Amarin Of Thailand - Newton

Amarin offers a light, bright style of Thai cooking, quite different from the creamy sauces at most area Thai restaurants. This style calls for very fresh protein, vegetables and herbs, as the sauce cannot cover up ingredients that are less than perfect. The curries are fresh, with a clean, light sauce. Each dish is prepared fresh and arrived hot from the wok. The dining room is slightly below street level, nicely presented. The table is well presented, and the room is decorated with interesting Thai artworks. Service is excellent. Our server paid just the right amount of attention and was a pleasant and charming person. The restaurant is on a busy corner but there is lots of parking at the building.

We tried Thai Amarin on a week night and really enjoyed ourselves. It was not too busy but not deserted either. The ambience was lively and the staff was friendly and patient too. A special mention for the person who took our order(I wish I had caught his name): we were a group of 7 and we ordered multiple appetizers, main course dishes and beverages with quite a few specifications. He managed to take our order without writing it down and got it right, including all the specifications! We were skeptical about our orders, but were pleasantly surprised. Thanks for that! About the food: Firstly, considering we weren't the only group in the restaurant, the food came out pretty fast. The portions size were good and the ingredients were fresh! We loved the taste overall. The only thing we felt was that mushrooms weren't cooked enough in our entrées. But otherwise, can't think of anything negative about the experience. Will definitely recommend and visit again!

Nice and comfy place in Newton. The food is good and service is great. Also has free parking behind the restaurant.

I have to say, this is probably one of my favorite Thai places lately. Service was attentive. Food was really good. And atmosphere was so relaxed and quiet. Nice decor and and cool zones separation.

Really liked the food! We ordered mostly appetizers (golden sacks, edamame, spring rolls, wonton soup) and dessert, with one entrée. The ambience was warm, and the service was good—though our server seemed a bit unenthusiastic but followed through on everything with perfection.
