The Massaman Curry (no heat) was very good and the sauce would be great on rice. The mango chutney was yummy! The Red Curry was a bit salty. The staff was great and locals really like the place for carry out!

It pains me to write this as I love to support local business, however we tried this place and left disappointed.
We ordered 2 apps and 2 entrees. First thing, it took so long to order we almost left but we had already strapped our toddler into his high chair that we brought (they didn’t have one). Finally, our server took the entire order at once asking us how spicy we wanted our dishes, we said mild for both.
The apps came out first and they were ok. The papaya salad was a little plain with no herbs but was decent. For $19 the portion was good but just plain looking. The vegetable rolls had an oil sauce to dip in that wasn’t good. I got peanut sauce on the side which was much better.
My pad Thai came out and was good! Happy with it. We waited and waited for the other entree and finally asked and the server totally forgot, didn’t remember anything about ordering. We would have considered to fire it up then but everything took so long we said forget it and my partner didn’t end up eating anything. Not to mention his dish was $42– how are you doing to forget that price at a mom and pop place ???
We never go out to eat anymore as we have kids; planned to treat ourselves and it was just not a good experience.
It makes me sad bc I really wanted to find a cute spot to bring visitors or get take out and we will probably never come back.
Oh they did offer to give us free tapioca — so for $62 we got papaya salad a few spring rolls (small) and pad Thai

Stunning dining experience. Superb, friendly service that feels like you’re eating with friends at their home. Beautifully decorated. Just the right spacing - you feel both intimacy and community. The fresh watermelon juice was perfect on a warm day. We ordered spring rolls that were light, delicious, and unlike anything we’d had before. For the entree we enjoyed mung bean noodles and Thai red curry. Both were superb. On an island known for amazing restaurants, Chao Phya Thai manages to land at the top of our list of favorites. Well done and thank you!

5 stars all the way! From the moment we arrived, we were treated as valuable and welcomed guests. Before we were seated, we had the opportunity to learn about and see the evenings specials. Our server was funny and attentive and gave great recommendations. All four of us enjoyed everything we ate and will definitely be back. This was worth the drive away from Waikiki. If you like hot, definitely go a heat level higher than you are used to, the heat was a bit mild (though they did bring some sauce on the side for us to add).

Came to dine in and ended up with takeout because it took nearly an hour to get two plates of food. No one updated us that the server had placed the order 30 minutes late. The food is decent but it will take me a long time to ever give this place a second chance.

My mom and I stopped here after running some errands, and we were pleasantly surprised! The waiter was open, friendly, and had us cracking up through our meal. The food was delicious, and each of the entrees were big enough to share. The owner got us to try a pumpkin gelato special for dessert, and I was blown away! I definitely recommend this!

My goodness, this is a fabulous Thai food restaurant in Kailua. Can it be? It is hidden, I have driven by there so often and drove right by. The garlic Seafood Medley is must try, stuffed chicken wings, the Patties were great.

I like their papaya salad, but the Tom Yum is less authentic. I think they try to make it comfortable for the locals to eat. I’m a little disappointed that the soup isn’t as as spicy as I want it to be. I also asked for their chilly sauce, and it’s surprisingly not as hot. But the soup itself is good. I also ordered mango sticky rice and it was really good.

Amazing people we felt so welcomed. Food was excellent.

Such a wonderful experience! Everyone was so sweet. you can tell they genuinely care about their customers and it creates a wonderful atmosphere. The food was absolutely amazing!!

Very friendly and kind, amazing service

Great food amazing service. Very friendly helpful staff.

Absolutely excellent! Superbly delicious!! Great service and delicious food. Very tastefully decorated too.

We are local residents.
We did take out spring rolls. They were maybe 1/2 inch long, maybe, with virtually no filling and no condiments to speak of except some large pieces of lettuce. This was $12 and so not worth it. Don’t do it

Mina n guy are sweet ,good food and service with aloha

March 13, 2024
this was takeout pad see ew, nothing added. $22. it was filled below half the container. service is great. but that doesn't exactly make up for prices and amount given. also, it looked like chow funn. sorry, not sure if I'd come back. just disappointed.

Set the bar too high. I haven't had better tom yum or sticky rice elsewhere. Every time I have it somewhere else, I find myself disappointed.

Food was below average. Green curry tasted like a can of coconut milk instead. Mung Bean noodles ingredients tasted hard and sour. Highly not recommend.

Very friendly service, got take out so I can’t speak to the atmosphere but it seemed nice. Dinner was a bit underwhelming though. I was looking for noodles but menu was a bit limited so I ordered drunken noodles with veggies, thai hot (+$4 up charge for veg so I guess if you don’t pay to add something you just get noodles?). The spice level was good but otherwise not a lot of flavor. The noodles honestly just tasted like they came from the grocery store and for the upcharge the veggies were pretty minimal. Maybe I just picked bad or got a subpar order but there are better places around.

Chef was inebriated. Pushing appetizers on customers after customers had already ordered. A small appetizer portion was served by the chef. Customers thought it was complimentary. Chef embarrassed customer by telling her in front of diners she was trying to get a free appetizer when customer questioned why there was a delay with the bill that did not have an appetizer ordered. A very unpleasant experience. Never going back.

Absolutely the best Thai food and personalized service.Relatively fast service.Special herbs, healthy preparation.

Great experience. Their service was impeccable. We got there and was immediately seated. The young guy helping us brought the menus and water. He came back and asked if we had questions. He suggested a few items based on our feedback of what we liked. We ended up with Drunken Noodles and Stuffed Chicken Wings. Both were excellent. The noodles seasoned perfectly while the wings came out hot and crispy. Back to the service...the server came back to check on us to see how we liked his recommendations, filled our water multiple times, etc. It seems like a family owned place. I would highly recommend stopping by if you're in the Kaneohe area.

I came in to.order/ pick up soup for friends not feeling well. Ordered Tom Yum/ Tom kha with tofu. White rice snd noodles. Out of this world good!!!!!

Small, quaint restaurant that has very enjoyable staff and great food. Will be going back.

If it wasn’t for sweet weight staff (Cindy and a few other ladies) I honestly would have gotten up and left. I felt extremely uncomfortable… The head chef/owner was a total pervert… never should you go up to your customers in their 20s as a 50/60 year old saying “hot chick alert” and proceeding to flirt with them. Totally unprofessional and just gross.

If any recommendations are given, ask how much more.! I paid $88 for just me alone. All I wanted was spring rolls, green shrimp curry with sticky rice and mung bean noodles. Curry was salty and don't add the kabocha squash($6.50 more) , didn't taste right! Mung bean noodles was good. Won't be going there anymore!

Awesome service! I recommend that everything they suggests go for it! My favorite so far is the Panang curry, ginger fish, beef spring rolls! We will definitely come back yo this place! Also the watermelon juice is the bomb!!!

Is it possible to give zero stars? Spend your money somewhere else.

Chef Guy Smith is a creep and groped someone in our party while we were having dinner.

AVOID AVOID AVOID

Fantastic experience! Every Wednesday we go!

The food was fine and the wait staff was very kind. However, at the beginning of our meal, Chef Guy (the owner) came out, seemingly drunk, and proceeded to hit on my friends and I.

He mentioned that we were his girlfriends, told us he was in the market for a “hot blonde” and made several inappropriate comments, even referring to one of my friends as easy. He also kissed one of my friends on the forehead, kissed me near my mouth and grabbed my other friends foot(?) commenting on how much he liked her shoes.

Overall, his advances were unwanted, unprofessional and overshadowed anything positive I could say about the place. It’s also worth mentioning that as I looked through reviews, it does not appear that we were the first women to find his behavior uncomfortable while dining at this restaurant.

Amazing food. Everything tasted great.

Delicious Thai food. Spice levels were absolutely perfect because I LOVE spice. Will definitely be back.

Great food

My goodness, this is a fabulous Thai food restaurant in Kailua. Can it be? It is hidden, I have driven by there so often and drove right by. The garlic Seafood Medley is must try, stuffed chicken wings, the Patties were great.

Excellent! The servings are large, and the ingredients are carefully selected. I have been to Thailand and this is the most authentic Thai I’ve had in Hawaii

Best place to eat on Oʻahu! Chef Guy is amazing!

I like their papaya salad, but the Tom Yum is less authentic. I think they try to make it comfortable for the locals to eat. I’m a little disappointed that the soup isn’t as as spicy as I want it to be. I also asked for their chilly sauce, and it’s surprisingly not as hot. But the soup itself is good. I also ordered mango sticky rice and it was really good.

The food was absolutely horrible! It gave me and my family horrible stomach aches and we have diarrhea... It has been a month now. I don't know how much longer I can take! I couldn't make it to the toilet!! 😓😖😵
Gelato was amaze balls tho

Flavorful, healthy and delicious food with attentive service! Highly recommend this place for dinner.

Amazing food, meticulous presentation, and a quick tip - Go with Chef Guy's recommendations because your taste buds will be like, "Whoa! Wow! Wonderful!"

Very very personal customer service.

Spicy noodles are great. I also recommend the Bangkok fried rice. Nice restaurant. Friendly service.

Delicious flavors and fantastic service. Thank you!

We LOVE this place! Food and service are wonderful! Always a good time!

A small but intimate and nicely decorated dining room. They also offer outdoor seating. Servers are friendly and attentive. My curry dish was made to order. Food tasted delicious.

Just amazing. We were not that experienced with Thai food, but with the ladys recommendations we had the best meal we had in our time in Hawaii. Because of fish and nut allergies, we had to customize some meals quite a bit - it was no problem and we learned, that all meals are cooked fresh and individually. Even our vegetarians (me and my girlfriend) were amazed, since in American restaurants it isn't always easy to find something good without meat or fish. And if you don't find something on the card - Talk to them, they will find a way to make you happy.
Try the garlic tofu and the Thai ice tea with coconut milk!

If you are in Oahu, doesn't matter where - Go there. It is the best restaurant on the island.

Nice place but the chicken didn’t taste great. Also, pricey, over $120 for three entrees and an appetizer, bummed was really hoping it was going to be great.

It was amazing. Service was splendid, the Lady asked our favorites and experience, and made recommendations what to order and modified the dishes appropriately.

The food itself was top quality, cooked exactly right and tasty.

We did not expect to find such a nice dining experience there. Perfect, we left with a smile or two. :)

Really good. My favorite on the windward side

Chef Guy is the best! Always go with the special.

Stuffed chicken wings were delicious.

This is one of my favorite restaurants on Oahu! The food is consistently fantastic and the service is exceptional...

Customer service is awful, we had to wait for more than a hour just to get takeout. Then after we checked on our order 25mins it we placed they couldn't tell us how much longer it had. 40mins after they still didn't call we went back and was finally able to pick up🤨

Expensive, no flavor.

Great Thai food! We ordered the massaging curry with fish and the mung bean noodles with beef. Both excellent and recommended by Mina, one of the owners. They serve large portions so we have lunch for the next day too.

Food was outstanding! Service was excellent! The staff is very friendly and helpful. If you are looking for good Thai food you have to come here!

Most horrible food. My wife and I became extremely sick. it's been the 4 days.now. We are still experiencing horrible stomach cramps. Questioning their cleanliness!!! we are never ever going to this horrid place again!.
We don't believe they deserve any stars at all!!!
Unfortunately it won't allow us to post unless we do at least one.

Seriously the most delicious authentic tasty Thai food I have had in my life. I am vegan and the chef made the best curries and Thom kha soup. The Mung bean noodle with Garlic tofu is the best. Can’t wait to
Come back. Also the owner Mina is a delight.

We found a roach 🪳 in our coconut soup. Door dash delivered the food. We called the restaurant and complained. At first they told us they would only credit us the soup. They admitted, that exterminators had just come to the restaurant. They also admitted that the exterminator told him that exterminating could also bring out more roaches. Well as evidenced by the roach in our soup they came out. This restaurant should have closed down until the roach problem was completely under control. We had to fight for a complete refund.

The good:
Portions are large family style. Decoration is nice. Staff is friendly. I think the owners also work the restaurant. Only reason I'm giving it 3-stars is because it's family owned.

The bad:
[Note: I live next to Thai Town in LA, so my taste buds might be 'hypersensitive.']

> Pad Thai too sweet.
> Most of the other dishes we ordered was too salty (the intoxicated Chef might be the reason).
> The Crab Dip dish the Chef recommended was really salty... My group couldn't finish the fresh crab because it was too salty (what a waste).
> Coconut shrimp was 6 pieced. bottom of basket was padded with lettuce to appear full.

The fried rice and stuffed wings were the MVP of dinner. This place is ideal for other folks but not for me. I can see why most of its clients are non-Asian or non-Thai.

The server there is really nice but the food there tastes like nothing. Tastes like no seasoning, so bland. I originally from Thailand. I was born and raised there. when I told the owner about the food she started tell me about Mama Toy teach them how to cook it this way but I really don't believe that this is Mama Toy recipes. The way she explains to me how to cook Pad Thai (which I am Thai) and I know Pad Thai in this world have a lot of different way to make but that is definitely not how we... Thai people make them. Probably won't be back 😕 cause the price is so... Thank you for the nice service but not the food.

Fantastic food. Great menu and very friendly staff. Got to try the fried fish with garlic, Chao Phya Tai noodles, Chicken stir fry and home made coconut ice cream for dessert.

Not your average Thai restaurant... variety & quality beyond the norm.

All I can say is WOW. This Thai restaurant had so many choices and Mina (the owner and our waitress for the evening) was simply amazing! The portions was very generous and the food very favorable. We drove all the way from Wahiawa because we heard so many great things about this place and the reviews showed us as well. We are so beyond thankful for the experience and the tasty food and especially Mina!

Great food and service!

Honestly the thai food I grew up on. I've been coming here since keiki times. Owner momma toi puts a lot of love in her dishes and you'll definitely know wat I mean. P.s. get the thai sticky rice.

Expensive Good Food

chef's special tonight red snapper scallops was absolutely spectacular.

Dinner tonight was one of the most amazing meals we've had served in a restaurant in many many months spectacular and excellent say the least please come and try this place.

The best thai we've been to

OMG....Thai food is just a happy party of flavors all in one.

Very cozy atmosphere, polite staff that are accommodating and patient with questions. Food is excellent and prepared with fresh, high quality ingredients. Portions are generous for the price.

Makana's favorite place to eat!

If you come to Hawaii you have GOT to try this place. This restaurant has the best food! I love Thai food and the menu is both super creative and authentic. The portions are large and worth every dime. Plus, Mina is so nice and sweet! Her and the entire staff have the friendliness and most professional personalities. Just based off the amazing service alone I wish I could give this place 6 stars out of 5! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend this place!

We ate the stuffed chicken appetizer, coconut shrimp appetizer, salmon, lamb and yellow curry with chicken and sweet rice. All very delicious!

The food her is so delicious and the service is amazing. The coconut shrimp is the best we’ve ever had. Also, they have very good prices and a good atmosphere.

Tasty as heck.

Amazing food and services! All the food is great! Mina makes you feel like family and Chef Guy is fun.

Food was very tasty and service was excellent. Made you feel like you were old friends.

The best!

Excellent food and service

Food was overpriced and flavors not the same when new owners took over. Cashew nut chicken was dry and nuts old. Like leftovers reheated in the microwave. Stuffed chicken wings had more cabbage in it than chicken and chicken skin was tough, hard to chew. Disappointed since Mama Toy is no longer there! Not returning.

I ordered a garlic stake and it by it self was $20+ dollars. Like seriously it only had garlic and a sprinkle of lettuce that was all withered and copple od lettuce buts in there no seasoning nothing. The stakes at foodland is way cheeper there and i could of made 5 plates worth. This place ripped me off big time. Im a cook and this food they served was horrible. Negative 5 stars

Was good, but nobody gets five stars for feeding me on plastic covers..

If I could leave a negative star I would. The service was the only good thing. The rice dish I got was dry with giant tomatoes in it and huge slices of old green onions. Dish for me and my husband was bland. This is definitely not Thai food don’t even waste your money.

Place is good but it's over price. The food looks like they give a lot but it's not so much.

This place is top on our list very good food n staff is friendly n chief came out n talked with us!

This is a winner!! Unique Thai flavors, beautiful presentations, the chef, "Guy" came to our table & introduced his creations & his obvious love of the fresh & local finds. Mahalo, I'll be back!!!

Went for lunch... outside seating was average. I suggest eating inside without the noise and people looking at what you're eating through a window from next door Starbucks.

Great thai restaurant. Food is delicious. Service is friendly and personalized. The restaurant is tucked behind the Starbucks at the corner of the shopping complex and is a little difficult to spot from the parking area. But you won't be disappointed with the food and service at this restaurant.

Mina is the best! So sweet she made the whole experience utterly amazing.

Great food. Great service.

Although the friends we went with love this restaurant, their style of cooking is not to my taste.
The spring rolls were great!
The cashew chicken was ok, but the dark meat tasted odd, and the beef in the pad thai tasted odd.
I won't go there again.

Slow service. But food was delicious

Best food, best service, best everything

We had a good dinner. Great appetizers fried spring rolls and chicken satay. Main dish was fine. What colored my experience was a bright green gecko crawling up my leg ... twice. I know they do a lot of good, but I'm not a fan.

Outstanding and friendly service. The food was delicious! I will definitely come back!!

Please! Do yourself a favor and eat here

Friendly Service from the busser, server constantly tried to upsell us like we were at a used car lot. FOOD IS TERRIBLE AND OVERPRICED. Would not recommend. Oh and this is in Hawaii and your view from you outside table is either your car or people drinking coffee at starbucks. This is AMERICA's TOP RESTAURANTS TO NEVER GO TO.

Chao Phya Thai is a hidden gem. Wonderful lace to eat and enjoy an evening.

This was the most amazing thai food I have ever had in my entire life. The experience was like no other. They genuinely put so much love into everything about this Restaurant. I will be back. This is my favorite place on island by far

Food was fine, typical Thai. But $19 for curry and rice isn't included? That seems pretty steep. We ordered from bite squad and were disappointed we didn't get any rice because it didn't specifically say it wasn't included. Won't order from here again.

Had the panang chicken, it was pretty bland and watery, I would try something else. I went at 6pm on a Friday and the entire restaurant was empty. There was around 8 specials sitting on a table overwhelming you as soon as you walked in the door. The restaurant had very strange decor and the elevator music made it an even more awkward experience. Linen tablecloths but paper napkins that stick to your fingers if you are eating sticky rice. I was disappointed but I will give it another shot in the future.

Amazing place, try the turmeric noodles with the curry trust me.

Like going to see family or an old friend. As it is stated over and over, the service is 5 star.

And like the service, the food is equally wonderful and priced very well. Portions are generous and you will leave feeling not only full, but happy as well.

Was hungry for Pad Thai ... what I had was "a twist of thai" which is their moto. Our meals were all custom made. Mine was a "hot" cashue vegetable chicken pad thai of sorts ... many ingredients but best thing wasand each bite was a wholly diferent taste ... my taste buds never experienced such pleasure! Environment was good, presentation excellent, staff was wonderful.... The only negitive was "Hot", was not even mild in Thai I've had; HOWEVER, in this case I was glad it wasn't hot as it would have taken away from the taste. SO If you like it hot, mention how hot OR trust the chef and you won't be disappointed!

Loved the place great experience all around!!

I stopped in on a recent rainy evening in Kaneohe, in this little gem of a restaurant tucked away within the Windward Shopping Center. Sure glad I did! I tried the spring rolls and the namesake noodles (Chao Phya Thai noodles).

The restaurant wasn't busy, so I can imagine that it might take longer when it is, but my appetizer was served within 7-8 minutes, and my entree arrived before the appetizer was half done.

The restaurant was decorated for the holiday season and it made the room even nicer. Dark red tablecloths adorn all the tables and attractive wicker chairs were well-padded and comfortable. There was also an outdoor seating area, but with the showery night, I chose the main room.

I recommend this restuarant to all my friends and family, and everyone else as well. The only reason I didn't give a five star is because this is my first (but definitely not last) visit and I only tried one appetizer and one entree. But I'll be back to try again, and if all goes as well as tonight and tastes as good, I'll be raising it to five stars!

Customer service here will have you feeling VIP. They have amazing creations a little slow in the kitchen but that's because they make everything by order so it's nice to know that you consistently get fresh piping hot items. The only reason I gave a 4 and not a five is because the portion on some items is light in comparison of the price on my opinion however the flavors pack a punch the spice is heavy which I absolutely love but if you're sensitive to heat I suggest mild my favorite part is once you come here they remember you even if it's a month later to me that's impressive. Also the sambal (chili garlic) sauce is soo yummy but when you ask for a side if you enjoy spice trust me request for 2 sides as it's a tiny dish. My pictures are the beef salad and eggplant tofu which they let me change to a garlic sauce vs oyster sauce without hassle or charge but the customer service alone justifies the cost expect avg 14-16 per dish

Delicious Food
Generous Portions
n, excellent atmosphere with amazing service
Recommend to Er'yone!!
One of my daughter's n my favorites!!
😍

The food is way beyond the word “delicious”. Mina the host is amazing and welcoming. And guess what the place has got scenic views. Will definitely visit again!

Rather delish!

This place is a wonderful hole in the wall! Great flavors, Great service, and Great prices! New dishes and old favs combined!

Best Thai food on island, hands down. The flavor is spot on, the choices are plentiful and the family service is top shelf.

Food was delicious, space was clean, the owner was very passionate about the menu selection & made great recommendations!

Chef Guy makes the best thai food on windward side. Today was fried oysters fresh from the ocean. Delicious! Will go back!

My favorite and I always enjoy the food it's yummy and the service is great

We love coming here for a casual dinner or a special occasion. The food is fresh and local and hand selected by the chef. He comes out to visit with the clients and since he knows us gives a personal touch to our meal. We have never left hungry or disappointed. We recently celebrated my husbands birthday and he said his meal was the best he ever had. It is delicious and beautifully presented. The staff is very attentive and generous. We love this restaurant!

The food taste good, I’ve dined in once and carry out once. First time I got pad Thai and Satay it was good and the service was as well but overall just average. The service was very friendly though. Second time carry out was a little less desirable, the red curry was really thin almost more like soup than Thai red curry I’m used to. Also I thought it was odd that I got it home and there was no rice. I had to make rice which kinda defeated the purpose of ordering out. I don’t think I have been to a Thai restaurant and ordered a dish like curry that either didn’t come with rice or they at least would tell you to order it separate. Overall it’s ok but better places on the island. In a pinch it works.

Delicious. Super friendly staff, and chef. WE went twice in a row. Loved it.

Thai Food is always exquisite here. Great service, friendly staff. Tried three flavors of ice cream tonight. My favorite Coconut, Galangal with cinnamon and Thai iced tea ice cream. Some ono.

The restaurant is obscure. It is tucked next to Starbucks at the Windward Shopping Center. The food is awesome. It has great flavors and can be spicy. Be prepared to drink water to combat the wonderfully tasting Thai food. Service started a little slow but the staff more than made up for it. The restaurant is a winner. Great experience for this gem in Kaneohe.

Curry might as well be Indian curry, totally generic. Not worth the money. Can't speak for the rest of the menu, but the yellow curry is severely lacking.

Food was good and so was the service. Price to high for what you get

Not a Thai food kinda guy but the food is good. Went with people who love Thai food and they raved so take that for what it's worth.

AMAZING experience at this restaurant. The food was spectacular and the service was great. Chef Guy made a special visit to our table to deliver a dessert made just for us!

Great food...the Chef came out and greeted us.

Good food and good service.

I stopped in today while on a business trip and was very pleasantly surprised. This is not typical Thai food...it is excellent and fresh. I had the turmeric infused mung bean noodles with loads of fresh vegetables and perfectly cooked tofu. They also had an outstanding mango cheescake mousse for dessert that is not to be missed!

This restaurant has the most welcoming environment on the island. The only thing that is better then the hospitality is the food! The will come out and explain about what you ordered and how it was prepared and show you the fish he used. He will explain how he is adamant on only using the freshest ingredients from the islands. The hostess will be there for anything you need and make you feel like family but not overwhelming.
If you like athletic Thai food or want to eat something done right you can’t miss out on this experience.

Tasty food, generous quality, good variety of menu choices, and very friendly service!

The food was bland I was not satisfied at all. I can honestly say I was very dissapointed. My family and I will never eat there again.👎👎👎

Everything's fresh and delicious. The Best spot in Kaneohe. Shout out to Chef Guy!!!

Good good

Excellent food, both myself and wife loved it and would recommend to others. The shrimp and pineapple red curry dish was GREAT!

Never had Thai food, and our server made it so easy. Wow. Some of the best food I've had, and amazing customer service!! I'll be back!

Yummy!!!

The employees are kind and social to people who get there irrespective of one’s background

Amazing service and outstanding food. I wish I could bottle the Resturant up and take it back to Utah.

I will start off this review by stating that although I eat out 5 or 6 night a week, I am not a Thai food aficionado. I do love good food and good service and I got both here from Chef Guy and Chef Paul at Chao Phyu Thai Restaurant in the Windward City Shopping Mall. With that said, the food at Chao Phyu Thai Restaurant is AMAZING! The newly redecorated place is very clean and comfortable for a single, a couple or a large party. The walls and decorations in the place make you feel like you are invited to the Chefs house for a personal meal.
I came in on a weekday for a business lunch and was greeted by Chef Guy and he sat with us and took the time to talk story and get to know us. He suggested a few menu items and set us up with some drinks. This was a business casual lunch, so we only had tea and water, however they do allow BYOB and encourage you to bring your own wine or a cooler for the gang.
We started off with the red curry soup and a double order of Thai Crispy Spring Rolls. Next up was a generous platter of Chicken Pad Thai Then came the main course of Seared Scallops on a bed of Indian noodles cooked to perfection. Along with that is the imported King Salmon; we ordered the salmon to share which came with a generous side salad and served on top of a bed of couscous so tender and buttery. This fish just falls into your mouth and is so delicious. Also, in the main course was the giant sautéed clams in a curry soup broth. My favorite was the Scallops, and I recommend this place!!
Most entrees are served with a fresh salad, and generally are loaded down with vegetables. The portions are huge, and everything is made fresh to order. What sets them apart is the brilliant balancing of flavors. Sweet, acid, heat, sours, bitter and fragrant aromatics... nothing too 'spicy'... take for example the pad Thai I am used to pad Thai that is coated in some slippery sweet peanut sauce... here the peanuts are served on the side (delicious) and the flavors of the pad Thai without the peanut sauce is simply irresistible.
This restaurant is in the Windward City Shopping Mall, next to Starbucks and facing Kamehameha Hwy in Kaneohe and is easy to see from a moving car. Pop by for a quick visit, look at the menu and pictures on the walls, then order the best Thai Meal you have had in Hawaii.

Upscale Thai food. The chai tea ice cream and coconut ice cream is to die for!

Good food. Had the stuffed wings and green curry.

Very good Thai Restaurant for Thai food and they also have at night high end of food like lamb shank etc.

To my supprice. Lot of customers had rate this restaurant 3-4 stars. I thing CA agree is the staffs otherwise. This is the worst Thai food I ever ate. My Pat Thai so terrible, it a cross between Chinese Chowfun and. It so soggy and supper sweet I thought I ate a desert. My wife order the coconut soup. The soup base suppose to be coconut milk. Instead they used some of cream. She ate a bit and hat the remaining take home. On way home we had to rush to the test room, because both of us had an upset stomach and diarrhea. Few out later at we have the remaining soup for our dinner. Once again diarrhea. Don't get me wrong.we are Asian we know the food. But this one I don't know what to call it. You can have a better Thai food some place else so it won't disgrace authentic Thai food

Best food and service on the island!
