Ruthai's Thai Kitchen

A cozy, laid back restaurant with incredible flavor and personality. We sat at the low tables where you sit cross-legged and eat. We started with soup, and my hot and sour soup tasted like authentic tamarind was used. My wife had the coconut shrimp soup, which was delectably seasoned and sweet. Our entrees were amazing! The grilled salmon in green curry was delicious, just the right amount of spiciness, and the salmon was perfectly cooked. The yellow curry with duck was sweet, tangy, and flavorful. In a stroke of genius, the yellow curry had pineapple in it! The duck was crispy, delicious, and plentiful. Overall, a great place for casual, fair priced food.

Very very very good food. Went a little crazy and got a bit of everything. The Golden sheets were crispy and piping hot. The hot and sour soup had a flavor I've never had before, just a touch of sweetness and it was amazing. The summer rolls were fresh with crisp veggies and the peanut sauce for dipping was perfection. My pad thai had amazing spice! My friend enjoyed both her wonton soup and fried wontons which both also came out piping hot. Their lunch menu prices are fantastic with large portions. $46 for everything pictured!

Listen to me. You need to eat here. I haven't eaten at Ruthai since pre pandemic. Mostly because I prefer dine in and I live pretty far away so take out is usually cold by the time I get home. I happened to be in the area and saw they were open again for dine in, they had been closed for almost 2 years for dine in and doing carry out only, and I cried tears of joy. I cried, real tears! I've been coming here since 2010 and can easily say I've never had a bad meal. This place is a cincy gem and is by far the best Thai food around!

Best Thai food in Cincy! I’ve been searching for good Thai food for so long and finally got to try this! Basil duck is highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️：The duck meat was so tender, juicy and flavorful!!! Soft crab green curry is also a perfect dish for seafood lover ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: watch out! This is probably the only restaurant you can get crab in curry so don’t miss it! Will come back very soon!!!

Check this place out! It's easy to miss, but my friend and I had dinner there recently and can't wait to go back. The interior is very cozy and welcoming. The service was attentive and kind. The food was absolutely great. I had pad wood sen and now I'm in love with mung noodles. My friend got wonton soup and said it had the silkiest noodles she'd ever had. The portions were large enough to pack leftovers, and our bill was not expensive at all. There's also a huge menu, and lots of vegetarian options (and they know how to rock that tofu!) Highly recommend, I look forward to being a long time repeat customer.
