The best Thai food in Miami, according to the experts: the Michelin Guide, the Miami New Times, and The New York Times have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Lung Yai Thai Tapas comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

A tiny Thai tapas spot tucked into Little Havana with no reservations and a line to prove it. The menu mixes familiar standbys with Northern Thai specialties, khao soi among them, and the kitchen sends plates out faster than you can clear them, so order more than you think you need. The Michelin Guide has it listed, which goes some way toward explaining why a nook this small draws this much patience from a city not famous for waiting.

A tuk tuk parked in the back of a Fort Lauderdale strip mall sets the tone at this no-reservations Isan Thai restaurant, where the menu runs well past the usual curry-and-pad-thai circuit. The kitchen leans into the northeastern Thai repertoire, and when they ask how spicy you want it, they mean it as a real question. The Michelin Guide has taken notice, and the crowd filing in on a weeknight suggests word has been around for a while.

The larb comes one way: hot or Thai hot, and the co-owner will tell you which to order. This neighborhood Thai bistro in North Miami runs on Isan flavors, the kind that are fragrant and punchy in equal measure, and the whole fried snapper with house chile sauce has regulars coming back for it specifically. The New York Times named it among Miami's 25 best restaurants. Small room, big cooking, and Ricky himself helps out over the summer.
