time. Greatly looking forward to going back to try more dishes! read more

I doordashed from her, khao soi was really good and comforting.. perfect as i was down with cold. I got one chicken veggie saute as well and that was really good too. I would have liked if they gave bit more toppings with khao soi read more

This place is definitely a solid 3 stars. We got to go from here abd everything was pretty decent. The portion size was decent but wished they weren't so stingy with the rice. Thai food goes so well with those white jasmine rice! More rice should be given for sure. We had the early bird special yellow curry with tofu. This came with a appetizer, drink and a dessert. The curry decent but thought it wasn't as flavorful as other Thai places. We picked the taro custard and that was delicious! They forgot our spring rolls with our to go order which was very unfortunate. Basil udon with chicken. A bit on the sweeter side but very yum. Loads of flavor. Pad Kha Prow with beef. Very garlicky and basilly. Just how I like it. However a bit sweet and the beef was too dry. Overall this is a solid spot. I wouldn't mind coming here to try more items read more

Food came out very fast. Its a very small space with only the 4 seater tables. The decor is not bad but they do have a bit of visible mess. There is no ambiance bc there is no music. I ordered the pineapple fried rice, curry puffs and thai iced tea. All items were tasty but nothing out of the ordinary. Would eat here again if i was in the area but for a quick dinner. read more

Since my first adventure to Gub Khao, ive come back a few times. i Still love this place, admire the decor, and enjoy the food. thai iced coffee: more like vietnamese coffee, strong & bitter. not too sweet. worth a try. panang curry: perfect. soupy like it should be. i asked for heat, but it was mild. however, the flavor was on point. this is a must try. beef pad thai: i didnt partake in this dish, but it looked saucey and sticky - my date loved it. BIG portion. taro pearl dessert: more like a coconut rice pudding. its good, but needs to be shared. the flavor is alot to take on and its a big portion. thai wings are a must get! theyre like viet sticky wings, but sweeter. MESSY. only 5 or 6 come in an order, but i know everyone will love the flavor and the sauce. tom yum soup with shrimp: oh lord, i asked for hot and gub khao showed up with the spice from hell. the flavor was phenomneal, but i couldnt finish all the broth (too spicy), so beware when ordering this. a nice amount of shrimp too. hoi jor: i have never seen this on a thai menu, but i am glad i tried them. to be fair, the crab taste was minimal, but i loved these fried little balls. the sour and sweet sauce it came with really paired well with them. they were pretty addicting and i can see myself eating 20 more. read more

AMAZING THAI food. We've only got delivery from here - but it's been great every time nonetheless. And we always get greeted by the same delivery man from the restaurant. So sweet! Their curry puffs are the best REALLY. We always order them as an appetizer. They're perfectly crispy and warm, with yummy curry inside. I think this is vegetarian. Their pad Thai, pad see ew, pad kee mao are great as well. Be careful of their spicy levels. Their medium spicy is already pretty spicy so if you can't handle the heat (like me) I would work your way up lol. They always give us a complimentary iced tea - tastes something like grass jelly?? read more

Finally I got a chance to stop by @Gubkhaothai . I am so happy to find a real authentic Thai restaurant in NJ. They have a wide variety of popular Thai dishes from Northern and Esan . We ordered spicy mango salad with shrimps , Pad Ped Pla Duk (Crispy catfish stir fried in a spicy Thai red curry sauce, garlic, lemongrass, galangal, eggplant, young peppercorn, crispy basil leaves), Isan Set(Thai northeastern food with papaya salad, roasted chicken, larb, sticky rice. ) , Pad Kee Mao(Flat rice noodle sauteed with beef, tomatoes, onions, chili, basil, and bell peppers. )Must try !! delicious and Nam Tok salad (Meat mixed with red onion, lime juice, Thai herbs, roasted rice powder.) We asked for extra spicy and we got the most flavorful , wonderful extra spicy food I am looking forward to go back there again soon read more

Ah!!!!! This place is a literal gem. We usually frequent the other Thai spots nearby but this place is light years ahead of them all. The menu is extensive and feels like it's full of yummy authentic options. We tried them for the first time last night and got the tom yum soup with shrimp, spring rolls, and the mango salmon and it was so good I forgot to take a picture. The soup was spicy just like we asked for, the spring rolls were hot and crunchy and the sauce that came with them was sweet and provided the perfect dip, and the salmon was fresh and melted in your mouth. We love cooking and planned on making dinner tonight but decided to get food from here again because it was so enjoyable and we couldn't wait to try more of their food. The lady who answers the phone is very kind and patient when you're ordering. They really respect the spice level you ask for and give you huge portions of food. The drinks are tasty and not watered down. Both last night and tonight they even gave us a delicious complimentary mini iced tea. I'm literally writing this review still sitting at the dining table because this place deserves all the stars and good reviews... but mostly so I can kill some time and get hungry again and eat more of the rice we got. The only thing that would put this place over the top is if they got rid of pork from their menu and started serving halal meat - given their location and the immense amount of Muslims in the area, doing this would only benefit them. ....now we wait til Monday so I can convince my husband that we NEED to try dessert or something from this place, lol. read more

Let me start off by saying, I will definitely be coming back here. I had chicken pad Thai was OUT OF THIS WORLD!! It came with a slice of lime and that gave it such amazing citrusy taste. I had order a side of peanut sauce. The sauce it self was good and thick. When I add the peanut sauce to the noodles it was creamy smooth and hot due to the noodles. The young lady who took my order, very polite and friendly. When picking up my order, she had gave me a small sample of lotus drink. I entered my car took a sip. smooth not over powering favor, just sweet enough , went back and got a large! Over all I had a great experience in the restaurant. read more

What a great small business restaurant. Love the decor. Instagrammable with all the decor. There are not a lot of sitting, so call ahead if you have a large group. We started with the papaya salad, chicken satay and, appetizer sampler; this had curry puffs, shrimp spring rolls, chicken wings and pork dumplings. Papaya salad was crunchy, spicy and all around delicious. First time having it and I was not disappointed. The curry puff was a sweet curry potatoes and vegetables with the most fluffiest dough, I have ever eaten. Chicken wings were good too. The sauces with chicken satay were good too. I can put that on everything. We then had beef drunken noodles. This was good too. Tender beef pieces with chewy flat noodles. The green curry was also a great option. Coconut creaminess with spicy..... simply delicious. They also have some amazing drinks. I had the Thai ice tea: not too sweet. The lychee juice was really refreshing. Whenever you find yourself in Patterson please visit them. They are a fairly new restaurant. read more

I had Udon noodles in Basil Sauce with beef...OMG...phenomenally delicious!!!! My girlfriend had Yellow curry with shrimp...also AMAZING!!! We also shared 4 fried dumplings that came with a spicy duck-type sauce and they were light and also delightful. We ended our meal with fresh mango with sticky rice and coconut milk...warm and delish! Without a doubt, the absolute BEST Thai restaurant in New Jersey. Our hosts, Linda and Andy were exceptionally warm and friendly and offered us wonderful suggestions. We are recommending this restaurant to all our friends and family....and looking forward to returning. read more

Had an amazing lunch with wonderful service. Started with a Shrimp Thom Yum, which was a perfect blend of sweet, sour, and spicy. Next was the E-Sarn Sausage, which was served with lime, ginger, cilantro, and onion. The flavors complimented and brought out the savoriness of the sausage. For the main course, went with a Shrimp Panang Curry, Chicken and Shrimp Pad Kee Mao, and a Chicken Kra Prow. Each was distinct, and even through the spice, their unique tastes shined through. I will have to say that this has to be one of the best, if not best, Thai restaurants in the area. Be sure to swing by if you get the chance. read more

SO GOOD!! We've ordered from Gub Khao twice and both times they did not disappoint. Their food is full of flavor, not oily and tastes very authentic. Portions are incredibly generous as well. Their spicy is **spicy** so be warned. We were not prepared and I was sweating up a storm but it was well worth it. Even all that spice can't mask the flavor profile in each dish. Adults approved and crab fried rice was baby/toddler approved as well. I'm pretty sure my 1 year old ate almost all the crab for me. read more

Haven't written a review for quite some time but I couldn't wait to leave a comment here after having a wonderful lunch there.

The lunch came w dumplings and Thai ice tea (perfect, you can request different sweetness level!). I can't wait to try their curry dishes next time. The best thing is all guests enjoyed them as well.
