Courtside Thai Cuisine

The dishes were bursting out authentic Thai herbs! Absolutely scrumptious meals. I highly recommend the drunken rice noodles with shrimps, the pad Thai chicken/shrimp dish, or the eggplant with garlic sauce if you are a veggie lover. For appetizers, do not hesitate to order the famous chicken satay which was so flavorful, tender, and juicy. The waiters were polite and accommodating. Bravo and wish you continued success!

What a wonderful place!!! Came in here for the first time for Valentine's Day lunch with my hubby, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was fresh and delicious, the staff were soooo sweet and attentive, and I loved the extra little Valentine's Day touches like bending my straw into a heart and giving my hubby a fresh rose to give to me. Everything was perfect! Also, get the mango with sticky rice for dessert, you'll thank me later!

What a great little place! We were skeptical at first, but decided to give it a go, and we are so happy we did. The owners are super knowledgeable about the food and it was all delicious. We will definitely be back.

Surprising atmosphere in the middle of Fairfax with a gorgeous patio where you can relax and enjoy the delicious Thai dishes. The coconut soup was loaded with fresh vegetables which were cooked just right. The spring rolls were crisp and yummy. The sea lover dish had juicy shrimp and scallops (which were a little over cooked). And the lamb and veggie dish was quite good. The lamb was tasty and the veggies were perfectly cooked, with the eggplant being our favorite. Meanwhile, the presentation of these dishes were delightful. Overall, we were happy to find this gem in the middle of Fairfax.

Update having now visited in person:

The food is just as good as it was before, better maybe for not having first. The new renovations look great and the place really jumps out with a beautiful patio and an open and nicely painted interior.

Service is speedy with staff checking in frequently at every table rather than assigned to individual tables. Both people who assisted us were super friendly and seemed to care that we had a good experience.

The food was amazing, and everyone cleaned their plate. My parents had thai iced tea for the first time and adored it. Definitely in running for my favorite restaurant in Fairfax City right now.

Court side Thai is a great cozy place in downtown Fairfax. Very cute entrance. The Thai food was fantastic, I got typical pad Thai, but with scallops which were amazing. My wife got the pineapple fried rice which she also enjoyed. The court side Thai dumplings for an appetizer were perfect.

Authentic Thai cuisine with amazing service. Fully recommended with a great balance between taste, quantity, quality and price.

Me and my family have been coming here for over 10 years and it’s one of our favorite restaurants in the area- even our extended family demands to eat here when they visit! The service is wonderful with such lovely owners. We love the food, be it the classics or new dishes that we enjoy trying.

This is one of the best Thai restaurant I've experienced. The food is presented colorfully and tastes fantastic, boasting authentic flavors such as mango and chilly. The owner is incredibly friendly.

The best Thai food I’ve ever had! Especially loved their Thai tea, which was super refreshing! Will definitely come back soon.

My go-to restaurant on business trips to DC! Love, love, love this place! Service is quick and friendly, food is amazing. Since going vegan last month I've had Tofu Drunken Noodles, Veggie Pad Thai, and Tofu Curry here - all were delicious and filling. The owners Sami and Juni are wonderful people with a quick smile and warm greetings. I'll be back again, and again, and again, and...

I had a great first experience at Courtside Thai! They were super friendly and the food was good quality. Pad thai and spring rolls were delicious. I will definitely be back and this is new my go-to thai spot for those cravings!

The best Thai food in northern VA, and it has some stiff competition. The owners are wonderfully friendly, the restaurant is clean and pretty, and the food is stellar. I've come here for years now, worked my way through basically the entire menu, and never had a bad dish.

A very charming thai restaurant hiding in plain site with excellent flavors. You will need to use public parking but it is on the street level so handicap access is not a problem.

The mango sticky rice was sooo yummy!! The shrimp curry is phenomenal, will definitely be coming back.

The food is amazing!!! The owners are so kind and truly want everyone to enjoy their food and experience.
It was our first time here and we will most definitely be back. I wish I took more photos of the delicious food our friends and I had but trust me it was all delicious. Some of the most tasty Thai cuisine I’ve ever had!

Everything was so excellent with amazing service. Courtside catfish was both of our favorite.

Amazing restaurant run by an elderly couple. They make you feel at home like your own grandparents. The food is great, definitely a must visit if you're in the area.

The garden has such a luxurious feel. The service and food were wonderful. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the sauce for the pad Thai was made on the spot with the dish. When I asked for my unfinished meal to-go, the lady packaged it for me and even included a little extra sauce which was so thoughtful and kind. My friends’ dishes also looked upscale and fresh.

Customer service was amazing. Food was beyond delicious. Will be back for sure having just moved to the area to eat more. Plenty of Vegan options as well and full service bar.
