Really good dragon roll. Massaman curry was pretty good as well. Crab Rangoon tasted fresh but had very little filling.

Visited this gem over the weekend! Wonderful service! The food was great. I am always terrified to eat Thai food because I don’t like hot/spicy food. I asked for no spice and they made it perfectly.

My wife and I love Thai food, (we’ve both been to Thailand), and we wanted to check out this place because it was near home. The green curry was just ok but the phad thai was SUPER salty. I usually eat on the saltier side, so if it was too salty for me, it’s way too much salt.

Thai Nivas used to be one of our favorite Thai places. It’s gone downhill for several reasons. The servers and the owners appear to not be enjoying themselves, and that attitude doesn’t make for those dining inside the restaurant to really feel welcome. The food used to be very carefully spiced with the flavors you expect in a really good Thai meal. Fresh basil, for example, is one item you expect in a significant quantity, and curry powder in many dishes. A curry dish should be flavored so that the curry stands out, but the Thai Nivas spicing is somewhat too mild. On the Pad Thai, while there’s likely to be some sugar, Thai Nivas has somewhat overdone the sugar, then misses on not only the basil, but other spices that provide the wonderful smell of a good Pad Thai. The fresh rolls, with vegetables and wrappers, also are in need of spices. The food is still OK, but Thai Nivas is no longer a place to reliably get excellent food.

Very bad experience I felt here. We went at around 8 clock and it had still 1hr left to close. We order several items such as Tom Yum chicken soup, Basil fried rice and Spicy Tuna hand roll. It was not so good. Soup was watery and rice was so simple. It wasn’t thai taste. Also quantity was not enough for 2 persons. Not Recommend sorry

I came here on a Thursday afternoon and it was very quiet, nice atmosphere. I ordered the basil fried rice to go and waited not too long for it to be ready. They definitely made it fresh, you could taste that for sure!! Also they are accomodating for allergies or dietary restrictions. Service was kind and pleasant, checking in with me while I waited. Portions are generous – it was 2 meals for me. So good. Thank you!

Love this place. I’ve tried many different items. I also tried tofu. DELICIOUS! They were all fantastic. The server now knows us because we go often. A quiet peaceful restaurant. Very relaxing & wonderful food.

Went with another couple who had been here before (except us). Everyone got something different and we got an appetizer for the table. Everyone agreed that their meal was good and everyone joined the cleaned plate club. I had the Khaw Moo Dang and was expecting something slightly more flavorful, but it was still very good. The servers were friendly and courteous. We were not rushed out at the end of the meal but sat and caught up on conversation while drinking tea.

I came here on April 13, 2022. This has to be the worst Thai food I’ve ever had. The mushrooms in the soup were raw, and the rest of the soup tasted average. The service was satisfactory. The food was of poor quality for the price. I would not recommend coming here. Go to Chiang Mai or Fork & Stix.
