Tom Yum Koong Thai Kitchen — Restaurant in Hasbrouck Heights

Tom Yum Koong is the best authentic Thai restaurant in Bergen County (along with its sister location, Thai Corner in Wood-Ridge) and it is literally right down the block from my house. I lived in NYC for 10 years & this restaurant rivals any NYC Thai restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious and flavorful with fresh ingredients as well as reasonably priced. The menu has a good balance of meat, seafood, and vegetarian dishes plus a nice dessert menu. The portions are very generous. The staff is friendly, professional, helpful and very attentive. The owner, Ann is extremely accommodating. The overall ambiance is very pleasant. The space itself is on the smaller side but it is nicely decorated. Parking is not a problem. Even though the restaurant is located on a main street there is ample parking on any side street. One item to note is that it is BYOB which I love but plan to bring your own wine, beer, etc. I'd recommend making a reservation for weekend...

Named after a traditional Thai soup with savory shrimp spiced with Thai herbs, mushrooms, lemongrass, and lime leaves, Tom Yum Koong is located on the corner off of Boulevard in Hasbrouck Heights. Upon arrival for lunch today, I was greeted by the staff and led to a table inside a cozy, elegant, and beautiful atmosphere designed to be peaceful and warm. My last visit was in 2018. Reservations are highly recommended on weekends. The menu offers an exotic array of dishes, from soups to salads to fish to curries. I decided on the lunch menu featuring Pad See Ew (stir fried flat noodles with Chinese broccoli in black soy sauce and egg) accompanied by a Tom Yum soup with tofu and side salad. The high-quality food arrived quick, very flavorful, and delicious. The service was amazing. Everyone who worked there was very friendly and helpful. I made small talk with one of the husband-wife duo owners, Ann. The price was comparable to the area. I can...

I believe Tom Yum Koong is the NJ no.1 Thai restaurant. Whenever I am tempted to eat Thai Food, this restaurant is my first priority in my listing. I am vegetarian, so I usually enjoy the entree with tofu! Every ingredient in each food is fresh.

The reason why I like this place is toasted tofu and a lot of vegetables more than rice or noodles. Even my bf is not vegetarian and not used to eating tofu but he admitted the tofu with rice is the best. Even though we ordered two foods from the restaurant, we forgot to take one photo because we are hurried to eat it haha :) Thai Fried Rice (Tofu, fresh veggies and soft rice !!!) Pad Kee Mao (a little spicy! I like the spicy flavor so I love this!)

If you are exploring thai food in restaurants, they give you most of the noodles other than veggies or other extra ingredients, but here is not. If you visit this place, you will never regret to...
