“I just tried the new seasonal dish — Thai Steamed Egg Hot Pot (Kai Toon Talay) ✨
And honestly… it’s so good that I had to share this review!
The steamed egg is incredibly soft and silky, but not bland like the Japanese version.
It’s infused with authentic Thai Tom Yum flavors — fragrant herbs with just the right touch of spice, tanginess, and savory depth.
Inside the hot pot are fresh shrimp and squid, served bubbling hot right at the table — the aroma alone will make your mouth water!
It’s absolutely perfect for the chilly weather — comforting, healthy, and something everyone in the family will love. ❤️
Warm, flavorful, and full of Thai soul.
If you haven’t tried it yet, you must!
This isn’t just a new winter dish — it’s pure comfort in a bowl that warms your heart.
The staff are always so kind and attentive. My husband goes through water quickly and his glass has literally never sat empty. That level of service says it all.
Food wise, you can’t go wrong. My husband is loyal to the pineapple fried rice with chicken, while I am partial to the pad kra pao with tofu and extra veggies, this time I got it with shrimp (bonus: they offer brown rice). Spring rolls, dumplings, calamari all consistently great appetizers. And if you’re lucky enough to snag mango sticky rice for dessert, don’t skip it.
Drinks are another highlight. Every single cocktail is as cute as it is delicious. I usually go for the passionfruit mojito, but the frozen passionfruit margarita I tried last time was just as amazing.
This place deserves way more than 5 stars. We’re so glad it’s here.
The customer service used to be really friendly, welcoming and kind. The food portions were great for the price and the drinks were fantastic too!
Over the years, particularly in 2024, the customer service of the waitresses became very hostile in their communication and serving. Side note: my family has always tipped well and been kind to them.
Their food portions, particularly of their ‘Drunken Noodles’ and ‘Basil Fried Rice’ have decreased in size but, their flavor and spice levels never fail to impress– i’ll give them that! Their food is always tasty and flavorful.
One particular problem about Thai Social is that they are *not* wheelchair accessible. The doorway of entry/exit is really narrow and there is a slight inclination at the door which makes rolling a wheelchair a bit difficult. The space inside is also super tight and as a result, wheelchair customers are usually forced to sit at the front, near the windows.
An additional note, when they just opened, they had their chocolate lava cake listed as ‘Hot Chocolate Lava Cake with Ice-cream’ however, their lava cake has never been hot, always cold– maybe that’s how they served it there but, it was brought to their attention multiple times and it was always dismissed. Eventually they changed the name of the dessert.
In summary, their prices may have remained stagnant but their portions have decreased, the customer service has become a bit condescending and rude and the establishment is not accessible for wheelchair-using customers.
Our visitation at Thai Social has reduced significantly due to these reasons, despite the restaurant being nearby and convenient.
Cons: The portions are too small for the price. Americans like to be over fed. A $22 dollar dish of dumplings should not be served in a small butter plate and there should be more dumplings. I think there was just 5 tiny green dumplings and they didn’t taste very good. I had the Fried Duck which was $22. It was about 6 small slithers of dry duck breast so thinly sliced; I had trouble tasting the fried exterior of the meat/duck. They should charge $28 for the plate and serve half a fried duck. Let the customer slice it themselves. The white rice that came with the plate was boring. What could be the extra cost of a few Thai spices to be added to the rice. The rice was so bland it took the rest of the dish down. The dish was also served with too little sauce. The drinks are about $15 to $22 each. They are served in standard small glasses like some cheap bar. Thai/Asian restaurants should always use large ornate glasses when charging so much for a drink. What’s the cost $ of a little extra juice and a tad bit more liquor.
I walked away thinking it was a nice restaurant with nice people but cheap portions for far too much money. Many people don’t go back to restaurants that serve cheap portions. Repeat business or building a following is vital for the survival of any restaurant. Sadly, I don’t think I will be going back to this place, they left me no reason to go back. I went home and made myself a hamburger.
