★★★★☆ 4.0 Anthony Camina · Jan 2026

Stopped in for dinner. Staff was friendly but warned that they were booked because of reservations but could seat us if we would be done after an hour. It was no problem so we agreed. The interior was beautiful and atmosphere was sophisticated with genuine thai decor. The food also came out quickly and was beautiful to look at. I liked the touch of adding ground peanuts on top of the pad thai with lime. However the pad thai was way too sweet compared to what I had regularly in Thailand. The padseeiu was better but still on the sweet side. The broth in my Tom yum was excellent but adding quartered button mushrooms took away from the dish. You are supposed to use straw mushrooms or at least sauté and slice the button mushrooms so you don't have chunks of Styrofoam floating in the otherwise f

Chalits Thai Bistro quickly became one of our go-to spots. I love their cucumber salad, the Thai tea is so good, and honestly the quality of the food never misses. We have so many favorite appetizers and dishes at this point. The staff is genuinely kind and welcoming. You really can’t go wrong with Chalits.

We’ve been searching for a great Thai restaurant for a while, and Chalit’s has checked all the boxes and then some. We love their Pad Thai and have enjoyed many other dishes on the menu as well.I have never had anything I did not like! I especially appreciate being able to choose the level of spice in some of the dishes. The staff has always been kind and helpful without being overbearing, which we really value. It’s nice to be able to sit and chat without being interrupted. The atmosphere is calm and classy while still feeling relaxed and welcoming.

Delicious food, friendly staff, and cool interior decoration! We showed up at 8pm on a Friday night. Easy (and free) parking, no wait time. Very spacious and comfortable atmosphere. We ordered Tom Kha chicken soup, Thai ice tea with lime, Drunken noodles, and green curry. We had our spice level set at 2-3 out of 10 (3 was the medium hot) and it was plentiful hot! We had to adjust to the taste of the Thai ice tea with lime at first but we eventually grew to like it-- especially when it starts getting hot after eating spicy food! Everything else was delicious! Great food portion! We walked out feeling super full! Would come back again!

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Avin Patel · Mar 2026

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant, primarily because of the service. Our server never informed us about the kitchen’s last call, which is something most restaurants normally communicate to their tables as a courtesy. When we later asked about ordering additional food, we were told that the kitchen was already closed. What made the situation worse was the server’s response. Instead of acknowledging the lack of communication, he rudely replied that he “didn’t know we were planning to order more food.” That response was both dismissive and unprofessional. As guests sitting at a table, it should not be our responsibility to guess when the kitchen is closing. A simple last-call notification would have avoided the entire situation. The attitude of the server made it clea
