Been a few years since I wrote a review, but I had to for this hidden gem. It is hidden behind Dunkin Donuts. Super clean and modern without the "cheesy" Thai decor that is prevalent in a lot of Thia restaurants. Pricing was right in line with other area Thai cuisine. Had the Pad Thai w/chicken & Pad See Ew w/pork ($15 each). An order of spring rolls gets you 3 pieces for $7. Very good, not dry at all and juicy. The bartender was also the waiter and he was polite and quick/responsive. Only con is that in warm weather, the bar crowd next door at Quincy's can get a little loud and rowdy, which you can hear inside while you're eating. A few drunks hanging out in front might be off-putting to some. read more

This evening, we had dinner at a new restaurant and followed our usual pattern of overindulging in the menu, choosing 6 appetizers and 4 entrees for 4 people. The food was fairly good. It is worthy of a return trip. The service was good. It wasn't very busy so it's fairy quiet. We love being able to carry on a conversation without shouting. All 6 appetizers were good. Everyone had a different favorite. Crispy Lotus Root was my favorite because it was perfectly fried and not something I have seen. Someone else loved the Chicken Curry Puff. I ordered the Ginger Branzino special. The fish was perfectly fried. I wish there was a little more sauce. The two Pad Kraprow were good but the fried basil was a little tough. The Pad Thai was satisfactory. Overall, entree price was cheaper (except the special) but portions were smaller; however it was more than enough for a meal. read more

Super-nice new place to eat in a fresh-feeling, airy and light environment in Gaithersburg. Friendly service, scrumptious food, all-around delightful experience! I wish I could've tried more things but the scrumdidlyumptious Thai Papaya Salad along with a couple of appetizers filled me up -- I did manage to have some Coconut Ice Cream, though! I'd been wanting and meaning but afraid to try a salad of green papaya and I'm so glad I took the chance! I even had some left over that I ate for breakfast the next morning. The Lotus Root appetizer is comprised of such thinly-sliced lotus root chips, I was very impressed. They were crispy-crunchy and came with such a yummy, creamy mint sauce the likes of which I'd never had anywhere else before, in any kind of cuisine. The Jasmine Tea was generous and soothing. The Spring Roll was crispy, crunchy, and fun! The décor was very enjoyable to be surrounded by .... There is lots of free parking nearby (a huge parking lot), including several disabled spots. It's close to 270 and other major roads. I'm currently daydreaming, imagining what I'll try there next -- I believe soup will be a priority! This is a really great spot! Highly recommended! Yay! :-D read more

4.16.26 I enjoyed my second visit even more than my first--this time, I brought my parents for their first experience. Everything we ordered to share was excellent. My mom especially loved the calamari, duck roll, mango rice, and coconut ice cream. Our server, Moo, mentioned that the ice cream is made in-house, which made it even more special. She provided exceptional service throughout--proactively bringing an extra bottle of water and clearing plates promptly as we finished. My mom also noted that the prices felt very reasonable compared to other Thai restaurants in the area. Since it's conveniently located near their home, I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a regular spot for them. read more

This is cute spot tucked away in the back of Dunkin Donuts. It's beautifully decorated and has makes for a comfortable dining space. The waitstaff are friendly and helpful to figure out menu items and attentive. We had gotten the Ribs as an appetizer that was tasty! Tender and had great flavor! Would totally recommend it to start off your meal! Could be slightly more meatier but I'd totally order again! 4/5 Also got the Pad Kee Mao which had great flavor and good heat to it, slight burning spice but not overpowering! The pork pared nicely but could've been perhaps a more tender part of the pork, wasn't too bad and still good but I like a more tender meat and it was a tad too tough. 3.5/5 also had Prik Gua also great flavor and taste the chicken was good, but I do wish there was bit more of a crunch to the fried food....a bit too soggy and wish the cut of the chicken was a bit more on the size of the protein. Overall, good flavor and good experience read more

I've been waiting on this place to be opened and finally did. Let me tell you definitely did not disappoint and you want to put this on your list! I came for lunch, they do have lunch special but I ended up ordering Crispy Duck Basil, lotus root apps, Thai tea for dine in. Also ordered cashew nut chicken for coworker as to go. Thai tea delicious and topped with whipped cream.. Yumm. Lotus roots crispy crunch and accompanied by green sauce (not sure what) but it was a perfect dip. Now onto the crispy duck, ok I don't eat a lot but I ate practically half of it and took the rest for dinner.. lol. The duck is crispy combined with sweet sauce which is not overly sweet then added a hint of Thai chilli pepper. Not too spicy but if you accidentally bite on it.. just hose it down with your Thai tea! Beautiful decor, clean space with attentive and friendly customer service. Yes I'll definitely be back again especially when craving Thai during lunch break! read more

Went to dinner with a friend. We both settled on this spot. I see they have been open for about 2 months now. I like Thai food, so looked forward to trying theirs. We walked in and grabbed a table. I had already looked up their menu online and had a list of some things to try. I started off with the Curry Puffs. It is chicken and potato in crisp pastry pockets sided with cucumber relish per the menu. Besides chicken, the other option is vegetables. The dish comes with 2 and these were a nice size. I enjoyed the puffs (had them elsewhere before). I also got their Thai Tea and requested half ice. They asked if I wanted whipped cream and I said yes as it was the first time I was getting whipped cream with Thai Tea - either way I would have still drank it. For entrée, I settled on Pad See Ew since they shared it was a popular dish there. It is described as stir-fried wide rice noodles with egg, Chinese broccoli, and carrot in sweet soy sauce. For meat, I got it with beef. Normally I would get chicken but wanted to switch things up even though it was $2 extra. It was good - I would get theirs again. The beef was easy to eat and I liked that. Soon, nothing was left on my plate. For dessert, I got Sticky Rice with Mango. I always get this dish (when in season) at all Thai restaurants I visit. I first tasted the mango, and it was sweet (not green), but I did not enjoy this dessert as the sticky rice was not sticky at all. It was not something I was used to and after 2 or 3 bites, that was it for me. I could have eaten the mango, I guess, but decided not to eat the whole dish. The business is in a plaza with others so there is lots of free parking available. Also, they are not hard to find. read more

The restaurant is small but furnished nicely. I ordered the moo tad nam pla, pad Thai, pad khee mao, and papaya salad. The portions were smaller than other Thai restaurants in the area. I had to order two bowls of rice after seeing how small the portions were. I told them to crank up the spiciness to max on the pad khee mao, the dip in the moo tad nam pla, and the papaya salad but it was only mild to me. The ground red pepper and chili sauce from the spice tray was banging and I was finally able to get some desired spiciness. The staff had a nice attitude and everything was brought out pretty quick but I had to ask to get the bottle of water refilled. When they brought back my processed check, they didn't say anything. When I left the store, they also didn't give a parting comment when though they saw me leave, which I thought was weird because this is basic hospitality that other restaurants know to thank their customers. Finally, their suggested tips have incorrect amounts. I recommend you calculate the tip from the pretax amount manually. read more

Great cozy Thai restaurant with classics and friendly service. They had just opened last week, place was immaculate and inviting. I ordered a tofu pad Thai. It had perfect noodles tossed in a savory and sweet sauce with peanuts, bean sprouts, lime and copious pieces of fried tofu. My companion loved his tofu green curry as well. Will be back to try their other dishes! read more

3-1/2 stars actually. Most dishes were a tad too sweet for my taste. We tried quite a few starters and liked their duck roll Yum Rambutan the best. The chicken stay was a bit dried. We also liked their special entree dish, Ginger Branzino, where the fish was filet into big slices and deep fried. Service was great and the interior was nicely decorated with good seatings. read more

Pro: big parking lot, friendly staff, clean modern interior, price. Con: none. This restaurant just recently has their grand opening about 2 weeks ago and I knew that I had to give this establishment a try. This restaurant sits in a plaza type area with multiple store front and a big parking lot so finding a parking space is no issue. Came here on a Wednesday for lunch and we were the first group in but slowly more people started to trickle in. For appetizer we ordered the spring roll, calamari, and the Laos papaya salad. The egg roll was ok nothing crazy to write about. The calamari I had higher expectations for but ultimately let me down. It didn't have the crispy crunch, flavor was a bit on the bland side, and it was a bit chewy. For the entree, I ordered the Boat noodle soup which was the star of the meal. The broth was very rich and flavorful. It also has some spice level to it that pack some heat after every bite. Lastly, for dessert we had the mango with sticky rice. It pair really well together with the tropical fruit taste and the rice. All in all, had a pretty good experience here and would highly recommend anyone to come and try this restaurant in the future. read more

Came here during their grand opening last week and had a great experience. We ordered the yum rambutan, crabmeat fried rice, grilled steak khao soi, chicken satay, and mango sticky rice, and everything was delicious. The yum rambutan was new to us and really flavorful, though the portion was on the smaller side. Same with the grilled steak khao soi, but it did come with plenty of grilled steak slices. The crabmeat fried rice was well-seasoned and not overly salty, which was nice. Service was great--very attentive, and the food came out fast. The restaurant itself is beautiful and very clean. They also have a solid selection of cocktails to choose from. Definitely a promising new spot and worth checking out. read more

This new place is a hidden gem and no Thais around for miles. This space had been empty for quite a number of years so kudos to the owners for researching and closing the deal. This place tho small is spotlessly clean and fancy gold utensils also. I got the pork special entree beginning with a flavorful side salad. The entree was sliced medium pieces, tender and juicy with a great seasoning mix. Cozy atmosphere, good service and a very diverse menu from the Thai norm. I will be back and highly recommend giving Hommali a try!!! read more

Wow! Blown away by our first visit to HomMali Thai Restaurant today! If you're looking for fantastic Thai food with an amazing atmosphere, look no further. We were greeted so warmly, and immediately struck by how beautiful the restaurant is. Every detail in the layout and decor has been meticulously thought out - it feels fresh, clean, and truly inviting. Started with some refreshing beers and a Matcha Cloud drink that was pure magic . For appetizers, the unique Lotus "chips" with a fresh mint sauce were a crispy-meets-refreshing combo. But the real showstopper? The ribs! We found out they're sous vide first for unbelievable tenderness, then quick-fried for that perfect crisp, all coated in a delicious Thai sauce. The chef's thoughtfulness truly shines through! For mains, we dove into the Duck Noodle Soup (rich, flavorful broth, perfect for a chilly evening!) and the Boat Noodle Soup (just the right amount of heat and depth). Portions are generous, so come hungry! The Prik Gua - battered shrimp in a chili garlic sauce - also did not disappoint. Seriously, HomMali clicked on all cylinders: incredible food, genuinely welcoming staff, and a gorgeous setting. We're already planning our next trip back! Highly, highly recommend! read more

We had a very good meal here. Our meal included Yom Tum Soup, Papaya Salad, Penang Curry, Basil Eggplant, and Pad Kee Mao. The restaurant is tastefully decorated in natural colours. We'll be returning. read more

Went for dinner because the menu here had some different offerings along with the basic Thai foods you expect. Our table had the chicken wings and a steamed dumpling to start and both were good. The wings were lightly breaded, crisp and came with 2 dipping sauces, mild and spicy. I also got the shrimp wonton soup with 3 wontons and a delicious savory broth and plenty of Napa cabbage. It was good but not worth $10. Also at our table others got mixed vegetables with shrimp, and duck with crispy basil. Bothe were very good. I would return because there are plenty of items to try along with Thai staples like pad thai, pad see ew and curries. Service was good and staff was attentive. read more

Super. Curry puffs soooo good. Garden shrimp roll differnt than most,but also so good. Chicken satay as it shoudl be! Will order again!

Went to their soft opening last night for dinner and we were the only patrons in the restaurant? Their lack of advertising might make for a rough start? The restaurant is warmly decorated and the staff and management couldn't be nicer. We ordered chicken satay, pad Thai and Mee Krob. Everything was delicious, portions were large, and pricing was very reasonable. My favorite dish was the Mee Krob that I have not yet seen in any other Thai restaurants in my area. Yum! Looking forward to returning soon. read more

Absolutely fabulous. Brand new hidden gem in Gaithersburg. The food is spectacular, as is the staff and the ambiance. Highly recommend.
