Crying Thaiger Rustic Thai Kitchen

No wait on a Sunday for lunch. Service was friendly. Shareable portion sizes. - Thai Omelet with Crab Paste ($15.95): Surprisingly very good despite being just an omelet. The egg was flavorful enough to be eaten on its own, but I liked the sauce too. - Crying Thaiger’s Curry with Chicken ($16.95): Crowd favorite of the things we tried. The curry was creamy, salted perfectly, and had the right amount of heat. The portion was smaller compared to the other dishes, though. - Spicy Basil Pad Thai with Chicken ($15.95): Pad Thai is what I usually order to judge a Thai place since it is the most commonly ordered dish. It can usually be a hit or miss, but the one here was tasty. The noodles had a nice bite, and the sauce was tangy and spicy (same level of spice as the curry). - Crying Thaiger ($1

Crying Thaiger in Malden is an absolute gem! The food is super tasty — full of flavor, spice, and all the good stuff you’d expect from a great Thai spot. The Thaiger Curry is a total must-try — rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. They’ve also got some really nice packaged drink options, which pair perfectly with the spicy dishes. If you’re vegetarian, you’ll love this place even more. There are tons of amazing veggie options, and they don’t feel like an afterthought — every dish tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. The vibe is casual and friendly, making it an easy spot for a chill lunch or dinner. Definitely a go-to if you’re craving bold Thai flavors!

All time favorite Thai spot. I’ve been twice, ordered a boat load of food both times, haven’t had one thing I didn’t love. What a place. 10/10 The clay pots are insane. The honey ribs are a must. Definitely get the Chinese broccoli w/ pork belly. The Thai omelette smacks. Great pad Thai with the crispy chicken.

I've eaten in the restaurant with my parents when they were visiting and the experience was great. Ordered take out this time around. This time I had the Crispy Pad Thai, steamed shrimp shumai, and steamed vege dumplings. The only improvement I would suggest for take out is to have the crispy wontons in a separate container so they don't get soggy which was the case for me. Also by the time I arrived to pick up and got my to my apt (9 min walk) my food was room temperature. I'll still visit again, but I would rethink what I would order for take out.

Probably the best food I’ve ever had. We ordered the Crying Tiger Ribeye, organic pea tea, pad Thai noodles, honey ribs, house fried rice, and coconut juice, and I couldn’t tell you which I loved more. Amazing and the service was excellent.
