We haven't eaten inside the restaurant in years, but takeout is always delicious, hot, and correct. One of our go-tos for takeout.
Chester center is a hot spot for foodies with many, many selections. If you are looking for a quality and comforting Thai food option--look no further than Thai Riverside! Grab take out or dining in their cozy dining room. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. We dropped by on a week night, with the place mostly to ourselves. We were treating my sister to dinner and Thai Riverside was her pick. The menu had the usual traditional Thai dishes; noodle, curry, stir, and house specials. I like that the menu wasn't overwhelming either. We started with Thai Iced Teas that were creamy, strong flavor, and not too sugary. We got the Vegetable filled Thai Curry Puffs that were served with a tangy, bright cucumber sauce. These were delicious, the crust buttery and flaky. I ordered the Green Curry with Tofu which I absolutely loved. It had a spicy kick, the veggies were fresh, and the tofu had crispy edges. Curry is my usual go-to. My sister got the Broccoli Oyster Sauce with Chicken and my husband got the Pho Noodle Soup. They both enjoyed their meals. The potion sizes were generous too that we packed half of it for later. There aren't many other Thai food options in the area so Thai Riverside is a delicious choice. If you are not familiar with Chester Center, there are designated public parking lots everywhere, but since Thai Riverside resides in the Water Street building (backside) there is a parking lot for those businesses only. We would definitely come to Thai Riverside again whether it be dining in or getting take out. One thing for sure, I'll be grabbing another Thai Iced Tea.
Delicious pad Thai! Crispy, crunchy, fresh. Everything you want in a chicken pad Thai and totally recommend when you've got a craving.
Most of the times I have been here I would give it a five star review. Everything is usually fresh and very, very good. I feel like it is a little bit pricey for the small portions, but I don't mind because everything is usually extremely good. I was a little bit disappointed last night when I picked up though. The crab ragoon and the spring rolls were very dry and overcooked. All the other stuff just tasted different in meh this time. I also noticed that the prices on my receipt were higher than what their menu says. I definitely won't let that one that experience. Keep me away though. Definitely try if you're in the area.
I would never have found this restaurant had I not been searching for one in the area but I was very pleased with the meal that we had. It's very very small and it's hard to find but the food was great and the staff is efficient. The atmosphere is basic but sufficient, and I will definitely return again.
Masaman curry with shrimp was excellent. Large portion and great flavor. Shrimp were big, tender and perfectly cooked. Looks like they do takeout only in July 2024.
The quality of the food was great! The service was acceptable but minimal and the ambiance simple.
Had take out food from here for the first time. It was excellent. Normally when I ask for something "very spicy" it doesn't come out that way but this did. We will be back.
Sad this was the only picture I took... I had the Lobster Pad Thai and my husband ordered the Red Curry Duck and both were out of this world and the Milk Tea was so good that my husband drank half and had to buy me another! ;) Even bought one for our babysitter. Service was warm and inviting.
