Really good food and what I will call a "classic" atmosphere. Although it is somewhat spendy, you will not find good Thai food anywhere else near here. The menu is typical, and they were totally fine making a dish with tofu for me, rather than meat. There is a full bar, although I did not have a cocktail, so I can't say how good they are. The service was amazing, along with the presentation of the food. Going back soon! read more

I came for the rave reviews and was disappointed. I've long been a patron of Stang of Siam and prefer their panang curry which is actually cheaper. The location is sketchy and the decor felt a little old. It gets two stars for the fast and attentive service. read more

What's the not to Love? This place is my absolute Fav Thai Spot! This family owned business is so quaint. The staff knows your name and your favorite dishes to order! Carry Out is great but dinning in is #Everything! The extensive menu is awesome and so is the cuisine. I've been a regular for the last 5+ years! I Love the place! read more

I visited Royal Thai Restaurant for the first time today and walked out very impressed! I ordered my favorite Thai dish, "Panang curry". It was made medium spicy per request and tasted great! My girlfriend ordered the "Pad Thai", which was also very tasty. The staff was very courteous and very attentive during our entire meal. I would recommend anyone who enjoys Thai food or just food in general to make a visit to Thai Restaurant, you will not be disappointed. I will definitely be making another visit in the near future! read more

I want to like this place but I'm not a fan. It's too expensive and I've never liked anything I've gotten there. I had the yellow curry once and it was watery and so bland. Another time I got the crispy noodles and there were hardly any vegetables with it to make the dish interesting. The pad thai is a little greasy and also lacks vegetables. read more

Best Thai food I've found in Baltimore. It's an unassuming spot from the street, but has a beautiful, old-fashioned charm on the inside. The service is excellent. I guarantee you'll be charmed by the servers. Their descriptions of the day's specials border on performance art. But the food is the real star here. Excellent quality, flavorful and authentic. The dishes veer towards the spicy end of the spectrum but the customer is given a lot of control. The server will ask you how spicy you want it on a scale of 1 to 5. If it's your first time, or if you're sensitive to heat, err on the side of caution. As everyone says, the drunken noodles are excellent, as are their curries. I prefer their pad thai over anywhere else I've had in the city, but that's a matter of taste. I've never had anything I didn't love here. Highly recommended. read more

I grew up right around the corner and have been coming here for years! This place is delicious. My favorites are: the pad Thai w tofu, deep fried spring roll, the whole fresh fish w sweet and sour sauce, drunken noddles, and Thai iced tea! Billy and Fred are incredible (owner and head server), so nice and beyond hospitable. I really can't say enough great things about this place! read more

I have been to this restaurant twice in the last month and each experience was great. My guest were pleased with their Pad Thai and Tom Yung soup. I was pleased with the Pad See Ew and the Curry with potatoes. The owner is so nice, the service is great, and the food is delicious!!!! If you like Thai, you have to visit. read more

I have been eating Thai from here since I lived in Charles Village. I always have an enjoyable experience whether it is eating in or taking out. The owner, Billy, is awesome! He will suggest new dishes and never forgets you as a customer. The Pad Thai, Larb, soups and curry dishes are the best in my opinion. There are a lot of stir fry options on the menu as well. Don't forget to get the Tom Yum Gai soup! It is incredible and is just as good an elixir as Matzo ball soup when you have a head cold. read more

Very rude! The owner is not very nice and lets you know that he doesn't care. The food is actually good, but the portions are small and overpriced. It's a shame that the service is so bad! There are a couple other good Thai restaurants in Baltimore so I guess they will have to do. We won't be dining at this establishment anymore after our last couple of experiences. read more

I took two friends here and the waiter is extremely rude. This is my friend's first visit here and they had a very unpleasant night here.

Was close by and walked over for a weekday lunch. I had the place to myself. Nice decor, owner (I assume) was very attentive and friendly. I had summer rolls, Pad Thai, and coconut and mango ice cream for dessert. Everything was great. Portion size was excellent. 3 courses for $25 and I'll be able to have just a light dinner tonight. Highly recommend. read more

Really?! was my first thought as we were driving through the neighborhood. It is a hole in the wall. Had drunken noodles with scallops and mango sticky rice... read more

I have been looking for a new thai place since My Thai was closed because of the fire on charles street and I must say it was pretty good. I'm a sucker for pad thai and I really liked their version. I like it crazy hot and they accomodated my need for fire. Most places say they will make it very hot but are too scared to actually do it. The service was good. The thai iced tea and thai iced coffee were a little sweet for my liking but still good. A little pricey when all was said and done but I was happy. Definitely worth a shot if you are in the mood for a new thai place. read more

The environment was beautiful. The food and drinks were delicious. My only complaint would be that it is understaffed. If you're not in a rush, this isn't a problem. It's remote, quiet, and a low key place to eat. read more

Stopped here on a Saturday for lunch. The place was totally empty. Very interesting decor; traditional I guess. I placed my order of pad thai with vegetables to go. My food was ready in 10 minutes. Well, it was ok but nothing special. I wanted my pad thai from Thai Restaurant to be special but it wasn't. I miss the DC area, much better selection of Thai option. Le sigh. read more

Decent thai food, amazingly located between a number of fried chicken and fried lake trout carry-out restaurants. Free parking in the rear, but you will probably have to eat the restaurant once before you figure out where the parking is. read more

After hearing so many good things about Thai Restaurant, my first visit failed to impress. Prices seemed high for the amount of food served, and my entree arrived somewhat lukewarm. The wonton appetizer tasted a little funny, at least to my Asian palate. Overall I was not extremely pleased with Thai Restaurant, and I think there are places in the area where a better meal can be had for less. read more

Expensive for thai food! it was ok, not great. best thing was the green mango salad, tangy and not spicy, but it is a small salad and for $15 it should have been twice the size. two entrees, two apps, one tea, and one dessert was $80 read more

Best authentic Thai food in Baltimore MD I found so far. I mean they are supposedly the original around here. Had shrimp pad thai and the spring rolls with chicken in it, both were excellent and very large portions. I ordered the food to go so i can't say much for the service but everyone seemed overly friendly. read more

Solid, tasty food with friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. Could eat here every day.

Great food, bad neighborhood. Best Thai in Baltimore, for sure.

I can't understand why this place had good reviews. Few months ago, stopped by at lunch time to ask about vegetarian dishes and the owner was snooty to me, so i left. This month(Jan 2011), took a friend there for his birthday dinner since it was cold and we did not want to walk far. The service was quick but really a chinese/thai mobile food van has equivalent quality food. We ordered Tom Gai(?), drunken noodles and a chicken curry. Not recommended. read more

Was recommended from the door man at the hotel to go here for great Thai food....and while not the best I have had, was still very pleased with the food here. Great service, decent size meals, lots of options for meals...and not to $$$. If you are in Baltimore, stop by...just park in front of the restaurant :) read more

Always great food. The owner is really nice, and the atmosphere is comfortable and perfect for a quiet meal.

Best Thai food in Baltimore! The owner is super sweet and really cares about his customers. Not greasy, very authentic

this place should be on kitchen nightmares. run.... yelp you really let me down on this one....this place had bad service and bad food. I freakin love thai food so I was expecting to have a nice time. I had high hopes when we walked in and were initially waited on. I can't believe how this place could ever be "the best thai food in the city". All their awards are at least 10 years old. I recommend Tie one on in towson or thai landing in mount vernon over this place. the realistic reviews are buried underneath 5 star ones. the owner was fake nice but was deceptive about his dishes and recommendations being "fresh" and his son...woah...clearly he should not be serving/interacting people. he is a bitter bitter man. he dropped stuff on the floor while serving us and clearly didn't care. he basically dropped the food in front of us with little regard. Later, we found an error in the bill and asked the owner who asked his son who said very loudly "well obviously I made a mistake, Jesus!" in front of everyone. someone wrote a review about his bad attitude and that was 2015! Please, if you are not happy with your life, get out and do something else. I've been there. the appetizers we got were pretty good...but the meat from the entrees was old and clearly masked with being fried and with spices. I ordered duck with green curry and let the old man owner talk me into getting the duck special with green curry on the side which was a big mistake..it was basically some old duck fried up with some sad little green curry veggies. We had 2 appetizers and 2 entries, 1 soda and 2 beers that came to $82 before tip. I couldn't believe it when I saw the check. I would be glad to pay these prices if the food and experience were actually good but this is truly the worst thai place I've ever been to ever. read more

Thai Restaurant is a warm and friendly place to find yourself any day of the year. The waitstaff is quickly and friendly without being over assertive and the food is rich and tasty. My favorite part of Thai food is crispy noodles, but the honey duck that's often found on special frequently tempts me. The curry always gets rave reviews, no matter what kind. This is more of a four-and-a-half star review. The only weaknesses are the location and last time my dinner wasn't quite as warm as I would have liked. That's just one minor offense in multiple visits. read more

Ok, I have to admit, their curry dishes are super tasty, especially their green curry with shrimps. However, when it comes to whether to go back to this restaurant and how often, there are many other factors to consider. First, this place is way overpriced. A tiny little bowl of curry costs $17. Second, the neighborhood is really sketchy. Just give you an idea of the location, this restaurant is located in one of the worst areas in Baltimore - Greenmount ave. Many gun shots going on during the night, and bums hanging out during the day. Therefore, despite that the food is really tasty, I rarely go there these days based on the above reasons. read more

Best Thai food in Baltimore! Service is great. Food is as spicy as you can handle.

The best Asian food nearby. The best Thai food in Baltimore. We went here tonight for the 1st time and all of us totally fell in love with this place. The waiters are nice and the environment is cozy and a little bit mystic. The Tom Yam Gong has the classic Thai taste. The drunken noodle is also very tasty. It definitely worth going there twice. read more

This place is wonderful. The service was perfect and the food is so so good. Also, actually spicy!

Like a few others here, I had high hopes for this restaurant. It's the nearest Thai restaurant to my residence, and for that reason I really wanted to like it. But I couldn't. For starters, the appetizer and main course put me at around $22. Ouch. It might have been worth it if it was outstanding. But the tofu curry dish I had seemed as though the tofu was thrown in at the last second - the tofu had no flavor at all. As to the rest of the dish, while there was spice, there was no flavor. My appetizer, veggie dumplings, were drowning in a sweet sauce, wilting from the sadness of it all. I may give it one more try, but my suspicion is that this restaurant just doesn't do vegetarian. So, if you're on omnivore, it may turn out well for you. If not, save yourself some money and disappointment and try another place. read more

Pretty great Thai in a very understated place. Had a great time with superb service

Why does this place get good reviews over and over again? The first time I ate here was over 6 or 7 years ago, having been taken here by friends who raved about how good it was...and, I am pretty sure, even back then, I was not impressed. I moved away, and upon finding myself back in Baltimore, looking for good Thai food, I gave this place another try, since Yelp reviews have helped me find some good eats in most cities. Well, I went for lunch on a Sunday, and have to say...it sucked! Their duck special for a little over $22, during lunch, mind you, was dry...how does one cook duck so that all the fat has dried out?...and, how can duck taste dry when it was bathed in a bland, out-of-the-can red curry. I hate to send food back, so we tried to ask for the "honey sauce" that was also an option...the waiter came back with a little bowl of honey, right out of the jar. The other dish we got, I cannot even remember, because that's how unmemorable it was. Worst of all, we ended up paying a little over $80, for a sub par lunch for two. Go to Thai Yum for lunch, where you get an appetizer free with your entree that averages about $10...though, it's not the best Thai food I've had, you can eat there three times over and be 100% more satisfied then having spent time and money at Thai Restaurant. read more

Went here for first time last night with a large group, and it lived up to the hype. Favorites were drunken noodles, rice pudding and homemade ice creams (pumpkin, coconut). Tom yum koong didn't have the nip I was expecting. Proprietors were awesome and promised to make some gai tod if I call ahead. All in all, very pleased. read more

Very good Thai and great service. The Tom yum had layers of flavor. A bit expensive for lunch. Most entrees are $10 plus for lunch. This was my first visit but I'll be back. read more

Pad Thai was ok, but not the best we've had. Pass on the Tofu soup though. We did pick up, so I can't comment on the service other than to say the order was complete, double checked and ready on time. Mango sticky rice was good to finish off the meal for sure though! read more

Love this place :) So happy it's in my neighborhood. Such a treat and the staff is super sweet! Very delicious. My favorite is Massaman curry w/ tofu and a thai iced tea. Yum! read more

Went there for the first time last Saturday night. Great food and service, old school decor, reasonable prices and quiet enough you can have a conversation with your stablemates. Liked it a lot and will return! read more
