Phu Thai Thai Take Away in Nieuwmarkt/Lastage

Ordered the Tom Saeb Neua via Uber Eats last night. The beef was tender, but the broth was way too sour. I think they put in too much lime. I was squinting with every bite 😅. It could’ve been a lot spicier too. I’ve eaten at the restaurant before and really enjoyed the other dishes, so this one was quite disappointing compared to my previous experiences.

It's just so delicious. I want to go again. Also, there are separate sauce containers with pickled chili peppers, and the price is good. Men might find the Tom Yum Goong a bit small, but the rice portion is huge.

At Phu Thai Thai, you’ll find yummy Thai food with authentic flavors. Compared to other spots in the area, this restaurant will give you the most bang for your buck, as they serve generous portions full of deliciousness. If I lived in Amsterdam, this place would be my go-to forever!

I am Thai😊 and on every trip to a new country, what I crave most is my homeland's food. Believe me, this is the true taste of Thai cuisine. Your food truly made me happy.🥰We'll definitely visit again when we have the chance. Thank you for the delicious food and the friendly service.☺️

The food was alright, but it was incredibly crowded. The three of us waited a long time to get a table. Maybe if there were fewer people, the tables would turn over faster.

Really yummy. And they had a great selection of food and drinks. Would definitely recommend.

The food is pretty good, definitely recommend to try it. But it can get pretty crowded so maybe try to make a reservation before going.

The food was delicious, every single dish.

Foood was really delicious but people who work there are very RUDE! Horrible customer service!!!!

Favourite Thai in all of Amsterdam!

BEST THAI FOOD IN AMSTERDAM, same taste as you get in Thailand (confirmed by a Thai person). It's so delicious! It made me miss Thailand less. The portion is huge, enough for one person to be full. Definitely worth the price.

10/10 favourite spot. very 'gezellig' limited space, cozy. Call them. Food well served sizeable portions. Try the thai tea when you can. The green one is seasonal(seemingly)

Pad Thai with tofu. 18€ no vegetables taste ok but not worth 18 €

We had a great experience at Phu Thai Thai Take Away. The food was absolutely delicious and tasted genuinely authentic Thai, full of flavor and clearly freshly prepared. It’s not a fancy place, the atmosphere is simple and modest, but still warm and welcoming, which actually adds to the charm. Highly recommended if you want real Thai food in Amsterdam. One important tip: if you don’t like spicy food or you are dining with children, make sure to ask which dishes are spicy before ordering, because many of them are quite hot!

Amazing food and fast service, will definitely be back

Food was very good but service is slow, the place is small, staffs are not very attentive.

Every dish is authentically delicious. Highly recommended!

The food was absolutely delicious!

Authentic Thai flavors that are well worth the wait. There was a constant steam of orders coming and going during the 30 minutes we waited for our food.

The best and most authentic Thai in Amsterdam!!! Fast service, incredibly friendly staff & the food is just amazing! If you want the real deal, go to Phu Thai!! 10/10 recommended🥰

The food is absolutely delicious, I'll definitely go back.

My husband and I visited this place three times since it was close to where we were staying. The food was alright—not amazing—as you can find similar dishes in many Thai restaurants abroad. However, every time we went, most of the staff (probably all) seemed to have attitude issues, just like other reviewers have mentioned. There was no greeting when we walked in, no thank you after we paid and left, and no acknowledgment when we said thank you. The first time, I thought it was okay. The second time, I assumed they were probably just busy—but after the third time, I felt it was worth leaving a review. It’s probably the place with the poorest attitude and lowest level of hospitality I’ve experienced so far!

Sensational authentic Thai food. Classics such as pad thai (we tried with prawn) and tom khaa (again with prawn) were the best in Europe tried in several countries. Great music in the background also

This is the place to eat thai food in amsterdam, local, small, delicious

Very good, the curry easily serves two people with normal appetites. Two people with very large appetites should order an individual portion. The red curry is spicy, but apparently the green curry is spicier, so those who don't like spicy food might not enjoy it as much.

The food was delicious, just like in Thailand! The staff provided excellent service.

Had the drunken noodles, they were excellent! The staff is also very friendly and all the other dishes my party ordered were also great.

BEST Thai restaurant in town. Also one of the few ones that are actually authentic.

The food was delicious. The spicy soup was amazing, as was the fish with chili sauce.

This place takes you back to Thailand. Authentic food, friendly staff and delicious flavors

We had a delicious, authentic Thai meal. Everything is freshly prepared in an open kitchen. Unfortunately, you can't reserve a table in advance. You have to wait at the door. Sometimes it can take a little longer than usual. They have limited seating, so the wait is a bit longer than usual. But everything is so fresh and delicious that it's definitely worth it.

Great experience eating here today, We came in early around 17:45 and we were seated immediately. The waiter was very nice and all the staff looked real Thai. The food was very good and the open kitchen was nice to look at. The price isn’t cheap, but it also isn’t expensive, it is pretty normal compared to other Thai restaurants in Amsterdam/the area. Definitely would come back here soon.

I’m Thai but I live abroad and I really want to eat original taste of Thai food because I got home sick, I’ve try many Thai restaurants in Amsterdam but still not the taste that I like and finally I found Phu Thai restaurant is the best original Thai foods for me the taste and staff and the owner they are so kind and friendly, fully recommend 100% 👍🙏

Very tasty and fast. Snack bar atmosphere but clean.

The taste is look like in the Thailand.

I love this place. It’s slow and maybe bit loud. Because of that it makes this restaurant feel more authentic. Not a romantic dinner place but you would go here for the taste!

Great Thai! Getting seating inside can be a challenge as it's very busy usually. But the wait is worth it.

Best Thai food in Amsterdam for sure. You better come early to skip the waiting, otherwise it can be pretty packed during eating time. The owners are kind and friendly also

The food was soooooo good, espicially the tom seab. Only thing is the workers didn’t know we spoke thai and were talking about us in thai quite loudly 😭

A little shop with limited seats, therefore can be very crowded The food was very good and the service nice

Lovely service and delicious food.

Food was delicious and service was excellent. Very neat and clean…Kind and humble staff, wish they had more smiles on their faces :)

When ordering online and eating at the restaurant the food came differently. I ordered Yen Ta Fo (pink noodles). The restaurant was served with crispy wonton chips but when ordering online, I only got noodles and soup. The food that I got was completely different in the picture. They also have section asking if you need any utensils or anything. I put for utensils, napkins, and seasoning. I got nothing and I’m at the hotel so how am I supposed to eat?? Not recommend ordering an online

The food was delicious, the service was excellent. Friendly staff. The decor is functional.

The place is simple and the food is amazing!

The Best Thai I've Had in the Netherlands! Food Quality & Dishes (5/5): Everything tasted incredibly fresh and amazing. This is honestly the best Thai food I've had in the Netherands. The menu is extensive, and we loved everything we tried: Phad See Ew Moo (Fried rice noodles with beef): Very tasty. Generous portion. Highly recommend adding chili fish sauce for extra flavor. Phad Ka Na Moo Krob (Stir-fried kale with crispy pork belly): Super tasty and slightly spicy. The rice portion was generous- good for soaking up the sauce. Som Tum Thai (Papaya salad): We chose the mild spice level. Also served with a generous portion of rice. Service & Ambiance: The staff was very friendly and attentive. Note: They do not serve alcohol. Wait Time: We got a table after about 15 minutes without a reservation, but this was in November so it can be a longer wait in more popular seasons. Verdict: Definitely a restaurant I will return to again !

Best thai food in Amsterdam. Even beating the very famous ones. Actually not only good thai but one of best food in whole Amsterdam, including all fancy places. restaurants.

Love the foods here Best thai goods and very authentic

The food tastes great, but the service is always terrible. Every time I come here, I try to understand that the service is quite slow, but I’ve always forgiven that because the food is delicious, and I truly want to eat here. I traveled all the way from the United States just to have authentic Thai food because I saw good reviews and heard recommendations from friends. However, when I arrived at the restaurant today, I felt very disappointed. None of the staff paid attention to the customers. Everyone seemed focused only on packing food orders and completely ignored new customers who came in. No one greeted or talked to the customers. The service is poor, the management is bad, and nothing ever seems to improve. Every time I visit Amsterdam , I always make sure to come and eat here, but it’s always the same — no improvement, no development in the system at all. They just let things continue like this. The only reason customers still come is because the food tastes good. But if they keep ignoring the service and management issues, people will eventually stop coming back, no matter how delicious the food is.

My number one go-to spot for Thai food — basically my stomach’s happy place. 🇹🇭🔥 Tiny place, so finding a seat is pure luck. If you get one, buy a lottery ticket right after. Takeaway is the smarter move, and eating elsewhere saves you from doing the awkward table hover dance. Come at odd hours if you want a shot at calm service, because they’re running dine-in, Uber Eats, and walk-ins all at once — it’s organized chaos, but somehow the pad kra pao still comes out perfect every time. Service can be hit or miss, but honestly, when the food’s this good, I’d forgive them even if my order came via carrier pigeon.

Great place, super tasty food, I highly recommend!!! I will visit again

I'd had this restaurant on my list for a while, and now I had the chance! It's a small restaurant with Thai service. I ordered the green curry with beef for takeout. It wasn't very busy, but I still had to wait a while for my food. Meanwhile, I saw some delicious dishes going by, which gave me high hopes. Once I got home (an hour later), the food was still warm. For a green curry, it was quite yellow. The flavor was good and not too spicy. I would have preferred long beans instead of green beans. I also missed the Thai eggplant. The beef was nice and tender, not chewy. There was also fresh Thai basil, which gave it a nice flavor. I could eat it for two days, so it was good for €19.50. 👍🏻

Ordered green curry chicken and sweet sour fish. Green curry chicken is really good, the fish tastes a bit fishy though. Thai milk tea is also way too sweet. But overall very satisfied.

I go to this restaurant often and love it. A few months ago, I found the waitstaff unfriendly and not very polite. The food doesn't taste as good as it used to.

Everything is faultless. Every single thing. Thank you so much for such a beautiful experience.

Its nice thai food,we have 10 Person to eat, We get here from John Our driver Carter They cook fast,

The food was very delicious.It's a cozy place, even if the building is not new. The waiter knows everything about the food, you can say what you'd like to eat and they will help you to find something. We liked it.

Nice authentic place. Fast service and a large selection of delicious Thai dishes. The menu includes non-spicy food.

Always had a delicious meal here! Friendly staff.

Perfect admispheee good food. Authentic

A simple restaurant with very good food. The price-performance ratio is okay. Not very cheap considering it's a takeaway. The service is friendly and attentive. The good thing is, many locals eat there. So that's saying something!

Very delicious, very Thai style. I miss Thailand so much from eating at this restaurant.

It's so delicious. I'm about to cry. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🧡🧡🧡 Best Thai restaurant in Amsterdam!! Highly recommend (very nice songs as well)

Real Authentic takes me back to Bangkok !!!

Food is so yum and the service is pretty fast. Must try Thai restaurant when you visit Amsterdam.

Amazing food but they rush you out to make more money serving others. You can’t sit there calmly. Not good to dine in but good for takeaways.

If you love Thai foods, don’t skip this spot. I visited here 4 times with my friendsand every time I felt satisfied with both the foods and the price.

Very crowded need to wait about 20-30 mins waiting line. Foods are fresh, my fav is papaya salad👍🏻

Excellent spot for authentic Thai food. Loved the pad thai chicken (which I was able to completely customize) and warm, hospitable staff! The place is not big but ok for a quick dinner. Highly recommend.

A small but very popular Thai restaurant in Amsterdam, always full of people coming in. I first visited back in 2019 and came back again — the food is still just as delicious! The noodles are amazing, probably the best beef noodles in Amsterdam. The restaurant has expanded with more seating, but it’s still so popular that I had to wait almost an hour for a table. Totally worth it! The LGBTQ+ staff are the friendliest and absolutely lovely — they made the experience even better.

Unfortunately, I can only give three stars to this 'take away’. Food was OK but very overpriced, even compared to London price. Their service is the worst: the big boss lady was so grumpy that the corner of her lips were dragging on the floor; Also we got a table for three people but one of my friends’ train was cancelled and he couldn’t come. I don’t know why but the staff there made such a big deal about it, even when we were paying, one staff confronted us about it… just unbelievable…

ordered pad see ew after seeing all the rave reviews and we couldn't get more than 3 bites in. food was absolutely tasteless. no salt, no spices, nothing to call it Thai.

Had a very enjoyable and tasty dinner. Somewhat tight quarters, but still had enough room to share a meal that was very satisfying. Had the pad see ew and spring roles.

Fine, traditional Asian cuisine. Sitting outside would be great. We enjoyed it very much.

Went here for dinner - the food was delicious and the portions of very big and fair size for the price in this location! Staff was friendly, but we did decide to do take away because the place was a bit overcrowded and pretty hot inside. But would defo recommend going there for the delicious Thai food!

It used to be our favorite Thai restaurant. Unfortunately... even though the name is the same, the menu is different, the kitchen seems to be staffed by different people... no. After eating here on Friday, we sadly have to conclude that it's not what it used to be. What a shame!!! Otherwise, the service is friendly and the interior has been spruced up a bit.

Very good restaurant, good welcome, very good portion. Only downside is not much space but it's well worth it!

I used to work in Thailand and am really happy I found this restaurant after a recommendation from a professor of Southeast Asian Studies.... Great authentic Thai food, I very much recommend trying the Isaan dishes from the northeastern part of Thailand!

Looks like an authentic Thai restaurant and it is definitely spicier than your usual Thai 🔥tasty and fine service I wish just some of the dish were less spicy to be able to taste the food !

The food is nice, but the staff is not. We made a mistake in the order, then ordered something else which was never passed to the kitchen. This is not the first time something like this happened and we are not the only ones. We came here for more than 15 years and will not return. Avoid.

Three very different dishes. All very good taste. Spicy not sweet. Just lekker.

Just off the main roads, which is already a plus. I ate very well, paid fairly, and was served by friendly staff. The space is small, but I'd go back tomorrow for dinner.

This is the most delicious Thai restaurant in the area. I've been eating there for 8 years. The owner is Thai and very kind. The price is not expensive. You get 100% authentic Thai flavors. Anyone visiting Amsterdam must stop by and try it.

Excellent authentic Thai food and great service

The food is average, but the owner's attitude is so strong! Not recommend at all

Food was OK, friendliness was modest, decor was very simple; there are better places in Amsterdam.

Open kitchen, moody hostess in a white dress, chill dude in a wife beater and shorts. Off to a good start. The smell hits you first. You know it's gonna slap. Beef noodle soup lands sweet, but balanced. Chunks of fatty beef melt right in. Kai lan for crunch. Table’s got vinegar, chili, everything you need to dial in your bowl. No gimmicks. Just good food. I’d come back, easy.

Once phenomenal for local Thais, but now very mediocre touristy, with lemongrass, ginger, galangal, and other hard herbs, along with woody herbs like holy basil and coriander, replaced by dried and powdered spices. The menu is now much more focused on simple, quick "Wok to Go" fare than "real" Thai cuisine. It's a complete mess to finally seat two tables after a half-hour wait for four people. 🤷🏻‍♂️ What a shame.

the foods are niceeee. tried the chicken tom yam and the seasoning is strong. i like it

Delicious as in Thailand, wow! A simple restaurant on a quiet side street, worth every penny

Amazing thai food! We had the spring rolls and pad thai Don’t miss this place

Small eatery, with great food and staff. Must try.

Fantastic authentic Thai restaurant. Friendly staff and great food. We ordered the Phad Sie-Eiew pork and the Kaeng massaman curry. Both are fantastic and Large portions

The food is delicious, prices are low and portions are generous! Highly recommended

Authentic Thai Experience! As a Thai person, I highly recommend this restaurant. The food is truly authentic—delicious, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. It genuinely feels like you're dining in Thailand! Everything is prepared and served by Thai people, and the whole place is Thai-run, which really adds to the authenticity. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. A wonderful place to enjoy real Thai food!

One of the most authentic Thai restaurant in Amsterdam city center with a great variety of dishes. They don’t take reservations, so be aware around dinner time it gets veryyy busy where you’d have to wait outside between 30min-1 hr for a table. But once inside the food is quickly served within 10-20min. Absolutely recommendable ⭐️

Aroy kha!!!! But staff talk alot kinda ruined my appetite.

A long time favorite of ours! Quick and efficient service, the mains and sides never disappoint! Anyone should come, truly!

The lady working there she’s not really friendly and how she talks to clients as we getting the food for free

Stumbled upon Phu Thai Thai Take Away near Nieuwmarkt and it’s a legit Thai food haven! The pad thai was bursting with flavor—perfectly tangy and just the right spice. Tried the som tam too, and it was fresh, zesty, and had that authentic kick. The cafe-style setup feels homey, with super friendly staff who make you feel like a regular. Prices are a steal for Amsterdam (~€12-15 for a main). It’s busy with locals and delivery drivers, so grab a table early or go for takeaway. 5 stars, I’m already craving more! 🍜
