Consistently great gțyttttfood that’s quick and always great service even when they’re busy. And with prices this good they’ve become one of my go-to’s for take out.

Diner Review №2

This place has the best chicken pad Thai I have ever had !!! 10/10

Diner Review №3

The ingredients were not fresh

Diner Review №4

I met up with a friend to catch up on a cold day so it was obviously time to order pho. My first time here, I was impressed with the large menu and variety of Asian cuisines offered in this fun and casual spot. They seem to do a large takeout business but have some tables to sit inside and eat as well. The pho was hot and delicious and had plenty of big shrimp that were perfectly cooked. Service was friendly and quick and prices were very reasonable. I am excited to go back and try more.

Diner Review №5

The food was 5 stars! They lose 1 star overall because it felt a bit pricey relative to portion sizes when compared to a lot of other Asian take out spots.

Diner Review №6

The food was AMAZING and the inside was super nice and clean definitely can be a cool place to get food and hangout! But omg the food was so good I got the crab Rangoon’s and the sushi wrap definitely did not disappoint.

Diner Review №7

Not sure if this place has new staff or what happened but completely down hill. 40 minutes for pad thai that was flavorless and had no spice and two sushi rolls. Water was brought out to us five minutes before we got up and left. Overall experience was very disappointing.

Diner Review №9

Worst money spent. Long wait lines. Food doesn’t taste good at all. Got spring shrimp rolls and they had one shrimp combined. We ordered two orders and all 4 rolls came with one to zero shrimp. I would recommend or come again.

Diner Review №10

Honestly a little disappointed. I read all the great reviews and ordered this for delivery through DoorDash. I didn’t really like the chicken pad Thai that much. I may give this place another try and have something different but I’ve had better 🤷🏼‍♀️

Diner Review №11

Good stuff, the woman at the counter is very nice when I swapped my order since I couldn’t decide very quickly. I got the Traditional Burmese Chicken Curry and my nana got the Shrimp Pad Thai at a 3 (for spice) and it was delicious and very tasty. The chicken tasted as if it was only made to be eaten with the curry at all times, I would eat it every single day if I could. I can’t really speak on the Shrimp Pad Thai as I can’t handle spice of any kind, but my nana said the spice was delicious with the noodles.

Diner Review №12

Curry beef. 4 pieces of dry beef. No vegetables.

Diner Review №13

Prices are good.
Atmosphere is good.
Portion sizes are good.
And the food is great 👍

I like that you can upgrade the spice level on request too. The hot packs a great kick.

Diner Review №14

The fried spring rolls, steamed dumplings, and volcano rolls were great! A little disappointed by the sesame chicken. The chicken was cooked perfectly but the sauce was so sugary and thick it wasn’t very appetizing.

Diner Review №15

Diner Review №16

This is hands down the best Thai food you can get in Buffalo and the two people that run it a husband and wife that are the most sweetest couple I ever met

Diner Review №17

I ordered the vegetable soup...ummmmm not as yummy as soup I get from over on boardway, but it was very hot.The brooth as to get better.

Diner Review №18

I ordered Uber Eats from Street Asian Food and OMG! So fresh, so much flavor! Did not expect this at all! Traditional Burmese chicken curry is unbelievable!

Diner Review №19

Ate at the New Lancaster location. Had Chicken Pad Thai and 2 days later had the Burmese Flat noodles. Both dishes were unbelievably Tasty!! So glad to have them down the street from work... I ordered both dishes Hot spice level and they did not disappoint.. YUM!!

Diner Review №20

Love the food here!! Really fast and good service. Love the tofu, mango sticky rice and the basil rice is a good bit greasy imo. I suggest this place! Great for vegans also.

Diner Review №21

The seafood medley was definitely not worth $20, it was half chicken and beef. But my sushi and the honey sesame chicken were good. Id eat here again

Diner Review №22

Diner Review №23

I had salmon roll and fried rice with seafood protein here and both exceeded my expectations.
it's not the best place, but it absolutely is worth the try. (not many sushi options)

Diner Review №24

Food is always good!

Diner Review №25

Excellent!

Diner Review №26

Went in on a whim and was pleasantly surprised and completely satisfied🤌🏾🤌🏾

Diner Review №27

They give me salty soup really disappointed.

Diner Review №28

Love this place! Super reasonable prices and the food is excellent!!

Diner Review №29

food is very fresh

Diner Review №30

May seem like a small little shop but their food packs SOOO MUCH flavor! Wow. Also so reasonably priced!!! Everything you could want. This is my new favorite Thai place in Bufalo.

Diner Review №31

Great take out, not much of a dining room, always reliable.

Diner Review №32

Food was alright. I don't think I'll go again.

Diner Review №34

在加拿大过关到水牛城已经很晚了,很多餐厅都不允许堂食了,这家老板服务态度很好,知道我们是游客,特意让我们能够堂食,吃到了正宗的泰国菜

Diner Review №35

Lai is very friendly, he let us stay late to finish the food! The food is amazingly good and authentic!

Diner Review №36

Diner Review №37

Fantastic fresh food. Sweet service.

Diner Review №38

Diner Review №39

Ordered from Door Dash, so in-person food may be different. I got the General Tso’s chicken, it wasn’t like any I’ve ever had before & not really in a good way. It looked to have been drenched in red food dye but it wasn’t spicy or pleasantly flavored at all. It was bland, the chicken was poorly cooked, and the broccoli was awkwardly cooked where the stems were crunchy and the tops were mushy. Not the worst food Ive ever had but not far from it lol.

Diner Review №40

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

food is just delicious i can say nice joint

Diner Review №43

Very fast service, but I ordered the general Tso's chicken and can say that it was nothing like what i expected, Got a couple of pieces of broccoli that were overcooked and slimy, and the chicken itself instead of being made in a spicy citrus glaze, it was saturated in that fake red tomato color they use for dyeing the roast pork red. , all in all, i regret spending the 14$ it cost for the dish.

Diner Review №44

If 10 stars were a thing I would put 12. We ordered a bunch of food off doordash and I wrote a note that my boyfriend has a severe seafood allergy and the restaurant called us to make sure certain things could be okay in the food. THANK YOU for caring about your customers ❤️ we are grateful.

Diner Review №45

Portions are too small. It was too expensive. There is not enough sauce on chicken.

Diner Review №46

Diner Review №47

Diner Review №48

Best fresh spring roll in town. But I've never had anything I don't enjoy, soups are good, and so is the sushi

Diner Review №49

The seafood melody & the fried spring chicken rolls was absolutely delicious!!

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

Wonderfully surprised by the deliciousness and freshness of the steamed veggie dumplings, rainbow roll, veggie summer (or spring, the one not deep fried) roll, and eel avocado roll. Not sure about atmosphere/service since we order via DoorDash. Look forward to trying again!

Diner Review №52

Stopped in for lunch. You order at the counter but there is a few tables for dine in, ordered the pad kee mow. I only waited a few minutes for my food to come out and it was soooo good. Highly recommend

Diner Review №53

Diner Review №54

Not authentic and overly salty

Diner Review №55

Heard about Thai food but never had any. Order Beef Pad Thai. Interesting combination of flavors. Very delicious.

Diner Review №56

Love the place and ppl

Diner Review №57

Was a great Asian restaurant and I really recommend going. They have top tier chicken dumplings and if you are looking for top tier food and service then go to street Asian food.

Diner Review №58

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

Friendly staff and delicious food. Plenty of options to choose from. Highly recommend the panang curry and sushi wrap. Have also ordered take out and time estimate was spot on!

Diner Review №61

Delicious food and great prices! The food is so good, you can't help but do a little dance while eating

Diner Review №62

The food here is delicious, and the staff are super friendly! Everything we’ve tried here has been amazing! Great place to sit down or get to go on Elmwood!

Diner Review №63

Good food, spot on flavor. Great service. Small area to dine in. Parking can be an issue. Will be back to eat again. 😋

Diner Review №64

Food was very delicious 🤤 especially Vietnamese pho soup was very yummy. Must try !!!!
It's a great place for vegetarians & vegan..

Diner Review №65

Great spot for a bite to eat! Very reasonable prices, fast and friendly service, and tasty food. 2 sushi rolls, samosas, and Kung pao chicken for around $35.

Diner Review №66

People are so nice there.

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №68

Delicious! We had the spring rolls/fresh rolls, tea leaf salad, and the Burmese egg curry. Everything tasted so fresh and yummy! We will definitely be back to try other things!

Diner Review №69

Food was very tasty. Got chicken instead of pork for the pad Thai, even though they got it right on the bill.

The Thai green curry was delicious and fragrant. Sushi was fresh and tasty, some rolls were very plain. We wish the portions were a tad bigger, still satisfied!

Diner Review №70

Diner Review №71

Great food and consistently great service. If you're looking for a superb, hole in the wall dining experience with a stacked but affordable menu you'd have a hard time beating this place, especially on Elmwood. The Burmese chicken curry is outstanding!

Diner Review №72

Diner Review №73

Slightly elevated Asian food. Better than most take-out joints. However smaller portions and higher cost. Solid flavors nonetheless.

Diner Review №74

The name and location may look unassuming, but do not be fooled. This is a high quality restaurant with amazing food and service. You get a lot of good food for a great price and it’s delicious and authentic. We were very impressed and will be back for more yummy Thai and Burmese food. Don’t skip the desserts! They are incredible!

Diner Review №75

Diner Review №76

The female owner is so kind. The food is amazing.

Diner Review №77

Delicious food, whatever you order.

Diner Review №78

The food was awesome. Some of the best tasting Thai food I've had in a long time and the girl behind the counter was nice and accommodating, but the portions were disappointing, if there was more food I'd have given this place 5 stars.

Diner Review №79

Food is consistently delicious. Service is quick. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu here.

Diner Review №81

Diner Review №82

Tried their Street Asian Food Melody today and was like WOW!! Absolutely delicious! My first time ordering from them-so impressed. Seems as though you can taste a new flavor with each bite. If you were on the fence about trying them out..don't be! I highly recommend them!!

Diner Review №83

First time here. Loved the food, great prices.

Diner Review №84

Great food and great service!

Diner Review №85

This is the best Asian food in town I would recommend

Diner Review №86

Absolutely amazing food, so much flavor in everything they serve. From samosa to pad Thai and the pho, everything was absolutely delicious. Even the Sushi here is really good and staff is very nice.

Diner Review №87

Its fast, it's delicious, it's good prices for the amount of food they serve. Haven't had a dish I don't like (have not tried sushi)

Diner Review №88

Food is great, portions are hilarious.

Diner Review №89

Really fantastic food and really fantastic and kind staff. Perfect portions, great for vegans.

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

Took my best friend here for her birthday dinner on October 5th. The food was beyond amazing, a hidden gem for delicious Asian cuisine. Everything from curries, to pho, and sushi. Unreal, definitely one of the best in town!

Diner Review №92

Thought it was weird the backstaff was so interested in my appearance, constant updates on my activites and commenting. The singing overpowered the tv, making dining in uncomfortable. The meal, which was very chewy, and bland.. seemed like a frozen isle grocery run.

Diner Review №93

Save yourself time and money order from any other regular Chinese restaurant. This place is disappointingly underwhelming.

Diner Review №94

Food is really Good but it's a little pricey.

Diner Review №95

Diner Review №96

Exactly what it says it is, and that's fantastic. I love Asian Street Food. Best Pad Thai in the city hands down

Diner Review №97

We enjoyed the quality and inventiveness of some options.

Diner Review №98

Fantastic.

Diner Review №99

The chicken dumping are amazing and so wS my rice bowl

Diner Review №100

Everything I've tried has been incredible! Absolutely recommend.

Diner Review №101

Diner Review №102

Was going to a restaurant further down the street that turned out to be closed. So decided to try Street Asian Food instead. What a great find out of the blue. Delicious Burmese Chicken Curry. Definitely the highlight of a Buffalo shopping trip. It's not a fancy restaurant (more of a cafe), but the food is what makes this place a gem.

Diner Review №103

Food was incredible. Staff was very friendly.

Diner Review №104

Rice was a bit overcooked
Had the honey sesame chicken also a bit overcooked
Veggies samosas were very good!
Overall flavors were good, nothing spectacular though. Also they don't have lunch specials.

Diner Review №105

Pad Thai, spring rolls and black rice mango dessert- all perfect!

Diner Review №106

Food is always super tasty, great vegan options, inside of the restaurant isn't always the most comfortable but food is good

Diner Review №107

Gotten takeout several times. The green curry is soooo gooood! Also had Pad Se Ew and samosas — both great. They are very nice as well. Good go to for Thai and Burmese takeout.

Diner Review №108

Food was perfect and it was nice and quiet. Lovely lady who works there served us our food. Every bite was better than the last. 10/10 recommend food looked just as good as it tasted and it was fairly fast.

Diner Review №109

Diner Review №110

Diner Review №111

Diner Review №112

Terribly overcooked honey sesame chicken. Undercooked broccoli. Do not order any desserts whatsoever.

Diner Review №113

Diner Review №114

Diner Review №115

Really friendly staff, Good seating area. TV off and not blaring so you can actually have a conversation. 3 stars because the prices on both the menu sign as well as the paper menu are very inaccurate. Menu states 6 dollars for 2 spring eggrolls. It is now 7.50. (learned after ordering). Nice staff member stated it's accurate online. But they need to change this. Spring rolls were bland. They could use some cilantro. I will give this place another try though. I want them to succeed.

Diner Review №116

Diner Review №117

Diner Review №118

Great veg and non veg options! The tom yum soup and Burmese Flat Noodles were delicious! I like that they have some indoor seating with real dishware

Diner Review №128

I ordered from street Asian food two meals to see what they had to offer. One meal was the chicken Pho and the other was Pad Thai.

The pho was really great and came with a great broth that was housemade and I really enjoyed that. The pad Thai appeared so bone dry (see pic) that I wasn't sure what to expect. For the price, it was definitely the smallest portion this meal I've ever received, compared to other local offerings. It tasted fine, but definitely did not look very appealing.

Overall, the meals were good, but I would have liked a bit more pad thai. Maybe when it's not to-go the portions are better.

Diner Review №129

Really fresh,made to order with a minimal wait. Not much of a dining area. But the food is FRESH and Delicious.

Always excellent!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Diner Review №136

Diner Review №137

consistent, delicious, reasonable pricing. excellent dishes across the whole menu. professional and friendly staff.

Diner Review №138

Friendly service, amazing quality food and in efficient time. If you’re ordering a curry and not used to heat ask for mild! Seriously delicious!!!! The mango black rice desert is phenomenal and I highly recommend. Sushi comes with 8 pieces (I ate one before I took the photo) and I took a photo of the desert after a bite as well.

Diner Review №139

So fresh!

Diner Review №140

Great place to try different Asian foods. IMO the best "General Tso Chicken" in Buffalo.

Diner Review №141

I really like chicken curry 🍛

Diner Review №142

I love this place! The food is always fresh, hot and delicious. They have some of the greatest people working here. The prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Street Asian Food to anyone who wants a delicious meal.

Diner Review №143

I love this place favorite Asian place to eat by far and they tai tea is the best.

Diner Review №144

Diner Review №145

Great food! Ordered for work lunch! We had the Red Curry (Tofu), Burmese flat noodles, pad thai, sticky rice. Everything tasted very delicious. Everyone at work loved it too! Win! Definitely will order again.

Diner Review №146

Get the black rice sushi. Get it and savor it because it’s seriously one of the best things I’ve had, ever. That and the tempura shrimp that comes with a nice little selection of vegetables, they’re awesome. Well worth the trip into the city and well worth the price.

Diner Review №147

Diner Review №148

Delicious, authentic and the owners are super nice!

Diner Review №149

Diner Review №150

Very tasty food and the woman at the counter was so nice!

Diner Review №151

Enjoyed my lunch from Street Asian food today. Black Rice sushi was unique and delicious and I would most definitely recommend it. Only 4 stars today due to an order mix up, and lack of option to add spice, as I would've enjoyed a little heat. Nonetheless the quality and quantity of food was to be noted, and I will not hesitate to order again!

Diner Review №152

delicious delicious delicious. got the pad kee mao and a tempura shrimp roll and both were outstanding!

Diner Review №153

Diner Review №154

Diner Review №155

I was very surprised at how good this food tasted and looked. Thank you A+. I'll be back.

Diner Review №156

Diner Review №160

Fast service... Food is good

Diner Review №161

My experience with this place is exclusively for to go lunch.

The food is consistently very good the sushi wraps are a tasty and unique item that I haven't seen offered anywhere else In the area.

Now Asian food is my favorite so I've eaten at many of the local spots many times and I will say that my one critique of this place and the reason I can't give it five stars is it's about 15 to 20% too expensive. For reference I might pick up a noodle or Curry dish for lunch which comes to between 12 and $15 depending on protein choice whereas other restaurants in the area will offer lunch specials that might include a main dish in addition to soup and or a spring roll. That being said Asian street food is still in my rotation as a regular lunch spot and I do recommend it

Diner Review №162

Well I mean In my experience it wasn’t really nice and sanitary in there... I mean I saw a rat run past me while I was ordering food and when I ordered food I had to wait an hour for my food😓😓

Diner Review №163

Lots of different dishes on the menu. Mango salad is yummy. Avocado & cucumber rolls with black rice is terrific. Nice pad thai. Friendly staff, a young couple, he cooks, she takes care of the guests; nice prices.
A pleasing mix of sushi, burmese, thai and chinese food.
Call ahead for pickup, order at the restaurant (very short wait), or have Door dash deliver to you. The sticky rice dessert is a winner.
Convenient location on Elmwood near Utica, next to Saigon Cafe. Street Parking. DON'T BLOCK THE BUS STOP.

My boyfriend and I have gotten take out here twice and both times we loved the food. I had the honey tofu with steamed rice, my boyfriend had the general Tsos chicken. We definitely added street Asian food into our rotation. I haven’t been inside or seen the inside. They have vegan options along with sushi which I’m dying to try.

Red curry and it was amazing, 5 stars.
Green and panjang curry 5 stars.

The Burmese chicken curry 1 star.

The pad thai 2 stars. It was okay but overall I didn't find it that enjoyable.

I had the pad see ew which was pretty good 3 stars.

I had the Thai Fried Rice, great mix of ingredients 3.5 stars. I drizzled red curry broth over it very good 4 stars.

Diner Review №177

The food we got from here was fantastic! Spicy, flavorful, and completely delicious! Particularly recommend the out-of-this-world crab rangoon, yaki udon, and crispy eggplant. Delicious!!

Diner Review №178

The restaurant is cute, the food is AMAZING and the two workers (owners?) were super polite.

Diner Review №184

Not impressed with the food and the establishment....got the Thai fried rice and barely had any chicken in it; it was overall a small portion; and in my opinion it was overpriced. I am only giving it two stars because the cashier was friendly.

Diner Review №194

Had the coconut shrimp roll & Thai basil fried rice (med was a lil spicy) but both were excellent.

Diner Review №195

Chicken curry was extremely over salted and really oily.

Diner Review №196

Great friendly quick service

Diner Review №197

Tasty soup, spring rolls were fresh, and the combination was surprisingly filling, which is great. Healthy lunch with a pinch of spice. Place seem clean, staff was nice, will visit again.
