"While most of the Thai restaurants on this list are friendly to walk-ins, Thai Diner has sustained a reputation as a hot reservation. It’s for good reason. The space hums with playfulness and warmth, in dishes like its khao soi, tom yum bisque, and crab fried rice (a vestige from the team’s previous restaurant Uncle Boons.) Leave room for desserts like the banana rum pudding or one of its monster cakes with eyes. The brunch menu features Thai-style porridge, Thai tea babka French toast, and one of our favorite egg sandwiches in town with boy choy and Thai basil." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
