This establishment deserves all the plaudits it has received.
The crispy duck salad was something out of this world, can't wait to go back and devour it again.
5 out of 5 for the food they serve. 5 stars for the servers and another 5 for the atmosphere. Will be back soon. Highly recommended.

Pad see ew was good, leans saltier than most pad see ews I’ve tried but definitely the best out of what we had, Beef soup was bland and beef was tough. The red curry was pretty good. Service is so kind, and vibe is cute:) take out is fast!
HIGHLY recommend this restaurant if you're downtown and want some awesome Thai food!!! My partner and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this restaurant!!! Definitely the BEST Thai restaurant in Philadelphia, but also the best I've ever tried!! Before moving away from Center City (closer to the Philly suburbs), we would go there *every* weekend! The food is really tasty and the service is always great!
I personally LOVE their Shrimp and Crab Rolls as well as their Pad Thai, but the other dishes I've tried are really good too! My partner is also a fan of all of their curries, and is very pleased by their Thai Iced Tea, because it is surprisingly not too sweet!

I went with a friend to enjoy some Thai cuisine in the area and we enjoyed ourselves! The food was very delicious (although the portion size for the grilled Lamb lollipops were very small). It definitely runs on the spicier side, so that is worth keeping in mind! I got the green curry and my friend got the red curry and both of them were delicious. There was also a matcha flavored dessert that worked well enough to share.
This place was a terrific experience. My gf and I ordered six dishes and every single one of them was delicious. The summer rolls and the shrimp and crab rolls we loved. The crispy duck salad was refreshing, unique, and the duck was plentiful. The BBQ baby back ribs were phenomenal; tender and juicy on every bite. The shrimp pad thai was classic and the beef drunken noodles was full of heart. To top it off we had mango sticky rice for dessert which provided that perfect sweet end. The staff was incredible and the vibes were great. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their time here and so did we! All in all, great experience and I would definitely come back!
As a regular, my personal recommendation from this list is JJ Thai Cuisine in the charming Rittenhouse area of Philadelphia. Hands-down.
JJ isn’t your ordinary Thai restaurant. French inspired, each dish is skillfully and exquisitely prepared with the finest and freshest ingredients — and a blend of flavors that their talented chefs have perfected for the ultimate taste bud experience. I am blown away by how uniquely flavorful each dish has been. Truly, I’ve loved every single dish I’ve tried.
I ate my first scallops at JJ. Why? Because I knew they’d be cooked and flavored to perfection! 😋👌🏼
The food speaks (rather… tastes) for itself, of course. But on top of the fine-dining Thai dishes, you can enjoy them in a peaceful, romantic, cozy environment. The servers and managers are top-notch — as friendly and welcoming as can be (Thailand is the ‘Land of Smiles’, after all), and on top of your every need. I’m continuously amazed and impressed by how fast, efficient and diligent every staff member has been. If you know Thai culture, you know how much happiness and pride Thai people get from seeing you enjoy their cuisine.
And, they welcome you to enjoy your meal with your favorite bottle(s) of wine. BYOB 😊

I really love this place. This was my 2nd dining experience here and they didn't disappoint. The service is thorough, friendly and informative. Perfectly sized restaurant and fills up quickly. The food quality makes every bite a delightful culinary experience.
Pictured are the courses I ate: Duck Ravioli, Gang Pet Ped Yang (w/o the pineapple slice due to allergy and poached pear dessert. There was more than enough duck to finish the rest for breakfast the next morning. Well seasoned, great kick and crispy duck adding texture to the duck fat. DELICIOUS!
Go, you won't regret it. The staff adds to the experience. Remember it's byob and I'd suggest calling to reserve a table.

Delicious Pad Thai and Green Curry. Really lovely place with a relaxed vibe. Great portions and the food was some of the best Thai I’ve tasted. The Pad Thai was the perfect balance of flavours, with a great amount of peanut too. We also had the chicken sate which was equally great.
To finish we had the mango sticky rice, but this was only OK. Everything else was phenomenal though so totally forgiven :) will definitely be back and was good value for money!
