“ Ploy Thai offers great service and a welcoming ambiance. Despite being located in a nondescript plaza, the interior is beautifully decorated, giving it the feel of a nicer restaurant. We started with the miso soups and crab rangoons. Both were delicious. The rangoons had a pleasant surprise--a hint of curry sauce inside, which added a flavorful twist. The miso soup was hearty and more elevated than the typical version, making it a perfect way to start the meal. For our entrees, we tried the Panang curry and the crispy duck. The Panang curry was outstanding, and I'd definitely recommend it. The crispy duck, which was heavily promoted around the restaurant, looked great but unfortunately was extremely dry. It didn't meet expectations, especially compared to the rest of the meal. Overall, I highly recommend giving Ploy Thai a try. While the crispy duck was a bit of a letdown, the rest of the experience more than made up for it! Oh, and the Thai iced coffee was fantastic!!! ”
“ This place is so amazing. My curry dish was so delicious. The Thai spicy level was perfect, and very enjoyable for spice lovers like me. The food felt authentic and the interior is very charming and accommodating, we had a large group. Our waitress was very nice and proactive, I think I personally got 6 refills of water and I didn’t have to ask for a single one. This place is a must try. ”
“ Excellent service, food was delicious. We tried the Shrimp Dumplings, Crab Rangoon, Tom Kha (Coconut Soup) as the appetizer. As entrees we tried the Duck Panang and the Thai Garden fried rice with shrimp. 200% recommended ”
“ Amazing Thai food! This is the best Thai food in the area, and the staff are so incredibly accommodating! The inside is so cozy and perfect for dates or even a family dinner. Incredible experience! ”
“ This is by far, the best Thai restaurant around is. It is beautiful and service is great. Food is always fresh and on point. My wife loved the Rama Garden with chicken. That’s their version of a dish with peanut sauce. She is hooked. You won’t regret it here. They even had musical entertainment tonight. ”
“ We love this place and when compared to other Thai restaurants in the area they are the most authentic. Their food is fantastic and does not taste like it's been modified for the American pallet. They offer different levels of spiciness but overall their food quality is amazing. In addition the service is fantastic. If you like Thai food this is a must if you live within 15-20 minutes from this place. The atmosphere is also very authentic and pleasing with a high end touch with its design and cultural relevance. It's like taking you to Thailand. ”
