Food here is liking kissing your sisters friend goodbye. It's fine - but it's never going to get hot and heavy or something you get excited about .... First off, all the apps were fine but there was not enough sauce. It was like a torture chamber experience trying to stretch out the tiny bit they give you. We ordered the chicken skewers which were huge and tasty and came with enough sauce for exactly one. We had four. WTF? The pineapple salad has zero taste - zero. Skip it. That was the only disappointment However - the food was adequate. Service was strange bc we were the only ones there and we had to go to the counter to pay. Ambience? For real? Also a zero. They could serve any food there and the vibe wouldn't change one bit - but if you are in the area - this place is "fine." I am sure all the people in scrubs who support this place love it bc they are hard working medical types. read more

This was not our first time dining at this restaurant. We have visited before and always enjoyed the food. Unfortunately, during our most recent visit, we experienced something extremely disturbing involving our 18-month-old child. From the moment we arrived, the server appeared visibly irritated and was openly complaining about work pressure and staffing issues. We understood that restaurants can be understaffed and stressful, so we initially tried to be patient and respectful. However, the situation became unacceptable when our infant child was seated in a high chair. The server brought plastic wrap, duct tape, and scissors toward the table and attempted to "wrap" the high chair area while saying that "kids make a mess." When I asked what she was doing, her behavior and comments felt completely inappropriate, offensive, and deeply upsetting. After that, the server repeatedly returned to our table with what we felt was hostile and abusive behavior toward our child and family. Even though we had already ordered nearly $200 worth of food, we chose to leave because no parent should ever feel their child is being mistreated. Children cannot always speak for themselves, especially infants and toddlers, and they deserve to be treated with kindness, patience, and dignity everywhere they go. I strongly encourage families and parents to think carefully before supporting businesses where children are not treated respectfully. This experience was heartbreaking for our family, and I hope the restaurant takes this matter seriously and ensures no other child or family experiences something similar again. read more

We ordered take out from Pineapple Thai Cuisine by Star Market for dinner. When they say their Chicken Satay for 3 large pieces of grilled chicken on bamboo skewer were large, they weren't kidding. These were large meaty pieces, tender and tasty. Just be a little careful, because they're so thick, one of our pieces were a bit raw in the center. The Thai Fried Rice and Pad Thai (chicken) were both well portioned, filling out the take out containers, and were savory and not too sweet. read more

Had lunch here on a quiet weekday afternoon. It is a small cozy restaurant. Thai iced coffee was very good. Crab rangoon and Curry Veggie Puff were delicious. Their Thai fried rice was very average, there was barely any flavor to it and the veggies added were a bit too raw for our liking. The pad-ki-mo was also meh, lacking flavor and seasoning. The server was very friendly and the restaurant and bathroom were very clean. Ample parking available. read more

Pineapple Thai cuisine in Chestnut Hill is a very unassuming but amazing Thai restaurant. I recently ordered takeout food there when I was looking for Thai restaurants in the area and had no idea there was a Thai place in the Chestnut Hill shops area. The online order system was easy although I wish they had it so you could scroll through the entire menu rather than have to click each individual category and have to go back and forth (very minor criticism). I got the pork pad see ew and chicken pad prik khing which was something new that I had never heard of. The photo looked amazing with string beans and spices. When I picked up my order it was ready in a few minutes after my arrival and was piping hot. The pad prik khing came with rice and it was one of the best foods I have ever had. There were plenty of string beans with bell pepper and chicken and I got regular spicy which was a good amount of heat. The sauce was amazing and I can't even explain how good it was. I highly recommend this dish and it also came with a side of white rice which helped tone down the spice. The pad see ew was equally as amazing even though I have had this dish before at other places. So flavorful, and you can really taste a good smoky flavor from how it was cooked. The chinese broccoli was crunchy, the noodles were nice and soft and had the perfect amount of sauce. This place was so good! It's honestly one of the best if not the best Thai food I have had in Boston/the Boston area. The portions were good but most importantly the flavor was incredible. If I am in the area again I will for sure be coming back. Side note: I did not dine in but the restaurant is very nice and clean. read more

A clean, small restaurant with quick service and quality meals. I stopped in for a quick bite, ordering the chicken pad see ew which came out fast and piping hot. The dish was very flavorful and the chicken was moist! read more

I did take out and got spring rolls, pineapple friend rice, scallion pancakes, tom yum soup and pad Thai. I loved every meal! My favorite was the pad Thai and pineapple fried rice. The delivery was fast and happy with the service. I would order from here again! read more

I would say this is my go to take out Thai spot! The service is super quick and easy. And their dishes are always pretty solid. My favorite is their Kuo Kai with tofu. Love how it's over a bed of lettuce and the overall flavor is super delicious. I have eaten in there a few times and I love the quick casual vibes. A great spot to eat out in the chestnut hill area! read more

Fast & attentive service. About 15 tables average decor. We order Shumai as an appetizer - tasty but not much dipping sauce. My lady had Pad Thai Crispy Chicken which was good/tasty but a little lite on sauce. Sweet sauce on side was a nice compliment to the chicken. I had the Green Avocado Curry (w/chicken) which was very good. Just the right-sized portion. Price is a bit more expensive that other area Thai restaurants and normally we would order hot tea, but at $5 per cup, we found that a bit outrageous. Would go back for the food. read more

Three stars because the waitress was super nice despite the restaurant being very understaffed. Wait for food was kind of long but understandable. Thai iced tea was way sweeter than normal, pad Thai was dry and had very little chicken. read more

All I can say is go somewhere else- here is the response I received from the owner after I posted my honest review stating the food is excellent, and that I have been a customer for years, but the wait times of sometimes over 2 hours is not justifiable for take out. The owner told me he did not need my business and called me a loser. Is this who you went to give your business to? Not me. read more

Excellent service - they always provide lots of sauces and get orders out quickly. The banana egg rolls are especially delicious. I've found the medium spice level is perfect for me - enough to get my scalp sweating, not so hot that I can't taste the other flavors. read more

Reporting in a quick Sunday afternoon lunch. Only two parties counting us, so food was naturally quick. Rolls--not the strongest play. Fine, but i wonder if defrosted. Tom yum soup-- a large pleasantly sweet, sour and spicy bowl shared among three Eggplant, peppers (with tofu)-- a strong winner. If you're an eggplant fan, get it, do it, eat it. Can't speak to the rest.... we were eating light. And... it's my second time year, previously years back... but I recall the same country music station playing... unexpected. read more

I have eaten at the place and have ordered take out before, and I think that they give you a good amount of food regardless! The quality is solid and I have always had a good experience with them. The service there is also good and they're nice whenever I went to pick up or dine in! The place is also cozy and small but there still is a lot of space at the restaurant to eat (tables/chairs). If you're in the area or near the area for delivery, I would try this place out! read more

Appetizer sample and crispy chicken pad Tia was great. Counter person was polite and curious. Small but nice dinning area

Great place for Thai food! I ordered takeout for dinner and it was nicely packaged for pickup! I ordered the pineapple curry, crispy wings, Thai tea, and crispy chicken pad Thai. The pineapple curry was amazing, probably one of the best curries I have ever ordered! Yes, I like pineapple on my pizza as well! The wings were crispy and mild in flavor. The pad Thai was just ok in my opinion. The Thai tea was great as well, the perfect amount of sweetness, strong thai tea flavor and creamy! read more

My family and I have eaten here and ordered from here for several years. The food is incredibly fresh. Everything we have ever eaten has been great. The fried rices and noodles are all great. I love that the vegetables are never over cooked, nor is their shrimp in any of the dishes we have ever ordered. My kids love the gyoza and shumai. read more

This is our go-to Thai takeout restaurant. Fan favorites are the vegetable rolls appetizer (which can sometimes sell out quick), Pad Thai and Drunken Noodle. Just a few tables available for dining in, but the atmosphere and decor are simple and lovely. The staff is always friendly and gets our order made quickly for takeout. read more

My mother just had the most disgusting experience at this restaurant. My mother went in and placed an order and was told that her order would be ready within half an hour. She told the woman behind the counter that she wouldn't be able to wait for more than half an hour and just made sure that it would actually be ready. After the woman confirmed my mother placed her order and paid. As she waited for her order, the owner was at a table, putting together a different catering order. After 30 minutes, she went up to the counter and asked if her order was ready at which time the woman behind the counter said no. She pointed to the owner and suggested that my mother ask him. My mother went over to the owner and asked if her order was ready. The owner turned to her and yelled that he was busy and continued to package up the other order. She then calmly said to him that she had placed an order 30 minutes ago and was told that her order would be ready on time. The owner turned around and screamed f*ck you at her. He said he knew she was Russian and he didn't want to serve her and demanded that the woman behind the counter, give her her money back. This kind of cruelty and xenophobia should not be tolerated in our area and it's disgusting that this man is allowed to have this establishment. read more

Like the food and service, will re-visit if be around next time. We ordered choo chee cury with beef, and pad thai with seafood (extra egg & super spicy). The flavors embedded in the pad thai is just perfectly balanced. read more

I stopped here on my lunch break the other day and ordered the Tom Kha Gai and steamed veggies. The restaurant was full and there was only one woman working the dining room but she was super friendly and made my experience that much better. The food did take some time and I noticed another table losing their patience, but there is a sign behind the register stating that they make fresh made to order from scratch food in their kitchen and it does take some time while also thanking customers for their patience so this wasn't an issue for me especially paired with the fact that there was only one server. The Tom Kha Gai was absolutely delicious. I only wish there was an added element of heat to it but I took care of that by asking for some chili on the side on my following visit the very next day. That's how good it was -- I came two days in a row upon my first visit and ordered the same thing. On my second visit I ordered the Som Tum which was absolutely delicious as well. When I returned the same server (there alone again) recognized me and asked how I liked everything the day before. I noticed other table stopping to commend our server on how amazing everything tasted.Truly out of this world service and incredible food. I will absolutely be returning again and I can't wait to become a regular customer. Delicious, gorgeous food. read more

They seem to do a lot of takeout. We dined in and enjoyed the food. Curry was spot on. The decor could be a little warmer, the lighting *not so bright*, but for a half hour to kill while we waited to pick up our son from a school event, this was a nice find. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. I've ordered from this place before specifically the pineapple curry and enjoyed it. After eating most of it this time around I found maggots inside. WILL NEVER AGAIN ORDER FROM HERE! There are so many better places to go instead. Beware!! read more

Slow and unfriendly- be prepared to wait. Food is fair - there are so many good Thai places in this area. Definitely go elsewhere

The owner was lovely and I took her recommendation right away! She said it wasn't on the menu, but very very delicious! She wasn't wrong, the pork barbecue was perfect all around to me. There was 3 slices of it with vegetables and rice. She even went as far as showing me how to eat the dish too. (I'm Asian, this isn't my first rodeo) There is a dip that comes with it. The best park of the pork was that it was sweetened just right and it was tender as well. I can eat it all day! My cousin ordered some kind of soup, but the coconut broth was so sweet, we thought it was his dessert. Definitely coming back for my pork bbq when I'm in the area. The only issue I had was that the check came a bit too fast (I have a rule to stop eating once it arrives), so this killed my mood a bit. read more

After waiting for 40 mins for the 2 appetizers, we saw a MOUSE running in the restaurant. The waiting was too long so we cancelled the 2 main dishes we ordered. Super disappointing and won't come back. Was told to remove my review- No, I won't. The fact is we didn't received the service we deserved and we wasted an hour waiting. A mouse is not acceptable, no matter how busy you were. Plus I think you spent too much time on takeout orders than dine-ins. I did not make up anything, so I don't know why I should do what you told me. You need to EARN the good reviews, not by yelling people to take down the bad reviews. read more

We would like to give the restaurant a 5 stars if we were told upfront that the fried icecream was not a free promoted item. We were just told they have a new dessert and would like to offer us at the end of the meal. We were not being asked how many orders we would like to try so we assumed we will get one because it sounds they were promoting that item for customers to try. Too sad that they were actually charging us $13 for "2 orders." We feel pretty uncomfortable with how they "purposely" promote that dessert by that way in order to sell more to the customers. Other than that, their food is great. read more

I have come here two times for dinner. The service is nice and pretty fast. The food is good and the service is friendly. The atmosphere is nice and casual, so you can chat or do some phone or laptop browsing and no one will bother or rush you. read more

Best Thai food in the area without a question. Delicious pad Thai, the real telltale of any Thai restaurant.

Excellent Thai food! Especially green curry! Best I've had in a long while!! Pineapple rice is very good too!

A serendipitous find, after rock climbing in Hammond Pond in Chestnut Hill, MA. We were greeted by a warm friendly face. The service was courteous and attentive. They make everything from scratch and NO Msg! The servings were huge. Prices were reasonable. We will definitely be back to test out more of the menu. See you next time! read more

Continues to be delicious and amazing!! I've eaten a lot of thai food and their kapow chicken is is one of my absolute favorites!!! Its at the top of the list for the area!!

The food was excellent . I had the masaman curry and loved it. my significant other had the seafood soup and it was very good. Not overly salted but a light broth which is how we both like it. Friendly Thai lady who seemed to be the owner was our waitress .. Small very casual atmosphere . She was the only one tending to customers but did it with a smile on her face. read more

I can see why ppl say the service here is horrible. I asked for thai tea with ice on the side and that's what I get. I asked why I was given half a cup and the lady says once you pour it in the ice cup you get a full cup. Who does that??? I had nothing else to say. Gave them another chance after a bad experience. Never going back. Will search for another Thai restaurant.... read more

I could tell by the smell that it would not be good. J paid $30.00 for garbage. The curry chicken puffs had absolutely no curry or chicken in them. Only had mashed potatoes in them. The fried chicken smelled bad, was dried out and old. The duck pad thai was just okay. I would not recommend this restaurant at all. read more

Don't buy a gift card to this place! I bought my son a $50 gift card for Christmas and he has tried unsuccessfully to use it multiple times. First they told him they don't take gift cards for online orders, but tonight they told him they don't take gift cards at all! If they don't take gift cards, why did they sell me one? Guess I'll have to take this up with my credit card company. Very disappointing...he works in the area, but now he feels like he doesn't even want to do business with them at all. Epic fail. read more
