When we think of Thai food, our minds generally conjure images of Pad Thai (which for the sake of being in a Thai restaurant, I did end up sampling), or Panang Curry, to name a few commercialized items. What co-founders Eed and Matt Landon have done with their Thai by Thai chain is create traditional Thai dishes in a "casual, quick service" format.
To celebrate the opening of their fourth Thai by Thai, I sampled nine dishes that were listed on the not so "Secret Street Menu" consisting of an appetizer, several noodle soups, and rice-based dishes; off-menu were per-request items such as their hugely popular Kai Rabert or the Exploding Egg Dish known in the vernacular, and their "Classic Menu...

Good Thai. I live nearby and found their menu on my door. I keep these things so I can try new places. I'm usually disappointed, but Thai by Thai is a definite exception. The food is good and carefully prepared. I try a new dish every time and have not been disappointed. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and purity of the flavors. As the other reviewer mentions, the menu is easy to decipher. Don't forget to ask about the monthly specials when you call In for the treat is the staff. Every time I leave they always seem happy to see me or someone walking through the door Unlike many local Asian restaurants, the decor is nice and cheerful....read more
Would love this place if they could stay consistent with quantity first and quality. I know they use cheap and unhealthy oils but I’m willing to look past that on the days they execute on the taste which is about 2/3 of the time. Would pay more for organic ingredients cooked in quality oils.
Tried this place on a whom and loved it. Easy to understand menu and food was delicious and well priced. Started with the dumpling appetizer and loved the sweet soy sauce The staple pad Thai was delcious and left me full. Giventhisplace a try you won't be disapponted
I ordered drunken noodle with 8 shrimp To-Go and only got 7 shrimp. I asked for spicy sauce and they gave me an old fish sauce.I hope they aren’t really that cheap that they sacrifice their integrity.The food was delicious though.

So definitely try out Thai by Thai if you are in the northern Virginia area. The Kai Raberd and Pad Thai are a step above the usual and, I think, the best things to order here!
Simply delicious! First time visiting Virginia and found this gem. I’ll definitely be back. Super clean , family run establishment. The love showed in their dishes.Food: 5/5
