This restaurant far exceeded my expectations. Our server Chet was an exceptional waiter, kind, informative, and attentive. He was extremely understanding about a food allergy in our party and even got the brand of Thai Tea that they use since someone else at our table enjoyed it so much. The food was absolutely delicious and arrived fairly quickly. We were surprised how huge the fried ice cream turned out to be, it easily fed 3 people and the portion sizes on all of our meals had everyone taking home leftovers. I highly recommend this restaurant and hope I can stop in again soon

We discovered this restaurant just today. The food was absolutely impressive. We are used to ordering scallion pancakes and steamed dumplings and pad thai at a different restaurant we’ve been frequenting for 25 years in another town, however Mai Thai Cuisine’s food is far superior. Unfortunately I forgot to take photos at the beginning of the meal so what you’ve got are photos from the middle of the meal. The service was excellent, the restaurant is nicely decorated and not overdone, and the prices are reasonable. We will definitely be going back.

We googled Asian food and picked this place because my kids and I enjoy Thai food and we’d never been here before. The Mai Thai rice and teriyaki wings were so good, we ordered more of each! The appetite of a 16 y/o boy and 9 y/o girl is huge! The wings were served in a tin lined with paper and some paper; some ended up in my daughter’s mouth when she tried scooping up some of the sauce. The wings could’ve definitely used more sauce; we asked for more on the 2nd order. Thee wings served with slightly stir fried veggies- nice touch! We tried the Golden Bags (fried wontons with cream cheese, cilantro and imitation crab meat)- these were just ok, the kids didn’t care for them. Lots more cream cheese than your regular Crab Rangoons. I thought they were tasty with the sweet and sour sauce, but couldn’t finish the last one (2 was plenty). The steamed Thai dumplings were different (see pic) -they are open on top which makes them great for the thick soy sauce. They are served with (lots of) toasted bits of garlic so beware if you’re not a big garlic fan. I look forward to returning to try some of the entrees. The food we had and all of the food being served, looked and smelled delicious! The service was a bit slow likely due to being low staffed. We only saw 2 women the whole night. Seemed like a lot of locals visit this restaurant; we saw one customer come in with a Valentine’s Day gift for the staff who instantly recognized him. We didn’t have a reservation and showed up at 5:30ish and there were plenty of tables (waited to be seated) and watched the place moderately fill up. The kids give it 1.5 thumbs up. It was pretty good they said.

“Wow! What a gem. I just visited Mai Thai Cuisine of Smithfield, and it was a wonderful experience. The food—which is authentic Thai cuisine, by the way—is incredibly fresh and tastes fantastic. You get good portions for a really great price, making it a fantastic value. Service was quick and friendly. Easily one of the best spots in the area. Highly recommend this location!”

Mai Thai was one of my favorite restaurants, they are usually good with the food quality. But yesterday the way I got my meal was very disappointing. I have ordered chicken Pad Thai noodles and I found raw chicken pieces. I gave them a call and informed about what I found. She was sorry, and offered me the same dish again for no charge including an appetizer of my choice on the house. Unfortunately, I found raw chicken pieces again. So, I thought there is no point in informing again. Hence am posting this review. I don’t know if they used same chopping board for chicken and peanuts or same gloves. It’s absolutely their responsibility to maintain hygiene. Especially in current situation i cannot afford to get sick.
Response for owners reply:
Hi,
Firstly, I know the difference between turnip and a chicken and this is not first time for me to eat padthai. I explained to you in person that when I cooked the raw meet which I found is the dish, and it turned white, and it’s chicken. Though you gave me a second dish it does change the facts of what I found. I expected that you would check before giving me second time. If you still feel it’s turnip, please refer the images I have provided in my initial review. Anyways, I am not interested in arguing, I usually like to mention what I feel and find in my reviews. Happy 5th anniversary and good luck.

The restaurant itself looks like a tiny hole in the wall from outside, but inside is warm and inviting. The menu was extensive, but everything my group ordered came out perfect. To top it off, the service was fantastic. The waitress managed our huge table with ease, all our orders were correct and anything we needed was provided instantly to our table. I’ll definitely be coming back here.

Very disappointed with my visit today. Went here for the first time in two years and it’s nothing like it was. First they gave me the wrong order after ordering the beef teriyaki, so they apologized and sent it back. When they brought out the correct order (the beef teriyaki) there was about seven little pieces of beef in it. Mind you, this is a $20 entree. So I paid $20 for a dish with seven tiny pieces of meat in it. After that, they gave me the wrong persons receipt and I had to tell them it wasn’t mine. Overall, very unhappy with their service. 0/10.
