    I enjoyed the food I had here. I've had more flavorful versions of these dishes, but the dishes I had were good nonetheless. The service was great and the food came out fast. The noodle to veggie/meat ratio could use work on the Drunken Noodles. There were barely any noodles. Also there was a container of sugar on the table which can easily be mistaken for salt, so heads up!!!

    Thai-ny Boat Noodle
    Christine L.

    Larb Zaab is solid Thai spot located in Wollaston! I recently visited this spot and tried their Thai-ny Boat Noodle bowl. First, I loved the name "Thai-ny" as it was clever for the small bowl. When it came out it was actually a little bit bigger than I though. Second, although the bowl was "tiny", the noodle bowl was packed full of flavor! I got their dry noodles with beef and it was so good. This is the perfect appetizer to pair with any of their dishes or if you're not that hungry. The noodles were perfectly cooked and everything was seasoned well. This definitely was made with love! The chicken satay was also good, just a little bit dry. The coconut flavor really stood out and paired well with the provided sauces. The restaurant itself is on the smaller end but there are a handful of tables to dine in. They got pretty busy around lunch on a Saturday afternoon but most people ordered takeout. The service was friendly and overall the vibes were homey, reflecting the feelings of having a home-cooked dish. Parking is a bit tough (it is Wollaston) but if you look on side streets you should be able to find something. There is also the Wollaston T Station parking lot that you can park at! Overall, I would definitely recommend giving this spot a try and I'd love to try different dishes!

    Crispy chicken rice
    Shirley C.

    It was a delicious lunch, a little expensive but the service was good and it was very authentic. The designs are very Thai themed. The fried chicken was delicious but expensive The curry noodles were yummy and the crispy chicken rice was very juicy and crispy. The udon basil stir fry noodles were good but a little too sweet for my personal preference. The Thai tea was good and the Thai iced coffee was good as well. Overall, a nice lunch place, only street parking. The interior is small, only maybe 4 tables.

    Tom Yum Noodle Soup
    Jeff S.

    Stopped by for lunch. Quiet inside so service was great. The tom yum soup was tasty. Flavorful broth and quality chicken. I would come again.

    Khao kha moo
    Alyanna T.

    My partner and I got the larb (chicken), khao kha moo, nuea daad deaw, Thai-ny boat noodle (beef), and sweet sticky rice w Thai custard - TASTE: 5/5 - everything was tasty! My fave was the larb w its perfect balance of red onion, cilantro, mint, chili, and lime juice. Enjoyed the comforting flavors of the pork hock stew (khao kha moo), the savory, sour broth of the boat noodle soup, and the well-seasoned, fatty beef jerky (nuea daad deaw). Perfect ending w dessert; I live for coconut sticky rice TEXTURE: 4/5 - highlights include the larb's ground chicken, the chicharrón in the boat noodle soup, the tender pork hock, and the spongy Thai custard PRICE: 4/5 - total came to $62 SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - left satisfied w our dinner SERVICE: 4/5 - walked in at 5:15pm on a Sunday and only one other table was occupied. Food started coming out 10min after ordering ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - bright space, of around 20 seats, w good Thai music and beautiful pla taphian, aka woven fish hanging mobiles PARKING: 4/5 - got a free street spot on Beale St

    Tom Yum Prawn
    Lan T.

    We had the Khao Ka Pow Jumbo and Tom Yom Prawn. I liked the Khao Ka Pow Jumbo with rice. The Tom Yom was a disappointment. The broth was both too salty and sweet at the same time. The prawns were not fresh at all! The servers were really nice! No wait on a Friday night!

    Golden bags
    Barbara K.

    Small clean local mom and pop Thai restaurant. This is an authentic Thai menu for sure! I have come here many times with friends and also have referred some and I always get good feedback. The portions are very fair with the price charged. The service here is very friendly and the food comes out pretty quick. Great place for lunch or dinner on a low key day

    Melanie W.

    It's nothing special, but it's definitely a nice local Thai restaurant for a comfort meal at a reasonable price. The place is small, and we waited around 30 minutes on a Friday without reservation for 5 people. We ordered fried corn, golden bags, chicken satay, and kor moo yang for appetizers. My favorite was the fried corn and kor moo yang. Tom Yum Prawn was a bit spicy and had too much cilantro that covered the Tom Yum taste and was a little watery. Soft shell crab pad thai was considered okay, with not too much sauce, which I preferred so the rice noodles wouldn't stick together. I would order takeout from the place but not dine in since the place is small for a takeout order group.

    Recently opened Larb Zaab takes over the old Pad Thai's location. Inspired by the Thai Street food scene, they bring to us authentic flavors! Larb Zaab is a cozy and inviting restaurant with cute little fish origami surrounding us. Their food is flavorful and you know it is spicy when spicy is in their name (Zaab = spicy). But we ordered little spicy and it had a minor kick to it. The drinks are super refreshing and they added drinks that you normally do not get from other Thai restaurants. We tried the Flower Tea Slushie, Thai Tea Slushie, and Longan. I LOVED the flower tea slushie because it has a pungent chrysanthemum taste. Crab Pad Thai, Khao Soi, Thai-ny (love a great pun) Boat Noodle, Fried Corn, Crispy Pork Belly Larb, just to name a few items we've shared and enjoyed.

    Khao Moo Dang with sauce on the side
    Sandra G.

    They are the new thai restaurant replacing pad thai. Went there for lunch and the waitress was very polite and friendly. I ordered khao moo dang, with sauce on the side. The meat was delicious. Also replaced the rice with garlic rice. I can't wait to go back and try other menu. Space was only 5 tables and every one of them are taken!

    I came here a few times for the same thing just to test the consistency of the chef. Well I ordered the 2in1 chicken plate with the pouched and fried chicken and today it was a little off. The chicken was a bit dry and the rice seemed hard to digest compared to other hai nan rice I had. Overall, it's still decent and service is friendly. Downside is they don't have ginger scallion sauce for the pouch chicken.

    Crispy chicken pad thai ended
    Jon H.

    Look I got the food delivered but you know if the flavor is good or bad. Food was really subpar for us. Crispy chicken pad Thai ended up being something id expect from a late night Chinese take out spot because the chicken was mostly batter and barely any meat. Ultimately doesn't taste authentic. There was something off with the curry (not pictured) and the Khao Soi just didn't hit the spot. i really wanted to like this place given that it's new but the flavors need to be improved upon.

    Soft Shell Crab Pad Thai

    This place has really good pad Thai, and is open very late. Also - good service! Very small venue, feels like you are in the city.

    Excellent place for salads and pizza conveniently located within the Common Market food court in…read moreWest Quincy. I went there to get a salad. There are two different ways to order a salad here. The first choice is to order one of their signature salads. There are at least 5 or 6 different signature salads that they make here with set ingredients. The other option is to have them make you a salad with ingredients of your own choosing. You get to pick what type of lettuce you want for your salad and then they let you choose up to four different ingredients for your salad and whatever salad dressing you like. For an extra charge you can also add a protein to your salad such as chicken. There is a huge list of at least 40 possible toppings that you can have them make your salad with. I opted for romaine lettuce topped with cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and broccoli. For a salad dressing I went with the ranch dressing. I really enjoyed the salad. Very delicious. If you are wanting a pizza they have ten or so signature pizzas that they make here or you can create your own by choosing from their list of pizza sauces and cheeses plus up to four toppings from their huge list of different items to build your pizza with. I love that they have so many choices available and part of the fun of eating here is that you get to create either your salad or pizza with so many different choices of toppings. The service is always pleasant here and I've always received my orders quickly. They also have a comfortable dining area in which you can enjoy your meal or you can do takeout. I will certainly be back for more salad.

    Great food, great sides, huge portions…read more Falafel is fantastic. The only thing is their online menu and in house menu says lamb is an option, but all of the online ordering options do not include lamb. Just chicken, falafel, veggie, or kafta (which might have some lamb amongst the ground beef but it didn't seem like it) Just would have loved some dripping sliced lamb but I know it's not always traditionally served like that -- their opening said Vegetarian Combo Plate with Lamb and I wanted it. Oh well. Anyway fantastic shawarma chicken, great kafta and surprisingly perfect falafel (crispy but moist and full of flavor) Vegetarian Combo Plate with Kafta Served with Hummus, Baba Ganoush, Tabouli, Salad, 2 Falafel and 2 Grape Leaves - so...much...good food. Fresh spices and sauces. Smokey flavors. Chicken shish kabob plate - smoky smoky and great sides Then did a Falafel with Hummus and Tabouli Roll-Up-- next day lunch. So good. Freaking huge lol. Fantastic crunch. Pickles. Sauces. Fresh fresh fresh. Will definitely be back. Just need to know about that lamb option on your menu! Love it. Sorry that my photos were taken after we had a bunch of bites. It tasted so good I had to post something to show my appreciation for the flavors!!

It's easy to miss because it's on a busy street and all the business online the row of storefronts look exactly alike. The food was solid as always, so glad I found it! My go to is the chicken kabob plate, which comes with rice, hummus, 2 falafel's and shepherds salad. This location is a takeout spot and won't win you over in terms of ambiance.

    Welcome to Braintree, Tavern in the Square!…read more What once was home to Friday's is now the renovated Tavern in the Square. I think we can all agree that Friday's was a dump and needed to go. I have been to several other Tavern in the Square and I am happy that they finally came to Braintree. With plenty of parking, depending on the time and day, this restaurant is clean, new, and is perfect for watching all kinds of sports. With great big TVs, excellent food and wonderful service, I believe Tavern in the Square will thrive here. We stopped in here for a quick lunch and had great service. I ordered the Chopped Greek with Chicken which was larger than I hoped but still very good. My husband had their Steak & Cheese Crunch Melt. It reminded me of a steak and cheese but better. A must order for sure! Go check it out for yourself! I know you will be impressed as much as we were.

I did make a reservation ahead of time, and I'm glad we did because by the time we were leaving it was really busy inside. I used to frequent this location when it was Fridays but it seems like they have a lot more room in this location compared to others and even have a patio from what I see. I only opted for a few appetizers as I wasn't too hungry Bang Bang broccoli - 4/10 could've been cooked longer and the sauce should be on the side, but it has some flavor. Maple gonchujang wings 9/10 These wings were really good and recommended by our waiter Madyson, and I'm so glad I got them. I do wish they were cooked well done as I had asked, and were just a bit smaller. (But that's my personal preference) Nachos with chicken 5/10 I feel like these might've been done before our other food because it was cold and barely had any chicken nor toppings. I did ask for additional toppings on the side which she brought quickly. I wanted a tequila based drink and she recommended a lemon drop with tequila, mango and guava juice and it was really good. Overall the experience was good, but the pricing is a little steep for the quality and quantity of the food. Madyson made the experience that much better as well, thank you.
