Super convenient and friendly service. Note that there is no seating inside. The pad see ew with chicken ($12) was maybe a 3.5/5 but it’s a very comforting dish and the good experience as a whole makes this place a 5 for me. Also the plants are so cute!
The pad see ew was okay. It lacked a bit of flavor and dimension that I often find at other Thai restaurants.
However, the prices are great. The portions are a bit small; so it would be nice if they had optional larger sizes for a slightly higher price?
I’d certainly recommend giving Terra Thai a visit. There’s not much indoor seating besides a small makeshift counter with stools. They are definitely a takeout place. The staff and owner is very friendly. I’m sure I’ll be back for the basil chicken over rice.
The flavors of the drunken noodles were amazing! The oil and basil with whatever seasonings used were perfect. Much better than the handful of other Thai places I visited. The tofu is (by default) softer instead of crispy so you may want to mention crispy tofu if that’s your foretaste. You can customize the spice level, I thought medium was perfect and I usually eat spicy foods. The ice cream was also sooo good, it tasted like thai iced tea boba! Go here if you love Thai food!!
You move away and miss it more than you could have ever imagined. You try to find a substitute, but they just don’t make your go-to dish QUITE the same. Something’s missing, something’s off………. Well, I’m sure you can see where this is going, but Terra Thai is my local takeout spot. My life raft. My lighthouse in a storm.
This large Basil Chicken Plate medium spice is essentially keeping me alive at this point, as I have it AT LEAST two times a week. It is a MOUND of carefully seasoned flavorful chicken, a side of white rice, an egg, and broccoli. There is no beating it. It is the equivalent to a home cooked meal and is the perfect post workout meal. It is the sole reason that Terra Thai is my starting PG on my All-NBA Lower East Side restaurants.
We are at the point now when I call in to place my order, Aung, the owner, answers with a “Hi Johnny!!” and it brings a smile to my face every time. I go in and we chop it up, she asks how work is, how my friends are, how life is going, etc. I always give her a hug on the way out…she is essentially my east coast Granny at this point ahaaha…. damn I miss my Granny… Also I’ve become cool with one of the employees in there, shoutout to my guy Yoshi always showin love!
So am I a little biased? Yeah maybe, but you’re off your rocker if you think I would come here as often as I do if that large Basil Chicken Plate didn’t SMACK like it does. I literally price things in Basil Chicken Plates these days… I’ll be out at Flower Shop or Ding-a-Ling and think “Yeah I could buy this drink rn but that’s really a full Basil Chicken Plate at Terra Thai…”
Sometimes you have to go through deep pain in order to appreciate true greatness. You have to wander and be lost in order to know when you’ve found something special. You have to lose that Fire Grilled Chicken Salad from Cafe Rio in order to appreciate the large Basil Chicken Plate from Terra Thai.
Andy Bernard put it better than I ever could when he said “I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good ole days before you’ve actually left them.” Well, I know I’m in the good ole days right now and I’m appreciating every last second. I eat every large Basil Chicken Plate like it’s my last.
THANK YOU TERRA THAI! THANK YOU AUNG, I LOVE YOU!

We ate the basil chicken on rice with an egg, the noodles pad ew with tofu and the soup. We liked everything but the basil rice was our favorite, in my opinion the soup wasn’t as flavorfull as the rest.
Wishing Terra thai a lot of success greetings from Iceland:)
