Best of Boston

2025 Best Thai Restaurant

Mahaniyom

Like few other places in town, this Brookline hot spot has mastered the art of escapism—one bite of the crab fried rice or the surprisingly spicy pomelo shrimp salad and you’re suddenly transported to a bustling Bangkok night market with friends. It’s the kind of place where fun evenings begin—and rarely end early, thanks to the pandan-infused daiquiris.
