Had a wonderful dinner at Mae King Thai in New Britain. Very friendly and welcoming staff and atmosphere. We had: Yellow curry with chicken & a mango salmon special that was to die for! Wonderful Thai Iced Coffee that was delicious and a nice size. Everything was great and I would definitely recommend and I’ll be back. Thank you

I’ve been coming here as a kid and I’ve moved away but I swear this Thai restaurant is the best I’ve ever had. I love their panang curry it has crispy vegetables that are amazing and no other restaurant does it this way. I usually dislike drunken noodles but their texture is amazing. I’ve also done the panang fried rice with crispy chicken and that is one of my favs. My family will usually do pineapple fried rice as an appetizer and it’s also amazing. I think there’s really nothing we had here that wasn’t great or impressive. It truly is a treat.

Absolutely perfect place. Ouma was such a friendly hostess, (and a great conversationalist as well!) We got the Crispy Lemongrass Chicken, the Summer Roll, and I got the Mae Kong Noodle with beef. All three dishes looked great, tasted fantastic, and weren’t skimped on the portion sizes! The Mango Sticky Rice dessert is absolutely delicious as well, and everything we ate felt real and authentic. I will definitely be coming back for take out and to eat in!

The place is small but nice, the food is good and the service is good. Thai pai 51 enough for 2 people. Crispy chicken 71 good but a little too fried. The 2 time we came I ordered yellow curry and I loved it, really good. The 3 time I came there I tried tofu soup and I think the number 70 ram pram something like that I don’t remember the name it was with peanut butter sauce and my husband tried red curry and it was good

Service with a wonderful smile and it only got better. Huge selection of appetizers and main dishes along with a nice selection of desserts. Our waitress was very attentive and always smiling. The dishes we had were made with fresh meats or seafood and vegetables and the sauces were full of flavor. Their menu is available on their website so check it out. We’re fairly new to the area so thanks to Groupon we found this place and we’re glad that we did as we will certainly be back.

I been to many Thai restaurants and this is the worst pad Thai I ever had. Extremely greasy and beef tastes questionable. It seems like a place where you can get authentic Thai food but it’s actually not.

I guess giving a one star will require some explanation.
First, let’s begin with the food… I didn’t have high expectations going in to the place, but the food was not great. There is no balance in flavors; Tom Yum soup was just too sour, Pad Thai was just too sweet, and Beef with String Beans was overwhelmingly too salty. It was cooked by just throwing random flavors with no thought and technique. I am not a professional, but when food steps into the realm of poor quality… something needs to be addressed.

Okay, so the service. I accept the fact that service is not going to be amazing, but when it becomes egotistical then you know nothing you say will matter. And it did not. I did not complain about the food nor about anything else. I just simply pointed out that there was a piece of gray/white hair on the food. She did not want to acknowledge it at all. Continued to say it was a part of a bean sprout, and then later became a piece of a banana leaf… and also said all Asians have Black hair -_-. If she would have accepted the fact that there was a piece of hair, I would have continued “eating” it and have nothing else to say.

And then to top it off… She slaps on a 18% gratuity with zero explanation. At that point I was just trying to run as fast as I can out the door.

Good luck to those that are willing to try it. If it is a hit and miss experience, I definitely missed by Suns away.

The best Thai food I’ve ever had. Wow, I tried some of the specials, the gyoza dumpling soup and the Panang fried rice with crispy chicken. Wow, I was blown away by the flavors. The service was excellent, it is a small restaurant that seems to do more takeout than dine in, but we really enjoyed our dine in experience. We got some great recommendations from our waitress. Highly recommend trying, we will be repeat customers for sure.

It’s never easy to give a bad review but here we go. We love Thai food and were we excited to discover this place.

FYI parking is metered.
Menu just had one price, didn’t specify lunch or dinner menu or different pricing. We ordered iced tea ($3), 30 spicy and sour Tom yum Khoong (6.95), 51 pad thai with beef (8.95), 69 pad prik khing stir fry (8.95). Around $28.

Ice tea was good. Little did we know that’s the only thing that’s good we tried. Spicy and sour soup is all sour, could not finish even half and we like sour. Pad Thai with beef, happy with the portion, very sweet. Pad prik khing stir fry was uh… let’s just say salty salty salty. Each bite had to be gulped with rice, iced tea, or maybe that sour soup. All the flavors were very skewed lol pad thai so sweet, soup so sour, stir fry so sour. Iced tea is good, no complaints.

Things really hit the fan when I found a piece of blondish white hair in my pad thai. Oh no. I dislike confrontation but felt like I should let them know at least. Stared at it and definitely convinced that it’s hair despite hoping that it’s not so I can make the best out of the not so great meal. The lady, who I think is the owner denied that it’s hair, and said it’s part of a bean sprout or part of banana leaf.

After eating, we got the bill, with tax around $30. When presenting groupon, she said we can’t use it because we didn’t show it when we arrived and it’s only for dinner, and menu we got was lunch prices. She said we need to pay regularly for this time because it was lunch, and then come back again next time with Groupon for dinner. Speechless. We asked if she can increase the prices to dinner prices in order for us to use Groupon. She said just for this one time.

Speechless again when she gave us the new bill. Instead of the $30, the bill is about $38 and then she added a mandatory 18% tip, so even with Groupon of $25, we had to pay another $20 ish. Realizing that if we didn’t have Groupon, we could have paid $30 for lunch or $45 for dinner for that meal?

Didn’t even bother asking, why did she add a mandatory 18% tip on our bill? Is this standard for Groupon customers? I understand if it’s a large party but it was just two of us. Is that even legal? Lol I just wanted to be out of the place. Peace out and won’t be back. Guess we still have yet to find a favorite Thai place locally in CT.
