pad thai with shrimp
Michelle L.

I ordered the pad thai, but it was far too sweet for my liking. It needed less sweetness and more salt or perhaps some sort of acidity. Maybe both. I still ate my noodles, but I am not sure I would return. They were good about nut allergies though!

Red Curry with Pork
Katie-Ann F.

Delicious Thai food in Ithaca! Their pad Thai is exceptional with layers of flavor from the noodles smothered in tamarind sauce to the peanuts to the lime. Very large portions as well. I've tried both the pork and beef, and would say the beef is better as the pork was kinda dry and tough. Their red curry is also super flavorful with the perfect amount of heat that complements the spices of the curry and coconut. The pork in the curry was not as dry and paired nicely with the vegetables (peppers, zucchini, bamboo shoots). Overall, this restaurant is one of my go-tos in Ithaca. Very solid Thai food, and I would definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu! (I wished they also had mango sticky rice or other desserts on their menu like Taste of Thai in The Commons:))

coconut pudding
V. Monki. W.

Surprised to find thai food so good in ithaca. The curry was exceptional. The coconut pudding was similar to ones I had in Thailand. Haven't had pad see ewe that tastes so good in a while. Service was ok, staff was friendly. Glad I found this place while visiting.

Panang Curry
Amanda W.

Finally offer indoor dining! Only if you are Ok with eating from plastic containers. Ordered two soups, both the Tom Yum and Tom Kha. Both cups for individual size. The Tom Yum was very good! Loved the lemongrass spicy flavor! Both were veggies. Then ordered two curries. Green curry with beef and the Panang with chicken. Both delicious! I usually prefer green curry, which was flavorful. But this time I actually liked the Panang more! Both were good portions and had good amount of veggies. I like the food overall. But the ambiance is less than perfect. If you are OK with eating out of plastic, then it is your spot.

Thai beef salad. Actually good

Avoid - super poor service. Food is better but be prepared to wait forever when they are filling online orders.

Placed a DoorDash order for lunch and it arrived hot and on time. The gyoza and sauce were good…read more The bulgogi was good but could use a little more beef and a few less onions. Overall, very tasty, would definitely try another dish here.

Always the superior Thai spot. It may not be as packed as Taste of Thai or Thai Basil, but it is…read morewhere the Asian folks (and Thai natives) all go. Their Thai tea is far better than Thai Basil, as is their food. When I organized events with the Cornell Southeast Asia Program, Tamarind was my preferred catering as well. Best pad see ew in town, with the perfect noodle texture and rich flavor (from wok energy). Love the coconut sticky rice dessert (and the gifted ceramic dishes which come with). Also highly recommend the mango sticky rice. Non-spicy: Yellow curry, Pad See Ew, Pad Thai. Spicy: Green curry (had it with chicken, duck) My only concern is how understaffed it often is. Usually one staff member to manage the whole floor, and kitchen staff in the back. And once a phone order was missing a dish (probably due to the poor single person managing the whole floor as cashier, host, wait staff, etc). This often sets take-out orders back as well. Usually on slower days, it's fast (20 mins). On bad days...like Cornell graduation weekend, it will take an hour+. I think there was a huge group of over a dozen in the tiny restaurant, ordering lots of food & drink. Came in to pick up at the time projected & sadly had to hang out at the restaurant an extra 30 mins + because of the overwhelmed staff. Let's hope they tipped generously! I would love to dine in one day, if they ever set up a table outdoors. In the meantime, for takeout, ALWAYS call to check on your order, given how busy & behind on orders they often get. The food is still worth us coming back again and again!

Not the best bread I've ever had but pretty good. Also got the patatas bravas which for me was my favorite dish. Super flavorful. We got two dishes the Spring cavatelli and the moosewood burger. The burger was really good but the pasta is where I could see why some people threw around the word bland. I don't want to say it was bad, it just was very light and didn't have a rich flavor like most pasta dishes. We got the matcha panna cotta to go which was also pretty good. Overall I think it just depends on the dish you get but I was fully expecting straight up bland food based on other reviews but that wasn't the case. The cavatelli could use a little work though. Overall it was nice.

Food is okay. We…read moretried the lasagna and strozzapretti- I wish the pastas were homemade, but at least they were prepared well. Al dente and good flavors. I would eat these again. We also tried the thai curry, burrata, peach salad. The peaches were not ripe, but the crunch was a nice textural component. Burrata and curry were fine. I wish the curry was spicier. I liked the thin ribbons of cucumber in the burrata dish though. Maybe I am being too harsh... I had rather high expectations coming into Moosewood, and the food wasn't bad per se, but nothing really wowed me. I would eat here again, but I wouldn't seek it out.
