Panang Curry
Salma S.

We came in 30 minutes before closing, after moving furniture for about 3 hours 2 doors down. In spite of that they were still super accommodating. We had the shrimp appetizer, panang beef, massaman shrimp, drunken fried rice, pad thai and Thai tea. Panang curry was kind of mid but the quality of beef and the veggies were great. I'll go back for the fried rice for sure. Probably some of the best masaman I've had to be honest. The shrimp appetizer was delicious Pad Thai is pad thai and I'm never really a fan of it in general Thai tea was kind of a small glass and sweeter than I'd like but I know how to adjust it next time. My only issue is the internet went out so I had to make payment 2x because they thought it didn't go through but it actually did. But I am sure they will fix it when I give them a call today.

I ordered take out ! I had the Yellow Curry with extra veggies and spring rolls ! It was really really tasty! I waited about 20 mins. The restaurant is cozy and perfect for intimate conversations. It's in an easy to get location with plenty of parking. I will be going back for sure.

Ginger chicken.
Nadia M.

My favorite Thai restaurant in the area. Food is delicious, good portions and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is very tropical with a lot of real and fake plants. Service is really good too and the prices are very comfortable compared to other places in the Montrose area. Comida muy rica con precios muy accesibles, servicio bueno y el ambiente tropical del restaurante te relaja mientras comes, muy buena experiencia y los especiales del almuerzo son muy buenas.

Crab Fried Rice
Lorece S.

Nidda is a neighborhood staple. It's the place that first introduced me to Thai food. It used to be one of my favorites, but there's so many new spots, I hadn't been back in a while. So we decided to spin the block a few weeks ago. I ordered one of my usuals (crab fried rice) and it was good. I ordered it medium spice and it didn't taste spicy at all, but there was plenty of crab. My husband had the Basil Seafood and said it was good. Overall things weren't as flavorful as we would have hoped though. But I'm glad they're still kicking and I will always appreciate them for introducing me to a wonderful cuisine.

Side Cucumber Salad

Nidda is my favorite Thai restaurant in Houston. I have tried a couple of other places, but none compare to Nidda. The food is so good and authentic. Service is always friendly. I like the new remodel of the building. I felt like it was fine before, but I do like the new look. Feels warm and inviting inside. If you want GREAT Thai food, go to Nidda!

$23 Duck that came with one piece of meat and the rest of bone and skin.
Vivian N.

2 stars because the staff was very friendly but will not be coming back because this duck entree was $23.50 and came with one piece of actual duck meat and two pieces of bone and skin.

Curry Noodle!
William K.

Finally, a solid Thai food experience in Houston! The decor is nice and spacious inside, and the most important thing: the food and service were quite impressive. The server was very helpful in making sure my first impression wouldn't be my last by suggesting the Curry Noodle. I always request the dishes on the hotter side, and the spice level was spot on. They have some unique specials worth exploring, which I'll do for future visits. The price was nice, and the food was on point, so that's all you need to know. Plenty of parking in the lot. The only reason it gets 4 stars is because while dining in, there's just a cluster of workers (maybe delivery or general staff) seated in this one area. Might be a normal thing for some spots in Houston, but I'm not used to seeing the workers just 'chilling' out like that. Nevertheless, I'd highly recommend if you're looking for Thai in Space City!

mango sticky rice
Alejandra A.

This was my first time trying Thai food, amazing service, and the noodles were delicious. It had a great blend of flavors. I had the mango sticky rice for dessert . I will definitely be coming back.

Pad Thai and Curry
William L.

Tried out the Red curry + Pad Thai and an order of spring rolls. The curry was good, not spicy but good flavor, definitely a bit smaller on the portion sizes for the cost compare to some of the other Thai places around town. The Pad Thai was decent, with a nice balance of sweet and savory, and the toppings were well integrated with the egg. Service was good, a lot better for me than what I've seen on the reviews. Not too busy on a Friday night, decent size parking lot and cozy environment with a few dine-ins but alot of take out orders. Overall a decent Thai spot for the area.

Specials
India B.

I stopped in at Nidda Thai for a Saturday lunch before doing some things around Montrose. The inside is so cute and peaceful. Soft Thai ballads are playing, there's greenery, fountains, soft pastel coloring, and good lighting - well thought out decor that transports you to Thailand. There's a bar inside as well. I had the crispy, spring rolls, jasmine tea and the green curry with shrimp (it's pretty mild but likely made for the American palate, I'm sure you could ask for a hotter level). The curry was very tasty, one of the better ones I've had in Houston, and just what I needed on an overcast, cool day. The service was excellent, the waiter was very attentive and courteous. I'd be inclined to come back again.

Pad Thai, papaya salad
Sarah W.

The food is so good here! Better flavor and portions than other Thai options in the vicinity if you ask me. The papaya salad and the classic Thai salad with beef are our go-to items, and we'll usually get a noodle or curry to go with it. The service is fast, attentive, and friendly. Nice quiet dinner or lunch option in the neighborhood

Our waiter lol  (this is a joke and I hope the restaurant sees this)
Campos J.

Went there yesterday for the first time at like 7 ish , kinda of a late dinner but the place was empty. Kinda liked it though peace and quiet is rare these days. Waiter was the most chill guy ever and even made a excellent recommendation for me, I was going to order the seafood crab cake curry on there specialty menu but he suggested the fried pork and that was perfect for me I didn't leave there feeling stuffed and uncomfortably full and he didn't try to upsell me on something just because it sounded good. So mad respect to the waiter. The pork was perfectly crispy with some cucumber and tomato's (to clear the palate) and side of white rice and the nice glaze sauce. Also the Thai toast is definitely worth trying, I thought it was bomb. (There food has good flavor and is not over seasoned as a person who cooks regularly, I found this food here top tier)

53. Pad Si Ew
Tiffini D.

I ordered the pad see ew through my work's delivery site and it was pretty good. I feel like this should be an easy dish to make but so many places still get it wrong. I asked for no spice but I saw a few chilis as if they started to add it then read my order. Fortunately it wasnt enough to notice. The carrots seemed frozen judging by the multiple shapes but they were plentiful and cooked well. The chicken wasn't dry although there could have been more. It wasn't a very big portion for the price but I will order again if I'm not able to get away for lunch.

Ask the Community - Nidda Thai Cuisine

Calling Nidda's phone number still gets a disconnected number. Anyone have any updates on their reopening?

Phone works. Online menu / ordering does not.

Any update on the reopening of Nidda Thai? The sign has disappeared from the chain link fence around the shopping center. I fear the worst.

The owner said opening is soon! 1-2 weeks hopefully.

Does anyone have an estimate as to when Nidda Thai will be able to reopen? The pace of construction at that site seems rather leisurely.

They are open again!!

Are they open?

Yes! For take out only right now.

Any idea when they open? Phone is not ringing anymore

Re-opened for take out only

Has this place moved? Tried to go yesterday and the whole strip mall was a construction site.

They are temporarily closed due to the construction.

The dining area is pretty small, with around 10 tables, but it was surprisingly busy with so many people coming in to eat.

The food was honestly delicious and tasted quite authentic compared to other Thai restaurants I've tried. Everything was flavorful and well-seasoned, and our food came out surprisingly fast. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a little hidden gem that I'm happy to have found near my home. I'll definitely be coming back!

I wouldn't necessarily sit down here but if you want to you can. More of a grocery store than sit down restaurant. Khao soi gai: 7/10 This was so flavorful and delicious but definitely should have opted for the chicken instead of the soft shell crab I wasn't really a fan of the crab. Love the flavors and textures though. Definitely want to try with chicken and I recommend getting some rice on the side. Pad mama: 9/10 This had a really yummy vibrant flavor with a good amount of protein and leafy greens. Could be spicier I think the just gave us a random spice level. Overall really yummy and good portion for the prices but would love to retry with more spice in the dishes.

Soft music, white and red walls with Thai decor. Natural lighting during the day with warm interior lighting. It appears that there has been a makeover to the restaurant. I like the new look more. It seems more upscale in appearance. Dress code here is business casual. 4. Food - I've had their YELLOW CURRY WITH CHICKEN AND WHITE RICE.

Cleanliness - dining area is clean. The waitstaff keeps this place in tip top shape. The only complaint I have, although not exactly about cleanliness, I would suggest that management take a look at the lock in the men's restroom. Although it was locked, someone was able to enter still. SUMMARY This is a petite Thai cafe. Everything about this place was enjoyable. I would definitely come back to try again and will highly recommend this place.

amazing place check em out…read more vibes are great clean setting customer service top tier I appreciate much love greattttt

I went with my husband during Houston Restaurant Week, and maybe that was my mistake…read more We got the Thai ice tea and Thai jasmine green tea for drinks, squid and tofu for appetizers, the crying tiger and kua kling for entrees, and the sticky rice with mango and the coconut ice cream for desserts. I can confidently say that I was disappointed. There was not one dish that stood out or that I would recommend or come back for. I especially was sad that the crying tiger flavors really missed the mark. The sticky rice that came with it felt like it was reheated and some parts were hard. It also tasted like some of the vegetables (green beans and carrots) that come with the entrees were frozen, not fresh. The jasmine green tea tastes like a powder mix. Some of the squid tasted freezer burned. The kua kling was the most interesting and unique of the dishes, but not one that I would go out of my way to eat again. The sticky rice with mango was as expected. The coconut ice cream is probably pre-portioned and frozen so was rock solid when it came out. I did not find most of the toppings particularly good. It was a busy Friday and I know service was busy. The food did not take long to come out, but we definitely had dishes from previous courses that stacked up, and we had to ask them to be taken away. They do have a high chair for toddlers and brought a plastic plate/utensils, but there was not a changing table in the bathroom we used. We have had such great experiences at other Thai restaurants in Houston that I would not come back.

This has to be my favorite Thai restaurant in all of Houston. & I did have 3 to 4 favorites here…read more Street to Kitchen is authentically Thai so the spice levels are legit and they do not westernize any of the dishes, which I so appreciated. I'm in Indian, and whenever they asked for the spice level, I have to go with mild, because even the mild level is pretty spicy. You have to try at least one North Central time specialty dish. The lump crab was our favorite out of all of them. We ordered that for an appetizer in addition to the corn, fritters and wings. Our entrées included the green curry and the drunken noodles, and of course we had to finish it off with mango sticky rice. We were hungry, so we finished all of our food LOL And we will be back! Our waiter was great, we came to celebrate our six month wedding anniversary so they gave us celebratory bubbles. It's a busy restaurant, so we came right when it opened for dinner. Overall, this is a must try in Houston if you think you like Thai. This is real Thai.

"Welcome to Street to Kitchen. You're allowed 2 hours to finish your meal. Right this way," says…read morethe twentysomething with the ball cap. "Here, your party of 5 can squeeze into this tiny table in the corner while the rest of the restaurant remains virtually empty." Our server, a Millennial in an Astro's cap was kind enough to convey the rules of the establishment. Paraphrased, but it captures the spirit. 1. "This a chef-driven menu. There are absolutely no substitutions." 2. "Regarding spice level, our Mild is hotter than anything you've ever tasted, so don't even try Medium. But if any dish comes without spice you will not be allowed to order a side of spice. It's family style, so everyone must agree. No exceptions." 3. "The Green Curry is grandma's recipe. We insist you order it. Here is a wooden bowl. This is the proper way to eat curry. It's not supposed to slop around on your plate." 4. "May you have a side of that sauce? No. You'll have to order a third chicken appetizer to get that sauce. No side orders allowed." 5. "Enjoy our music selection of hardcore rap. We've located the speaker conveniently near your table." 6. "Don't mind us as we hover while you eat. This helps us hurry things along." 7. "Your takeaway will be valeted and given to you when you leave. Here's your claim ticket." To the food: Excellent. The Masaman curry was out of this world (better than Grandma's green, which was also good). Drunken noodles and Pad Thai were excellent. All appetizers were good too, but be sure to save the sauces because you won't get them again. It was like dining with the Soup Nazi. Everything about the experience was deeply ironic. I mean, who wouldn't want to be condescendingly taught the proper way to eat curry? I mean, I've just turned 50 and have so much to learn. Would we return? Definitely. The whole experience was so absurd I kinda want to do it all over again just for the laughs. And the pain.
