Benjarong Thai Cuisine in Mary Esther - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Dined in and had the Lad Na. Was surprised that although only 2 tables were ahead of us the food took about 40 some minutes to arrive. Luckily I was there to catch up and hang with a friend otherwise I’d be pretty upset it took so long. Servers are friendly and refill drinks promptly. The food was good, would not dine in again (can’t imagine the wait times if it was busy) but I would order take out

Absolutely delicious. Was recommended this restaurant for a more authentic Thai meal, and I was not disappointed! Everything was incredible start to finish.

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area. We were out of state on vacation and we were wanting some curry. After some research on google this was the top rated Thai Curry restaurant. I can fully confirm this is one of the best red curry I have had the opportunity to eat! Will definitely come back if we are ever back in this area. The spice level was perfect for both me and my boyfriend. Cute till shop just off the road, great customer service. I will happily give them a 5 star rating!

A regular of ours … love the food and service. They know our order: my wife loves the pad pak, my daughter the pad sukiyaki and myself, their pad thai.

Great hidden gem! Tons of flavor and amazing service. Definitely a must try for all.

😋Always delicious! Our go to local spot for Thai food. The Papaya Salad and the Pepper Garlic Pork are a must. Everything is fresh and cooked to order! We had the Shrimp Tempura, the Crab Rangoons, the Fried Wontons, the Papaya Salad, the Glass Noodle Salad, and the Beef Noodle Soup.🤤

My favorite Thai restaurant in Mary Esther. A family owned and operated business. Always great service, always delicious food.

Simply the best Thai food in the area! The service is always wonderful, the portions are generous and the food will arrive fresh and piping hot.

3.99% cash discount! From the outside, Benjarong doesn't look like much, but don't let that fool you. There's a feeling of the place being stitched together over a period of time... which is truly part of it's appeal. Inside is a wonderful atmosphere with great service and amazing food. Prices are great and portions are large. Spice levels are on the lower end with even the "Thai Hot" being what I'd typically consider a 3-4 (out of 5).

Welcoming, very friendly staff. Excellent food. The pork egg rolls are very full of pork - not mostly cabbage. The fried rice was delicious - large portions. We will be back!

Went here as it was listed as best place to eat near our hotel, on Trip Adviser, whilst on vacation from the UK 🇬🇧 The place does not look fancy from outside and is simply furnished inside - it's clean and functional - because the food is what it's all about! Helpful Nancy walked us through the cuisine and asked us the spice levels we would be comfortable with. My wife doesn't like spicy food, I love it! We ordered shrimp spring rolls and they were delicious. Light batter and tasty big shrimp. For mains we had a beef noodle dish, and a vegetable stir fry, served with rice. Everything was fresh, delicious and the portions huge. It's not expensive and you can get something a little different here. Also tried the Thai Tea which is nothing like tea, comes in a pint glass, tastes like a dessert, and is delicious too! Highly recommended 🇬🇧

Food was excellent. Definitely some of the best Thai food I have had! Don't let the outside of the restaurant keep you away!

This is absolutely the best Thai restaurant around, and there are many!If what you are looking for is a fancy place with snooty people,don't go here.If you'd like to be pleasantly surprised by gourmet level food in a humble environment with normal people at a reasonable price,check it out.Any negative reviews of this place should really be dismissed as negative people.We,as locals,don't want them here anyway.

Unassuming family-run thai restaurant, with fantastic food, and awesome staff! Loved the Pad Thai

We really enjoyed the food and service here. Air conditioning would be nice, but I guess it was pretty authentic!

Best Thai I’ve ever eaten!!!! I didn’t take any pictures because we couldn’t wait to start eating! You know it’s delicious when your husband says “even the after burps taste good” 😂 we had the crab ragoons, tea rose dumplings, pepper garlic pork, pad Thai, and Tom Kah Chicken soup. Every bite was AMAZING. The family that owns the restaurant are total gems and so welcoming. We cannot wait to visit here again on our next vacation to Ft. Walton.

Quick service for lunch. Curry and veggie rolls were good.

Delicious Thai! Me and my husband eat Thai food all the time and this place was one of our favorites! Our waitress was really sweet and the food was amaaaazing!! Price super fair! Totally recommend.

We went last night for the first time and we were not disappointed! It was sooooo good!! We tried a little of everything.. Tea Rose Dumplings, Chicken Satay, Bang Bang Shrimp, Spring Rolls, a soup with glass noodles and sausage, a veritable dish with chicken. Everything was fresh, made in house, hot and so flavorful! Don't let the exterior scare you away. Never judge a book by its cover!

Foods good, average thai food quick and easy. Server asked if I wanted spice and nuts, I said sure and the cashews were 3 dollars for a tiny cup… wish i would’ve been told. It was labeled “extra mixed veggies”

Wonderful local place with friendly staff. Tea rose dumplings are delicious and a generous portion. I love the chicken pad Thai and garlic chicken. This is a local gem!

Easily the best Thai food in FWB. Try their soups!

👍🏻 Support Thai Local Bussiness. Don’t miss!! The best Real Thai’s Foods in Navarre Beach.

Please revise your menu…I Ordered E17 PAD MEE and received thin noodles that was colored red & tasted sweet. The menu said “ Stir fried noodles with onions and bean sprouts. Please revise your menu to let people who have never tried this type of food to read exactly what is in the dish! I was expecting exactly what it said. It should have read ‘sweet’ in the description. I Did not eat.

Delicious! The thai tea is amazing and love their spicy dishes!

It’s quaint, not fancy, with delicious meals and friendly servers. We had two diff lunches that were fabulous!! We’ll be back soon!!!

Kind of a hole in the wall, but the nicest staff and amazing food! Don't let it's humble exterior stand in the way of great food!

New menu as of Jan 2024 Chicken fried rice dinner, beef salad NEW LOCATION same owner, same good taste home made style Thai Food Tuesday May 10th, 2022

My favorite Thai food in the area; I could eat here everyday. Highly recommend the grilled pork skewers, the lunch specials are plenty and very reasonable, curries are great, larb delicious, soups are robust and they give a big serving, classic pad Thai is wonderful, love the spring rolls, and Thai tea/coffee aren't over sweetened!... Truly never had bad meal here. My #1 recommendation in the area. Oh and the ladies are so nice; we always see the same faces and they're personal and sweet.

The food was excellent. My kids really liked and we will be back

I love Thai food and while traveling I always try different Thai restaurants but this place was one of the best. I got yellow curry add red bell peppers that was so good. I also got the bang bang shrimp and that’s what I just loved.

I had the red curry and it was ahhhhhhmazing! Service was great as well. If I were a local I’d be a regular.

Fantastic as allways!! Garlic pepper pork is my favorite thing to get i could eat it every day of my life..

It is the best Thai food in this area we live in Navarre Fla it’s about 30 minutes to the restaurant but is worth every dish we’ve had

Oh man I wish we lived closer. While it's not much to look at, tucked back from the road with a meandering parking lot, the magic begins when you step inside. You can sit where able and the servers come to you (although we did have retrieve our own menus.) We got our drink order quickly then our orders in (four of us: three chicken Pad Thai, one beef). A couple ordered "Hot", one "Medium" and one "No Spice". No one wanted to take the chance on "Thai Hot". Each item came out on time and the portions were large. It was delicious! Best pad thai on the Emerald Coast! We each took some home with us. Can't wait for left overs. We'll be back when near Ft Walton Beach.

We love it here. Food and service are always great.

Excellent Thai food. Can't go wrong here.

Good food at good prices and a great staff

If you’re looking for a non-chain family-run place to get some delicious Thai food, this is your place. I eat here once a week and HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Pad See Ew!!

We travel the country, and this has to be one of the best Thai restaurants we eat at. Everything is consistently good (we’ve been coming here for years), and I love that it’s a family owned restaurant.

This is by far fort Walton Beaches gem. It is a blessing to me and the bless him to this city to have y'all here. I have ate that many different restaurants in this city and most of the time Disappointed. This is the only establishment that I have ever eating at that I have no complaints. My food is always fresh. Always flavorful. They had the best egg drop soup I've ever eaten. Always greet you with a smile and make you feel welcome. All I can say is thanks. Thank you very much. You truly deserve this post.

The wait staff are just adorable and friendly!

I have been there 3 times, every time I enjoyed there nice food!

Super adorable little Thai restaurant! Great food and our server was absolutely amazing!

Love this family own restaurant!! Tastes just like my momma’s cooking!! 10/10 recommend!! 🤍🤍

What an Awesome restaurant! The food is Amazing 😋. The Service and Atmosphere makes you feel like Home. I Highly Recommend Benjarong. 😁

Family-run restaurant serving a variety of Thai and Thai-inspired food. I’ve eaten a lot of Thai food and found some things I’d never tried before. Food was excellent and fast and the service was exceptional.

Excellent Thai food! I had pad Thai and I tried my family’s dishes. Everything was exceptional.

We tried several dishes and they all were fantastic. Friendly service and great food.

Love crab Rangoon! Beef Lo mien? Thai Beef Salad all sooo yum!! I’ve been a regular for 5 years. Excellent food and Service. I will only eat here for Thai

Very good service and amazing fresh food with authentic flavors. Strongly recommend this place. Loved the place, definitely would visit again when i return to Fort Walton. Recommend shrimp tempura, chicken satay, garlic chicken, pad thai, massaman curry. Pepper steak I’d skip. They could improve the air conditioning setup to make the inside cooler, it was humid and hot in certain section in July. We had to wait and move to a section that had decent air conditioning coverage.

Best Thai food in Fort Walton Beach/Mary Esther!!!

Food was truly amazing. Ordered fried potstickers and bang bang shrimp. Friends got other dumplings. I got Shrimp Pad Thai spicy, but not Thai spicy. Food we delicious. Service was good. Building was a little warm in the heat of a hot day, but not uncomfortable. Will eat here again!

Amazing service and food! So glad we came, perfect place if you don't want to drive all the way to Destin for a 5 star meal!

Hands down! The best Thai Restaurant in town. Service is great too!

Best Thai ever!! Food was so tasty and well seasoned! Nancy took great care of us as well! I’d highly recommend this place to any lover of Thai food!!

Service was excellent. Food was really good. The squid rings weren't chewy, but perfect and not salty at all. The eggplant dish was excellent and I've not seen that on menus of other Thai restaurants in the area.

Absolutely delish! Definitely off the beaten path type of spot but so worth it. Had the pad thai and it was flavorful and tofu was good & crispy! Partner had pad see eew and loved it. The thai coffee was also superb and service was warm & friendly.

I always try the Pad Thai first at any Thai places and the flavor was great! Except I didn’t get medium spicy like I asked. I got mild and there was no spice to be found. It came with a salad and two small egg rolls. I honestly it would’ve tasted exponentially better with some spicy level to it. I was a little disappointed but I’d be back and try other things. The wait time is 20+ during lunch during the week. Call ahead if ordering takeout!

Food is delicious and friendly staff! Definitely coming back!

Had one of the BEST thai food❤️ Nikky was very very welcoming and with amazing hospitality. The food here was AMAZING. We had soups, satay chicken, red curry, pad thai and sticky mangoes rice (seasonal) and everything was yummm yummm. Come here of you want to try some loved thai food made by the lovely family❤️

Family and I got a bunch of stuff and everything was great. Love the cucumber salad!

The fried rice is really good. You can add two meats to it as well

They have the best shrimp fried rice I've ever had in my life!!

The best!!! Consistent food quality!

What amazing atmosphere and family to get amazing Thai food from...MuchLove to our waitress that sat us at table 7 we will be back....always good eats

Solid spot! From the service to the food, we will be back again. We got the shrimp pad Thai (yum!) sukiyaki, beware, ‘Thai hot’ is pretty hot, pot stickers, egg drop soup, and perfectly ripe mango and sticky rice. Everything was delicious! If you’re in the mood for good thai with great service, do yourself a favor.

This was one of my fav places to eat when I lived here. Came back for vacation and it didn’t miss! The pad pak is everything I ever needed in my life. Crab Rangoon are awesome as always. Egg rolls (appetizer) was so good (meat all the way through it!). We will definitely keep coming here as long as they feed me!

Love this place. Every dish I've had there was delicious, the staff is incredibly polite and they're very prompt with getting your food out to you. I recommend this place to everyone when they want Thai in this area.

This place is always busy. It seems delicious! The staff is realky amazing g and considering. We have eaten in and ordered take out. They seem to want to consider you as a customer and care about what they are serving you. We ordered food for our child and they kept trying to offer something else because they didn't want to serve him.bland food, which he likes sometimes. It was nice they were worried about our child. Just simply an amazing place. Best Thai food in Fort Walton Beach/ Mary Ester.

Best Thai food in all navarre,Pensacola, Destin

Best Thai food in town as it is FULL of flavor! Especially the fried rice, yummmmmmy. Nicky and Nancy are just the sweetest and make you feel like you are dining at their home.

I got the pad Thai, husband got the beef noodle soup. They were both great, especially the soup broth. We also tried the Thai milk tea which was sweet and delicious. I highly recommend this place!

I judge a Thai restaurant by their pad thai. This pad thai is exactly the type that I love. Moist, sweet and savory in the perfect balance, with noodles at the right texture. I decided to go back and try more dishes and I was pleasantly surprised to gobble up the beef pad see ew and the shrimp Tom Yum soup.

At first glance the place is less than appealing but now that I've eaten there twice I find it to be the best curry I've ever had both times. First the yellow then the red.

My family and I visited Benjarong this evening for dinner. We LOVED this place. The food was hands down delicious and the two sisters working the front were the best. We will make sure to visit this restaurant anytime we are in town.

Have the best Korean BBQ (called Pepper Garlic pork) and rice with cabbage, and salad and veggies, with spring roll for lunch. Great price, a locals hangout!

Absolutely amazing with very flavorful yet balanced food. In my experience you also get really good portions. Great place with incredible quality.

The server was friendly, the food tasted great! Highly recommend this place

Authentic and fresh food! Very nice staff as well. I had the Green Curry with pork.

Very friendly staff and truly authentic Thai food! Great find in the area! Aroy mak mak!

There are A LOT of Thai restaurants in this area, but this one is the best in my opinion. Everything from the appetizers to the entrees to the Thai Iced Tea is just perfection. They moved from their previous location, and the new place has a lot more seating if you want to dine-in. Love it!

While visiting we saw there were a lot of Thai restaurants. So we picked one and ended up here. I’ve eaten Thai food around the US and this was by far the best to be found. The staff is super friendly. If you’re in the area this is a must try. The shrimp Pad Thai is fantastic.

Super good food and amazing thai tea. Food came out really quick and the fried tofu was *chefs kiss*

Outstanding food , food came out hot and fresh. not greasy or oily , service was amazing and the place was clean and smells good, not to mention very fair pricing for food portion

Huge portions! And they were accommodating to all of our requests. Plus, the setting of the restaurant is fantastic. It wasn’t too busy while we were there, and it just felt relaxing to stop into the place and have some good food in a calm atmosphere. Well recommended.

I got the beef noodle soup. I haven't really ate food like this before, but I loved it! It was very fragrant and tasty. I felt rejuvenated after eating it. The portion was large, I could only eat half and had to take the rest home with me.

Very clean, friendly and attentive waitstaff, and delicious food!

Great place, wonderful service, and very tasty food!!

I think they forgot to season my fried rice. Super bland… no salt even. The Pad Cashew was better but still not very impressed. I remember this establishment being much better 4 or 5 years ago. Might give them another shot in the hopes it was a fluke.

Visiting the area and found this restaurant. The food was amazing! Thai hot, definitely means spicy. The service was wonderful and the Thai tea is a must!

Flavorful Pad Thai, although I wish it would have had a larger portion of fresh vegetables, bean sprouts, carrot, cabbage, green onions etc. I was really disappointed with the tofu, it was very dry and chewy, the nice person on the phone was sadly unable to tell me if it was gluten free. I asked for extra limes, but got only three sad wedges. Their peanut sauce was a different consistency than I was used to, but good. Overall the tofu was the most disappointing, but will certainly try again soon. 😊

Always a pleasurable experiance at this neighborhood family owned resturant.

The food is awesome and the staff are great!!

Honestly the best Thai food I’ve had in this entire area. The yellow curry is soooooooo delicious. The staff is friendly and they get your food ready very quickly. Easily 10/10

Those eggrolls they serve are the absolute best! Actually anything I've tried have been delish.

Just to let you know, Benjarong has move to new location as of this past July - 140 E Miracle Strip Pkwy, Mary Esther, FL 32569. It is right next to the Tee Luck Lounge. The food is still great but they don't make the stuffed wing appetizer anymore but there is still other tasty options. Love the Bang-Bang shrimp.

Excellent! You have the option of ordering without fish sauce!
