I ordered some food and the taste was okay. Not the best Thai food i’ve ever had. The place is a little run down but the server was friendly. However, I found bug legs (appears to be from a cockroach) in my summer roll. When I brought it to the servers attention he claimed it was from “the shrimp antennae” which is simply not true. The first review I left had also been deleted so it seems they’re not trustworthy.

Absolutely wonderful and charming experience at one of our favorite Thai restaurants in CT. We drive over 40 minutes to visit Dirk (a wonderful character, who always shares funny stores) and his family business. The coconut dishes are where it’s at: Tom Kar soup, Wild Boar basil, and coconut ice cream have me salivating writing this review. It’s a small, homely space but just goes great with the family experience. Thank you Dirk and everyone at green Papaya. Can’t wait to visit again.

I am on a very strict diet (vegan, oil free, sugar free). I don’t even go to restaurants because of the accommodations I need but Green Papaya has been such a blessing. They are so attentive to the needs and accomodations of their customers. You can feel secure eating at the Green Papaya knowing that you are eating of the highest quality and the most honest. Each vegetable is hand cut and this really is home cooked meal restaurant. Everything you eat feels infused with love and is cooked and prepared by the lovely wife of the very entertaining and kind waiter that is always ready to have a conversation with you. I have been going to this family owned restaurant for years and have always greatly enjoyed my time there. Through the good and the bad this restaurant has stayed strong and it is the BEST place to invest in on a night out for dinner. I could not recommend it more.

Incredible food!! My wife and I got takeout and were just blown away by the flavors and freshness. Dirk, the owner, was extremely personable, knowledgeable and welcoming. We didn’t get to meet his wife as he said she handles the kitchen, but our compliments to the chef!! We will definitely be back to dine in next time. The two dishes we tried were the “Tiger Cry” and the “Pad Thai Crispy Chicken”. Also the Belgium mousse was very good, looking forward to returning soon!

Grateful to the charming company I dined with and atmosphere (2nd date); the accommodating host/waiter and the kitchen! I felt really at ease asking questions, sharing my food allergies and trusting the employees know what items would quench my cravings.

I just ate at Green Papaya for the first time and had a wonderful experience. The restaurant is family owned. When you walk in you are greeted by the friendly owner who made sure our experience was amazing. The food is made by his wife, and was the most authentic Thai food I’ve had in CT. Definitely check this place out! I will be back 🙂

Green papaya has been my family’s go to restaurant for years. Every birthday, holiday, family gathering, and anniversary green papaya is our #1 choice. Not only is the food excellent but we love the staff and always have an amazing time thanks to the owner Dirk. We love the warm and welcoming family atmosphere. If you love Thai food definitely consider supporting this local restaurant owned by a hardworking family!

Just had a great night out with my girls! Food was amazing and the service was superb as always! We love having our bookgroup here because we have always had excellent eats and friendly service. Not much else you can ask for in a night out. The Green Papaya never disappoints!

I don’t understand how this place could have anything less than 5 stars. I’ve been coming here for years and is hands down the best Thai food I’ve ever had. The environment is calm and cozy and it’s a small family run business. Derek is always super attentive and kind on the front end, and his wife makes the BEST Thai food! I don’t know why anyone says they had a rude experience because that seems like the exact opposite of my interactions with them in the years I’ve been going! They’re super kind and friendly people. Oftentimes they get busy but it’s just one person waiting the tables and his wife with a couple helpers in the back churning out these dishes. I’ve never had to wait long.
