Jeera Thai Westport,

165 Post Road East, Westport, CT 06880

"My husband and I love Thai food but it’s hard to find good Thai food in the US, we have gone everywhere. Jeera is our favorite and ready brings the heat like authentic Thai food should. We love the owner and the chef, they are really nice and always make a great meal. The summer roll, dumplings, Thai Basil fried rice and Pad woo Sen are our favorites!"

"A hidden gem, the restaurant offers an authentic and unique dining experience. Been going for years and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. The drunken noodles, pho, duck noodles are truly something to look out for."

"Fraud on billing experience by staff overshadowed tasty food. Beware of small frauds at this restaurant. Menu price was $7 less than we were billed. It seemed strange when I asked for a glass of water & the older woman gave me a higher-end Fiji water bottle, then a lower-priced bottle of water before the other staff member gave me the tap water in a glass I asked for each time. This supports what happened with the bill at the end of our lunch as I'm an internal auditor/Fraud Accountant by trade. The mango curry menu item was priced at $13.95 & pad se ewe at $11.95, but we were billed $16.95 & $14.95 respectively. When we noticed & asked about the difference, first they said we ordered off the dinner menu, not the lunch menu. There was only 1 menu, so that isn't possible. Then they said the menu price is different for dine-in at the outside table that we did, and the carry out price is the lower price listed on the menu we used. Then we saw an extra charge for tofu instead of chicken, but that's included per the menu text & photos as shown. Finally, they said there was an updated menu recently and we ordered/used the old one that was outside at the table we sat down at to order. Also not possible, since the only version of the menu was the one the had on out table & we used to order from. We still tipped 17%, but will contest this with the credit card company since the staff was unwilling to bill us correctly. Watch your bill if you chose to go here."

"I ordered a basil fried rice with chicken. It was very good. The taste was delicious. A little spicy but delicious, but the drunken noodles are the best. I recommend them."

"I was very happy to see that they offer vegan and gluten-free options, and when I asked what exactly those were, the lady taking my order said most of the dishes can be modified to be vegan and/or gluten-free! So I got the Pad See Ew, which is a dish I usually can't order because it is traditionally neither vegan nor gluten-free. It was perhaps a tad bit on the bland side (I assume as a result of omitting ingredients like fish sauce that can't be substituted) - mainly just the tofu that was bland, because the noodles and vegetables tasted pretty good. Very enjoyable. And a good sized portion for the price, which made me especially happy because I was so hungry. I would have to try some of their other dishes to get a better idea of their food since it's hard to judge a place off of just one thing. The dining area inside is small and nothing terribly fancy, but it was comfortable enough. I came for lunch shortly after they'd opened so it wasn't that busy (a couple of people were finishing up their meal, and a couple people came in to order take-out)."
