Ammathar Thai Cuisine

Delicious food. I just loved all the dishes we ordered.
The thai coconut griddle was top notch yummy 😋. It’s a must try I would say.

Parking is tricky.

Really good 5* experience, especially for food and service. This is a top DC option for Thai. I've visited many times and always had a great meal.

I visited most recently and had the Green Curry. They were nice enough to add string beans (no up charge). This is a very flavorful dish. Be warned, the normal preparation comes spicy. It isn't crazy heat but more spicy than the usually more bland places. Lots of veggies in it already. Really good green curry.

The service here is always really good. However, they are really busy during popular times. I've never needed a reservation to get a seat, but this most recent visit (Saturday night), I got the last table.

Definitely worth coming across town for if you want Thai.

TLDR: This is probably the best Thai food I've had in D.C.

This is a family-owned restaurant and it really shines in the mom-and-pop eatery realm. This was the most authentic taste I've had compared to my time in Thailand and my mom's cooking. Don't tell her I said that.
Everything I ordered was excellent and I was shocked at every dish. Not to knock Thai restaurants, but they Americanize their recipes quite often. I don't just mean with the spice levels either, but it's the flavors and ingredients. Remember, Thai food is distinctly known for combining the sweet, sour, and spicy components into a harmonizing melody that transports you to the motherland.
Definitely my new favorite spot.

I dropped into this place with some friends and the customer service was impeccable. I was impressed with the food, kindness, and quickness. The decorations and ambience were also amazing.

This no-frills little eatery serves authentic and flavourful Thai food. I had Tom Yam soup, beef salad and the green curry chicken, and shared a mango rice desert with a friend. They are all good. The manager (I guess also the owner?) is friendly and helpful. Will come back.

All dishes that we tried were delicious! Spice level is as per the menu. They do offer spice and hot sauce on the table. It was difficult to explain or order to the server, but the flavor in the dishes more than compensated for making sure they understand our order. Quality of everything else was without any issues.

Great little low-key Thai place. I arrived just before they were closing for lunch but was graciously welcomed and not rushed.

The menu is fairly extensive, and there's pictures of everything. Items are already assigned a spicy-ness, which I think is great. The Thai lemongrass with chicken was very good. I would definitely get it again, or I might try something else because it all looks good. The Thai iced tea was also pretty good, and I thought it was a fair price for the size.

Authentic Thai food, low key setting but great food. We had Thai green curry and fried rice and both were awesome, high in flavour and spice. Vegetarian friendly. Restaurant would benefit by making fish free sauce to also cater to lot of vegan folks

I've eaten there three times now. The Lemongrass Chicken was just spicy enough to make your nose run but not so much as to not be able to taste the chicken and vegetables. Unfortunately, I inhaled the food by the time I remembered to photograph it. The garden rolls were a great difference visually from traditional rolls. Lastly the Kung Phuket was new to me, not spicy enough for me but the ground chicken was sizzling and delicious.

I enjoyed this place immensely because it caught me by surprise that on pricy 14th St, you can still find value cuisine. The Jack and Coke was fairly priced, also and in a decent size glass.

Hands-down best Thai food in DC. Authentic dishes with a great variety, affordable and usually not too crowded.

This was one of the first places we dined when we moved to DC. To celebrate our anniversary this is where we came. We had a wonderful host and the food has always been delicious. We frequent displays and highly recommend it. One of the best places for Thai food, even though ownership has changed. It was my first time trying to desert, pictured the ball shaped, I really enjoyed it. As for my main dish, I loved it great texture, savory sauce, and a big meal. I had to take some home, it was so much.

Great Thai food and very affordable as far as restaurant fare in DC goes! Service was excellent too, friendly staff. Bathrooms were also sparkling clean and smelled good.

This was a first visit for me and I loved it. I had the beef pad Thai, pineapple fried rice (the shrimp was pretty bland and a bit overcooked), and Pad Phrik King and they were all delicious. It was full of flavor and not overly driven by the spice of the peppers. I will be going back to try some of the other noodles offerings. If you are looking for a legit Thai shop, this is it! Give it a try 😉 there will always be something on the menu that you will fall in love with.

I can’t express how much I like the papaya salad here. It was so authentic and they made it like I have in Thailand, which means they weren’t shy about making it so spicy lol. The Fire Bird Nest dish was also phenomenal. They have a big menu, so try as many dishes as you can.

This is my go-to spot when I am craving Thai food. I used to live 2 blocks away and my roommates and I had their food almost once a week. My favorites are birds on the nest and Nam Ting Beef. I moved out of the area now but I still come back for the food or do an online order here and there. I brought my friend who has lived in Thailand and she told me that their food is very authentic. I knew it was different from most of the Thai food I have tried in the past. You can just tell from the nuance taste. Only real locals can make that difference.

I have had a lot of pad Thai in my life… I love Thai food.. I went here on a date on my way to my 20 year high school reunion and I have to say you cannot find better tasting pad Thai in DC… noodles cooked perfectly … spices awesome… I don’t know what they did but I vote best pad Thai in DC … hats off to the chef

In a nook where Thai spices play hide and seek,
Finds an eatery modest, never meek.
It's the anti-pretentious, a culinary delight,
Where getting a table's as easy as a kite's flight.

Swift is the service, zippy and bright,
But hold your hats, the quality's still tight.
A menu so varied, it's like a food fest,
From splurge-worthy seafood to budget best.

Here, laughter's served on a platter so fine,
With dishes that make your taste buds twine.
So, dive into the feast, both cheap and dear,
In this Thai spot, we cheer, not jeer.

Cute atmosphere with great food after walking all day. For those of you who are looking for the brown savory pad Thai rather than the red sweet Americanized kind, this was the former and so good. The spicy drunken noodles were fantastic.

Yhe person serving has really good English so non-issue with yhe order.
Got penag carry and calamari flavorful and yum
