Went first with a friend who worked in Thailand for 3 years, he said it was the best and most authentic Thai food outside of Thailand . I have been back since and it is always a great meal.

Located a few blocks away from Wellesley Square. Local street parking can be a challenge. It's up the street from the municipal parking lot next to the library. Friendly staff, lateness restaurant in a lower street/basement location. Large assortment of dishes but prices are relatively expensive. Lunch has more reasonable and affordable but limited selection of dishes. Decent serving sizes. Many plates don't come rice so it's ordered separately. Place can get packed on the weekends. Bathrooms are located downstairs further in the basement area.

Thai hospitality in its best. Quiet clean cozy place. Very interesting interior, pictures, photos, decoration everywhere, wooden sculptures, panos. Great menu and the cuisine is even better. The dishes tasted like it was cooked fewinutws away. Very friendly staff. I was genuinely surprised how much it resembles the restaurants back in Thailand.

There were NO cashews in the cashew chicken, there are only 4 pieces of satay and they were about half the size as they used to be, extremely expensive for the amount of food you get. We were disappointed.

I'm rounding up from 3.5 stars in reality. This place used to be of exceptional quality - it's been over 27 years since I last visited. Tonight I'd say it was so-so. The service was great - the core noodles were great - but the shrimp in both my soup and pad thai were all very overcooked and the Tom Yam, while packed with mushrooms, lacked zip/complexity (no sour in the hot-and-sour). It was a very acceptable dinner for sure - but certainly not super.

Masaman curry was plain with no vegetables. Pad Thai’s noodle to everything else ratio was very off. Was hoping for something better given the high rating.

I have been going here for decades. The food is great. I especially like their curry dishes, in particular the green curry and masaman curry. I recently placed an order for them through Grubhub, which Grubhub messed up (I will never use Grubhub again - just order directly from Amarin), and Amarin fixed and re-delivered it at no charge. I highly recommend this place.

Food was all tasty and staff attentive and friendly. My one complaint is that I'm expecting certain dishes to be very spicy but they were not. The standard hot soup with shrimp and mushrooms at every other Thai restaurant have always been very hot. This one not so much. We also ordered a seafood dish rated the max 3 stars spicy and once again just mildly so. If you like your Thai food spicy make sure to tell the waitress to make it that way.

Friendly staff, quick service, and delicious food. A great selection, too! I got the yellow curry and the hot & sour soup. Try them both! Portions are perfect—no waste or leftovers.

Yummy Thai, their black pepper curry was delicious. The waitress did a great job keeping my water glass full for me so I didn’t die of the spice!

I recently went to Amarin of Thailand and marveled at how the restaurant has kept it’s impeccable standard after all these years. My family has been dining with Sam and his family for over 25 years (since the restaurant was in Newton Corner). Every savory dish on the menu is made to perfection, infused with the most tantalizing flavors you’ll ever experience. Amarin’s cuisine is exceptional, from the appetizers, my favorites being: Chicken Satay, Siam Rolls, Saigon Dices, Shrimp in a Blanket, and recently added Chicken Wings, to the entreés: Beef Macadamia, Yellow Curry, Seaman’s Platter, Salmon Choo Chee, Pad Thai, and Indonesian Fried Rice, just to name a few. When dinner arrives, it's always a production. And with every bite, you'll experience the unique flavors that make these savory dishes a rare find. Oh, and to cleanse your palate, do try the sorbets or the mango cheesecake - you’ll thank me for it later ;) Five Stars on all fronts including cleanliness 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I have been eating at this restaurant for more decades than I care to remember. I think that their Pad Thai is the best I have found. Awhile ago, there were some problems with some of the staff who were sometimes rude to you if you complained about a problem you had with the food. That there were any problems with the food was, itself, an unfortunate development. I cannot report the exact dates, but the restaurant changed hands and now many of the previous staff members are back and they are as friendly as they had always been. The quality of the food is once again back to its high standards. And, I still frequent Amarins in Wellesley, one of my most favorite restaurants!

I have been going to this Amarin for over 30 years and the food has been reliably good with great service and a homey atmosphere. It is a staple of family dinner and an overall great restaurant.
