Moo Yai Thai Restaurant

Fresh, hot and delicious! My favorite Thai restaurant for ‘drunken noodle’. Takeout and watch the sunset at the beach! Thank you Mama Sang for the love that goes into your dishes!

Update: Moo Yai Thai was featured on Diners Drive-ins and Dives. Season 42 episode 21. Watch On Demand. This place opened on April 2019. They started off with basic Thai dishes. Drinks, my current favorite is the coconut water with coconut meat. Also try the traditional Thai iced tea or the Thai tea with lime juice. Apps, I love the curry puffs. The pastry is very light and the stuffing is delish! Actually get the Moo Yai sampler and that will include the puffs, chicken satay, pork skewers and dumplings. Dumplings by the way has good portion of ground pork. Let me just state my favorite dishes Pad Thai chicken Steak salad Coconut soup with chicken Pineapple fried rice Seafood fried rice (good portion of crab meat!) Specials (dine in only) Steak cut in strips Crispy duck Pork cooked 2

Here in Sept of 2025. I’m wondering if anyone is feeling the same way about this place as me. Don’t love leaving mediocre reviews bc I know how it can harm a business, but feel compelled since I am a true Thai food lover and this place has not been it for me. I’m from North Jersey originally and NYC where Thai food is usually easy to come by and delicious. Down here, it’s not so common. This place is the closest one to us so we usually order out of proximity. The flavors are bland and there’s not much richness to the food. For over $18 a meal, I feel like it should be much better. Am I alone?

Best Thai I’ve had around here in a longgggg time. The papaya salad is super authentic! I ordered takeout from here and everyone at the restaurant was extremely nice, didn’t take long at all, and the food was still hot when I arrived home. The Thai fried rice was excellent and the curries were also authentic and very flavorful. I do think the mango sticky rice should be slightly saltier like it is in Thailand, but it still hit the spot. I’m so excited about this place - it’ll be my next go-to for Thai in this area!

I ordered drunken noodles with chicken. This is no exaggeration, they were the best I have ever had. It was so good. The noodles were perfect, not all stuck together. The flavor was perfect, not sweetened to make up for the right spice. I will go many times again. The little 4-year old hostess was also remarkable!
