The drunken noodles were so good! I got them with chicken, but I imagine they would be good with any protein. The lunch special was cool. It came with fried wonton strips and soup.
The only thing me and my boyfriend could say during our time here was "Wow". After every bite, total bliss. We got the pork banh mi buns which were so fluffy and seasoned so well. My boyfriend got the Jolly Rancher cocktail and he said it tasted just like a jolly rancher!! I got the Pad Prik and it was perfect blend of spice and sweetness ?✨ We also got the Pad Woonsen and it tasted great, on top of the Thai crepe!! The Thai crepe was so flaky and the mangos were so sweet ? 10/10 will def come again! Service was also fast and the outdoor area is so cozy
I heard about this place from a friend and it was a pleasant surprise. The restaurant has a very romantic vibe to it. The service was very good and quick with bringing our orders out. I ordered a cocktail called jolly rancher and it was so good it tasted just like a green jolly rancher. We ordered pork banh mi buns and they were the best buns I've had the bun itself was very soft and the pork was delicious. I got the pad woonsen which I believe is glass noodle dish and my girlfriend got pad prik both were very tasty. I haven't seen these dishes at other Thai restaurants so which I'd say speaks to the authenticity of this restaurant. I really wanted to try the Thai crepes before even coming here which is another Thai dish that I hadn't seen before and we both loved it. This is by far my favorite Thai place and we'll be sure to come back.
Both experiences I’ve had here have been sub par. First time I waited 30 minutes to be served at the bar, and an hour for my food that wasn’t worth the wait. Decided to give them a second try so we ordered two specialty rolls to go. One had a shrimp shell in it and turned us off the whole roll, second roll was decent but certainly not worth the $20 price tag. Spring rolls were also sub par.If you want Asian flavor in noda there are much better places just a short drive away for way more competitive prices.
Part of our order was cold. Marinara for the cheese sticks for my kids was ice cold literally. I told the guy twice that I was ordering the Lo Mein but he left it off anyway. Hard to talk to the staff at the food truck. They don’t even acknowledge you. So you’re staring at a screen in the window wondering if it’s okay to order or not. Thus, the reason my Lo Mein wasn’t heard. Horrible experience. And food is mediocre.
The Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) just weren’t great… they were over cooked, lacked flavor, vegetables and soggy…. I’ve eaten this dish at hundreds of authentic Thai restaurants on the west coast, and this was candidly one of the least impressive examples. I’ll give the restaurant another try, but don’t go here expecting to be impressed by this dish. I ordered 4/5 spicy, and it barely made my nose sweat. For some reason, everything also had a subtle gas/charred undertone to it as well. Conclusion: I’ve had amazing Thai food for half this price, so it can be done.
My first time to eat here today. I was VERY hungry after my group toured the Duke Mansion. The place was dark — not the romantic kind of dark; I would say, trying to hide something dark... Asked for a recommendation from the staff and was told Pad Prik. It was a considerable amount of wait time for my food to arrive.... BUT, the food was NOT hot — not even warm!!! I’m hungry, I ate it — but all the while wondering why the food is not hot IFFF it was newly cooked.... Food tastes good, but still....
Good food overall. Skip the Thai Ice Tea. Skip the Lava cake
Get the Tom Yum soup. It’ll change your nostrils and your life. Or it’s just soup. You decide. One of my top spots for a chill night in, or head to the cozy patio for a quaint day out.
Very good Thai food as per Charlotte standard. I would seat outside compared to inside due to thick food smell.
