    E1. Hot Basil Entree with Beef
    Kelly Y.

    More of a 3.5 rating.....Craving Thai food and used Yelp to help us find Thai Delight. We ordered takeout with a few dishes to sample the menu a little more. Ordering by phone was easy and I was told it would be 25 minutes which it was. By the time we got there, we overheard them telling call in orders it would be an hour wait so they were busy and I suggest calling orders in early! As others have mentioned the restaurant is in a unique, slightly odd location but worth the stop. I would say we enjoyed 4 out of the 5 dishes we got so that is pretty good! The only miss was the sweet chili wings and from the photos you can tell they were dry and over fried. The Pad Thai and Drunken Noodle were good- I enjoyed the beef in the drunken noodle more than the pork in the Pad Thai which was slightly drier. Next time, I would opt for just beef in either of the noodle dishes. The drunken noodle was certainly spicy as they state and had great flavor. The Pad Thai was also good and had a good mix of authentic ingredients. The Hot Basil Beef entree was done well with a nice assortment of vegetables and a side of white rice (not shown in photos). It got my husband's seal of approval and he ate it all up! He enjoys spicy food and found the heat level to be just right. Often, he will complain spicy dishes are not spicy enough but he did not complain this time with the hot basil entree. Overall, a solid choice for takeout Thai food in the local area. We would definitely go back to sample more of the menu and repeat getting some of the entrees we ordered this evening again another time.

    S2. Coconut Soup

    Got take out- Large soup was short by several ladles! I was yummy, though. Just pointless to get the large one if they aren't gonna give you the full amount.

    Thai fish cakes. Delicious and spongy like they should be!

    One of the best restaurants in Newtown!! If you love Thai food you must check this place out. I've never had a bad meal here and I've eaten here a handful of times. The staff is super friendly always checking up on you which is always nice. I love getting the drunken noodles and Curry's here because they always have a great amount of heat to them. Restaurant is cute and cozy inside with a lot of customers calling in orders rather than dining in. I wish they would move closer to Main Street area in town so more people would know about them! You have to go, you will not regret it!!

    Delicious food, although "mild" sometimes is lacking flavor. Love the convenience to the highway and Bethel/Newtown

    I would highly recommend this restaurant if you love Thai food…read more I started with the crab Rangoon and battered shrimp,simply amazing! Finished with a huge bowl of soup was just a delight. I'm from New Jersey so I'll definitely come back next time I visit my sister in Woodbridge CT. The girls that work there were very pleasant and attentive to all our needs.

    It's not often I ever really go into Watertown, especially nowadays. It may be just a quick bus…read moreride from where I live, but at the same time I just don't really find a reason to go there, or really anywhere in Litchfield County for that matter. Today however, that changed. Before I left to go to the Orthodontist in Watertown I got referred to by my dentist, I did a quick browse on Yelp to go ahead and see what would be a good take-out spot in the area. As soon as I did, the most obvious place I could that was open was this little spot. There was a diner in the same plaza as the orthodontist I visited, but they were gonna be closed before I could get out. So ThaiBowL it was (and yes, they capitalize that final L for some reason). Because I did take-out, I didn't go inside. Instead, I had to order through a side window. I was able to take a menu home with me which was nice. Maybe if I decide to go through with the treatment of realigning my jaw I could try some of their pho IF what I got today is any good. Side note, you DO need to ask for utensils, but the lady who served asked for me, so I gladly accepted them so I could eat while I waited for my bus to go back home. So what did I get today that probably would be illegal with braces on you might ask? How about some Crab Rangoon and Volcano Shrimp? And honestly, this is the best Crab Rangoon I've had yet. It's creamy and actually bursts with filling with each one they prepare. It is on the sweet side, so if that ain't your thing then you might decide to skip on these. It comes with plum sauce, something I had thought to be a first whenever I've had crab rangoon. Of course, the last place I went to called them "Crabmeat Cheese Fried Wonton's" and basically added a salt lick into some red sauce, so I'd say this time around was a major improvement. As for the Volcano Shrimp, they're crispy when you get them, but you have to eat them immediately. If not, you're allowing the breading to get soggy quite quickly. But I otherwise liked everything about the dish. The sweet sauce was more sweet than spicy, vegetables were well-cooked, and the shrimp was flavorful. The white rice that came with it was good too, but it doesn't stand out compared to other white rices because, at the end of the day, it's white rice. I'll place this at a 4 for now, but if I go through with my treatment and start coming here more often, my review and maybe my rating will change.

    Stopped by for a late lunch…read more Open floor. No one was there seated, but it was around 2pm on a Friday. We were led to a table against the wall. Waiter was friendly and gave us some time to make our selections. I chose the egg roll, tangerine beef. Hubby chose the orange chicken. I asked the waiter if the soda came in a can. He said yes. We then waited for our meal. He returned quickly with my soda, in a glass with lots of ice. Not what I expected. But I guess I wasn't specific about my drink order. My egg roll was good. Cut decoratively in half at an angle, piping hot. Our food arrived shortly. Both plates were generous and came with white rice. Cut a portion in small pieces to taste with rice. Tasted so good, burned my tongue a little it was so hot. Ate a bit more, and that's when my mouth started burning up! The dish was a little more spicy than I expected. Tried to eat more, but it was too much for me. My hubby on the other hand was in his glory. He Loves heat. The spiciest the better. He tried mine and said it was just as spicy as his, which he loved. So, I just thought we would take mine home for him to enjoy later. I have to say it was good, before I had to cry uncle. So would definitely have to return for another try and let them know I can't take the spiciness. I did notice that the restaurant was busy with takeout orders. So I guess that's their main business. So I wouldn't say this was a cozy place. But the food is good. Lots of parking outside since they're next to a supermarket and liquor store. There weren't any 'lunch' specials, so this was over $50 with tip. By the way, lots to choose from the menu. I only took pictures of some pages.

    We try to go to the Chinese New Year every year and picked this spot based on the 4.7 stars and…read moredescription of "cozy spot" in the restaurant write up. I got the Pho with duck, and my wife got the crispy duck dinner. Both dishes were "meh" at best. Below average. As far as service... it was harried and we were only one of two couples eating in this "NOT so cozy" restaurant. We went at 5:30 expecting to wait because it was small and "cozy" and it was Chinese New year. (1) no problem eating in during dinner hours (2) not a stitch of celebratory anything for Chinese New Year.. not even a place mat. No chinese noodles at the table and there was one continuous plain bench and brown tables (no table cloths) on the opposite side aka cafe style and cafeteria style seats. Hardly "cozy" at all. Overall high expectations, below average experience, ambiance and food.
