Food (4.6) Service (4.7) Ambiance (4.3)…read more This is still one of our regulars and it's been some time since we reviewed so time for more good words. Four of us visited last night and noticed we were almost the only non-Asians in the place, that tells you it's authentic! We have never had a bad dish and this visit met all expectations. Thai flavors are always exceptional even if you are not a hot spice fan (like me). Three of us started with the Tom Kha Soup, perfect for cold night. Coconut broth with yummy veggies and just the right spices (Galangal is so unique). Shrimp or chicken added is very nice. I had the Pineapple Fried Rice which sounds boring for a main, but it's full of chicken, shrimp, and other flavorful goodies. We sometimes share as an app, but my favorite so must have one way or another. My son has the Duck Curry which was massive, very tender, almost no fat. He took on level 4 spice, not for me but I tried it, wow. The Masaman curry is always a big hit, daughter said it was great once again. Wife had Green Curry with Shrimp, "creamy with crisp vegetables, very good". Servers all seem to be family, and I believe most are. They all treat you with respect and the true care which adds to a nice experience. Ambiance is warm and nice, great spot for table talk. Prices are fair, and yes, they are still BYO! Keep up the great work!!

Reliable local Thai restaurant. Getting out of here is a bit challenging if you need to make the…read moreleft turn on Kinderkamack, but you shouldn't have trouble finding parking in the back. Food-wise you'll find most of the typical Thai restaurant dishes. I like to start with their spring rolls, which are fried crispy and done very well here. I've tried a few of their entrees, and unlike other Thai restaurants where I typically gravitate towards the curries or basil sauce based dishes, those didn't have as much flavor as I expected. What I did find myself enjoying was their fried rice and pad thai noodle dishes, so those would be my recommendations if you're visiting the first time and not sure what to get. I'll add a nice plus is that takeout doesn't cause as much loss in food quality as other places.

THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Food was super fresh and delicious! ++++ Roti - Was OK. A bit on the small side, but it was only $5, so you figure that would be the case that it was a small serving. The curry was a bit watery though. ++++ Tropical Mango with White Rice - Solid. Lots of mango slices and 6 pieces of large shrimp. Also, lots of tropical, sweet sauce, which made it delicious. ++++ Pad See Ew with Beef - Fantastic! Came out piping hot and fresh with plenty of beef and veggies. Portion was pretty big too. Personally, one of the best Pad See Ew entrees I've had in NJ still. ++++ Chinese Broccoli with Chicken and White Rice - Excellllllent. The chicken and Chinese broccoli had LOTS of sauce and there were carrots and mushrooms mixed in. The chicken was surprisingly pretty tender for chicken breast. + Employees were very friendly and prompt, always filling our hot teas. + Food came out blazzzingly fast, within minutes of us ordering. + Not a huge restaurant, but still plenty of tables and seats. + Private parking lot to the side. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Nada. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Came on a Saturday evening from 5:45-7 and it was quiet at first, but a steady stream of customers came in - mostly families - however, there were still open tables. CONCLUSION -------------------- - Unsurprisingly, the food during our dine-in experience was even better than when we did takeout! Definitely a solid Thai food option in the area!

This place has the best spring rolls and chicken pad tai!! We travel 45min to get this!!!!read more

RUN DON'T WALK TO THIS SPOT, I'M SO SERIOUS…read more This is the best, most authentic Thai food I've eaten since my vacation to Thailand (Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Koh Samui) with my husband in 2024. I truly can't even name a favorite off the menu because everything I've tried here is elite lol Pad Thai, Massamon curry, pineapple fried rice, tom yum soup. Omg literally just get ANYTHING on the menu and it's gonna be a BANGER. Fast, efficient, and kind staff too. HIGHLY recommend!

Inside, we sat down and ordered the Calamari, the shrimp dumplings, a shrimp in green curry and chicken and cashews. Everything came out hot and fresh. The calamari with duck dipping sauce is best eaten while hot, the shrimp wontons were delish'. The shrimp and green curry was my favorite dish of the evening, with the chicken and cashews being good...but not special. Koon Thai is definitely on my short list! Give it a try.

It was so chewy, I couldn't enjoy it. The pandan custard was very yummy but slightly too sweet for me. I ate all the dessert but would've loved it if it was slightly less sweet. This is a great date place and I love the service. I'd come back to try more things and to definitely get the calamari again.

I was stunned to find my takeout actually taste good. That doesn't happen often, for some reason,…read moreand I have my own speculations why. Usually it doesn't travel well, and 2, kitchens don't put as much effort into to go meals because it's not as profitable. Well, worry not about that at Thai Shack. My pad woon sen was every bit as good as it would tasted dining indoors. My Thai tea was perfectly sweet and bitter, the way it should be. And my spring rolls still retained the crisp after being packed, even though it's been waiting to be picked up for 15 minutes. I'm very satisfied and will have to make another trip here when in town!

We were at a bball game down the street and wanted a snackysnack. As a Thai food snob (my father…read morelived in Thailand/nyc baby ) we were just hungry and my expectations were what I thought realistic for Teaneck Thai. Yet, I was humbled... We ordered a super simple meal and every dish had something that made it delicious and delightfully unique. Cute, clean and quaint but we got it to go. We were greeted by a lovely Woman and while it was hoppin with phone and Togo orders, she took the time to connect and thank us. clearly there is attention to detail and love in preparing this food! The crisp of the lightly salted pork belly and chive dumpling showed this is nacho average wannabe Thai grub. The peanut sauce, and tangy lime sauce with the pork... The perfectly adherent but not gummy sticky rice...we will be back! Thanks Yelpers for this win.....And we won the game too! Go Panthers

The food is absolutely delicious and authentic. Thai food thats cooked by Thai chef. I am thai and if you know you know. Thai culinary is difficult to master unless you were raised to cook since you were 5 years old. The ambience of the restaurant is cute and casual. It great for a friend and family gatherings. You can bring your favorite person to experience the new dishes and taste of Thai cuisine. The staff is friendly and welcoming. FYI: Not all food comes spicy, you can ask for not spicy at all dishes or you can raise the level of spicy based on your preference. Enjoy!!

Green curry is very good. It's odd that you are unable to mix proteins. Either way, the Pad Thai is…read morevery mid grade and the wings are extremely inedible. They are fatty, soggy, and appear to not be of the chicken species. They're wildly unpalatable. I've also had the fried pork belly from takeout. On one occasion, it was very good. On another occasion it was as if the frier ran out of oil so they used water to make up for the missing oil. Absolute disgusting and will never order from here again. The place is well patronized as if the fine in experience is drastically different- which I assume it is because some nights the parking lot is full. However, I will never dine here again due to the level of disgust I have for the food is personal at this point. As if the establishment goes out its way to disappoint me at a fundamental level.

But when it comes to Thai food, there's just two, and Khao Thai is one of them. Inside, the space is fairly large but it's kept relatively quiet and intimate with lots of two-tops. Our crispy calamari appetizer was a bit of a letdown. While hot and crispy, they seemed to have been breaded and fried as clumps. Even the accompanying sweet chili sauce couldn't mask that tough, rubbery texture. Entrees fared just a little better. My pad see ew was a little bland but perked up with some chili sauce dribbled over the plate by the spoonful. I chose beef as my protein and while there weren't a ton of beef pieces, the few I had were wonderfully tender. Service was friendly and lovely. Our server (who I also assume is the owner) welcomed us warmly and was quick to check on us. I was endeared by the owner's young daughter who came by to help and made sure all our water glasses stayed filled. I know we're riding the giant inflation wave, but the serving size felt a little paltry for the prices. Even after an appetizer and two entrees, we both had enough stomach space after dinner to fill up with nuggets at a nearby fast food restaurant.

The portion size is quite small. I just had Thai at another location earlier this week and this is…read morea stark difference. Flavors were okay. The pad Thai was way too sweet. The waitress wasn't rude but she didn't come back after bringing the food. Another person, maybe the manager or owner (and adult whereas the waitress was a teen or very early 20s) came out and never even spoke to or looked toward our table. I guess if I was desperate for Thai and nothing else was available I might try again but I'm not. I don't plan to return. The pad Thai is very one note which is the opposite of what makes Thai food amazing to begin with.
