Very nice Thai restaurant. The staff is friendly and the decor is very interesting. Their food is a slightly more upscale than your typical Thai restaurant. It is very tasty, but the service is a bit slower than other restaurants. The drunken noodles were good, but I would definitely give the pad Thai a try next time. read more

NaPha Thai Kitchen - Pad Kee Mao (Ground Chicken) - Thai Near Me - Middletown, Rhode Island

Had an enjoyable dinner here last night. The atmosphere was nice and cozy, the service was great and the food was very good! I loved the cucumber water that they give you. So refreshing and tasty! Crab Rangoons were AMAZING. So full and flavorful Summer Rolls were nothing great, flavorless and too much avocado in each wrap. I wouldn't order them again. Shrimp Pad Thai was delicious. Probably the best ever. Not too sweet, the perfect flavor. Will definitely come back! read more

The first recipient of our dining dollars while vacationing for four days on Acquidneck Island was NaPha which translated means "heavenly". We parked in the back lot and made our way to the dining room where we found only one table occupied on Father's Day. After carefully reviewing the menu and ordering we experienced a relatively long wait because the kitchen likely was backed up filling to go orders that had been called in. Prices on the menu had been manually adjusted upwards by a few dollars though still deemed reasonable. Our entrees, pad kee mao and pad see ew both with chicken, arrived hot and each was pretty good though I would not be in a rush to return since there are two other Thai restaurants located closer to our lodging (The Pell). read more

I loved this place and I hope they continue to do well. The restaurant was nicely decorated. The food was outstanding, some of the best Panamg Curry I've ever had. The family who owns it is very sweet. The food was definitely worth the wait. The service was great. read more

There is a small parking lot in the back of the building with access to the restaurant through a door and stairs vice front access. Quickly seated by friendly staff. Comfortable dining area and was seated at table next to fire place which was nice on a cold night. There is bar seating available as well. Gyoza was a bit greasy vice steamed and lackluster in taste . Pad thai with chicken was good, but was a little low on the flavor and punch scale for me. Good atmosphere for a quick sit down meal with family or friends! read more

Just riding down the street and saw this restaurant and my family went in to check it out. The inside was super cozy, they had the fireplace going and had a nice home feel to the place. The service was OK. The lady forgot my child's ice cream. We just didn't make a big deal about it. I ordered the curry with potatoes. It was very good. The spice level was just right. Look forward to going back and trying a higher spice level next time the flavored water was a nice touch and they have a nice well stock bar with a lot of different options. Everybody's food came out good nobody had any complaints. Definitely look forward to trying this place again in the future. read more

NaPha Thai Kitchen - Massaman Curry - Thai Near Me - Middletown, Rhode Island

We were visiting Newport and had dinner at NaPha Thai, which was very close to our AirBNB. We started with lychee martinis - they were fine, not very strong though. We then split the Tom Yum chicken soup, stir fry chicken with cashew nuts, and pad see ew noodles. All was good, but I would say priced a bit higher than I would expect for the location and ambiance. Service was spotty - we were not checked on often. However, I appreciate this small restaurant being available and providing a decent dinner. read more

The service was prompt and respectful, the restaurant atmosphere felt like it brought some of Thailand's culture to Rhode Island, and the food was amazing! The Pad Thai was perfectly made, and they don't play when it comes to spice! after my mouth was doused in fire, the Mango Sticky Rice was exactly what i needed to calm it down! 10/10, will recommend again! read more

My son and I just picked up the chicken with noodles(Drunken Noodles). BEST ever and we are picky about this dish. Perfect spicy level, onions, peppers finely cut, cooked, and not just thrown in last minutes like so often. FIVE STAR and probs our favorite dish in all of Newport(outside of seafood). Thanks NaPha first time and won't be the last! read more

Crispy duck curry is the best here! The sweet lady that is always here gets our food super fast and it's always delicious. Sit by the fire, it's a very cozy romantic spot. read more

NaPha Thai Kitchen - Crispy duck curry - Thai Near Me - Middletown, Rhode Island

We have tried take out and gone to the restaurant many times. The food is very good but the kitchen is extremely slow. Last visit we waited very 40 minutes for appetizers then another 20-30 minutes to get main dishes. In the past service was average this last visit extremely slow and the waitress did not clearly understand the dishes we ordered .Take out is not available most nights and if it is plan on hours to get your order This last time we were 5 but the waitress put us down as 6 and added 18% gratuity automatically. The service was poor and did not merit 18%. Even though we like the food we will not go back! Sorry read more

We were staying in Newport on Christmas evening and looked for a place to have a light dinner that was close to our hotel. NaPha Thai Kitchen came up on Yelp and they were open that night. It's a delightful colorful spot that was beautifully decorated inside for the holidays. We ordered a bowl of delicious Miso Soup that we shared. We also had Lo Mein noodles with veggies and tofu that was cooked to perfection and extremely tasty. Our waitress was delightful and even brought a lit candle for atmosphere. I would highly recommend this wonderful restaurant which is some of the best Thai food we have ever had. We thanked the owner who was very friendly and hope to come back soon! read more

We loved this place! Everything was delicious. Service was friendly and thoughtful. NaPha is nestled in a house and it feels like you are at someone's home. Nothing tasted like it was from a can. All freshly prepared ingredients. The red curry was absolutely amazing. So so good. Chicken satay was tender and tasty. You can't go wrong here! read more

I have one of the best salads I've ever had. It was extremely fresh and interestingly cut vegetables filled the bowl. There was an extra extraordinary peanut sauce. It was delicious. I also had the wings as an appetizer and the sauce on them was fantastic. This is a great place to go for a good time meal. read more

We arrived when there were zero people at the restaurant at 2 pm and the gentleman asked just two and I said yes, do you want to do takeout and he said no okay. They only have one fryer so we could not order spring rolls as we are vegetarian. We ordered red curry and green curry and medium spicy but he made it extra spicy. He was not interested in serving us but I did see there was a DoorDash order they prepared. The portions are very small and when I inquired if they had lunch specials he said no it is all same price which is fine! The 3.5 stars are because the restaurant is clean and food is good - give a little more curry and a lot less rice and easily 4/5 read more

I was really excited to try some Thai food while visiting Newport, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing. The food was honestly kind of disgusting, and the food quality did not meet expectations. We ended up waiting a very long time for service, and we felt like we were kind of held hostage because it took the waitress, who seemed to be cooking in the back forever, to get back with us just to even get a check. We ended up waiting for almost 30 minutes. I was looking forward to a great meal, but sadly the experience fell short. read more

Tasty food, but I would not put Boney M. in a Thai restaurant. Maybe that is just me. The dishes are tasty, but I would not infuse too much coffee into a Thai iced tea. Maybe that is just me. The Tom Yum soup is kinda bland with not too much of anything else. Maybe that is just me. I liked the food but I know it can be a lot better than what is being offered. Maybe that is just me. read more

I ordered Pad Thai and Crab Rangoons on a Sunday afternoon, to go. I placed an order via the website. It was ready on time and everything was given to me correctly. The pad Thai was delicious. I ordered no spice and would probably get mild next time. It had a lot of bean sprouts on top, not a personal favorite of time but totally normal for the dish. I'd ordered it again and ask for less bean sprouts next time. There was plenty of tofu included, which was my protein of choice. They also offered chicken, beef, etc. The crab Rangoon was phenomenal. The wontons were crispy and hot. The filling was creamy, with a good wonton to filling ratio (sometimes the filling can be skimpy elsewhere! I didn't find that here). The dipping sauce was light and complimented the dish well. The inside of the restaurant was spacious and had lots of plants. I would go back to dine in and I will definitely be back to get take out. Total price was around $35 for both dishes. I'd be very interested in trying the $12.95 lunch special (see menu in photo). read more

This is my second time at this establishment, the first time being when they first opened which was about 2 years ago. Service has improved since then. Waitstaff is more attentive. The food is okay. Started off with the gyoza , vegetable dumplings. I asked for them steamed instead of pan fried which they were able to do. The dumplings skin was not the typical flour wonton but instead it was either a spinach flavor as it was dark green & tasted like it had a hint of seaweed flavor as well. It was okay as the veggies inside tasted like onions. For my main meal had the pad Thai with tofu. It was good, I have had better, but I did like the tofu. My great niece had the beef teriyaki as this was the first time trying Thai food. She liked the beef teriyaki especially the sauce & the vegetables looked like they were cooked well, still a bit crunchy & not mushy. read more

Beware of using door dash or any delivery service, they cancelled our order after waiting for an hour without apology or any accountability! Not a reputable restaurant! read more

Excellent Thai food! Located inside Rheas Inn with its own entrance. I had the Panang curry with Pork and fried rice. Most rice dishes provide choice of white or fried rice at same price. The fried rice had scrambled egg pieces and a few rice pieces were crispy. Definitely worth getting. Their spice level on the menu is from 1 to 5 's. I asked for hot (3 's). The entree and rice came super hot temperature -wise like it left the skillet 10 seconds ago. I had to wait a few minutes to cool down, but it was well worth it. The ambiance was quiet and very nice. I sat facing the window admiring the old houses across the street and sunshine so I did not pay too much attention. One note: iced tea does not have free refills. I understand Thai iced tea is no refills but $3.95 per regular tea was a bit much. No big deal I will just get water next time to go with the great food. Seriously one of the best Panang I've have had in a long time out of the last 10 cities I've been to!! read more

NaPha Thai Kitchen - Excellent. Panang curry with fried rice - Thai Near Me - Middletown, Rhode Island

We got takeout here after my husband recommended the place- and it was delicious!! I got the pad thai, which was really flavorful. What struck me most was that the chicken was actually tender and moist, you could tell that they took care with the dish. So many Thai places just throw in overcooked chicken, but not here, it was actually really good. My son loved his crispy rolls (like spring rolls) as well, they were great. The service was also spot on, I ordered through Google and it was ready when it said it would be. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try Thai cuisine! read more

My wife and I went here for the first time. We used to go to Rhea's when it was located here. It looks similar inside. It is a casual atmosphere and makes you feel at home. The server came over and took our drink order. The cocktails were really well made and reasonably priced. We started with the edamame and it was excellent. It had just the right amount of salt. We followed with some soup. Mine had lots of mushrooms and a most delicious broth. We had a chili roast duck that was incredible. The chili sauce had the right amount of heat and the veggies were perfectly prepared and had the right amount of crunch. The duck was tender and the ski was nice and crispy Price was very reasonable and we will be back again. read more

1. Food: 4/5 based on food we had ordered (chives cake, spring rolls, chili tofu, pad seaew tofu and panang curry with tofu) 2. Ambience: 4/5 - great cozy Thai place 3. Service: 0/5 - walked in when owners were too cozy and drinking at the bar. Drinking went on for an hour till we were there (we were the last customer). They forgot one of the main dish and when we we reminded them then owner asked us what did we order. We requested brown rice and we were given an attitude and funky face that why would we request brown rice. No one came to us to check on us or ask if anything is required or how is the food. It is just horrible that owners drinking at the dinner service and forgets about their customers. Poor behavior. Please do go in to enjoy the food but be ready to be disappointed by service. read more

That Wonton Soup tho! NaPha is a sweet hidden gem nestled inside of what appears to be a bed and breakfast (?) in Middletown, Rhode Island. There's a few parking spaces in the front and many more in the back, but from the street, the white building doesn't look like much. That being said, once you go inside, you are greeted by a cozy and warm wood paneled restaurant with a new-looking bar, clean tables, and a real crackling fireplace. It's perfect as we head into the winter months, and we were lucky enough to snag the table right by the roaring fire. The menu consists of the usual suspects of many Thai restaurants. We enjoyed our stirfried entrees, but the real star of the show as the aforementioned Wonton Soup. It's a giant bowl for $8, brimming with dumplings, flavorful broth, and lots of coriander. I think about it all the time, and would totally order a Doordash bowl if it wasn't Thanksgiving. Maybe tomorrow... The other entrees were yummy, but a little bit pricier than I would have expected. It was our first visit, though, so we wanted to order a bit more than we would have normally. I did appreciate the complimentary Chili Oil Edamame, which were delicious. I think next time, it's the Wonton Soup for me. read more

A good addition to the Island dining scene. A step above the other Thai restaurants. Giant menu; good serve. Ample parking out back. Party of 3 - split the chicken satay. Entrees were duck pad Thai, chicken pad Thai, and green chicken curry. All tasty and generous portions. Curry was quite spicy. Damages with tip and cocktails was $120 read more

How do I leave a six star review? Cause that's what this place deserves. The customer service was so astounding that everywhere I've ever been before this should be ashamed. And it was done with a single server on the floor (though it was a slow Sunday on my visit). The food was really good. My first time trying Thai food and I'm in love. The spice level of my dish was perfect at a 3 (slightly runny nose as I finished eating), but my buddy who's a dare devil said the 5 wasn't spicy enough for him (he was red faced and sweating around bite 5 or 6). Cozy converted home setting, with gentle music playing in the background. It was very peaceful. Cannot recommend you eat here enough. read more

The food is mediocre. The owner has good intentions but she is weird. When we ordered our food with medium spice, she warned us that the chef makes everything on a native Thai scale and we should get mild. Our food arrived with zero spice. She brought us old and stale chili flakes that lost their mojo. The jasmine rice was dry and a bit crunchy. When I pointed this out, the server said "I don't know" and walked away. read more

Mediocre at best for Thai dinning. We were barely greeted by an unfriendly man behind the bar that later was our waiter. It was an uncomfortable experience all together. We both had trouble understanding one another. The food took a long time to arrive. The only time the waiter revisited was to ask if we wanted dessert. We politely declined and paid the bill. Do Not Recommend. read more

New Thai spot in Middletown/Newport area. Got takeout for lunch. Wanted to try the pad kee mow but the menu said it's only with ground chicken, so decided to try the pad see ew instead. The lunch special comes with spring rolls and soup (there are other options as well). Flavor profile is similar to pad Thai. I've never had it before, but it tasted good, more on the authentic side with just the Chinese broccoli, though I probably wouldn't try it again. Didn't get the soup or any utensils with my order. Overall Aok experience. read more

Ladies day out with a group of ten, NaPha Thai did an amazing job accommodating such a large party. Our waitress was very sweet and welcoming. They have a soup and salad station for the lunch special and food comes out fast. Dining at NaPha Thai you feel like you are in someone's colonial dining room. Warm fire places and colonial decor really gave that New England vibe. The food was delicious, portion size was okay. I had the pad Thai, and I thought there would be more to it, but it was enough to satisfy my hunger. I'm definitely coming back with the fam! read more
