Crispy chicken pad Thai
Jenny T.

Food: OMG this crispy chicken pad Thai was delicious! The chicken was so flavorful and the pad Thai was delicious. It was also so fast! Service: Food was so fast. Ambiance: Really nice area with tons of natural lighting. I love it. So clean.

Came here for quick Thai food and obsession with their crispy chicken pad Thai. Price is reasonable for Charlestown area. Services are not the best and half of their dinning area is closed down. But love their Thai food , will come back to try their sushi next time

Pad Thai Lunch with Chicken
Julia B.

Sweet Rice is my absolute FAVORITE restaurant in Jamaica Plain, having lived in JP for several years. I always get their Pad Thai with Chicken. I honestly haven't eaten a pad thai from another city or state that I've enjoyed as much as Sweet Rice's. I also have to drink a Thai Iced Tea every time I visit. Yum! Sweet Rice is never so busy that you cant get a table quickly, though they can get quite bustling on some evenings. The food comes out quickly, which is great when I arrive feeling ravenous! It's never too loud inside that I can't have a nice conversation someone.

Thai pancake was delicious
min t.

The mango rice dessert was delicious. But they didn't wait till dessert time to give it to us. They just kind of threw everything out as it was ready. My favorite was the Thai pancake. It was my first time tasting something like that and it was delicious. Very hot and fresh. The mango duck curry was pretty watery. It didn't feel like they simmered it enough. I like my curry nice and creamy. They also forgot to give us our dragon roll. We had to remind them after eating half of our food. And then they put the order in.

Vegetable Tempura

I've done carry out from Sweet Rice twice and had different experiences! The first time was sort of disappointing. The second time we stuck to sushi and miso soup and it was so delicious!! Absolutely loved it. I'll definitely try Sweet Rice again.

Thai Pancake
Drashti T.

Got takeout from here this past weekend. For appetizers I got a Thai pancake. It came pretty thick which I was not expecting but it tasted really good. It came with a sweet ginger sauce which paired nicely with the umami flavor. I got the drunken noodles for my main. It had a little bit of a kick which was nice and the vegetables were the perfect amount of crunch for texture. The chicken was a little dry and I do wish it had a little bit of sweetness. Overall, it was a good meal

Sweetheart roll
Katherine R.

Nice place to stop into for some sushi or Thai food. Their salmon and tuna is very fresh and tasty, so I usually don't stray from having those, but the fried rice and dumplings are great too. They also have different sizes sushi boats which are cool to try! The place itself is usually pretty quiet and they have a cute setup, but the service could be improved. I have found the servers to be a bit cold and short. For takeout - they seem to have a very successful takeout process. Every time I am in I can see bags lined up and ready to go!

Vegetable Spring Rolls
Stinky P.

It is very groovy to have this restaurant close to Old Stinky"s plush, but not overly ostentatious condo. It was very hot today so Stinky did not even want to go out, not even for a smoke. So he grabbed his MyPad and ordered up some Thai. Tried the Tropical Noodles and Vegetable Spring Rolls. He probably should not have gotten the white rice since he did not expect the main dish to be so noodle heavy. Oh well. The Spring Rolls are always wicked pissah! So crisp and tasty. The noodles were quite tasty and had Chicken, veggies and other groovy stuff. It had quite a zing to it, which is educational for further orders, since Stinky ticked off only 1 star out of 5 for spiciness. He can only imagine what the 5 is like. At his advanced age and unpredictable Gastric System, it is best not to go spicy for reasons the old dude will not go into at this time, but let's just say he ain't named Stinky for nuthin'. Portion of main dish was really large as usual for this place. He could eat not quite half, so that leaves some left for Stinky's pie hole tomorrow. He has ordered from Sweet Rice many times and it's his fave Thai restaurant. Never disappoints the old dude.

Thai was a little diluted, calamari was good!, pad thai taste great, drunken noodle is fair and crispy chicken basil is not that amazing for me. Our server was nice and proactive. Table spacing is wide. Bathroom is clean and smells good. I think people like it here as there are alot of takeout orders waiting. No parking space, so you got to roam around if the street parking is full. Accepts credit/debit. High chair available.

Shrimp Pad C-U Dinner
Tiffani J.

Location matters a lot!! This Sweet Rice is so much better than the one in JP. Years ago, I probably wouldn't have said that. But, this one is good. The food is always fresh. The service is always prompt but not necessarily friendly. There is a chilling politeness but doesn't distract too much from the experience. The food is hot and tasty.

Pad C-U Dinner

Whether it's delivery or dine-in, I've never had a bad meal from Sweet Rice. Ironically my favorites are the fried tofu and Brussels sprouts from the appetizers, but the red curry (chicken), drunken noodles, and pad c-u are all top choices. I think most things can be made vegetarian, which was great news for me. Table mates at the last dine-in raved over the hamachi collar, crab rangoons, and garlic salmon. Excellent service and a very laid back but modern atmosphere.

I remember being recommended this restaurant by Andy from Sipping Room but didn't actually visit…read moreuntil months later when my brother took me. Tbh I don't think I would come here myself if I wasn't recommended to come or have someone tell me what's good. You have to order and pay at the counter first, deciding eat-in or takeout. Either way, you have to grab your own utensils and throw out your own trash. We ordered: tom yum soup noodles with seafood, beef tendon soup noodles, and sticky rice with banana Tom yum soup noodles was labelled with two chilis and I think that's the appropriate amount of heat for me. I like how it has heat without affecting my tastebuds or making me struggle to eat. My nose watered a little but it wasn't like a river. I did have to eat slower due to the heat but it didn't annoy me. The broth isn't overly salty or watery. I like how it's tart and spicy which really increased my appetite. I chose seafood honestly because this is Boston. It came with shrimp, fishballs, and calamari. The shrimp was my favorite part, fresh without being overcooked and rough. Fishballs weren't as chewy and was a bit fishy. Calamari was middle of road with some pieces more tender than others. Beef tendon soup noodles has more of an herbal soy sauce broth that's rich gelatinous (yes it solidifies when cold). The beef tendon and beef stew pieces were all tender and juicy. This is a great hearty option too especially when you're under the weather. It wasn't as outstanding as the tom yum broth to me. The noodles used in their soup is a thin rice noodle. I thought it would be the tough type that can withstand hot soups, but it ended up being soggier than I'd like. The tom yum pad thai also seems good. It smelled good when my brother was reheating his leftovers from a few days ago. Too bad I didn't try a bite. Sticky rice with banana is a banana wrapped in sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf. I like how the sticky rice stays soft inside the banana leaf. The banana seemed too sweet at first but it was a perfect way to balance my palate after I went through the spicy and tart tom yum broth.

I tried this restaurant years ago and was disappointed with the food. After seeing the high reviews…read morehere, I decided to give it another chance. Unfortunately, it was just as disappointing this time--a waste of money. The food lacked the distinctive spices and seasonings that make Thai cuisine so flavorful. The beef salad, consisted of just a few slices of beef that seemed steamed, with a sauce that looked and tasted like the peanut sauce served with the chicken satay. The green curry resembled a good Thai green curry in color only. The spicy and sour soup was neither spicy nor sour--just salty, with two shrimp. The chicken satay was the only edible item. It lacked a flavorful marinade, but at least it wasn't dry, and the peanut sauce made it bearable. I really wanted to enjoy this meal, but giving this restaurant a second chance only confirmed my first impression. It does not do Thai food justice.

We stopped into Thaitation for lunch between visits to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and the…read moreMuseum of Fine Arts; it was the perfect spot, since it only took us about 5 minutes out of the way. The restaurant was casual, but nice, and had several other tables of diners at that time. The staff was very friendly, as well. The menu had some really interesting dishes that I had not seen elsewhere, but I was lame and ordered my usual - Chicken Pad See Ew. I found the poultry to be very tender, and the included broccoli was fresh and crisp. I should note that the broccoli used was the popular Calabrese kind, while Chinese broccoli cost $1 more. In fact, there were several upcharges scattered around the menu, which was a bit much. Anyway, back to the dish...In addition to the broccoli, carrots were also included, which was not typical for Pad See Ew, but I was fine with it! The sweet soy sauce was a bit thick, like a light gravy, so that was a bit unusual, but the flavor was terrific! I heard reasonably positive things about their Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles as well. Thaitation would be a place I would frequent if I lived in the area.

Unassuming restaurant. Not very large, but plenty of open seats on a Friday night. Service was very…read morequick. Noise levels were low for most of the meal, but at one point turned up to blast a rendition of "happy birthday" for another guest - after that, music stayed a bit too loud, which seemed to clash with the otherwise calm ambiance. They didn't ask for our preferred spice levels for the main dishes, and I would've liked everything a little bit spicier. We originally wanted the salmon spring rolls but they were out. We got Tod Mun (fried fish cakes) instead, and they were really tasty. They were smaller but greater in quantity than what I've seen elsewhere, and the sauce was good. I'm not a huge fan of the side salads, though this one surprised me with the spiciness in the dressing. We ordered the mango curry (which comes with chicken, and we added steamed tofu for no charge) and tofu drunken noodles. The noodles were really good, plus looked more appetizing than the similarly-popular pad thai. I was hoping the mango in the curry would be large, beautiful pieces of sweet mango on top, so I was a little disappointed that the small chunks weren't quite as flavorful as I was hoping for. However, I was still quite happy with the dish overall. It also comes with a (pretty small) bowl of rice on the side. The food by itself would be 4 stars for me, except that at the very end of my meal, as I was polishing off the curry, I found a long hair stuck to the bottom of my plate. It didn't match ours, so I know for sure it came from the staff. I know it happens, but the ick factor is hard to get over. Knocked off a star for the unfortunate hair.

This is not a very large restaurant, with a bar, tables lined up along the wall, and window ledge seating near the front. Probably 20 ppl capacity or so, It's a cozy little spot with a lively atmosphere, especially during dinner. One thing that stood out right away was our server. She was extremely friendly, with such an inviting smile and warm demeanor. You could tell she meant business! She got our order in quickly and made us feel welcome from the start. We ordered the spicy ong choy appetizer (Pak Boong Fai Dang), which came with a serious chili kick and was absolutely delish! If you enjoy some heat, this one delivers. The whole branzino (Pla Lui Suan) was another winner, cooked beautifully to the point where the meat was flaky, tender, and practically fell off the bones. We rounded out the meal with crab fried rice to get some carbs into the mix. I especially enjoyed the nice lumps of crab throughout the rice, and the accompanying sauce was a match made in heaven! My only wish? Bigger portions! Everything tasted so good that I wanted more of it. Perhaps that's why they call it Thai tapas? The portions are definitely on the smaller side, especially if you're coming in with a big appetite. You'll probably want to order a few dishes to share. Overall, Mahaniyom delivers some seriously good Thai food with bold flavors, excellent execution, and genuinely hospitable service. Despite the wait and smaller portions, I walked away impressed and would gladly return to try more of their menu. Quality Thai food in Boston that's worth checking out!
