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. More

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

Great atmosphere with an awesome view of the river from the 2nd level, also outside seating. Lots of menu options and all have been good so far. Clever drink selections and wait staff is pleasant. Good value for food and quick service. More

We were seated immediately at a second floor seat overlooking the river. That portion of the waterfront itself isn't particularly picturesque, but if you can overlook the unremarkable foreground, the view out across the river is good. The menu had quite a good selection at reasonable prices; I enjoyed the ginger chicken and my date had pepper garlic chicken. Food... More

Mai Thai has a well-rounded typical thai menu. We had soups that were delicious. For entrees, we had Pad Thai and Chicken Green Curry. The Pad Thai was one of the best I've eaten. The Green Curry was a bit spicy (as advertised) and the vegetables (including eggplant) were fresh and prepared to perfection. Service was efficient. The location is... More
