    Pad See Ew Lunch Special
    Ye Z.

    Came here on a Thursday afternoon for a little lunch date with the husband! The restaurant is so cute and nicely designed. Food was pretty darn good and the waiter was nice! We started off with some shrimp rolls; 10/10 I got the Pad See Ew lunch special that came with two sides and I opted for the spring roll and soup; delicious 9/10 My husband got the Nuer Yang (steak) with jasmine rice; cooked perfectly 10/10 Ended the meal with some mango sticker rice; 8/10

    I am a very picky Thai food eater. Coming from the NW we were spoiled rotten. It has taken me many tries in NY to find my spots. And a couple years ago my boyfriend and I tried this place on a whim and it was amazing. We just really can't get enough. We are also lucky because there's two of us. So we get to try two entrees but get half of both. The perfect masterplan. This place is never busy for dine in. I see a lot of food delivery pick ups while we sit and enjoy our meal. The feel at the restaurant is calm, clean and attentive. The staff is always on point. We scan the QR code, but always know we will be ordering the Rose Rangoons, the pineapple fried rice with shrimp and the Massaman Curry with tofu. Every bite is always as delicious as one can remember it. My boyfriend can literally drink that curry sauce. I love the little peanuts in the curry. A little surprise. I took my sister here with her daughter on Sunday and they were blown away. My niece was headed back to college on Monday so I am so happy they had a great time. My niece loved the veggie curry puffs so much that we had to do another order. It made me so happy that they were happy and that we have this beautiful memory here. And now that the weather has gotten slightly chillier, we look forward to more meals soon.

    Pad See Ew with shrimp

    This is the second time I ordered takeout food from this place. It is delivered very quickly. I got the chive pancakes and the shrimp Tom Yum soup again. That was very good before and it's still good. this time I tried the fried chicken for an entrée. it was really dry. the rice that came with it was wrapped in cellophane/plastic wrap within the container. weird. when I unwrapped it, it stayed like a brick. I find this to be very strange. I believe this costs $16 for the chicken. Totally NOT worth it.

    The food was great, but I was impressed by their presentation. The decorations of the restaurant were rustic and cute. Dish wear and glass wear were very charming. The ambiance was relaxed. It is a small restaurant, and there are not many tables, but the pieces of furniture are stylish and cute. I loved these details. We liked the food, and the service was very attentive. The restaurant seems busy with takeout and delivery, but not many eat-in customers. We initially thought about ordering for delivery, but we decided to take a visit. If we did take out, we would have missed their presentation of the food, which was charming. I am glad that we visited and had a dine-in experience. The price was very reasonable. There is no alcohol served which is a downside but not a big deal. We would love to come back and try different dishes in the future.

    This is what I love about New York. We went to a brand new Thai restaurant in Ridgewood (of all places) knowing that there are like three other Thai places close by. This place is pretty empty with just one other party. Just one waitress. Pretty small operation. Expectations were not super high or anything, but it turns out that the food here is phenomenal. I can see this place getting popular very quickly. The Pad See Ew was silky smooth.. some of the best I've had. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the Crispy Three Flavors Fish. So crispy, juicy, and oh so flavorful. If you like spicy foods, the mild will be perfect. Thai food can get overly spicy.. even the medium spicy is a lot. All in all, the food here is exceptional. Can't wait to come back.

    Curry Puffs and Thai Iced Tea
    Mari T.

    I ordered the vegetarian curry puffs, Thai ice tea and shrimp pad Thai and also tried the coconut soup which was delicious. The place was kind of cold, but they put heating lamps at each table. It was empty when I went on a Saturday at 5 PM so the service was pretty good, but there were moments where no one came out since we were the only people there.

    Chicken Pad Thai beef Pad See Ew

    Really really tasty! I came on a rainy day with my boyfriend and found the whole place empty. No one was even at the register when we walked in. The lady was in the back helping with seemingly many delivery orders. We seated ourselves and checked out their menu. We saw some unique options but stuck to the classics for our first time here. Food: We ordered chicken pad thai, beef pad see euw, and mango salad. The pad thai is very similar to how we had it in Phuket - it's more saucy, more brown than the drier red/orange colored version that some places serve. The beef pad see euw was amazing. It was certainly our favorite dish of the two. The pad see euw is very saucy, sweet and smoky flavor. I absolutely loved the juicy rice noodles which were cooked so well. The proteins were slightly dry but the noodles more than made up for it. (Order this if you like beef)! The mango salad was different and refreshing. It was pieces of mango, red onion, tomatoes, little bit o' lettuce sprinkled with pepper flakes. I think it is a great way to lighten to palette when eating the heavier/saucier noodle dishes. My boyfriend thought the dishes were well portioned and he rarely thinks that lol The restaurant is a casual/cozy local feel. Definitely will be back :)

    Lychee Ice Tea
    Erika P.

    Ordered here through Uber eats for a quick work lunch. I got the ginger sauce dish w/ fried tofu + white rice and the lychee iced tea. Honestly, I love lychee drinks but this one was not good. It didn't taste like lychee at all and left a bad aftertaste in my mouth. The ginger sauce dish came with onions, peppers, mushrooms, & corn plus my added tofu. Overall, it was a good meal with a flavorful sauce and a nice sized portion. If you are looking for a quick takeout meal this spot will do the trick, otherwise I would pass on it.

    Hat Yai Fried Chicken
    Angelique A.

    We happened to be nearby and stopped by for dinner, and it was the so good! The mango salad with mint in chefs kiss. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy but also not at all greasy, served with sticky rice. We also got Tom yum soup, and basil fried rice which was also top notch. Unlike a "just takeout" spot this place has great decor and vibe, and also a great playlist. The portions were perfect and the hostess was so on point. Food came care minutes after we ordered, great service - give this neighborhood spot a try!

The 3rd dish was unique and all the ingredients complimented each so well. All 3 dishes were made of fresh ingredients and medium spicy. Every dish was made with love and delivered with care. Saranrom Thai definitely deserves two thumbs up and my Yummylicious Stamp of Approval!

    Update (May 2026) -- 4 stars…read more I went back to Saranrom Thai today and I'm glad I did. The food was just as good as I remembered -- if anything, it tasted even better. They've also updated the ambience, making it feel cozier. I spoke with Jacob, the assistant manager, about my previous experience and the complimentary meal that was promised regarding the cockroach incident. He said he needed to verify it with the manager or business owner, and after 10-15 minutes came back to let me know the owner approved 50% off the whole meal. While I appreciated the gesture, I did feel it fell a little short of what was originally promised as a full complimentary meal. What stood out most this visit was Jacob himself. He told me he vividly remembered my party from that night because he was the one who seated us -- and he sincerely apologized for what happened. That acknowledgment genuinely meant a lot. They also gifted me a free mug, which was a sweet touch. The food and atmosphere continue to impress, and the staff clearly cares. I just hope the follow-through on promises matches the warmth of the service going forward.

The place is small with 5 tables. There were only 2 ladies working there. One is cook and the other lady handles the front of the house. Service was fast. I had the lunch special pad thai with chicken. My pad thai was sweet but I am not sure if that's normally sweet. The dish is very tasty. It had lots of peanuts and bean sprouts. My daughter had chicken cutlet fried rice. The chicken was very delicious crispy and moist in the center. The fried rice was a a normally tasting rice. She would glady get another chicken. The spring roll had a lot of finely shredded cabbage and carrots. I didn't like the dripping sauce. It was very sweet. I ate the spring rolls by itself. The roll is very crispy and freshly made. The thai ice tea is delicious and tasty. I would come back and try another dish..

I had also ordered the Thai Fried Rice because I need to try as many dishes as possible when I'm eating a restaurant for the first time - absolutely delicious and highly recommend! The service was great and I had no complaints at all. Thank you for making my experience eating here a great one :)

They definitely didn't tell me that lunch specials were available before I ordered my soup. Other than that, everyone is pleasant. Space: they have two sides, so plenty of space, but nights and weekends can get pretty packed, so keep that in mind. Food: I ordered Tom Yum soup and a lunch drunken noodle with a Thai iced tea. I only had the soup there and took the entire lunch special to go. Just based off of the soup, I will be going back. It was delicious and PACKED to the MAX! Writing this now, I can still imagine. Drunken Noodles were also really tasty. I like mine spicy and it could have been made spicier, but that's not even a real complaint.

    If you're tired of Thai spots that lean too heavily on sugar, Kam Rai Thai is a breath of fresh…read moreair. The kitchen here doesn't shy away from traditional flavors--the food is unapologetically spicy and savory, avoiding the "overly sweet" profile that many Thai spots fall into. Here's the breakdown of what we tried: Tom Yum Goong: This was the star of the show. It had a sharp, clean heat and a perfect citrus punch without that syrupy finish you often find elsewhere. Crispy Pork Belly: Exactly what you want it to be. The skin was incredibly crunchy, and the meat remained tender, seasoned perfectly to highlight the savory pork flavor. Fried Fish: Deep-fried to perfection with a light, crispy exterior. The sauce paired chili and fish sauce with fresh mango. Crab Fried Rice: Generous with the crab meat and wonderfully "wok-hei" (charred) and salty. It wasn't bogged down by sweet soy sauce, allowing the delicate crab to shine. The only real sweetness of the night came from the Mango Sticky Rice, which was the perfect, cooling end to a very spicy meal. The mango was ripe and the coconut milk was rich, providing the only sugary reprieve of the evening. Service was so nice. The hostess and sever were so nice and friendly. The severer felt like a Thai uncle, he made jokes, gave us napkins, joked with my child. It felt so familial. If you want authentic, spicy Thai food that prioritizes salt, spice, and acid over sweetness, this is your spot.

    I first went to Kam Rai Thai in Astoria back in December 2024 and recently came back on a Friday…read moreevening in April 2026. Kam Rai Thai has a very cozy and warm atmosphere with fake flowers decor everywhere. Street parking can be hard at times and involve circling around a few times. Food menu can be accessed by QR code and paper menu for drinks. The first time I visited Kam Rai Thai, I shared the papaya salad with my friend and had the Pad woon sen with shrimp. The papaya salad with green papaya, string bean, tomato and roasted peanut with spicy lime juice was refreshing and light. The Pad woon sen has sauteed glass noodle, egg, onion, scallion, cabbage, celery, carrot, tomato and sesame oil. The second time I visited, I had the Pad see ew with beef. The Pad see ew has sauteed wide noodles with Chinese broccoli, black soy sauce, and egg. Both dishes were very flavorful, delicious, delectable, and appetizing. The dishes were very filling and there was a good proportion of noodles and protein. I've had the Rainfall in Loei and Fang Martini Time, both are really good drinks and not overly strong. We shared the mango sticky rice for dessert and it was good. The mango was very fresh and the sticky rice with coconut milk was sweet, but not overly. My friends ordered the Kopi De Trang, Spicy Maesai Plum, Rainfall in Loei, Thai ice tea lychee, pad see ew with chicken, pad kee mao beef (non spicy), and khao soi gai confit. I ordered a pad kee mao beef with a spice level of 2 to go. It is a great option to have a spicy and non spicy option for pad kee mao. Everyone enjoyed their food. Staff are very friendly and the food come out very quickly after ordering. There is a 5% discount if you pay with cash and a 2.95% surcharge for credit cards. Kam Rai Thai serves authentic Thai food and I can't wait to come back. It is a great place for friends to catch up.
