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.

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.

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 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!

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!

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.

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

Best pad Thai ever!

Geweldig lekker gegeten, de soepen zijn overheerlijk en op de hoofd gerechten valt helemaal niets aan te merken zelfs de prijs niet. Toppie lieve koks uit Thailand.

Een paar jaar geleden had ik hier ook al is gegeten en was is ziek geworden toen ik thuis kwam. Toen met mijn nieuwe partner ben ik weer is gaan eten op zijn aanraden maar was al niet zo vol meer van deze Thai aangezien de eerste keer eten daar me echt doodziek heeft gemaakt maar goed. Daar aan gekomen had ik een soep Tom Yang koeng besteld en een salade met kip gehakt met Thaise kruiden. De soep kreeg ik later dan mijn hoofdgerecht en proefde naar niets echt rioolwater zou nog beter smaken. En de kipgehakt salade was ook niet te eten en er zaten kruiden in met een vieze na smaak. Vriendelijk melden ik dat ik niet tegen de kruiden kon die ze er in hadden gedaan en toen zei de bedienster / kok ja daar kan ik niks aan doen dat is een traditionele Thaise salade. Ik had echt iets van pardon ik was zo woest. Echt een slechte service en klant onvriendelijk. Eet daar nooit meer! Ieder ander restaurant zou wat improviseren of je compenseren op de bon. Maar nee hoor gewoon de volle pond betalen van iets waar ik letterlijk maar 1 hap van had gegeten. Invervolg eet ik alleen maar bij Naan Naam in oud zuid waar ze goede service en heerlijk eten hebben.

Eten is heerlijk, helaas weinig keus in wijn. Komen vooral veel afhaal klanten langs, klein stukje is ook als eetcafe ingericht.

First–I am not comparing this to actual Thai food, I came here fully expecting subpar interpretation of mass produced Thai food for Westerners–it is awful by that standard. It is awful by the standard of what I would expect to be served on a discount Asian airline. Expect parang curry without sauce. Or pad Thai without peanuts or spring rolls without any filling…it's the Thai food equivalent of what can be microwaved. Here's the best part–when we told them it wa bad. They said it was my problem. They should apologize the the kind people Thailand for making their food so bad.

4 US tourists, picked on proximity to hotel. Very positive experience Great food. Great service. Very small typical thai restaurant, cooking right in front of shop. Lots of takeout so i orders arrived a little slow but we were in no hurry so no big deal

Nice food

De owners are the worst. I saw them treating. their staff very rudely and unethically, They come across in front of the customers very nice but in reality they treat very unkindly to the people who work under them in the kitchen. Not nice people so never going there back. Going there means supporting abuse so a big NO.👎

I’ve had dinner here and ordered takeaway numerous times. The food is tasty and reasonably priced with more authentic flavors than what you often encounter in Amsterdam. The interior is a bit old but charming and the atmosphere very relaxed. The service is friendly. My only issue is that servings of rice are a bit small and I think it’s odd to charge for extra but it’s not a big deal.

Great little restaurant. Massive menu – we asked for the best picks and were very happy with the suggestions. Excellent service! Yummy.

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.

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

As a huge fan of Thai food, I’m always on the lookout for new places to try in Amsterdam. Every now and then, you come across a restaurant that truly stands out—and Thai Deum is definitely one of those places.

I ordered the Neua Nam-Man-Hooy and asked if they could make it extra spicy. Not only did they happily accommodate my request, but when I jokingly asked if they could make it extra extra spicy, they brought me freshly made Prik Nam Pla. That level of care and authenticity immediately won me over.

The food was simply divine. Every bite was packed with incredible flavor and it genuinely tasted like it had been made with love. This was hands down one of the most flavorful Thai dishes I’ve had in Amsterdam.

What made the experience even better was the service. The team was incredibly welcoming, and I had a lovely conversation with the lady behind the cash register. It’s those personal touches that turn a great meal into a memorable experience.

Exceptional food, wonderful people, and a genuine passion for what they do. This was definitely not my last visit to Thai Deum—I can’t wait to come back and explore more of the menu!

Heerlijk gegeten bij Thai Deum, goede kwaliteit met Laotiaans tintje.

Kip cashew was heerlijk. Rode curry ook erg lekker. Gegeten in het restaurant.

Beste Thai v A’dam

Cute atmosphere but service was just okay and my Pad Thai tasted burnt. Chicken satays didn’t have much flavor. I wouldn’t return.

Great food – small price !

Tasty Thai food. Good service.

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!

We hebben daar met zijn tweeën gegeten en we zijn teleurgesteld in onze verwachtingen. De service was spijtig: Straalt geen sfeer uit, bediening is soms onduidelijk en het is vooral niet gezellig. Het eten was ‘oké’, maar niet meer dan dat. Prijs/kwaliteit voor ons niet meer voor herhaling vatbaar.

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

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

Heel gezellig en heerlijke cuisine! De medewerkers zijn gastvrije en de keuken was heel leker! Een aanrader in Amsterdam!! Haartelijk bedankt!

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

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!

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

i'm soo happy there's a yummy thai place in my hood! my litmus test for a good thai restaurant is their pad thai. i'm happy to say their pad thai is delicious. the sauce is wonderful and squeeze a lime all over that and it's even better. i also got the basic thai salad with chicken. it wasn't the typical green papaya salad but just a lettuce salad with veggies and chicken. the salad itself is nothing special, they use iceburg. BUT… the dressing on it is out of this world. i was almost going to ask if i could buy some of it. it turned an ordinary salad into something unforgettable. i like the coziness of this place. it's not large but not to small with a wood interior and exterior. they have a full bar too! the kitchen is up front right when you walk in which is very smart. you're immediately hit with the fragrance of thai food. i wouldn't say this place is good for large groups but for 2-6 ppl tops.
the staff and chefs are all very friendly. when i'm in the mood for thai and i don't want to venture to far from home this is the place. they also do a lot of to go orders. i made sure to get a to go menu for those nights you just want to oink out at home 🙂

Het was prima eten maar niet meer dan dat. Super lieve mensen. Vegetarian options: Genoeg keuze Dietary restrictions: Genoeg keuze

Gutes Essen, netter Service, passable Preise

My pregnant wife and I were sat in the park when we discussed the idea of getting some thai cuisine. I had passed this restaurant on my bicycle on several occasions and so we decided to go there. The interior of the restaurant is small, ornate and quite charming. The staff were friendly and we ordered some spicy seafood soup (my pregnant wife) and a red chicken curry (me). The food was, frankly, delicious. Spicy and flavourful. Why, then, not 5 stars I hear you ask? The simple answer is that the portion sizes were slightly too small. For the price, we expected more rice and to be left full (especially as my wife is eating for two!!) We had a lovely time though. The food was high quality and we will certainly be returning to try out the rest of the menu!

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.

Na honderd-en-één Thaise restaurants te hebben uitgeprobeerd kan ik maar één ding concluderen: dit is de beste Thai in Amsterdam. Je kan er afhalen, maar er staat ook een stuk of tien tafeltjes waar je gezellig aan kan eten met een Chang biertje in de hand.

De service is goed en snel. In de keuken staan twee koks gekleed in witte kokspakken, gepassioneerd aan de lopende band de gerechten te maken. De keuken is open, ziet er brandschoon uit en als je afhaalt kan je precies zien wat ze in de gloeiend hete wok gooien. Al komt er soms een onbeduidend poedertje uit een bakje of een schep saus onder een deksel vandaan. Ik heb hier altijd goed gegeten. Aanraders zijn de Pad Thai met kip, Thom Ka Kai en de gele en rode curry. Pas wel op, als er drie pepertjes bij staan, is het zo heet dat de meeste mensen dit niet kunnen eten. Je kan altijd vragen of ze het minder pittig maken.

Best aan de prijs, maar dat mag ook wel voor deze kwaliteit en de hoeveelheden.

The staff is very nice and the food is very good the price is also good

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.

Wat een heerlijk klein écht Thais restaurantje. De ontvangst en het vaarwel blijven je door het heerlijke enthousiasme absoluut bij….
Het eten (Pad Thai) was heerlijk. De sfeer is is niet meer helemaal van nu, maar ik hou er wel van…. Je waant je weer even in Thailand….

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’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!

Heerlijk gegeten

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!

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?

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

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

Is een van onze favoriete plekken geworden. Altijd goede kwaliteit.

Viskoekjes en rode curry echt heerlijk

Awesome little place. Our favorites are the red curry with chicken and beef with long green bean. Small restaurant but worth it for the excellent food and service.

One of the best thai restaurants in town. Great staff great stuff
