What is Worth Choosing

The menu at Grandpa Thai is extensive, but a few dishes stand out and come highly recommended by regulars. For a true taste of their unique fusion concept, you must try a few of their signature items.

One of the most popular and celebrated dishes is the Charcoal Grilled Pork Neck. Praised for its smoky flavor and juicy texture, it's a great choice for an appetizer or a main course, especially when paired with a side of lettuce. Another fantastic starter is the Deep Fried Chicken Wings with Tom Yum Kung Flavour, which offer a crispy texture and a spicy, tangy kick.

When it comes to main courses, the choices are equally compelling. The Pad Thai is a classic for a reason, and a great measure of a Thai restaurant's quality. Grandpa Thai’s version is consistently well-received. For those who love a bit of heat and a lot of flavor, the Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) is a spicy and satisfying option. If you are looking for a unique and rich comfort meal, try the Tom Yum Kung Seafood Risotto with Cheese. This dish is a creative fusion that combines the bold flavors of Tom Yum with the creamy richness of risotto.

The Roti dishes are also a must-try. You can order it savory with Thai Green Curry Chicken Roti or Thai Red Curry Beef Roti, which are perfect for soaking up the rich curry sauce. For a sweet treat, the Banana Roti with Condensed Milk is a beloved dessert, offering a sweet and crunchy finish to your meal.

For drinks, a visit isn’t complete without one of their specialty beverages. The classic Thai Tea and Thai Green Tea are refreshing staples. For something different, the Signature Cinnamon Iced Coffee and the Ovaltine Sago are unique drinks that reflect the restaurant’s Hong Kong cafe influence.

Grandpa Thai offers a delicious and well-rounded culinary experience that is both authentic and innovative. With its a variety of dishes, from traditional curries to creative baked rice, there’s always something new and exciting to discover.

Loved the vibe of this place. Service was quick and friendly. We ordered honey lemonade and chefs special spicy chicken fillets. The lemonade was refreshing and and the appetizer was crispy with a sweet and spicy sauce on the side. We then got basil fried rice and kee mao. Both were extremely oily and underseasoned. We asked for Thai spicy but there was barely any taste. Just tossed into oil and served.

New thai spot in Greenwich. Super spacious, attentive service. The food was tasty and at a great price point. Recommend pad thai, chicken wings, and the pork neck
August 15 · Vijay Sridharan
i came here for a quick thai food grab at around 4pm. ordered a combo and another entree. it was a lot more food than i anticipated and was very delicious. the server was sooooo nice almost felt like my mom and she checked up on us very often. she made sure that i got the most discount by signing up for a membership and using my student discount. would definitely come back for a dinner since theres a lot of food 😅
April 02 · stratosphieee
Their BKK combo is very satisfying and worth the price! The drunken noodles were absolutely delicious, The leng saap, a spicy pork bone soup, was a tender and meaty, the sourness balanced out
August 16 · Yan Z
So happy to discover another great Thai restaurant in the area! Got the Pad Kra Pow, and it was absolutely delicious here. I really appreciated having the option to get it with or without rice. The lettuce was the perfect combo! Inside, the place has this cool, retro charm too.
