Thai Deum is a Thai Specialty Restaurant

Gutes Essen, netter Service, passable Preise

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!

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

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

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.

Heerlijke curry! Knus

Echt maar 3 sterren waard.
De curry was goed. De sate werd niemand blij van en de pad thai was ook medium.

Pluspunt geen plastic bakjes!

Really nice meal – wasn’t sure what to expect but the red and green curries were delish and the staff super friendly

Normally good food, however, the has been getting service particularly awful. They take too many takeout orders and accept too many people walking in and staff is so reduced that wait times are extended to over an hour. Food was not as great as was the case before because they were so rushed- they're just throwing the ingredients together. Never again. Sorry guys you lost us.

Nice quiet place where you can talk. Friendly owners. Food lacked flavour and freshness. Pad Thai had burned vegetables. Couldn’t taste the basil in the Kra-pauw.

Awesome food and very nice people!

interior is lovely, you can see them cook your food at the front with the open kitchen, and the decor was very authentic. plates and cutlery really reflected Thailand too!

service was great, speedy and attentive, staff were really friendly.

food was great although a bit sweet for me. good spice levels and very tasty – still authentic 🙂

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 🙂

Eten was heerlijk. De serveerster was heel aardig.

Tasty and big portion! อร่อยค่ะ ข้าวผัดคือดีมากกกกกกกก อยากได้รสชาติแบบไหนทางร้านใจดีปรุงแต่งเพิ่มเติมให้ได้

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

We were staying very close to this restaurant and decided to eat there on our first night in Amsterdam – fantastic thai. Beef massaman was lovely, as was the pad thai and red chicken curry. Special mention for the chicken and prawn spring rolls and satay chicken, totally delicious. Reminded us of our favourite thai restaurant at home. Super fast service but we were there early, not sure what it would be like when the place was full.

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.

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!

My favorite thai resturant in Amsterdam. Their fried rice is the best in town , it’s exactly like in Thailand even better than some resturant in Thailand i could say ! (Im thai so i know it 😂) Highly recommend to visit and tried thier food , the chefs are really friendly and polite. You won’t regret going there for sure, i garantee it:)

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.

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?

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!

Goede Thai maar waarom zijn de garnalen gerechten zo prijzig?129. Koeng Yai Chu-chee ** no.6-8 (3st.) € 28,50 Grote garnalen in een rode kerriesaus130. Koeng Yai Phad Hed-Sod * no.6-8 (3st.) € 28,50 Geb. grote garnalen met champignons en bosuien131. Koeng Yai Phad Phong Karie * no.6-8 (3st.) € 28,50 Geb. grote garnalen met ei, bosuien en kerriepoederDeze drie gerechten waren altijd rond de 16 euro en opeens was daar deze prijsverhoging. Onacceptabel!

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!

Been back every year at IBC time since being introduced to this resturant.
Food is incredibly fresh and flavorful and basically cooked in front of you or at least in plain site. Its not far from the Okura where my company stays every year and I always "sneak" away for some of it.

This visit I had Spring Rolls, Pad Thai, and Chicken Fried Rice- I packed and left with approx 50% of what I was served boxed up, and it made for a great late nite meal at the hotel.

The Pad Thai was superb, crunchy veggies, fresh onion, and egg with the right amount of meat, the noodles had justest right amount of firmness. Fantastic.

Rice- Same, superb. Spring rolls, excellent.

The portions are generous, (and Im an American) and I've never left hungry.

Bring cash –

If you are in Amsterdam its worth the walk, ride, or cab to try 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.

Original thai food. Good quality and service.

I’ve come here 3 separate times on 3 separate trips. Every time fantastic.

Fine Thai,Good flavors,sweet staff,

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

Gisteravond na het werk met een collega wilden wij eten halen. Beiden bestelden wij een saté en ok bestelde een losse bak gebakken rijst. Het gezamenlijke bedrag was €18 ( 2x€7 voor de saté en €4 voor de bevallen rijst) na afrekenen en wachten op ons eten vertelde de jonge man dat ik nog €11 moest betalen… ik vroeg waarom waarop hij mij vertelde dat dat nog betaald moest worden voor de gebakken rijst……
Dus ik betaal €15 euro voor een bakkie rijst vroeg ik hem. Waarom de eigenaresse en de kok mij de wind van voren gaven en zeiden dat je geen rijst alleen kan bestellen, alleen volledige menu’s. Prima zei ik maar zeg het dan alvorens je afrekend…. Dan heb ik een keuze het wel of niet te doen. De vrouw en kok bleven schreeuwen en vonden dit kennelijk normaal. Na de vraag van de jonge man of wij ons eten nog wilden hebben wij vriendelijk bedankt, geld terig gekregen en weggegaan. Mij zie je hier niet meer, jammer want ik moet heel eerlijk zeggen dat hun eten goed is dus raad ik het mbt het eten een ieder nog steeds aan maar de manier waarop ik door de kok en ( mogelijk) eigenaresse werd bejegend was ronduit onbeschoft. De jonge man was overigens erg behulpzaam en wilde de boel sussen, mijn respect voor hem.

A Chef with a clear passion for Thai food. I love her cooking!

The food was very good however the service was lacking. We were seated quickly and our order was taken. The food was delivered quickly however after that the staff got very busy with take away orders. I think we waited 30-40 minutes for our bill.

Viskoekjes en rode curry echt heerlijk

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.

Bof

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

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!

excellent food!

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

Delicious food, with quick and friendly service. A wide and varied menu with plenty of vegetarian options. The decor and ambiance were wonderful as well. The kitchen is open so you can watch the cooks from your table if you would like. We will definitely be coming back.

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.

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!

Heerlijk eten. Traditionele uitstraling. Vriendelijk personeel.

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

Oh my great love, dearest Thai food.

Bij Thai Deum kom ik aan mijn wekelijkse portie Thai food 🙂
Niet de aller aller allerbeste van Amsterdam, maar wel zeker een zeer goede competitor!

De curry's zijn heerlijk! Maar weet je wat echt superrrrr lekker is?

De soepjes!! Jammie jammie. Kokos met garnalen, kip of vega, maakt niet uit. Allemaal even lekker. Even de stukken gember en citroengras er tussenuit vissen, dat dan weer wel.

5 eurotjes voor 1 portie.
Heerlijk voor de zondagmiddag als je toch al uitgebreid geborreld hebt.

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

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

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.👎

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.

Excellent Thai food

Nice food

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

The food here ranges from very solid to unbelievably delicious. The Tom Ka Khai soup in particular is a bowl of absolute lusciousness and will make you fall in love with Thai food all over again. Chicken satay are a little more delicious than average. One of the house "speciality" dishes, wild boar with red curry, was very good, and chock full of veggies, although my hubs found the boar itself a little tough. On another visit we tried green curry chicken as a comparison, and it had far fewer veggies and, perhaps as a result, not as complex or deep a flavor as the red curry boar. Spicy beef salad was a bit different that I am accustomed to, being made with ground beef rather than sliced, but the flavor was good, if a tiny bit too spicy for me. Tell them your spice level, because they work hard to then customize to you. The kitchen is right up and front and you can see, hear and smell all the cooking – a wonderful appetizer! The ladies running the kitchen could not be sweeter or more impressive with their works, and the server is also very friendly and remembered us after our first visit. This is *just* the kind of place I wish I had in my neighborhood, and would come here every week or two if I did. Stop by and enjoy.

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.

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! 😉

Ordered: Phad Thai Deum, tom kha koenServing time: appetizers 13 minutes, main dishes 34 minutesA 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.

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