    Pad Thai
    Katarina L.

    Jersey City is kind of lacking in great Thai spots, or honestly, just Thai spots in general. The craving for pad see ew was too strong to ignore one night so I searched and searched until I found thai plates with great reviews. We made a little thai mezze with pad see ew with shrimp, pad thai with chicken and pineapple fried rice with pineapple. -pad see ew was incredible, 5 stars, wish I could have it every night. The sauce was delicious, the noodles were so yummy and it had a really nice amount of crunchy veggies. And the shrimp were perfectly cooked! -I didn't love the pad thai but it was very much liked by others, so that might be a me preference. -the pineapple fried rice was really tasty, and almost had a curryish taste to it which was different. But the tofu that it came with was almost dehydrated. It was literally crispy on the outside and hallow on the inside. I didn't have more than a bite. Get the pad see ew!

    Drunken Noodles w/Tofu

    I tried Thai Plates recently. I work in the area, and was craving something spicy. I got Drunken Noodles with Tofu. I loved the noodles, it was delicious. It was ready by the time I picked it up. While the noodles were tasty, they could use a little bit more flavor in terms of sauce and heat level. The crispy tofu was also good in the noodles. I saw they had chili oil on tables so if you dine in you can add more heat. Next time, I will ask that on the side, so I can make it spicier as per my taste. They had few tables to dine in. It's more like a take out place. Personally, I am fine with the prices but some of my co-workers find it tad bit on expensive side for lunch. Can't wait to try more dishes.

    This place is newer and it has a nice cozy vibe! Very modern and spaces to sit. We didn't have to wait too long and the food came out fast. We got the pad Thai, green curry, and mango sticky rice!! It was really good and we had leftovers. It was even better the next day! I highly recommend checking this place out!! The plating is so pretty and insta worthy. They also got hand crafted chai and matcha drinks!

    Tried the spicy basil pork with egg. It tasted fine -- salty and satisfying with rice. But honestly, the whole experience felt overpriced and underwhelming. The space is very plain, it doesn't feel worth it.

    I am so excited we have a Thai restaurant in the vicinity!! This place is a few minute walk from the PATH station. The store is very small but cute and clean. There are 4 tables in the restaurant so it's mostly a takeout spot - however 2 tables fit up to 6 people and 2 tables are 2-seaters by the window. The cashier/waiter is very friendly and ordering was quick and easy. Food came out relatively quickly and was very fresh. The kitchen is right behind the counter so you can smell the wok working! We ordered the Spicy Thai Basil with egg ($16.95) and the Pad Thai ($14.95) but added beef and pork to both. We also got a side of tom yum soup ($8.95). Overall the food was really tasty and I asked for spicy on all the dishes -- the Thai pepper kick was so good! The waiter came to us to offer us cups with ice for our Thai tea ($6) and gave us a side of Thai chili pepper powder since he noticed we like it spicy, which was very appreciated. Prices are definitely a little on the higher side, but that is to be expected for the location and cuisine. I would definitely come here again to try their specials and other dishes next time. Highly recommend others to come try!!!

    This area of Jersey City has been a Thai food desert for as long as I've lived here, so its nice to see some new Thai restaurants open recently. Thai Plates is eye-catching with it's bold red and white designed space. I have had a curry and the pad Thai and enjoyed both, perhaps the curry a bit more. For a time they had vegetable spring rolls, but have taken them off the menu for now because they were very labor-intensive to make. And that is exactly why you should eat here, they seem to really care about what they are selling with every Thai Plate.

    This is a cute hole in the wall. the staff is nice and the place has a retro vibe. The large plates just seem like a normal portion. To me, "large" implies shareable, but it's only enough for one person really. I got a small plate and two large plates to share, and this was the perfect amount of food between two people. The papaya salad was tasty and had a lot of layered flavors, but i found the bottom to be really salty. The drunken noodles were exactly what i was looking for. The spicy thai basil was a little spicy but that's a good thing when it comes to thai. The egg was nicely cooked and runny when you cut it open. I enjoyed the flavors but found them to be a bit powerful. I wanted a thai iced tea as dessert but ending up getting it for my meal because i needed more balance overall. The mango sticky rice is good because it's not too sweet and the coconut condensed milk added a layer of flavor that felt right. I enjoyed this spot but it gets a little noisy with all the banging around in the open kitchen at the end of the night. it's still a nice place if you're in the area though.

    Chicken drunken noodle

    This is a solid place for Thai food. My recommendation is to get the udon because it was their favorite and we loved it - super flavorful. I like that it's unfussy and what you want when looking for a casual spot for a good meal. The cashier was friendly and service was good. I was pretty upset when sky Thai closed in downtown jc because we don't have any other good Thai places. Now at least we have this! One note - the drunken noodles weren't the best I've had I think they could improve it by using more sauce and kicking up the spice. But it was still delicious. Also they have an issue with ventilating the smoke in the restaurant so hopefully that's fixed soon.

    Great local Thai spot! The food was delicious! Very clean and cute spot with great service!

    A Decade of Love on a Plate: A Local Favorite That Punches Above Its Weight…read more This place is the definition of a neighborhood gem--the kind you almost want to keep secret, yet can't stop yourself from praising. Cheap and cheerful on the surface, it punches way above its weight class, delivering inventive, clean, Asian-inspired food that's masterfully cooked by clearly skilled hands--and made with real love. I've been coming back year after year for most of this restaurant's 10-year lifespan, and that consistency is no accident. Every dish tastes intentional, thoughtful, and deeply satisfying, with a clear goal: to feed people love on a plate. It's a super veggie/vegan friendly that easily wins over even my "meat and potatoes" husband--who happily cleans his plate every time. In an era where genuine hospitality feels increasingly rare, Perry single-handedly restored my faith that quality service is not extinct. Warm, attentive, and authentically kind, Perry makes every guest feel seen, welcome, and cared for--without pretense or attitude. This is food that nourishes, service that uplifts, and a place that keeps you coming back not just for the flavors, but for how it makes you feel. A true neighborhood treasure.

    Mediocre food and very slow service!…read more This place was a disappointment for what I hoped from a highly rated ramen place in the area. The service was quite slow, almost waited 1 hour for entrees to be brought to the table. It's a small place with limited staff working everything. The food was fairly basic. The fried rice seemed to be bland and below par despite ordering the spicy version. My friend who ordered the ramen liked the soup but the meat was not fully cooked and felt chewy.

Pork w spring rolls on vermicelli ($24) - reasonable enough portion but very overcooked. Should be a staple of any Viet spot so idk what they're doing here Would call them right now but they close at 9.... on a Saturday.... I will update this review if I'm able to reach them during biz hours for a resolution but this is easily the most disappointing meal I've had all year. Save your hard earned money and go to Ela's greek or literally anywhere else on this block, even Dominos. EDIT: Went in next day and spoke to a manager, only mentioned portion size and showed the picture, didn't get a chance to say anything about everything being overcooked. He had clearly heard these complaints about portion size before, because he immediately launched into saying the cut of beef + tendon they use for the rendang yields that as their standard portion size. He refunded the calamari. I still won't be going back and would never recommend this place, but wanted to acknowledge the resolution. Also my husband unfortunately wasn't there to speak to them, but he's been in restaurants for 25 years and knows they served chuck, not a fancy cut...
