Best kept secret in Charles Town, this place took a little hit during Covid just like every other business they try to make a comeback. The chef is still there. Food is still decent. read more

I went here the last time I was in town and I enjoyed dining in since I don't like the smell in my hotel room. Unfortunately, they were low staff so only take out was available. Friendly staff Fast service I got to my hotel and ate the SaTay in the lobby. Dressings we're good but chicken dry, maybe that is how it's supposed to be never had before. Ate my red curry in the room with real silverware and plates. Good flavor - hot temp and hot spicy spicy . It's super sad that these restaurants have a hard time with the staff but in this area I am at I guess a stomach bug is going at around. read more

BLUF: delicious food at a fair price A friend and I went here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The service was prompt and friendly. The food was outstanding. We had the Drunken Noodles and Pad Prikh King. You could tell that each ingredient was very fresh. Vegetables were crisp and cooked just right. My dish was supposed to include black mushrooms, so I was very curious as to what I would get because most places that advertise them don't really give them to you and just substitute some other mushroom. But not here. The mushrooms were black mushrooms and where very well-made, tender with a great woodsy flavor. The entire dish was infused with a nice light Ginger flavor that carried throughout. Would definitely go back read more

COVID-19 review When we entered we were required to sanitize our hands. . All the food was made fresh. Tasted great. A little to sweet and no heat. Portions good. But lost a whole point because of this. We ordered 2 beers and the pored out the wrong color. The date on the bottle was 12/19. I had just said to my friend they must have an issue moving alcohol that's why it was on sale. But no excuse for not returning the beer to the distributor. Need a better bar manager. read more

Spicy Basil Fried Rice with Beef is soo good! Definitely a good pick for Thai Food in WV. Also, try the Volcanic Shrimp entree!!!

I am a huge fan of good Thai places and this one was an excellent choice. My wife and I came here for an early dinner. The town had just hosted a car show and by now most of the crowd had cleared out. My wife and I split the spring rolls which were nice and light and had an excellent peanut sauce to go with. For dinner I ordered green curry at a high spice level. The food had a great balance of heat and smoothness, a perfect combination over chicken, rice, and vegetables. The reason this is a 5 star for me is that the staff was very accommodating and made sure everything was great. For my fish the waitress checked on my dish's spice level, and then brought out 2 additional cups of fish and pepper spices in case I wanted to change the heat myself. Very good stuff and very good food! read more

I love love love Sumittra in Charles Town WV. Their food is delicious and their staff are courteous and friendly. My only qualm is that their food tends to be inconsistent. I don't know if it is the day of the week, or the chef but we have had smaller / larger portions plus dishes that taste completely different. The bigger issue is when they give 5/6 shrimp in their fried rice one time and only 3 another. This is something that I would like them to resolve so things that stay consistent for all customers read more

After driving for 20 mins, finding and paying for parking, they hit me with a sign "carry out only". So ridiculous.

My husband and I came here for dinner on a Saturday evening. The restaurant was about half full so we had no problem getting seated right away. There were a ton of options on the menu ranging from appetizers, salads and soups, to stir fried, noodle based, curry based or chefs choice entrees. We started with the veggie garden rolls which were filled with greens, cucumbers, avocados, and cabbage dipped in a peanut hoisin sauce, containing actual pieces of peanuts throughout. The rolls were fresh and the sauce was flavorful making for a very pleasant, tasty bite. For my entree I decided to try something different. I ordered Pad Khing- mushrooms, carrots, peppers, celery, and onions with chicken in a black bean sauce. When it came out I expected the sauce to be dark but it was more of a broth than a sauce. Whatever it was, it was delicious- there were pops of ginger, the veggies were slightly crunchy (to my liking) and the chicken was tender and moist. The portion size was way more than I could eat especially when starting with an appetizer. This may have been some of the best Thai I have had. The waiting staff all worked together and were on the same page despite having different ones taking care of us. Our main waiter allowed my husband to sample beers to see what he wanted to drink with his entree and he provided my husband with two spicy options to add to his dish after it was served - a chili powder and a fish oil with fresh chilis. Most places may not accommodate to that level! The prices were really good for the quality and quantity of food. The service was quick and everyone was helpful and friendly. If we are ever in the area, we will be back! read more

I've been here a few times for lunch-- always been able to find something tasty to eat. They have a reasonable amount of gluten free options for my friend who has celiac. I particularly enjoyed the roast duck curry-- the duck was tender and tasty, with a nicely spiced curry with pineapple and lychee. I really enjoyed the natural fruit sweetness in the curry itself. The palate of the dishes tends towards American which is understandable, but the inclusion of duck, as well as the use of tropical fruits to add subtle sweetness in the curries, lends it authenticity. Hot tea is also a nice item to order for the table as you can get refills if everyone is quite thirsty. read more

We came here to have a dinner on Saturday night. They are pretty packed. Many people who are eating her are out of state. The food is pretty good and not too salty. We had a duck spring roll. I loved the Peking Duck sauce that came with. It was nicely fried. The portion was pretty big size. Then my husband had a yellow curry. I had Trio noodle. I love the soy sauce flavors and fresh sea food. My daughters shared drunken noodle. They are a picky eater but they enjoyed the food as well. The downside is the service is super slow. The waiter is working so hard but it was too slow. I would still recommend this place because there are not much options around here. read more

Sumittra is so good! I had taken a break from Thai food after several mediocre places. But something told me Sumittra would be different. I was right! The pad Thai was fresh and made with care using quality ingredients. On top of that, the service is great. Everyone was friendly and very accommodating. I'd I ever return to Charles Town, I'll remember this place! read more

We shared four very enjoyable dishes. The fantasia duck was crispy, with a basil chili garlic sauce. The entree was tasty, but the duck fat wasn't fully rendered. Not a big deal. Next up was spicy eggplant. It had a basil chili black bean sauce, that gave a pleasant amount of heat. We added shrimp to the drunken noodles, for a nice dish. Again, there was a slightly different spicy basil sauce. By then it became clear that the restaurant loves basil and heat as a backbone to many of their dishes. It's hard to argue. Lastly, we added salmon to the panang curry. The salmon was a generous portion, and it was light and moist. The classic lime leaves, and coconut milk curry sauce is a proven winner, and they did it justice. Thai food in Charles Town? Sumittra just made me a believer. read more

The food was excellent!! Very fresh. We had the duck, which had an interesting mix of vegetables plus pineapple and lychee, and wasn't too sweet. We also had the tom kha kai - really tasty. Service was attentive and the decor is nice. read more

Great food and the team there is helpful and friendly. Tuesdays are half price wine nights and well worth it! It makes for a great social outing with groups of friends that doesn't break the bank. My favorite dishes include: crispy basil chicken (level 6 heat), sweet potato curry, cashew fried rice with chicken (level 8 heat), and the drunken noodles. You can ask for more heat so keep that in mind if you prefer something mild let them know and if you prefer something extra spicy, they will go up to a level 10 for you. read more

Love Sumittra! Great food very fresh. Good team working together, we enjoy going about once a month.

10/10. Simply great! Food, service, ambiance. Wow! Highly recommended. We will return for sure.

The best Thai food around. We're so lucky to have access to such an incredible place right in town!

Food is very expensive but for some reason they do not have enough money to hire employees. Theres always a problem with the staff, not enough people. Some nights they have to shut down because they cant run the place. Food quality is excellent. So long as theres a little bit of spice on the dinner its very good. My fave is carrots and cashews, usually with beef. Dessert is also good, I like the mango and rice. Atmosphere is nice. But its a typical family restaurant, so most nights you will hear screaming kids. I visit at least once a month. Its my special treat. read more

Update: I'm not sure what is up but the last several times we went the food wasn't as good. The noodles not cooked through and really dry rice spicy basil rice. I'm hoping it gets back to normal soon. EXCELLENT Thai dinner! We just loved our entrees. I got Kow Pad Ka Prao which was like Drunken Rice. The crispy basil on top was so good and I never go after the basil like I did here. Hun ordered Duo Basil and it was spicy and tasty. We also had the shrimp and avocado rolls and papaya salad. Just a great meal read more

I was looking forward to eating here based on the menu plus the reviews. The food is very good and well prepared. Service was great.

They definitely lowered the quality of their dishes. I have being ordering takeout lunches since the Covid-19 lockdown and not happy with the food (tried different dishes each time) they were sending. Today I wanted to try Praram Tofu with steamed broccoli, tofu was tasteless, one feel like chewing on sponge. Only dish I liked was Drunken Noodles, however last week it came sticky and soggy. From now on, unfortunately I will stop eating or ordering food from this restaurant. read more

Takeout was delicious. Kiddo enjoyed the satay chicken and edamame. Adults enjoyed drunken noodles, Panang curry, red curry, and Pad Thai. Flavors and quality seems to be on par from what I'm used to on the west coast. Would definitely go here again! read more

Best Thai food in the area. Not cheap but satisfies my cravings for good Asian food. I go with the wife on special occasions.

Food is good but portion is for little people. They serve pretty much typical Thai food catering to general American public. They don't have enough authentic Thai dishes- I guess they take the common mistake to assume general American public only want to eat dishes which soothe their stomach and that American public won't dare eat real real Thai dishes. So I recommend to those restaurant - date to put out your authentic dishes and American public are here to dish them up. Oh - stop serving your Thai portion like in Thailand .... no more portion for little people please!!! read more

Veggie rolls! Great drinks! Don't miss this one! Frederick has a great Thai place! One of my faves!

High-priced food which is mediocre at best served lukewarm by an understaffed and disinterested crew. The name of the Owner's game at this establishment is "cut costs to save as much money as possible" and it shows. There are far better thai restaurants in the area which will provide a top-notch dining experience for the top-notch money these folks will charge you. If you want more bangkok for your buck, then head elsewhere! read more

The food here is absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean with a nice atmosphere. The service was attentive.

My husband and I moved to Charles Town this summer and were so happy to find amazing Thai food near our home. The decor is modern and inviting. Our server, Kevin was fantastic, friendly, made great recommendations and described dishes well. I found the pricing inexpensive and reasonable. The portions are huge. While we didn't have any appetizers or cocktails this first trip, we plan to next time. We each ordered a dish and then shared. My husband had the panang curry with extra chicken. Holy smokes it was amazing. With a little added pepper from the spice tray, it was hard to stop eating it even though we were both full. We took home the rest and it was just as good the next day for lunch. I ordered the drunken noodles with chicken and asked for the spice at a 1 star instead of 3. At one star, it was spiced well and I dialed it up a little bit from the spice tray. Often I am disappointed with drunken noodles as it comes out too oily. Not at Sumittra! It was perfection. Previous reviews mentioned that Sumittra doesn't have their ABC permit yet - not sure when they got it but they do have it now and the bar menu looked wonderful. We were just too tired from moving to have anything other than water. We will be back frequently and plan to bring our out of town friends when they visit. read more

I am SO SO glad that I found this place! I moved to WV from NOVA a couple of months ago and was looking for good Thai food. The staff is very accommodating in terms of making certain dishes less spicy, i.e. the Drunken noodles. They are delicious here and include really fresh veggies. I have also tried the Pa-Nang curry which is really tasty and the Por Pia (spring rolls) which are nice as well. Honestly I want to try more items but I love these two entrees so much it's hard to try something new! I will keep coming back! read more

The first great Asian Fusion restaurant in Charles Town. This is very well the best restaurant in town. The decor was great, the atmosphere upbeat, busy and very trendy. We were greeted right away and seated. Service was friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was absolutely wonderful. Wonderful blend of flavors blended to create a fantastic food experience. The portions may actually be too large. They could maintain their pricing, limit their portions and still have their rating. The herbs were fresh. We had the Moo Yang, a grilled Thai style marinated pork loin served with green papaya salad, jasmine rice and Thai style sweet chili sauce. I have never had a better pork loin anywhere. It had the presentation of a steak and was perfect cooked, served hot and had a perfect searing on the outside while very moist and tasty. Beef dumpling for appetizer that tasted great and the sauce was wonderfully complimentary of the dumplings. Bangkok beef stir fry, with a hint of fresh ginger. Tasted great! I highly suggest you add this to your places to try! read more

What a cozy and welcoming place. I had tonight's special - massaman curry (mine was with tofu), the edamame starter, and Thai iced tea. The curry was, by far, the best I've ever eaten. A very generous portion with perfectly cooked potatoes and carrots, as well as a quartered avocado, and a delicious and well-spiced curry broth. The background music was just the right volume and upbeat. The service was excellent and I ended up taking half my meal home as it was, as I said, quite a generous portion. read more

Great Thai place!! Came to Charles Town for a break and found this highly rated joint. I've been to different Thai places in northern va which is way more competitive for restaurants but this Thai place does not fall behind AT ALL. Great food, service, and ambiance! We had the crispy shrimp appetizer which was excellent to start your mouth and grow your appetite. The crispness was right on and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. The sauce was also extremely savory and went perfectly with the fried shrimps. We then had pad Thai and panang which were definitely better than most places we ate in Northern Virginia. I actually cleaned the bowl of panang curry! read more

Just relocated and are big Thai fans. We were regulars at a Thai place back home and wanted to find a place here to enjoy. And wow, for my husband to say the food is better here is a big compliment! It is. It is fresh, great flavor, just the right amount of spice, and plated pretty! The staff is welcoming, and attentive. The atmosphere is cozy, and well decorated. Will be back!!! read more

I've been to so many thai places, some that are rated as the best in DC or the San Francisco Bay Area. I read the reviews and hoped they were true so I was not surprised the food here was amazing! Stopped in Saturday night at 6:00pm. We were seated quickly and the thai iced tea was fresh and not too sweet. Elizabeth our server was very attentive and nice. We ordered gyoza, yellow curry, and a cashew chicken dish. The gyoza were pretty standard but the house sauce with them and the seaweed salad were delicious and unique. The curry was the hit! My bf was eating it as soup after we'd finished all the rest. The cashew chicken stir fry was also very good! The decor is beautiful and the bathrooms are cleanly. Can't wait to visit when we're in town again! They were pretty busy when we left around 7:30 so obviously this place is a favorite. read more
