    Spicy beef. No 45
    Mina G.

    Came here for dinner. Pretty casual place. The menu was quite extensive. Had a lot of non-mainstream thai dishes that I never heard of. Ended up beef spicy beef, some veggies and a side of rice. Portion was quite large. I ordered it spicy level 4 and felt it was tolerable. Overall good.

    BEST CHICKEN WINGS

    Came right when it opened and was seated immediately. Restaurant is quiet so it's nice for a quiet evening meal. First dish is papaya salad - tons of flavor and good amount of balance between papaya, green bean, and cashew. I wish it was a tad bit spicier but I like my food to burn my mouth so that's just me. WINGS WERE 10/10. Pretty disappointed on our European tour of food when it came to wings but these are a massive home run. So crispy and full of flavor. You don't even need the sauce. Tom yum soup w/shrimp was perfect. Soothing, comforting, and exactly what we were looking for. Our mains were the chicken yellow curry and the beef pad Thai. Both were flavor explosions and so well seasoned. Everything was cooked to perfect. Reminded me of the Thai food back home in LA's Thai town. They provide FAT scoops of rice and give you more for free. Idk what the reviews are talking about - the service was exceptional! Come on by for some authentic Thai cuisine.

    One of the best Thai food in Amsterdam. Do family style and share a few plates. Drinks aren't bad either. Small place but can fit a group.

    This a OK place. Reasonable price/quality. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Seems like people have find this place. It is much more busy than 6 months ago. I had one of my favorites:"chicken green curry". On the menu known as "Keng khiew waan kai". I try this at every thai. Here it is good(8). Today a guest was complaining about waiting for her meal. I"ill keep coming back.

    An awesome Thai restaurant in Amsterdam city center!…read more We were walking around in Amsterdam city in the afternoon and was browsing for some Thai food for lunch. Our first time visited this restaurant and the overall experience was amazing! The quality of their food was excellent as in the flavor, authentic taste, temperature control and fresh ingredients. Their stir fried crispy pork belly with Kai lan was super good. We could not stop eating while waiting for our masamam curry to be served. The pork belly was roasted with smoky flavor and was really crispy blended well into the brown sauce with some little spicy chili flavor. It was just an awesome dish and goes well with white rice. Their masamam curry was rich and creamy with coconut . The beef was tender, the potatoes was soft and well cooked just at the right time management . With some peanuts in the curry made the entire dish super delicious! We enjoyed their food a lot!. Their service was great and staff was attentive to the customers' request. The moment you walked into this restaurant you know you made the right choice for Thai cuisine. Highly recommended for you to have a try if you are visiting Amsterdam city center. It is definitely one of our top list of favorite restaurant to go in Amsterdam city!

You immediately think you are another city then in Amsterdam. The staff was extremely friendly and had a very good attitude with us arriving so late. Being a group that enjoys family style, we needed Ho ordering a hodge of food. I will say the group favorite was the curry. This was everyone's vote but my own. I personally liked the chicken lo mein. It definitely shined over the mall Chinese food I had a few weeks ago. The Thai was my second favorite and it was a second favorite for the table as well. Very flavorful with a good hot and sweet vibe with the additional compliments available. I would go here again if it was the only thing open. Nothing was WOW... - Forever Foodie- Ela

I don't know much about Thai food but I do know that the two times that I came here and the different things that I ordered, were all very delicious! I really liked the coconut cream soup with the mushrooms. I love mushrooms and I love anything coconut so why would I not love this?! This place is not very expensive so just go here and try it out. You really won't regret it! Although it's not expensive, you might be tempted to keep ordering more... I know I was! That's always a good sign, I'd say.

We were walking towards another restaurant during a rainy afternoon and suddenly we passed by this hidden gem that looked super cozy and also the food looked perfect for the occasion, by that I mean steaming hot. We didn't think twice and quickly asked if there was room for two, which we ran with lucky bc the place is very small but two people were just paying to leave. We were promptly sat and attended. The food came out fast, steaming hot, generous portions. The chicken curry had an addictive ingredient bc it didn't matter that it was spicy I couldn't stop eating it! The vegetables were perfectly tender and tasty. The meat was juicy and cut into perfect bite chunks. Im not exaggerating when I say I had the most delicious chicken curry I've ever had in my life. My husband had the beef with garlic and white pepper which is onions. Also incredibly good. Both dishes came with a side of rice. At the end we were stuffed and super happy! We came back twice before leaving Amsterdam!
