The Thai Kitchen

Got drunken noodles! So good!! Smiley staff and good pricing.

Decided to try this new place, was delighted on how fresh and tasty the food was. This is not meant as much of a sit down restaurant, only few 2 people tables and more cold feeling like ambience likely good for lunch for businesses around, but the food was delicious and staff friendly and helpful. This meant for more take out but delicious and fresh! Parking is right around the back in the open lot parking space. We will be sure to return for pick up, there are no Thai options in Bethesda other than the old Bethesda, you have to venture out to Rockville or Silver Spring. Recommend you give it a try for pick up and you would not regret. I’m rooting for this place as I feel especially this part of Bethesda has lost much of its support for small businesses likely due to high rent. Enjoy!

I've been waiting my entire adult life for a fast casual (counter service), authentic Thai restaurant like this! The food was delicious, service was excellent, and prices extremely affordable for downtown Bethesda - pretty much any entree (including meat) is $10. They even have the water cups and water tank out in the dining area, which is a huge plus in my book. The only thing is that there are only about 8 or 10 tables, only a couple of which were four-tops (though most of the remaining two-tops can also be converted to four-tops), so I can imagine that it may be difficult to get a table during busy times, and there is no outdoor seating due to limited space on the sidewalk. That's really the only drawback I can think of, though. This place is already my new go-to!
