Great place. Definitely recommend trying it out. We got the familiar food options that we usually order at a thai restaurant and the food compared well.

Drunken noodles and massaman curry were really good with good enough portion size. Loved the dessert as well.

We went around 1 pm (peak hours on a Sunday) but didn’t have to wait long. Within 5 minutes, we got the table.

Highly recommend!

The dining area is spacious and lively, giving it that classic busy restaurant feel. The portions are generous, and sharing family style makes it easy to try a bit of everything. I really liked the special dishes not listed on the menu, and the tablet photos help a lot when deciding what to order. It’s a great spot for groups of three to six to enjoy good food and conversation. Make sure to save some room for dessert! The staff is friendly, quick, and always ready to help.

The sauteed spinach with garlic and veggies was my favorite – very flavorful. Chicken curry was on the sweeter taste but was tasty.
Thai basil fried rice was very nice. Vegetarian Panang curry was ok. Had a fishy taste imo.

The highlight was fried banana with ice cream. Absolutely delicious.

New Krungthai has the look of a place aiming higher than the original, and the décor definitely sets that expectation from the moment you walk in. The room feels brighter, the seating is more open, and the overall atmosphere suggests a more refined dining experience. Some dishes still shine, especially the roasted duck curry, Panang curry, and the vegetarian options that are clearly labeled and thoughtfully prepared. Portions remain generous, and the plating has a clean, intentional feel that makes the food look as good as it tastes. Families can settle in easily thanks to mild dishes and available high chairs, and most dietary needs can be handled if you ask. But the experience starts to slip once the room fills up, because the layout tightens quickly and the aisles become harder to navigate. Service moves fast, sometimes too fast, and the rushed pace makes the meal feel more transactional than warm. Parking adds another layer of frustration since the small lot fills early and street parking disappears during busy hours. Even with these issues, the food itself still carries enough strength to keep the restaurant in the conversation for casual meals. It’s a place with potential, but the execution doesn’t always match the polished look it presents.

The atmosphere shifts noticeably during peak hours, and that’s where the restaurant struggles to keep up with its own ambitions. The dining room becomes crowded, the noise level rises, and the calm energy from earlier in the day fades. Staff do their best, but the quick turnover and aggressive tip prompts make the service feel more hurried than attentive. Accessibility is workable thanks to a flat entrance and mostly open layout, but maneuvering becomes difficult once the tables fill. The vegetarian menu remains a highlight, offering a range of dishes that feel intentional rather than obligatory. Kids fit in fine, and the menu has enough variety to satisfy a group without much debate. Still, the overall experience feels uneven, and the gap between the restaurant’s appearance and its actual performance becomes hard to ignore. On slower nights, the charm comes through more clearly, but on busy evenings, the flaws stand out. New Krungthai is still a decent option with flavorful dishes, yet it doesn’t consistently deliver the elevated experience its setting promises.

Lunch specials!! So happy this Krung Thai has lunch specials! Start with a delicious, beautiful soup and then get your choice of entree (L19, rama for me) with an egg roll, fried wonton and dipping sauce as well as steamed rice. L19 rama (with choice of meat and heat, I go with mild chicken) is the fabulous green curry studded with eggplant, tofu, peppers, and basil.

Had a lovely meal at New Krungthai and everything hit the spot!
We started with the Papaya Salad – fresh, tangy, and perfectly spicy. It really woke up the taste buds.
The Crab Fried Rice was flavorful and had a generous amount of real crab – not dry or oily, just right.
Their Red Curry was rich, creamy, and full of comforting flavors. I could honestly drink that curry!
And of course, we couldn’t skip dessert – the Mango Sticky Rice was soft, sweet, and paired so well with the warm coconut cream.

Such a satisfying Thai meal – definitely going back again!

We come here occasionally but the service and the foods are on the top notch every time.

Foods always being served with a right temperature and flavorful taste. The price is not cheap but reasonable with their quality; and you can see the portion is big. Also one thing I love in here is they are taking their spicy level seriously. If you want mild, it will be mild, if you want spicy, you are gonna sweat. Other places seem like they just want to throw their spices in there.

Highly recommended for family and friend to hang out and enjoy the party of flavor in here.

This place is sooooooooooo good!

Came here for lunch and it did not disappoint! The papaya salad was delicious and SPICY. The red and green thai curries were well flavored. The basil fried rice was tasty. The spring rolls were great!

The Thai iced tea and Thai iced coffee were also well made. The service was okay but the food fas exceeds the care of good service.

I’d come back here without hesitation!

We came here on Saturday right before they open at noon. Parking is limited so if you arrive at 1pm, you will have a hard time finding a parking space and will have to wait for patrons to leave.

It’s one of my favorite restaurants in this area and it’s really crowded.

This place has been around for decades. It’s a very noisy environment.
Food wise, you’ll find classic Thai dishes although I don’t remember seeing spicy catfish.

It was a fairly long wait 45 min on Saturday evening, but the friendly service and lively atmosphere made it worth while. Enjoyed warm sake’ and veg spring rolls for appetizer. Chowmein with veggies was excellent. However the peanut sauce and penang curry were rather oily but flavorful. Mild spicy was good with steamed rice on the side. Grand finale of mango sticky rice was just amazing presentation!
