Love the vegan friendly options here, I got a vegan pad thai and veggie egg rolls & it was so delicious, full of flavor. My girlfriend got the green curry with chicken and said it was the best green curry she's ever tried. What a hidden gem of a trailer. It was raining and 30 degrees outside and the cashier was super kind and even insisted on delivering my order to the window of my car in the parking lot! They said they were able to do several items on the menu vegan, so I will definitely be coming back regularly! Highly recommend the pricing was reasonable and they also have access to a bathroom that looks like it actually been kept up with. Really nice location and vibes ❤️

Had Gotji’s today, wish I had it sooner. It was absolutely delicious! Best Thai I’ve had in yrs. The Pad Thai with chicken and the Texas Curry . Would highly recommend. Found my new Hays go to place ! Did have the order delivered to Water2wine so I could not rate the atmosphere. The food was spicy and delicious:)

Diner Review №3

The best curry is typically on point. Tonight, it was a bit on the watery side. The tofu red curry was also a bit watery and salty. It’s like both were missing coconut milk or something.

Gotji’s is a solid food truck in Buda - tonight was just a bit off.

Diner Review №4

Excellent food. Got the pineapple fried rice with chicken and pork egg rolls. So so good! Fresh ingredients. Amazing service too!

Diner Review №5

Incredible service! Pork egg rolls were excellent. Also got the Red Curry and Pineapple Fried Rice. Will be back :)

Diner Review №6

For price, quantity, and quality, it's just okay. OG pad thai said to have crab meat, which it does not. For 17$ that's kinda steep for 4x U40 shrimp, and noodles only. Sauce was overpoweringly sweet, but maybe I just like the americanized version more. Would maybe do well with more fried shallots and some chili flakes or chili oil. Idk, but it needs something to balance out the sweet. Didn't finish my meal.

Diner Review №7

Diner Review №8

Excellent food and great service, the kids working this place are just so damn respectful and kindhearted it’s unreal.

Diner Review №9

A once-a-week staple in our house! Can't go wrong with the BBQ Clay Pot or Texas curry :) lots of meat!

Diner Review №10

Honestly the best I’ve had in a long time

Diner Review №11

Diner Review №12

The absolute best crab fried rice and chili garlic oil!

Diner Review №13

So much flavor! Very kind staff and amazing food. I had the crab fried rice this time and I added tobiko to it. It is so good and I recommend it to anyone who likes seafood.

Diner Review №14

Texas Curry dish is amazing. Took 10 minutes and the service was great!

Diner Review №15

I absolutely love the pad thai here. We happen to stop by once and guve it a try and we have not stopped craving and going back for the pad thai since then. I would recommend it to everyone and Gotji is a wonderful owner with a great customer service! Don't miss a chnace on trying it out!

Diner Review №16

This is by FAR the best Thai food I've ever had!!!! This food truck has ruined all other Thai foods for me❤️❤️❤️ the staff is amazing, kind, and incredibly inviting!!! Keep up the good work

Diner Review №17

“The Best Pad Thai” is the worst pad thai I have ever had. It was literally drowning in cheap sweet and sour, had no crab meat, radish, or other toppings. The worst was the sauce. I asked them to add more noodles or remake it and the absolute snarky staff refused and offered me to buy an additional dish. If you like real Thai food and nice people, don’t bother coming here.

Diner Review №18

Best Asian food in Buda FR

Diner Review №19

Located in a food truck park, this small place serves delicious fusion Thai cuisine. Great balance of spices of authentic Thai dishes. The Texas ( because of use of brisket ) red curry was a treat, and so is the yummy crab fried rice. A must try if you like crab- this fried rice has real pieces of crab meat and tobiko!!!! Beef larb - seems like has a bulgogi twist to it- still enjoyed it as you can still taste the toasted rice. The tom kha soup can use a little bit more flavor - missing something!
I will definitely be back to try other Thai dishes like pad Thai. Well recommended!!!

Diner Review №20

Stumbled upon this hidden gem! We tried “The Best Pad Thai” and it lived up to the name. Seriously some of the best tempura shrimp I’ve ever had. The batter and crisp were perfection. The flavors of the Pad Thai were seriously wonderful! We will definitely be back! Thanks for amazing food and a fun atmosphere.

Diner Review №21

I found this amazing new food trailer that has authentic Thai food. This morning when getting breakfast at Dave's Tacos I noticed a new food truck next to Dave's Tacos, it was closed so I asked Dave about the trailer. Dave said that they will open for lunch today for the first time in Austin. and highly recommended them. My wife and I came for lunch to try this new food trailer and OMG! this is the real deal. I ordered the GN8 Shrimp Southern Noodle and my wife had the GN7 Black Pepper Noodle. Hands down the best Thai food we have had in years! I really Highly recommend stopping by, you will not be disappointed.

Diner Review №22

Mind blowing flavors. One word - wow! 😂
They don’t hold back on real Thai spice just to appease the white mellow tastebuds .. so go there with some sense of adventure.

The food is remarkably tasty.

Diner Review №23

My boyfriend visited town and decided to try….. 100/10. The best Thai food I’ve ever had. The man in the truck was so kind and offered suggestions based on spice level and taste. All around I’m not sure it could have been a greater experience.

Diner Review №24

"The Best Pad Thai" lives up to its name. Super, super delicious. Staff is always friendly, and it's my favorite Thai food around. Highly recommended.

Diner Review №25

Diner Review №26

Always my go to place to eat at in Buda! The Best curry is delicious and full of flavor. Definitely recommend.

Diner Review №27

Great Thai Food! Owner always remembers me when I come back and I think that’s awesome.

Diner Review №28

Food truck, with foodtruck atmosphere, ordered for pickup, and it was good. Reasonable, and authentic. Would go back any time im in the neighborhood hankering for thai food

Diner Review №29

Loved the service and the food. It's always great when people genuinely ask how you are doing, see what you like and make recommendations. The food was delicious... I'll definitely be back!

Diner Review №30

Diner Review №31

Unless you are going to drive to Houston, you would be very hard-pressed to find Thai food on this level. This is one of Buda's best-kept secrets.

Diner Review №32

Crab fried rice, that’s all I have to say. It’s sooo good and you get a healthy portion. They also brought my food to my car since I had my dogs with me. The staff is very attentive and helpful. This is my biweekly treat!

Diner Review №33

The best curry ever! Homemade spring rolls, fried to perfection — not greasy. Crab fried rice to die for! Friendly service.

Diner Review №34

Super quick! The best pad Thai comes with a great value with little fish, eggs, crispy tempura shrimp, crab meat, and so much more with a super flavorful sauce and noodles that are to die for.

Definitely a must stop when I am in this area again!

Diner Review №35

Diner Review №36

Very delicious pad Thai and friendly service. If I can give feedback: more fresh vegetables like sprouts and green onion and more peanuts. None of these were noticeable on food which actually the key for pad Thai..

Diner Review №37

OMG!!!!! This might be some of the best Thai food that I have had in decades. Decided to try it on a whim and I am so happy that we did. Great portions for the price which will give you 2 to 3 meals out of one order. The food is so fresh and tastes amazing. Throughout the meal, we couldn’t stop commenting on how great the food was. Highly recommend.

Diner Review №38

This food is awesome in form San Antonio here for work. The atmosphere is nice food and service was great people were so friendly and food came out quick fresh ingredients quality food. Loving this pho sho got stop but here and try this place 10 out of 10

Diner Review №39

I've tried the street noodles and pad kee mao and both are amazing. I can't wait to go back and try something new! I highly recommend this food truck. Gotji, I'm rooting for you!

Followup, I've tried so many things off this menu and everything is delicious. You can't go wrong!

Diner Review №40

Diner Review №41

We love this food truck! My husband usually gets the pad Thai and he loves it. I’ve tried two different dishes and they have both been amazing!

You have to try this place if you haven’t. Quality food, amazing flavor, just amazing! ☺️

Diner Review №42

Best Thai & Curry in Buda for sure, maybe even in the Austin Metropolitan area. Owner is very kind and friendly. Everything I've ordered from here so far has been amazing. My favorite is the Texas Curry and The Best Pad Thai.

Diner Review №43

My boyfriend and I eat here frequently! The food is fantastic!! But the service is why Gotji’s is our favorite, everyone is always very kind!! I always get the street fried noodles, I’m not a big fan of spice and they’ve even taken the extra step to make a special sweeter sauce for my food without even being asked!!! We will continue coming here and showing our support!!! :D

Diner Review №44

The food was SO good. The staff was so friendly and food came quickly.

Diner Review №45

Diner Review №48

Delicious! Thanks for the dog treats for my fur babies!

Diner Review №49

Diner Review №50

Delicious!! Had the red curry, veg spring rolls, and Tom Kha soup. I'm a creature of habit - if I like something, I stick to it, so I've been driving to my go-to spot near downtown Austin. No more!! This is now my go-to spot. Will definitely be back.
10/15/23 UPDATE:
Holy deliciousness 🙌 I ordered the crab fried rice yesterday. Wow! Get it! I might go back for more today. Am I crazy?!? Lol. So GOOD! Also, something I noticed yesterday... the guy taking the orders is so dang friendly 😊 while I was waiting for my order, two women walked up to look at the menu. He opened his window and said hello. They barely acknowledged him, lol. I don't think they were trying to be rude, just different social norms, i guess. It just stood out to me... I thought, "He's so nice." Anyway, food is great. Service very friendly. Go here, go here now. What are you waiting for? Go!

Diner Review №51

My family and I have been coming here since they opened for business. The taste and flavors are authentic and delicious. The taste and quality have stayed consistent and did not decline over time. My favorite dish is the green curry. The customer service is always top notch. The staff is always very friendly. They are my go-to Thai food spot!

Diner Review №52

First timer here. This was some of the best Thai I have ever had. The eggrolls were crispy, even after the ride home. The new version of The Best Curry with shrimp was the star though. I asked for level 4 heat, and it was a perfect balance of richness and spice.

Diner Review №53

Best Thai food in town!

Diner Review №54

I thought the best pad thai was expensive at first but after ordering the quantity and the quality of the ingredients redeemed the $15 price tag. It's good!

Diner Review №55

The sweetest people, amazing customer service. So happy to have a good Thai place in Buda

Diner Review №56

The absolute BEST Thai!!! My husband and I’s favorite food truck!

Diner Review №57

I can no longer say there isn’t any good Asian food in Buda/Kyle cause this place is amazing! Food was so flavorful, good portions and comparably priced. The guys in the truck are incredibly kind too. We tried to order online but noticed that we weren’t able to customize our heat/spicy preference so we ordered at the truck and got our food within 10 mins. Highly recommend! And super excited to have another meal from gotji’s.

Diner Review №58

The food and service were outstanding. We had coconut soup, street noodles, pad Thai, vegetarian egg rolls. We ordered online and picked up. It was quickly prepared and just perfect. The servings are large so we have leftovers for tomorrow. We will definitely order from them again.

Diner Review №59

My brother and I stopped in from SA, on the way to a concert in Austin. We needed some energy and good food, for the mosh pit, so we decided to look around. Luckily we found this Gem of an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FOOD TRUCK! I’m picky on food. This made me tear up, after my first bite. It’s not common for that to happen to me! I would definitely drive from SA, just for this, next time!

Diner Review №60

Fantastic, kind customer service! I ordered the green curry with chicken and the pork egg rolls. There is easily enough green curry and rice for 2 LARGE portions. Absolutely fresh tasting and delicious.

Diner Review №61

We love Gotji! We mostly do Togo and everything we’ve had traveled well. We’ve had the pad Thai, several of the fried rice variations and the curry. Flavors are fresh. Service is extremely friendly and orders have been ready when they say it would be.
And if you’re lucky enough to catch them when they sell the chili oil get it while you can. It’s perfectly spicy and nice to have in the fridge.

Diner Review №62

My favorite Thai food! The American Pad Thai is the best I’ve ever had! The owner is always so nice and helpful. It’s always fresh and delicious! Great food and great service at this awesome food truck.

Diner Review №63

Great service and excellent food. The Best Pad Thai is amazing!

Diner Review №64

Outstanding service. It made our night! We ordered online for pickup at 8:15 and it was ready within 10 minutes. Once we got there, we wanted to eat it right away and the cashier was so hospitable. Offering more snack candies and ensuring we had everything we needed before they closed up! 10/10 would recommend!

Diner Review №65

This is easily one of my favorite restaurants in Buda. Their pad thai is a generous portion and is just fantastic. I also really like their pork eggrolls and soups. Owners are incredibly friendly and service is always pretty fast. This is the best Thai food around here, hands down.

Diner Review №66

Amazing food! The most delicious Thai food I've had in the area.

Diner Review №67

I have eaten here 4-5 times and it is the best Thai food I've ever had.

Diner Review №68

I was greeted by Very friendly and polite staff. The food was good. I got pineapple fried rice, spring roll, and egg roll. Their sweet and sour has a perfect kick to it. They also gave me a gummy candy and that was really good. I like places like this where i feel no stress from the interaction, it’s just nice and peaceful.

Diner Review №69

This place has been so delightful. The service is great , not to mention the food it’s so good ! Definitely the best Thai food truck ever.

Diner Review №70

Authentic Thai dishes, so delicious 😋

Diner Review №71

Best Thai food around. Great service, very personable. Well be returning.

Diner Review №72

Great service, super friendly staff! Food wasn’t my favorite. Quality ingredients, just lacking in flavor.

Diner Review №73

Delicious, good portion, and SPICY UPON REQUEST!

Diner Review №74

Really, really good!

Diner Review №75

Gotji himself is an extremely nice young man who intricately prepares your entree with such love and care.
My father is a 94yr old Korean War Vet who loves Thai food. We live in Buda now and just happened upon his trailer. Papa likes his food spicy (which showed 2 chili peppers). He ordered the #1 which consisted of shrimp, scallops, mussels…he usually has more than half of his meal for leftovers but he inhaled about 3/4 of his delicious meal.
I ordered the crab rice, having NO leftovers. 😂 Loved it!!! We’ll be back very soon.
Thanks Gotji! 💕

Diner Review №76

Pulled in at 9:03 with a group of 6, they not only graciously took our orders, but took several after ours, and was absolutely delicious. 10/10 will be back

Diner Review №77

My family and I had a delicious dinner tonight.
Food was great.
Service was even better.
We will be back.

Diner Review №78

Great service and fantastic food! Love this place!

Diner Review №79

FANTASTIC food. Had the Pineapple Fried Rice and loved it. Very flavorful. Great customer service!

Diner Review №80

First time I’ve had authentic Thai food in a long time. Great tasting food and excellent customer service! The best place to eat by far in all of Buda and Kyle 😋 and a bonus was the boba tea next door, it was also very good! We’ll be back!

Diner Review №81

Great Thai food and even better owners! We had the Roasted Chili Noodle and the Best Curry and couldn’t help but eat more after we were already full!

Diner Review №82

Delicious! Incredible customer service as well!

Diner Review №83

Always fresh and delicious, this guy has the best customer service, very polite and his food is of high quality ingredients. If you’re ever looking for Thai food and you are in south Austin or Buda, look no further this is the new hidden gem for Thai.

Diner Review №84

Diner Review №85

We literally Ordered Everything and I did not have this quality of Thai food since being in Thailand !!! My new favorite Thai place !
(Their coconut soup tastes like a vecation in Phuket!!! Delightful!!)

Diner Review №86

Diner Review №87

Diner Review №88

I stopped there yesterday as I was passing through Buda and got the crab fried rice and veggie rolls. Just delicious! Also, the guy there is so nice and friendly. He actually remembered me from last year. I look fwd to my next visit, this place is great! Give it a try!

Diner Review №89

Great food but awful hours, place is barley open

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

Best food and service in the central Texas area.

Diner Review №92

Really good customer service. Awesome food. Will be back.

Diner Review №93

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gotji's Kitchen and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere of the restaurant was warm and inviting, with friendly staff who were more than happy to assist with menu recommendations.

Diner Review №94

My family loves this trailer. Food and service is always great.

Diner Review №95

This place is outstanding. Best food truck experience, price is very reasonable and the food is exquisite. Will be back asap

Diner Review №96

Diner Review №97

Amazing sea food Pad Thai. The gentleman at the register took the time to walk us though the menu, and made some recommendations that payed off.

Diner Review №98

Our favorite Thai spot in south ATX! The staff are very friendly.

Diner Review №99

Okay, so I’ll be honest. I’ve kinda screwed myself by going here so much…because now, I can not get Thai food from anywhere else. This is, hands down, without a doubt, the best and most flavorful pad Thai I have ever had in my entire 30 years on this planet. Not to mention the guy that runs it is an absolute joy. The quality is always A+. I’ve never gotten Gotjis food and said “ it’s not as good this time” this man deserves all the success he has and more.

Diner Review №100

I just want to give a shout-out for the guy who took my order, unfortunately I didn’t get his name but it was outstanding costumer service. I haven’t tried the food yet but I’m sure it’s going to be delicious!

Diner Review №101

Everything tastes great at a great price. Located in downtown Buda Texas. Highly recommend

Diner Review №102

If you’re reading this it’s because you’re interested. Get it. Stop reading, call em or go right now and get this damn food. Thank me later, but btw you’re welcome.

Diner Review №103

First time trying it tonight! The person who took my order was so lovely and kind. He gently suggested I add the chili and lime and gave me an additional small garlic sauce to sprinkle over the top. I got the “Street Fried Noodle” with chicken and it was amazing! I don’t even like onions but the onions were cooked perfectly so I didn’t even mind. I will definitely be back.

Diner Review №104

Great food, quick and friendly service.

Diner Review №105

Best Thai Food in South Austin!!! Authentic food and friendly service (shout out Jason).

Diner Review №110

My wife and I picked up Gotji’s for the first time this evening. We wish we would have come here sooner! We had the American Pad Tai and Street Fried Noodle. Both were fantastic. Great food and service - we definitely recommend.

Diner Review №111

It's been a few months since we ordered from here. We forgot how delicious this place is!
I was hesitant to order the pineapple fried rice b/c we have had it at other Thai restaurants and never really loved it. But, Gotji's has changed my mind about this dish. I actually ordered it for my kids but I ended up eating a lot of it!

Diner Review №112

Fabulous food! And a shout out to Jason and Joseph! Super cool!

Diner Review №113

Probably the worst pad thai I've ever eaten. Tasted like ketchup, and not a flavor I look for in Pad Thai. Wouldn't recommend.

Diner Review №114

Excellent quality for the price! Ingredients are fresh, portions are generous, and quality is consistent. My personal favorite is the Pad Cashew. The Buda Fried Chicken is also very good. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Come try Gotji's and support local business!

Diner Review №115

There is a reason this is 5 stars! Tom Kha was legit. So fresh and flavorful. Red Curry beef was very flavorful, had a TON of veggies and mild spice (I like pretty hot so this may be spicy for some). Gotji's Larb Beef was good but will go for the Pad Thai next. The food was ready on a Friday night really quickly for take out. Friendly service.

Diner Review №116

Excellent food, and just as good customer service! I believe it’s the owner of the food trunk who mans the window most of the time. He is so kind, knowledgeable, and polite! Best Thai food in the area for sure!

Diner Review №117

So damm good! Why have you not tried it yet?

Diner Review №118

First time eating here, got a hot soup similar to hot and sour but tastier. Also had shrimp basil fried rice. No pictures but definitely one of the best I’ve had here in Buda. Highly recommend this food truck. I’ll be back next weekend.

Diner Review №119

I was new and was introduced to the whole food truck area in Buda by the people at Gotji's so nice and so delicious and freshly made! Do it - stop and order...

Diner Review №120

Great spot right off Main St. We’ve had half the menu at this point, and it’s all been very good.

Diner Review №121

Great more authentic Thai spot than you normally see in TX.

Diner Review №122

Diner Review №123

My new Thai favorite! For the longest time I've been ordering from the only Thai place I knew in Buda and one day I discovered you guys. Online ordering was so easy, lots of parking, friendly service and the best part, the FOOD is just so damn amazing, tastes fresh, delightfully seasoned, the price for the meals for the quality and portions is a steal. Loved the fruit gummies in my togo bag, yumm.
What we ordered for lunch was Pork Eggrolls, Roasted Chili Noodles with chicken and Crab Fried Rice. I'll definitely be back to try the curry and lots of other options.

Diner Review №124

Seriously some of the best food i've had in a long time. I had the best curry and it truly was the best curry. With the addition of mussels and crab I think $15 is a great price for some quality food. I live 30 minutes away and am eager to get back in the car and get some more Gotjis.

Also the other truck they have with Italian style Thai is extremely good too. Check them out!

Diner Review №125

I’m tempted to be selfish and not give this restaurant a 5 star review so it stays here in Buda and we can keep eating it 2 times a week for decades to come…

The food is so consistent. The chefs that run Gotji are always so friendly. They’re obviously very passionate about the food.

My favorite is the Basil Fried Rice!

Diner Review №126

Excellent food and very friendly staff. I like how they recommend you try different things. They really care about the quality of their food.

Diner Review №127

Awesome food. Great service!

Diner Review №128

Incredible food, these guys really know how to take care of you :). And if you’re nice they let you order from the secret menu :D <3

Diner Review №129

Excellent Customer service and food! Tried the Street Fried Noodle with Chicken and it was great especially not knowing what to expect going in as it was out first visit. Definitely will not be our la at visit!!

Diner Review №130

Omg the food here is sooo good. This is one of those places where you don’t even look at the menu you just ask them to surprise you and you are gonna be happy. There is no other place like this and the employees are so nice.

Diner Review №131

Delicious!!! I’ll be back soon

Diner Review №132

Now coming back to texas from colorado, i missed authentic thai food, luckily there was one right up the way from me! I always passed it when i go into town but one day i decided to go there. Well, mr. Jason was very respectful, polite and gave insightful information on where the food came from (authentic chef from the streets of thailand) not only the food is good, but light as well. You don't feel bad or sluggush afterwards. Found a new spot to eat!

Definite recommendation to anyone.

Edit: they do door dash!!! Even better!

Diner Review №133

Immediately hooked on the crab fried rice. The flavor is delicate but packed with umami. Love the chili sauce that comes on the side as well. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes! Service is super friendly and fast. Portions are generous but not too big, parking was easy to get in and out. Public bathrooms on site, in parking lot.

Diner Review №134

Diner Review №135

Super good! Great food and great service, definitely worth the usual wait time and the price
Edit: been going here pretty much regularly since it opened, and still have yet to get something I didn’t like, seriously- try this place.

Diner Review №136

All the good things that have been said are true. The food here is DELICIOUS

Diner Review №137

I ordered the Ka Pad Prao beef and it was amazing, as was the service. Hands down the best place for food in Buda.

Diner Review №138

Food is extremely tasty and the owners/employees were very nice. My favorite is the pad Thai. This place is extrodinary!

Diner Review №139

Food was delicious and staff is very friendly and super helpful this is a must try!!!

Diner Review №140

I love Gotji's Kitchen!! My food is always hot, fresh and delicious!
Jason is always super attentive and kind and i will forever be a customer as long as they are around!

Diner Review №141

Been here a few times now, and it's amazing every single time. The American Pad Thai is a favorite.

Diner Review №142

Amazing authentic, fresh curry and egg rolls! Friendly, fast service. The best Thai around!

Diner Review №143

The best pad Thai is indeed the best.

Diner Review №144

Love the food here. So good and the service is great. They are always so nice.

Diner Review №145

Excellent food! Gotji takes great pride in serving authentic Thai dishes with superb flavors, going so far as even using Thai basil in his recipes...much more robust flavor and spice...just had 5 different items off the menu and they were all right on. Thank you Gotji....

Diner Review №146

Diner Review №147

Best Thai food I’ve had in a long time and I really appreciate that they have a lot of gluten free options! We will definitely be back!

Diner Review №148

Great Curry and traditional thai

Diner Review №149

This place is amazing and if you are looking for tasty Thai food this is your place! The owner, Jason, is such a nice and welcoming person. He goes above and beyond with his customer service! You will not be disappointed! Support local!

Diner Review №150

Thai gem in the heart of Buda!Very good Thai food that follows authentic Thai cooking style. Some will find the authentic style different than other area Thai restaurants, which is what I call "mexi-Thai" as they will use jalapeño for spice. Gotji's nicely features a lot of seafood dishes. The staff is friendly and very helpful. I appreciated that they customized ingredients per my request. If you ever enjoyed authentic Thai cooking, you will find this a true gem!

Diner Review №151

The best Thai food around! Packed full of flavor. Well portioned. Everything I have tried is amazing. Treat yourself and make Gotji's you next lunch or dinner.

Diner Review №152

Customer service was wonderful.

Diner Review №153

Fantastic! Highly recommend!

Diner Review №154

Great customer service matched with excellent authentic Thai food!

Diner Review №155

This place is amazing, the staffs extremely nice, they make the best pai thai I've ever tasted, and the price is right, I can't complain. Their other food is also good, I've tried the street fried noodles and tom kha.

Diner Review №156

Diner Review №157

Super friendly, with great food!

Diner Review №158

tom kha + the best pad thai

Diner Review №159

The Best Pad Thai and Tom Kha were incredible! Never had Thai food this flavorful and delicious before. The workers know their menu very well and clearly care about delivering a great experience. We will be back often!

Diner Review №160

Definitely best Thai I ever had!. Owners attention and service was amazing he make sure we had the appropriate sauce and made several attempts until we found the one we liked!

Diner Review №161

Best pork egg roll I've ever had. Periodt. It took about 20 mins to get our food but it's made fresh and clearly made with love!! Delicious!!!!

Diner Review №162

Wow. So good. Was greeted with a smile and a friendly overview of the menu. The Pork Egg Rolls were dynamite. We’ll be back!

Diner Review №163

The egg rolls were perfectly fried and cooked - so tasty! We ate them in 2 minutes.

Diner Review №164

Diner Review №165

My husband and I ate early dinner here. Food was good and delicious. Good service and friendly employee. When our food arrived my husband could not wait to start eating his food while it was hot.

Diner Review №166

We live outside of Dripping Springs and wanted to try this Thai Food truck located about one hour drive from our house. Since they have two menus, one for each half of the week we made sure to call ahead. We were told that there was some event that Sunday, yesterday, and there may be a problem with parking. The event was 3.5 miles away and there is parking behind the food truck. No problem, we thought. After arriving in the vicinity, the streets were closed. We had to park several blocks away and arrived around 5 mins. before their listed opening time, 12PM. Once there, we noticed a red sign in the middle asking to call ahead with your order so you don't have to wait that long. A man appeared at the window and announced that they will not be open until another 10 mins. I asked if we could at least place our order. He just slid the windows shut. Since it was now 3 mins. to 12, I decided to call and place our order over the phone as the sign suggested. As I placed the call, I saw the same guy slide over to his phone and turn off the ringer. I hang up and we quickly fled the site. Though, Thai food is mostly rice or noodles with some protein and spices, their prices are pretty high. Not only that, it turned out they just recently added an average of $2 to all of their prices. "Authentic Pad Thai: $17). We still can't figure out why Texas food trucks in general, with no overhead really to speak off, must have prices higher than brick and mortar restaurants? The menu posted on the truck still had the old prices, just to make sure to add to the confusion. Finally, after not answering my call 3 mins. before 12, as we were driving back home, they call me twice. Really? Never again.

It was a dark and stormy night…and they were open! I got their signature dish with crab and it was incredible. This is some of the best Thai food around and the two people who helped me that night were so wonderful and brought my food out to my car while I waited. Will be back many times!

I recently went to eat dinner with my brothers in Buda. We went to Gotji’s, where we were greeted with wonderful hospitality and food that was out of this world. Truly the best Thai we have ever eaten! This little food truck houses beautiful spirits cooking with the best ingredients to bring a smile to your face. A must try for food lovers and flavor heaven.

Excellent! Best Thai food I’ve had in a long time. We ordered Green Curry, Pad Kee Mao, Pad Ka Prao Gai and veggie egg rolls. Everything was delicious and balanced. My favorite was probably the Pad Ka Prao Gai, stir-fried ground chicken dish served with a garlic fish sauce and rice. Look forward to trying more things on the menu!

Diner Review №181

The Best Pad Thai was absolutely delicious, and the curry very, very yummy. This place is a Buda treasure. Thank you Gotji's Kitchen for parking your truck here! The service was incredible: genuine friendliness and happy to accommodate our special request.

Diner Review №184

We came here for the first time yesterday. Food was served hot and tasted amazing!

Diner Review №185

Normally I frequent the other Thai food place in Buda. But after the crab fried rice, fried noodles with chicken, and meeting the very friendly and caring Jason at the pickup window, I’m going to be coming back for more! Great food, and friendly service, what else do you need?

Diner Review №186

Incredible food. I had the Best Pad Thai (T1) and Pork Eggrolls (T2) - it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. The Pad Thai is unlike any Thai food I have ever had, in the best way.

I will absolutely be back to try everything on the menu (although it will be hard to pass up that Pad Thai) - so excited to have such incredible food in Buda!

Diner Review №187

Y’all this place is bomb!! The owner is so sweet and the food was so freaking good. I’m definitely coming back ASAP!

Diner Review №188

We eat Thai food at least once a week and have some favorites around Austin but this may be our new favorite.
The egg rolls were perfect!
The Tom Kha was the best I have had in this area.
The American Pad Thai was super tasty
And last the green curry was right on target.
Plan on being a regular. Can't wait to try all the other dishes.

Diner Review №189

Best Thai Food in the Austin area I've tried so far. Crab fried rice and that recommended chili -- soooo good! I'll be back! Wish you had more on your menu though...

Diner Review №190

Everyone says bacon on anything. Bacon fried rice “spicy” is my new favorite thing.

Diner Review №191

I have eaten alot of Thai food all over Central Texas this trailer wasn't bad.
The basil fried rice had good flavor but the wok wasn't hot enough to really make it "fried rice". The #1 best pad thai wasn't bad I have to admit I have eaten more American style pad thai than traditional but it was good my only complaint was that two of the muscles in mine didn't open so didn't eat them flavor was good. But my favorite part was the garlic chili fish sauce they gave me on the side I love fish sauce. The veggie egg rolls wernt bad look forward to trying different menu item's next time I go because this is the best thai food south of slaughter lane...

Diner Review №192

I’ve been to a lot of Thai places around the Austin area, and this is the best. This is my third visit this month. The seafood is what to come for, but they also have chicken and tofu. I don’t think they even serve beef, but I don’t miss it! Mussels, crab, shrimp, squid, all of it has been great. They kick things up a bit from what most area Thai places do, and it’s well worth it! The seafood Pad Kee Mao and the Street Fried Noodle (similar to Pad See Ew) are my favorites so far, but I think I’m going to work my way all the way through the menu.

Diner Review №193

The pineapple fried rice was so good!! 10/10 would go back. I’ve got to say it was the best one I’ve had so far!

Diner Review №194

You can’t go wrong, I hope they choose to open a brick and mortar store in Buda

Diner Review №195

First time there, tried the Larb, street Fried noodle, and crab Fried rice all were on point. Only thing I would chang would be ask for more chili. But I eat ghost peppers so I like things hot. Canned Thai Tea was good.

Diner Review №196

Yes Indeedy....Go there when you can
Not the cheapest food but oh so delicious fresh and subtle

Diner Review №197

Best Thai food I have had in a long while, and the best service! I have celiac disease and told them and they said no problem, and made me a gluten-free dish From anything I wanted off the menu. Simply the best!

Diner Review №198
