This is a must do in Old Town. Right on the river at the end of King Street this really cute restaurant is funky, and the food is delectable. We go at least once a week for the chicken satay and garden rolls. Service is excellent, and food is delectable. Very inexpensive, yet the restaurant is upscale enough for date... More

My first experience with Thai food and it wasn't enjoyable. Was able to score a great seat upstairs by the window which allowed for some people watching, watching the boats on the Potomac, and watching the planes descending into National. The food, however, was quite disappointing. I had a noodle dish with shrimp - can't remember the name. When the... More

There is something that happens to restaurants that debut with flourish and praise. They generally have no place to go but down. Such is the case with Mai Thai in Old Town Alexandria, VA. There is now a sameness to the Thai dishes. Just ordinary. Service is indifferent, as if the servers are poorly motivated by management. While the dishes... More

Mai Thai is a stone's throw from the Poatomac River in the upscale Old Town setion of Alexandria. There are many tempting eateries in this area we were visiting and took a chance on MAI THAI. We were certainly glad we did because this is the best Pad Thai I have had the pleasure to eat. I was kind of... More

I have expereince this resturant in the evening before and I would have rated there food above average, however this time. The food was not prepared well, The noodles were over cooked & the rice sticky. We requested to be seated upstairs by a window for the view of the water. The hostee was not pleased to seat us there.... More

We were able to get a table upstairs on a Saturday night at 6:30pm, by the window. Our son loved looking at the boats on the Potomac. They don't have a kids menu, but they do have high chairs. The food was really good.

Mai Thai is our "go to" spot in Old Town. The decor is hip and modern and the service is incredible. All of the food is very fresh and tasty. We always get appetizers, a main entree and get the sticky mango rice for dessert, it is to die for. This place has been consistently great for the many years... More

This restaurant is very beautiful and is in a great location. Inside you have the option of sitting upstairs to enjoy the view and peace. Or sitting downstairs at the bar to watch sports. That is the coolest thing about it - a sports bar where you can eat Thai food? Yum! The decor is beautiful though, and it is... More

Great location by the river, outdoor seating and the decor inside is really nice. I like to sit on the upper level as you have a nice view of the river and they have these huge lights and colorful decor that hangs from the ceiling over the open 1st floor. The food is good and consistent and the small bar... More
