2025 Spring specials
Jenny T.

I was looking for a good Thai restaurant near my neighborhood. Then I saw Thai Nam Phet. Their satay chicken is soft and tasty. The sauce is not the thick one but pretty flavorful. The store outside is very cute, with Thai flavored interior decor. We ordered Hoy Kra Prow from their Spring specials. The mussels were delicious and juicy; and the roasted chili sauce really went well with the mussels. I really enjoyed their chicken fried rice. It might seem like a simple dish, but to find a place that cook good fried rice is not easy. The staffs were very friendly - coming to check with us three to four times, and getting our orders right. I am glad I found a good Thai with reasonable price.

our go-to thai in the area! their thai iced tea is classically delicious; all the duck dishes are sublime, especially the tamarind duck & curry duck/salmon offerings. service is always prompt & friendly; the food always hits & the ambiance is cozy. worth a trip if you're in the neighborhood & in the mood for good eats.

We were on our way back from a party in Nj and wanted to grab dinner. I found this spot on Yelp and with the reviews, thought it would not be that bad. So first the restaurant is so outdated. There are wooden plank wall panels meshed with blue booth couches, it looks so bizarre. The restaurant just did not look modern. The service however was excellent and attentive. The food on the other hand, left little to be missed. We ordered the chicken satay, which were 3 skewers and was so dry and bland. The peanut sauce was mediocre, I've had better. We also ordered a coconut based soup, which was actually good! And then got the chicken green curry which was so watery and barely had any flavor. It was so watered down and diluted. It was perhaps one of the worst green curry I've ever had. Sad as I had high hopes for this spot, however this completely missed the mark. The service was the only good spot.

I've been coming here since I was little, it's always had the same top tier quality: delicious food, super kind and attentive staff, very beautiful and clean restaurant itself. a must try in my book is their hoy krapow (mussels), my dad and i call the sauce liquid gold lol.

Best Thai restaurant around I think! They do classic Thai dishes really well and their own signature dishes, especially the royal chicken. Perfect spice level, great service, lots of specials. I love their sauce plate. This place is pheNAMenal!

Went for Friday night (8/23/24) dinner. Informal ambiance, moderate noise level, very friendly service, excellent food. Ordered mussels in sweet chilly sauce: superb sauce, which went well with curry puffs we also ordered which were a bit dry. Entrees were crispy duck and seafood plate, again both superb. I also ordered a Thai ice coffee with coconut milk: very sweet, very tasty, perfect for after finishing spicy food. Asked for medium spicy, and got just what we wanted. A family run operation, a real gem. I'm adding it to my list of top local restaurants. Highly recommended.

Grilled Steak Salad
Rikki G.

Absolutely delicious food! Been ordering from Thai Nam Phet for a little while as it's very close to work and they never disappoint. Ordered the grilled steak salad for the first time ever today and not only was it delicious, the presentation for a take out salad was beautiful! Ordered my usual lunch special # 11 the drunken noodles and as always they give you a good amount of food for a lunch special plus the tom yum soup that comes with it is the best I've ever tasted!

This place was on our list to try and we came here for dinner last week, the place did not disappoint. We were greeted as we entered, it is not a huge spot and looks like run as a family business. Our server was super nice and accommodating. We ordered a couple of things(fried rice, pad kra pow, drunken noodles and Thai ice tea), everything was super flavorful and delicious. It's not common now a days to have a restaurant bring out a side assortment for spicy sauces which was great to see( I sometime like my food with a little more kick:)) We would definitely be coming back here.

Red Curry
Ashna M.

Thai Namphet restaurant is a gem with amazing service and a cute, chic decor that enhances the dining experience. The red curry is packed with flavor, the drunken noodles are a must-try, and the Thai dim sums simply melt in your mouth. A definite go-to spot for delicious Thai cuisine in a charming setting! Spl. shout out to their server Titang for his amazing recommendations and on point service

Shrimp papaya salad

Place looks like a diner which is cute. Service was great! Loved the ambience. Food was very good. We will be back!

Khing Sod (Young Ginger) with Chicken
Sean L.

We'll, another trip to the area so I thought I'd give Thai Nam another go. This time I got the garden salad with ginger dressing and Pad Thai with chicken 1 Star. The garden salad was very fresh and the ginger dressing was out of this world and they didn't skimp on it either. The pad Thai was very good. It was slightly burnt as some other reviewers have said, but it wasn't distasteful and actually grows on you as you eat it. The one star spice was perfect. I used to do five stars but have cut back as I've gotten older. I like the flavor and a slight kick but not misery. When I get one star, sometimes I'll ask for something to boost it, but this didn't need it. Overall, I'd give this trip a 4.5 star review.

First time here!

Look. Others have said it for years and years. The crowds every night are telling. This place is a…read morelocal institution. The last couple of times I tried to come here, the wait was out the door, so long that my group bailed. So I called tonight, just two people, and we went right in with no wait! Third time's the charm. This place is as charming on the inside as it is on the outside. If it seems overdone on the outside (make sure to enjoy the live koi!), it gives way to tasteful elegance on the inside. There is no dress code, but don't wear shorts or a T-shirt. Level up a bit. For those who remember Chengdu 46, that's what it's like here - upscale ambiance without being a gourmet restaurant. That said: this is gourmet cuisine. I ordered from the full page of Chinese authentic recipes: Szechuan boiled stew - with beef as it is the traditional meat, I was told. SIde of rice, extra spicy. When it came out, presentation: 10/10. My stars, that was enough food for an entire family. I took my first bite and immediately stopped responding to the outside world. How was my food? I nodded. Other than more water and requesting a second bowl of rice (which was gladly provided at no fee), I went through pretty much the entire gigantic platter in one go. That. is five stars. My mother said chicken and mixed vegetable was 5 stars delicious. The only flaw was too much starch in the sauce, but a review later confirmed that traditional Chinese sauce does use a lot of starch. Authentic through and through. And if you couldn't tell from this, service is also gourmet. You are greeted immediately, escorted straight to your seat, and water appears. Utensils appear. WIth the size of this restaurant and the population ordering inside, there is almost always a staff member walking by your table. If they don't notice you need something, all you have to do is signal or ask, and it will be yours. Chopsticks. More water. More rice. To-go container. Young, old, different dress, we had at least 8 different people come by at some point for something. Spectacular. Out came the bill. In the end, it wasn't all that much for the quantity and quality of food that we got. Now I'm forewarned next time I come: bring my appetite. And more people to share all the food. Join me.

Had a catering order, and they came with heat trays, lots of food, and plenty of help - which was…read moresuper disruptive to the meeting since they couldn't figure out how to set it up without talking through the meeting. American Chinese food was ok, though much of it was still off-temperature due to the commute over. The rice and noodle was just-ok. Not as good flavor as an AJ Bistro. Gold coin steak was saucy, yes, but meat was tough. General cho's was soggy. The more authentic Chinese dishes, though, were much better - the xiaolongbao were good, BBQ spare ribs people liked (I found too dry and lacked flavor in the middle of the rib meat, needed more marination), Shanghai bok choy with mushroom was great, lobster & scallion was excellent. Seared green beans were good. Overall, mixed bag on dishes - I think it'll be better when I go to eat in-person.

I've also had friends recommend it, so I was very happy that my wife and I had an opportunity to have dinner there last night. This is a relatively small restaurant right in the heart of Denville with indoor and outdoor seating. On a Wednesday night it was relatively quiet and we didn't need a reservation. The menu is really varied with lots of different options, many on the healthy side. We started off by sharing an appetizer of Chicken Lemongrass Dumplings. These were delicious with a nice spice to them. For entrees, my wife had the chicken and eggplant and I had almond encrusted salmon. Both were very good, if I had to order again, I would have chosen my wife's dish instead. That said, the salmon served with mashed potatoes and spinach was still very good. Prices are very reasonable. Parking is easy with a lot nearby. Denville is one of my favorite towns and Cafe Metro will be a place I'll be coming back to!

The atmosphere of the restaurant is bright and cheerful with artists pictures on the walls which are also for sale. The quiche and salad combination was a winner.

We stopped in here a little early for dinner, right around 5pm, and the mall and the restaurant were pretty empty. It was hard to get a feel for how the restaurant might feel when full, but the lights were low (not dark) and it seemed like it could get loud when packed. We were seated right away by a very friendly hostess and the bartender/waitress was over pretty quickly. She came over and made a couple excellent recommendations for drinks and we put in an order for pork dumplings. She came back over and we then placed our entree orders. I had the Mongolian Trio and my wife ordered the Orange chicken. The pork dumplings were great. Our drinks were great. The entrees were a mix. My wife loved her orange chicken - it was tender and had lots of flavor. My meal - fried chicken, shrimp, and beef was cooked a bit too long which made it a bit tough and the sauce was pretty salty. Because of previous meals years ago and because my wife's meal was very good, I'm gonna go with this was just a bad day with my meal and leave it at that. Our server was FANTASTIC - super friendly and helpful and we had a very good experience other than my entree. I'll go back and give them another shot.
