    My Thai has been my biggest restaurant revelation of 2023. I have had a handful of meals at My Thai this year and I left each meal with a big smile on my face. I've heard some call it their happy place, and I understand why. My Thai has an extensive menu and I've been able to sample a lot of it. I'll just give the highlights. But first, I'll say that the service is outstanding. If you have Juan as your waiter you will get excellent service, and he will be able to answer any question you have about the menu. Or any question about the Philadelphia Eagles. My favorite item on the menu is the crispy duck entrée. Where has this meal been all my life? I never even imagined duck could be so good, and they fry it perfectly and slice it for you. And you can pair it with either a spicy or sweet sauce. An amazing dish! My favorite appetizer is the chicken satay. They are grilled chicken skewers served with a peanut sauce. Where has peanut sauce been all my life? It's so delicious and pairs perfectly with the chicken. My Thai also has a large selection of soups. The soups are so flavorful. A unique flavor I haven't tasted elsewhere. I've tried a beef soup, a chicken soup and a shrimp soup and all were equally outstanding. Of course they also have spring rolls and dumplings that are top of the line. If you happen to be craving steak, they have you covered there as well. You can get tender filet mignon cooked to temperature that will make you wonder if you are in a steakhouse. My Thai doesn't slack off when it comes to dessert either. You can get chocolate cake, apple pie, or a sweet cream crepe. I know people that swear by the crepe, but I go back and forth between the cake and apple pie with a scoop of ice cream. Each is a top restaurant dessert. I leave My Thai completely stuffed every time. It has been a staple on South Street for many years. I have really missed out by not discovering it years ago. But I have discovered it now, and I've become a regular.

    Our waitress was so sweet! The food and ambiance was good and we will be coming back with more friends next time!

    Didn't have a great experience with the food; primarily a take-out spot for Thai food - very quiet on the weekdays even during prime dinner times. Atmosphere: Nice interior decor, feels relatively clean, and quite spacious - maybe seating for around 30 people. It was completely empty when I went in at around 7pm on a weekday, which made me a bit hesitant. Food: I tried their My Thai soup (tomato, coconut curry), but the texture was just off. You could taste some of the tomato peels, and it just was a strange experience. I've definitely had better thai soups before, which makes me hesitant to try their other Thai food Overall: 2 / 5 - price was decent, but the Thai soup texture was very strange. I might try some of their other entrees, rather than the soup, but my experience was just average; nothing outstanding.

    If I could give six stars, I would. This place was absolutely unreal. The prices would make you expect a fairly average experience, but you get so much more than what you pay for. The food is unbelievable, and there are so many options it's very easy to find something you'll love. The staff is also knowledgeable and can help make recommendations based on what you like. They can also help you make sure you don't order something too spicy to handle! The desserts are really great too. I got to try several of them. The creme brûlée was probably the best I've ever tried. The flavor was so good. The ice cream was great too. I got to try the ginger and the matcha. I'm not a huge fan of tea so I didn't think I would like it, but it was great. My fiancé and I ended up going there twice while we were in Philadelphia. It was too good to pass up. I got to order something different both nights, and there was still more on the menu that I was interested in. We will definitely be coming back next time we're in town!

    Went here with my fiancé and friend Jeffery from the coin show here in Philadelphia. We came here on 8/16/2018 & 8/17/2018. My fiancé, Rachel and I are from Kansas. This place is so incredibly good we came two nights in a row. Their Long Island ice tea is very tasty and unique; we believe it has a nice splash of OJ. Hands down the won ton soup is wonderful with delicious chicken broth, won ton/dumplings with pork meat, mushroom and cabbage. The absolute best is the peanut sauce with spring rolls. I could eat the peanut sauce with vanilla bean ice cream. The cream brûlée is INCREDIBLE!! 10/10!! We tried several different dishes and spent nearly $300 in two days (We got a LOT of food). Sad we won't be back for a while but hope this restaurant continues to please others and prosper.

    They are knowledgeable about gluten free dishes. When I'm craving Thai I just pop around the corner for some tasty Massaman curry.

    I personally always enjoy coming to Grandma's. The food has always been delicious and I'm…read morepersonally a fan of dishes coming out as soon as they're done. I do recommend making a reservation as they can be pretty slammed on Fridays/weekends. The Srirachi wings had a nice crunch to them while still keeping the chicken juicy inside. It would've been nice to have an even amount of wings to drumsticks though, as I like flats more, but thats just a personal preference. The crabmeat fried rice was amazing, a really good portion of chunks of crabmeat mixed in so each spoonful had some. The duck curry was a "Grandma's special" so a much bigger portion and cost - but reasonable. The duck wasnt dry and had a good flavor throughout, not relying on the curry to give taste. The curry also had a hint of sweetness to it which complements the greasiness of the duck. The papaya salad felt very refreshing - we got it at level one as to not overpower our taste buds with all the other food. I did get some chili pepper on the side to add in later. My one recommendation is having Thai peppers as an option instead of dried chili flakes. I much prefer the taste of fresh Thai pepper to add the extra heat. The mango sticky rice is always a favorite. The mango is soft and ripe, the right amount of sweetness. They also mix pandan in with the sticky rice for a more impactful umami (Im also a big advocate for pandan in desserts).

They were stuffed with curry chicken and potato and had great flavor. The Tom Kha soup was another standout for me. The coconut milk and lemongrass broth was flavorful, with plenty of vegetables and chicken. I also tried the salmon in a basket, which was definitely something different. I would have enjoyed it more if it wasn't spicy, but that's just my personal preference. My daughter ordered the curry shrimp skewers, crab fried rice, and crispy whole fried fish. The crispy fish was good, and we both enjoyed the crab fried rice. It had good flavor, but at $37, I personally didn't think it was $37 good. That was probably the biggest disappointment for us in terms of value. Overall, the service was good and the ambiance was dimly lit with beautiful decor throughout, we enjoyed trying different dishes and the food had some really good flavors. I'd come back to try some of the other things on the menu.

However overall it was some of the best Thai food we had in Philly and we used to live in the area years ago. We decided we had to come back and see if the food was still just as good and the results are in...IT WAS! First the customer service is still really good and the server was beyond friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself is still super quant and perfect for a girls dinner or a date night! Now onto the food! We ordered the Sexy Shrimp appetizer, Pad Thai, Dan Dan Noodles! The Sexy Shrimp appetizer was good but we weren't really a fan of the dipping sauce that came with it. It was like a chipotle dipping sauce but I think the a traditional Thai Sweet Chili would have been better. But my, my, my the Pad Thai and Dan Dan Noodles were Phenomenal! Portion size was HUGE, flavor and spice was spot on and honestly, I wish I could pick up this restaurant and move it to DC where we are located!

I love good Hendricks martini But I also do stray away from some of their original cocktails. The Chicken Pad Thai is my absolute favorite here. I always ask for spice and extra peanuts! Never disappointed. The Drunken Noodles are also a go-to favorite. Their starter options are sized appropriately so you'll have room for dinner. Bonnie & Peter are remarkable and they have an amazing staff. Xiandu is such a kind and friendly atmosphere with a beautiful ambiance both indoor and outdoor. Located right on Walnut Street you'll see beautiful views from their full bar (with two TVs) and they also have a beautiful patio with spacious seating. I would recommend Xiandu for a cute lunch, beautiful romantic dinner and a place to really come have some amazing Thai cuisine!

This time having had one visit under my belt, we decided against the chef's tasting (no hard feelings, just didn't want to end up with another whole fish) and not a single thing disappointed. We started off with the head on soft shell shrimp, mahope samut seared scallops, and burmese ginger & melon salad which were all so fresh. I think of the group my favorite was still the tasty head on soft shell shrimp. For our mains to share we tackled the all star seafood fried rice that was prepared with uni, lump crab, bay scallops, shrimp, crab fat butter, trout roe and then also had the delectable yellow curry noodle soup that featured blended coconut curry, shaved cabbage, long beans, herbs, peanuts, and we chose chicken as our protein. For two people it was MORE than enough to share and we even ended up taking home a portion of the fried rice. For desert we had the jasmine rice pudding which was to DIE FOR and really icing on the cake to a perfect meal. The service was prompt, pleasant, and the staff very frequently changed our plates and silverware which I'm coming to expect in "hard to get" restaurant experiences. The venue itself is small and intimate, but you don't feel squished in the slightest. Cannot wait to be back in another year!

First of all, I needed to change my reservation but I could not get in contact with anyone until I sent my second email since there was no phone number. When I got an email back I was informed if 4 or more people then we have to get the mandatory tasting menu. I thought that was a bit demanding. I eat a lot of Asian food especially southeast Asian food. I was expecting authentic Cambodian food but that was not the case. The food was very fusion. Most Asian dishes are served with cilantro as garnish but to my surprise the fish was garnished with parsley. None of the food was spicy. Overall the food was ok. The king fried rice was salty and mushy. The fish was overcooked. The cabbage salad was tasty. The beef skewer was good but not worth $10 each. Overall it was an average restaurant. Ambiance was great. Very cozy place.
