#7 for 2025
The overall service is generally good. The girls working the tables are polite and nice. Are attentive too making sure our drinks are filled. Parking is easy in this strip mall shared with NY Pizza.
This Sunday evening was exceptionally busier than normal with most tables occupied when we entered. We were told to choose our table and settled into the last booth by a window. The menus were brought over but the water was not until after we ordered. I think they skipped a rhythm in their service.
As busy as it was, and I saw a larger party submit their order before ours, the dishes came out quick. It was just my wife and I tonight. She was a bit under the weather so tonight's dinner was catered to her.
TOM YUM CHICKEN $13
An excellent starter for a chilly evening to warm up our appetite. Loved the spicy lemon grass and lime flavor with the chicken and mushroom. Really helps the throat feel better too.
BEEF SALAD $14
The Sliced beef marinated with lime juice, fresh chili, onion, tomatoes, and cucumber on a bed of lettuce is quite good on its own. I enjoy it better poured over my rice not to waste any of that good flavor from all the juices.
SPICY CRISPY CHICKEN $13
This was a new dish for me. As many items I've had over the decades with Thai food it did not disappoint. The crispy chicken skin, bell peppers, beans with the spicy Thai curry sauce was nice and crunchy.
On previous visits we've had other dishes and were also good.
PAD SEE EW $14
I always get this with chicken to go with the flat rice noodles stir-fried with broccoli and egg. Place this over your rice then drizzle with soy and chili for added flavor. Could use a little more meat.
GARLIC SHORT RIBS $13
Can't go wrong with ribs cooked with black pepper and garlic. That's a winning combination all day long.
PAD PED CATFISH $16
This deep fried catfish stir-fried in spicy chili paste sauce is another of my favorites. Just thinking about that spicy taste makes my mouth drool. The Spicy Fish is about the same but uses tilapia instead of catfish. I feel the catfish comes off better in this cooking method than the tilapia.
RED CURRY $13
All the curries are good but our go to is the red curry. Love the basil in there and wish there was a little more. Try their pineapple and pumpkin curries too. Those are not seen at other Thai restaurants so it's a bit of a treat to have them here.
MANGO W/STICKY RICE (SEASONAL)12
If you're new to the Thai cuisine a must to try is the Mango Sticky Rice. Fresh sweet Mango served with sweet sticky rice and coconut milk topped with dried mung bean. That's a nice treat especially on those hot summer nights.
What I like about Thai Diamond is their $12 lunch specials, Monday to Friday, from 11am to 3pm. They have a larger selection than most that includes garlic pork ribs, sweet & sour chicken, Thai bbq chicken, Thai bbq spare ribs, chicken pad thai and several more options to choose from.
Now that i'm finish with this review I have a sudden urge to go back tonight. read more
