Never had pad Thai before but this place was amazing ! 5 star

Diner Review №2

If you're needing gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, authentic spice, this place is for you! They are so kind and made sure to notify me of gluten free soy sauce for my allergy, and very knowledgeable about their ingredients.

Diner Review №3

Diner Review №4

Top notch food and service! We’re thrilled to have wonderful Tom Kha in Waco. Their panang curry is amazing, and they serve excellent pad thai as well. I love that the pad thai isn’t overly sweet.

Diner Review №6

Will was so helpful and an awesome food!

Diner Review №7

Best Thai food around! I’d drive to Waco just for Curry up and Wok food. The best and most authentic Thai food in Texas. Love this place and the atmosphere.

Diner Review №8

The best Thai food outside of Thailand by far!
I’ve been to Thailand many times and this is the only place I get that authentic taste.
Also the owners are the nicest people you will ever meet.

Diner Review №9

Food was delicious! The employees, Isaiah and Will did a great job. I got the Pad Kee Mao with chicken. We had to order more to go. 😄

Diner Review №10

The employees just work there, so don't bother asking about the menu. They didn't design it, so they can't describe it. Also, I know the pictures are always much nicer than the actual product, but the difference between the menu and the product at this location is ridiculous. It looks like a lunch cafeteria serving, no pride in their work.

Edit: While I completely applaud the family run business, the employees you had there today were either not family or simply did not care, and did a horrible job representing your values. They also cleary took no care in their preparation of our meal.

Diner Review №11

Diner Review №12

I had the fried rice with chicken and omg it was delicious 😋 definitely 💯 recommend. Will was very helpful and made great suggestions on what to try!

Diner Review №13

I am a Self Admitted Thai and in particular Panang Curry snob. If you like a real panang curry. nice thick sauce, with the right amount of sweet, spicy, coconut, peanutty and the aroma of the kaffir lime leaf...you will like this. So much flavor, nothing missing.
I got both the Panang and the Green Curry. both were so delicious. Super surprised this was in a food court. don't let that scare you!

Diner Review №14

Coming from someone that spent time in the restaurant industry AND in Thailand, this place is THE place to go in central Texas for anything Thai / Curry related!! The proprietor is awesome, kind, and the right kind of business owner that we need in Waco! Highly recommended!!!

Diner Review №25

Curry Up & Wok This Way is by far my favorite Thai food that I have ever had the pleasure of eating. I try to visit one of their restaurants once a week because it is so good! I have ordered everything on their menu and you can't go wrong with whatever you order. The food is fresh and the service is exceptional. It is always a pleasure to see Chef Bank.

Adan was very friendly and informative. He helped us decide what we wanted and even offered a sample of the curry. The food was good and portion sizes were generous - not enough for leftovers but we were full. We will be back to try some of the other items on the menu!

Diner Review №44

My family and I had a great first experience at Union Grove. It was hard to decide what to eat but I ended up trying the panang curry at Currh Up & Wok this Way and it was delicious! I was a little unsure about the sauce taste/spice level, and the person who helped me let me try it before purchasing to make sure I liked it. It was great customer service, and the food came out quickly! I would highly recommend!

First time here, amazing Thai food. I’m fall in love with their food🤍🤍

Diner Review №55

I placed an online order that was confirmed via email, but wasn’t received by the restaurant. After showing the confirmation email, the team was quick to prepare my food and make it right.

The food at Curry Up is consistently vibrant, fresh, and delicious. This restaurant is truly a gem among local spots in Waco, and one of my go-to places for authentic and comforting Thai food. My personal fave is the Pad Kee Mao, but you can’t go wrong with anything you order here! :)
