What People Are Saying About Rod-Dee Thai Cuisine
The Editor
Eric Grossman
Citysearch
The Scene – Some restaurants have broom closets bigger than Rod Dee's front-of-the-house operation. Six mismatched tables are crammed into what should just be a delivery pick-up window. This is self-service all the way; customers browse dozens of colorful photographs depicting Thai dishes that haphazardly line the walls before ordering at the counter. Service is snappy, but it's an adequate trade-off for the food arriving hot and as ordered. – – The Food – Rod Dee serves classic, albeit slightly Americanized, Thai dishes based on curry, noodles or rice and laden with…

Rudest staff ever
by pocoyo at Citysearch
I've never been treated so rudely in my whole life. I will never go there again even if the food is good. It's not worth the price of being openly treated as a dumb. Also they accept cash only but they don't inform you on the phone or on the website. I am so disappointed!

Best Thai food AND best Thai food price in the country!
by jdrudolp at Citysearch
My wife and I recently have moved away from Brookline/New England after living there for 7 years, and hands down the restaurant we miss the most is Rod Dee. Granted there is no parking (we used to just walk down from our Beacon St. apartment), the space inside is best described as a "hole in the wall" (I used to wait outside in my big winter coat as my wife would sneak through the crowd to snatch our take out order), and we used to fight over who would call in the order since the english was "not always so good" (although in 7 years they never got it wrong), this was the tastiest and most inexpensive Thai food we have ever had, period. We have lived all over the country and never have found a place where 6 bucks got you a huge styroform dish of curry, rice, and chicken (I am a 6'5", 215, and a single massaman curry chicken put me down) that was not only inexpensive, but also incredibly tasty (try the massaman extra spicy - my favorite!). We loved the star noodles, pik pow fried rice, garlic chicken, and occasionally even some of the appetizers. We may miss Boston, but we ache for Rod Dee!
- Pros: Best Thai food and Thai food price, hands down
- Cons: No parking, try to avoid eating in (go with take out)

best thai food in boston
by suz18 at Citysearch
Some of the best Thai food in Boston. Authentic, well-prepared, and CHEAP! It doesn't matter that there's little seating or that the seating there is cramped or that you clear your own dishes because the food is amazing and will have you coming back for more! Highly Recommended.
- Pros: Delicious thai food, cheap, take-out
