About Grandma’s Philly
Located in Center City Philadelphia, Grandma’s Philly is inspired by Chef Locket’s grandmother’s home cooking and the comforting flavors of her childhood in Thailand. The menu celebrates the bold harmony of Thai cuisine — a balance of spice, sweetness, and brightness — crafted with care and made to share.

Cooking from memory and guided by family recipes, Chef Locket transforms tradition into vibrant, family-style plates that invite connection. Proudly recognized as Philly’s Favorites Silver Winner for Thai Food in 2024 and 2025, Grandma’s Philly shares the warmth of Thai hospitality through food — not just a meal, but a story told through flavor.

    Excellent food quality in taste and presentation. Rose wine on menu paired really well with our menu items. Ambience was young and hip with us being on the slightly older side. What completely marred the experience was very slow and poor service. Waited an interminable amount of time between soup, appetizer and main meal courses. Did not feel it even worth the wait to consider dessert!

    Great vibes! Food tastes amazing, service is always on point. We came in for a birthday dinner and they even set the table up with the month’s birthday flower. My girlfriend loved that little detail. Overall we always have a great experience dining at Grandma’s.
