I can't say enough good things about this place. I'm so glad it survived the Covid crisis. The food is top-notch, and the service is exactly what you'd expect from a small, family-owned restaurant: friendly, knowedgeable,, happy to accommodate special requests. A+ all around

We love Thai Nakorn! I get the pad thai at least once every two weeks. And I love it so much. The pad see ew is also delicious! My partner gets the drunken noodles or the green curry and he always raves about how good it is!Pro tip: order a side of peanut sauce and add some to your noodles for a touch of sweet and creaminess.We’ve never had any issues with our food. It’s always prepared in a timely manner and when we pick it up the staff is always so nice and friendly.

Wow! What an amazing meal - so glad I found this place. Enjoyed the Shrimp Pad Thai, Drunken beef noodles, spicy eggplant w/chicken & Thai basil, pork and shrimp dumplings and a Thai tea ~ who could ask for anything more!?The server was friendly and the food arrived quick.Only positives/No negatives to say about this place. Loved it!! Looking forward to trying something new next time.

They serve rotten meat. It tasted horrible and made both of us sick.

Not spicy enough. No fork, no spoon, no napkins. I'm in a hotel so I dont have any silverware. By the time I found some, my food was well on the way to being cold. Very disappointed. The yum pra muk was 99% giant iceberg lettuce chunks with a couple pieces of rubbery squid tossed in. Maybe that's what it's supposed to taste like, but I didn't care for it, and it certainly wasn't worth the ten bucks they charged. The crispy seafood paradise wasn't bad but I had to microwave everything so the breaded fish, shrimp, and scallops were soggy and gross. I tipped 5 bucks but they didn't even deliver to the room, just left it in the lobby, which probably contributed to it being cold. All in all, it was a waste of 40 bucks.

One of the worst tai places in the area ! Literally choose anything else. I ordered the fried rice with a free protein… they didn’t let me know that I was going to be charged extra for that until the food was ready and time to pay… they gave me food with no utensils, napkins or sauce… so when I asked she handed me 1 paper towel, and 1 fork. When I told her I was upset… she had nothing to say. Ridiculously small portions for the $$$ ! This place is cheap as balls but will up charge you like it’s the best restaurant in the world.

The worst thai food i have ever eaten!!!! Made my entire family sick for two days. Chicken was rancid and no flavor at all in the curry. Save your money and do not eat here!!!! How do they serve things this gross?

So glad we live in the neighborhood of this authentic, fresh Thai food home. Hands down better than every other place around!

Consistently great, authentic Thai food. Every entree we have ever ordered was enough food for 2 or 3 dinners, so, the prices are more than reasonable. Food is ready promptly. They don't have indoor dining ever since Covid; so, let's support them with take-out orders! I encourage you to try them, we need more family-owned restaurants like this in the Mount Vernon area.

Awesomeness. And great to know that it's here as Thai Herb is closed :(
