South Sea Thai Kitchen

"The best Thai food I’ve had in years. This place is a treasure! So many restaurants use poor quality ingredients, but everything here is fresh — you can see the cooks make it as you wait! My wife loves the Red Curry, and I prefer the Green Curry. We both love the Massaman Curry!"

"This is a primarily take out restaurant serving authentic, delicious Thai food. We ordered New Years dinner and it was fresh, delicious and ready for pick up at 7:30 pm! The Coconut soup was out of this world delicious! A must have! Delicious food and friendly service! Definitely a place to return!"

"I was kind of surprised when I got here. Maybe because I didn’t see much interior photos of this restaurant online. This is actually not a regular restaurant, but more like a take out place with a few tables and chairs. Although it is clean and nice, but space is limited. It is definitely not suitable for a large group nor family with baby strollers. They have parking spaces in the rear behind the restaurant. The entrance is narrow! I nearly pass that when it is right next to the restaurant. How about their food? It is not the best, but not the worst. My husband and I thought the food was a bit bland. It got taste but not flavorful enough compare to other Thai cuisine we have tried. We ordered the Tom yum noodle soup with shrimps. We thought it wasn’t sour enough for a tom yum soup base. We also ordered a Papaya salad, a Massamam curry with chicken, and a Thai coffee. None of those really makes me feel ooo or surprised. The Papaya salad was not anything special. The Massamam curry wasn’t too bad. Sweet and a hint of spicy with some taste of coconut milk. But the chicken was a bit rough. The Thai coffee was surprisingly sweet to me. Personally, I’m not a big fan of Thai tea cause too sweet to me, but I didn’t expect the coffee would be sweet too. Overall, I would try once, maybe not so much of a second time on my own."

"Had beef drunken noodle and it was impressive in taste. It didn't taste typical but slightly more spicy with lesser amount of brown sauce (?). Every ingredient in it tasted fresh and it was properly cooked. Thai iced tea was served in the bottle that looked like a milk bottle. It also tasted great! Dining in is not offered at this restaurant and actually, I felt like I picked up my food from someone's house. And I've noticed many stores and restaurants look like residential houses in Philly. I will try another menu next time."

"The lemongrass soup was delicious, robust flavor with a kick. The drunken noodles dish was my least favorite of any thai restaurant I've eaten from before. The main issue was the noodles, they are supposed to be flat, wide and thin. These were not, the texture was more like wheat pasta and I would guess they came out of a bag... The flavor of the sauce was just ok."
