This is probably the best Thai food I’ve had in the area in awhile. I was pleased with the service and the place was nice, well kept, and also extremely busy. People of all ages eating here, and quite a lot of families. The restaurant is kind of in a strange location, and I actually had no idea it existed until I read about it on Menuism! Thanks Foodha :-)

The food was delicious – and the Chantanee specials section on the menu all looked pretty unique. I would like to come back here and try more of those. They’ve also got all the standard Thai dishes on the menu as well.

This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the region, and I don’t get out here as much as I should (or want to). Located below street level, at the rear of a strip mall, Chantanee is pretty well hidden and easy to miss if you’re not looking for it. But if you are able to find it, you’re rewarded with friendly and prompt service, tasty and authentic Thai food, and a cozy, homey atmosphere.

Simply a great place for Thai food in the Eastside. It gets busy during lunch and weekends, but they have a great way of getting customers seated, served and then paying in a jiffy. Plenty of parking makes it convenient for a downtown location.

i usually find most thai places “pretty good”, but chantanee just stands out from the crowd! in addition to the more typical thai items (curry, pad thai, etc.) which they make very well, they have some really yummy dishes that i’ve never had or even seen at other thai places!

family style sharing of a few dishes is great for dinner, and the lunch specials seem like a good individual-option, not to mention a good deal (if i worked closer, i might come here more often for lunch :)). can be kind of busy on weekends, but it’s usually not hard to get a table for a group of 4 or 5. for larger parties, they do take reservations and there’s always parking available! :)

My finance teacher actually owns this restaurant. I went to it once and had the phad thai and green curry and it wasn’t anything too special, so i didn’t go back for quite some time. My close friends go to Chantanee’s all the time and finally convinced me to try again . . they knew exactly what to order and it was delicious!!!

Applying my yardstick for all Thai places (Phad Thai), this place measures up. The noodles are the right consistency and the sauce is not overly wet.

Also try the fried bananas. It’s a great dessert for anyone that doesn’t mind collecting some cholesterol points.

Being one of my most favorite type of food, I must say that I have been longing for some good thai food for quite some time after living in pittsburgh for over a year now. And Chantanee didn’t disappoint. It’s been mentioned as a local favorite that is hard to find, but when people do, they’re glad they made the effort.
They have a long extensive menu that you can see for youself on their website and you can order every dish up to 5 levels of hotness. I chose 3 “hot” and it wasn’t too bad. Next time I may try 4.
And if you know your thai food, you can also make requests for any dish and the chef will make it special for you. (it’s a family owned restaurant so it’s got a nice homey feel)

pretty decent Thai food the last couple of times I have been there (for the Eastside)

It’s a very good place for Thai food. I’ve had several things here that I like most of the time. Today I shared yellow curry fried rice w/ chicken with a friend and tried one of their soups, Tom Yum (tried, cuz it was 3 stars, and it was too hot for me). The curry rice had a very nice flavor. I’d definitely come back, but try more meat dishes v. rice dishes, to get more protein. :)
