Fantastic

by JohnClougherty at Citysearch

This food is amazing. I had the Drunken Noodles and the Spicy Fried Rice as well as the Crab Rangoon and Chicken Spring Rolls. Fresh Vegetables and the perfect amount of spice made this dinner very enjoyable. I will be recommending it to everyone.

Pros: Perfect Spice level. Prompt Service
Cons: No parking

Great service, friendly staff, excellent food

by sidjain at Citysearch

Service at this restaurant is one of the best and quickest I have seen in Boston area. We went as a group and the food came within 15 min. The staff was courteous, was even willing to replace my dish when I was not satisfied with the spice level. We got pad thai, noodle dishes and curry- all excellent and delicious. The portion sizes are also big and sufficient. In the end, the owner/ manager personally came to see if we needed anything and to greet us. I have been to numerous restaurants in Boston area but have not seen this type of service before. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good Thai food and great service.

Pros: Excellent service, great food
Cons: None that was noticeable. Ambience could be more attractive though.

Great Thai Take Out in Charlestown

by johannamama at Citysearch

I've read the other reviews and it has been my experience that take out orders can take a lot longer than expected, especially on busy nights. However, the food is way above average for the price and is located in Charlestown where options for takeout are few to begin with. Eating in can be fun as well, the restaurant is charming in it's simplicity and I love places that offer bookshelves full of travel guides. At the end of the day Chow Thai Cafe is worth a visit. I highly recommend the Tom Kha Kai, Spicy Bamboo Shoots, and the noodle dishes are delicious!
