Authentic and flavorful Thai dishes. Small cozy atmosphere with friendly service. We always go with the Sauteed Mussels to start which always has just right amount of spice and the Ped Kratiem Sliced boneless crispy duck topped with garlic sauce, scallions & cilantros served with jasmine rice and the Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) Stir fried flat noodles with mixed vegetables, mushroom, thai basil and chili sauce. This place is BYOB as well. read more

Really, REALLY good Thai food, BUTTTTTTT they've got some work to do on their service. We made a 6pm reservation over the phone for our family of 4 for a relatively low-key winter Friday evening. When we arrived, the restaurant was decently busy, but not at capacity. However, they did turn away some folks because all of the tables were apparently reserved, so, the advice of the day is to MAKE A RESERVATION on weekend evenings. They had our table ready for us, including the high chair we requested for our daughter, so that was a plus. UNFORTUNATELY, that was the pinnacle of the service for the evening. The menu was pretty much made up of your typical Thai faves, comprising of Thai-inspired noodles, rice entrees, curries, stir-fried entrees, fish dishes, soups and various meat specials. Nothing will surprise the savvy Thai food aficionado, but there is plenty to satisfy your heart and stomach. Since it was our 1st time dining here, we ordered a little bit of everything, except a rice dish. We got the Thai Iced Tea, Tom Yum Koong Soup, Thai Spring Rolls, Duck Salad, Shrimp Pad Thai and Chicken Pad See Ew. First, the good ol' Thai Iced Tea. A rare loser for the night. It needed to be a lot colder and tasted a bit watered down. Far from the best Thai Iced Tea I ever had. Second, the soup - FANTASTIC. Simple, yet so flavorful. There were 3 pieces of shrimp in the soup and a bunch of sliced mushrooms, but the flavors really hit you when you drank it. There was a bit of sourness, but not overwhelming. I wasn't too fond of us ordering this at first, but after trying it, I'd say it's almost a must get! As for the Thai Spring Rolls, they came out hot and crispy. It didn't blow me away, but it was solid. Next, the Duck Salad. ANOTHER major winner here. The boneless strips of duck were scattered throughout this delicious salad, which included cashews, tomatoes, scallions, pineapple chunks, onions, cilantro, apple and lettuce tossed together in lime juice. All of the juice pretty much sat at the bottom of the salad, so a good mixing needed to be done once it arrived at the table, but it was another great dish. Finally, our Shrimp Pad Thai and Chicken Pad See Ew arrived. And, yes, I said FINALLY, because it took approximately 40 minutes! YES, 40 MINUTES for the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew to hit our tables after we had ordered. I understand that they were relatively busy, with diners inside and takeout orders, but the restaurant wasn't at full capacity, so the wait for these 2 entrees was excessive. The soup and Duck Salad came out pretty quickly, but the noodles took another 25 minutes. I get 10-15, but 25 minutes passing was way too long between dishes. Anyhow, the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew were EXCELLLLENT though. They were piping hot and super fresh and I absolutely loved them both. They both had the perfect amount of moisture where it wasn't too slimy (you know what I mean), yet wasn't too dry either. I thoroughly enjoyed them. Unfortunately, as great as the food was, we felt the service was subpar throughout the evening. Besides the fact that we had to wait for what felt like an eternity for our food, the waiter/waitresses didn't pay much attention to us and we couldn't help but feel like we were ignored all evening. Not sure why, but internally, I felt something was definitely off, like we were getting the cold shoulder. When our order was taken, there wasn't much enthusiasm. Not one time were we visited to see how things were and we were not offered refills on water or extra napkins or anything for that matter. When the bill was dropped off at our table, the waitress thanked us, but, her head was turned the other way??? I get it was busy, but a thank you with some eye contact would have been nice??? And then, when we left, the waitresses didn't say goodbye or thank you after they had JUST enthusiatically done that to a table of four 2 minutes prior. Call me crazy, but I took receipts for those no-nos. How can you scream "goodbye" and "thank you" to patrons that just left, but yet go silent when we leave? We really wanted to love every aspect of this little restaurant, but one thing I've always preached when patronizing a restaurant is that I don't care how good the food is, if the service is not up to snuff or passable, then nothing else matters. YES, the food was very good here. I won't knock that at all. BUT, personally, we think the service needs an upgrade. And, if the waiter/waitresses didn't realize they were ignoring us throughout the evening, that's another problem as well then. Either way, THERE IS room for improvement IMO. read more

Thai restaurants are one of the fastest-growing dining segments in northern New Jersey. And with more places specializing in regional cuisines, the Thai scene has never been more exciting. Located in Hasbrouck Heights, I've eaten several times at Tom Yum Koong off of Boulevard. The reservation was easily made by calling the restaurant for 5 persons at 6:30 pm this Saturday. Upon arrival, my partner, our friends and I were greeted by the staff and were seated promptly after 6 years as a group. The menu offers an exotic array of dishes, from soups to salads to fish to curries, with familiar Thai cuisine known for its balance of five flavor profiles--hot, sour, sweet, salty, and bitter (sometimes). As a starter, we decided on the Beef Satay and Poa Pia (Thai spring rolls). As the main entrée, we opted for Ped Makham (sliced, boneless, crispy duck topped with tamarind sauce, scallions, and cilantro), Grilled Chicken Breast marinated in Thai spices, Pad Mix Vegetable in garlic soy sauce, and Red Curry with coconut milk, bell peppers, green chili, and eggplants. All served with white rice. We even saved room for some desserts and got Fried Vanilla Ice Cream and Fried Green Tea Ice Cream. The food arrived at our table hot, consistently fresh, perfect, nicely presented, delicious, and authentic. Service is always wonderful, and we liked how fast the food was served. We never felt rushed, and I got a chance to exchange words with the owner, Ann. This is a perfect place to get your Thai food fix, and it's BYOB, which we can recommend. read more

not one it is the best I have tasted.And the delivery is all on time and never a problem Anna run a good business.

My boyfriend and I stopped here after another place was closed that we've been trying to go to. I'm so glad the other restaurant was closed or I'd probably never have this Thai restaurant on my radar. We were seated right away - this place fills up quick. Service was excellent and the interior is beautifully decorated. We started with the papaya salad and some sort of coconut broth, chicken soup. Both were absolutely delicious, the papaya salad was super flavorful, and the soup was unlike anything I've tasted before. I've been trying to give new Thai soups a chance and this is a winner. My boyfriend got a beef ginger stirfry and I got their pad Thai to try. Both were really great. My pad Thai came with huge chunks of delicious tofu. The flavors were on point all around. Will definitely be back here to try more things. read more

Wonderful Thai food in the area. Great flavor. A tap too sweet for my taste. Duck has crispy skin and tender inside (highly recommend). My parents love the pineapple fried rice. Service is great. Not sure if she is the owner. Very friendly and attentive. Dinner time you will prob need reservations due to limited tables. Street parking. read more

Went for a Saturday lunch, right when they opened at noon. Lovely restaurant, with tables to hold about 20-30 guests, lots of nice Thai arts and crafts. The menu has a good variety of Thai dishes and drinks. We started with some amazing appetizers, mussels and chicken satay were good, Tom yum Koong soup was incredible. Probably the best tom yum soup I had in the longest time. Such good mixture of the spice and citrus, with perfectly cooked shrimp. For entree we got the panang curry, duck curry and pineapple fried rice with squid. All were beautiful dishes. All tasted so good with the Thai curry, spice and vegetables. Duck curry is really recommended, for the tenderness of the meat mixed with the sauce. Not to mention all these items came out of kitchen in lightning speed. Our server was really nice. She said to reserve on weekends if you plan to come for dinner, since it gets super busy. read more

My go to when traveling in this area. Great mom and pop place with everything being very fresh and delicious. Extremely flavorful and feels like each dish is custom and not cookie cutter Thai, if that makes sense. The Curry's are delicious and the pad basil is a winner also. Do yourself a favor and try this place. read more

I can't believe I waited this long to try this place! First, this a BYOB, which I love when I want to enjoy a bottle of wine I know I like. It's very small inside, but has dim lighting and decorated nicely. Def call ahead to make a reservation or ask if there is a wait time. It's family run and the staff is very attentive. The menu has variety so I'm sure anyone can find something they would like even if they are trying Thai food for the first time. they are able to adjust the heat in the curry dishes, which was nice, It was still quite spicy, but absolutely delicious. I had the chef special grilled chicken with Thai rice and peanut sauce on the side, it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was tender, The sauces were perfect. For an appetizer, We shared the chicken dumplings, which were also very good. We took dessert to go, the mango sticky rice, which we really enjoyed later on in the evening, we will definitely go back again. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

12/13/23 We've been here many many times, but this is my 1st time reviewing. Everything we've ever order is delicious! Service is always wonderful! Cute little corner restaurant. Steamed Dumplings - this is so flavorful. Looks like a mess though, it looks like the dumpling fell apart when plating. lol But who cares with the flavor! YUM! Kang Ped Ped Yang (Curry Duck) - this was delicious! I was weary about the pineapple because I'm not a fan of fruits in my entrees, but this worked and it enhanced the duck. YUM! Grilled Pork Chop - The flavor was amazing! I actually wished there was more of the sauce. Mango Iced Tea - needs more mango flavor Pineapple soda - was too sweet read more

Fantastic Thai food. Ordered takeout but ambiance looked very nice. Will definitely come back to eat in.

My son, girlfriend and I decided to go there last minute, without a reservation, it was on a Saturday night, the restaurant was full and the waitress told us that it would take 45 minutes for a table and took my cell number, we were waiting in the car because the place is very small, 50 minutes later and still waiting for her to call us... I decided to call her to find out what was going on, she told me that it would be 15 to 35 extra minutes but at the same time she said that she made a mistake and they wouldn't have a table for 3 at all. We were very upset that she made us wait all that time just to turn around and tell us that they wouldn't have a table for the 3 people. This is unacceptable, I'll never go back there again. read more

Not bad if you're in a pinch and craving Thai food. We ordered two lunch specials for a pick up on a Tuesday at around 12ish. We had the chicken pad Thai and chicken fried rice. They were bad but just nothing amazing. The lunch special comes with a soup and a salad. Another time, we ordered for pick up for dinner on a Sunday night. I had the pad see euw (again not bad), and hubby had some curry, which was kind of watery. We also did the beef skewers and it was a bit chewy. It seems that they're noodle dishes are the safest bets. I would probably order again just out of convenience but this will likely not be my go-to Thai place. read more

This small eatery is always awesome. Friendly service, and food comes out hot, fresh and fast. BYOB. They're happy to adjust a dish if possible- I had their tofu soup veganized and it was amazing. I highly recommend it (the base is normally chicken broth). One of my favorite restaurants, and it's consistently great every single time. Highly recommend if you're in the area and want some top-notch Thai food!! read more

The sauce in the Pad Kraprow Basil stir fried entree is so good that you get more jasmine rice to soak up every last drop. The Grilled Jumbo Shrimps Chef Special is too beautiful in presentation to touch; but when you take that first bite of the red curry sauce and the sautéed vegetables and that huge shrimp, it's Euphoria, it's Magic! The Thai Iced Coffee is FRESH. It is not too sweet. Just right. The Spring Rolls are gorgeous and you taste the goodness, the cabbage, the vermicelli and the heat( temperature) to the very core. The accompanying sweet sauce lighter and tastier than any duck sauce. The Jasmine rice is stupendous. The Tom Yum Soup is just perfect. The Mango Mousse cake with fresh mangoes makes you tear. The inside of the restaurant is warm and cozy. Theo the incredible server is simply the best. The party next to you is served the fried banana dessert with ice cream and a candle and you join in the singing and birthday celebration. The lunch specials look amazing.( menu photo).Closed Mondays. Just a 5 minute drive from Teterboro airport and 10 minutes from the GWB. read more

Tom Yum Koong Thai Kitchen - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey

There have been many Asian restaurants who have come and gone in the Hasbrouck Heights area in recent years, and (more specifically) those offering Thai cuisine. Some of them were (or still are, after changing hands) "Thai-focused", and others are Asian restaurants who specialize in other aspects but also offer the more popular Thai dishes as an aside. Trust me when I tell you that you don't want to judge whether or not you like Pad Thai (perhaps the most popular Thai dish) if, for example, you've only ordered it from a Chinese restaurant... (No matter HOW well that establishment prepares the other food you normally enjoy from it.) Let's not forget who was the first to do it and be a consistent success at it, and it's that gratitude for Tom Yum Koong bringing properly prepared Thai cuisine to the neighborhood that makes THIS restaurant the "OG" here. The dining area is small, but does a great job of maximizing space and has an understated elegance about it that is warm and inviting. Everything from the tables to the dinnerware to the decorations on the wall (and the music) enhances the experience of dining here. The service is prompt, friendly and attentive. The general vibe here is one of happiness; as looking around at smiling faces and listening to laughter bellow above conversations while dining is the norm. BUT THE FOOD! -- Let's not kid ourselves from knowing that food can save a restaurant from going under if the space and service are sub-par... Or (less likely, but also true) if it's the opposite. Above all else good about TYK, the food is the shining star! We've had the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew (among other things) from here from time to time over the years, and it's always top-notch. On this last visit, one of those two staples was ordered... And it was up to the previous high standards this restaurant has set for itself. Also ordered were the Chicken Potstickers and Fried Dumplings appetizers. Both were outstanding in their amazingly crisp texture, delicious fillings, and presentation. A different main course was the Pineapple Fried Rice with squid. The salty/sweet combination of that (along with the perfectly cooked squid) knocked my socks off! That dish, like many others, is offered with other protein choices like beef, chicken and shrimp; as I point that out knowing not everyone cares for squid. Pair all of this with whatever bottle you choose to bring on your own (they also offer non-alcoholic beverages), and you have the makings of an epically satisfying meal. Cheers (and thanks) to Tom Yum Koong for being the "OG" of Thai cuisine in the Hasbrouck Heights/Wood-Ridge area for all these years!... MANY MORE!!! read more

Generally, the food was pretty middle of the road. It didn't wow me. Ambiance: (4/5) The restaurant was small but they had a nice table layout. I took my food to go but I would have been comfortable eating in the restaurant. Price: (3/5) The lunch prices are decent, but the portions were small so the prices seemed a bit high. Food: (3/5) I love Thai food so I have a lot to compare to. This was nothing special. The spices were mild even when I asked for spicy. The panaag curry was a little too sweet and had too many vegetables and not enough curry. The pineapple fried rice were a bit dry but had some spice to them. They tasted better with the panaag curry. The white rice provide was a better consistency that the fried rice. Lastly, the noodles were good but weee missing the spices I usually get. Service: (3/5) My food was ready when I got there but they didn't provide any utensils and hardly said hi when I walked in. I did not sit down and eat, so it may have been different if I did. In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend this place to everyone, but if you are craving Thai and you are already in the area, the food is not bad, it's just average. read more
