Customer Reviews
Grandma's Philly has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 based on over 3102 reviews on Google
Grandma’s Philly Thai earns a glowing 5-star rating for its "flavor bomb" cuisine and exceptional hospitality. The menu excels across the board, featuring standout dishes like the crispy pork stir-fry, Grandma’s meatballs, and the highly recommended Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles). Diners praised the kitchen’s ability to balance bold spices with perfectly cooked proteins, including fresh seafood and various vegan-friendly options like the Massaman curry. The experience is bolstered by a "super cute" atmosphere and a professional staff. Servers Dominic and Jada were specifically highlighted for their menu expertise, accurate spice-level descriptions, and attentive, well-paced service even during busy hours. With beautiful plating and consistent quality, it has established itself as a destination-worthy spot for Thai food enthusiasts.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this Thai restaurant, and a huge part of that was thanks to the incredible manager Aman and the amazing food. From the moment I walked in, the manager made me feel genuinely welcome. You can tell they truly care about every guest attentive, friendly, and always making sure everything runs smoothly without being intrusive. It’s rare to see someone lead a team with such professionalism and warmth at the same time. The service was fast, organized, and delivered with a smile.
First time at Grandma’s Philly Thai and it was a clear 5-star experience. We ordered Grandma’s meatballs, the crispy pork stir-fry with rice, and the Pad Cha Talay spicy seafood. Every dish came out hot, well-seasoned, and balanced – crispy pork with real crunch but still tender inside, rich and flavorful meatballs with just the right amount of sauce, and the seafood stir-fry packed with shrimp, calamari, and fish, all cooked perfectly, not rubbery. Portions were solid and plating actually looked as good as it tasted. Our server, Dominic, ran the whole night smoothly. She knew the menu, gave accurate descriptions of the spice levels, timed everything so the table never felt rushed or waiting, and checked in just enough without hovering. Drinks stayed full, plates were cleared quickly, and he stayed calm and professional even while the place was busy. If you like Thai food with real flavor and competent service, this spot delivers. Dominic and the kitchen both did their jobs at a high level, and I’d come back and order the same dishes again.
Food missed my expectation so probably I won't come back. I ordered thai pork dumpling and was expecting those steamed blue flower shaped dumplings but they brought out these fried meatballs, and I confirmed with the waiter that this was indeed thai pork dumpling. This is my least favorite dish too, flavor is just off and also a little spicy. The chicken satay is not very moist and the dipping sauce doesn't have enough peanut flavor imo. The pineapple is okay but it is not served in a pineapple 🙁 This place gets pretty crowded during dinner time I believe.
Grandma’s Philly has been on my list to try forever, and I’m so glad I finally got around to visiting! It’s a great place to get Thai cuisine in an upscale but still relaxed environment. We sat at the bar and started with a thai espresso martini. It was rich and creamy, but a tad sweet for my liking. For food, we got the grandma’s meatballs, crispy chives and drunken noodles. The grandma’s meatballs were outstanding - the sauce was very robust (sweet + savory). I used the sauce in conjunction with the other dishes. The crispy chives were fried perfectly and had a lot more flavor than I was expecting. The drunken noodles we got with chicken and spice level 2. The heat was a nice kick without being overpowering, and I enjoyed the wide noodles. The menu was so expansive, I had a hard time choosing (a good problem). This is now a new favorite restaurant, and I can’t wait to come back and try more.
This is one of our favorite restaurants in the city. The food is so authentic and if you like spicy food, just tell them and they will spice it up for you. Every dish I’ve ever had has been great. The restaurant is cute, the staff is sweet, the food is amazing, and the drinks are very good as well.
We had an amazing experience at Grandma Philly's. The service, atmosphere and drinks were great, but the food was absolutely delicious! Appetizers and entrees. It was a little tight in there, but its such a vibe that you dont care! We will definitely be back.
