Thai Rak Thai

Visiting for the weekend and passed this spot a couple of times and by the time we were looking for somewhere to eat we were drawn back. We can close to closing. Wonderful spot courtesy service and quick food. It was our anniversary weekend. They brought us a treat in the house after we’d finished our meal.

Been reviewing Thai restaurants in the USA for a while now, this one is good but not great. We appreciated them being open and available! The soups were our highlight (duck soup and seafood). The drunk noodle was okay, but the fried rice wasn’t crispy like we enjoy.

We crave this place WEEKLY. By far the best in the area, definitely get the basil duck! And the yellow curry and papaya salad! Literally anything for the price and for the quality you can’t go wrong.

I have tried almost every single Thai restaurant in town, but this one really disappointed me. Got a delivery order for pad sew aew and pad Thai on uber eats because it’s high rating. I have to say this pad see aew is the worst one I ever got. Never had it tastes soggy and weird sour flavor. And the beef doesn’t look like real beef. And the ingredients isn’t authentic as well. The pad Thai taste much better than the pad see aew. Guess not much ppl are ordering it so it’s not fresh as pad Thai.

I wish I could give them 6 stars. I was immediately greeted and seated by the window. The waiter was genuinely a nice person. I heard her greet several other guests by name. The spicy basil fried rice was outstanding. Large chunks of white meat chicken and very flavorful. I also had panang curry which was great. Same large chunks of chicken and loads of fresh vegetables. The service was as fast and as courteous as I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Scranton. The “Thai hot” level 5 is no joke.
