Customer Review Summary

The one sharply negative account concerns the Massaman curry. That reviewer describes it as microwaved and cold at the bottom, with dry, tough chicken that tasted off, no peanuts, and a sweet, watery sauce. The same reviewer reports a strange smell, slow service, and a seat facing the open bathroom door, and says the waiter shrugged and offered only that the chicken was probably old.

    “We were looking for a great Thai restaurant and were delighted to discover Raitakrai Thai. From the moment we walked in, the authentic atmosphere, welcoming ambiance, and extensive menu made us excited to dine there. For our main courses, we ordered the Pad See Ew with wide rice noodles and chicken, Cashew Nut with Chicken, and Cashew Nut with braised beef dish. Every plate was beautifully prepared, incredibly fresh, and full of authentic Thai flavors. Each dish had its own unique character, and everything was perfectly seasoned. To finish our meal, we shared the mango sticky rice with vanilla ice cream, and it was outstanding. The sweet, ripe mango, warm sticky rice, and creamy ice cream made for the perfect dessert. In fact, if I’d had any room left, I would have happily ordered another one! We left feeling completely satisfied, happy, and already looking forward to our next visit. If you’re craving authentic Thai cuisine made with fresh ingredients and wonderful flavors, Raitakrai Thai is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!”

    “Unfortunately I had a bad experience and have to give low rating based on that. I ordered Massaman curry with chicken. It was microwaved, cold at the bottom and slightly warm at the top. Rice was cold. Chicken pieces were dry and tough and had a really bad flavour, like it had gone off, rotten - definitely not fresh. And covered with raw onion There was barely any sauce/curry. There were way too many potatoes, but baby potatoes with the skin on- not an authentic recipe and the potatoes themselves tasted old and mushy. The sauce I had was cold and had far too much coconut and almost no flavour at all. Massaman curry should be fragrant and have depth. It was so bland and watery. The menu also warns that the dish is spicy 🌶️ but it was super sweet and honestly quite revolting… There were no peanuts in the curry too which disappointed me. Also, the waiter should have asked me about peanut allergies as it’s a supposed to be a main component of the dish (but there weren’t any so I guess it wasn’t an issue) Service was slow and I had to remind about my drink order. I was also asked to sit next to the bathroom - literally facing the toilet because the door was wide open. The restaurant had a strange smell inside… I didn’t eat the food and told the waiter about it, apologized for wasting food. He just shrugged his shoulders, said he’ll tell the chef and said “sorry - the chicken was probably old” It was clear I didn’t enjoy it and would have appreciated a small discount I’m disappointed because the restaurant has super high ratings so I had high expectations. Bad food makes me so sad I would not recommend this place and have absolutely no intention of ever returning here. One of the worst places I’ve visited in a while”
