Showed up not knowing if there would be decent vegan options and was surprised to find a simple fried tofu meal for around 8$. It was delicious, I don’t eat out much because of how often i’m disappointed but i’ll definitely be coming back to this place!

Diner Review №8

Always fresh and cooked to order! Generous serving sizes and I love they always include a free spring roll with the Pad Thai.

Diner Review №9

One of our favorite Thai restaurants.

Diner Review №10

Diner Review №11

Probably the best lunch special I have ever had. Just passing through, i wish i had this in my home town.

Diner Review №12

2rd time to eat at this place. Still the best Thai restaurant in area. Food are delicious and fresh.

Diner Review №13

All dishes tasted same and same mediocre quality. We were seated at 9:30 pm and food came in around 9:45 and was asked to leave the restaurant at 10pm since they had to close. Owner , cook is the husband i suspect and the only other person working is the lady possibly wife .

How can anyone make thai tea bad ? these folks know how !!

I would not recommend this restaurant for a togo either

Diner Review №14

The bestttttt place for a hearty lunch out, came here on a rough day emotionally and had that turned around immediately upon entering. The decor is homey and sleek, the portions were large, and the restaurant smelled so delicious. Our hostess was an absolute delight, and the food and drinks were out quickly with no compromise in portion size or depth of flavor. The thai tea here tastes like a milk-dipped cookie, the calamari was chewy and crispy, the noodles were springy, and although I didn't order the pad thai myself, I watched another patron recieve the largest mountain of deliciousness I've ever seen. 1000/10, the only thing that disappoints me is living on the other side of the country, but this place will definitely be a future stop on any drivea through the area and I'd recommend anyone visiting to make sure they swing through too!

Diner Review №15

One of the best restaurants I've been to! The staff was nice and made sure my drink was full. It was small, and overall a nice little restaurant. The portions were large and you get alot of food for your money!

Diner Review №16

This place was amazing. Such great flavor! The crab fried rice may be the best fried rice I have tasted in my life. I personally got the red curry with tofu and spice level 10. Absolutely delicious. Will come back again!

Diner Review №17

We walked in at the closing time. Still they were ready to serve us with takeout. Thanks for being nice.

Thai iced tea was probably my favorite. The quality of food was really good, the herbs were fresh and flavorful. Everything was seasoned well. I appreciated that they have Larb on the menu, I've been looking to try it for some time now.

Diner Review №20

I had the lunch special. Wish the curry was lil thicker but it was still good. Thats a lot of food for only $10.99. My friends got their food and way into their meal before i got mine. Kinda ackward. Other than that the staff was nice. Will definitely return for more of the lunch special. I got the fried rice, chicken curry, vegetable spring roll, and garlic beef stir fry

Diner Review №21

Diner Review №23

Best Thai food in the OKC area, hands down. And at reasonable prices, too. Consistent quality and service between the Norman and Moore restaurants that we've been to.

Diner Review №24

Diner Review №25

Excellent Pad Thai

Diner Review №26

Love this place

Diner Review №27

Waitress was great and food is delicious.

Diner Review №28

Hubby and I ate here for lunch. We both ordered the lunch special. I had the Pad Thai/Stir fry Garlic pork and Massaman curry chicken special. The pad Thai was bittersweet, so a mild balance of the flavors was created. The Garlic pork had a nice balance of meat and veggies. The massaman curry chicken was slightly on the spicy side, but I loved the mix of white and sweet potatoes in this dish. The egg roll was crispy, but I would have preferred it to be just a tad bit warmer and not room temp. Overall, the experience was pleasant and the service was excellent.

Diner Review №29

People were so nice, I got the fried shrimp and my family got spring rolls and a coconut chicken soup and they were all SO delicious the sweet and sour sauce was impeccable. Smelled nice and bathrooms were very clean and comfortable. The waitress was very kind and took care of us very well. Also very cheap for delicious and authentic food. Only costed $34 for 4 appetizers. 5/5 would recommend, I will come again soon!

Diner Review №34

Great food. Good service.

Diner Review №35

Always delicious. Friendly staff and great food! I would highly recommend this place! They allow you to customize the ingredients and pick your spice level. I recommend the soy sauce noodles, garlic stir fry, and evil jungle chicken curry!

Diner Review №36

Absolutley the best Thai food in Norman Oklahoma. Restaurant is small, nice, comfortable and inviting. The staff is extremely pleasant and the service is fast. Please visit and try thier Pad See-eew or soy noodle it is amazing.

Diner Review №37

Buyer Beware!!!

You're going to get a LOT of food! I got the Evil Jungle Curry and the Green Curry Fried Rice. I got the EJC with a spice level of 3 and it was just the right amount of spice (for me) before it gets to be too much. It was so delicious. The Green Curry Fried Rice was probably the best fried rice I've ever had if not close to it! I got mine with chicken and man is it good! I highly recommend this restaurant; the food is amazing and if you have leftovers, or a break between eating, the flavors get even better. Phenomenal!

Diner Review №38

Left the AMC theater and decided to try it. We ordered for three and talk about reasonable ! What a wonderful surprise. It’s authentic Thai food that can’t be beat. 5 chopsticks straight up. Go before or after the movie for a unique palate celebration. Bravo!

Diner Review №60

Nice place with great food. I got the lunch special with ice tea. Waitress was attentive and helpful. Food came out piping hot and smelled delicious. Flavors on all items were were excellent. Very much enjoyed the decor and environment while eating here. 👍

Diner Review №61

A wonderful small Thai restaurant, with great service as well as food quality.

Diner Review №62

If you are looking for a quiet place to enjoy your meal, then this is for you. But I am not very impressed with their dishes. We tried fried calamari, fish cakes, fried tofu, spicy basil noodles and pad thai. I think spicy basil noodle was the still much better than other things we tried. Calamari wasn't fresh, tofu was ok, fish cakes were ok and pad thai was way too sweet.

Diner Review №63

Food is great and service! Highly recommend this place ❤️

Diner Review №64

Food here can be good, you have to direct them how to cook it.

Diner Review №65

Delicious dishes with good portions, excellent service, clean and beautiful place- we were delighted to find this place. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №66

I'm not local but picked to get dinner here. I am real happy with my choice. the spring rolls were fresh and crunchy. peanut sauce was good as well and paired great with them.

noodles were plentiful for the price. Taste was on point and level 4 spicy was just right. if I was local I'd definitely come back

Diner Review №70

Wonderful food and atmosphere. Very clean, including bathroom.

Diner Review №71

Food and price was really good,. Not quite hole in the wall level but still really good. Service was 11/10, one guy managing the whole floor and he didn't miss a beat. Recommend.

Diner Review №72

Panang 8 replaced Chada Thai. The menu is a bit different with a wider range of regions. The service is still excellent and the food wonderful. The prices are average and the interior modest but clean. Try them out. You will not be disappointed.

Fast, attentive service, and well presented dishes with unique flavors.

Diner Review №76

Amazing and flavorful cuisine. First time here, and I am glad I came!

Diner Review №77

Delicious food!

Diner Review №78

Ordered via UberEATS, bought two BOGO dishes (BOGO WAS EVEN IN THE TITLE) and only got one of each. Called to ask the restaurant where the rest of the food is and I'm told I have to order two bogos, and be charged for each one, to get two orders.
That's not what a bogo is.
Not requesting a refund because we got what we ordered, which apparently translates out to "A SCAM"

Diner Review №79

Absolutely love the food! Usually get the Chicken Massaman Curry and some potstckers, my favorite!

Location is always clean, staff is always friendly, and the food is delicious!

Diner Review №80

I’m so sad Chanda Thai is gone. If it had to leave then I am happy that Panang is what replaced them. I’ve been waiting forever for Panang to come to Norman and it didn’t disappoint. The papaya salad was great (just keep in mind that even a level 2 is really spicy!) and Friday’s lunch menu items were awesome.

The prices are on point with the amount of food you get. Not like some other Thai places that charge a lot and you get half of what is reasonable for the price.

As far as a former review from someone re: it not being up to the standard of other Panang locations, it could have been because they had just opened and were training because now they are up to speed and it’s the same great quality of the other locations throughout the metro.

So glad you are in Norman now Panang 8!

Diner Review №81

Was visiting from out of town and loved the Spicy Basil Fried Rice. Nice atmosphere, would definitely eat here again.

Diner Review №82

For lunch, you choose 4 items. The servings are large and delicious. Good luck finishing it all. Friendly staff.

Diner Review №83

This location is not up to the same standard of other Panang locations. The cooks there need training from the cooks at the Moore or SW 89th and Penn location. Hope they get better because this restaurant is nearer to where I live.

Diner Review №84

So delicious . I love Massaman Curry with chicken
