    what a cute new Thai grocery market in Sterling! It's not a huge market, but it has your Thai essentials. tons of snacks and instant noodles. instant Thai iced tea. all the Thai sauces you could be looking for. Thai medications. Thai frozen goods. Thai homemade sausages. really, it's just a really cute Thai grocery store. but the hidden gem, is the little restaurant in the corner. you can order your meal & wait for it while you shop. currently they are offering free Thai iced tea with any $25 order placed in store. the pad Thai was ok, but the mango sticky rice was delish. the kanom Chan was yummy! nice chewy, pandas flavor, definitely try this when you go. the owner is so friendly and welcoming. highly recommend stopping by & checking this place out!

    STERLING, VA / THAI / 06-15-21 / TAKE-OUT DINNER +The pad thai tastes very traditional. Would've been better with wider rice noodles. +The crab fried rice was delicious. +The kids enjoyed the chicken satay. +I watched the chef prepare our food in the wok, and she was very professional with clean execution. Never did she touch her mask or let her ladle touch a questionable surface area on the grill. She had a bandana on, to make sure hair does not fall into the food. She also had a pair of cloth pants you can only get in Thailand, which I recognized because we have similar pairs from our travels. +The pandan sticky rice and mango dessert is a must order. +The store is very clean. -Submitted an online carry out order. Drove 20 minutes. Waited another 25 minutes, as it looked like they started cooking after we arrived inside to pick up the food. -They did not have the green chili peppers in vinegar or red chili peppers in fermented fish sauce, the sauces you find in the spice tray at other Thai food establishments. -The significant other foodie likes westernized pad thai. It wasn't spicy, salty, and sweet enough for her palette. Go figure. -The summer rolls are $8 and one of them popped, spilling all of the vegetables and shrimp/pork. Overall, the food was great! The ordering, operations, and execution could use some improvement, but I'll be back to try the other items on the menu. Best of luck to this Thai joint, and go check them out!

    Best rose tea ever . I love that it not powder and actually rose tea

    Thai chive dumplings PAPAYA SALAD Taro pastry

    I came here for the weekly Thai market and I'm so glad I did! I learned about this market from TikTok and immediately bookmarked it. The market is outdoors when it's warmer outside but for the winter, it's inside RiceBerry Market. I wasn't expecting the market to be as busy as it was! Every stall was bustling with people. Each stall was offering different food and I was so excited to try some authentic Thai food. I got the 7 piece chive dumplings and a fresh papaya salad. What I loved about this market was that most of the food is created to order. It's as fresh as it gets! The people who work here too are genuinely some of the kindest people I've ever met. Everyone was so accommodating when I told them I was vegetarian. The chive dumplings were literal perfection! The dumpling wrapper was so soft and chewy, and the chive filling was flavorful. Each bite made me want to take another one. The papaya salad was also amazing. It was made completely fresh right in front of me, and the person making it gave me so much! She even gave me a sample to taste in case I wanted it more spicy. The salad and dumplings filled my friend and I up but we couldn't leave without getting a sweet treat. We got taro pastries and I was so shocked to see that there was legit taro inside! I'm so used to taro flavored things that I realized I had never had the real deal before. The pastry was a bit dry but honestly I didn't mind it. This market is every Sunday from 10am-3:30pm, and if you're in NoVa then it's definitely worth the trip!

    Thai street food instant noodles

    It is nice to find an authentic Thai grocery store that also serves food in Sterling, VA. It's a hole in the wall. But the amount of Thai groceries is amazing. They have all the instant Thai noodles and snacks I have seen in the DMV. There are also frozen meats and all kinds of condiments and dry noodles. My husband and I ordered the crab meat fried rice and boat noodle soup. I loved the boat noodle soup which the option of beef brisket, tendon, and meatballs were given to us. The crab meat fried rice was just ok for me. The rice was soggy in my opinion. The amount of crab meat was decent. With our two dishes, we somehow scored a free drink. We wanted to Thai ice tea but they accidentally gave us the Thai coffee. Still pretty good.

    I am SOOOO HAPPY that I found this small Thai market/carryout. They make one of my favorite Thai Street food, Sakoo sai moo, steam tapioca balls with pork/peanut filling! Their pandan coconut sticky rice with mango was delicious . Got hubby the thai fried rice with chicken and shrimp with an order of spring rolls. The ladies there were so nice! I will be back again very soon!

    A first time customer to this place! Ordered delivery from the Fairfield Inn & Suites at Dulles Airport. Lunch options were great and prices were not too bad, even though you still had to pay delivery + tip. But it was worth it! Food was very tasty and flavorful! Got the seasoning right and spice level as well. Will have to try it again sometime when I am in the area again. Good stuff...

    PAD SEE-EEW

    I had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant! The Pad See Eew was delicious, and I really enjoyed the Tiger Tea drink. The staff was friendly, and what's even better is that the prices were affordable. Highly recommend!

    Great local grocery to find Thai foods, snacks and ingredients! They sell hard to find thai products, in a nice and clean space. We loved their Bo Bia Sod! (Fresh spring rolls)

    THAI ICE TEA, PAD THAI, CRAB MEAT FRIED RICE
    Matthew B.

    We visited this little Thai store in Sterling recently and had a good visit. They have a few aisles and fridges/freezers with food, and some restaurant offerings as well. We bought some fresh (non-frozen) durian fruit and ordered some pad thai, crab fried rice, and sticky rice with mango. The food is tasty, affordable, and good portions. The women working in the store were very friendly. There are a few tables to sit at and eat, but it is not like a full sit-down restaurant. Not a bad place to grab some quick and casual Thai food!

    Thai by Thai is a hidden gem in Sterling that deserves so much more love!…read more I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Eed, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. She previously operated several Thai by Thai locations throughout the DMV but has since consolidated them into this final Sterling location. Locals clearly already know how good it is--we visited during a quieter afternoon, but people consistently stopped in for takeout. We tried the Kao Tod Nam Sod, Doo Dee Ma Nao, Kao Kai Jeaw Goong Sub, green curry with beef, Koey See Mee, curry puffs, fried bananas, mango sticky rice, and Thai iced tea. We also had the opportunity to try dishes from the secret menu that I had never seen offered at other Thai restaurants. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The handmade curry puffs were a major highlight. Eed makes the pastry herself, and the outer layer is incredibly thin, light, and delicate. They sell out quickly, so I highly recommend calling ahead to reserve an order if you want to try them. Make sure you also save room for the fried bananas and mango sticky rice! The food is fantastic, the owner is wonderful, and you can tell how much care goes into everything. If you're in the Sterling area, stop by, ask about the secret menu, and support this longtime local restaurant. I truly want to see this place succeed!

    Thaitastic came to my attention through a Yelp email recommending restaurants to try. After…read morelooking at their menu and the great reviews, we decided to give them a try. We were here for an early dinner on Saturday. Once we were greeted, we were told to pick where we wanted to sit. As other Yelpers mentioned, the dining area is small. We sat at a two-top next to another couple, who were clearly regular customers. After we looked at the menu and decided what we wanted, our server arrived promptly. For a starter, we both ordered "vegetable and tofu soup," which consists of "mixed vegetables and tofu in light broth topped with fried garlic and scallions." Sadly, it arrived at the table with no "fried garlic", but still had good flavor. We liked the variety of veggies: baby corn, broccoli, cabbage, snow peas, and carrots. We both thought that the broth could have been a bit more flavorful. To drink, I ordered a Thai iced tea, which was well made. My husband had a light beer. For my main course, I got "lava chicken". I asked if this dish had white meat, and our server said "yes". It consists of "lightly battered chicken stir-fry with sweet chili sauce, topped with scallions and carrots." I had never seen this dish on any Thai restaurant menu before. I would order it again; the sweet chili sauce had a little kick, which I didn't mind. The portion was huge! I took the leftovers home, and we ate them for dinner last night. The dish was still as flavorful as if we had just ordered it. My husband got the "cashew" entree and added shrimp for his protein. Besides the shrimp, the dish consists of "stir-fried cashews, scallions, onions, and carrots in sweet chili paste sauce." Both dishes were served with white rice. Thinking about the food we had, I told my husband it was made with love. His dish was very attractive-looking. In fact, the couple sitting next to us asked my husband about his dish and if he liked it. The server offered us a portion of ice cream; it had a great flavor. Every staff member we interacted with was very polite and friendly. One of them, an older man, insisted on boxing up my leftovers. I wouldn't have minded doing it myself. It was a nice gesture. When we left, the staff wished us a good evening, and we returned the greeting. We let them know that we will be back. Some things to know: they have quite a few tables outside. The restaurant is hard to see because it is set back from the main parking lot. If you see Qdoba, Thaitastic is a short walk around the corner. There is parking in the rear, too.

And of course the food! Although the food can sometimes be greasier than my preference, the taste is exceptional.

My go tos are the drunken noodles and most recently the crab fried rice. And the customer service. As far as that goes, it has been consistently positive. Wait staff is timely and attentive. Thank you!

    Let me start off with the positives, because I really don't like leaving bad reviews, and if you…read morekeep this in mind, you might actually enjoy some great food. The positive is that the food was fantastic. I ordered the Lamb Massaman, and my wife got a yellow curry seafood dish. Both were delicious and more than enough food for each of us, but it was so good we managed to finish it all. We're foodies, and honestly, we'd probably order takeout from here in a heartbeat. For takeout alone, this would be an easy 5-star review, no question. Now, onto the bad. I've been to countless restaurants, both great and terrible, and this was the first time I genuinely felt like walking out. My wife felt bad, but I actually set a three-minute timer, and the server barely beat it. And by that, I mean bringing our drinks (our very first order) after a 45-minute wait. When we first sat down, the server came by within three minutes to take our order, but I asked for a few more minutes. Ten minutes later, we put in the drink order. My wife and I couldn't agree on appetizers, so we asked for a little more time before ordering the entrées. Fast-forward 45 minutes, and we were still sitting there waiting on our drinks, while the table next to us arrived, got their drinks, and even received food all within 30 minutes. It felt like our server was far more focused on bussing and resetting tables to turn covers than actually taking care of the guests already seated. I told my wife we should just get up and go somewhere else; after all, date nights are rare for us, and we deserved a better experience. To make matters worse, when the drinks finally arrived, they were just okay; they tasted watered down and didn't impress me at all. Unless I see consistently great reviews down the line, I'm never setting foot in here again. The atmosphere didn't help, either. It was loud, with the background music turned down so low that you could clearly hear everyone around you shouting and laughing. The place would definitely benefit from turning the music up a bit to drown out the noise. Maybe my expectations were high, but at $28 to $30 per entrée and $16+ per drink, our bill came out to $110 before tip for two plates and two drinks. For that price, it was hands down the worst dining experience I've had anywhere.

The first time we ordered the Ka Prow fried rice and the drunken noodles with medium spice and chicken. I ordered the lunch size drunken noodles and it was a good amount of food! They were the best drunken noodles I've had around here by far. And the Ka Prow fried rice was so smoky and full of flavor! It makes all other fried rices feel boring in comparison. This time I ordered the Kao Soi chicken. It had a delicious red curry sauce and two whole chicken legs with the egg noodles. I loved how rich the flavor of the soup is. The full grilled squid was something we ordered on our first time and it was also really good but I think a tad overcooked. I can't really speak to service other than the staff being friendly when I've walked in to grab our order. But the inside of the restaurant is cozy. We will definitely keep coming back here and highly recommend it if you're in the area.
