My nanny friends and I met up at the playground and for lunch after. For reference because this is important, E is white, L is black, I am asian. L’s birthday was over the weekend so we were treating her for lunch and she wanted thai food. We get our food and we needed duck sauce. It was us and 4 of our nanny kids. We ordered white rice, mixed vegetables, drunken noodles, and 4 egg rolls.E goes up to ask for duck sauce and gets one. We realize we need more because L and the kids also loves duck sauce so she goes up to ask for more. She comes back upset telling us the woman told her they didn’t have any duck sauce.Does that even make any sense? When E just went up there and was given one? So I went up to address the front desk person. I want to note NO ONE was up front and watching the area. I’m not sure how long I would have been waiting if I didn’t walk over in front of the kitchen doors to where you can see me.A woman walks out to which I asked her if you guys have duck sauce or not? She looks confused and points to our table and responds “The one I just gave you?”I said “Yes. The one you just gave me. We need more duck sauce. We ordered a lot of food. I can literally pay for it, it’s not even that big of a deal. She asked me how many did I want? I responded how many is she willing to give because at this point, even 1 is enough for me. I’m annoyed I even have to argue over duck sauce. She tells me the duck sauce is $1. I handed her $4 and told her to keep the change.As she starts ringing me up, i said “Next time, don’t tell my white friend you have sauce and my black friend you don’t have sauce. That’s racist and that’s not okay”. Her response was to explain that they only give 1 duck sauce per order (which you need to change. Just charge people for duck sauce if it’s that big of a deal. Who wants to share 1 duck sauce across 7 people when you ordered plenty of food and paid a good amount of money?) I told her that’s fine but you lied to my friend and said you didn’t have any and you can just charge people for sauce. You’d rather keep duck sauce than make money?All she said back was okay and gave me my duck sauce. She did not have any response after I said thank you. We will never be returning which is a shame because your food was actually really good but we have no interest in coming back to experience hostility over again….. SAUCE. Please do better and train your staff to handle these situations better.
I don’t expect Thailand like food necessarily, but I have found some local spots that are close. This was one of the worst meals I’ve ever ordered. Complete lack of flavor. I ordered tigers tears beef salad, papaya salad, Tom Yum and crispy duck and a curry. The Tom Yum had no lemongrass and no flavor. It just tasted like tomato broth. The two salads had no fish sauce or lime in the sauce. The point of a Thai salad is the salty citrusy sauce. The curry had no flavor at all TBH I can’t even imagine how you make a curry that has no taste of curry.Big disappointment. First and last order at this restaurant.
Great food, lots of flavor and great service. Best sizzling beef we ever had.
Great service and delicious food. Their curry is amazing and the coconut milk is incorporated nicely to create a flavorful broth. They also make most of their spices they use, making the food even more incredible.
So glad my yoga teacher told me about this place. Tasty, fresh, food. Nice ambience. Reasonable prices.
My husband and I ordered from here through door dash. We were pleasantly surprised at good the food was. We would definitely come back!
Decent thai food but could be much better. 1. Agree with another reviewer that dishes are too "oily." 2. The amount of rice provided with curry is way too small. 4/1 curry/rice ratio. Please provide a pint container of rice, not a mini container. 3. This is probably an anomaly since I didn't see it in any other reviews, but they have 4 levels of spicy from which to select. I was between the middle two and actually chose the less spicy to be safe. I've eaten a lot of Thai food in my life and this is close to the species I've ever tried. And the lack of rice didn't help to balance it out. Hopefully ownership or management reads this review and takes it into account because I would certainly like to go back for a second try.
Great food, fast service! Best panang curry I have found outside of Thailand! Highly recommend!

I was excited to know that the owner of Thai Landing - opened this restaurant in Kenilworth. I ordered food and it does not come close to the quality or taste of Thai landing. Also, the description of my dish is not what I received. If I wanted average Thai I would just go to the Thai Restaurant closer to my house. Very disappointed and now understand why it not called Thai Landing.
