Order was cancelled immediately after placing it due to a mixup. Was charged 34 dollars from the restaurant even though order was not processed read more

I really like this place and it is infinitely better since they moved 2 doors down - cleaner, more staff, faster. However I ordered takeout and the Curry came in a container with the rice on bottom. When I got home everything was mushy and the curry became tasteless Never had that happen before so as a tip if you're ordering take out just tell them to put it in separate containers! read more

Chicken pad Thai was horrible. Noodles had no flavor and I couldn't even chew the chicken - it had obviously been cooked ahead and then recooked to serve - so dry and hard it was inedible. read more

Food is very similar to Rod Dees. My favs are Indonesian Fried Rice and crab rangoon. Place is a bit off the beaten path but worth a try if you are in the area. read more

The previous pad thai cafe located around the corner was a joke.. Serving food that was prepared with ingredients that were not fresh and with overall poor quality. Glad to see they've improved. The Pad Thai was pretty good, on par with other Thai places around boston. Beef rendeng tasted fine.. But was basically just their red curry with a higher price tag. Next time.. Yeah I'll just get the red curry. Overall pad thai cafe is ok. read more

Inconsistent portion size. Good for take out, just don't like when you order something and it looks like someone's leftovers. read more

Not a bad spot for a Thai fix! I came in here because it was the first restaurant I laid my eyes on after finding street parking nearby and I'm not mad. It's a small cafeteria style/takeout restaurant where you order and pick your plate up at the counter, and no servers. Their food is still just as good as any traditional sit-in Thai restaurant you'd find though, plugs lots of authentic dishes to choose from. I had to try their Pad Thai (2* spicy), of course, and also the Salmon Choo Chee Curry. Very delicious pad thai, as authentic as you'd find in the streets of Thailand, they even use thin rice noodles and whole green onions, however, there were many tiny black burned specks in there, which I know from experience, is from the wok, which is yucky. Do not accept that, as I did, and return it if you see that. I was just in a rush. Anyways, the curry was absolutely delicious. Presented well and perfectly cooked salmon, and the curry was not at all watery, where some restaurants are known to cheat out on. All in all, pretty happy I came in! read more

The food is so good and always fresh. I've gotten the pad Thai, crispy pad Thai, and pho ga and have always been more than happy with it.

Good food, Great prices, quick service. Enjoyed the meal here and is conveniently located. Would definitely eat here again.

Food isn't horrible. I'd give it a 2.5. But the service is terrible. I waited 25 minutes for a shrimp pad thai. Did they go to the gulf of Mexico, catch shrimp, fly back and make the pad thai? Worst of all, other people order pad thai way after me and got it way before me very annoying. Wouldn't go here again just for the horrible service. No apologies, nothing. The pad thai was mediocre. They gave me 4 pieces of small shrimp. read more

We love this place - food is spicy and flavorful and not Americanized to fit other peoples palettes. We've never had an issue with service. It's a small restaurant with tables no frills. Really though - the food is bananas good read more

PadThai Cafe - Tom yum with chicken - Thai Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I LOVE this place. I have ordered a ton of different dishes but I almost always get green curry with tofu. It is spicy and flavorful and the vegetables are perfectly crunchy. And they make your food very quickly and you can get out for under $10 even with a decent tip. I've had better Thai food in my life but I've paid at least twice as much to get it. read more

Regretfully, I will never eat at this establishment again. I have been frequenting PadThai Café since I moved to Boston last years. I've always enjoyed their food. However, last night I wasn't treated with the same hospitality and I ended up leaving before I finished my dinner. I work late and I don't often eat dinner until after 9pm. I showed up at 9:15pm - well before closing time - and the first thing I experienced was the cashier pushing me to get take out and looking at her watch when I said I would be eating inside. I was put off by the inconsiderate attitude immediately, but decided to stay. I have worked in the restaurant industry for years (now I work in law), so I understand how difficult it can be and how, by the end of the day, you just want to be done. However, I still treated customers with respect and courtesy - as it was my job to do so. My food was ready within 7 mins - and the same cashier screamed my order - despite the fact that I was one of two people in the place. Then, not even 5 mins into my meal, another worker started to mop the place around me. The smell of cleaning chemicals instantly made me nauseous and I couldn't finish my food. I had to leave without enjoying a full meal. I was very very very disappointed and I vowed never to eat here again - which is sad because I did like the place at one point. After a long work day, all I wanted was to enjoy a nice meal for myself and I got exactly the opposite. I was treated very poorly and my food was rushed. I will never eat here again and I don't recommend it to others. read more

A nice cafe for quick bite of some Thailand style cuisines. Pad Thai was a bit salty, make sure you grab a cup of water near the door. read more

I love this restaurant is very Thai food love thai I order 7-8 meals just 4of us omg is so good Noodle soup , feeling I am in Thailand

I always get the tom yum noodle soup with either seafood or pork and ask for mild and its perfection. Used to also have the basil fried rice or pad Thai with shrimp. Love this place. Simple quick and chill. No frills. Just consistently good food. read more

One of our favorite Pad Thai restaurants. The spring rolls are also great. Good prices.

I got beef with broccoli. The sauce was super thin and not very flavorful. The beef was stringy and had a weird texture. There also wasn't much food in the takeout box. The pad Thai was ok but for the portions and the price I would not return. read more

I made an order with them on Uber eats and after almost 20 mins they cancelled my order! If you can't deliver then don't offer it as an option. read more

Consistently some of the best Thai food in Boston. Pad Thai Cafe is always a good choice in the area.

Awesome Pad Thai! It was ready super fast and it was absolutely DELICIOUS. Definitely going back, often. The portions are huge and it's super affordable. Staff was efficient and friendly and the place was clean. read more

Best thai restaurant in Boston since I came here in fall 2015 (the old PadThai Cafe)!!! Now they just opened at a new smaller place near Berklee but I still definitely come here almost everyday. I really love their Indonesian Fried Rice (it comes with crispy chicken), Crispy Chicken Basil (it is spicy but if you don't like spicy, you can ask it for less), Pad See You, and Crispy Pork Prik King Fried Rice. All of them are my favorite ones! read more

Terrible experience food with delivery! Ordered takeout and work at a near by hospital. Delivery driver was lost called the restaurant and they lied and told me he was 10 mins out when he told me he had arrived. Received my food, not what I had ordered, they left my rice when I called them I was informed the manager wasn't around. Asked for a refund the lady on the phone told me no refund, when asked if they can deliver the rice I paid for she hung up the phone and refused to pick up when I called. Nurses at the hospital heard everything that occurred on the phone and was disgusted, they didn't even eat their meal because of how upset they were, they attempted to also call on my behalf but the restaurant refused to pickup! read more

Came here for weekday lunch. Got crispy pork stir fried in basil over rice. Solid. Will be back.

I love this place! Very good food for a fair price. Also, the workers are so kind! Definitely a place where I feel good about spending money at. Also, the wait time isn't that long at all. Try the curry! The Panang is my favorite. Also the Thai iced tea is delicious :) read more

Looove the Duck Pad Thai noodles here! Service is decent, staff is friendly, place is fairly clean.

We ordered the yellow curry and it had just rice with veggies dumped on top. The gravy was hard to find and the taste was very average. This was ordered through Uber eats. Pretty disappointing read more

Me and my girl used to order religiously. But the customer service has become so terrible it's insane. These guys just don't care if they lose a customer. Website is definitely not accurate time-wise. I never write reviews but my most recent experience was so bad I just had to. I waited 2 hours for my food and the customer service person is very very rude. She will say the same thing over and over just to tell you off and then hang up on you. read more

Worst customer service and online delivery restaurant. I have never written a review for any place but after so much bad experiences with this restaurant, I've decided to share my thoughts. I used to order from Pad Thai Cafe every week because their food is pretty good, however, the people are RUDE! I've had my orders delayed for 30 mins, 1 hour, 2 hours for several times. When I call to ask about the order, they said just wait 30 more mins and you cannot cancel your order (even though it sounds like they haven't started making). Then after 1 MORE HOUR, NO FOOD, I called again and was basically yelled at by them saying that they just called the driver so I have to wait for ANOTHER 30 mins. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF FROM TROUBLE AND STARVED STOMACH. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. read more

Authentic Thai restaurant with affordable pricing. Customer service here is great too. I recommend this place.

This is one of the only restaurants I go to in Boston - despite there being so many other options, I find myself drawn back to this place again and again. I try to get something different every time and am never disappointed. One of my favs is the chili lime salmon, a euphoric experience to eat albeit VERY spicy. Such a good place to sit for a while and catch up with friends or get takeout and picnic on the esplanade read more

My roommate and I got a tofu pad thai, shrimp pad thai, scallion pancake, and veggie dumplings. I liked the tofu pad thai, nothing special but the tofu was good. My roommate was upset that there were only 2 pieces of shrimp in her pad thai and the rest was just rice noodles. We both really liked the scallion pancakes. Unfortunately, there was a mix up and we were given pork dumplings instead of veggie dumplings. This was a big issue as I am vegetarian and my roommate is halal. We had to throw them out. Called the restaurant the next day, and was very harshly told it was not their issue, but ubereats. (we ordered through uber eats). So, we brought the issue there and eventually got a refund for the dumplings. Alright food, nothing special though. read more

It's amazing how a small kitchen could cook amazing dishes with such a variety - really great taste and not too sweet like many other Thai restaurants in the area. read more

Super solid and quick, great if you're hungry and don't have a large amount of money. Affordable good food, great service!

I had the tom yum noodle soup because it was a cold day out. You need to go to the counter to pick up your own order when called, but the price point was just right for work day lunches. The order came out fast and the taste was spot on with the right amount of spiciness. The seats that are not at the corners of the restaurants could feel the gust of cold breeze coming in through the entrance every time someone enters or leaves, which is a negative in the dining experience during the cold days. All in all the cold breeze from the door was the only downside, would definitely revisit frequently. read more

This place used to be great with the previous owners when they were on Boylston, I used to say it was the best pad Thai but the truth is that their quality and menu have gone down. Every time I order pad Thai it comes out burnt (especially if, but not limited to when i order a country pad Thai), not sure why the kitchen is always full of smoke and the food tastes like the burnt smoke. Never before would they ever burn a pad Thai with their old owners. Also very disappointing they changed their natural smoothies with tapioca which used to be super popular...now they use a weird cream or milk base and it is super sugary and syrupy in the worst way. read more
