I grew up eating Thai food nearly every other weekend, and this restaurant has some of the best I've had. The restaurant is in a relatively nondescript location on Glebe, but the interior was surprisingly well-done compared to similar restaurants. The food presentation was also top-notch among Thai restaurants I've tried. I went with a large group and we ordered a number of dishes for family-style dining. I highly recommend the Green Papaya salad, which was a unique item I hadn't tried before. The Drunken Noodles are also a solid choice if you're looking for something with a little more spice. The Green Curry is well-executed, but not too different from the usual. The Jungle Curry, while extremely spicy, did not have enough flavor for my tastes. Great for groups as the servers are willing to split checks individually. This place has my full recommendation, and I can't wait to go back. read more

Tried this place for the first and last time. Ordered delivery at 9 pm and it took more than an hour to arrive, despite the owner telling me when I called that the driver had left mere minutes after the order was placed. When I called a 2nd time, she said that the driver wasn't answering her phone. When she finally arrived, she professed not to know that I'd been calling looking for the food. So, how was the food? Below average, unfortunately, and not just because it was riding around for at least 45 minutes. Drunken noodle/beef: gummy noodles, all stuck together. A few sad pieces of beef, which I picked out before tossing the rest Larb: the worst I've ever had. It was dried out minced chicken with no sauce or spice sitting on a bed of lettuce. Inedible. Thai dumplings: not very tasty They also used styrofoam containers read more

Solid take-out/delivery Thai food in Arlington. I've also eaten in the restaurant and it was fine, though the ambiance is nothing to rave about. It's often pretty quiet and a bit sterile inside. It's a small restaurant with a handful of tables. Located in a small strip mall off of Glebe, parking is a bit tight and depending on time of day, can be difficult. The food is tasty though, and the prices are about right for Arlington (read: Arlington is overpriced for everything). The Penang curry is my go-to, and has plenty of coconut milk to make it creamy and smooth. I usually add both chicken and veggies to it so that it is nice and hearty. You also can't go wrong with the Thai Basil stir fry and the pad thai. read more

I really wanted to like Thai Curry, especially since it's another Thai place I can order delivery from, but the wait time for delivery was literally 2 hours (this is not an exaggeration) and the portions are really small while the prices are steep. I ordered the chicken panang curry (The place is called "Thai Curry;" Of course I'm going to order the curry). My bf, not loving spicy food as much as I do, ordered the chicken pad thai. We also got some spring rolls as an appetizer. The chicken panang curry I ordered was decent, but nothing phenomenal. And it certainly didn't warrant the 2-hour wait. We ordered at around 8:30pm on a Friday and our food didn't get there until 10:30pm. We were super hungry, needless to say! They told us it would be about an hour's wait. Judging from the other reviews, delivery from this place is generally slow. I would recommend ordering from Bangkok Bistro instead if you're in the neighorhood. I've ordered from Bangkok Bistro on numerous occasions and they are always quick and have large portions that are worth the price. I doubt I'd order from Thai Curry again. read more

I can't believe I'm jumping from 1 star to 5 stars but I am. They offered me pad Thai that I was supposed to get for my last order for free which shows that they care about their customers. Since they offered me free food I couldn't just get it without purchasing anything else so I ordered the same fried rice to give it another try and it was completely different than the last one. Pad Thai was delicious the fried rice was delicious also. Thank you Thai curry. read more

Thai Curry - Panang curry w/beef, pad see ew w/beef, Thai fried rice w/chicken - Thai Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Thai Curry definitely has the Asian Fusion look and feel! The restaurant maximizes their space with seating and tables with minimal mass crowd effects. I found it easy to navigate through the restaurant without bumping into chairs or people. For appetizers we had: * Wings - Deep fried and crispy serve with Thai spicy sauce on the side * Steamed Mussels The main course included: * Roast Duck Noodles - Chinese influenced dish with sweet soy, XO sauce, cilantro, bok choy and broth served on the side. * Soft shell crab - Lightly battered and deep fried soft shelled crab serve over pad thai sauce, tofu, scallions, bean sprouts. * Crispy Catfish (Pad Ped Pla Dook) - Deep fried catfish sautéed with a Thai red curry sauce along with Green peppercorns, Thai eggplant, kaffir lime leaves, Thai chili, Thai basil for flavor. I enjoyed the wings although I prefer Bangkok Noodle's as its crisper and has more flavor. The Roast Duck Noodles were tasty as the flavor was just in the middle between sweet and sour. Soft shell crab could've been bigger but we ate it up. Crispy catfish was fried well, e.g. no excess grease yet crispiness. The dish could've been spicier but we added some fish sauce and Thai Chili pepper. I was a bit disappointed Thai Curry did not offer any discounts or special menu items in celebration with Songkran. The Thai Embassy listed this restaurant along with others in their flyer below: http://www.thaiembdc.org/l-news/images/mvw_rt.pdf The food was good nonetheless and worthy of a future visit. 3.5 stars! Other Useful Thai Curry Tips: * Ask about the VIP card. Frequent diners can collect points for about every dollar spent. I believe a free entree is redeemable for 200 points. * Can you sing? If so, try Thai karaoke songs at Thai Curry * Need a place to host a private party? Thai curry can host private parties for your pleasure. read more

Review is for delivery only. Never eaten in. This place is a lifesaver. The delivery is insanely fast - only Jimmy John's beats them for delivery speed. Very often they'll be 10-15 minutes before their delivery estimates. I always get the chicken satay, which is super tasty. Great peanut sauce. I also always get the tender beef panang curry. Unlike most "quick curries" which are a combination of stir-fry protein and a pre-made curry sauce, the tender beef panang curry cooks the beef and the sauce together. The result is super tender, juicy, big chunks of beef and a more flavorful panang curry broth. The best panang curries are always slow-cooked with the beef, and this is no exception. It's delicious, and among the best panang curry I've ever had. Not only that, but on eat24, the delivery minimum is only $15 and there's no delivery fee. That means delivery thai for one person is actually do-able. Thai Curry, you're amazing. read more

I invited my friends from the neighborhood to meet me for dinner. The restaurant was quiet but hopefully they'll get some business. I ordered the pink noodle soup with wide rice noodles it was a bit tart and salty, the bowl of noodles swam in a pinkish broth it was very delicious. It had dried tofu, squids, shrimps crispy wontons and I added extra fish balls. I sprinkled crazy amount of peppers all over. It was soooo good! We also tried the Southern Wild Pork it was more southern Thai style, a bit of india-malaysian influence in a drier curry sauce. I wished everything was warmer when served. Minita was very sweet she came by to check on us and treated us to a complimentary roti wrapped(crepe-like) with banana and a chocolate sauce. She also gave us some discount cards for the next visit. read more

Came here for dinner last night after craving some Thai food and we did not regret the decision! They have an ongoing 3 course meal for $15-18 depending on what you want. Ordered the kapow, yellow curry, wonton soup, Tom yum, taro balls, and fried bananas. Wow- this was an absolute meal deal to steal! To be honest I was very surprised at the quality of the dinner- it was authentic and not too sweet. Flavors were perfect. Further, the quantity was very very large - you will definitely have plenty to take home. (The appetizer alone filled us up!). They can turn up the heat really easily on the spiciness but were extremely accommodating. I ordered all of my dishes with low spiciness level and was not bothered at all by the spice. The service was also very attentive! Only note to consider is that parking is few and a bit tight, but otherwise this is a great place for a quick bite or a casual evening out with a friend or a loved one! read more

Thai Curry - Taro ball in coconut desert and fried banana egg rolls! - Thai Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

On a rainy Saturday even with nothing else to do after attending the Arlington County Fair, we decided to come here for some curry. Curry was what we ordered. We started with the Green Papaya Salad - Som Tum, requested it for it to be extra spicy, and extra spicy it was. We highly enjoyed it and aside from the red chili peppers, we ate every last bite of the salad. I ordered the Massamun Curry, good flavor, not spicy at all (but then again, I'm Vietnamese, one that LOVES her dishes extremely spicy), and you can really taste the sweetness of the coconut in the dish. The chicken cubes were on the drier side of things and the potato pieces were still very hard and a little too undercooked. The other half ordered the Green Curry. Again, the flavor was very pleasing to the mouth, had somewhat of a kick and the chicken was well cooked. Service was good, there were only one server that night, but then there were only six customers that night, not a lot to tend to. The inside decor was very "Thai restaurant-ish", small and pleasing to the eyes. I liked it, but would I ever drive all the way from DC to Arlington for this small Thai spot? No. Would I recommend this place to those living in Ballston and would like a good Thai spot to go to? Yes. For the two of us (two curry dishes, one papaya salad, one unsweeten ice tea, one thai ice tea) the bill came out to be about $52 with tips and tax. Good food, excellent service, definitely recommended! read more

They are sweet. The happy hour specials are good (shrimp bikini, anyone?) as deep fried things should be. The yellow curry is nice and the chicken is breast meat in large visible hunks. The drunken noodles are actually spicy enough for me to think, "wow, these noodles are spicy." But, the duck in roti was so old and gross that I gagged. So, I won't get that again. But, I'll be back if I need to get some okay Thai food and wouldn't rather have Ravi Kabob. read more

Ordered delivery today for lunch and got crab fried rice and wonton soup. Let's start with the service - I selected a pre paid 15 percent tip. The driver called when he arrived and said there wasn't parking and asked me to walk down and meet him outside at his car! That was disappointing. The food itself was good and tasty, no complaints on that front. However, the value was a let down ! Regular fried rice with chicken is $11, so the upcharge to get crab instead is $6 ($17 per crab fried rice entree). There was literally three small (hazelnut sized) pieces of crab in the entire portion. What? It was basically plain fried rice! The wonton soup had 3 wontons in it. They were good, but again - really? Not generous on the portions especially when you consider the price is not cheap. Poor value! read more

After lamenting the lack of Thai places near me, I decided to try this place out. One word: amazing. I'm no stranger to Thai food, having spent quite some time in Thailand, which is why I'm so picky about Thai restaurants. More than a few in the area leave much to be desired. One night, my boyfriend and I were famished, and we decided to order Thai that would get here quick. I always ask for my dishes to be made without fish sauce -- an odd request for a Thai restaurant, but most can accommodate accordingly. After I placed an order, Thai Curry called me several times (my phone was on vibrate, so their persistence to get in touch with me spoke volumes) to tell me that some dishes I ordered (namely, pad thai and veggie green curry) could not be made without fish sauce. No matter, we changed our order and everything was smooth sailing from there. We ordered som tum (sans fish sauce), green curry with chicken, and pad see ew (sans fish sauce). Som tum, one of my favorite salads ever, is my go-to tester for Thai restaurants. Most restaurants serve a "watered-down" version to customers, where the salad is nowhere as spicy or tangy as it should be. Eating Thai Curry's som tum was like eating som tum straight out of Thailand -- super spicy and super delicious! The pad see ew was also quite flavorful, with just the right mix of veggies, noodles and sauce. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed the green curry, heat-induced sweat and all. I was quite pleased with the fact that management kept calling me to inform me that they wouldn't be able to make some dishes without fish sauce, because I have had experiences where management simply ignores my request. Thai Curry proved to me that they want me to enjoy the food. Our food arrived at our door, after changing the order, in a matter of 20 or so minutes. Fast! Portion sizes are also quite generous, so we were able to eat two solid meals from one order. I will definitely be ordering/eating from Thai Curry again in the future. read more

This is a very cute place with friendly waitress, relaxing music, nice environment, delicious food and a bar with bubble tea. And not overpriced. I highly recommend this place. read more

Thai Curry - The best pad Thai I've had. - Thai Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Not sure how we didn't find this place sooner (having lived in the Ballston area for a while now)...in any case, it's been incredible every time we've ordered (three so far). Tonight I got the Seafood Panang Curry...and WOW...delicious. Crispy Duck Kapraw (had last time), Drunken Noodle and Green Curry have also all been excellent. I appreciate that the restaurant handles delivery themselves (through ChowNow) and their driver(s) have been great and have come masked up each time and happy to leave the order at the front door. Highly recommend! read more

We ordered lunch delivery and the portion sizes were TINY. This would be a great Thai restaurant for ants but the small amount of food I got for $12 still left me hungry afterwards. They also did not provide a straw with my Thai iced tea. read more

Decent Thai, have had it once in the restaurant and once delivery. Obviously delivery quality is a bit slacking although the pad Thai is solid. read more

Wow this place was really surprisingly good. Despite the surrounding area, it is very nice inside and service was very good. Food is great for vegetarians! My girlfriend is vegan and almost everything was veganizable. Recommended. read more

I ordered a food from here and trying to pick it up, by the time when I was picking up my food they messed up the order and owner of the restaurant was started getting angry and yelled at me for no reason. The food was terrible and service as well. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT!! HORRIBLE!! HORRIBLE!! read more

Placed a delivery order for the massaman curry and chicken satay appetizer. It arrived pretty quickly, in less time than they estimated, but the curry didn't come with any rice. They were pretty quick to send the delivery guy back with it though. The chicken satay and the curry seemed kind of bland. Didn't seem like it was worth it given the price. (came out to be roughly $23 after a $3 tip) The portion size was also kind of small. It would be unfair of me to not note that I do have a cold, which might possibly be affecting my sense of taste. I'll have to give this place another try on another day. Edit: I should also probably note, I'm new to the area, so I might be off on it being pricey. I moved here from Florida and restaurants were fairly cheap there. read more

This place is awesome! Me and a friend who actually lives in Ballston were hungry and didn't have an idea where to go. The place is literally walking distance from his place so we decided to walk over and check it out. The inside looks amazing! Very small inside, but it gives it a pretty intimate atmosphere. For an appetizer we had their version of chicken satay which was AMAZING! The peanut sauce was glorious. I loved the fact that the peanuts were minced and not chunky pieces of peanuts. The chicken was moist and savory. Perfect. For our entrees, I had the drunken noodle and he had a dish with fried duck which were both tasty! I can't wait to go back to try the rest of the menu! Also, we didn't drink but we noticed they had a pretty good choice of beer,wine, and sake for a really good price. read more

I am surprised by the good reviews for this establishment. A bad alternative to our regular Arlington thai restaurants. Delivery took almost two hours and when I called to check the status, the lady on the phone was not helpful at all. Food - ordered Thai chicken Basil Spicy Fried Rice and the beef thai basil stir-fry and I would definitely not recommend it. Besides food arriving cold, beef was hard and dry, the rice a little on the salty side but ok to eat. We have better Thai places in Arlington so avoid this one. read more

Excellent! We were looking for great Thai delivery on a rainy night and this was the place! No delivery fee either. We are spice faces, so we got the Thai hot for everything and mannnnn they are NOT kidding around. I would likely go with medium on the papaya salad, which was superb and crunchy. The green curry with chicken was lovely and rich. And the drunken noodles with beef were wonderful. The standard items were so tasty, next time I would venture into more adventurous fare. read more

I'm visiting the area with my family this week and we are absolutely wiped out. We decided to order in from Thai Curry only to discover they didn't deliver to our hotel. They were kind enough to make an exception to the rule and brought us the most delicious meal we've had thus far during our time here. We ordered spring rolls (meat and veggie), chicken panang curry, tofu red curry, won ton soup, and plain fried rice. We are Thai food connoisseurs and this food was legit. Great customer service, even better food. Thank you! read more

Underwhelming. Based on the 4+ stars on Yelp, my friend and I decided to order take-out last night. Here's what we ordered: Thai dumplings - this is close to the shu mai that you'd get from Chinese restaurants. The fillings were good, but for the portion (5 pieces) for $7 is a bit steep. An odd number to split between two people, and not a valued appetizer for one person. 6 pieces for $6-6.50 is about where other establishments are set. Thai ice tea - what you expect by DC/Maryland standard. So no complaints here. Thai Suki - the chicken was too dry, and the flavor wasn't that special. Seafood Pad Thai - the seafood portion was too small. I normally don't count meat portion, but it was lopsided that I could easily count three shrimps, two pieces of squid, and some diced up scallops. For $14, I felt it could be more. The noodles were cooked ideal, but the sauce felt flat and dry. Two tidbits: *We called for a take-out and drove in from DC. After a 20 minute drive, we still waited another 15 minutes to get our food. It seems as if there are not enough staff members, even though it was a small space. *Nice decoration and floor spacing. The atmosphere was nice and the staff member was also polite. Won't be back based on the food. read more

This place really hit the spot, i had the chicken pho with tom yum broth and it was so savory and flavorful. I was surprised by how long it kept the warmth of the bowl. The taro with coconut cream was also warm and delicious! read more

First off, free delivery with GrubHub and secondly, YUM! This review is based on delivery and the food alone and I give it 5 stars. We ordered the pad thai, chicken curry, and catfish and all dishes were very yummy and tasty. The portions to-go were very generous and plenty enough for two people. The pad thai was moist and flavorful, unlike some places where I think it can be too dry or too bland. It was just right. My boyfriend got the chicken panang curry and said it was absolutely delicious. We added veggies to ours and extra chicken and it was perfect! Just the right amount of sweetness with a little spicy kick. We also ordered the catfish and it surprisingly very tasty as well! That catfish was breaded/crispy and some parts were a tad bit too salty for my taste, but it didn't take away from the saucy, yummy broth it came with. So glad to know there's a yummy Thai place around the corner from us! read more

I love this place. Their food is a bit salty but still has awesome flavor and just the right amount. I moved away but if I'm ever in Arlington, I'll be stopping by for a meal! read more

Same difficult parking, great new interior, and a very good new menu, but I didn't have my reading glasses with me, so I couldn't read it. I should have made a few notes when we got home last night, but what sticks with me this morning are the slightly fatty, but very tasty duck dishes, including a slightly sweetened red curry and and a very nice duck roti roll appetizer. Unfortunately, the mixed seafood dish was one of the most forgettable Thai dishes that I've had in a long time. Did I mention that for a more thorough review from someone whose opinion I respect and who doesn't need glasses to read the menu, you should check out Jessica M's (in addition to the estimable Nicole L and Steph L)? It should be up some time later today. read more

Took a leap on this place-- 4.5 yelp avg... and a groupon?! awesome! In short, I love Thai food, and my favorite/usual would be Busara (reston/Tysons). However, it's always nice to find another option, especially one with a different menu. Thai Curry has a large menu for such a small establishment. I would say it extends past Thai to other Asian varieties. The service was excellent. The food was as well. The two of us ordered: Appetizers: Duck Roti Gyoza Thai riffic Tofu Entree: Green Curry Roasted Duck All were amazing. The Duck Roti had an excellent pancake wrap and the duck had just a tad of fat on it. The gyoza and tofu appetizers were quite large. There were 8 gyoza and probably 10 pieces of tofu. Both entrees were spicy and extremely flavorful (that the spice doesn't overwhelm the taste). Would I return? Most def! (even sans groupon, since prices were very reasonable) read more

I really liked this dining experience! We came for lunch with a baby, a toddler, and 3 adults. The waitress was very accommodating with our situation and kindly rearranged some space for our party! The food here was very good! We had a Thai beef salad that was refreshing and had a spicy kick. The spice on the beef was really good. The yellow curry was also very good - nothing special, but done very well. We took this home and it still tasted good the next day The pad thai was a little bit too ketchupy and sweet, very Americanized tasting. Lastly, we had a lunch special called sizzling beef which was very very tasty. It was cooked with onions and served with a bowl of rice. It is located in a strip mall, but the interior is newly remodeled. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area. read more

Cheap Thai food in a sketchy area. We come here for quick and easy Thai food. The food is cheaper than most and portions are good enough. We started off with the calamari and then got pad Thai. They don't have the hot sauce we like but the food never disappoints and the service is usually good. The restaurant is small but there's never a wait even on Friday evenings! read more

Thai Curry - Pad thai - Thai Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

See all

Our go-to, hands down Thai restaurant. Whether you are looking to get delivery, or dine in, it's a picture of consistency. The kapow is off the charts. Really tasty. Thai Curry is probably a monthly buy at our house. read more

Good place for Thai food. I've only eaten in, since I live nearby. Don't worry about the location - it's a great area (try Ravi Kabob while you're there!). The ambiance is fine - modern and quiet, because whenever I've been there in the past, usually most orders are for takeout. I've had the crispy tofu, pad thai, drunken noodles and red curry with chicken and veggies. All very good, though I wish the curry ("medium") was spicier - it was definitely mild. Prices are fine for Arlington - definitely more affordable than Sawatdee. I love Sawatdee, but I rarely go because of their prices. I'll continue to go to Thai Curry as long as I live in the area! read more

ONNNNN point. Everything i ate was delicious: Pad se ew, tom yum soup, fried veggie spring rolls and mango sticky rice. I will be back !

If you live around the area, or happen to stop by Ballston Commons, then you should definitely give this place a try! The lunch specials are a great deal: $10 for a variety of large portion dishes, such as green curry beef or pad see ew with wonton soup and spring roll. We also had some very good appetizers; I recommend the soft roll in particular, which is veggies and meat wrapped in flat noodle roll. While the "normal" sounding name may suggest questionable authenticity, the taste definitely disproves that: for example, the curry was less about coconut milk (typical Chinese-made thai) and more overall spice mix. It did seem a tad bit more salty than other traditional Thai places. Kudos to the chic decor, good food, and solid prices. read more

Yelpers rated Ravi Kabob (next door) high and I loved it, so I returned for another go. But I forgot Ravi is cash-only, so I ended up up Thai Curry. The food is day and night. Also based on Yelp reviews, I tried the Duck Roti and was really disappointed. The tamarind sauce was too sweet, and the roti was too wheaty. For an entree, I had the Panang Curry with beef, and was let down too. While the sauce was three-star good, the beef tasted like overcooked pot roast. On top of all this, the menu seems overpriced to me ... their current 15% off promo for Yelpers that check in twice brings it back into the "reasonable" realm, but since the food sucks it's not really worth it. Also, the "ambiance" is nice if you like bad karaoke tunes, chasing LED lights, and badly constructed tiered ceilings. Next time I'm in the area, I'll be sure not to forget to visit the ATM first, and stay with Ravi Kabob. read more

I wanted to update and say that they've now changed to this "express" format (in fact I think the restaurant is now called 'Thai Curry Express') I am not sure how it is express... they seat you at a table with a menu, but instead of coming by to take your order they ask that you walk down to the bar to order. Not a big deal, just kind of strange since they seat you and all. Then the food is brought to your table by a server and they come back to refill water, etc. Then at the end of the meal you pay at the bar. It really isn't bothersome, I'm just not sure how this is an improvement for either staff or customers. It makes customers do more work and really doesn't cut back on work for their staff. Also, I ordered their drunken noodles last time we went, and for some strange reason it was EXTREMELY spicy. To their credit, it did say they were spicy on the menu, and that is part of the reason I ordered the dish- drunken noodles aren't normally served very spicy at Thai restaurants so I was curious. I have an extremely high tolerance for spice, but even I was struggling through this dish. So much so that it wasn't even really enjoyable. Overall still good food at a good price, though. read more

Last night, my other half took me to this new Thai restaurant in Arlington for my birthday. I must say that it's the only place in the DC metro area that has the most authentic Thai food. The smell and taste totally reminded us of the food we had when we visited Bangkok a couple of years ago. Specifically, we had drunken noodles and green curry chicken. Heavenly scrumptious. Of course, we had tom yum gung in the beginning, which was also very tasty. My mouth is starting to water as I continue to type this review The food trumps all the other Thai restaurants I have tried here in this area. The restaurant used to be called Bangkok Siam but it is called Bangkok Curry. The restaurant has recently changed hands and renovated. It doesn't look too much from outside but the interior is very chic. When you drive down on Glebe, the sign still says Bangkok Siam. The service was great too. 307 N.

I am scarfing down a plate full of delicious Chicken Pad Thai as I type this review and am loving every slippery noodle of it. I was driving home after a 2 hour massage session (Note: I FINALLY treated myself to a massage after dishing out hundreds of hours worth of massages to others over the past few months!) with zero urge to cook dinner for myself, when I happened to look up and see THAI CURRY in neon letters! I thought it was too good to be true and must be a mirage, but it didn't disappear as I got closer. It is indeed the real deal. It's Thai Curry! I live 3 blocks from this restaurant and have never eaten here. Huge faux pas on my part! They make amazing chicken pad thai. I have a very Mid-western taste pallet so I'm not a fan of the spicy, but I do like flavorful foods. This has mucho flavor. Give me a heaping plate of hot delicious chicken pad Thai with a lime wedge to squeeze over it for $13 and I'll be your loyal customer forever! THANKS, THAI CURRY! I'LL BE BACK! read more
