Went here for an introduction dinner. The wait wasn't long initially but as they filled up the service was slower and slower, I'm not upset about it, just seemed as though the gentleman could've used 1 more support person out there as the evening progressed. I started my meal with the vegetable spring rolls, nothing crazy, just standard veggie spring rolls. I had a Thai iced tea that I unfortunately did not find enjoyable. I've had Thai tea from other Thai restaurants and tea shops, this one just tasted a bit off for me. For my entree had drunken noodles with salmon, yes salmon. It was actually really good, I wanted to try something new and luckily they hit the mark, the portions were also good. (Picture didn't save) We had a corner table with good lighting. It's a small place but also decently sized at the same time, enough so that you can enjoy your own conversations. read more

Nice neighborhood BYOB spot and good for takeout. Have ordered here a few times but forget to review. They change up the menu frequently so it's worth checking out occasionally to see if there's something new you want to try. There are classic Thai / Asian fusion appetizers and entree dishes. Also, some standard American fare options as well, so good for everyone in the family. They do have some tasty dessert options. Thanks read more

Disappointing and a waste of money. I got the thai wings & Korean wings, both were over breaded and the taste was average at best.

Great food, great experience, all at a great price! Enjoyed a nice meal while watching a storm roll in. Will be coming back for sure :)

I come to Trio a lot. It's very convenient to where I live - and it smells great every time I walk/bike by. I figured it's time to update my review bc I really do like coming here. My fav meal here is the drunken pumpkin - but they generally only have it in October. Sometimes they have a homemade pastrami drunken noodles special - which is also a fave of mine - yum!!! I also absolutely love the Khao Soi. When I went this weekend I got the red curry salmon and it did not disappoint! I will def get this again. My boyfriend usually tries one of the daily specials or a steak. Everything he has ordered has been awesome too. We like that they have a lot of fusion meals to try on the daily specials. They also have awesome ice cream but I usually don't get that unless it is really warm out. read more

Great Thai place in Fairmount. I've always enjoyed my meals from here. Definitely recommend!

Everything is delicious that I've ordered so far. Pad Thai, drunken noodles, spring rolls that are as big as your head, a bananas foster spring roll special that was amazeballs. The order is always ready fast, the owners seem friendly and they're BYOB. read more

Reliably good food from a neighborhood mainstay. Though not something that jumps to mind for Pan Asian bistro, the slow cooked house ribs are always delicious. Always on our Fairmount delivery service list. read more

My friends and I were stumbling around the Fairmount park area, unfamiliar with what to get and we happened to come across Trio. The server welcomed us and accommodated our party of 5 easily. The atmosphere was quaint and overall clean, the bathrooms are inside the hotel next door and a little out of the way, but no biggie! The food was amazing! We all ordered different things and sampled one another's and honestly there was nothing I had that I didn't like. We started with the crab dumplings and chicken satay both of which tasted fresh and flavorful, the peanut sauce also complimented well with everything we dipped it in. The noodles were soft and full of spice as well and my chicken was tender throughout each bite. I was very surprised at how inexpensive everything was and that really satisfied me as well considering the amount of food we got. I can't wait to come back and bring more friends. read more

hi Mike I increased it a star because the red curry was much much better then the pineapple chicken fried rice which was very greasy and bland..... this is my honest opinion even if it's not what you love to hear I hope you appreciate the review.... And my edit read more

I've been here many times with company and alone. Sometimes, I have a craving for Thai food and this is the closest spot to walk to. It's not terrible food but surely it could use an upgrade. First time here, I was shock to see a white guy cooking Thai food. I tried to not judgmental but couldn't help to wonder. Some of dishes I had were a bit salty for me and they don't give enough rice. I had to ask for more. The Thai tea, I had better. The sticky rice mango dish was far from good. However, the restaurant tried to be authentic and I see it from the menu choices. One of the things I had there that I thought was really good was the stir fry string beans, which was a side dish. It would be nice to have this as a main dish but then it's leaning more towards Chinese food. read more

I eat here a lot. I can get two meals out of the one order, usually. The Thai Basil stir fry with chicken is a bit of a surprise sometimes because they only use the vegetables that are fresh at the time. I often ask for extra rice and split one order with someone. Great take out, for sure read more

Special COVID review update alert. Trio has been a go-to for sometime, but excelled in a recent COVID delivery in all categories. Keep an eye on their specials. You SHOULD be ordering the Drunken Noodles with pastrami if you like drunken noodles and pastrami. They make their own pastrami and it goes darn well in this staple dish. Their ratatouille is also chock full of fresh veggies and seasoned, marinated with a pan-Asian twist. Delivery was quick, and they followed the contact-free instructions. Trio is a must- have on your COVID delivery list and a mainstay on your everyday list. read more

Trio was okay. I can't say id be back because nothing i had really stuck with me. We decided to try out the appetizers. So when the waitress came (who was very nice btw) we said we wanted the beggars pouches, vegetable samosas and the pancetta spring rolls. We waited a while and we were the only people in there. While we waited i sipped on my Thai iced tea which was very bitter. The food finally came and we were missing the pancetta rolls and she brought us seafood dumplings instead. We weren't upset we decided to try them anyway. (Even though she should have said something). The seafood dumplings were gross, slimy and mushy. the beggars pouches were delicious and I've had better vegetable samosa. After we ate everything we weren't all that satisfied. So if i happen to go to the museum again maybe ill try an entree but i really wasn't impressed. The fact that no one was there should have been a sign. read more

Trio - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Got the drunken noodles with pumpkin because it's that season. I like that you can pick spice levels. The food was good, just not the best Thai I've had. It's also really expensive for what it is but I understand restaurants are struggling. Glad they used paper packaging though. I'd come back based on how close it is to our house, quick turnaround, and nice staff. read more

This is based on a my first and only delivery service from here. First off the delivery took 30 minutes more than the anticipated estimate. Placed order at 5:15pm, confirmation stated around 6:15pm, it was delivered at 6:30pm without a call to notify us. Second off, the noodles are just OK -- and priced at $13 ( with delivery comes to $17) it's not something I'd get again. It's not terribly authentic -- they use American broccoli and eggplant in the dish.. and as some of you may know it's traditionally made with Chinese broccoli but of course, never with eggplant that is kind of an odd addition. It's also listed as " crispy tofu" and let me tell you that was not crispy tofu.. it was soggy.. The food was pretty okay, but nothing that blew my socks off to make the money worth it. I hate to say it, but it tastes like your average corner store $5-6 Americanized stir fry which I'm not a fan of. Was looking forward to this place, but unfortunately will not be a repeat customer. read more

Trio - $13 Pad see ew Drunken noodled veggie and tofu. Mediocre at best.. - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Finally! After a disappointing experience a year ago, we decided to try again. It was like old times, the owner was visible, the place was nicer and clean, the food was good. Our waiter was nice and tentative. The dumplings were amazing as usual, chicken sate was good with two sauces - but 'chicken Pad Thai' wasn't great as expected, how can a Thai restaurant mess up pad Thai(?) who is cooking ?it was red and taste like catchup. Overall, we were happy and satisfied. We will be back. read more

I placed an online order for shrimp pad thai to be picked up. When I went to the restaurant, the host told me he had no order for me, he checked around and again said there was no order. Another worker overheard and brought chicken pad thai out for me then said it was shrimp pad thai, the host double checked and confirmed it was shrimp pad thai. You can probably guess where this is going, I get home and there's NO shrimp. So annoying! The shrimpless pad thai was meh, just ok. Don't think I'll order again. read more

Bulgolgi was killer in flavor and texture. Kimchi had a good crunch and great flavor as well. Staff was nice and food was ready pretty fast.

Delicious food! Great service and perfect little hidden gem! Tried it back in 2019 and again NYE and it was delicious!! Will be going back more frequently! read more

Love this place! The shrimP Pad tai I is amazing as well As the vege somosas. Highly recommend this place for take out or staying in. Plus it is a byob! read more

While the special of chicken wings was amazing, my seafood pot's noodles had sections with a burned taste. The pad Thai was just avg compared to others we have had. While I think perhaps I just got unlucky on the seafood pot, your experience muay be better. read more

Where do I begin with this place?! This is the best Thai restaurant in the city! Hands down! The food is unbelievably amazing. Appetizers like samosas, seafood dumplings, fried calamari, chicken satay & spring rolls are all great options that are very delicious & authentic. But their beggars pouches might be one of my favorite appetizers in the entire city! Their drunken noodle is the best one I've ever had from any Thai restaurant I've ever visited. But you definitely can't go wrong with other delectable dishes like the kung pao, pad see ew, Thai basil chicken, or the Thai fried rice. Their pad Thai is the best in the city in my opinion as well. & their Thai curry is unbelievably delicious, no matter which option you select(green, red or yellow). I prefer the green but I definitely enjoyed the others a whole lot. The crispy duck dish is top tier & paired with an ever changing sauce that never disappoints. All of their sauces are made in house & are ridiculously flavorful. Best peanut sauce & Thai chili sauces I've ever tried. & the service their is top tier. The last time I was there I waited on by Tevin! He was probably the best waiter I've ever had-nice, attentive, sweet & unbelievably friendly. & everything I had the last time I went was so delicious it made me regret moving away from that area of the city. I kept taking bites even after I knew I was full. I couldn't help it! The deserts were even better than they're appetizers & entrees. Most deserts are made in house by one of the owners, Mike, who may be one of the best desert chefs in the city! & the other owner, Van Chau, may be the nicest person in the world. If you want to eat amazing food, support a local business & be around great people I highly recommend this place. read more

We ordered three Drunken Noodles and a soup. The food was was mediocre, lets proceed and focus on everything else for now, okay?! Our waiter, who I'm reluctance to give out his name, did not comprehend that one of us wanted a soup, and thats all what she wanted for dinner. He kept asking " And for you, just the soup?" like FOUR times. I'm not even kidding you! "Only the soup", "just the soup"," just to make sure, you only ordered soup." It didn't take long time for us to got our Three Drunken Noodles ( With chicken, duck and jumbo shrimps.) She didn't get her soup yet. At that point I wasn't sure if he did it in purpose to be funny, or he really forgot. One of the people in my group has a really low tolerance for spicy foods. He asked the waiter about the heat level in his dish to make sure it was the right for him or to even lower it for him. His Duck Drunken Noodles was so spicy he couldn't eat it. Our water glasses were not filled unless we asked for refill, which took forever. We even asked for a water carafe to make our life easier. The waiter didn't know what a "carafe " was. So we asked for a "pitcher" which came after we asked him for the second time. Prior to ordering, we asked the waiter if we can get separate check, since we were carrying only cards. The waiter said of course, it won't be a problem. Well, it was. The waiter, brought us the bill before even asking if we need anything else, some dessert for example. Anyway the bill was NOT separated!!! He said he will figure it out. 10 minutes later, he came to pickup our payment. Another 10 minutes before he came again, and asked us to go to the cashier and tell him what we got and pay it over there. Convenient?!! I'm giving Trio two stars because my shrimps drunken noodles dish was okauish. Not delicious, nor horrible, just good. And I LOVE Thai food. Once overheard" most supermodels are ...." I prefer to use not very smart. Two Yelps. read more

Trio is pretty tasty. First, follow the advice of your fellow Yelpers and SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT. I had the pleasure of consuming a slice of pumpkin cheesecake that tasted more like pumpkin (but not pie) and less like the abomination of sugar and cheese you find elsewhere. Second, the tofu in the Tofu with Ginger is really crispy without being overly oily, but do ask for extra vegetables...otherwise you're likely to get a plate with some ginger and fried tofu and some errant vegetables seeking shelter under a pile of tofu triangles. Third, the vegetables and shrimp in the curry were crispy and had that sort of "farm-to-the-table" freshness...too bad everything was drowned in overly coconut milked curry sauce. read more

Trio - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

See all

Trio may be Philadelphia's best kept secret. In fact, I'm hesitating to write anything more about the amazing experience my boyfriend and I had over this past weekend. BACKGROUND: As if Trio's food wasn't stand-alone awesome enough, they had donated a gift certificate to a raffle last year for "The Dude Hates Cancer" for the Leukemia Society's grand prize. Lucky me, I had won the raffle and was able to enjoy brunch here before we went off to the Art Museum. BRUNCH: My boyfriend and I really weren't expecting much to be honest. I mean, how could a place that specializes in Thai food be that good in making brunch food? Umm...boy I was wrong. My boyfriend had gotten a side of thick-cut bacon coated with some kind of delicious a honey glaze. A "religious experience," he proclaimed. It all could have stopped there, but it didn't. This glorious bacon accompanied a Crab Cake, Quail Egg on Prosciutto dish. The crab cake was done beautifully. Not overburdened by breadcrumbs. You could really taste the beauty of the crab meat. The side of "house fries" this dish came with were legit potatoes that were kind of like potato chips. These potatoes were neither French Fries nor Potato Chips. Totally a "discuss amongst yourselves" moment. This life-changing experience didn't just stop there. It continued on with the most mouth-watering blueberry and ricotta pancakes that have ever touched my lips. I hate using the word moist *shivers*, but there really is no other way to describe this gooey delicious party going on in my mouth. SERVICE: Our waiter was wonderful and spent some time talking to me and my boyfriend about the area (as we're both from out-of-town). He gave us advice on where to get a bottle of wine on a Sunday. And, our way out the Chef even popped out to greet us (totally unexpected) and wished us a great trip to the Art Museum (wait how did he know?). Trio, I heart you. My boyfriend and I went to numerous "Best Thing I Ever Ate" and Iron Chef restaurants on this trip, and dammit, you stand up as the clear winner. I love you forever, Colleen. read more

Trio - CrabCakes, Quail Eggs, Yummy Potatos, Bacon and Ricotta Blueberry Pancakes - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

In the mood for Thai takeout, the GF and I decided to check out Trio. Located in the Fairmount area, the praise-worthy reviews appear to be on point. Beggar's Pouches [$9] Crisp dumplings filled with minced crab, shrimp, sweet chili sauce We decided to try the beggar's pouches, which were beautifully hand-wrapped. Despite this being takeout, the pouches retained their texture. Crunchy on the outside and filled with well-seasoned minced crab and shrimp, these were a great starter. Take it all in one bite though or you might have pieces all of your plate - or your shirt. Drunken Noodles [$13] Crispy tofu, vegetables, wok-seared wide-cut rice noodles, broccoli, egg, onions, bell peppers, Thai basil The drunken noodles had good chew and the bits of tofu, broccoli, carrots, peapods, peppers, onions, and egg helped to create a nice bite that wasn't too spicy. Salty, sweet, savory, and slightly sour - the Thai flavors were all there. Pineapple Fried Rice [$12] with Chicken [+ $1] Jasmine rice, cashews, pineapple chunks, Madras curry powder The GF was itching to try the pineapple fried rice, which had a nice creamy, gluttonous texture to each bite, which was studded with bits of fresh veggies, cashes, and tomatoes. Despite the creamy texture of each bite, you could still make out the bite of each grain and the bits of chicken were plentiful and juicy. Trio may be our new go-to Thai place and I'm looking forward to trying some of their more authentic dishes - as well as some pad thai, natch. Trio is also BYO - so head on over with a bottle of vino and you won't be disappointed! read more

Was not familiar with this restaurant until this weekend. AWESOME!!! Food was great, Service was great, and you could not beat the price. also ITS a BYO!!!! HOLLA! One app, 4 entrees, and 4 desserts (save room, you'll definitely enjoy!!) cost us a whopping $100. FANTASTIC! read more

A gf raved about Trio to me and I was up to try it. I do like thai food in general. Looking at the website the menu didn't have a ton of options that peaked my interest. I ended up ordering the beggars pouches and the sweet corn fritters. The beggars pouches didn't agree well with me after i started eating the 2nd one. Maybe it was the sauce it came with. I preferred the corn fritters but I couldn't tolerate that too much either- I did prefer the sauce of this though. I think it was probably more because they were fried. Staying away from the usual, i avoided the pad thai. Not interested in the salmon or anything with chicken. The seafood hot pot looked interested but I was trying to stay within budget. I ended up getting the crispy tofu ginger dish. It wasn't that bad actually. I enjoyed the tofu a lot. Which it had more sauce though. I ate with the white rice it came with. The dish was not WOW'ing in any way. I can't say I'd go back to this place. It's not a bad place, just not noteworthy. If I lived close by i may try another item on the menu. read more

I have to say- Trio is literally a completely different restaurant when dining in as opposed to getting delivery. My party of 4 walked over last night and picked up beer on our way (yay for BYO!). There was a man standing outside the "to-go entrance" and we all thought he was just some guy waiting for his food... until he turned out to be the host and led us to our table. Maybe he was just standing outside because it was a nice night? We were seated upstairs at a private little table, which was really great. Our server was Victoria and she was extremely warm and very helpful- I would give the service 5 stars. After reading reviews, we got the beggars pouches appetizer. The main flaw with this meal was that it took over 30 minutes for these to come out. Our server apologized and said there had been a large party downstairs that had their order in right before us. We weren't too upset because there were a couple drunk girls in the restaurant that were hilarious. It was seriously like dinner and a show listening to their commentary, and they ended up giving us their half-full bottle of wine when they left. Score! I just hope they didn't drive home... After the appetizer, it took still a little longer for the entrees to come out. My boyfriend and I split the pad woonsen glass noodles with tofu and the fried rice with lemongrass meatballs. I was too worried to try the pad thai again after how lackluster it was the last time. The glass noodles had tons more fresh veggies than before and the flavors were really good in both dishes. It is a tad pricy still, and I will probably never order delivery from here again. But, for a dine-in neighborhood BYOB, I give it my seal of approval! read more

I would have given 5 stars if only the service was good. I visited with my family on Friday, August 14 and while it was not so crowded the service wasn't great at all. We kept waiting for the server and finally lost the patience and had to go walk towards server and ask him to take our order. Even after taking the order, it took forever for him to just come and say that they were out of ice tea. Food again took forever to come. Food came then plates dint, plates came then fork dint. So ya was very disappointed with service. However Thai veg basil fried rice and drunken noodles were very delicious. Food was awesome no doubt but again Thai tea was awful. And the server also told not sure why the chef made it the way it was. I would debate if I should go or not again. read more

Had my birthday dinner here back in November and was extremely happy with how it turned out! We were seated at a long table on the first floor. It's the first time I've ever seen anyone dining downstairs, but worked out perfectly for our party of 13. I had called ahead of time and arranged to do the family style dinner package. For $25 per person, you get an assortment of appetizers, 4 different entrees, and dessert for everyone to share. They did a great job attending to our group and everything was delicious, as usual. I definitely recommend Trio for group dinners! read more

Got the Khao Soi and the Green Curry for takeout. Both were out of this world. Great restaurant in a lovely neighborhood. Just found my new fave Thai restaurant. read more

I've walked by this place a couple times and so I decided to give it a try as I wanted Thai food but did not want to leave for it. I ordered a dish that was a coconut sauce with salmon. The dish itself was not bad. However, I felt a little ripped off as there was a lot more vegetables than salmon. This reminded me of experiences on some Chinese take out spots where the dish was only some duck and a lot of filler to make the dish larger. The price was ok but the smaller portion of salmon made it feel pricey for what I got. It definitely tasted great but this aspect left me with feeling unfulfilled. This is a restaurant located at the bottom retail space of a large apartment complex. It does not have its own bathroom and so you will need to a solid walk down the long lobby to the opposite end to use a grimey bathroom. Just something to note about convenience, this is not so convenient (or clean for the men's room) read more

food is delicious, staff is very helpful and the byo makes the evening an absolute delight
