Buriram Thai Kitchen - Newark

Delicious curry, fresh dishes, excellent service. Charming restaurant,always clean and fresh .

The steamed vegetable dumplings (4) were decent; the dipping sauce was flavorful, and the dumpling wrappers were well-made. However, I was disappointed to find that there was little to no vegetable filling, aside from some very soft cabbage. Unfortunately, the Pad Thai with chicken, which I had hoped would be the standout dish, turned out to be the biggest letdown. Although it contained all the necessary elements, it was extremely dry, and the rice noodles were clumped together in a massive, sticky blob at the bottom of the bowl. It was nearly impossible to separate them, making it unpleasant to eat, so I ultimately had to throw the whole dish away. The ingredients were fresh, and the chicken was moist and tender, but there just wasn't enough of it. Perhaps my initial experience was an anomaly, so I might give the Pad Thai another chance when I return for more Tom Yum.

I had an excellent meal with generous portions at this restaurant. The staff was attentive, and the atmosphere was delightful. It's my favorite Thai restaurant!

I do encourage everyone to be patient with the staff; it’s tough to find workers these days, so let’s be kind to those who do show up. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend it! However, I suggest considering lowering your prices to attract more customers. I’ve visited many Thai restaurants in Massachusetts and California, and your prices seem a bit steep. I mention this because I want to see your business thrive. Also, I was charged an extra $2 for crispy chicken in my cashew chicken, which left a negative impression regarding your pricing practices. With already high prices, it doesn’t sit well to have additional charges for a bit of breading. If you treat your customers well, they will return. Otherwise, they might go to a Thai place that offers more reasonable prices without the extra charges.

Service was fast. Food was really good. Started with the crab Rangoon followed by Panang curry with chicken and Pad Thai with chicken. Will definitely come back.
