This place is so good. We order from here all the time and especially after having a baby, we get takeout from here. If you order on Uber Eats, there's usually a deal. Highly recommend the green or red curry. The mango sticky rice is great too. We also really like the milk teas read more

I got this after a long week at work (as a crane operator) as a reward; It was more of a punishment. I was sharing this with a friend and neither of us could continue eating. I've never not been able to eat pad Thai before. There was a strong chemical taste that would stay in your mouth for ages. Actually, my throat is tingling as I write this. Maybe it's a bad batch? We didn't like the Pad Se Eew, but you could like It if you aren't weird about food textures. The noodles were a little too squishy, perhaps overcooked. This was my first time trying pad se eew so that could be normal. I feel badly writing this. Maybe It was just a bad day. read more

I was really looking forward to the mango sticky rice from Thai Select, but it was a letdown. The portion size is comical. For a $10 dessert, what arrived looked more like a sample than a proper serving. The photo is exactly what you get, a small puck of rice and a few slices of mango. The mango and rice was tasty, but the portion size doesn't match the price. I didn't try any other food. It might be a decent restaurant. read more

This place is very solid. They have a really good lunch deal for $13.99 which includes a main entree, soup, and veggie/meat spring roll. The calamari app was delicious. I got my pad thai the spiciest it could be and it was very good. My only complaint is the type of noodle used, I like a thicker pad Thai noodle rather than the skinny ones because it absorbs more of the sauce. We also got a spicy tuna roll which was very good as well read more

Intrigued by Thai Select and decided to give them a try. Upon entering, greeted by a clean and welcoming environment, approached the Kiosk and explored a wide variety of options. Lunch Box #7 - Drunken Noodles ($13.99) Eager to taste my selections: Two bites into each of the warm crispy mini veggie dumplings, wasn't a big fan of the daily soup, and although a rice lover, I throughly enjoyed the Drunken Noodles (wide rice noodles, rice, bell peppers, tomatoes, garlic, Thai basil, fresh chili) with chicken. It was the perfect blend and mixture of everything. Me being my courageous self, turned it up a notch and increased my spice level from mild to medium. Requested water, and turned up several times. #YouCanHandleIt read more

It was a quiet night.... It was.... Thanksgiving! I wasn't invited anywhere. Maybe because I am not a nice human being? Maybe because all of my friends were out of town with their partner? I will let you figure out the reason. I was hungry and I wanted soup. After looking at tons of places that were closed I ran into Thai Select. I ordered Tom Yum Soup, Glass noodles, green curry and papaya salad. The food was ready before the time that was given. The packaging of the food was 100/100. No spills! I came home and instantly unpacked the food. Everything was warm and even in the containers the presentation of the food looked amazing. Why would a restaurant make their food look pretty for takeout? No idea but definitely points to Thai Select. Tom Yum soup tasted wonderful. Glass noodles, I couldn't get enough of them. Green curry was aromatic and therapeutic. Papaya salad was my dessert but is technically not a dessert. #Health All in all this felt like someone packed food for me to go on thanksgiving. Thai Select didn't have to go this had but it did... for me. For that Thai Select has my gratitude. 4.9/5 definitely recommend! They have a cute sitting space as well jbtw in case you are in the mood to dine in. read more

I've ordered takeout from here numerous times, and the quality of the food varies a lot. Sometimes the rice is kinda stale, sometimes the sauces are watery. Just now I got two orders of a tofu dish and one of them had barely any tofu in it. Really unreliable. Also the takeout staff barely speak English, so it's hard to communicate if there are any problems with the order. read more

Coming back from being out all day, my family and I were definitely ready for something quick to eat for dinner. We found this Thai place that had a very lengthy menu for the whole family to find something they wanted. They were pretty busy with takeout and dine in that it took awhile for service, but it was worth the wait. I was able so I get a bento box for a good deal that included rolls, seaweed salad, chicken dumplings, and edamame. I shared my meal with my mom. My older brother got the same dish and loved it. My mom got the duck curry that surprised her with all the heat (which she loves)! They tried the curry puff app. They said it tasted just like a samosa. Look no further if you're craving pad thai, sushi, curry of any sort, and fried rice. The menu is extensive to meet anyone's needs! read more

Will definitely keep coming back! read more

This was not my first time at Thai select and it certainly will not be my last. Grabbing a quick takeout order today of pad Thai tofu and crab rangoons, I was very happy with the speed of preparation of the order and the overall flavor of each dish. Fresh and lovely by all counts. The staff are wonderful and helpful even if you're only coming in to pickup an order. The restaurant is comfortable and well located, I've enjoyed my meals eaten on location in the past. read more

Thai Select in Rosslyn is a hidden gem with a cozy vibe and an impressive menu. The sushi was surprisingly amazing, and I loved the papaya salad, summer rolls, and tom kha soup. Their dinner combo option is such a great deal -- I got to try both the pad Thai and drunken noodles in one meal! And don't skip dessert -- the crepes are massive and totally worth it if you're in the mood to treat yourself. The only thing I wouldn't really recommend on the menu is the crying tiger steak. read more

Fairly average Thai food. Actually, I take that back, because the menu is broader than Thai food. We had the crab rangoon, shrimp gyoza, pineapple fried rice and general tso's chicken. Those are all pretty standard items, but they definitely lean more Chinese than Thai so maybe we just ordered poorly. read more

Stopped here for their lunch special. Got the eggplant and tofu and the green chicken curry. Both were yummy. Also came with soup and veggie dumplings or a spring roll for $12.99. We will be back to try more. read more

This is my first time leaving a bad review on Yelp. I ordered takeout, and the service was extremely rude--I was ignored and even dismissed with a hand gesture when I pointed out my order on the table (which was correct). After giving my name, I was left waiting while other customers were helped first. When I called to address the issue, the line suddenly went silent, and I was put on hold and then hung up on--I have a recording of it. The food was overly sweet and stingy with vegetables and protein. read more

The service food and ambiance is pretty good. Only flaw is how small the portions are. Especially if you're doing take out. A $10 mango sticky rice would feel worth It if you got more than a 1/4 bit of rice and half a mango read more

I ordered take-out and my order was done fast. I got the lunch pad thai, panang curry and thai select wing. Lunch pad thai portion size was decent but the panang curry was small. Flavorwise, both dishes were pretty good. I got thai hot for both and my idea of "thai hot" is much hotter, maybe I'll try the super hot next time. My only complaint were the thai select wings. Wings were a bit dry and I wish there were more flavor. Some of the wings were TINY, not worth the price. Small parking lot. I would rate it a 3.75/4, rounding up to 4/5. read more

Absolutely the best Thai we have ever had. The flavor plus heat is bar none. You will not be disappointed.

horrible service, we sat down and other tables were sat after us but the other tables got their food before our waiter even came to get our drinks order. we ordered cocktails and the waiter came back saying they ran out of the ingredients so we ordered a different drink and he came back saying he couldn't make that either, so I order Soju and on their menu it stated they had flavored Sojui so I asked for flavor and the waiter just brought unflavored original. our waiter never checked on us or even looked out way when we tried to get his attention. our waiter brought over food to us that we didn't even order, it was the order of the table next to us. our waiter took the order off our table after we picked at it trying to figure what it was and delivered it to the correct table, he didn't even remake their order after we touched it. I even asked our waiter if that was the correct order. we also ordered cheesecake and it was frozen read more

I've eaten here a few times and never had any problems. I got take out last night and got food poisoning within an hour of eating . Very unpleasant experience of chills, sweating, diarrhea and throwing up read more

Fast service (for self pick up / take out), smooth operation on DoorDash, good food. I wish the packaging is better. Use better boxes and not these flimsy leaky one time use containers. There are sturdier plastic boxes. The upside: they did add a piece of cardboard between layers of boxes in the take out bag to ensure stability and to make sure that every box stays horizontal. Nice touch. Restaurant itself is nicely decorated. Inviting. read more

Always tea time at Thai Select! This time I grabbed some food for my aunt and I on 10/14. I always stop in here for a Thai iced tea and no matter the time of day, it's ALWAYS poppin so naturally, I was gonna try it out. Appetizer wise, I grabbed the Kanom Jeeb (steamed for my preference) and my aunt had the Shrimp Shumai and Curry Puff. She said both of hers were really good. I'm a glutton for flavor so of course my dumpling had to be filled with everything (shrimp, pork & chicken). And I'm a sucker for sauce so it was everything I hoped it would be :) My entree was the Drunken Noodles with shrimp because well, spice is life. And my aunt had the Pad Woon Sen with chicken and shrimp. Both were great! With the drunken noodles, I could've done without the huge slices of tomato (took them out before my picture). All in all, I think this place will remain my go to for anything Thai related! And as busy as they are, my order was still ready within 15 minutes from me ordering in store. Will definitely be back. read more

I've been to Thai Select a few times and it's a solid Thai option if you live in the neighborhood. Portions are a decent size, and there's always very quick service and plenty of seating. There's two different menus so there's lots of options including good happy hour deals. We always split a pad Thai and poke bowl, and it's one of the only Arlington restaurants that has both items on the menu. Giving it four stars because, although the food is good, it's not the best Thai food I've had in the DMV. Still would recommend if you're in the area and craving Thai noodles or ramen, though! read more

I ordered lunch from here because I saw an amazing BOGO deal! However, I was pretty disappointed when my food was delivered. I ordered shrimp drunk noodles dinner entree and the shrimp was small, noodles were thick and round, and it was sitting in a lot of sauce with chunks of tomatoes. Definitely not what I was expecting! I also ordered the fried Thai dimplings which were ok, just wish they were crispier. In terms of portion size, I'd said it's smaller than other places. With the BOGO deal, it makes the 2 portion closer to what you'd expect for 1 dinner entree. Would probably not order from here again since what I got wasn't what I wanted in terms of drunken noodles. read more

Good place to get Thai in Arlington. It has a simple menu. Lunch deals are money savers. Healthy but tasty food. There's lots of vegan choices too. Came for lunch. It has some lunch specials. These are good ways to get lots of good food and save money too. My boo wanted to split a meal. We got some of the vegan lunch options. A Lunch Box special includes choices of several items. It's about $10 for dumplings, soup, and the entree with a protein. The Tom Yum Soup was spicy but not overwhelmingly so. It came with some vegetable dumplings. These were simple and were an appetizer that didn't spoil our appetites for the entree. Cashew Nut was a good choice. We got it with tofu. It comes with bell peppers and onions. This was somewhat lightly spicy. It makes a very good lunch and they're pretty fast. Prices aren't bad for how much you get. The many vegan choices will get us coming back to try more stuff. read more

Come for their lunch specials (any day of the week)! My husband and I will come here at least 2-3 a month just to grab lunch here. We've never had any problems with seating, but I've heard of delivery/takeout mishaps in the past. I was a little confused why a Thai place was selling sushi, but the sushi is so good...I'm not complaining! SERVICE: 5/5 - Servers were super attentive to seated customers while they were managing a bunch of takeout orders! We were able to order fairly quickly and got our food within ten minutes. FOOD: - Hawaiian Poke Bowl: 5/5 - This comes with so much fish!! And it's super fresh. I usually get a lot of poke bowl, but I always have a hard time finishing the hawaiian bowl. - Salmon Avocado Handroll: 5/5 - Huge handroll for $6 with FRESH salmon. We were surprised with this one! - Pad See Ew: 5/5 - We got the lunch special that came with a spring roll and soup! So worth it for $11.99. read more

The food is okay -- not horrible, but certainly not delicious either. It just hits the spot when you're hungry and since options are limited in the area, this is a decent spot to add to your rotation. But my disappointment comes not from the food per se. It's from the service. I walked in for a late lunch around 2:30p, ordering take out. I saw they had a lunch combination of half chicken pad thai and half chicken panang curry. Substitutions (meat upgrades) were not allowed, which seemed weird to me. You can't even pay extra to get beef or shrimp? The combo seems like a way to get rid of their chicken as most will probably order beef or shrimp in their dishes anyway. The food came out promptly, already wrapped in a plastic bag for me. I walked the half mile back to where I was going. When I opened my food, it looked like they forgot to give me my pad thai and only gave me my curry. I was so annoyed. But then upon closer inspection, I realized they did give me both... but for some reason they packed it in a plastic container with two compartments, one with pad thai and the other with curry... on my walk, much of the curry had spilled over into my pad thai, essentially mixing the two dishes and turning my noodles into a noodle curry soup. I paid extra for the combo so I could have two different things and save some for later, but this pretty much ruined that hope. I understand that a combo plate comes with everything together but it is devoid of common sense to pack a curry and another item in the same container. Or at the very least, if you do it, let the customer know... they wrapped everything for me and just handed it to me. How was I supposed to know I needed to take extra care to not tilt the container?!? When I did eat the food, the curry was everywhere. The flavor was fine. The chicken was meh. The side of rice that came with the curry was not even warm and I think they pre-scoop rice into little containers for take-out orders. I can't really comment on the pad thai because it tasted like curry. I am pretty annoyed. read more

[Coronavirus review] Still running during the lockdown, with the option to order from various apps or their own website. It's also notable that this location is just across the river from DC in Arlington; it's a trip that I would hesitate to make in traffic, but currently there isn't much traffic so I think it's wise to recalibrate one's mental maps to account for greater reachability. Thai cuisine creates a fairly stark issue for us vegetarians (and vegans, and people with seafood allergies) because the authentic cuisine has fish and shrimp in basically everything. This place has notably decided to offer most of its menu available vegan, though I was dismayed to learn that their tofu and vegetable option includes broccoli, while the amount of actual tofu was not huge. The drunken noodles and pad prik khing I ordered had other flavors, to be sure, with Thai basil and a reasonable dose of chili coming through. The nuance of flavors I get at-say-Beau Thai was not evident, but for quick takeout it was good enough as a sort of 3.5-star place that vegetarians of all stripes can depend on. read more

I had the combo dish of pad Thai and Panang curry. I like them both, but the curry was better than the pad Thai. The service and atmosphere both take a little of a hit because of the robust takeout curriers that were almost constantly walking in and out.
