I was in the neighborhood and my stomach was growling. I opened Yelp and found this gem of a place. Who knew? A Thai Diner!
How innovative.
The atmosphere was quaint, quiet, serene. The ambience is very uniquely Thai the moment you walk through the door.
The greeter (who I assumed) is the owner was friendly and welcoming.
The menu was well conceived and presented.
The order process was quick.
Mine was a take out.
It was quick as well.
I had the appetizer platter/sampler for 2. Everything was delicious albeit the chicken skewers were on the dry side (white meat). The peanut sauce definitely helped.
The fish was done to perfection.
Everything was seasoned just right.
Parking can be a bit dicey depending where you’re coming from since it’s a busy street. Just be careful parking and merging.
Noise level is dependent on time or other patrons I guess, while I was there and waiting, patrons a table over is a bit loud so I can definitely hear him talk like I was with the 2 of them.
Overall, I am definitely coming back and try other food in the menu. It’s a bit pricey with all the tariffs but worth it.

I love this Thai restaurant it is delicious. Food is hot, fresh, fast & consistent. I typically get drunken noodles Kee Mao. Tried the fried ice cream was different and tasty enough to share . They have great lunch specials too.

The food was very delicious, and spice levels not subtle. Mild is spicy, so beware. I like spicy, got medium, and it was perfect. The right amounts of sweet and spice with good use of sesame oil.accommodate. the calamari was tender and fried just right with a soft batter. If you know the location, its an old diner redone to various restaurants through the years. Last few have all been Thai restaurants. I think this is 4th different once since the early 2000’s. This one very close to the original Thai that was there. Service was okay, came over to ask how things were but didnt refill the water carafe that’s were at the table. Place is not big, so when they are busy, parties of 8 or more will be hard to accomodate.

This Thai restaurant was very delicious and authentic. The dishes were all great quality and so fresh. They offer gluten free accommodations. I’ve been to many Thai restaurants and I will definitely return back here.

From one visit, I can say I enjoyed the flavors in their Thai food!

I usually like having the pad krapow (minced chicken with basil) dishes. It’s my first visit here since the restaurant changed ownership from the previous Thailand Restaurant.

Flavors and textures were all better than usual! I only wish I had slightly more rice which is a personal preference.

Note that I tried Medium spiciness, and their menu levels go all the way up to Thai spicy. I paid over $20 for one entree which seems to be standard for pricing lately.

This place was Thailand restaurant for years, recently changed to Monkey Thai Diner and new management. The food we had was excellent, better than nearby Splash of Thai and Maya restaurants, imo.. the steamed dumplings were very tasty as was my Kee Mao (aka drunken noodles) and my wife loved her Thai Basil noodles.. very highly recommend

Had an amazing experience here today. Jack the manager was very accommodating and just all around lovely. Food came out very quickly and everything was delicious. Highly recommend the curry puffs. Apparently under new management so id suggest giving it a try.

Really delicious! I was sad when the original Thai Diner closed, but very happy to learn Monkey Thai is an excellent successor!

The noodle dishes are all fabulous – the see ew has a really nice wok hei flavor and the pad thai tofu has a great texture.

Curries are great and on the spicy side- would order mild if you’re not a spice fiend.

Looking forward to trying more dishes! Parking is easy.
