Oh, so that was the owner who served us! The guy was super cool and friendly and greeted me as if…read morehe knew me because 2 other people in my party were already seated and I was about 20 minutes later than them, so when I walked into the restaurant, he said "So you're the imaginary friend!" without me having to explain anything. He was very warm and inviting and also acted as our waiter the whole night, so I had no idea he was also the owner. Other than the great service, the decor was warm and relaxing, and I had a great meal even though I was dining with two people I had never met before. I credit the decor and the atmosphere for putting us all at ease and making that possible. And the food was great too! I had the Tom Yum Soup and it was nice and creamy and full of flavor, and I tried someone else's beef dish which was great, and the chicken dish was ok. I was dining with a woman from China and she gushed about the rice. As soon as it was put on the table she said she could smell how wonderful it was, and explained that she's been travelling for the last six months outside of China, and this is the first time she's had "proper" rice since she left home. The fried banana/ice cream dessert was heavenly as well. Squishy warm banana with cold delicious ice cream makes people happy.

The decor is very cool, hip and funky. The staff is also very friendly and are happy to translate everything into English for us. As far as the food: the tom ka soup is a MUST. It's so good and has so much flavor. Love all the mushrooms and meat in it. The pad Thai is incredible. From the sour yet nutty taste, to the fresh hot noodles. It's a must get! We have tried other things on the menu and quickly realized that anything and everything you order here is going to be excellent.

I discovered Bird through a Reddit thread and while I was curious to try, I didn't really bother…read moretrying to find out where it was... but it worked out because my wife and I were wandering around the neighborhood and happened to stumble upon Bird when we were hungry! Here's what we ordered: 82 - Pad Ka Ki Maul (Spicy fried rice w/ chicken fillet, garlic, basil, chili peppers): If you love big, bold flavors and some heat, this is it. I am salivating just thinking about eating this right now! And they do not skimp on the chicken either. So flavorful! I wish they picked the basil leaves off though rather than tossing in the whole sprig. 83 - Drunken Noodle: Also known as Pad Kee Mao. Pretty much the same flavors as the previously mentioned dish, but with noodles instead. Typically this dish is served with big flat noodles, but they use pad thai type noodles instead which I was a little skeptical of at first. But after my first bite, my initial worries were gone. Again, big flavors and wok hei. 88 - Som Tam: Your typical papaya salad, but absolutely swimming in "dressing/sauce" which I love! It's definitely on the sweeter side of things though which my wife personally didn't care for, but I thought it was great. 85 - Spicy tom yum noodle soup with chicken: Not really the type of tom yum noodles I'm used to at home, but still good. But definitely my least favorite thing I've ordered here, but again, still pretty good but I'd order something else. Anyway, if Bird was back home, I would absolutely consider this a go-to type of spot. If you love Thai food and/or want something comforting, Bird is definitely a great choice. The restaurant feels lively and the service was fast and friendly!

Often times there is a line leading outside to get a table due to the popularity of Bird Thais. The service is friendly and prompt. I've tried a variety of dishes on the menu but of course the classic Pad Thai is one of my top choices. Food is fresh and tasty. This time I tried the Isaan Menu which was a nice collection of spare rib appetizer, Tom Yam Kai soup, and a spicy beef salad. I really enjoyed the flavors of this dish. It is a very busy restaurant but there's just enough space to enjoy your meal without feeling like you are on top of the next table. Bird Thais is a very popular restaurant for a good reason.

What a lucky find. Family run Thai perfection (I hate using that word, but...). I usually judge a…read morenew to me restaurant by the soup - if they take care in making the soup, everything else is usually good. My Thai soup tonight was tied for best ever with a mushroom soup I had years ago in Canada - one of those "oh my" moments. The shrimp curry was light and well balanced, the noodle dish flavorful and delicate, fried basil over beef tender and exotic. Dessert - simple warm bananas with thick sweet coconut sauce! So if you find yourself in Amsterdam, enjoy Thai cuisine, and are just a bit adventurous, you owe it to yourself to sup at Na Siam.

It's a small but cozy restaurant, with a few tables outside. The menu is very extensive, with more than sixty different options. I had a little trouble looking around for what I wanted to eat. American Thai restaurants sort items by noodle dishes, rice dishes, etc. and then you add your protein (pork, chicken, beef). But Phutakun separates by pork, chicken, and beef dishes. I don't think I was able to find pad see ew, one of my favorites. There were also prawn, squid, and fish dishes that I never seen before! We got a chicken dish that had green onions, side of rice, and a noodle dish that looked like ramen. Everything was a little different from what I was used to, but it was super delicious. Servings were on the smaller side, but the quality was there. Loved the flavor of the stir fry chicken, and the noodles were excellent. Service was wonderful, the man helping us was pleasant and very helpful. I appreciated his willingness to bring us cold glasses of water, something other restaurants in Amsterdam make difficult.

We were walking towards another restaurant during a rainy afternoon and suddenly we passed by this hidden gem that looked super cozy and also the food looked perfect for the occasion, by that I mean steaming hot. We didn't think twice and quickly asked if there was room for two, which we ran with lucky bc the place is very small but two people were just paying to leave. We were promptly sat and attended. The food came out fast, steaming hot, generous portions. The chicken curry had an addictive ingredient bc it didn't matter that it was spicy I couldn't stop eating it! The vegetables were perfectly tender and tasty. The meat was juicy and cut into perfect bite chunks. Im not exaggerating when I say I had the most delicious chicken curry I've ever had in my life. My husband had the beef with garlic and white pepper which is onions. Also incredibly good. Both dishes came with a side of rice. At the end we were stuffed and super happy! We came back twice before leaving Amsterdam!

I personally liked the chicken lo mein. It definitely shined over the mall Chinese food I had a few weeks ago. The Thai was my second favorite and it was a second favorite for the table as well.
