Excellent food with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Good for both eat-in and take-out. Nice little dining room. read more

An overall okay experience, but not worth visiting frequently. I went for dinner and ordered the coconut shrimp and chicken teriyaki. The coconut shrimp was amazing--tender, well cooked, crispy, and perfect in every way. The chicken teriyaki, however, was disappointing. The chicken wasn't marinated at all; it was basically boiled chicken with teriyaki sauce on top, and they called it chicken teriyaki. Lastly, the restaurant was labeled as Thai food, but the majority of the front menu consisted of ramen and rice plates, with no curry or pad Thai whatsoever. It felt more like a fast-food-driven place. read more

The food was really good here! This is an extremely vegan friendly restaurant! The scallion pancakes and vegetable dumplings were very good. I don't usually like pad thai, but the pad thai was good, too. The drunken noodles, and masaman curry were excellent! It's cute inside, didn't feel too cramped. read more

Tried Little Spoon Thai Kitchen for the first time and it was just okay overall. The veggie dumplings were fine, but the chive dumplings were way too oily and not very appetizing. The Kao Soi had potential but was overpowered by one strong herb -- maybe lemongrass -- so it was hard to taste or smell much else. The lo mein was fine, very mild in flavor, which actually worked well for little kids but felt a bit bland for adults. Not a bad meal, but nothing that stood out enough to make me want to go back soon. read more

I truly enjoyed my meal here today. Great duck pad Thai. The wings were well done too and tasty. My second time here and I think this place is very nice. Fantastic ambiance. The customer service was good but the waitress kept giving me looks of anger for asking for little things like sauce and chopsticks. I tipped her well to make up for annoying her. The peanut sauce on that note, is really really delicious.. I found myself dipping wings in it ... The curry is amazing too. Oh; and the iced Tea is a work of art. read more

3.5-4/5 decent Thai restaurant for the area location. Tried their Kao Sai Beef dish, beef was slightly overcooked and the noodles were as well but the flavor is good. The wings were delicious. The pork dumplings were lightly pan fried and tasted great. The spicy eggplant was more on the spicy side so thank Goodness it came with rice. Great location with street parking and nice service and decor. read more

What a cozy and delicious restaurant! The menu had lora of great Thai dishes and some creative options like Thai iced tea with a popsicle and tonkatsu ramen. The menu has lots of pictures of the food, which I love. It's also a lovely texture and nice layout. Who knew I wanted a menu feel? The restaurant is really cute outside seating under umbrellas, an open front room that can be sunlit windows/shades, and a more closed off back section with dim lights. There were clusters of real flowers on the table and incredibly pretty silverware. The Jade green bathroom was glorious! I loved the chicken dumplings, ramen, and pad thai. The tofu chunks were just right and the flavors were exactly what I was looking for. It wasn't spicy at all, just great lime and peanut flavor with yummy noodles. It was really snug in the back section at a table for 2. Felt like we were eating with everyone on that long bench seat, there's just no privacy. It's also so hard to get in and out. So, I wish I'd been in a more expansive seating area, but there were lots of bigger tables and I'm sure if I went with 3-5 people it would've been perfect. read more

I love Little Spoon! Whether takeout or dine in, I have yet to be disappointed. The dumplings are somewhat small (both the portion size and the dumplings themselves), but I know that now. The main entree portions are a great size. The food is fresh & always tasty. There are so many items I want to try, but my go-to is the Pad Thai (the spicy one is delicious too!). The decor is adorable and thoughtful. read more

A very pretty restaurant and the utensils/plates used are adorable. The dishes themselves were pretty yummy, although the appetizer was alright (a little overpriced for what we got). I enjoyed the veggies in my pad thai, normally I don't like carrots but the way they cooked had it full of the pad thai flavor. read more

This place is a nice spot in Needham. The staff are always friendly and I'm never disappointed by the food. I got the Black & Pepper fish, which is basically a battered fried fish stirfry. The fish was cooked well, but the star of the dish are the fresh peppercorns; they pop and add a vibrancy to the plate that I haven't found elsewhere in Boston so far. We also got 2 Thai ice teas, and got 2 free popsicles with them. We'll be back! read more

The food is amazing. I work nearby and order frequently. I will not be ordering again. I hope my review encourages some change in order to improve their customer experience. I went to pickup my lunch order. The front person was less than welcoming to say the least. Waked in. She looked at me and said nothing. So I told her I was picking up my order. 'Name?' While I was waiting for my order, I watched a party of 3 come in. No welcome, how are you.. no smile... (maybe my expectations are too high?) The only thing she asked was what they wanted to drink. I think she was having a bad day or something.. but this is your REPRESNTATIVE of your business. She handed me my order and said NOTHING. I expect at least a thank you, or a smile and a nod? Glad I didn't tip! read more

The lunch we ordered was absolutely delicious! It hit the spot!! It was easy to order and have delivered.

Another place with ratings that are way over inflated by so called "Yelp elites". Go running the other way when the reviews start with five, five-star reviews by "elites". Our meal here was okay, but nothing special. Nice space. Service was a little slow. read more

This place is fantastic. I put my coworkers onto little Spoons and they very much enjoyed it. The food taste fresh every time and the flavor is rich and crisp. Nothing tastes like it's watered down. I've been there in person as well. Service is great and the staff are friendly and accommodating. Clean restaurant. read more

I've gotten takeout from here before but dined in the restaurant for the first time last night. I love the decor and ambiance and with the back room, it's a lot more spacious than it appears. The waitress was very prompt and friendly. I appreciated how the menu was clearly labeled with what's vegan/can be made vegan. We started with the tom kha soup which was creamy and rich and flavor. We also got the scallion pancakes as a starter and I love how they aren't dripping in oil but are still tasty. I also enjoyed the drunken noodles with tofu and the yellow curry with tofu. Both were spicy but not overly hot. I also love how they fried the tofu in both these dishes. I will definitely be back! read more

Overall, the food was all right had better Thai, buT OUR SERVER WAS DISRESPECTFUL AND OUT OF LINE! Food filled the craving a little bit. The presentation was cute for the food we also had to appetizers before which I didn't take a photo of. The atmosphere was cute. Went on a Sunday near one not really that busy just another group in one corner and then me and my husband and another. Ordering was fine but the only reason why I'm giving two stars now is the woman that I've highlighted in one of the pictures. Upon paying for the bill, we asked to split it two way between me and my husband that seems a little bit of an issue, but she did it, but once there was no tip from my husband she kept saying "you know that charge didn't included a tip yeah" we said we know. And she kept insinuating for my husband to press the 15% tip on A $67 bill charge for food. My husband looked uncomfortable, so when it was my turn to pay my side of the bill and I didn't tip either because she kept insinuating for us to put in the tip before we even started paying much she flipped out and stated. " so no tip then no future service. only takeout." we were beyond confused as to why she was flipping out, but I definitely didn't tip after that. I hadn't even finished paying for the rest of the bill by the time that she was fuming. I said sorry I don't usually tip when waiters don't check up on us regularly or at all which she didn't and barely even spoke to us that got her more mad and then she started cussing at me and when I'm gonna guess is either Mandarin or something else because of her accent. I said it to her that she didn't have to be disrespectful and pushy to which she said something that I didn't really understand, but was very aggressive. I said "no don't get aggressive with us." She did so even more and we left. Overall wouldn't come back. read more

Little Spoon is such a lovely Thai restaurant. A delightful atmosphere and solid Thai food, sometimes a bit too salty but otherwise fantastic!! Anything I have had here is to die for, specifically the Pad Thai. Service is always up to par and my most recent experience was very efficient. And if you are looking for a little sweet treat, I highly recommend the Thai iced tea with a popsicle!! read more

Been waiting to try this place. It finally happened! Love the interior. Honestly, Needham has an underrated restaurant scene. There are so many great places there. Love the pad thai. It was spicy and made with chicken. No left overs. My table ordered dumplings and coconut shrimp that looked awesome. The reviews they gave were 5 star. Service was great. People so friendly. I'll be back to this place. I'm excited to try more dishes. read more

Deliciously fresh Thai and ready fast for lunch. Got to go order so no pictures this time. Look forward to returning.

My family LOVES Little Spoon. We enjoy their food for both dine-in and take-out. Ingredients always taste fresh and their dishes are filled with flavor. The food is consistently delicious and the employees are wonderful. My parents have been finding it more and more difficult to eat out at restaurants due to the noise volume at most places. However, despite being small in size, the noise level inside never gets too loud and the restaurant always feels cozy. We have never ordered anything that we did not like. Their Tom Kha soup is dream-worthy and is always a must have when we order. We also love their drunken noodles and both the red and green curry. We usually switch up the starters that we order but have enjoyed every item on their menu that we have tried. The staff are always friendly and attentive and the restaurant has a wonderful ambiance no matter what time of day you go. read more

Stopped in for early dinner Ordered pork dumplings, drunken noodles beef. I had dumplings before and always fresh but only 5 and small ... for price Drunken noodles I ordered I was not impressed with. I've had elsewhere and here... not many noodles, noodles excess soft and not enough flavors. Beef was ok, again no flavors...not many vegetables . I had hope for better here . I'll try again after I try my other Thai spot for my noodles. read more

Food tasted okay, but service was lacking and unfriendly. It felt as though I was in the way. I won't be back.

Stopped in for lunch with a couple friends today. Really cute place, super nice people. I had a Panang crispy duck, super good. The Kaffir leaves were fresh and tiny which made it extra special. One of my buddies had the chicken wings. The Thai ice tea had a bonus tea popsicle. A nice fancy twist on an old classic. I would be a regular here if I lived closer. read more

One of the best pad thai dishes I've ever had - and I'll admit thar I've had more than my share. Often this dish is too dry and can also lack flavor not the case with Little Spoon. They serve it up right. I'm so happy I found the spot. read more

Checked out this place today after some shot in nearby union place pharmacy. This place is small but cozy. I love the gold utensils. Totally feels more upscale than normal Thai place. The service is a bit slow even though it is not full. So, come if you are not in a hurry. The appetizer and entree (coconut shrimp, pad Thai, caprak chicken, and teriyaki chicken) were good and tasted authentic enough. However, they are not memorable but given the price, it is a good place to go if you just want decent food. read more

The food was quite good but it felt like we were being rushed out from the moment we sat down (with a reservation).

DO NOT TRUST GLUTEN-FREE PREP HERE. My daughter (who has celiac) went here for a birthday dinner meal with 5 of her friends. When she asked how the dishes marked gluten free on the menu would be prepared as gluten free, she realized (a) they do not use a separate grill, (b) for gluten-free prep, they replace fish sauce with soy sauce. When my daughter (who is 17) tried explaining to the owner that (a) without a separate grill, cross-contamination is an issue, and (b) soy sauce has gluten, the owner/manager was extremely rude and condescending to my daughter and her friends, and failed to acknowledge that his so called gluten free prep is not gluten free at all. So anyone who is gluten-intolerant, has celiac, or is allergic to rude owners/managers, avoid this place. read more

Thought I'd try to help a relatively new business. I ordered by phone and from the start I was concerned that my food might not be up to par. I was very clear that I wanted large tom yum soup, thai spicy 3-star and wanted extra vegetables added. The female (owner I believe) told me they only had one size - small. I found that odd, but accepted it and reemphasized I wanted extra vegetables added. Next I ordered the mixed vegetables with brown rice and tofu. I ordered it thai spicy 4 star and asked them to not use oil in it, just use a little of their brown sauce to make the dish. The female said they needed to use oil so the food doesn't stick. (Maybe the should get a property seasoned cat iron wok?) I questioned why they couldn't just use the minimum amount of brown sauce (which has a tiny bit of oil already in it) instead of adding more oil. She said they couldn't do it that way. I reluctantly agreed to accepting MY food, THEIR way and asked again (emphasized) they only use bare minimum and told her I didn't want oil at all but accepted the bare minimum they needed to cook the food. Fifteen minutes later, I entered the restaurant. The food was still being prepared. I was the only customer inside. While I waited, I look the place over and read a newspaper article preserved in a frame on the wall. It spoke of the female owner's emigration to the USA, some challenges, the birth of her child and vision for her business, including its name change prior to opening. Twice during my 15 minute wait for the food, I was asked by two different employees to pay for my order while they were cooking it. Because I have experienced an issue in the past with other takeout orders, paying while the order was being made and finding it was wrong when they gave it to me and either having a discussion with the restaurant manager to get it redone the way I ordered it and they do or getting stuck with food not meeting my requests, thus having to pay for it, tossing it, and having to go elsewhere for food and paying for it too (something I work hard not to accept as the final outcome). Therefore both times I declined to pay first and told them I will pay when I see and check what I ordered and it was made according to my request and they accepted (thus a verbal contract). When the food arrived I was asked again to pay for it. Again I said I would as soon as I checked it to make sure it was made the way I ordered it. The male worker wasn't happy and questioned why i needed to check it but he accepted it. To my surprise, the order didn't have any tom yum soup at all. The mixed vegetables were coated completely 100% with oil. And even worse, they gave me deep fried tofu cut into triangles. Could the order have ever been more wrong and totally opposite what I asked for? I don't think so. I pointed out the discrepancies and in response they offered to add the tom yum soup. I told them it didn't correct the oil soup mixed vegetable dish and deep fried tofu I didn't order and left fuming. I went to a pizza place nearby instead. It was Greek and the pizza sauce had no flavor but was something to eat, so I went with it. Overall I do not recommend this establishment at all. Maybe there is a communication issue with the owner and staff not being native to the USA, but when running a business having at least sufficient English proficiency is essential. read more

We have been searching for a long time for good Thai food in the suburbs. We finally found it. We had the spicy Pad Thai with shrimp and the Spicy Duck. Both lived up to their names and were full of flavor. The takeout menu gives you a choice of spiciness from 1 to 5. We chose 2 for the Pad Thai and 3 for the duck. I think the Pad Thai was actually a bit spicier but both were what we were expecting, which was hot enough to be noticed but not distracting from the tastes of the other ingredients. The place looked inviting when we picked up our order. We are looking to going back for a sit-down dinner. read more

Ordered takeout for 5 people for lunch. Everything was prepared very well, but the portions are a bit small and bit pricey for the amount you are getting. First time trying Thai food and the taste was phenomenal. Pad Thai was prepared amazingly and had the perfect ratio of peanut sauce to noodles. The cashew chicken was also amazing, super tangy and fried perfectly. Would recommend these two entrees. A little bit stingy on the sauce even when asking for extra (only 1 small soy sauce for about $120 worth of food) but otherwise great! read more
