I come here to pick up food on my lunch break about every 2-3 weeks. They are consistent! The staff is so kind and polite. The food is always delicious. I love the taste. The food quality is amazing. Food temperature is always hot. They put extra care into securing take out orders to prevent spilling and conserve heat. The pleasant experience is worth the price.

Picked up food from this Thai restaurant and had a great experience. The duck curry was delicious - rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced without being overly spicy. They provided extra spice on the side. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The person who handled my order was very attentive and took the time to make sure I had everything I needed to enjoy my meal. Really appreciated the care and service. Will definitely be coming back!

Had a great experience at Thai55. Ordered the vegetarian Tom Yum soup and the spicy eggplant basil dish—both were excellent, full of flavor, and perfectly balanced. I really appreciated how accommodating they are with customization; everything can be made vegetarian or adjusted exactly to your preference. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the overall vibe was relaxed and welcoming. Definitely a solid spot for flavorful Thai food with great options for vegetarians. Highly recommend!

We love Thai 55! I have eaten it to-go and it is 10/10. Today We took our family for my birthday and the food was delicious. We made a reservation and the table was ready when we arrived. The service was excellent and we enjoyed the atmosphere. My kids loved the sweet and sour chicken and the drunken noodles were amazing. The restaurant is a 35 minute drive for us but I know we will be back soon!

Have been coming here for years as a customer and the food is always exceptional. My favorite by far is the curry duck meal. Would highly recommend that dish if you enjoy duck. Overall very kind and generous people running this store. They pay attention to detail on meal alterations and provide solid portion sizes. So whether as a customer, or on the rare occasion I have been a courier for this store doing gig work, they always provide a pleasant experience.

Friendly service and good food. I ordered Pad See Wa, seafood pad Thai, and mango sticky rice. Both noodle dishes were delicious but could've used more sauce. Next time I go I'll definitely ask for extra sauce, the pad Thai needed it more than the Pad See Wa. For the Pad See Wa, I'll get extra chicken next time. This was my first time having mango sticky rice, the rice is an acquired taste, good but took some getting used to. The mango and coconut cream sauce was the star for me.

The owner is the kindest person in the world! He is always so friendly when we come in, and we've seen him give the Doordash/Uber/delivery drivers free chilled sodas on hot days. The new space is very clean and there is ample table seating for both couples and larger groups, as well as seats at the bar. The food is almost $20 a dish for dinner, but that's very comparable to most Thai places in the area. The food is always steaming hot, taste is good/decent (your average neighborhood Thai place). If you are just looking for a clean place to have a hot comfort meal, I think Thai 55 is a good choice.

Thai 55 is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in town. I have had the best Pad Thai I can remember there. But there is some variability depending on who is cooking that day, as another time it was very good, just not quite as good as that time. Still one of my favorites. The staff is welcoming and friendly.

Great neighborhood Thai restaurant….always enjoy the spring rolls, crab angels and either Drunken Noodles or Green Curry. Staff is always friendly….we ate in this time but often enjoy take out.

Great food here, and the setup is pretty solid. Generally, stop in for lunch, but dinner is good, too. They don't seem to have much staff, so service can slow down, but not enough to be concerned.

10/5 ... I can't say enough good things about the food, atmosphere, and service. We were welcomed and treated like family. Do yourself a favor and go.
