I live beside this restaurant and eat there several times a week. I really like it because the price is fair, the place is very nice and the employees are so kind. They have vegan/vegetarian options, just ask for them. You may not feel very safe after 9pm at this street, but be cautelous and take a taxi if it... More

The menu is small, but if you like pad thai noodles or Thai curry, you are in for a treat. I'm probably one of the few people who love Thai food but don't like pad thai, so I passed on the noodle dishes and got the green curry with chicken. It takes a while for the curry to arrive so... More

I was back to My Thai last week and seems that service improved a lot since my 1st visit. Food was cheap and great - we were 4 and took a "Starters Special Menu" = 4 different choices of Thai starters. We did two times as the first round just open our appetite... Good choice and very good value of... More

My husband and I went to My Thai not expecting anything extraordinary but we were pleasantly surprised, the food was very fresh and tasty. We ordered the "Specials Sampler" (Especial Degustação), the portions were generous and we took the leftovers home. They were delicious the next day. I find the food here much better than in the upscale Thai restaurants... More

Prices for each dish have increased by R2-R10 depending on the dish. Pad Thai shrimp is about R28.95 and chicken red/ green curry served with rice R24.95. Appetizers were really delicious but portion was small. We had the Mint pork bags, Shrimp in a basket and Chicken Satai. They were really generous with their sauces thou. I would recommend traveling... More

Not really authentic thai food taste... Environment is like a fast food place. You pay at the counter. Staff is very friendly. Typical Thai. Haha, but there are no Thais in this restaurant or kitchen. Go there if you need something Asian.

Don't understand all the good ratings about this place. Follow the good advices and we decided to go to the best restaurant in Rio. The moment we arrived we thought: what a mistake. The restaurant layout is like a fast food place and does not worth to take a cab to go all the way there for dinner. It was... More
