Summit Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in East Hanover

My absolutely favorite Thai place that I've ever been to! The food here is absolutely amazing. I've been here for both lunch and dinner several times and it's always been a good experience. Just a little warning, if you're planning to come for lunch on a weekday, be prepared to wait a really long time. I recommend that if you're serious about eating lunch here, come earlier than noon to guarantee you can get a table in time. The line is out the door sometimes (yes, it's THAT good). They have a pretty decent lunch special that comes with an appetizer and the main course for a reasonable price.

As far as the food, they have four levels of spicy conveniently rated 1-4 with 4 being the spiciest. I suggest you stick with the 3, even if you love spicy food because you're going to be a ball of snot with the 4 and at that point you can't even enjoy the flavors. Drunken noodles here are awesome as well as the chicken dumplings and Pad Thai. Their red curry is really good too! Honestly, everything is really good so try your favorites and...

Came for lunch right when they opened so no other customers were here. Had the place all to ourselves 😃

We come down to shop at Kam Man and we usually eat in the market but they no longer offer the lunch special. Then we usually would just walk over to Penang but decided to try something else today.

I've seen Summit Thai as we drive in many times. It's about half a mile away from Kam Man so we drove over to check it out. Glad we did!

We ordered hot tea and Thai iced tea.

Hubby ordered Beef Massaman Curry. The potatoes in this dish was a little undercooked the chef came out and was very apologetic. He made a new order of the potatoes, and this time it was perfect.

I ordered the Duck Nam Jim. This is crispy duck with a cilantro sauce. I've been to many Thai places but this is by far the best duck dish ever. The 🦆 was super crispy and the sauce was amazing, I'm definitely coming back to have this again!

Next time we're in the area...

Really good dinner. Thanks for the meal!

Came here at about 7:45pm on a Tuesday in August. Location of this spot is an unassuming strip mall....it's not hard to miss if you aren't paying attention when driving by!

Summit Thai was moderately busy....7-8 tables already seated, but with a few open so I was able to sit right away. I ordered the Pad Thai with tofu, pineapple fried rice, and some Thai iced tea.

Drinks came out fast, but the speed of the food was particularly impressive - couldn't have been more than 5 minutes from the time I ordered before the food was in front of me.

The pineapple fried rice was the star of the show in my opinion. Hot, moist, flavorful, and fresh. Pad Thai was good; I would have liked a few more hunks of tofu. Iced tea was ok....good flavor, but seemed pretty watered down. I might have just gotten the start of the pot.

Overall, very happy with my food and the service experience. I would definitely...
