Mama's Dumplings were the best dumplings I've ever had! Phenomenal! Chicken Pad Thai was great, too!

I had take out last night. It was good. The scallion pancakes were good, the crab Rangoon was one to skip. I do think the decor inside is well done and so clean. I will go again Sorry I didn't take photos.

My drunken noodles with tofu was spicy and flavorful. Hubby's pad Thai with beef was a little lackluster. We weren't asked about spice levels so maybe they just went with mild to be safe. Cute place but we were glad we got the corner table where we weren't sitting across from each other as it might have been difficult to hear each other.

5 Thai has been a reliable standby for us for years. Top-notch food, nice ambiance and nice staff. Right in the walkable area of downtown, just a couple blocks from the huge parking garage. Highly rcommend!

It's been so many yrs since I've had Thai that tasted this good. Probably not since one of my trips to NYC. You take a gamble when you order duck. It has the ability to go sideways. I've had too many chewy ducks than I can count. Even at a Michelin star restaurant. The crispy duck and massamsan curry at 5 Thai Bistro was absolute perfection. It was crispy and fork tender. We also ordered scallion pancakes, crab Rangoon, chicken fried rice, and pad Thai. It was all very good. I had such a long day. This was exactly what I needed.

3rd visit and each time has been really good and consistent. I've tried several Thai places in NH and this one is the best by far. Spring rolls are crispy and the insides are not soggy. Dumplings have great flavor and the sticky sauce they serve them with is the perfect touch. The basil stir-fry was perfect. I like my food Thai hot and this did not disappoint. This will be my go to Thai spot from now on.

Yummy place! Loved it! Came here for lunch and really enjoyed it with my group! Quick service, friendly staff and a surprisingly good find in the area. Parking is a bit of trying your luck. There is a parking lot in the back if you can't find street parking. We got chive cakes, pad see ew, deluxe pad thai, crispy duck on the side ($10), gratuity 20% was included in our bill since we had a large group of 9 (including kids). Some other items we tried including pineapple fried rice, drunken noodle, tom yum soup which are decent too. Give it a try if you're looking for a good thai spot!
