" This is my go-to Thai restaurant in DC! The flavors are on point, especially the Massaman curry, which is packed with spices and textures. The service was friendly, but they seemed a bit overwhelmed during peak hours. I definitely plan to return and try out more dishes from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" So many tasty options! I went to Soi 38 for a small family celebration, and everyone was pleased with their food. The highlight for me was the crispy spring rolls with that zesty dip – absolutely delicious! The only downside was the wait for our check which was a bit long. Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delightful experience overall. The service was attentive, the food was hot and full of flavor. I enjoyed the seafood dishes, but felt that the dessert menu was lacking in options. Still, this place is a great option for a nice dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is literally a hidden gem! The first time I tasted their green curry, I was transported to Bangkok! It was spicy yet flavorful, with ingredients that tasted fresh and vibrant. The overall vibe of the place is also charming. Just be wary of the crowd during weekends as it gets quite busy, which can lead to slower service. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m half Thai, and I have to say Soi 38 delivers on authentic flavors. I had the som tum salad, which had a nice crunch and spice that reminded me of home. The atmosphere is vibrant, perfect for date nights or casual dining. Do go early or be prepared for a wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" We arrived on a busy Friday night and still our waiter was excellent. The atmosphere was energetic, and the food was top-notch. If you love Thai food that actually tastes like it belongs in Thailand, you need to try this place. Every dish was well-executed! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Soi 38 and found it to be a delightful surprise! The ambiance is comfortable, and the food presentation is beautiful. I tried the yellow curry and was blown away by the depth of flavor! Definitely a place I would revisit when I'm in town again. " (*Curated Review*)
