Thai 9 Lincoln NH — Restaurant in Lincoln

Authentic Thai food the best that I’ve had since new haven. Compared to other restaurants in the area, pricing is excellent and portions are generous. This is not NYC, people close their shops pretty early and then you only have like 2 restaurants open in a 30 mile radius and you’re looking at maybe 30 dollars for 8 ounces of food after 5 pm. I’m disappointed that this place closes so early, leaving me having to drive miles just to spend like 70 dollars for two people for a few slices of meat and then to go hungry. I’ve literally been served like 4 slices of duck at other places for around 20 dollars. So before you complain about 12 bucks for an entree here please note that this place is way cheaper than a lot of the non Asian places. I only found this place on my last day in New Hampshire, it was a shame because it was the best restaurant I’ve enjoyed the entire trip, and being from nyc, where’s there’s literally at least 300 restaurants in a 10 block radius I would say that they would fit right in in an ultra competitive food scene such where portion size, taste and pricing are constantly tested. Most of the restaurants here will not survive in nyc, but people give them 5 stars anyways because thats the local market they don’t get Thai food, or they think Thai food must be inferior to american food food. It’s really not that hard to make a burger or a sandwich or warm some soup. Thai food is extremely complex, takes substantially more time and is incredibly flavorful and requires much more balancing. But we tend to be harder on this restaurant than much less competitive American ones because the demographic that frequents this place is used to super dirt cheap prices from big cities and will not dine at the 5 star places— which if they did and they would probably one star in mass, or maybe we think that this place because it is Thai it just deserves less stars anyways.

So all my Asian folks before you bash this Asian restaurant try a non Asian restaurant around here, you may get ripped off for dinner, 4 ounce salad for 9 dollars is a 5 star jammed packed non Asian restaurant. 30 dollars for a piece of chicken? 8 dollars for a small cup of soup? That’s the norm here nothing spectacular about the taste of those places. You can get a better tasting meal cooking any one of the meal kits for yourself such as blue apron gobble every plate etc. But strangely enough all these other restaurants got 5 stars having very high prices with hours average wait times. Let do a relative comparison to these restaurants, not just bash this one just because we’re used to 8 dollar beef bowls in nyc or Boston, we’re lucky this place is open at all, I ended up buying my dinner in advance after buying lunch here because I had no faith that I was gonna find a good place to eat for dinner. The very next day back in Burlington I once again had a disappointing food experience, my breakfast pancakes had flour-raw flour in the middle, for around 20 bucks-which was again another 5 star restaurant.

The red curry...

Decided to drive a hour north with my significant other to visit here and see how the food was, seeing as tho I really like good Thai food , I dident mind the beautiful drive north. We ordered crab Rangoon and tom yum soup (my favorite when made right). The crab Rangoon were very obviously hand made and perfectly bite sized. The tom yum soup with seafood was a lot larger than expected and delicous (definitely need to order more spicy next time but was definitely to my liking). For dinner we had the three flavored crispy fish and it was absolutely amazing and had all the right flavors for a Thai dish. Unfortunately we dident have dessert beacuse we were so full but maybe next time.

A note for someone or people in general. I find this restaurant to be very authentic and the food to be stright from Thailand and its alot diffrent from what we like in American, but if you want authentic and fresh ingredients and are in the area or passing by I definitely recommend it.

Also my significant other is from Bangkok Thailand and she feels at home when we eat here and I...

My girlfriend and I were on vacation and decided to try this place due to both Happy Cow Reviews and Google Reviews.

My girlfriend is vegan and ordered the Veggie Rolls and Drunken Noodle, Veggie Roll was literally salad wrapped in a rice paper and the Drunken Noodle was not appealing or tasty.

Second time ever ordering Thai in my life, limited experience going into it. I ordered the Pad Thai with Chicken, Shrimp and Tofu...never seen that combination before. They wouldn't change the tofu for pork or beef, no problem. What came out was very not appetizing with very little protein. The only good things were the the two large shrimp and two pieces of tofu. Everything was coated in a mystery sauce, needlessly to say I only ate the protein and left everything else on the plate.

We were hoping it would be good but unfortunately left still hungry.

The iced coffe was good and the emplyee who greeted us was nice.

I hope that the owners/ employees take this review not as a negative comment but as an honest take to do better...
