We went there on Jan 21. There weren’t a lot of people there and it seemed like there were only 3 people working. We guessed it was a husband and wife and one of their mothers, but the food was fantastic.

Paragon Thai in NW 100% is my answer. I used to get takeout from them once a week before reigning in my spending lol. Great portions and great flavors. Consistency is pretty good. I do think sometimes they have a different kitchen staff that makes the food slightly different but 9/10 times it’s so good (the other 10% it isn’t bad, just not quite as good? Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, the Tofu Lover dish, their curry, their mango sticky rice. All of it I love. Oh their Brussel sprouts too! My partner lived in Thailand for a few months and has said this is the best Thai she’s had since moving back to the States.

Thai Pad is my go-to for affordable 8/10 Thai food, everything on their menu is good. 10 being Michelin star status

Pantry in Petworth is decent, and they also have sushi, which is always a bonus. Thai X-ing, which is more about authentic, home-style Thai cusine, is amazing, and closing soon, so you should check it out while you can. It's a great experience.

DEFINITELY Thai Pad in Van Ness. Especially their drunken noodles.

I'll agree with the others that Siam House is very good. Super convenient red line access too.

Thai Chef Street Food in dupont has to be my favorite. If you like your thai leaning towards the spicier end of the spectrum, this is your place. I like the vibe of the place in general as well.

Bua on P Street. 25+ years of their pad Thai and I want more. They know what they are doing!

OP: Baan Siam is definitely the answer, but they don’t serve Pad Thai or Drunken Noodles. Go and be amazed. If you really like those specific dishes, Thai Square on Columbia Pike in Arlington is good - and also has a good deal of menu items that are harder-to-find (e.g. quite a few Thai noodle soups).

I'd say Kin Da is good but not great. I go there a lot because it's convenient (walking distance from where I live), but if I want more variety I order delivery from Charm Thai in Silver Spring.
