Thai Deum is a Thai Specialty Restaurant

I order Laab Kai and Tom Yak Plaa for takeaway. The people in the restaurant were extremely friendly, typical Thai.The food was wonderful, the Laab Kai could have used a bit more fish sauce. I would give 4,5 stars if possible but as that’s not possible -> 5 stars.

Goed gegeten bij dit Thais restaurant aan de ceintuurbaan. De locatie is makkelijk bereikbaar met ov, met de auto wat minder vanwege de beperkte parkeergelegenheid. We zij rond 19uur zonder reservering binnengelopen en hadden het geluk dat we een tafel kregen, iets later zat de zaal vol.

We bestelden verschillende voorgerechten en twee hoofdgerechten. De masaman en een gerecht met zwijn. De voorgerecht waren goed op smaak. De masaman was prima maar heb het wel beter gegeten. Het zwijngerecht heb ik niet geproefd maar degene die hem had was er erg blij mee.

De sfeer in de zaak is gemoedelijk en inrichting voelt authentiek aan.

Authentic

Not the best tasting aperitives (fishcakes and prawns) but spring rolls and chicken OK. Duck was ok-ish and pad thai was good. Overall a bit lacking relative to price. Service was nice and friendly and the place cosy.

Teeny tiny portions, very expensive. This place is 1 block from my old home. It was always disappointing knowing that the local Thai place wasn't worth going to

Perfect zoals altijdDe beste thai van Amsterdam!Super lekker alles versSuper aardige eigenaar!

I’ve been coming here since I just moved to Amsterdam 2,5 years ago. Until today, Thai Deum is still my favourite Thai restaurant in Amsterdam: delicious food for very reasonable prices. Their green curry is unbeatable. I’ll keep on being a loyal customer. See you soon!

Ik ben helaas nog nooit in Thailand geweest! Dus ik heb jammer genoeg nog geen kennis mogen maken met de 'echte' Thaise culinaire hoogstandjes! Conclusie: Ik zal het moeten doen met de menig Thaise eettentjes hier in Amsterdam. Gelukkig heb ik er nu een gevonden die ik jullie absoluut niet wil onthouden. Thai Deum op de Ceintuurbaan!

Een restaurantje waar je eerder voorbij loopt omdat het er niet heel aanlokkelijk uitziet. Bij Thai Deum moet je de uitspraak 'less is more' in de oren knopen. Want wat ze niet waarmaken met betrekking tot de ambiance, doen ze absoluut wel met betrekking tot het eten. Als je een ultiem fan bent van de Thaise keuken dan zal je een avond Thai Deum moeten inplannen. Ben je niet in de stemming om je tussen de mensen te begeven, kan je ook afhalen!!
De keuken van Thai Deum is open dus je kan fijn gluren om te kijken hoe zei jouw eten bereiden. De samenwerking van de dames en heren is leuk om te zien. Als de bediening even bezig is met de drankjes, brengt de chef het culinaire hapje persoonlijk naar je tafel. Thai Deum heeft een uitgebreide menukaart. Vaak blijf ik trouw aan mijn favorieten gerechten en daar ben ik dan ook altijd over te spreken.

Mensen dit is een top Thai! Gewoon doen!

Prima

excellent food!

Couldn’t have gotten better food even in Thailand, we had a 5 course meal, and everything was truly authentic.

Came here on the recommendation of other yelpers. Can’t say that my experience was as good as theirs. Staff were friendly enough but we found the food way over seasoned with salt and pepper. I was not expecting the use of vermicelli for pad noodle dishes. The batter to fish ratio was way too high and could hardly taste the fish.

This difference in experience may be due to local tastes?

Tasty and big portion! อร่อยค่ะ ข้าวผัดคือดีมากกกกกกกก อยากได้รสชาติแบบไหนทางร้านใจดีปรุงแต่งเพิ่มเติมให้ได้

My friend and I were starving and really glad we found this place not too far from where we stayed. It was just opening time and they were quite busy. I took that as a good sign. We did have to wait a bit, as they had many orders for pick up. When our food finally came we were pleased. It was delicious. If I am back in the area, I will definitely stop by here again!

Sinds mijn favoriete Thai in de Pijp (Siriphon, wat een gemis) permanent gesloten is heb ik het tot nu toe twee keer geprobeerd bij Thai Deum, maar die komen helaas niet in de buurt en valt echt tegen in vergelijk met vroeger. Waar zijn de Thaise smaken? En waarom is het allemaal zo flauw? Ik heb het gevoel dat er om economische redenen wordt gekozen voor goedkope ingrediënten, want anders kan ik het niet verklaren.

Ik ga het nog een of twee keer proberen want misschien was ik daar niet op het juiste moment, maar als het dan niet beter is, ga ik op zoek naar een andere Thai. Want voor mindere kwaliteit dan bij Siriphon doe ik het namelijk niet meer en zou jij ook niet moeten doen.

We’ve eaten here over the years and it is a neighborhood staple! We often order to go and get pad thai and green curry. The pad thai is on the drier side (less saucy) which is just how we like it. Eating in is also fun with a nice dining area and also the kitchen up front!

Ordered: Phad Thai Deum, tom kha koen

Serving time: appetizers 13 minutes, main dishes 34 minutes

A decent Thai restaurant, but nothing extraordinary. Food quality is good, serving time rather disappointing. Would I visit this place again? Only if I’m around.

Viskoekjes en rode curry echt heerlijk

Conflicted on how to rate this place… Is it good Thai food? 3 stars. Is it good food? Maybe 4 stars. I got the chicken and shrimp rolls to start and then the chicken pad Thai. The rolls – they come out right when they are ready, so wait for them to cool a bit. The rolls were good. The sweet chili dipping sauce was on the bland side and very one dimensional (basically just sweet). The pad Thai was just meh. First they don't use the right noodles. Second it was on the saltier side and once again, one dimensional flavor. I was missing the subtle undertone flavors that make pad Thai great. Not sure if it had chopped peanuts or bean sprouts, if it did, it was not noticeable. At first I thought maybe my Americanized palette was used to Americanized Thai food. But then I thought of my trip to Thailand – food in Thailand has even more fuller flavors. Maybe I was spoiled living in California all my life and need to adjust to Amsterdam.

Also, I asked for hot sauce and they gave me this salty liquid with peppers. It was good but wanted something more like sambal or sriracha, but my fault. I should have asked if they had other hot sauces. The hot sauce made it better, but also saltier.

Heerlijke curry! Knus

We have been eating/ ordering here for the last 11 years. Consistently good authentic food and excellent service. It’s a family run business, with various members all doing their bit behind the open kitchen, but making sure to stop to thank you on entering and exiting.Only downside is that they don’t deliver, but this could be due to a number of reasons, including quality control, but I find the walk to them always worth it at the end.I would also argue the best Tod-man and yam neau in Amsterdam!

Heerlijk en beetje bijzonder gegeten (eend en phad Thai). Supervriendelijk personeel. Was lang niet hier geweest en heb daar spijt van!

Went with 4 people. Very cozy vibe, portion sizes were very generous and reasonably priced. Did have to wait a bit for the food, but you can tell that it’s made with love, fresh from the kitchen. … More

Vanavond hier eten afgehaald. Ben een erg grote fan van pad thai en ben zelfs speciaal naar Bangkok gevlogen om het te eten. Dat hoeft nu niet meer, want je kan hier overheerlijke pad thai eten. Super groot portie ook. Echt een aanrader. En de mensen zijn ook super lief en vriendelijk. Dikke duim voor jullie

awful Bad food Wait 2 hour No Visa card accepted Don’t come

food is excellent!! 10/10
am in Amsterdam several times a month with co workers and have lately had the absolute rudest server. will not return if she is working. usually Wed/Thurs

Ottimo ristorante Thai ad Amsterdam, le zuppe sono fantastiche, buoni anche i padthai, ed i piatti in abbinamento alle pietanze con il curry. Prezzo onesto, è possibile cenare all’esterno del locale.

It’s the Thai restaurant I know for many years now (more than 20?), and it’s atill one of the best in Amsterdam. The dishes taste different and nuanced and watching the same people cook with so much gusto really moves me. An all-time classic. Het is het Thaise restaurant dat ik het langste ken (meer dan 20 jaar?) en het blijft één van de beste restaurants in Amsterdam. De gerechten smaken uniek en onderscheidend en zien dat dezelfde mensen met nog steeds zoveel verve staan te koken, doet me echt iets. Een oprechte klassieker.

Heerlijk gegeten. Geweldige pad thai. Het is een wandelingetje meer dan waard om dan met een glimlach bediend te worden.

Heerlijk Thais gegeten met goede versbereidde authentieke gerechten, en niet te vet. Bediening was ook zeer vriendelijk!

I called and ordered the Tom kha Kai soup. The lady on the phone was super friendly and welcoming. Upon collection, again lovely and genuine service. The soup itself was fresh, delicious and authentic!

Fantastic food

Great homemade Thai food (without MSG!), very kind personnel and great atmosphere.

Super lekker. But they don’t accept credit cards. The food was really good though for the price.

Heerlijk eten, en ze doen er alles aan om het vlug mee tegeven. … More

Zeer goed eten voor een goede prijs!

Tasty little place for Thai food. This place is super tiny. Maybe 10ish tables and few of them Abe to accommodate large parties unless you get lucky. So, (especially) if you have more than 4 people and/or definitely want to get a table, call ahead for a reservation. The menu was larger than expected but tasty even though the dishes I was used to were prepared differently than I am used to.

We waited for our food for 2 hours. They don’t accept visa debit card and credit card. They wont let you know at the beginning.

Heerlijk Thais eten. Authentieke sfeer. Super-vriendelijke mensen die er werken. Hangt een familiaire sfeer. Absoluut een aanrader.

Disappointment!!!I was badly surprised today taking away dinner from them, when I realised the the dishes became so small.I was still hungry after the dinner.I am not going back there if they think they can charge the same and provide much less.

Friendly staff, took us without a reservation at peak dinner hours on a Saturday night. Unfortunately the service is incredibly slow- you can see into the kitchen so you'll notice they have a ridiculous number of take out orders. That's all fine but that plus the lack of staff (one waiter for the entire restaurant from 6:30-8pm!) makes it way too slow. 5-10 mins for a menu, 20 mins to take our order another 30-40 mins for food to come out. Then the food was ok, not mind blowing at all. Under spiced. Saw food come out piping hot- our red curry did but the spring rolls were lukewarm. The latter was better than the former though. Friendly staff but I wouldn't come back.

In Amsterdam for work and this place was close to our hotel so we decided to give it a try!

Right off the bat the service was great – the server was really helpful in navigating the menu and helping with suggestions.

The ambiance is cozy and warm and we felt very comfortable the whole meal.

Our party landed on two orders of Pad Suey (they use much smaller noodles than we are use to) but everyone agreed it was just a good! I had the red vegetable curry with rice. Very tasty…it also felt a little more healthy (less rich) than I am use to from the U.S.

Would come here again when in town next!

Als inwoner van Bangkok, weet ik wel wat Thai’s eten is en kan ik natuurlijk wel beoordelen of het identiek is als “thuis” en ik moet constateren dat ze niet alleen Thais’s spreken (zoals ik) maar ook echt Thai’s kunnen koken. Kortom een aanrader. Maar drink maar gewoon Heineken, doen we in Thailand ook

The absolute _Best_Thai_ in Amsterdam!

I have been to many thai restaurants in amsterdam, and this is the one i keep coming back to.
The staff is very ! friendly, the atmosphere is excellent. The open kitchen is on the left when u enter the restaurant. The ladies in the kitchen work very hard, and the food they produce is just top notch.
You can reserve a table (dont forget, as it is very busy most of the times!) or order food to take home. No delivery unfortunately.
Please do go to this Thai restaurant if you love Thai food, their tom Kha Khai is yummmmie!!

Kap khun kha! 😉

My boyfriend and I went here for dinner last night and it was some of the best Thai food we have ever had. What we ordered: Tom Kha soup (they made it veggie for us), Shrimp Salad, Pad Thai Veggie and Plaa Pad Namprik-Phauw (Fish with curry sauce, paprika and onion). It was all really delicious and we couldn't stop saying how good it was throughout the meal. We requested it spicy and they made it with the perfect amount of heat. The waiter also brought us some chili oil (didn't need the oil but it was a great flavor) just in case we needed to add more. He also told us that if it was already too spicy for us to let him know and they would make it again for us (appreciated but not needed). All of the food was full of flavor and not oily. We will definitely be heading back here for more!

Authentieke Thaise gerechtenHier wordt nog gekookt op de echte manier dus geen standaard aangedikte sauzen die er door worden geroerd, maar verfijnd door elk gerecht de aandacht te geven tot het op de juiste smaak is gebracht. Voor vegans is er genoeg keuze ook. Een echte aanrader als meer dan 25 jaar in Amsterdam

Heerlijk eten. Traditionele uitstraling. Vriendelijk personeel.

Good authentic Thai food. We had the tom yam goong and pork green curry, which were nice. The restaurant is a little understaffed though. Takes a bit of time to put your order.

Altijd heerlijk en goed eten bij Thai Deum. Zeer vriendelijk. Mijn favoriete thai.

I love it. My friend had mixed opinions. It was too spicy for her but many things are.
It' a small place so it smells great and really works up your appetite. The kitchen it right up front. It's clean and fun to watch the cooks at work.
I've tried a couple of the vegetarian dishes and always enjoyed them.
I've always liked the coconut ice cream served in a coconut shell but the last time we ordered it looked old and freezer burned like it had been sitting in the back of fridge for months. When we pointed it out they were quite nice, and apologized saying it was the last one but didn't charge us for it.

Goed Thai’s eten , vriendelijke bediening.Zeker de moeite waard. Prijs kwaliteit is hier zeker goed.Hou er rekening mee, betalen cash of bankkaart. Geen krediet kaard. Gelukkig zit een pin om de hoek.

The food is delicious! I just don’t like the seats very much.

The staff has limited English, but very hospitable. Coconut curry dishes were absolutely amazing! The Exotic Thai decor is very tasteful. Excellent value for money.The only drawback is that they don’t take credit card, do prepare some cash for your visit.

Food tasted ok, although very small potions for that price. What we were very borher about was that we were waiting more that 1 hour for the food and we kept seeing delivery orders going out from our table. So in the hours we were waiting for the food more than 10 orders went out to be delivered.. staff is friendly but not coming back definetly.

Horrible. Portions are a joke for the expensive price you put and the food is no good. Worst part is, when you give feedback the chef gets angry and screams at you. Such a terrible place, should be shut down!

Voor €40,- aan Thais eten gehaald bij deze tent. Eerste en laatste keer! Groente is zo groot en rauw, KrabPauw zou ik besteld hebben. Ik krijg toaal wat anders. Komt niet eens in de buurt. Ananas in de currie, echt not done ook!

I lived in Thailand for four years and this is the only place I can justify spending western prices on Thai dishes. I think the food is delicious and authentic. An absolute gem in my mind.

Authentiek Thais eten, vers gekookt, vers en smakelijk, ik begrijp niet waarom niemand dit restaurant kent? Ik hoop dat meer mensen ervoor kunnen kiezen om de groene curry kiprijst, Thaise garnalen gebakken rijst, heel goed te proberen👍❤️
