Here's my honest opinion - delicious and authentic food run by warm friendly staff! We were blown away by each of the dishes and how cozy and warm the restaurant felt. Don't let the other negative reviews fool you. The air does NOT feel oily and food is perfectly seasoned.Highly recommend getting the fried tofu appetizer and the Malaysian curry noodle soup! Great portion for the price.

Do you want Asian food, but want something different from typical corner-Chinese food or sushi? Green Papaya won't let you down! Visit for Asian fusion (primarily Thai and Malaysian) and a refreshing fruit smoothie or milk tea.We ordered Homemade Crispy Tofu to start, Malaysian Curry (mild curry with your choice of protein, veggies and coconut milk), and Pad Thai. Everything was delicious and recommendable.The service was quick and friendly. The dining area is comfortable and with homey decor. Some might think that the tables are a bit too close. However, personally, I felt ok.I've been here many times and have never been disappointed. Don't hesitate to come by Green Papaya for a change of pace!
September 15 · Rich de la Torre
Lovely family-owned Thai restaurant with fantastic food and service. BYOB. We ordered Saigon beef(more than enough for 2 people). Sizzling platter arrived ASAP. Amazing flavor and just $20. There's usually a 10 min wait for table but we arrived about 5pm and were seated immediately. You should go!
August 19 · Laura Walsh
Takeout is not good. We ordered:-Crispy tofu - a little dry. I also didn't care for the sauce it came with. It was too sweet-Pad Thai - looked different from when we dined in. It was lighter in color for takeout. Also, the noodles were in pieces-Pad Kee Mao - this was pretty good. It wasn't overly spicy and the noodles held up-Pad See Ew - this was probably the worst pad see ew I've ever tasted. It was WAY too salty and sweet to the point where my mouth felt numb after eating it.I would highly recommend dining in, which stinks because I love getting takeout. But this just isn't one of the places to do it at.*UPDATED FEB 2025*Came in for dinner on a rainy Friday just before 6, and it wasn't too crowded - but it seemed like a lot of people were coming in to pick up some takeout. I had the Pad Thai with beef and hubby had the Massaman curry with beef. Pad Thais are usually a hit or miss but this one was a hit! The flavor was perfectly balanced - not too sweet, salty, or sour. Plus, the portions are HUGE! We both ate a good amount of it and had leftovers for a small meal the next day. The Massaman curry on the other hand was a miss, unfortunately. I don't know if it traditionally has peanuts in it, but it was a little weird. It was also more like a broth, then it was a curry. It was very soupy.I don't know about the curries here but it seems like they do noodles pretty well, so I definitely will be back for some more of that!
February 14 · Melanie Tam
A nice place to try Thai food. They provide something like green tea which is very refreshing. I only feel that the chicken pieces in the rice and drunken noodles can be a little smaller. Overall good place to try
