I was in the neighborhood today and decided to stop by My Black Thai for an early dinner with my sister. Its been a few years since my last visit, but I was happy to see the vibe and decor haven't changed and neither has the quality of the food! ​We shared the red snapper and two appetizers. My sister enjoyed her Tom Yum soup, and everything else came out fresh and nicely presented. We also tried the coconut rice; the portion was on the smaller side, but it was packed with flavor and looked nicely wrapped up with that pop of purple color. ​The service was great. Our server was attentive and the food came out quickly. Just a heads-up: since its on Northern Blvd in Elmhurst, parking can be a bit of a mission. But if you dont mind a short walk, you could find a spot a few blocks away. Its definitely worth it. We will be back! read more

The Scarlet Vetter says.....while in Queens New York City for business I decided to Uber Eats food rather than go out and about from my hotel. I was in the mood for Thai so I placed an order at this restaurant. I ordered chives pancakes, steamed vegetable dumplings, green chicken curry, and thin noodles with traditional Thai iced tea. The noodles were dreamy and the iced tea refreshing. The chive pancakes were perfectly cooked and fragrant. I had zero complaints about the rest of the order. I would have given this four 0stars but no utensils were included necessitating a trip down to the lobby of my hotel to locate some after I discovered the omission while unpacking the order in my room. read more

The best Thai food in Queens. Everything I ordered was flavorful and fresh. Great portion sizes. The seasoning is on point.

The server/ owner was very good to me! She was warm and friendly the food was so good. Did tell the owner the soup was salty. She did tell the cook. The ambiance is dark. If you add color it will give the appearance of the restaurant being larger. read more

I've been wanting to visit this place for a while. I'm so glad I finally came. I do wish they had a happy hour, I think it would attract more people because the food is amazing! The service is also very good, like most Thai restaurants. I also wish they had the Thai spices on the side to add to your dish. They still get 5 stars from me. read more

We're regulars at Black Thai, whether for takeout or dining in. Last time, we enjoyed a lovely meal with my mama and husbancito. The Black Thai salad was fresh and vibrant, just the right balance of spicy and tangy. We also had the shrimp fried rice, which always hits the spot. And you can't go wrong with the red curry with chicken. Nor can I forget the chicken fried rice - it's comfort food with a kick. The cozy ambiance and attentive service adds to the experience, making it perfect for a family dinner. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to! read more

I ordered from Black Thai on Thanksgiving, as my dinner plans fell through. I was happy to see that they were open on the holiday! The food was delivered in a reasonable timeframe, which I really appreciated. I ordered the Massaman curry with chicken and requested for it to be spicy. The spicy level was great, but the curry itself was a bit lackluster. It didn't have that creamy curry consistency that I usually enjoy. The drunken noodle was delicious and had just the right flavor. The portion was also pretty generous. I forgot to take a picture, but I also got the Thai iced tea, which was really refreshing and complemented the spicy curry. I think there is better Thai food out there, but if you're looking for some noodles, this is a great delivery option. read more

My Black Thai - Massaman Curry Drunken Noodle - Thai Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Much like Little Cesar's, it's hot and it's ready. Is it good? Sometimes. Anyone in the Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Woodside area knows there's no lack of Thai places available to us. Each one is a little different and has something to offer. The thing i value most about Black Thai is that there are amazingly fast. Like weird fast. Like, how did you get that done so fast, fast. That doesn't mean it's bad though. Black Thai is incredibly valuable when you've been running around all day and need something RIGHT NOW cause you let the day get away from you. This is the scenario I most often am in when I order from here. I know that at worst, the food will be ok, but often, it's actually incredibly good. While I value consistency in restaurants, I also appreciate that I'll never have a bad meal from here. Their pad thai and pad see ew are my go-to's. My move is to call, order, then immediately put my shoes on and start walking there, cause I know by the time I get there, it'll be ready for me. I love Black Thai and it's helped me sooo many times when I've been in a bind fighting with the monster that is hangry-ness. read more

Ate here today before work for lunch by myself. I had brought and ate the crab rangoon and spicy fried rice with crispy pork. It was pretty good and delicious. The service there was also friendly, and attentive that I didn't feel rushed about what to choose something to try for the first time. I couldn't agree more. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :) read more

The food was hot, flavorful and literally you can taste all the seasoning. The service was excellent and very attentive.

For appetizers we had the chive pancakes which were good, the chicken curry puffs were also good although not very meaty, and the chicken lettuce wraps were tasty but a bit too salty and they only gave 3 decent size pieces of lettuce, the rest were the inner pieces which is just too tiny. For dinner we had the crispy pork with drunken noodles, noodles a tad too sweet but good overall, my husband enjoyed his duck noodle soup, and red curry with chicken was average. Not my favorite, as it's something we get at every Thai restaurant. It wasn't bad just lacked depth and flavor, and wish it had wide bamboo shoots instead of matchstick. Thai iced tea was also good. Overall a decent meal, service was good, our waitress was friendly. I wouldn't make a special trip, parking was awful, but if in the area I would potentially return. read more

I live near here and should totally be going more often. I mostly come here for their thai tea, which is amazing!! It's not a powdered one, it's fresh I've also tried their crab rangoons and they're sooo good! Soft filling, great crunch! I wish that for $10, there was more than 4, but I get that crab is expensive, so it's okay! Definitely recommend the rangoons if you're looking to treat yourself! The service is great too. When I go, it's usually the same guy and he's very sweet and friendly. The decor around the restaurant is unique and calming to me, love the lighting! I recommend this place read more

Always one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the neighborhood, though sometimes their food is a little bit too salty, but overall the food is really good! However, the service needs to be improved. I came on a Saturday. The waitress was very friendly and polite. I went again today (a Thursday), it was already a few weeks later, a different waitress in glasses was there but she was not friendly and she was rude. I went there alone both times, and it was not rush hour. On that Saturday, I chose to sit at a 4-seat table near the register. The friendly waitress didn't stop me because it was not busy and there were many empty tables. While today when I went, it was not busy as well (after 2:30PM), I again chose to sit at a 4-seat table. The waitress in glasses was not happy and she made sure I came alone and asked me to sit at a 2-seat table. If it is busy, sure I will sit at a less seat table. Why can't I choose where to sit? And I saw the way she served the other customers, she was rude and unprofessional! The people at the other table wanted to place another order to go, and she thought they wanted the check. So she got them the check instead. Then one of the ladies told her that they actually wanted to order a new dish to go. Those people are not fluent in English, and this waitress was blaming them for not making it clear enough and she was saying they were confusing her. I was like, "Seriously? What kind of service is that??" Honestly, she just hates her job. I hope the management can look into the matter. The food is undoubtedly incredible, but the quality of service depends on who is on duty.. if the management doesn't train their staff well, it's not going to make good business. read more

My Black Thai - Pad Thai with tofu - Thai Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

I used to love coming here for both dine-in and take-out because their food's amazing! BUT........ Lately, their food have been lacking a whole lot. I'm not sure if they changed chefs or it's their ingredients lacking but I typically order the same thing (yes, I'm boring but I love getting the same thing here) and it just doesn't taste the same anymore. The Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) is my all time favorite thing here and some time 2-3 months ago, I ordered take out and it was def nowhere close to what I typically ordered. Penang Curry was overly salty but also lacking its authentic flavors and the rice seemed super stale/old. It was just strange. I also ordered some appetizers and honestly, they're usually pretty decent. Maybe it's a one off type of situation since maybe they had a different chef the day I order. Will def try again in the near future before I review it again. read more

Decent food, fast delivery, and huge portions. Food: the food was not the best Thai food. I had the drunken noodles with tofu. The drunken noodles with tofu. The noodles were overall fine, but the tofu lacked flavor. I would try this again with chicken. The pork pad see ew was very good! The duck roles were not great, I couldn't tast the duck - mostly vegetables and the flavor was a little off. I loved the dumplings, and would order the dumplings as a main meal next time. Honestly, the food was just ok, but the portion sizes were huge. One container of noodles is enough for two servings Service: I ordered delivery and they were so quick! If you need food quick, this is def the place to order from Price: great prices, especially given the portion size read more

Pretty good Thai place. Stumbled upon ordering from Black Thai through Grubhub as it was the fastest and cheapest. Food taste good, but some things were different than I've tasted at other Thai restaurants. Unless l received the wrong menu items as the Pad See Ew had carrots in it which my coworkers believed was drunken noodles and the dumplings I ordered were different from what was described. Food is good and delivery was quick so I do recommend. read more

Food is cooked to order and comes out steaming hot. You can adjust the spice levels to your liking, the ingredients are fresh and flavorful. There are an assortment of options from tofu to seafood to beef/duck and chicken. There are a variety of appetizers and soups and they have a dessert section in the back of the menu. They only serve beer and wine but I think a thai iced tea or tea/soda is the best bet. If I reviewed based on food alone, I would be tempted to rate this place a 3.5-- maybe 4 stars. However, the bathroom leaves something to be desired lacking the decor and deliberate design that is found in the dining area. It could also be cleaner. This place could be something really nice, intimate and cozy if they decided they would be more than slightly elevated Thai food. I would recommend this place for a simple date night or eating dinner with a small group of friends. Not a first date spot as it's small and everyone can pretty much listen to your conversation. Service was spot on and no one rushes you out. Pop in for a bit read more

Stumbled upon this Thai restaurant by wandering Northern Blvd. on a Saturday night. Dimly lit yet inviting interior and a pleasant hostess who seated us immediately when walking in. Fairly basic selection of drinks but a large menu of different food categories. Decided on the Beef Pineapple Fried Rice ($11) - a heaping pile of brown rice, mixed with veggies, pineapple, cashews, and sliced beef. Thankfully not too greasy and the cashews were a nice addition for texture. Beef is slightly overcooked, though not too chewy overall. Again, service does a good job here and they confirmed the veggie options can be made without fish sauce. Seems like a good option for delivery as well. read more

My Black Thai - Beef pineapple fried rice - Thai Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Probably my fav Thai restaurant. They cook spicy so be warned. All your typical Thai dishes are done very well. To start the spring rolls are crispy and tasty. The pad Thai is just the right amount and very tasty. If you don't prefer peanut just ask them to omit. It's not spicy unlike other places that make it spicy. I am for it Spicy. The red curry sauce is one of my favorite, so whatever you protein you choose it's just right. It's spicy. I order for take or delivery all the time. They are especially quick on their deliveries. In any weather food always gets there hot and tasty. I recommend it highly. read more

This is a highly recommended local Thai spot. The atmosphere is amazing inside and the design is something out of this world. The food speaks for itself always being so fresh and delicious. The prices are great too for the quantity of food that you are getting. I always get their Pad Woon Sen noodles with some vegetable rolls, and of course I can't skip out on that tasty Thai Iced Tea. The staff is very friendly from the times I've ordered over the phone, over Uber, and all the times that I have gone in person too! read more

Ordered through DoorDash while sitting in my hotel late night . Pengnang curry hold a very special place in my heart as does Thai iced tea . So naturally i ordered both .

The last four reviews I've done have been Thai restaurants . This spot was a small shop on Northern, from outside nothing super special to bring you in but the inside is decorated very nicely with some interesting decor, which definitely added to the vibe. It seems like a mom and pop shop but the service was top notch. The woman serving us was very friendly, told to us to take our time and enjoy the meal. I ordered the vegetable red curry lunch special and my friends ordered the spicy fried rice and pad Thai lunch specials. The food came out very quickly and tasted amazing. A small as the bowl of red curry looked, it was very filling, and the rice was super aromatic. Overall definitely one of the better Thai restaurants I've been to. The total came out to about $60 for all including two drinks (Thai tea and lychee). Street parking looks for Northern Boulevard. Overall definitely would return. read more

It has literally been frustrating for my mom and I to find a good Thai place (because we're both Thai & picky about how good the food should be). Like any typical asian mom, my mom disapproves of many Thai spots we go to and always has to point something out and we end up leaving talking shit about the food. I could not believe my moms reaction to her eating here bro. She just kept saying "arroy mak" which means "very tasty" and she was right. I've never had pad Thai in this country that had that much flavor. Unbelievable I loved all of it. The prices are reasonable. Honestly. Compared to other Thai restaurants, we had 2 appetizers, 3 entrees, & 2 Thai iced teas come out to less than $70 without gratuity added. Usually elsewhere ONE app and 3 entrees with only water would be almost $80. The waitress was super nice. She helped us with our parking issue too and was very attentive. Overall 5 stars to this place because you managed to make my hard to please Thai mom happy read more
