    Massaman Curry
    Rodney A.

    Just riding down the street and saw this restaurant and my family went in to check it out. The inside was super cozy, they had the fireplace going and had a nice home feel to the place. The service was OK. The lady forgot my child's ice cream. We just didn't make a big deal about it. I ordered the curry with potatoes. It was very good. The spice level was just right. Look forward to going back and trying a higher spice level next time the flavored water was a nice touch and they have a nice well stock bar with a lot of different options. Everybody's food came out good nobody had any complaints. Definitely look forward to trying this place again in the future.

    Mango Sticky Rice

    The service was prompt and respectful, the restaurant atmosphere felt like it brought some of Thailand's culture to Rhode Island, and the food was amazing! The Pad Thai was perfectly made, and they don't play when it comes to spice! after my mouth was doused in fire, the Mango Sticky Rice was exactly what i needed to calm it down! 10/10, will recommend again!

    Lychee martini

    We were visiting Newport and had dinner at NaPha Thai, which was very close to our AirBNB. We started with lychee martinis - they were fine, not very strong though. We then split the Tom Yum chicken soup, stir fry chicken with cashew nuts, and pad see ew noodles. All was good, but I would say priced a bit higher than I would expect for the location and ambiance. Service was spotty - we were not checked on often. However, I appreciate this small restaurant being available and providing a decent dinner.

    Crispy duck curry

    Crispy duck curry is the best here! The sweet lady that is always here gets our food super fast and it's always delicious. Sit by the fire, it's a very cozy romantic spot.

    Green Curry

    We arrived when there were zero people at the restaurant at 2 pm and the gentleman asked just two and I said yes, do you want to do takeout and he said no okay. They only have one fryer so we could not order spring rolls as we are vegetarian. We ordered red curry and green curry and medium spicy but he made it extra spicy. He was not interested in serving us but I did see there was a DoorDash order they prepared. The portions are very small and when I inquired if they had lunch specials he said no it is all same price which is fine! The 3.5 stars are because the restaurant is clean and food is good - give a little more curry and a lot less rice and easily 4/5

    We loved this place! Everything was delicious. Service was friendly and thoughtful. NaPha is nestled in a house and it feels like you are at someone's home. Nothing tasted like it was from a can. All freshly prepared ingredients. The red curry was absolutely amazing. So so good. Chicken satay was tender and tasty. You can't go wrong here!

    I like the full bar

    You don't get much Thai/Lao food options in Newport. I'm so glad i found NaPha! The food reminds me of meals I've have at home with my family. This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. Quality food, gracious staff and beautiful space. Highly recommend.

    I ordered Pad Thai and Crab Rangoons on a Sunday afternoon, to go. I placed an order via the website. It was ready on time and everything was given to me correctly. The pad Thai was delicious. I ordered no spice and would probably get mild next time. It had a lot of bean sprouts on top, not a personal favorite of time but totally normal for the dish. I'd ordered it again and ask for less bean sprouts next time. There was plenty of tofu included, which was my protein of choice. They also offered chicken, beef, etc. The crab Rangoon was phenomenal. The wontons were crispy and hot. The filling was creamy, with a good wonton to filling ratio (sometimes the filling can be skimpy elsewhere! I didn't find that here). The dipping sauce was light and complimented the dish well. The inside of the restaurant was spacious and had lots of plants. I would go back to dine in and I will definitely be back to get take out. Total price was around $35 for both dishes. I'd be very interested in trying the $12.95 lunch special (see menu in photo).

    Excellent. Panang curry with fried rice
    David T.

    Excellent Thai food! Located inside Rheas Inn with its own entrance. I had the Panang curry with Pork and fried rice. Most rice dishes provide choice of white or fried rice at same price. The fried rice had scrambled egg pieces and a few rice pieces were crispy. Definitely worth getting. Their spice level on the menu is from 1 to 5 's. I asked for hot (3 's). The entree and rice came super hot temperature -wise like it left the skillet 10 seconds ago. I had to wait a few minutes to cool down, but it was well worth it. The ambiance was quiet and very nice. I sat facing the window admiring the old houses across the street and sunshine so I did not pay too much attention. One note: iced tea does not have free refills. I understand Thai iced tea is no refills but $3.95 per regular tea was a bit much. No big deal I will just get water next time to go with the great food. Seriously one of the best Panang I've have had in a long time out of the last 10 cities I've been to!!

It was good crispy, nicely cooked the sauce really was a stand out for me. Well, a few of my other family members would have preferred soy sauce but a bit pricey for what it was. Not amazing, just decent. Good portion though. Everyone at the table loved the Tom Yum soup. It's not really my thing since I don't love coconut-based soups, but everyone else was raving and said it was the best they've had. I ordered the Crispy Duck and it was the highlight of the meal. The duck tasted very fresh, and CRISPY the sauce was sweet and spicy, and the greens tasted more like baked kale than fried light, not greasy, and full of flavor. Really excellent. However, it can get quite heavy as my boyfriend really liked his food, but the sauce was a bit much for him with the heaviness of the duck so just keep that in mind I thought it was fine. I liked it so personal preference. There was a small mix-up where my food was accidentally taken away and thrown out, but the staff handled it well and made me a smaller batch to go. I was a little bummed not to get all the extra greens I'd saved, but they genuinely tried to make it right. I also kept changing my mind on my main dish once I realized something was coconut-based, and the staff was incredibly patient and kind the whole time. Great food, great service, and definitely worth coming back.

The chicken satay with peanut sauce was excellent...generously sized chicken skewers with very tasty slight sweet peanut sauce. The Crab Rangoon was also excellent. My friend is more of fan of these than I am and didn't plan on eating more than one, but these were so flavorful and crispy...maybe the best crab Rangoon I've had. The Vietnamese Boon with beef lemongrass was great! I loved that the beef was cut into small pieces/shreds. The beef had so much flavor there was almost no need to add the sweet/sour sauce to the noodles. The sweet/sour sauce was excellent too. I would have liked a bit more cilantro on the boon, but that 's my personal preference. I can't comment on the decor/ambiance because my friend went in to get the take out order. The street it is located on is very small/narrow so I had to stay in the car in case I needed to move it (since I was blocking the street). The pick up was so quick I didn't need to move the car.

The chicken satay was excellent. Very juicy and flavorful. If the same chicken was in my ramen, I probably would give this place a five star review. The curry ramen was filled with a spicy flavorful broth and a healthy serving of accoutrements but the chicken was very dry. Given that was my only complaint and the woman who served me was extremely gracious, mountain moose earns my recommendation. Note, if you're looking for massamam curry, just go to a Thai restaurant.

For parking, if you can get street parking, that would…read morebe ideal; however there is a parking lot right next to the restaurant, which charges $30 for the first two hours. I got here around 4 pm and the parking situation wasn't honestly an issue. The music isn't over powering and the overall layout makes it seem very homey. depending on where you sit you have a nice view of the kitchen where the chefs are diligently preparing the food. The starter bread is nice and dense with good flavor, it reminds me of a sour dough. The olive oil that comes standard at the table is robust and has a very nice flavor to it. I ordered the pasta bolognese, the taste and acidity of the sauce is pretty standard, a little on the acidic side but i tend to enjoy it like that. The house made pasta (or whichever kind of pasta is used) is well picked. The pasta picks up the sauce well and the mouthfeel is hard to beat; I want to attribute that to the house made aspect of it. I also got one of their seasonal cocktails called the paper plane which was refreshing. It was a little tart, definitely tastes of grape fruit with the lemon garnish also contributing to the taste. However I'm not sure how well it paired with pasta alla bolognese. To finish I got the crème brûlée. For me it's always a toss up between that and key lime pie every time so when a place offers both I usually have to flip a coin. For those who have had crème brûlée, it's overall a pretty simple dessert. The portion size was a huge plus for me. The sugar top had just a hint of burnt taste (obviously!) but you could really tell; and that is something I honestly don't mind. As for the crème it was nice, light, smooth with a hint of lemon I think. The staff are very friendly and attentive. I'm typically a solo diner but at least from what I saw they are capable of accommodating parties of about 10 so long as you call ahead first to let them know. I have to assume given the time of year it's "less packed" than normal because outdoor dining is pretty much not an option in march. This is my first time in the state of Rhode Island and subsequently the first time in Newport. I found them out through the Resy app, and decided to give it a shot. In all honestly because of the vibes, the food and the area, if you are ever in the area I would definitely try this spot out for some pretty good Italian. P.S I want to apologize for only posting the dessert, I'm just getting back into food posting. Sorry!

We easily made a reservation a few days ahead of time for a table of 6. The table was ready early, and that was good. We were early. Seated immediately and excellent service throughout the night. We talked a lot and were slow to order. The server was patient and checked in regularly but didn't rush us. When we ordered the food was delivered almost instantly. I tried the tagliatelle bolognese and really liked it. I also had pepperoni pizza and loved it. It was an almost perfect Neapolitan pizza diavola with just a little American flair in the pepperoni. Crust was crispy chewy as it should be and the sauce was perfect. A++ pizza! The prices are extremely fair for downtown, and the food is top 10% or better. Good enough that I'd say if you visit Newport and eat out you better try Pasta Beach - it's in the top 1-2 must try places for me!

They have a…read morevariety of soups, noodles, meat and vegetable based dishes so we are always trying something new here! The staff are kind and food comes out in a timely manner. The restaurant has a very calming atmosphere inside and while small, even has outdoor seating. Drinks/apps: we always start off with Thai iced teas, these are a must. They are sweet but not overly so, and go very well with any dish you order. We also love the spring rolls, mango fresh rolls, and our favorite, the curry puffs. They are flakey and filled with sweet/savory vegetable flavors. Of course we also get the edamame because it's a nice little snack. Entrees: my current favorite is the malay noodle soup, it comes out steaming hot and is so creamy and filling. There is plenty of beef and wonderful steamed broccoli that soaks up the flavor of the soup. I also love the Rad Na, which is an assortment of steamed vegetables in a gravy-like curry. This one is perfect for colder months, since it really warms you up. My bf has gotten various curries and the vermicelli trio which he has enjoyed very much as well. Dessert: we haven't tried any dessert here because we end up getting so full from the other dishes! Each time we go I anticipate that I will need to be carried out, because I will probably go into a food coma. TL;DR: For those visiting Newport, do not pass up trying this place if you're not in the mood for the overwhelming amount of seafood restaurants located here. You can't really go wrong with any dish, make sure to get Thai iced teas and you will leave really full and happy :)
