    Chicken coconut soup (inedible)

    Really unfortunate I'm giving a bad review for this place that I used to love many years ago when it was actually run by Thai people. New ownership took over and it's absolutely horrible. Not sure why Chinese people are now running a Thai restaurant and twisting the dishes into more Chinese-inspired dishes. The overall quality of food has gone downhill tremendously since and the place is not being up-kept either as the interior is grungy looking and having to sit on flat ripped cushion seats is a red flag alone. Food: The spring rolls here are definitely not Thai spring rolls anymore but rather the big Chinese spring rolls that are flavorless. The authentic Thai ones (that this place used to have) are much smaller and tastier. Also, I ordered the chicken coconut soup which was a big mistake as it was inedible. Im not picky and have never had any issues at restaurants but this soup was so bad that I could not eat it and had to send it back and got refunded by the nice lady server. It tasted like canned soup (worse actually), consistency was watery/jelly-like and flavor was awful. As soon as the soup arrived, I smelt something odd until I realized it was the soup and before tasting already knew I wouldn't like it and sure enough thats what happened. Hands down the worst soup I've ever had unfortunately. My mother is also not thrilled with anything here anymore such as the Pad See Ew dish and curry puffs that they changed as well. My family and I will not be returning sadly. If you want real Thai food that's good quality, I'd recommend to check out Thai House Restaurant in Smithtown or Sawadee in East Northport.

    And I Raan, I Raan so far away...okay maybe 80s new wave lyrics aren't the best way to start off this review, especially because I wouldn't run far away from Raan Thai. This place definitely has some decent Thai delights when it comes to their grub which is what my wife and I found out a few weeks back for takeout dinner. You see we were finishing up some errands and looking for something different to try that we could pick up to take home with us. Enter Raan Thai. Location-wise it might get overshadowed right next to Osteria Umbra and a few other storefronts, but it still holds its own space with its bright glowing blue lettering you can see from the street. Inside, there's nothing special about the decor. It's really your average tables and chairs with a little Thai flare scattered about. What's most important here is the food and after ordering it online, we showed up at the time stated and our bag of tastiness was ready and waiting. The friendly staff member handed it off to us and we were on our way. Back home, we dove into everything we got (which we knew was probably going to be two-meals worth so no judgement). We started with some Thai wonton soup which had a delicious broth and some big chicken wontons filling up that large cup. The wontons were fine, but honestly I could've just downed the broth on its own. Next up were some spring rolls which were perfectly crispy and had a great mixture of flavors between the veggies and noodles (plus the sweet chili sauce on the side was legit). After that, my wife and I split some Thai fried rice (mild heat) and that bowl of grains was fantastic. My main course was pad ki mao (drunken noodle) which I got at medium heat and it was near perfection. My wife had pad Thai which she said was good (I tried it as well), though I feel I might have had others that were a little more balanced in flavors. Besides that, the only other semi-miss were these free chicken dumplings that came with the meal for how much we spent. Not something I would've ordered as they were a little chewy, but it was worth trying for no additional cost. Oh and everything was washed down with a sweet and brightly colored Thai iced tea. Yum! Overall, Raan Thai has some serious legitimacy here with a lot of what they offer. Perhaps a few menu items slightly missed the mark, but the ones that hit were bullseyes. I'd definitely throw them into the Thai rotation in the future. And instead of trying to throw another "ran" joke out there, just insert one here in yourself and get over to Raan Thai so you can give em a shot.

    Good Thai food. The Curry Puffs and Lettuce Wrap were both excellent! I had the Panang Curry with Chicken and liked it. I decided to go with a spice level of 2 out of 5, and thought it was the right amount of spice. The restaurant has a lot of seating and service was good

    Our go to Thai place. Food is delicious and flavorful and you can specify the spice level between 1 to 5. Frequently get take out and typically order shrimp or tofu pad thai, shrimp or chicken drunken noodle, spicy green beans with tofu and green or massaman curry with chicken or tofu. Their grilled pork fried rice is very good too as well as their curry puffs and spring rolls. Gets very busy around dinner time and we sometimes have to wait for our take out up to 40 minutes.

    Has always been my favorite for thai food in Stony Brook! The thai tea is actually concentrated and has proper thai tea flavor. They have updated their menu over the last few years, but the quality is always the same. Delicious The staff are also always so pleasant and eager, radiating positive vibes

    This is one of my favorite Thai spots in Long Island. I travel 30 minutes here to eat because I think the quality and flavors are worth it. I like how their items aren't overly greasy. They have tons of flavor options. You can request spice level 1-5. I really enjoy spice 2-3 as a spice lover. Anything above that my mouth goes numb lol. They have unique radish peanut dumplings that are so fresh and tasty. Their yellow curry has sweet potatoes that complement the curry so well. I have never seen this anywhere else.

    A really quiet, intimate and unassuming restaurant, frankly in the middle of nowhere. I had heard great things about this place and I was really excited to check it out. We ordered and our drinks came out right away. Unfortunately, our food took about 20-25 minutes to come out, and the hostess apologized a lot, saying that a large take-out order had come in right when had ordered. In that communication, service was a 10/10. I got the classic chicken pad thai, with a 4/5 spice level. They apparently also do a 6/5 "extra Thai spicy," for those of you who like it extremely hot. I found 4/5 spicy, but I needed a bit more extra punch and asked for extra chili on the side. The noodles were a bit hardened (maybe it got cold?), but the flavor was nice and sweet/salty, filled with umami. This is a nice neighborhood Thai spot that I'd be interested in coming back to every once in a while.

    Solid local spot for thai food! I've been craving Thai since moving to the area a few months back. We visited Raan Thai based on reviews. The service was wonderful, simple but very cozy atmosphere, and good thai food. The dishes we tried were a bit too sweet for my taste, and compared to other Thai i've had, so I would just order differently next time. Would definitely visit again to try more of the great looking menu!

    Went in one night for dinner. Every table was taken but it was only about a five minute wait for a table. This place is very popular and once you taste their food you'll know why. Everyone was nice friendly and helpful. The ambiance is nice. It was busy, but quiet and relaxing. I tried the Thai Tea which was very different than anything I'd had before. Definitely go and try this place. Try the iced tea, the pastry puffs, and the coconut chicken soup. They are not equipped to handle large groups but they have ample parking and can support take out orders.

    Good Thai spot for noodles. Mine were a little oilier than I had hoped, but I would come again for some good Thai food. I tried the Raan Thai Noodles which included duck, bean sprouts, and scallions. It was a generous portion with lots of duck meat which was tender. Service was fast but they were a bit rushed to accommodate other parties.

The ambiance is cozy and inviting with soft lighting, beautiful decor, and just the right level of calm energy that makes it perfect for any occasion.

Everything about the experience feels thoughtful and personal, like they truly care that you're enjoying every bite. Now for the food, which is the real star of the show. Every dish at Thai House bursts with flavor and freshness. The Pad Thai is hands-down one of the best I've ever had, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness and spice. The Drunken Noodles are bold and savory, the curry dishes are rich and aromatic, and the basil fried rice is absolutely addictive. You can taste how fresh the ingredients are in every bite. Even the appetizers like the crispy spring rolls and chicken satay are perfection. The spice levels are spot-on too. You can tell them exactly how spicy you want it, and they actually get it right every time. It's clear that the chefs here care about quality and consistency, and that makes a huge difference. The drinks are also worth mentioning. From Thai iced tea to their refreshing cocktails, everything complements the meal perfectly.

First of all $17 for a dinner dish that doesn't come with fried rice or soup or eggroll? Sorry I never really put negative reviews but I feel like the hype of this place out weighs its value.
