“ We got two dishes, both recommended by our Yelp Elite friends! Salmon Mango Salad: Delicious! Not quite enough food for me, but it's nice, healthy dish. Khao Soi: The brisket is amazing. Really flavorful and tender. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! We got this for takeout, so I think eating this fresh would have been even better. The curry was great and had a nice kick to it. ”

“ Enjoyed the short rib coconut curry. The shrimp donuts and fish dumplings were a bit heavy for me. Great service and ambiance. ”

“ Food was very good and fresh. Good flavors and service. Atmosphere is nice and was very crowded considering we went on a weeknight. Portion size was good. Got the Gai Yang chicken which was very tender and came with white rice. A lot of the options on the menu were marked spiced which is not for me so limited options there but overall good thai cuisine! ”

“ short rib curry 5/5 - very tender beef and flavorful curry, could come with a little more rice black sesame ice cream 4/5 blueberry ice cream 4/5 ginger ice cream 5/5 Decent Thai place. They have really good ice cream! The best one I've had is their ginger ice cream. It doesn't have too strong of a ginger taste and the vanilla ice cream with it complements the subtle ginger taste well. I would recommend the short rib curry. It has such good flavor and the beef is cooked well so that it is very tender. No complaints about the service, very standard. The interior of the place is nice, not super spacious. There's also ample street parking around the restaurant. You shouldn't have an issues finding a space nearby given that it's in Watertown. ”

“ Gosh I'm back here two days in a roll! It's amazing to sit next to the window on a sunny day. Brisket noodles: very rich curry flavor! The briskets themselves are okay. Pineapple curry: sweet and sour curry. It's pretty unique. But I liked the Panang Curry more (more spicy and flavorful) ”

“ What a great find! Located in a quiet residential neighborhood, Cha Yen Thai Cookery was a nice surprise! Great Service and Hospitality; Great (authentic) Food! Highly recommended! Note that this is a rather small restaurant. We were shocked that my party got the last table for 3 on a late Tuesday evening! We didn't expect it to be so busy at 8pm. They also do a bustling takeout service! On this evening, the 3 of us each chose an entree each and dined family style: - Roti ($6.50): a large roti was cut into 8 pcs, and served with a chicken peanut sauce. This was a very good dish; just wish there were a tad bit more chicken peanut sauce though. - Larb Salad w.Pork ($9.75): the portion size was huge and the Larb was tasty! - Green Curry w.Chicken ($16): this dish came with a bowl of jasmine rice. This was a good dish but I wish the chicken wasn't all white meat. The chicken was a little overcooked and hard. I think dark meat would have been more tender and moist. However, the green curry was very good. - Short Ribs Curry ($19): this dish came with a bowl of jasmine rice. Hands down, this was the best dish of the night. GET THIS!!! It was so unusual to see Short Ribs in a Thai Restaurant. What a pleasant surprise! There were 4 large pcs of short ribs, which were very tender. Great flavor and just delicious. A Must Have Dish! If I'm ever back in the neighborhood, I look forward to a return visit! What a hidden gem! ”

“ Great Thai food - I had to exercise some serious restraint to not finish my green curry because I wanted a portion for leftovers for the next day. The inside is not very big so if you don't want to wait for a table, suggest coming during the early hours. We tried the corn cake as an appetizer. It was pretty good, though the individual corn nuggets got stuck in my back molars. Loved the spicy peanut dipping sauce that came with it. My green curry was seriously one of the best iterations of the dish I've had in a while. Good coconut flavor, packed with veggies (eggplant, string bean, carrot, zucchini), and the tofu I ordered as a protein soaked up so much of the flavor. They offer lunch/dinner portions for the curries. I picked mild for spiciness because I'm a total wimp and it was still pretty spicy for me (so just know their "regular" may actually be quite a kick). The pepper signs on the menu are pretty accurate. I also can't pass up homemade ice creams, especially with black sesame as an option. It nailed the black sesame flavor (i.e., not too sweet) but the texture was a bit too icy and hard to spoon. Next time, I may skip the ice creams and save the stomach room for more of the appetizers/entrees. Next time: the tom yum noodle soup, the crab fried rice. Parking: street options available. ”
