Thai Cuisine & Pho
I was excited to find a Thai restaurant that was close to the area I loved in! This restaurant had a nice variety of options for noodles, rice dishes, pho, and lots of delicious drinks. My friend and I were also impressed with the flavor and felt that the prices were standard for this type of cuisine. Would totally come back here in the future!
We had the appetizer sampler which was a great size and each item was good. The egg rolls were my favorite and my husband loved the potstickers. He had the pho with beef and really enjoyed it. I ordered the cashew nuts with chicken and it was really good. The vegetables were cooked nicely and the portion sizes were good. Their sauce work is great and they have a decent depth of flavor. We'll probably be back to try more!
This is my first time at Thai Lao, so I was incredibly pleased with the amazing decor! The restaurant looked so clean and organized, you can tell the owners put a lot of love into this place. However, I don’t think they should advertise Pho when they only have one Pho dish, which was a bit disappointing for me, thus the 4 stars.
For drinks, we ordered Thai coffee (You have to try this, it’s amazing) and sweet iced tea.
As an appetizer, we got the chicken pot stickers, took roughly 5 minutes to get them out and they were delicious!
For entrees, my partner and I ordered the yellow and red curry with chicken. Personally, I liked the red curry a bit more, it was spicier than the yellow, which was on the sweeter side. I thought the yellow curry lacked a little on the flavor, but it was still very good!
Overall, I say definitely give this place a try for their curry. I’ve read the other reviews and it seems that this place is a hit or miss, depending on what you get.
Place: Interior was really clean design, I think more of Industrial design (black, gray, brown and white) It's literally clean and not crowded the time we went.
Service: It was pretty good. The woman who assisted us helped us to pick which was the must try.
Food: I did like it! The curry was really tasty. We ordered spring roll and beef with veggies. I enjoyed the thai and asian spices of this restaurant.
I picked up order for fresh spring rolls with tofu. I have never tried these with the plum sauce it comes with, but it's great!!!! I came back and placed another order 🤣
We came here first the first time, October 8th and had dinner. We had the Pad Thai and Panang Beef. The food was awesome! Easily some of the best Thai food we've had in years. The ladies working tonight did a great job and the waitress was nice and friendly. We will definitely come back.

Great food! Highly recommend the pot stickers, egg rolls, and fried rice!
Always great food;)
This place is a gem ! Try the pho ! If you want a delicious red curry or unsweetened tea give it a try ! I’m a very picky critic. This place checks off all of the boxes. The prices are the cherry on top. 10/10
Great food! Awesome experience, spring rolls Da best!
This place has a great menu but today I went and b4 I walk in a police truck was already parked, I went in police left, I order Thai Basil but I noticed this time there were some pieces that tasted like they were old and since right now I’m going through some type of transitional situation. I have a weird feeling that it’s not a good idea to go eat out. I came home and had really bad diarrhea so hopefully nothing else happens to me in the next few days I am thinking of getting my blood checked and I’m gonna go to the doctor cause I wanna make sure nothing was put in my food. because the lady who always talks to me wasn’t in the front so I’m not sure what happened but I know she did prepare my food. And was in the back very quiet. Sidenote I love this place. It’s a really good restaurant so I really hope no cop paid anybody or did anything crazy to try to hurt me?
One of my favorite Thai restaurants close to home, excellent food and good service
I Went here for the first time today for lunch without knowing what to expect. I actually really enjoyed the food. The vibe in there was beautiful and the restaurant is super neat. Will definitely be frequenting this spot.
Good Thai food.
The food overpriced and mid at best. The cashier was more focused on carrying an unintelligible conversation rather than tending to her customer. Would not recommend.
The pad Thai and pad see ew are very bland. Never had Thai food with such little flavor. Pad see ew tastes like plain egg noodles and chicken broth. And the lady was rude. Not returning

The flavors are good, but the portions are quite small for the price. Also, no free drink refills.
I love massaman curry and order it at just about every Thai restaurant I come across. This was not massaman. It tasted more like a watered down yellow or maybe even a green curry with way too much salt. Nothing like any massaman I’ve ever had at the dozens of other restaurants I’ve order it from. Very odd and very disappointing.
I'm a local construction worker building the Methodist hospital across the street.
I wanted something healthy so I came here but was greeted with rudeness and disrespect, I'm assuming because my work attire.
Disappointed!
RUN! COCKROACHES were running up the walls, the owner was outrageously rude - to the point that she rolled her eyes and argued with me when she brought me the incorrect order. She had clorox and makeup out on the dining tables. The place, ownership included, was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING
The Pad Thai is not made with the normal Pad Thai sauce but a red sweet & sour sauce with a strange smell. Personally I was not a fan and prefer a traditional Pad Thai. I then tried the Pad Mee and it tasted really good but I also got severely sick at both ends after eating at this place. So eat at your own risk. The food was beautifully presented and the service was decent.
It looked slow for a Saturday night but that’s okay bc i picked up my order earlier than expected. I ordered the beef pho , beef fried rice and beef pad see. Flavor was on point and portions were more than expected. My sons first time trying Thai cuisine and he loved it!
Can't believe it took me so long to try this wonderful place! Everything was delicious & the waitress was very nice.
Nice clean quiet atmosphere and pleasant service. Good selection of great food.
Multiple plates ordered to Share between the 4 of us/// Pad Thai was extremely Sweet Red Sauce?? Ketchup or Sweet Chilli Sauce??? The taste was way off to include the Chicken almost tasting Spoiled to include the other meals..// The other 3 plates were kind of picked over// all 4 of us agreed that the Food taste was WAY OFF .. Not sure if it was an off day or what?? Sorry yall NOPE...
Would definitely recommend!! We went for dinner just before the close time, but to our surprise, they graciously asked us to come inside. We ordered food for 4, the food was delicious!!!! We would definitely go back again.
Absolutely delicious! I stopped in for a quick lunch. The service was quick! The food was steaming hot. Definitely a nice place to stop for lunch.
Best drunken noodles tasty pad Thai pot sitckers fabulous Thai egg rolls! Wish I could have taken picture but it’s all gone.
I ordered delivery. The delivery fee was a little high, but that's fine. The food arrived quickly and was very hot. The food itself was not good. I couldn't stomach the pad Thai at all, it tasted rotten. The pineapple fried rice didn't have much flavor, which was better than being bad flavor, but it was very oily. The pineapple was fresh, but it hadn't been cut properly, and many of the pieces were just core. Onions weren't listed as an ingredient on the online menu, but they were present in large chunks. The portions were quite small.
When I called the restaurant, they were very friendly and refunded my food. I will probably return just because of how friendly they were, but I will be more careful about what I order next time.
Thai tea was delicious!!!! Food was super good! Definitely a must try!
Best Thai tea and Yummies for your tummy. Sweetest singing server❣️🙏❤️
Let me say, I loved this place from the moment I walked in. Nice decor, comfortable chairs, very clean. 100 score record posted on the outside door. The waitress was kind and very helpful. The peach tea and mango tea taste great. The Spring Rolls tasted great and the sauce that came with them was a little spicy. The Thai Crispy Rolls were tasty. The food came out quickly and was fresh and hot. Great hidden gem and we will definitely be back and add it to our Thai take out orders.
Amazing food, we stop by as often as possible. The pad thai is very good.
Very good food and this place is extremely clean
Great food and service! We ordered the Thai Lao sampler platter, Pad Thai, & Pad Mee (delicious oyster sauce!). Everyone was very impressed with their dishes. Our waitress was very attentive! So much food! We all had to go boxes! Definitely recommend!
Great Curry - tastes like in Thailand 👍
Best chicken pad thai in San Antonio and I've been to many different thai restaurants
BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
Asked for shrimp soup, I got chicken (rude waitress says, you said chicken!) When I clearly not
Husband found a hair on his soup, rude waitress stated she never saw it!! Never going back to that place
Great service and friendly and delicious food High recommend
No public restroom = 1 star from me. Didn't even bother walking in. Brick-and-mortar restaurants need a restroom.
...Was my first review, and was 1-star. Tried the food via takeout recently, and ... was equally unimpressed. There are better Thai options nearby. Stick with those.
Some of the healthiest pho I’ve ever eaten! My bf also got the “tiger tears” & the sauce w: the veggies were SOOOO good. Very quiet atmosphere & will def be back soon.
Don't bother ordering online there's a strange $1.50 service fee that the woman couldn't explain over the phone. Just call it in. Filled my stomach nothing extraordinary.
Decided to try something around this part of town since I’m new to the area. I ordered Togo as I was on a lunch break from work. The order went well except when I asked if they included chili oil (because I know some places don’t with their pho) I got a response like yes of course as if I should know it is included. Other than that I placed my order fine and was given my food in a quick 10 minutes. I ordered the beef pho I specified eye round but the meat I got was thick and tough so I don’t think she heard that part and Vietnamese egg rolls which were very tasty and cooked perfectly. I would just have to complain about the attitude I got about the chili oil which was not included in my Togo order afterall only some sauce which looked like a mix of hoisin and siracha. I added both but the soup was still bland and since I picked out the meat was already lacking protein. I rarely stray from my usual spots because of issues like this and will just be sure to wait to satisfy my pho craving at my usual spot next time.
I had the p h o and my friend had some other dish with chicken and it sure was good.
Quiet place to chill and have some great food.
This place doesn't disappoint. Been multiple times and had different dishes, will be back.
The Pad Thai was good. The Lad Nah was not flavorful.
I was not happy with the price. Tuesday Lunch, and I paid $30 for these two dishes and a side of steamed rice. The portion was half that of other Thai restaurants in the area, but they try to spread it out in the box to make it look like a lot. Will post pictures as well.
A step below the other Thai places in the neighborhood. Pad Thai is good. Everything else is off, especially the curry.
Clean place, good food. Nice grandma.
We highly recommend this quaint restaurant. The ambience is relaxing, the decor is not obtrusive. Very clean. Good food! I had the yum tom and the yum nur. My daughter and husband had the panang and massaman. The service is superb!
Amazing place authentic Asian food!
The best spring rolls in SA. The curry was pretty good, but the fried rice dishes are amazing. Excited to try more!
We came here first the first time, October 8th and had dinner. We had the Pad Thai and Panang Beef. The food was awesome! Easily some of the best Thai food we've had in years. The ladies working tonight did a great job and the waitress was nice and friendly. We will definitely come back.
Pho and green curry were delicious! Great service
Nice and clean restaurant, server is very nice, food was excellent
Everything was good :)
came after work & the food was amazing! Thai tea is my favorite, and im happy I found some here
This is a lovely laid back restaurant! I enjoyed the Pas Thai. Definitely coming back!
great frried rice.... yummy
Good place to eat
Loved it! Went with my wife & mother. Don't listen to the reviews talking about bad service; clearly these people aren't down to earth and don't know what they are walking into. This isn't a fine dining experience, don't expect that kind of service. It's straight to the point; the focus is the food. Every dish ordered was flavorful; can't wait to go back.
Don’t go here! The service was super rude. We had to seat ourselves, she just overall wasn’t nice. I ordered the green curry…the curry itself was terrible the spice was fine but the overall flavor wasn’t good. I wasn’t gonna return on that alone. But as I continued to eat the 13$ curry I see hair in the rice. It was a long strand of hair that was intertwined with the rice itself. So gross. To top it off we were still forced to pay for this food (they sent a replacement but who wants to eat food from the same kitchen) don’t go here if you can avoid it. It wasn’t good and there are PLENTY of Thai places in San Antonio. Honestly Yayas Thai, Noppagao JUST to name a few but don’t go here.
A well-appointed and immaculately clean little restaurant. It has a very limited menu and is missing some rather staple menu items such as Laab or Yum Nua (Thai Beef Salad). The food was good but unremarkable. Thai food typically has a certain zing to it. This didn't. You probably won't be disappointed eating here, but you probably won't be inspired to come back either.
I never in my life wrote a review about anything or took the time about reviewing other than just simply wont go back or just spread the word. As for my wife and I went to this place, service was not the best, and the food (Pad Thai) was horrible, had a Metal smell too. Told waitress about it, but she didnt care, that would be $45 dollars please. We informed her about our experience as we had a full plate of food that we did not touch. The place did not meet us half way so beware. It gets better or should i say worse, brought the food home, and our dog (mikey) did not even eat the food either. So definitely not he best not even ok, and definitely needs more experience in customer service as well.
I love Pad Thai and this place nailed it. Egg drop and drunken noodles were also really good.
Very delicious food, I recommend this restaurant to everyone. The service is good too, the only complaint I have is that the amount of food served on the plate, seems to me, a little less amount of what used to be served a few months ago, so minus one star.
We always order Uber from here. We have had the pho, pad Thai, and pad woonsent. They’re always super fast and the food has been delicious every time. I was hesitant to try them because of the overall review but I was not disappointed when I gave them a chance.
One of the worst customer experiences ive encountered in a long time...
There were only 3 total customers in the restaurant when i arrived...
Got seated once and wasnt addressed to place my order for 15 minutes...
I attempted to be patient just to have the waitress tell me they didnt have the ingredients for an item i ordered,in response
i decided i no longer wanted the item...
I then waited another 15 minutes just for the waitress to tell me"its coming"... at that point i had enough and it was time for me to leave and take my business elsewhere...
Customer service was PATHETIC!!!
And it was my 1st time at the restaurant.
I wanted to try a new place and i guess thats what i get... simply as terrible as it gets....
One of our favorite Thai resto in San Antonio. Everything is delicious! The place is super clean, and excellent customer service!
Great Thai food. Love it.
This place was great! I loved it and will be back. Everyone was friendly and attentive! This place was also very clean!
I ordered a spicy curry plate for takeout and it was pretty fast and good service. The plate was spicy just how I wanted it and very savory; full of flavor. 10/10 i’d recommend.
My Korean wife loved the Shrimp Pho! Quickly prepared and well packaged.
Food was amazing!! Try the chicken clay pot it is so good! As well as the pot stickers 🤟
Excellent food and service! Best pad thai I've had in San Antonio.
Great Thai place we just discovered in the strip mall. Food is outstanding, and the place is very clean. Their last health inspection rating was a 100/A. Will definitely be going back.
Beware - I would not recommend this place to anyone. I ordered The Pho and it was horrible. The waitress asked me if I would like to order something else after noticing I was not eating the Pho after my first bite. After having tasted the Pho I was hesitant to order anything else, thinking I would be safe I ordered Pot Stickers…a few minutes after hearing a microwave open up and turn on I received my Pot Stickers. I immediately called for the check and was out of there.
Amazing food! It's now our go to place when you want to avoid large restaurants and are in a rush.
They keep the tails on their shrimp in shrimp fried rice. It tastes good. Just wierd.
This restaurant is delicious very affordable and super friendly service absolutely loved it

Best Thai food in the alamo ranch area! Green curry is absolutely to die for 😋
Great food and service!
Tasty food and great service
First time trying this restaurant. Very clean and staff was very helpful. We had read all the reviews while we waited for our food, did get a little worried but it was actually really enjoyable. We got the Vietnamese coffee, Vietnamese egg rolls, and drunken noodles medium heat with chicken. It was all delicious and fresh. The prices are average affordable. Definitely recommend giving this place a try.
Always good food and great service
This is my first time at Thai Lao, so I was incredibly pleased with the amazing decor! The restaurant looked so clean and organized, you can tell the owners put a lot of love into this place.

Great atmosphere. Very clean. Great service and great food. My first time there. I'll be back.
Great food. Great service. Slowly working my way thru their menu.
3 of My Family members got food poisoning from this place. They Had to visit doctor, it made them very sick they had to take medication. Thanks for Nothing. they Will Never return !
Couldn’t even tell you if food was good. Placed an order online and they closed early unknowingly. Drove to pick up food and was told to contact google for a refund. Don’t order from here unless you call the restaurant directly and know they are open. Not great customer service.
First time ordering here. I ordered the shrimp pad thai. The food did not taste anything like pad thai. It was drenched in some red sauce and tasted as if just came out of the microwave. I will not be re-ordering again.
Very delish! 😋 Clean and reasonably priced. Must try!
Delicious food, very spicy
Decided to try this restaurant and called in my order to go. I found 2 short curly hairs in my bag which was a bad start to a really bad meal. The chicken curry had so much oil in it that I couldn't taste anything else. I could visibly see the oil sitting on the top of the bowl. The white rice was cold and stale. The fried rice was very bland. The sesame chicken was sitting in so much watery sauce that the chicken became soggy and started falling apart. The only part of the meal that was slightly enjoyable was the pot stickers.
Ordered takeout and it was absolutely delicious. We got the garlic lovers and the mixed vegetables both with tofu- will be ordering again!
Very good and quiet thai restaurant. One of the best in San Antonio.
First time we visit. Took a take out menu to order. When my husband ordered I notice my entree was a different price from the menu in the receipt, and I ask for chicken so the price wasn't supposed to change. When we ask the server/cashier, said the take out menu was the price for launch and that the big menu was for dinner, so I checked and was everything the same price. When tried to talk to her and explain she kept interrupting me repeating again and again the take out menu was price for lunch and not dinner (bull#&%*), and didn't let me even talk. Take out menu doesn't say anywhere prices are for lunch only. Food was good but too bad the experience I had made me decide to not go back.
Food was fresh and tasted great! Friendly service and very clean. Highly recommend!!
Food was fantastic! We got the appetizer sampler and it was so tasty and filling and we loved the 3 different sauces that were provided to mix and match! For our entrees we had pad Thai and sesame chicken. The pad Thai was delicious and the sesame chicken had a darker taste (almost like dark soy sauce) but was tasty! Will definitely be back!
Tried the Pad Ginger with chicken and Shrimp Fried Rice. Both were great! Everything was fresh and delicious. We’ll definitely be back to try more menu items.
Unfortunately the Pad thai was one of worst I've had, it was dry, lacked flavor and was doused in red sauce.
Loved the food and the staff was very friendly.
Food is good. I ordered Pad Thai with chicken, but it was not original Pad Thai. Very spicy. The original Pad Thai is not spicy.
Clean, nicely decorated. Server was friendly, courteous, and attentive and she was by herself. Food was delicious and piping hot. I will be back and will definitely be back. This is a promising lil' neighborhood eatery!
Had the sesame chicken, chicken fried rice, and spring rolls and it was all amazing. Definitely coming back here more often!
Always good food and service with a smile
Was nice to dine in. Please stop by and help this small business.
One of the best Thai places in the area. Food is delicious!
Delicious and Very Down Home Feel
Staff is very friendly but food it’s not to the standards of the other Thai restaurant in the area. Prices are too high for the lack of food quality. This restaurant definitely not cooking Thai food, it’s just some type of Asian food.
Delicious food!! Pho was amazing!! I will be back and telling my coworkers!
Awsome food and lovely staff best Thai food and very quick service
Finally had the chance to eat here,... good things come to those who wait! Food was excellent! I will return soon!👍
Great food! We had chicken pad Thai and basil chicken. We ordered the pad Thai mild and it was almost too spicy, so order no spice if you don't like it. The inside is pretty and modern. We carried out our food, and it was ready promptly. Would definitely go back!
One of the best Thai restaurants in town....
Posted pics of my entrées that the wife and I had.. absolutely delicious!!!!
Really good food! I had the egg rolls and chicken satay, and yum nuer(beef salad)! I would come back again.
Fast service, prompt and attentive staff. Manager is super nice. Very friendly. Come try this Thai place out.
Tried the Chicken Satay it’s soo good !
The pad Thai comes in a huge portion, is absolutely delicious and the spice levels are balanced with savory flavors. The egg drop soup is rich in flavor. This is a place worth spending money at and I will definitely be coming back.
Tried the Tom Yum, thai egg rolls, Bun combo, pad thai and pho. All super delish!
