5 Best Thai Restaurants in Singapore (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Singapore has no shortage of Thai restaurants, but a lot of it is safe and forgettable, chasing the mall lunch crowd rather than the flavours locals actually crave. Between them, the restaurants on this page have logged nearly 20,000 Google reviews, and reviewers report paying anywhere from $10 to $50 a head, so the real decision is less about spending more and more about matching the spot to the occasion.

Short answer: Galangal in Bishan leads with a 4.9-star average across 9,181 Google reviews, by far the most of any Thai restaurant on this page, followed by ChilChil Thai Street Kitchen and Thai Tai (both 4.8). Expect to pay roughly $10 to $50 per person depending on the spot and how many dishes you share.

Watch: 5 Best Thai Restaurants in Singapore (2026)

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the restaurant’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many diners have rated them, ranked against the other Thai restaurants here. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 built on thousands of reviews carries more weight than the same score from a handful. Recency reflects how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does Thai food cost in Singapore? (2026)

Reviewers across these restaurants report a wide range depending on how many dishes you share and whether you order ala carte or a set meal. Here’s what diners actually paid, drawn from Google review price highlights on this page:

JobTypical price
Casual set meal or single dish, per person$10-$20
Ala carte sharing meal, per person$20-$40
Larger dinner with multiple mains, per person$30-$50

Ranges compiled August 2026 from diner-reported price-per-person figures left directly on Google reviews for the restaurants on this page. Actual bills vary by dish selection, group size and whether drinks or dessert are added, so treat these as a starting point rather than a quote.

Serving all of Singapore

These Thai restaurants cover Singapore island-wide, from Bishan and Ang Mo Kio in the north to Chinatown and Orchard Road in the city centre. Searching for Thai food near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and directions so you can reach the closest option fast.

What to ask before you book a table

  • Can you adjust the spice level, and how hot is ‘Thai spicy’ really?
  • Do you offer halal-certified or vegetarian options?
  • Is a reservation needed for dinner, especially on weekends?
  • Do you offer delivery or is it dine-in and pickup only?
  • Are set meals better value than ordering ala carte for our group size?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these Thai restaurants?

We started from Thai restaurants across Singapore with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which of these Thai restaurants is halal-certified?

Galangal at Bishan Clubhouse is explicitly halal-certified. Confirm certification status directly with any restaurant before booking if this is a requirement for your group.

Can I get Thai food delivered in Singapore?

Thai Tai runs a dedicated online ordering platform with islandwide delivery. Sawasdee Thai Restaurant also takes orders through its Instagram page. Check directly with the others for delivery-app availability.

The bottom line

Galangal is the safe default, with by far the deepest review record and a rating that holds at 4.9 across thousands of visits. If you’re after delivery instead of a sit-down meal, Thai Tai’s online ordering system is the easiest way in.
