Thai Deum is a Thai Specialty Restaurant

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.

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.

Fine Thai,Good flavors,sweet staff,

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

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

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!

Big FAN!!!! Thailand tast

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!

Wonderful people running the place and good food. I only do take away from here though.

Heerlijk gegeten! Aardig personeel
Uitstekende keuze!

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

Aangename ontdekking: goed eten, breed assortiment en aardig personeel

Heerlijke curry! Knus

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!

3 dollars for tap water. Scumbags!

Lekker Thais eten, de gebakken rijst alleen al is lekker

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

Stopped by Saturday at around 8:30pm and it was not very busy. The food was delicious. One of the better pad thais that I’ve had! We also ordered #162 (don’t remember the name, but it is beef with onions, mushrooms, and chilis) and I liked that too. We decided to make this our Go To Thai place.

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

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. Vegetarian options: Lots of soups, noodles and fried rice dishes for vegetarians.

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.

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!

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.

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

The service was okay at first as my apetizer came pretty fast, a tom yam soup. But then the main dishes took forever to make. I estimate we were waiting for more than an hour in total for those.

When they finally came, 2 curries, one green and one red, they turned out very bland and not the usual level of spiciness that I'd expect from a Thai restaurant. Especially the green curry was a disappointment.

I'm not going back here, sadly, as I liked the ambiance and the way they laid out the tables.

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.

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!

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

Great flavours

Original thai food. Good quality and service.

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!

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

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.

Goed thais eten met vriendelijke bediening!

פשוט טעים

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

De beste Thai van Amsterdam. Ga zelf proeven en genieten.

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!

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

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.

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.

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 🙂

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

Bof

Lekker en niet duur met vriendelijke mensen

The cooking is fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was nice.

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

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

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

This has been our favorite Thai in Holland for about a decade now. The one dish you have to try – as we’ve found it to be one of the best ever – is Pad Thai: thin noodles, own recipe for fish sauce, spicy yet super flavorful, not oily but “dry” yet stir fried. When you check other reviewers you’ll see the Pad Thai mentioned often. That’s for a reason.Super nice & sweet people, great service, and very hard working. Love them!

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

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

Wonderful people running the place and good food. I only do take away from here though.

Best, most authentic Thai I have had in Amsterdam so far. Easy for a vegetarian. Everything I have had has tons of flavor. Sometimes it is more sweet or spicy than other times but I just specify and it's perfect. The ladies who cook are all very sweet. As with many places in Amsterdam, it can take what feels like forever to get your food but it's worth the wait.

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