My friends and I were traveling through town to visit Natural Bridge, we were thrilled to find this Thai restaurant. The food here is truly authentic—absolutely delicious and far exceeded my expectations. It’s rare to find such genuine Thai flavors outside of Thailand, but the owner has truly captured the essence of home. She was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. The service was excellent, adding to the overall wonderful experience. If I find myself back in this town, I will definitely return to this restaurant. Highly recommended!
We recently visited the Natural Bridge State Park and decided to stop here for dinner. This restaurant is a hidden gem in the downtown area of Lexington. It was a weekday, and I was glad that this was one of the restaurants that remained open late. Street parking is complimentary for two hours, and there is a wide variety of options on their menu. We ordered our usual Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles, which were both delicious and not overly spicy. What surprised us was their portion size, which could easily feed two people in one meal. The Basil Fried Rice also had a very unique flavor that I couldn't stop eating. My friends ordered the curry dishes and were also very pleased with them. We will definitely visit again if we pass through this town in the future.
My husband and I ate at Napa Thai for the very first time last night. Everyone was incredibly welcoming from the moment we walked in the restaurant. Our server was so kind and took time to explain each dish to us as first time customers. Not only that, but following our meal she surprised us with a complementary mango sticky rice after learning that it was our anniversary. Being first time customers, we wanted to try a little bit of everything. We ordered The ginger perfect, drunken noodles, spicy beef salad, and panang curry, with two additional sides of jasmine rice. (We chose chicken as our protein.) We split all of the dishes and we both thought everything was phenomenal. We ended up having two boxes of take home. I am enjoying my left over drunken noodles to the fullest today and my toddler is scarfing down the ginger perfect like it’s her new favorite food. We will absolutely be eating here again. We will most likely become regulars with the wonderful service, delicious food, and extremely reasonable pricing. I highly recommend eating here
What a great spot to eat! When you walk inside you are greeted by a long hallway before you reach the entry. I find that very unique. The artwork on the walls are pleasing to look at. They were not very busy when we arrived for dinner and got seated right away. The atmosphere is pleasant and easy to sit and talk. Our server wasn’t sure what a vegan lifestyle was but he was able to put our dishes on the ticket as vegan and the chef made sure to not use certain sauces and such that were not vegan. We got an appetizer of fried tofu which wasn’t my favorite, I’d recommend trying the dumplings or edamame instead. I got the entree of vegetables in brown sauce and it comes with a side of white rice. My husband got the drunken noodles with tofu which had to have a different sauce due to the regular one having fish sauce but it was delicious! I hope to come back again before we leave. The staff was friendly and welcoming.
Very good Pad Thai and stir fried rice. The server was attentive and patient with our large group of 9 which included 5 children. Food preparation and delivery was quick, with frequent check-ins from our server. Thanks for the positive experience!
I was on the road, looking for something merely edible, and settled on Napa Thai. My expectations weren't terribly high.
What they served me was some of the absolute best Thai food I've had in a life that has been full of Thai food. I wish I'd been hungrier; all I ordered was the basil fried rice and the beef salad. Both were SUPERLATIVE.
It's not just that, if I'm ever in Lexington again, I'll stop by. In the future I'm going to plan trips through Lexington specifically so that I can have a meal at Napa Thai.
My husband and I were on a day trip to Lexington and we stopped at this Thai restaurant for lunch. It was amazing! I ordered the red curry dish and it did not disappoint! The service was great while we were there and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who's looking for a great time place in the area. We will definitely return on our next trip to Lexington!
This is my family’s favorite place to eat when visiting Lexington. We have always had the best service and best quality Thai food around. Napa is such a sweet soul. We went there to celebrate my birthday today and not only did she give me complimentary dessert she also gave me a gift from Thailand. I can’t recommend a better restaurant to go to! 🥰
Absolutely LOVE this place!!! Used to live in Lexington and I have to stop to see Nappa anytime I’m near town! It’s worth any traveling you have to do to get there. No other Thai restaurant can compare :) The owner couldn’t be sweeter and wants every customer to enjoy their food :)

The food was delicious. I had the drunken noodles with beef and it was delicious. My fiancé had the green curry with chicken and she really enjoyed it too. The meat is a bit tough but the flavors are great and my fiancé loved the flavor of the eggplant in the green curry.
Delicious! I got the drunken noodles, and they were just the right level of spicy.
Great food and service! I got the yellow curry with shrimp and it was delicious! Their thai iced tea was also excellent.
The basil duck was absolutely amazing! Great atmosphere and excellent service! Plus the Thai coffee and tea is a must! Would definitely recommend this to anyone who finds themselves in Lexington!
Delicious place. Great atmosphere for family dinners.
Great service

Came here based on recommendations but found it to be a subpar restaurant and not really an impressive one. Their Pad Thai hardly tasted like Pad Thai at all, and tasted more like tasteless, microwaved generic-bland noodles with vegetables and shrimp. Even with spice (I suppose this place’s spice levels are manageable for an American palate unlike my own), the other curry dishes didn’t improve and were just okay. Perhaps a local Virginian might like this place but for me, nothing here tasted Thai at all no (and the price just wasn’t worth it). Service was meh, and based on what I’ve tasted, I’d say this food is best served for a nursing home or hospital.
Spacious place with great authentic food. Chicken satay is very tasty and the Pad Thai is as well
Had some yummy pad Thai! Great service and food!
My husband and I were on a day trip to Lexington and we stopped at this Thai restaurant for lunch. It was amazing! I ordered the red curry dish and it did not disappoint!

Great Thai food and great for gluten free food.
You're better off with Uncle Ben's fried rice. Food was cold. Beef tasted old in the eggplant. Not sure why this place gets such high reviews.
Delicious food with huge portions. It’s a bit hard to find and the atmosphere is a little odd, so getting take out was the perfect choice for us!
Went through here while on Vacation. We placed a togo order and brought the food back to our cabin. Definitely some of the best Thai food I've had. The Pad Thai was delicious! Other people I was with enjoyed the Red Curry and Green Curry with Seafood. The mussels were soo huge! If your in the area give this place a shot.
My kids love Thai food and this place it great
Fantastic service guy was very nice. Great food recommendations, loved the crispy shrimp it was to die for.

My family went to eat and the food was delicious! The staff was friendly and professional.
I am new to town and I ordered take out, everything was wonderful from the service to the food.
Good food good atmosphere and awesome server’s
Me and my husband ate at Napa Thai and the food was really good quality and delicious 10/10
I came in and ate it was a good experience from the food to the esthetic.
Great place whether you’re looking for fancy or casual. Great fresh food! I love the pad se ew and the Thai tea! 10/10 would recommend
I came in yesterday to dine and the food was delicious and the decor was superb
Fantastic Pad Thai! Worth a drive!
Great food good atmosphere
This place is a gem if you love Thai food. Great food!!
Delicious food, great service! Try the panang curry if you can!
Try their fried dumplings paired with the sauce it’s phenomenal 🤌🏾

Wonderful establishment, I love napa thai the food is delicious, the owner is super nice. Try the drunken noodles!
amazing food.
Hope I can do a photo. Ordered via door dash and as expected a charge for the shrimp. But even at the restaurant they charge 7.50 for TWO pieces of shrimp, about 3 or 4 chopped pieces of mushroom, a few scallions in lemon grass broth (about 10 oz. of broth) And I foolishly paid 9,50 for this. I expected maybe 4 pieces of shrimp, but certainly more broth and mushrooms.
Of course with delivery can't comment on service or atmosphere, so just left those aspects as 3 stars...kind of middle range.
Never again will I order for delivery!
Party of 7 arrived at 3:30 pm. Frank opened the door 15 minutes early to seat us which was the start of awesome. We ordered fried dumplings and spring rolls. Served hot and delicious. The Tom Kai soup so on point and I ordered rice on the side to dip in my soup. So yummy! The waiter Frank was so accommodating bringing us sauces and extra seasonings to try. Every entree was pleasing to the eye as it was delicious and highlighted this downtown Lexington area one of my favorite destinations. I wish I had photos to share this awesome presentation of food. Even the water was delicious and served with pride.
Love the spice has a good kick we ordered 10 spice for papaya, 10 spice for fried rice, green curry, pad thai, pad see ew, calamari, and wings.
We shared the cashew stir fry, vegetables rolls — both were delicious. Highly recommend for fresh, tasty Thai food.
This is our favorite restaurant since we moved back from Thailand. My husband and I get Thai food everywhere we go but it never holds up to the food from here. We love Napa Thai and service and staff are great. I love practicing my Thai with the owner—she’s so friendly!

Outstanding spot for delicious Thai food in Lexington. Seafood was perfectly cooked and so tasty it had me already thinking of when I’d be back. A+
Truly outstanding dinner experience. Food was absolutely on point, particularly the dumplings which were the best I’ve ever had.
Decor was really fun and our server was super attentive without hovering really the best you could hope for.
I can’t recommend this place enough.
Had an absolutely amazing dinner here! Marshall the waiter was super helpful and friendly. I’m vegan and he made it super simple to navigate the menu and they had a TON of items that they could do dairy and meat free. The food was super tasty and I can’t recommend this place enough. I felt what I ate was pretty healthy as well!

My wife and I enjoyed our time at NapaThai. My curry was some of the best I've ever had. Everything was fresh and served by the kindest waitress. If you like Thai food you'll love this place.
Spend the weekend at Lexington and discovered this Thai restaurant. It was so good that we came back the next day before we left town. I haven’t had a good Thai since moving from MO and this one I can truly say the best Thai food I’ve ever had. If it’s not just 3 hrs away from home, I’m probably here every weekend. No joke. It truly is a hidden gem. I’m glad we found this place.
Surprisingly good Thai restaurant in the middle of Lexington VA. It was a relief to discover this place. It may not really be a 5-star experience, but relative to other options in the area, it's a real gem.
Nine Atmosphere and warm service! The papaya salad and fried banana are so good!
Excellent thai food. What a great find.
Une merveilleuse surprise! On ne voulait qu'un dîner asiatique, nous avons dégusté un excellent repas. Du bonbon!
Staff are super awesome and the food is amazing! Basil fried rice for the win.
What a hidden gem!! Fabulous service and even more awesome food!
Good food and relaxed atmosphere. Recommend extra portion of protien to balance noodle-to-protien ratio.
Excellent ! Ill return for sure
Never had Tai food before, but this place got me hooked! The staff was super friendly. Ordered to go and they were willing to work with me on my food. Had it done super quick and called me when it was ready. I ate the steam dumpling appetizer and panang curry. Not too spicy, super flavorful. The resteraunt itself was well decorated and looked like a great place to eat out. Definitely coming back!
Best Thai food ever! Great people who treat you like family. #18
They, just like everywhere else, are short-handed but the staff makes sure to never make it obvious. Our server was working his tail off to ensure all were taken care of in a timely and courteous manner. Kudos!
BLUF: 3.5. Excellent food in a centrally located Thai restaurant a few blocks from VMI. A few odd things, but still recommend it.
My wife and I had a delicious meal here MLK weekend. They have a really good menu and delicious hot sake. The sake was only seven dollars but it was a very small portion … maybe only 3 ounces? I found the odd elevator music not exactly what I would’ve chosen for a Thai restaurant. There was a nice fireplace in the middle of the room that we were in and there were several dining room areas scattered around the building. It is modest, relatively uninteresting decor. But it is clean and fresh and there was a sizable crowd scattered throughout the restaurant on a Sunday night. This was possibly because of an event at the school.
I had 6/10 heat level chicken Panang curry with white rice. My wife had the basil fried rice with chicken at 8/10 spice level. Hers was so hot. We were really amazed because we were told that above 10 was a Thai hot level and we have been to Thailand and enjoyed Thai food all over the world, and just didn’t expect that level of heat. In any case, it was very good for her because she likes it hot. My Panang was excellent at the 6 level.
When we ordered dessert, it was the only negative thing of significance in the meal. Our server was friendly and very helpful and when we asked to see the dessert menu, my wife and I discussed not getting the usual mango sticky rice we like. Instead, she wanted to try the coconut ice cream. She ordered it when the server returned, and I said to the server “Is that a popular dessert? “ she replied “Yes, it is coconut ice cream with little chocolate flakes. Would you like one scoop or two? “ I looked at my wife and before we could sort out what we wanted, our server said, “Well I’m really only supposed to give you one, but I’ll make it two for you. “ A few minutes later she showed up with two bowls, each with a single scoop in them. We thought that seemed very nice of her to split them up like that. But we were surprised when we got the bill and she simply charged us for two desserts. If I had misunderstood her, that was on me, but the fact that my wife heard exactly what I heard tells me that wasn’t a customer error. That was a server misrepresentation.
Best food in town
Lovely staff, accommodated all our picky (vegan) requests with a smile and the food was excellent! Truly a gem. The hot Thai tea, fried tofu, mango sticky rice, the fresh garden rolls were our favorite!
Basil fried rice. Crispy shrimp. Both of these were delicious. We highly recommend either of these dishes
This was a hit or miss for our group. All agreed the pad thai let us down: wet, but in need of more flavor. No complaints about the curry though, it was rich and warming. The thai tea is also delicious.
Not the best Thai food
We were a family of 10 including our parents who travelled from India. The food was awesome and was freshly made. Loved it will definitely recommend it to others.
Delicious variety of Thai food. Always fresh and hot. Pad Thai, spring rolls, drunken noodle and panang curry some of my top favorites. Initial spice level is comfortable and flavors authentic. Highly recommend gem in downtown Lexington! Friendly staff to make your meal more enjoyable.
Excellent food, drinks, and service.Entire meal was awesome, so well flavored and balanced. We had a marvelous time. Quiet, comfortable dining experience.
The food here is definitely worth going for. While the staff was friendly, it took a while for the food to get out and the atmosphere is old and tired giving it a slightly dirty feel.
Definitely worth going. Had drunken noodle, red curry and Tom Gha soup, all very tasty. Great and fast service.
Solid place to eat at! To preface, I may be biased as I believe Napa Thai have the best food in Lexington. I would not say that the food here is a life changing experience, the food is nothing special but it is good food.
My friends and I come here often, this time we got the Lemon Grass Soup, Pad See-ew with chicken, Beef kra pow, Salmon Panang, Tom Kha Soup, Pad Thai with shrimp, Curry (I don’t remember what colour). I only tried the first four dishes, so I’ll only be reviewing those!
Lemon Grass Soup 3.8/5: Somehow this soup kind of reminds me of the broth for phos after you add lime into it. There is a strong tang to the soup which surprised me. This dish polarised the table - with half of my friends enjoying it and the other half not. They did say that it tasted like the Tom Kha Soup without the cream (I could not vouch for this as I did not try the Tom Kha Soup this time. Personally, I enjoyed it (I do have a preference for sour flavors). I think it would be nice with some vermicelli noodles and more ginger. I did not try the seafoods in it so I could not make any comments on it. I do have a quip with it, though - it would be x100 better if it was hot (right off the stove type of situation).
Pad See-ew with chicken 3.9/5: My friend’s usual order. If you are a soy sauce enjoyer, I think you’ll like this dish. The noodles are cooked nicely and it got a nice bounce. The chicken itself did not absorb all the flavoring, but the sauce coats it. The sauce itself is alright (quite sweet actually), I do think that the soy sauce over powers other flavors, making the dish taste one dimensional at times. Overall, it is a solid dish and I think it can’t go wrong
Beef kra pow 3.4/5: I feel that I am a bit harsh on the rating for the dish - because truly, there is nothing terribly wrong with it. However, compared to other Napa Thai dishes (Basil Duck, Crispy Shrimp), it does fall flat. The beef texture is a bit grainy - a sign that the beef is old and lacks moisture. Same thing we the chicken in the Pad See-ew, the flavors of the sauce coats the beef rather than absorbed. The sauce is not bad, though. There is a nice hint of pepper in it - it isn’t spicy per se, but rather it adds more depth to the dish. I am disappointed with the onions, though. As an onion fan, the onion in the kra pow is not caramelized long enough (there is still a crunch to it), meaning the sugar content of the onion did not seep out into the sauce and that the onion did not absorb the flavors of the sauce. Personally, I would not order this dish again.
Salmon Panang 4.1/5: Now, I’m not a big fan of curry, but I can appreciate it when it’s done right. The curry is thick and creamy (and a bit oily), which really goes well with the rice by itself. It isn’t spicy at all (I think I would like a more if it had a kick to it). The curry also got really overwhelming towards the middle/end of my meal, I think there was too much of it (and the curry was relatively one dimensional - meaning there are no other flavors to break up the creaminess of it). By the end of my meal, I was scooping tiny portions of the curry and eating it with my rice. In terms of the salmon, it tasted alright, I do think I would enjoy it more should the salmon be more fatty and moist - it was a tad bit dry. The salmon skin was crispy in the first bite but it softened after awhile. Yet again, I would like to reiterate that I do not eat curries often and I truly believe if you like curries, you would enjoy this dish a lot.
Amazing, delicious 🙂 A wonderful experience and reasonable prices. Highly recommended!
Amazing, delicious 🙂 A wonderful experience and reasonable prices. Highly recommended!
They were super friendly and great with food allergies.
Dine-in: five stars for delicious flavor, freshness, and service. Take-out: 2 stars because out of the last few times I ordered 1) they forgot to pack the rice for a meal for four hungry hikers 2) they forgot the tofu in the veggie pho with tofu and 3) they stuffed cilantro into a dish where I'd specifically asked for no cilantro. When you eat in, you can ask them to fix it, but when you get it home and unpack it, well... Posting this in hopes they will be a little more careful about take-out orders so I can feel confident enough to try again.
Must stop Thai restaurant in Virginia! Stopped by on our drive from Fort Gregg-Adams to Fort Campbell. Don't let the outside confuse you! You have to walk in to see the vastness and beauty of the restaurant. When you do visit, ask for Paizley! She is the best! Ask for recommendations and she will let you know the best dishes. Thank you Paizley for making our dinner so special!
Joshua!
Great customer service. Called for a to go on our way and the service and food (order basil fried rice and drunken noodles) were wonderful 👌🏼 keep it up guys!
Absolutely the best thai food I have had in a long time, I loved the waitress, the vibes, and the speed. I got the Drunken Noodles and I was blown away.
Paisley was our server and I can’t say enough good things about our experience. I am gluten free which makes it a challenge to be safe while at a restaurant. A huge number of food choices could be made gluten free and Paisley steered me away from sauces and such that were not safe. We had appetizers and shared a Pad Veggie. The sauce brought out the flavor of the perfectly cooked veggies without overpowering them. Everything was delicious and I didn’t leave with a belly ache nor other autoimmune reactions which means the kitchen staff also took care not to cross-contaminate. Thanks for the lovely experience!
Amazing food and service! Highly recommend!
Another great meal at Napa Thai. Amazing service from Lee. A comfie and private booth. And my customized pad Thai served perfectly and the portion was so huge I’ve got leftovers for lunch and dinner tomorrow!
Really enjoyed our first visit to NapaThai. Very good food & everyone was very nice. 😊
Excellent food, fast and friendly service. Highly recommend. Will be dining here on our return trips.
I stopped in Lexington specifically to eat here (2nd time). Love their curries and drunken noodles. Service was kind and attentive.
This Thai food was fantastic. I came to Lexington from NC for a wedding with my friend. She recommended NaPa Thai so we decided to go first thing in the morning on Sunday before our drive and bring it home to eat.
I got the red curry with chicken and got my husband the drunken noodles. We were the first customers of the day and the employees even brought us some water while we waited for the to go orders. Both dishes were *incredibly* good. Some of the best Thai food I’ve had in North America!
Great service, wonderful food!
Food was pretty good. Portions were small. I am skinny and don't eat a lot and I was about 80% full with one entree. So you need appetizer, entree, and dessert to really get full, probably $30 per person not including tax and tip.
We had a great meal following our son's graduation. The team at Napa Thai is wonderful and made us feel right at home with delicious food and great service. Thanks!
The food is fantastic. Best Thai we have ever had. Service is simple delightful.
Great food! We got fried tofu, red curry, shrimp pad thai, and the ice-cream plate. All were excellent and came out with surprising little wait. Our waiter didn't seem very happy about doing all the work himself, but did a great job nonetheless. Definitely recommend and would come here again.
AMAZING experience! I was here with a friend Thursday last week for supper. The waitress was incredibly knowledgeable about the food and ingredients. It is so rare to find such quality staff these days, so I was quite impressed! The chefs worked with us to make our dishes specific to my food sensitivity. They went over and above to make sure we had a very special evening, with tasty food, and fantastic service! They really care about their customers!
We were excited to eat here based on reviews. We watched multiple tables arrive after us and get served their food before us. I had the ginger perfect dish with chicken. The chicken was very dry like it had been frozen and freezer burned. The ginger was not fresh and lacking flavor. The restaurant overall was dirty. The only thing I enjoyed eating was the spring rolls.
Don't let the underwhelming decor fool you; this place serves some of the tastiest food in Lexington. Would especially recommend red and green curries: perfectly cooked with the right amount of heat and vegetables that are not mushy (thank you). Another winner-- chicken satay-- very tender with nice peanut dipping sauce (had to get a second helping).
The spring rolls were excellent. The basil fried rice was very tasty but the portions could be bigger. Thai tea was on point.
Great food and friendly staff. We love coming here so much.
Ate here mid-week and they were fairly busy. The food/service was very good. We'll return.
There has never been a time we have gone and have had bad food or service. No matter what we have ordered, it has been delicious. Every server we have encountered has been attentive and ensured a great experience. If it was feasible to my wallet and my waistline, I would eat every meal here.
What a great spot to eat! When you walk inside you are greeted by a long hallway before you reach the entry. I find that very unique. The artwork on the walls are pleasing to look at. They were not very busy when we arrived for dinner and got seated right away. The atmosphere is pleasant and easy to sit and talk. Our server wasn’t sure what a vegan lifestyle was but he was able to put our dishes on the ticket as vegan and the chef made sure to not use certain sauces and such that were not vegan. We got an appetizer of fried tofu which wasn’t my favorite, I’d recommend trying the dumplings or edamame instead. I got the entree of vegetables in brown sauce and it comes with a side of white rice. My husband got the drunken noodles with tofu which had to have a different sauce due to the regular one having fish sauce but it was delicious! I hope to come back again before we leave. The staff was friendly and welcoming.
Our food was delicious and it has a very cozy atmosphere. The drunken noodles were pretty spicy. We went on a Saturday and got our food quickly.
Really friendly staff and great food.
Favorite restaurant in Lexington. Prices are reasonable, service is good, food is terrific.
Great food, love that there is a great Thai place in Lexington, VA! Only 4 stars on service because the wait can be exceedingly long when busy. They, like many places these days, are struggling to find sufficient staffing. It's hard out there these days. The wait is still worth it, just plan ahead if visiting or ordering during peak hours.
My husband and I tried Napa Thai restaurant and loved everything- steamed dumplings with a delicious sauce, Tom Kha soup with chicken was terrific and the entree was Panang curry (mine with tofu, my husband had chicken) - it was sooo very good! We both can't wait to come back and highly recommend it here.
Been to Thailand and they are just as good if not better for the American pallet
Fresh and delicious !
Family friendly too
I travel all over the country and this is the best Thai I have ever had. Service was exceptional. Highlights were Thai tea, edamame, and chicken pad thai. Drove 1.5 hours and it was worth it!
Great service and food! Fair pricing.
Stopped with some boys to eat a quick dinner. Enjoyed the Pad Thai very much. Sweet, spicy, tasty, and does not leave you feeling unhealthy as lo mein would.
Stopped by a second time... food was delicous but there were ants on the table, I had to blow 5 off through our meal
We love getting Napa Thai when we come over the mountain! Hands down the best Pad Thai anywhere!
Tasty and good service. They warned they were understaffed but the crew we got clearly was putting in a hustle to make guests feels served and welcome
Super good find! I’m celiac & the staff was knowledgeable in helping me know what to order. I got the green curry with chicken & the food was great!
Great food and friendly staff made the evening wonderful.
A bit of a wait due to staffing issues (which they told us before seating), but delicious food all around. Would definitely be back.
Mediocre food, slow service, small portion
Delicious. Must try the steamed dumplings.
Delicious meals and super friendly staff.
On vacation ordered chicken fried rice and chicken pad thai to go. Asked CFR with 10/10 spiciness. CFR was nothing but clumps of brown rice - absolute no flavor and it was barely spicy. Wife said CPT was much worse than my food. Trashed all the food. This place is not worth and it is not even Thai food. Can't believe this place is tricking patrons by calling what they make as Thai food. Owner - No Refund necessary.
On vacation stopped here, everything was excellent and service was wonderful
Amazing food and really good service, they're really friendly!
Delightful place with amazing food and great staff!
My family and I were headed to DC for a funeral. We were all a little tired so we decided to pull off in this quaint town for the night but we were hungry! Someone mention Thai food. The hotel had a list of restaurants and voila this restaurant was mentioned. Man we ate like kings and queens! They even altered a plate to satisfy my 7yo child. Tasty and delicious. This is a little hidden gem! I’d go back to the town just for this restaurant.
Excellent Food And Amazing Service!
Great food with lots of options that can be made vegetarian or vegan
Down Right Nasty!
Place is filthy!!! Dirty Carpets. Spiders under table that like your legs!!! Glimpse of kitchen was a mess. A thousand rolls of toilet paper and other stuff stockpiled beside dining tables...that was a red flag! I'm a FL Chef and Sick as dog after eating NT Basil Duck. Tasted like what I imagine 2 day July road kill to be. Never Again! Last C-Note for 2 for dinner ever there. Server and hostess were very pleasant. Place was chocked with loud W&L students who must get a meal plan there because it seemed like a cafeteria and which explains 5 star reviews. Seriously, Go elsewhere! NT you gotta clean up your act, don't know how Health Dept lets you stay open.
I would sell my soul to eat basil duck everyday for the rest of my life.
Very good food and service. I had steam dumplings and beef sweet and sour. Both were excellent. If I'm in this area again I will definitely stop.
Always delicious 😋
Always awsome food great people
Quaint place and kind service! Classic thai tea and green curry
The food was good and the waitstaff was friendly and attentive. Not nearly as crowded together as other local restaurants.
The food was absolutely delicious and the service was outstanding! I live hours away from here but I look forward to coming here again soon :)
Best Panang curry I’ve had in ages!! And all of the other food was delicious too. The place was packed and they were really understaffed but the servers were literally RUNNING between tables and were so nice despite being so busy and stressed. Highly recommend!!
We had the dumplings, papaya salad, pad Thai and it was scrumptious!
Good food. Currently understaffed like most restaurants so the wait is longer than you'd like.
The food was Absolutely Delicious!!
The staff was very helpful and pleasant!!
Highly Recommend!!
Busy place. Food was good. I asked for an 8 out of 10 on spice level, and felt they nailed it: spicey for sure but not inedible.
Spring Rolls and Basil Duck were great!
The place was extremely busy but yet all the staff was literally running, catering to every guess. Our waiter Marshal was amazing
There was also one of the hostess Victoria that ran outside with a pitcher with water bc a guess lit a plant on fire with a cigarette… I believe she was the same one that ran with a hat that a guest left behind.
The wait was long but the food was great and the service excellent!
Food is great, ambience could need some updates
Food is good but the portions, at least fried rice, are 1/3 smaller than the plate - not enough food.
After finding parking, which may be a problem, went upstairs and ordered a spicy salad. I like Thai food and everyone should try it!
I rarely write reviews but this food was so delicious! Best meal I’ve had in ages. I will definitely come back when in the area again, thank you .
The best Thai food I've had in a long time!
Fast delivery. Food is fresh. Deliciously prepared. Never disappointed.
Great food, great service.
Our waitress was so sweet and I enjoyed the atmosphere. I loved the food and was thankful the waitress took her time to explain any questions we had.
Best Thai food in the world. Hands down.
Food was delicious, server was helpful and attentive.
Good food made very quickly
