" Chaya Thai feels like a little secret away from the hustle. I indulged in their curry dish and was pleasantly surprised by the authenticity of the flavors. It was a bit busy when I visited, but the owner made sure everyone was attended to. A lovely place for good food in a relaxed setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you crave authentic Thai food, Chaya Thai is a must-visit! I had the yellow curry and it was honestly one of the best I've had outside of Thailand. The ingredients were fresh and the spices were spot on! The owner is a delight, running the whole place like a pro. Can’t wait to bring my friends here for dinner soon! The only downside was that it took a while for food to arrive, but it was well worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" Another delightful visit to Chaya Thai! The owner really pours her heart into her cooking. The tom yum soup was out of this world, full of flavors and spices. I also tried the dumplings which were some of the best I’ve had. The pricing is fair, especially for how good the food is. I love supporting such a hardworking business! The only complaint I have is that it can be a bit slow during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chaya Thai has a charming atmosphere with lovely service, but the food needs a bit of fine-tuning. The Pad See Ew was decent but lacked depth in flavor. The owner was very engaging, ensuring we were well taken care of. Overall, it's a nice place that could improve on its recipe authenticity. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant dinner at Chaya Thai recently. I was impressed by the hospitality of the owner—she’s a wonderful host! The food had great flavor, but I did find the Pad Thai a bit on the sweeter side than what I'm used to. Still, the ambiance made for a lovely evening. Worth a visit if you're in the area looking for some Thai food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chaya Thai is a cozy little spot that deserves more love! The garlic fried rice was flavorful, and the spring rolls were delightful! The owner was very sweet and made me feel right at home. It's a small place, so it might get busy, but it's definitely worth the wait for a delicious meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Chaya Thai on my way home and was thrilled with my meal! The shrimp fried rice had just the right spice and flavor! The woman who runs the place was so warm and welcoming. This is the kind of restaurant you want to support. It's small, cozy, and feels very authentic. I'll be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)
