Thai in love special fried rice w/shrimp
Scott K.

We've been coming here for a few years now. We eat in and take out. The service when eating in is always attentive. It's a small and fairly intimate space. Historically, everything we've had has been excellent. However, last night, the food was mediocre. I would guess they had a new cook, but I don't know for sure. We got pad Thai, spicy basil stir fry, fresh rolls, and Thai in love special fried rice with shrimp. The fresh rolls were good, much smaller than usual. The pad Thai was ok, dryer and smaller portions than in the past. The fried rice was bland, nothing special about it. I didn't have the spicy basil. I'm hoping it was just a part time new cook this time, otherwise likely the last time there.

Pad Thai Noodle with Crispy Chicken
Brittany P.

Cute decorations! Unfortunately, this order of pad thai with crispy chicken was inedible. The noodles had an odd smell that turned my stomach. Luckily, the gracious server allowed me to return it and get something else - Pad See U. Very good choice, great flavor.

From the outside, Thai In Love is pretty non-descript. They even have an old diner sign pointing down on the building. Its next to a gas station, and the parking lot spaces are a bit non-defined. But inside, it's adorable. Love (or symbols there of) are everywhere. There are boths and tables, and the check even came out on a candy heart plate! That alone is delightful. But then the food - yum! I don't even eat Thai that often and I knew I was getting quality ingredients and excellent cooking. The pad Thai with shrimp had well cooked shrimp and noodles. The crab ragoons were very cheesy. They were also a different type of shape them I normally see at Chinese restaurants. The shrimp on the beach were a bit messy to eat, but they were on a tray and again, well cooked. A great meal and experience!

Spicy Thai basil chicken
Steven B.

Fire dish! Very good and great amount of spice. It tasted fresh and would definitely get their food again. Inside was small and kitchen looked out of sorts as it also looked like they were performing their own maintenance. The service was alright while they weren't very busy. The food topped the experience.

Visited here from TN. Food was amazing! Portion size was perfect and atmosphere is super friendly.

The small places are always the best! This gem of a Thai restaurant was well worth it!

It's not too often I get to go back and revisit my reviews, but yesterday I think I've had enough…read morechange in opinion about ThaiBowL (still can't get over that capital L) that I think an update is an order. This was originally review 148 (149 if you want to count the one review I had that had been deleted) out of all the reviews I've done. Before I get into what changed, I will point to the one thing I stand most by: the Crab Rangoon. This time I had it served to me on a plate, with a separate section for the plum sauce, and this time I had a small pile of shredded carrot and a leaf or two of greens. My opinion about the Crab Rangoon remains the same, which is to say they're outstanding. The plum sauce I've come to learn is the sweetest part of the dish and was a big reason as to how the dish ended up being so sweet. The filling to breading ratio is top-notch, the breading is crispy without feeling like I'm eating mushy bread, and the flavor of the filling is divine. So into what changed. You might have gotten the hint when I talked about the plating of the Crab Rangoon, but I dined in this time, and honestly, it's much better to eat this in the restaurant than to just go to the take-out window. If you have time and are in Watertown, I would definitely recommend parking your car and coming in. It's a cozy interior that's very casual. It's not quite at the level of fine dining, but it is still an intimate place to eat, maybe even romantic. It's very well-decorated, and the employees here are very friendly. Would I say they treat you like family? Ehhhhh..... I don't know about that one, but maybe the next step down it's a little clearer. As for what else I had this time around, please give a warm welcome to the Thai Iced Coffee, the Red Duck Curry with white rice, and the Fried Ice Cream! The Red Curry is spicy, but not unbearably so. The Iced Coffee actually pairs perfectly with this to cool down the heat (I actually had to order 2 of those coffees believe it or not). The duck was crispy and tender at the same time and the vegetables in the curry were for the most part great. My only knock on the dish would be the eggplant. That did come out mushy, but luckily there were only like 2 slices of it, so it wasn't a big deal. You can use the spoon they provide to ladle some of that sauce onto the rice, which actually gives the rice more flavor. As for the Iced Coffee, it was a great coffee and I would definitely have this iced coffee any time I come here and have one of their curries. Does it carry the whole meal on its own? No. But as a drink to help balance things out, it's a winner. As for the fried ice cream, they did phenomenal. You actually have to let the ice cream melt slightly to get into it because the ice cream inside the coating is still cold enough to be hard to cut into with a spoon. But it was a delicious dessert to end things off on. I would like to have this with chocolate ice cream, but that's just a personal preference and not sure how that would work. lol I think now that I've had the full restaurant experience here, I can safely say I was a little harsh giving this a 4 the last time around, and even that was still a good meal. The ambiance, the service, and the fact I got to try more things I ended up liking enough to recommend to others was enough for me to bring this up to the full 5. This will definitely be my Waterbury area option for Thai food going forward.

The food was alright, the flavor wasn't as strong like what I'm used to. If you don't like spice,…read morethis might be good for you. I would say the best thing were the spring rolls since they tasted fresh and the sauce was flavorful. Service was fast. If you're doing takeout make sure you ask for multiple utensils or else they'll only give you one. The outside was nice and had outdoor seating.

I've heard great things about The Green Papaya for years, but our expectations were far exceeded…read moreafter a meal here. We didn't know that they sold Belgian chocolates until we arrived, and we thought that was so unique and a fun representation of the cultures of the owners. We felt right at home here, and Dirk couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful with suggestions. We were feeling adventurous and tried items from their authentic Thai specialities menu, and were so glad that we did. My husband tried the northern Thai style larb, which Dirk told us has herbs harvested from mountains of Thailand in it, and my husband loved it so much he declared it the best dish he's tried so far this year. We were happy with everything we tried, and the chocolate tiramisu was so good for dessert. You can't come here and not take some chocolate home! We already can't wait to come back, and we enjoyed supporting such a passionate business.

I've eaten here 3 times. The duck dishes are excellent. Sauce in Crispy Duck is mild. Everyone…read morecan eat it. Basil Duck has more flavor. The Papaya Salad Laos was VERY VERY salty, as in "not edible salty." I threw it out after 2 bites. If you have high blood pressure, don't eat this. I've had this before in a Loatian restaurant, and it's usually not this salty. I think it may have been prepared incorrectly. Double salted by accident? That's the only explanation I can think of. I hope they fix it. Get the Thai version - it's milder.
