Reviews for Mai Thai Restaurant in Alexandria, VA
Honestly, I'm not very experienced with Thai food or culture but this place has some of the best food I've ever had! It appears... to be extremely authentic and tastes even better than it looks! Service is good and the waiters are kind. The location is alsophenomenal, right along the waterfront, except for an attempt at finding parking which is to be expected for this location. Iwill definitely be coming here again!! Read more
I had an excellent experience at Mai Thai. I came here on a Sunday evening and I was seated quickly near the window. The staff... was patient and delivered quick service. I ordered the Pad See Ew (Beef) and Thai Iced Tea. Everything tasted fresh anddelicious. The only complaints are that this restaurant currently does not allow dining on the lower level of the restaurant,making it a little difficult for individuals with mobility issues to eat indoors because of the stairs (more of a functionalityissue not a restaurant issue per say). Additionally, the bathrooms were a little dirty. If you are in the area and like Thaifood with a great view, this is the place to go. Read more
What a beautiful find it was for my family after we took the water taxi from National Harbor to Alexandria, VA. Right next to... the Marina and port this delicious Thai restaurant was able to accommodate 7 people effortlessly. Their wait staff wasefficient, their food delicious and had an array of authentic cuisines to choose from. Highly recommend their cucumber soupwhich was so refreshing and light, their spring rolls and duck salad was perfect. The Snapper (no image taken because we werehungry) was cooked to perfection and meaty, rich with flavors. Family friendly and highly recommend? One Con: they have only 1stall for each bathroom so the line can get long for the women?s bathroom but we managed by taking turns using the mens room?you have to work together when natural calls.

The food has great flavor and good portion sizes. The waitress was very friendly and polite. Would definitely visit again if... I'm in the area. Read more
I love this place, the food is fairly priced and delicious! I?ve enjoyed the Thai green curry and the drunken noodles and it is... exactly what I wanted. So delicious! I ordered some hot sake the second time around and it was delicious. I ate outside andlooked out at the river, as I waited. The service is laid back so it?s a restaurant to enjoy not rush through. I would recommendto anyone in the area! Read more
The service was impeccable and it's location right by the waterfront was superb. I also found the prices to be reasonable, but... the Thai food didn't taste as authentic as I had hoped. We ordered the Pad See Ew and the house special, Sweet Melody, whichwas a form of sweet and sour pork and shrimp. While the Pad See Ew was delicious, the Sweet Melody was rather pricey for meatthat wasn't tender and vegetables that were slightly undercooked. I did enjoy the papaya salad appetizer though!

Food was great! Best Pad See Ew I?ve had in the DMV area and the veggie rolls were nice and crispy. The view was beautiful from... upstairs and the staff was really friendly. We live far away but it?s worth the drive. Read more
