Theo Thai Bistro Bethpage

Whenever we have time to visit somewhere in Long Island we always want to eat here. The long drive atleast 30-45 minutes away from queens, is worth it. The food was really good, will be coming back!

Can’t beat the food quality and the service. Great Thai food. The staff is very attentive. They have a great lunch menu and it’s a great value. Soup, appetizers, and main dish for roughly 12 to 15 dollars. Owners are very friendly and the place is very welcoming. Bonus: the place is certified halal!

Let’s start by saying this place really isn’t a Thai restaurant in any meaningful sense. It feels more like someone’s side project — maybe a Thai home cook with little formal experience who decided to open a restaurant because they could, not because they knew how to cook authentic food. Even the simplest things are off. Free water? It’s not even chilled — just room-temperature bottles (around 75°F) already sitting on the tables. Our group of three ordered three different lunch specials. Big mistake. The “soup” that comes with the special was disappointing — instant MaMa noodles would taste better and have more flavor. The tofu green curry tasted like something from a prepackaged meal, with none of the freshness or balance you expect from Thai food. I ordered the Khao Soi curry noodles — they were mushy, overly salty, and had an unpleasant smell. Honestly, if you don’t know how to cook, please don’t open a restaurant. Even if you’re not a professional chef, you should at least know what good food tastes like.
