Rainbow Thai is just plain delicious. They are excellent for in-house dining and take-out alike. The food is consistently perfect. The staff are kind and very prompt on delivery. I've begun to order from Rainbow Thai at least once a week! read more

I moved here from Chicago, living a block from my favorite Thai place (not an accident) four years ago. I have been searching far & wide for those 4 years to find MY Thai restaurant. RAINBOW THAI IS IT! I'm home! Pad Woon Sen is my jam. My husband loves Sweet & Sour steak. The dumplings are great. Can't go wrong! read more

Really good spot, I ordered the chicken pad Thai and the spicy rice and chicken. I thought the chicken pad Thai was pretty good, one of the best we've tried. The ambiance and the restaurant was nice and welcoming. The spicy basil rice was pretty good, not super spicy read more

We were looking for good Thai and a friend recommended this place highly. For me, pad Thai is a decent way to gauge the quality of Thai food. It's simple but also easy to mess up. Theirs is really good, not oily or dry. Also had the ginger shrimp which was great, and the fried ice cream. Their curry menu page also looks diverse and interesting for next time. The staff also were friendly and helpful. Best part maybe is the bright interior with a view over the Saugatuck river and the bridge. Lots of tables for four, five or six of them next to the tall windows. Only negative is parking. They're in the L-shaped building with Dunkin at opposite end and this place 2-3 doors from bridge. If you can't find parking in the small complex, definitely worth parking and walking over. read more

The BEST Thai food. Period. They must have just adjusted delivery area bc it was our first time, and blew away the usual Thai spots from where we have had delivery. read more

We are long time customers but the service and food quality has declined recently. Our last two orders had errors. In fact, the last one was completely wrong. When I called to inform them of the mistake, I was told that it was impossible that a mistake had been made and that they would not refund my purchase. It was too late in the evening to replace the order. We used to love this place but now will not return. read more

This food makes me want to dance. Hits the spot. Every. Single. Time! I come here all the time and felt like it deserved a review from me, I seriously recommend this place and the drunken noodle is outstanding! Best Thai restaurant in CT! read more

Rainbow Thai - Thai Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

After half day hiking in a Connecticut state forest, we were craving for some Thai food near the Stamford area. Much to our surprise, there are several good options. After checking some previous reviews, we decided to tried our luck here. The restaurant is located next to a river with a view. We ordered red curry and pineapple fried rice and both are in decent portion. The food is delicious, although one chilly sign is kinda spicy for us. The inside decor is cozy and the service is attentive. It was a pleasant afternoon dining after some outdoor activities in the morning. read more

Food was excellent. My husband chose the spiciest thing on menu, jungle curry and was not disappointed. The sweet corn soup was delicious.

A tasty and solid Thai place. A guest and I came in for lunch recently. Service was prompt and water refilled. Always a good sign when you bring the spice. The scallion pancake was big and tasty. More like a Vietnamese crepe that is often served, but it worked and was filled with pork, shrimp and other goodies. The Sambal Chicken had a good flavor as well, though truth be told, I've had that type of dish many times before. Nothing wrong with it but nothing inspired either. The corn soup is a bit like the chicken & corn soup you find at Chinese restaurants. And pretty good too. Rich broth and would get it again. Add to that a nice view of the river and you have an enjoyable little place with reasonable lunch prices. read more

I came here with some family yesterday, several having mixed food preferences/restrictions. Rainbow Thai had a great selection of Thai favorites and curries. The corn and Tom Kha soups were great starters. Despite being a small restaurant, we were seated easily. They have a pleasant waterfront view on the river. read more

Their red curry chicken was perhaps one of the best Thai curries I've had in a while. It was hot, spicy, and fresh. It was worthy of making my eyes watery and my nose runny. The interior of this restaurant is nicely decorated. It's a little bit nicer than your average Thai restaurant but yet it is casual and comfy. It's kinda small so several customers had to wait for tables to become available. For some reason, many Westport families were bringing their entire families here, kids and all. It seemed to be a popular restaurant when I visited, with both the sit-down customers and take out customers. Many customers were repeat customers because the staff knew many of them. read more

Ordered delivery tonight. I've had a number of Thai restaurants in the Norwalk/Wilton/Westport area over the past 18 months. By far the best noodle dishes we've had in the area (pad soon den, pad Thai, drunken noodle). Will be our exclusive delivery option from now on. read more

Top Thai restaurant in area Ate at the restaurant tonite Crowded but comfortable seating with great view of river Shrimp summer rolls outstanding Papaya salad really spiced and excellent I had the basil stir fry with veggies and tofu and really enjoyed the wonderful fresh taste and flavors This is a great place!!! read more

Good, solid Thai food. I didn't love the texture of the chicken satay but everything else we had was good.

Nice view. Food was pretty good. Very good service. Got there when the place opened & it smelled weird.

Visited this place due to the reviews I read and also a recommendation from a colleague at work. I think the reviews on here are highly over rated or may they changed the chef. The food is sooo basic, the only nice thing about the restaurant is the view. The fried fried rice wasn't tasty, my friend ordered the chicken curry and it was bleh.even the spring roll wasn't interesting. read more

Rainbow Thai - Thai Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

After a complicated evening, our meal was delivered quickly by a friendly young man. The food was delicious, warm and not over sauced at all (my pet peeve is too much sauce.) The vegetables rolls were lightly deep fried with fresh food inside- delicious. The Pad See Ew (glass noodles) has a wonderful sauce and the Ginger dish with vegetables was fantastic, I had it with brown rice. I recommend this restaurant. Delivery Note: call them direct, don't use a service- you'll get your meal much more quickly. read more

So, I have been wanting to try them for a while now. I ordered lunch, I get it, portions are usually smaller, as you pay less for lunch, but portion was absolutely tiny. I also ordered regular size soup it was 3/4 full and I said "no" to chicken, one would expect at least a few more cherry tomatoes, there was one lonely tomato swimming in my soup. read more

Great thai food for a great price. The amount of choices was surprisingly good for a thai restaurant and the location was very homey--right next to the water. I would highly recommend the Pad Se Ew, as it is one of the better ones I have had. Always order the dinner portion if you are hungry, because the portions itself are a bit on the light side. Other than the food the atmosphere, setting, and service were excellent and I could not praise the staff any higher. My only complaint about the setting is that we were sat in the left corner of the restaurant, which is like a dark, dark dungeon. But the food made it worthwhile. read more

Food was great but it was a little too noisy. Had the Masaman curry and Drunken Noodles...YUM!

So they did out the rice in for my mom for her to go box this time. Oops! Love the tofu curry dishes. read more

Rainbow Thai - Beautiful place! - Thai Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

I love Rainbow Thai, the food is really good and the water views are spectacular with a very friendly and accommodating staff. My family and I have visited the restaurant for a couple of years and we love it. The place is small but nice. The only reason I don't give the restaurant 5 stars is because it can be a challenge to find parking. read more

Consistently excellent for delivery. Probably even better for dining in. We love the curries, soups, and drunken noodles.

I have been eating and ordering out since Rainbow Thai opened. The food is consistently delicious and the staff are very accommodating. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Very savory food! The pad Thai with shrimp is my favorite. The location is nice, perfect for lunch or a date in the evening and the staff is very kind and friendly. read more

Rainbow Thai - Thai Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

This place is fantastic! Had a roti which was great, and drunken noodle. I asked for the drunken noodle to be spicy and it was so spicy it was almost inedible...just the way I like it! Beware for those not used to spice though. The dishes were still hot when I received my delivery order. Highly recommend read more

Not even sure where to start. Worst Thai experience I've had around here. Delivery - fast no doubt but forgot my extra peanut sauce and my spring rolls. Chicken satay- cold undercooked Nam Tok - chewy beef tiny portion soggy lettuce Padded - forgot chicken just overcooked vegetables and soupy no flavor. Red curry- soupy no flavor. Barely any chicken - random veggies and green beans too. Not what the menu described at all. Even the rice tasted old like it had been sitting under a hot lamp for a long time read more

My wife once asked me long ago, "what do you miss most about california ?" my answer,"the weather, a store named Trader joe's, and authentic Thai food." Now with the opening of Rainbow Thai, 2/3 ain't bad!! read more

At the end of this Thai rainbow is a pot of gold known as panang curry. It was the yummiest curry I've had in the U.S. and it came closest to the food I had in Thailand. It was very fresh, spicy, and bright tasting. The green papaya salad was also very good--not too sweet (something I too often encounter) and a good balance of flavors. I got the sticky rice to go with and a glass of Shiraz and I was happy. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive. read more

I love Thai, and this place is as good as it gets. The best thing about this place is that I can get any dish Mild, Medium, Spicy, Extra Spicy, or Extra EXTRA spicy. Shrimp Pad Thai is amazing. So is their Pra Raam Chicken which made with cashew nuts, vegetables and peanut sauce. I usually get sticky rice on the side. As an appetizer I usually get the Roti Canai which is multi layered bread served with chicken curry. I've only done take-out from here, but the restaurant is quaint and the staff is very nice. read more

I read the reviews, I ate there, I mulled it over. Is it fantabulous? No. Is it very good, yes. Will I be back. Probably. They had a nice bar. Reasonable wine list and great service. For this part of the world, I would say it was a home run. Place was small and the views not as fun as you would think. Service was quite nice. Overall a solid B. My only issue was the roti chanai wasn't hot enough. I should have asked them to heat it more. read more

Without a doubt, the best pad thai I've ever had! It simply couldn't have been any better. Perfect amount of sauce and garnish, beautifully plated, and a very generous portion. I've had several curries, soups, salad, and apps here and everything has been incredible. The service is friendly, unobtrusive, and eager to please. The restaurant is on the small side but very open with very minimal and nondescript but tasteful decor. A bonus is the great view of the Saugatuck river. Prices are typical of $$ Asian restaurants with great lunch deals and $$$$ quality! read more

Rainbow Thai - The legendary Pad Thai. A must try! - Thai Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

I had dinner there with my family last night. Was my first time there and would happily go back! The service was excellent. The restaurant was very clean. The good was delicious. My sister ordered the Drunken Noodles. They were great, as expected. Dad had the Red Snapper which everyone agreed was the winner for best dish tonight. My mom had crispy duck which was wonderful too. I enjoyed the stuffer pancakes but wouldn't order it again, because there were so many other items which looked very appetizing. read more

I am a big Thai fan, and I've been a patron here once, a couple of weeks ago. Three friends and I went one night, after regular dinner hours, and were seated in the quiet restaurant, overlooking the water. The seats along the windows have excellent waterviews. Just like I have to try cheese/margarita pizza when I eat at a new pizza place, and have to try chicken tikka masala when I eat at a new Indian restaurant, I have to try pad thai at a new Thai place. This was one of the best I have had, the exception being the pad thai I had at a market in London. There are some excellent Thai places in this area, but this once topped my list of thai places. My friends had the drunken noodles, and massaman curry, and I tried both, which were excellent. The Massaman, another favorite, was thicker than I am used to, which I prefer. It bonded to the rice quite well. The pad thai had just the right amount of sweetness, tartness from the lime, and nuttiness from the peanuts. The portions were excellent, more than enough for someone who can eat myself sick. Looking forward to the next visit so I can give more useful information here! read more

Absolute favorite Thai in all of CT. The PAD SEE EW is a gluten free option as well as the PAD THAI (can't go wrong with either). You have the option to make either of the dishes vegetarian by exchanging the meats for Tofu (which I highly recommend). The views of the bridge is so pleasant while enjoying the Buddha decor. Tranquil experience authentically Thailand read more

Sorry, but never again. We went for dinner enthused by the reviews. Appetizers were served cold (they were supposed to be hot). Chicken in the main course was sent back as it tasted as if it had been cooked many hours before, and had been reheated just before serving. It had literally no taste whatsoever. The beer was cold. But the food was a dud. And the locale, while it has potential because it's next to a quaint bridge, was a typical stale fly-by-night "Asian" cheap-o restaurant - with high prices. Sorry, but we cannot recommend. read more

This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Connecticut! It's a great place to go with family, friends, or a date. Food is good and affordable. The staff are super nice and attentive. I also love coming here to see gorgeous view of the Saugatuck River and the bridge. I would suggest coming here during the daytime-dusk to see the view. read more

incredible Thai food. This place goes the extra mile in recreating some of the amazing dishes that I had while in Thailand. They make a really great sambal sauce for their spicy dishes. Everything my wife and I had was superb and the staff is super friendly. We spoke with a few of them and they are from all over SE Asia (Thailand, Malaysia). It's a nice cozy place to talk as well. As most of the orders for the place appeared to be take out, we had most of the dining area to ourselves. it's right on the water, so take one of the window seats, be as loud or quiet as you want and enjoy the view! GREAT FOR FAMILIES: We don't have kids, but this strikes me as an amazing place to escape your kitchen with the family... read more
