My Thai OC

I swear that I am not a good snob. I have a healthy appreciation for foods of quality ranging from fine dining to the ubiquitous dirt-water dog. All of this just to frame my year and a half of disappointment in the Asian fare I have encountered in the Mid-Atlantic region. We have tried several well rated spots, and until today had been convinced that we just weren't going to find a place that serves something we wanted to come back for. I was wrong. Very wrong.

From the kind and cheerful service (which seems more about the quality of the establishment and their concern for your experience, rather then just a play for tips etc) to the perfection of the vegetables and sauces - I want to try each item on their menu at least once.

Our meal of pineapple fried rice and cashew chicken arrived from the kitchen perfectly cooked and seasoned. The vegetables were tender, yet still had excellent fresh bite. The meat was of high quality, with a grilled flavor that peeks through the beautifully orchestrated sauce.

Now I know.. Thai O-Cha doesn't just have a lovely menu. They have actually written a love letter to your stomach and taste buds. I expect my romance with them to be a very long and happy one!

Excellent portions and really quick service. Food was out super fast.
Server was very attentive and knew which options were gluten free and could be modified to be gluten free.
Loved that they had GF items marked on their menu and they could modify done things not marked that way as well.
Was so good I ordered extra food to go.

*I added extra spice to my traditionally not spicy dish. They were happy to bring me spices to do so as seen in the picture.

I love Thai food and that’s the reason I always look for good Thai restaurants in any town I visit. Thai O-Cha is an old restaurant with new management. Over 5 years back I had dinner in this restaurant and this time again it didn’t disappoint me. Staff is very polite and friendly. Almost all the dishes we ordered were great. They have a lot of Vegan options too. Do remember the food might take a little longer to come but it’s because it’s made fresh. Do try their coconut 🥥 water. It’s good!
