Wilaiwan's Kitchen

This is the bomb of the town. You would regret coming here but come early and pray to get a table. Btw you have to order first then she let you in. Don’t waste people time and not a table service.

There are like 3 table for 8 people to seat. They do mostly take out and can sold out easily. Their menu rotates and you get new every once in a while. Check online for their menu.

The service is so nice. I would just come to experience the good service. The food is amazing and honestly I won’t judge you if you order one of each.

Food is amazing. Well maybe it was cold out too but the curry I had is out of this world. Love the egg addon.

TL;DR try one of their soups, you'll be cosplaying Remy in Ratatouille for sure.

To be blatantly honest, this is the most flavorful food I've had, and that includes traveling around the world. I've had this place on and off for years due to moving, and yet the now 45-minute drive is still worth it to get such good food. Haven't had anything bad here. The spicy heat is perfectly balanced with flavor, yet they can make it mild for the more meeker Northern palate. The owners are gracious and good people. I'd wish Michelin star restaurants had this level of flavor, but then again, maybe the fewer people know, the better kept secret for the rest of us 😄

This place is incredible! Couldn't believe the flavors and the heat. Only three things on the menu so makes it easy, perfectly fresh and balanced flavors! I had the khao soy. Need to try this place!

Love the food! Have been here a few times at least. While the menu is typically only 3 dishes but they are authentic and fresh. The spice level is perfect for us but some people might find it too spicy. We always come back, highly recommended!

The food here is the best Thai I’ve had in my life, outside of Thailand. While the spice level is authentic, there are usually a few dishes that can be toned down - as well as made with tofu, for veggie friendly folks. At this point, I’m hard pressed to talk myself OUT of having lunch here at least once a week because it’s just that good!

Fantastic Thai food - only 3 dishes on the menu so you know right away that they're experts on preparing them and that the ingredients are fresh. We had the Gwit Diow (pork) and the Khao Soy (chicken curry) and they were both amazing. Only take out unfortunately, no indoor or outdoor seating, but still worth it.
Trust the reviews - it's a must-try if you're even near Montpelier.

🔥🔥🔥🔥so good! Quick and delicious. I appreciate the short menu and that you can take your meal served in a in-house bowl go sit somewhere in town and just return the bowl before the shop closes. 💯 🍜

Just ate here for the first time and it was amazing! It was spicy (which I wanted) and delicious. Highly recommend!! I got there just as they opened and while I sat in my car and ate every bite, they were already busy. Clearly very popular.

The best food I've ever eaten. Not just the best Thai food, the best food in general. It's one of those little hole in the wall places where 100% of the effort goes into the food and you can tell. Pay attention to the weekly menu and get there as soon as it opens because they only sell as long as they have food and you won't want to miss out. Also, it can get very spicy so consider asking for medium spice if you think that will bother you.

Some of the best food I've ever eaten! The service is excellent and the tiny dining area is as charming as it gets.

Most impressive! Get here early, as they run out fast. They only have several dishes available. Those hit the quintessential Thai quartet - salty, sweet, sour, crunchy. Had two of their specials that day and each was excellent.

I am not foodie or an outwardly affectionate person, but after I ate the curry I wanted to give who ever cooked the biggest hug. 11 out of 10. Can’t wait to go back.

Khao soi with extra spicy. Very spicy and authentic curry. We are just passing by. Otherwise I want to come back a couple times every week.

We stopped by from out of town last Saturday but unfortunately, we were a little too late and the kitchen was already closed. However, the owner offered to make us a plate to-go with was left from the lunch service and a bottle of water...at NO CHARGE, even refusing any tip! Not only were we touched by this generous gesture, we had the best Thai food we ever had! Fresh, flavourful, and deliciously spicy! We will definitely go back next time we are in Montpelier. A Must!

Easily the best food in Montpelier!! Amazing flavors! So fresh and complex! The best Thai food I have had outside of Thailand! And also the best price in town. Love it so much… the spice hurts but it’s worth it! 😋

Very very good! Much more like the food you get in Thailand than most of the places you find in the states. We went during the pandemic, so we didn’t get to talk with the cook or anything, which I would have loved to have the chance to do!

They put rice in the tom kha gai, which I didn’t expect, but I guess that’s so someone could eat it by itself and still call it a meal.

We really enjoyed the food and will surely go back whenever we visit my brother up here in Vermont.

Takeout only. Absolutely delicious! Good value, not a huge portion, but typical around here these days. Happy with the low spice level, upon request.

I’m not sure why the best Thai food I’ve had in the US is a small kitchen in Montpelier Vermont, but there it is. The food here is authentically spicy and has the lime and lemongrass tang that only authentic Thai food has. Better Thai food than anyplace in NYC or Boston.

I will literally stop here any time I am driving through Vermont on I-89.

All the items in the menu tastes amazing! Love Khao soy, Massaman curry and Yam gai krob. You can check their Facebook page to see the menu. Every week menu changes. And they accept either cash or check

After living in close proximity to many Thai restaurants in NYC for ten years, I can hands down say this is the best Thai food I’ve ever tasted. So authentic, warming and delicious. The menu changes weekly, be sure to check the website for the current week’s offerings. They sell three unique dishes each week - my husband and I will often order one of each, which means we have a little left over for the next day. Not much seating but who cares, call ahead to order, and take it away with you. This is a rare gem and a MUST for anyone who likes Thai food (and spicy food!) Here’s the kicker - they’re so good at what they do, they only open at lunchtime!!
