This is an amazing location. My wife has celiac disease, and we always have to be stringent in our efforts to find a place to eat that can accommodate this. The owner is constantly adjusting the menu to figure out ways to support this and other food allergens. Now, every fried item they sell can be shared by celiac patrons. As for the menu, they have a wide range of "diner" foods because, after all, this is a diner. The other portion of their menu is a Mediterranean assortment. Thier desserts are amazing! and all deserts are also celiac approved. Staff has always been friendly, however, some are definitely better at their job. This brings me to tips. This restaurant shares tips. Say what you will, but some of the staff deserve a bigger portion of the tips as they provide phenomenal service and you can't directly tip who you want. Location is at a busy intersection, so leaving can be a pain if not timed directly. You can eat outside or in, and the parking lot is large. All and all, a great place, and my wife's favorite to eat.

Amazing restaurant for the conscious minded!! We tried a bunch of things (see pics!!) and loved it all. My surprise favorite was the Caesar…so creamy, crisp, and delicious!! Get the seasonal tea too!! Lots of clearly marked gluten/soy/nut free options. Staff was cheerful and seemed genuinely happy to be there. Great for anything from an intimate date to a large celebration. We will be back!!

The food here is amazing! I got a lunch box with chicken tikka masala. The chicken was so tender and moist! And the rice was cooked perfectly. Everything tasted phenomenal for a great price. I have a gluten allergy and staff was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The menu is labeled as well so it is a very easy place to stop and eat!

After not visiting this establishment for over 10 years, I could tell the owner/ management had changed. It was like a fresh breath of morning sunshine just walking into Thai Garden from Main St. in Middletown. I sat down, to have the waitress quickly bring me a menu and a tall glass of ice water with lemon. I knew exactly what I wanted, so I ordered: Thom Khar Soup , and a Thai Summer Roll. The soup came and it was unusually laced with vegetables and gluten-free chicken substitute. An amazing aroma of lime, coconut , and cream came wafting up out of the bowl. The first spoonfuls were delectable, hot, ladles of goodness. The summer roll was an elegant array of colorful fresh ingredients inside a hearty rice paper wrap. Tearing into the first one was an exercise in twisting, biting, and chewing the goodies inside. One can travel far, and not find an establishment with people and their food, so dedicated to their homeland of Thailand. Stop into Thai Garden , and GO FOR IT!

We follow medical medium and this place is amazing! We tried one of almost everything on the menu. Absolutely LOVED the wrap, the Mexican lasagna (although a bit dry), twice baked sweet potatoes, empanada, and the frozen naan and bagels are to die for! Thank you for working hard to bring us healthy options without gluten, dairy, canola oil, eggs, etc… This place is a dream for anyone with allergies to those items, as the kitchen is designated gf/df!
