First time trying this place out. Food was a solid 9/10. My girlfriend is picky so she just got rice and chicken but she still enjoyed every single bite! I got the Masaman Duck and and everything about it was phenomenal other than the fact that it was fried :/. The crispy bits had a weird aftertaste but everythung on the plate was amazing. Especially the curry sauce that came with it. Our waitress, Ashley was enthusiastic, very friendly, and most importantly, brutally honest. She steered us away from the not so good food and lead us towards some of the better options on the menu. All in all, tonight was a fantastic experience and we will definitely return!!! read more

Good food, great outdoor dining area, and BYOB I is a nice touch. This restaurant is a great change of pace for me. read more

Always have a great time. Great service and fresh food. Very good vegan options and kind servers. Tom Yum (hold the shrimp), any curry with brown rice and tofu, and gado gado salad are some of my favorites. The Veggie Thaifongo special in Summer is a real treat too! read more

The food, service, and atmosphere are amazing. The menu is exciting and had a great deal of variety. I highly recommend to anyone that like Thai or Asian fusion. read more

Yummy vegan options! Kind and hard working staff. Food has always been great in my experience. Thank you guys so much

This is a GREAT little Indonesian restaurant. Everything is made fresh, so they are happy to make anything on their menu to your preference (chicken instead of fish, vegetarian, etc.) And, you can get anything mild, medium or hot. The decor and size of the dining room makes for a warm, cozy atmosphere. Although they have a few larger tables, it's best suited for party's of 4 or less - perfect for a couples night out. The owners are very friendly and have come around - every time I've been there - to be sure you are happy with everything. The wait staff is also very friendly and helpful. FYI...it's BYO. CHECK THEM OUT!!!! read more

Fantastic Asian Fusion restaurant. One of the managers at Lowes had recommended this store after we had requested a good asian restaurant for dinner. This is a BYOB. I had ordered their chicken special and the wife went with one of their shrimp which were both perfectly cooked. shrimp were large and juicy unlike the ones we get at other places. Server and staff were friendly and had catered to our spice requirements. For Indian guys: order extra spicy or ask the server to get the extra-hot spice on the side. Mild is really mild. Only -ive thing: Parking. I had parked in the seedy looking conveinence stores parking (right across the street) and i was asked to move to a different darker lot (also across the street). So thats not good esp in the winters. read more

The Pandan Room is the best little restaurant in Hackettstown by far. Not only is the food amazing and unique, but the servers are superb and the atmosphere is ethnic and fun. My favorite experience was a warm spring dinner spent on the outdoor patio. (Be sure to make reservations!) My friend and I felt like we were at one of those little trendy patio oasis in NYC, not in Hackettstown. read more

Pandan Room Best food ever!! NYC menu, Hackettstown prices. Never had a bad meal. Owners very friendly, friendly staff. BYOB a plus. read more

Lovely dining in or take out experience! The food is tasty and also accommodating to my gluten-free diet. I enjoy each experience at Pandan Room! read more

Really great Dim Sum. The Service was excellent. Three of us arrived 1:30 on Saturday. Staff made us feel very welcome. The only place locally to find Indonesian food...plus they offer cooking classes, which my daughter and I are planning to sign up for when our schedule allows. read more

Our favorite place! The staff and Chef Jay do a wonderful job at preparing delicious food and keeping customers happy. Our favorite dishes include balinese curry, bang bang chicken, lobster tom yum and the spin art appetizer. Dim sum on the weekends is always fun and we love the cooking classes! read more

Pandan Room - Thai Near Me - Hackettstown, New Jersey

See all

Pure deliciousness. Kids m by us great. Lots of choices for the little ones. You cannot go and not order the corn fritters. They are amazing. My favorites include the Bang Bang Chicken, any of the curries, any of the soups, and the peanut butter spring rolls for dessert. Last night we had the flan and loved it. My kids loved the Java Chocolate soufflé. You must try Pandan Room if you haven't already. read more

The traditional dishes are good, but the dim sum dishes are mediocre. They are mostly overpriced and usually just lukewarm.

I've never been disappointed in a visit to Pandan! It's the perfect choice no matter the event; dinners (date night, friends gathering) & weekend brunch (dim sum). BYOB. Fresh ingredients bring delicious flavor to every dish. There is a nice outdoor patio for warm afternoons and evenings. The staff is well versed in the menu so ask questions if you have them the menu is large so it can feel overwhelming if you've never been before. read more

Go here all the time. Have never been disappointed with anything I have ordered but have to say once I landed on the pad Kai mau I don't think I've gotten anything different since. It is my Goto dish. Great indoor and nice outdoor. read more

Outstanding authentic Thai food. Really great menu and most of the waiters are excellent. They need to train some of the junior members, but it is in a college town so I am sure good help can be a challenge. read more

Pandan Room - great decor - Thai Near Me - Hackettstown, New Jersey

First, the service was great! The waitress was amazing, knowledgeable and accommodating. The drinks were good. Wasn't aware it was byob. I believe her name was "Robin."The food was horrible, Thai wings, pad thai and Thai fried rice. Rice was over cooked , including the pad Thai noodles. Won't be returning . read more

Pandan Room is amazing. Great food, locally sourced, unforgettable flavor. Friendly owners. Cozy, romantic place.

Went there this past Saturday night .. place was different but with a warm cozy feel ... food was ok .. service was great ... however as we paid the bill I noticed a roach on the floor .. it scattered and went towards the wall .. I wasn't looking for a free meal .. the waitress did apologize.. went as far as telling the manager... and this is where the problem set in ... Manager never came to speak to us and offer their apology .. manager looked our way and decided the matter was not important... you have roaches in your establishment.. .. a simple thank you for letting you know and an apology from management and not the staff would have been appreciated... I hesitated for a moment and thought .. let me ask to speak to management... but then quickly realized it was simply not worth my time and energy.... the food we took to go was left in the garbage.. not going there again .. Thank You Management / read more

Myast few experiences have been much better than those in the past - perhaps there was a change in kitchen staff. Wait staff has always been pleasant and accommodating. I'm glad to see things are back to the way I remember them. Pandan Room is back on my go-to list - if you're looking for great Thai - youve found your happy place. read more

This restaurant stole $0.18 from me because I paid in cash? They said they round up on cash payments. Pretty fucking stupid tbh. However, I don't give stars for service and idiotic business practices. The food was great. The curry ketan and roti canai were solid. Probably unlikely to go back since they swindle cash users but the food is great. read more

This place is an absolute gem. The food is delicious and the waitstaff is tops. Dim Sum on the weekends is an added treat when you don't want to order off the menu. By far our most favorite place to eat. read more

I have been going to the Pandan Room ever since it opened. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting- they did a great deal with that small space and have finally expanded. One thing that stands out is how FRESH everything is. We always order an entree salad as an appetizer for the table and love the fresh crisp veggies and homemade salad dressing (at least I think it is!). They use a lot of great flavors and herbs in their dishes as well. Lots of variety (most people don't know what to get) but you can be assured it will be great! read more

Normally I try to write thoughtful, complete and objective reviews but I can't for the Pandan Room just go here and eat! The food is great, the staff is great, and did I mention the food is great! This place is a true gem. read more

I love this place! It is my third trip there for lunch. I go there each time amazed how good it is! Sate Combo, my favorite. No, the red curry. No, the Maasaman curry. Tried the Chrysanthemum tea, loved it. So so so good! read more

I never write reviews but today's experience blew my mind! Never did I recive customer service that was this bad. Keep in mind me and my husband are ( now "were") regulars at Pandna Room. We love Thai food, and usually we enjoyed their food. We called in before hand and reserved a table for 4. We show up at 5:00pm and we were seated but we asked to be seated at a different table that we perfered more (restaurant was still empty) We were having a good time with our friends. Our waiter was doing the bare minimum and at the end our waiter brought out the check. A random waiter ( tall, blonde, tattoos over his head) RUNS up to us doesnt make eye contact, taps at our bill and said "is it ready, whats up with that?" We got our money out right away. Than he returned saying " I need you guys to leave right now, you left under 18% tip and the owner told you guys to leave." We left over 10% since the service wasnt the greatest. We stood up in shock to leave, and on our way out and the blonde waiter and someone else shouted out "never come back". We sure won't be coming back. Theres no reason for anyone to receive this bad service. read more

I like Thai food. This is nicely done. Friendly place. Busy. Everything fresh and invitong

Went out with 5 of my girlfriends which I thought was going to be a peaceful dinner. The waitress became very defensive that one of my friends wanted to change her jasmine rice to noodles. The waitresss said "I already put in your order!!!... and she was pissed. My friend simply said I tried to get your attention but I couldn't. Then the waitress started saying "you are negative, I am not waiting on you,", I am too positive for this shit!. Mind you the order was just given to the kitchen. I thought , omg, this waitress is refusing to serve one of my friends. Then the waitress starting serving soup and dropped some of the soup near my friend who said " oops you almost dropped that on me. Well by the end of the meal the waitress came over and started to apologize and then picked a fight with the whole table accusing us of letting my friend verbally abuse her. Wow!!!... then the waitress was asked to stop talking to us which enraged her and she was screaming throughout the restaurant and started calling my friend " butch"... it was awful!!!.. she literally ruined our dinner and could not accept the fact that her poor attitude to my friend was the cause of the fight. I will never go to this restaurant again and plan on calling the owner today. Very uncomfortable and very unprofessional environment. Won't go back to eat inside. read more

I like to try new Thai restaurants everywhere I go... with that being said, Pandan Room is still my favorite. The food is amazing. Thai Wings are a must!!! BYOB! If you can get there for Weekday Lunches you'll eat a gigantic meal for under 10 dollars. read more

Haven't been back for a long time, but boy was my dish amazing. Wish the kids menu was a little better so next time I will just go with adults. read more

Our favorite place to eat. Love everything we get here from the menu and weekend dim sum is always good too. Friendly staff, and nice atmosphere. read more

WHat a little hidden gem! Love Thai and didn't know there was great little place in Hackettstown. Great fresh food. My 7&8 year old even loved it. Sat/Sun they have dim sum, but get there early! read more

Good food. Good service. I love the crab cake curry. Comfortable atmosphere. Haven't been disappointed yet.

Great little place for a small town. Only a dozen tables or so with a few outside on the patio. I'm not a big spicy food eater so I went with the Mongolian beef. Amazing. Friendly waitress and fast service. Definitely recommend. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience here. Servers are great and knowledgeable and the owner comes out to say high. Very personable adventure! Food is wonderful especially if you're just s bit knowledgeable! read more

I've been going to Pandan Room for many years now....both dining in and for take out. Their food is to-die-for...never disappointed. When you dine in, the service is great...everyone is always very attentive and very friendly. Can't say enough great things about the Pandan Room! read more

This place was AMAZING! Nothing bad to say at all - the waitresses were all so sweet, the chef even waived out to us from the kitchen, and the food, the BEST part. I have never experienced such great Thai food at SUCH a great price. My boyfriend and I ate all we could, apps, drinks, entrees and left with a $50.00 tab with leftover food for the next days lunch! I recommend to definitely put this on your bucket list of restaurants. outdoor and indoor seats available too! :) read more

I had my 28th birthday dinner party here in the winter and the staff was very accommodating from originally reserving for 15 to 8 on the actual day. The food is delicious and so well-presented. The service is professional. BYOB! I love the owner; he's such a nice and genuine person who cares about the local community and his customers! read more
