Maenaam Thai Restaurant

Easily the best food we ate in Amsterdam. Really nice family run restaurant with fantastic food. I think they tone down the spice for the Dutch locals, but just ask for dry chili or chili paste and they’ll bring you their grandma’s original recipe

The food was good, but the service was very bad. Some dishes were delicious, and some were greasy.

I'm still searching for the best Pad Thai of Amsterdam, and so far, Maenaam has provided the best one. However, my search continues.

When I went to Thailand, I discovered the delicious flavor of authentic Pad Thai. I've visited several Thai restaurants in the Amsterdam area, and all of them have either been too bland or too sweet. You need the perfect mix of sweet and salty (and spicy) to have a good Pad Thai.

I almost gave up on my search for the best Pad Thai of Amsterdam until one day I googled "authentic Thai food Amsterdam," and this place came up.

The food is the closest of what I have tasted so far in Amsterdam, but I'm still not satisfied. They did not serve dry chili with the Pad Thai as is custom in Thailand, and the flavor wasn't completely what I was looking for. However, if I still can not find what I am looking for, I can at least come here for a decent Pad Thai that is not too sweet, nor too bland.

Wauw ! If you want to eat good and affordable Thai food this is the spot!! It’s a small restaurant with about 10 table inside and 4 outside.
Reservations is highly recommended

Definitely one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve tried in Europe, tastes are very authentic🌟 The staff were very nice and accommodating! Portions are very generous and they’re nice enough to adjust the spiciness levels of some dishes depending on your preference. Recommending the SHRIMP PAD THAI 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

This was my second time trying this restaurant, and the food was just as delicious as the first time! The service was a lot better, too. Great Thai food, excellent flavours, all dishes worth a try! And the beautiful flower garnish that comes with each main dish is a nice touch!

Tasty Thai food, nice staff which was open minded to make changes for us in the dishes.

Located in a central location so it easy to come by.

Recommended for the Thai cuisine lovers.

Jan-2023: Cozy Thai restaurant in a great location. Had Tom yum soup - which while the soup wasn't substantial, tasted good, spicy, and had copious amounts of fresh chicken, and mushrooms. Equally good was the fish kraprao. While I thought the fish would be stir fried, it was three large pieces of fried fish on top of a spicy medley of long beans and basil. Very good. Panang chicken was also on point, once again with quite a bit of chicken, slightly leaning towards sweeter side. Had a few shots of Sangsom, a light cognac like spirit from Thailand.
