Thai orchid restaurant has the BEST duck in DC, MD, VA. It's very lean and flavorful. Duck noodle soup is amazing. They give you a lot of duck meat unlike others that give you lots of noodle and just couple pieces of meat. Crispy duck is cooked perfectly every time we order. You got about 1/2 duck (no bone, that's the best part). Whenever we visit VA, we have to stop by this awesome place! Dustin (from SC)

We found our new favorite Thai place! Here at Thai Orchid...staffs are very attentive and friendly. Food really good and very economical. The best THAI TEA we ever had. And you can't miss their housemade ice cream. We love Pandan leaves and Green Tea. Frank

I eat Thai food in DC, MD, and VA. They sure got the best spring rolls, curries, duck dishes (very lean compare to most restaurants), Pad Thai, and Lard Nar. Staffs are very knowledgeable and helpful. Even without staffs' help, the menu itself is self explanatory (with pictures). Can't ask for better menu! Never disappointed when I and my friends visit this place. Wish they open near my house Jonah

Been to many Thai restaurants in DC/MD/VA, I have to say Thai orchid has the best Thai food. I mean they really got it down. Real Thai food, not American-Thai or Pan-Asia. What you got here is gonna be as close as what you would have in Thailand Joanne

5 stars all around. Although the service might be slow sometimes, it worths the wait. All dishes prepare per your order unlike couple other ones in the area. Staffs are very friendly. And their homemade ice cream is out of the world. You have to try Pandan leaves and Green Tea ice cream. It is my favorite. Can't find it anywhere else Amanda

Thai Orchid is one of a few under-the-radar restaurants you may never have heard of or tried - but their regulars wouldn’t give them up for anything. The restaurant's atmosphere is very casual and homey. Wait staffs are very knowledgable and friendly. What you find here is what you can expected to find if you were in Thailand. This sure is an authentic Thai cuisine as it says. George III

The best Thai food in Greater Washington. Truly Thai authentic as they said. The aroma of spices from different type of dishes is unique and memorable. Freshness of ingredients is the key to all dishes at this small gems! Friendly service is always a plus. This should be voted the best Thai food in Washingtonian than many others I read on many magazines. Give a try if you would. Joy

A laid back setting, people come to Thai Orchid to enjoy the food, relax, and hang out for a while.... The restaurant is perfect for couples on dates night; friends to hang out; family reunion; or even a small wedding reception. They will work with your budget. It is worth talking to them. They are fabulous!!! Bennett

Very clean place including restroom. My kids say they can eat off the floor. LOL!! Although they don't have kids menu, your kids would enjoy satay chicken and fried rice chicken. They also offer fried white chicken strip for kids with white rice. My kids love it. My favorite dish is Siamese 3 friends. Amanda

We love all dishes at Thai orchid. My favorites are all duck dishes. They are lean, not fat like other restaurants. Big portion compare to other places. Nice and quiet atmosphere. Don't forget to try their homemade ice cream. They are all nature and unique. Coconut, mango, and Pandan Leaf are our favorite! Anderson

Staffs are very helpful and friendly. Tasty and fresh food, always. Very clean even it has been around for a long time. Duck noodle soup is my favorite. It is very lean and they give a lot of meat unlike other places that give a lot of noodle and hardly any duck meat. The soup itself is out of this world!! You just have to try it. Don't just take my word!! Gabriela

Reminding me of the trip to Thailand. The place is serving authentic Thai cuisine from papaya salad, curries, basil dish, pad Thai, to the unforgettable delicious homemade ice cream. It is a perfect place to share dishes and great Thai food with your friends and family. TJ

Love the consistency of this place's service and freshness of food. I never once disappointed. My new fav dish is Duck Noodle Soup. Their duck is quite lean and the broth is outstanding. Wish they open another one in FL but from what I understand they are the only Thai Orchid in Dale City even though there might be many that use this name. Chris from Florida

I and my wife traveled extensively all over the world. Our passion is to find the best authentic food wherever we visit. When we want Thai, we only go to Thai orchid. Every years (for the past 4 yrs), we have flew into DC several times ourselves and sometimes with clients. Every times we have to make a trip out to our favorite place, no matter how busy our schedule is. Of course, we haves tried pretty much all Thai restaurants in DC and surrounded area but none can compare to Thai Orchid. Staffs are very friendly and attentive. They make us feel like home!! Fresh food and ingredients. Also not to miss Pandan leaves ice cream at the end!! We often wish they sell us Pandan leaves ice cream recipe. It is very delicate, nice aroma, nutty after taste, and light. This alone can make you want to go back there again and again for more 😊🍦😊 Washington

Our family love their food and service. Although recently they were short of hands, it sure worths waiting for!! Our little ones love their homemade ice cream. Well, we love it too :-) What not to love when everyone is so nice there!!! And the portion worth what u pay for. U won't get this big portion in town, u all know if u work downtown dc or in Fairfax, Arlington areas. Forget it!! This is the place where we bring our family, friends, and relatives!! The place we hang out. We love u, Thai Orchid. Erica

Have been trying many Thai restaurants all over DC/MD/VA and am very happy to finally found THE ONE my family all agree that we love it THE BEST!! Our favorite dishes are Drunken noodle, Golden crispy duck, Talay Symphony, Basil beef, and their homemade ice cream...something that we just can't leave without having it (either to have it at the restaurant or take it home). I normally don't let them eat too much sweet but their ice cream is exceptional. They are quite light and not that sweet. You just have to try it if you haven't had it before. Cheers!! Tasha

I had high expectations of Thai Orchid since I have been trying different Thai restaurants in the Northern Virginia are the past 6 months and the Thai Orchid fell short of its glorious reviews I found online. The drunken noodles I ordered were not seasoned well and the meat (chicken) was overcooked and I had four little pieces of chicken in the order. Since it did not taste good anyway I did not complain. By the way it was a to go order and I hope this is not the way they treat orders that are take out. After going to various Thai Restaurants the best in Northern Virginia to me is Top Thai of Crystal City, Virginia. Martha

We first thought it's an ice cream place since everyone we know keep telling us about how good their ice cream are. And yes...it's OUT OF THE WORLD!! You just have to try it to believe!! MUST TRY - Pandan leaf (can't find anywhere else). It's hard to explain but it's very nice aroma, nutty but believe me I already checked with the owner, who made this ice cream, he insists that there's no nuts in it at all; a bit kinda like pistachios, or vanilla with cinnamon but not that strong. Coconut and Mango are also a must try. All ice cream produce in-house. You can eat at the restaurant or order it to go. Now, Thai Orchid has become our new hang out for our kids and families when they want desserts like ice cream. It is their special treats cuz they know their ice cream is SPECIAL. Ralph

We have been coming to Thai Orchid for 7 years. Although their wait staffs come and go (they are always very friendly though), we know for sure that they still have the same chef/same owner. Food always good. They never disappoint us. Of course, people make mistake ('common both chefs are in 60 or 70s), but they always did their best. We never give them a hard time. We wish they will be around for years!!!!! Hong

My husband and I totally agreed with all positive reviews. Thanks to our GPS. We were on the way home (to NC). It took us to Thai Orchid Restaurant on Dale Blvd, off I-95, which wasn't that far away. We had such a delicious dinner, from appetizer to entree and completed our meal with their homemade ice cream. It was just perfect. Even though we were very full, their ice cream was very light and good. My husband and I shared a serving and we ate it all in no time. The young lady who waited on us was very charming and helpful. And the price was not breaking our bank. That's what surprised us (with the amount of food we got). My husband and I decided we would definitely return to Thai Orchid again. What a great find at the end of our trip!! :) Jane

Thai cooking is the balance of sweet, sour, salty and hot in perfect harmony. But at too many Thai restaurants in this country the heat is tempered and the sweetness amplified as concessions to American palates. Until I found this Thai Orchid Restaurant in Woodbridge, VA. You can have your basil dishes (oh, don't forget to let them know if you can't eat spicy cuz they normally serve this dish spicy) and your chicken satay, and you can rest assured that this restaurant's executions of them will be very fine. You can have your curries (any kind), and I can promise that none of them will disappoint you. You can also find any dishes that turn into vegetarian dishes without any problem (since they cook their food to the order). Where else can you find such a restaurant like Thai Orchid?!! Cathy

I'm not quite sure if Mr. Chuck really know Thai food. And if you don't like Thai Orchid that much or any Thai restaurant, then you may just leave them alone. Many customers who appreciate authentic Thai food, they would know where to spend their money. It's their choice. And from what I understand (since I have been coming to Thai Orchid for years), I believe the restaurant is owned by a family. A man, who is a chef, is also the owner. He is a quiet old guy that hardly come out to the front. Then, there's another chef (a tall guy that most customers often see). I never once disappointment of their food. Service is always superb. Even on a busy time, they always try their best. Great price in this economy!! BTW, Mr. Chuck...if you really want to drink good tea, you need to go to a good tea place. You cannot even expect good tea in a good pot in just any Chinese restaurant these days. All the best, Mr. Chuck! Chan

We love Thai Orchid. Our family has been coming to Thai Orchid for the past 7 years. My parents first came to Thai Orchid with their friends thinking that they were desserts place (somehow they heard about how yummy their ice cream was). Then they found out that Thai Orchid offered more than just ice cream! The rest was history. Thai Orchid became our hang out place for all events. We LOVE Thai Orchid!! DJ

A place to be whenever I'm away from home. Good food. Great service. I'm surprised they are not packed every day and night. I would hate for them to close down. If they were in the city, I believe many restaurants will have to watch out for Thai Orchid Restaurant. Don

Even though it has been in the business almost a decade, the place is very clean and looks quite new. Excellent food with awesome service. You might have to wait for food sometimes (on their busy days). However, it worths every seconds!!! Just enjoy your time there. Get to know your servers. Before you knew it, you might even bump into your own boss or close friends who have been going to Thai Orchid for years just like you too!! As a matter of fact, we did bump into many friends of us on several occasions when we were there. Now, Thai Orchid becomes our meet up place for almost all events. Our parents love the place. We love the place and our kids love it as well. Tyler

This restaurant is much better than many Thai restaurants I've eaten in DC, MD, and Falls Church. Excellent food with great service. Although sometimes it could be slow, it sure worth waiting for. They serve a whole fish with chili basil sauce here. It's amazing. Pad Thai and Basil chicken are unforgettable. And we can't leave the place without ordering their ice cream (either to eat there or take home). It's just so good!! Lee
