Thai Pot

Small area for seating. Had the pad thai for lunch but it was soooo pink in color I wondered if I got the right order. It tasted ok but I had better.

I’m a big fan of this place. The menu has a decent variety of Thai dishes, including many vegetarian and pescaterian options. The prices are reasonable, even for wine & beer. The service and food quality good– not outstanding– but consistent. They also deliver quickly when ordering.
My favorites are the tofu with cashews, pad Thai, and fried bananas with green tea ice cream :)

I’ve never been to this place but it’s one my favorite places to order from. Basil lunch (spicy) and drunk noodles are my favorite. Delivery is quick and delivery guy is always friendly. Totally recommended!

Delivery is very fast and I haven’t had any issues with the quality or delivery times. Thai Pot does not skimp on the proteins and they certainly mean it when they say something is «extra spicy.»
The food is stellar and some dishes really stand out: the Thai style wings aren’t exactly authentic, but they’re worth trying, the drunken noodles are delicious, and Pad Prig Khing with beef is superb.
If you’re not getting delivery, the restaurant is fairly standard in terms of ambiance, but certain dishes will taste much better when served fresh (whole fried fish, fried calimari, and the curry puffs).
Worth checking out and certainly one of the best Thai/​Asian options in the Forest Hills/​Rego Park area.

Just ordered from this place!
Delivery was quick but the food looks and taste old.
The soup had this layer of oil on top that was not gonna go away.
When I was eating the chicken, I was just questioning my life.
Green Papaya salad was just bad as well.
The side of rice had the layer of solid rice on top .
Would not order from here again.

This is anther long overdue review as I’ve been coming here for years.
Thai Pot is great. It’s small, it’s simple, it’s generally quiet, and the food is always great. Convenient location, friendly service and the prices are right. The décor is really cute as well. Really nice atmosphere.
I’m particularly fond of their curry puffs, but really you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Just depends on what you feel like eating. The food is so nice and light it’s incredible.
If you’ve never been here, please come check it out. You’re sure to enjoy it.

Ordered couple of times via Seamless. Their service is quite prompt and spice count is fine as long as you mention it. The only weird thing is their portions have varied for the same dish.

Never ordering from here again. I ordered through Seamless and what arrived was a tasteless thin watery broth in place of massaman curry. The curry has no flavor or spice, the potatoes taste old and stale. I have no idea how to make massaman curry, but I’m sure if I tried to, it would be a billion times better than this restaurant’s creation. Don’t waste your time or money.

The food I got at this restaurant was very good. The environment is very nice as well. The service is also amazing. Definitely coming back

First time eating thai food, pretty nice spot small and relaxing, the service was good but then again we were the only people in the spot, chicken pad thai was good, and they deffinitly gave us a healthy portion, the penang curry was also delicious, just not as healthy of a portion and the crispy duck was a bit over cooked but had delicious flavors. The best thing by far was the tom something soup, fucking retarted, would stop here just to have this soup everyday.
Now I did like the sticky coconut rice, but did not like that it came in a plastic sandwich baggie that was obviously just microwaved, I’ve been in enough kitchens to know alot of things get microwaved it’s the number one tool in small kitchens but atleast send it looking somewhat presentable. In a bag on a plate is how it came, not very appealing to some one who’s never tried anything from the cuisine before, but that being said, they have encouraged me to go out and look for different thai spots, if I’m in the neighborhood I’d stop in again.

A friend recommended this place and I’m glad that we went. I’m a tough critic of Thai places because I used to work at one and have visited Thailand.
It was late at night and the place was pretty empty, which was great for holding a conversation. The servers were attentive and we ordered a few dishes. I really liked the tofu curry that I got. We felt that the price was maybe a little on the high side, but they do give a lot of food. You can split a dish and an appetizer between two and be full, easily.
They can accommodate parties from 2 people to maybe 8, but I’d call ahead.

Randomly found this place last night for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Great service, ambiance, and food. The Tom Yum soup was delicious, as was the Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles. I’ll definitely be eating here again.

I ordered food from this place and they brought half a bowl of food when I paid for an entrée and not to mention took almost an hour! When I called the place all they can offer me is 10% which is like $ 2 which is ridiculous!!! Horrible customer service. Never ordering food from here again!

Charming little spot. I tried this place with a girlfriend for lunch today. I had a very positive experience. I am surpised this place has so many mixed reviews. First off, really liked their décor. Was nice, clean and had plenty of seating. They have a great lunch special for about$ 8. I ordered the pad thai noodles with chicken, came with salad. Salad wasgood, but they could have added more dressing. The noodles were something different. Typical pad thai with bean spouts and peanuts. It also had this sweet flavor to it that wasn’t overpowering. Pleasantly nice change from other thai places. Service was great. Our waiter was very attentive. Food came out in great time and we were always taken care of. Will definitely try this place agian. The red snapper other Unilocalers mentioned looks good.

Went to dinner with a couple of friends the other nite. One of them lives near this place. It’s a small restaurant. It was pretty much empty considering it was the holiday weekend. We all ordered noodles. Pad see ew with tofu, one with chicken, and drunken noodle with beef. I didn’t try anyone else’s dish, but my chicken pad see ew was ok. A little too sweet, slightly bland. But I added soy sauce and lots of chili sauce which made it better. They had a crab pad thai which sounded very interesting but I was hesitant about the freshness of it at a place like this. I think it’s a good place to get takeout or something standard. I’m not sure if it’s a good place to get a fancy seafood dish just under the presumption of the locale and they don’t get a high demand of those dishes. Service is good… when they actually pay attention to u.

We’ve ordered from Thai Pot since they first opened. At that time, there were few Thai places in Forest Hills. The fact that they were up the block was an added bonus. The portions were generous and delivery was quick. Also, they are the only Thai place I know that puts pineapple in their Penang Curry.
Over the years, it seems the takeout portions started getting smaller, but when you order a chicken dish you expect more than an ounce of chicken. Today we ordered the usual curry dish there were 5 pieces of chicken in each container. When we called to complain, we were told there was nothing they could do. A manager finally called an hour later and promised to compensate us with a complimentary order of chicken.
It finally arrived after an hour. The chicken was dry — we were obviously the last stop. I think we may have to start eating from other Thai places, now that there are abundant alternatives in the neighborhood. Very sad. It used to be quite a decent place to order from.

Your run of the mill Thai place.
Came here for dinner on a Friday night with a friend of mine who lives nearly and was craving their duck wrap.
First off, the service was just slow… from ordering, getting the check, having the check picked up. Our waitress charged our cards incorrectly as well but she was nice, and it wasn’t too big of a deal.
The chicken pad thai is what I had, and I stand by my belief that you can never go wrong with pad thai! The sweet sauce in the pad thai was delicious, and not overly sweet. They left out the peanuts and scallions like I requested, and the chicken wasn’t dry and tasteless like other places I’ve been to. Portion was large, and I was hunnnnngry, so it was perfect.
Unfortunately, my friend said she thinks the duck wrap tasted better the times she ordered delivery from here! And the coconut sticky rice wasn’t to her liking.
Probably wouldn’t come here again if I’m ever in the area. :(

Just stumbled upon this place when I happened to be in the area. Nothing special, but not bad either. Small place, has about 10 tables at most. and ambiance is eh (it’s darkish but un-​intentionally so). I got the dumplings as an appetizer and pad thai shrimp for entrée, and enjoyed both. Service was super quick — I went to the bathroom after ordering the dumplings and they were already on the table by the time I got back! — like magic! Lol. Pad thai came out soon after. Portion was the perfect amount — I was full but not in the i-​feel-​sick-​regretting – not taking-​leftovers-​home kinda way. I’ve never had bad pad thai so didn’t think I was taking much of a risk by going here (since reviews were so-​so).

This is the only Thai place I can think of on Queens Boulevard in the neighborhood that is close to the train. The place got packed pretty quickly on a cold Friday night and there is enough seating for a good-​sized crowd. We ordered thai ice teas, beef pad thai, pineapple fried rice, chicken pad thai, red curry with chicken and whole fried red snapper with ginger sauce. Given the full house, the food did take a bit to come out. The thai ice tea was good — not too sweet and not too heavy/​creamy. The pad thai was a winner here! We really liked it and think it’s on the top of our pad thai list. The red curry was okay. It’s not as spicy as I thought it would be and the chicken was rough. I wouldn’t order it again. We all liked the whole fried red snapper with ginger sauce. It was crispy on the outside with loads of flavor and tons of meat. We picked the fish till there was no more! I would definitely return to try the seafood with other sauces. Highly recommend the pad thai. Heard the duck wrap appetizer is good too so that’s on my list.

Solid 3.5 stars.
Ordered pad see ew and pad thai for take out. They had it ready quickly, and their restaurant was packed with patrons. Both were pretty good and not badly priced. We would order from here again.
