Lunch special: Chicken pad thai (bean sprouts on the side per my request), soup of the day, crispy spring roll
Marie P.

So excited to have an authentic thai spot in Riverstone! Upon entering, it's a smaller space that is beautifully decorated and we were immediately seated. The service is very quick and I loved our server; she was so kind and frequently checked in on us, ensuring we were enjoying our food. I went during their lunch special, which a fantastic deal you cannot beat. You choose from a list of entrees with your protein and it comes with the soup of the day and a crispy vegetable roll. We did the chicken pad thai (no spice because I'm weak) and panang curry with chicken (default medium spicy). We also ordered a fresh limemade. For the lunch portions, they are still extremely filling and leave you stuffed! The pad thai with chicken had the perfect flavor (not too sour or sweet) and even with no spice, it did not come at the expense of flavor. The panang curry was served with rice in the shape of a heart (so cute) and had great flavor! The default medium spicy has a perfect amount of kick to it (too spicy for me, but my boyfriend loved it). We were also given a chili sauce on the side that the server recommended. A few drops was soo spicy but the good kind! The flavor was amazing paired with the curry. We also ordered a fresh limemade and were able to watch her make it in the kitchen - it is indeed freshly squeezed and refreshing! All the food was 10/10 and I will definitely be returning to try other dishes!

Panang Curry
Marian G.

This is a very small restaurant in the river stone area of Sugarland. The service is fast and all the servers are friendly and helpful. We love it. Our appetizer was curry puff and the roti with curry. Delicious. Hubby had the panang curry and I had the red curry, both with a 3 spice level. So so so good. For sure it rivals the nines. We will definitely be back.

Pad Se-Iew
Mark L.

I wanted to try this place hoping for a solid Thai meal, but overall it was pretty underwhelming. I ordered a Thai iced tea that never made it to the table, and the food took a really long time to come out. I got the Pad See Ew - flavor-wise it was okay, but not as flavorful as a classic Thai spot. Nothing was particularly wrong with it, it just didn't really stand out. I also ended up finding a hair in my food, which I don't think was supposed to come with. Service left a little to be desired overall, between the missing drink and the long wait. Food it'self was barely alright. I probably won't be coming back.

Chicken Satay (5)
Hayley F.

A small Thai restaurant that sells authentic Thai food. The restaurant is decorated simply but beautifully. They have lunch menu items that are reasonably priced. Their regular menu features curries, vegetable entrees, soups, and salads among others. I had the chicken satay and fried tofu as appetizers. The chicken satays were tender inside and went well with the peanut sauce. The fried tofu was made with rice flour, thus the texture was soft and smooth. For entree, I had the Pad Thai which was flavorful. The crispy garlic chicken lunch special was plentiful. Staff was friendly and polite.

Red Curry  Rice

So we went to this amazing Thai restaurant. The food is beyond tantalizing. Everything tasted excellent, fresh and prepared with care & authentic Thai flavor. They had all my favorites and then some. We ordered veggie curry puff, satay, egg fried rice, red curry and pad Thai. No crumbs were left! We will be back! Also the severs were super nice and had prompt attentive service. They kept our drinks filled and opened the door for us.

Papaya salad
Victoria E.

We got seated fast. But another group who came after us got their orders taken before us. Then the waitress (one and only in the restaurant) is so unfocused, that when we start giving our orders, she tells us to wait, gets interrupted with seating new guest. Ordered the following 1. Tom yum. Have to add $2 to make it creamy. Asked if they can place less chicken. Answer is sorry they cannot. The soup came to the table just a degree above tap! In short, it's just Luke warm! 2. Papaya salad Came To our table with lots of the vegetables hanging outside the plate and touching the table. The salad is so soupy! So sloppy presentation. 3. Shrimp pad Thai. Not impressive 4. Chicken with asparagus. The last dish. Came so late. 5. The glass water pitcher on our table. Leaking water on the table. When we inspected, the neck of the pitcher has cracks. This restaurant is still using to serve water in it. We were not charged for the papaya salad. Will not come back to this horrible restaurant.

We heard about this place when we last ate at Morningside Thai. This is part of their family. We loved Arun. The Lunch menu is offered on Saturday from 2 to 2:30 pm so I jumped on the chicken pad thai which came with a crispy vegetable egg roll and a cup of the soup of the day....vegetable....all amazing. My wife got a cup of wonton soup, some baby beef egg rolls and some crisp tempura shrimp....more amazing, we shared everything. We even enjoyed a couple iced tea drinks. This is not near our neighborhood but it was well worth the drive. Super friendly people and tasty food.

Arun Thai Kitchen pleasantly surprised me. My friend and I both love Thai food and we each have different places we consider our "go-to's," but the other day we decided to branch out. I'm not sure exactly when Arun Thai Kitchen opened, but we had each noticed it for the first time recently and decided to give it a go. First off, the restaurant is very well decorated. Whoever was in charge of the decor deserves some recognition because it is so cute and vibey in there! They even have Jellycats! The place feels modern, but homey. My friend and I couldn't stop commenting on the decorations! Then there was the food! The menu was extensive with incredible options throughout. I went with the Pad Se-lew, which was the same as Pad See Ew from my usual Thai place. The dish was flavorful, but could've been spicier in my opinion. Next time I'll ask for more spice. I requested only broccoli, although the dish typically includes carrots as well. It was enjoyable and I had enough for leftovers! The service was excellent. My friend ordered the Tom Kha soup and it came with very little broth. My friend pretty much only ate the broth and when our waitress came by with our main dishes, she told us to always request what we want because they want us to enjoy our food. She said we could ask for more broth next time. Her attentiveness and willingness to accept requests was very sweet. I appreciate it when places don't make you feel bad for making requests. Our waitress was great! I will say, though, it took a while for the food to come out. Maybe I was just hungry, but we did wait for a while before eating. Arun Thai Kitchen is a place I would certainly visit again. It's a great spot for a friend date (or a date date)! I also noticed a ton of pick up orders being retrieved while we were there so that could be a good option, too. Yum!

Basil Fried Rice
Charity Brittain J.

Amazing every single week. We come here all be time. It's SO good. Great service and atmosphere!!

Pad Kee Mao (Drunken)
Seema K.

Another addition to Thai cuisine in our neighborhood. Good in a way as we don't have to drive to Galleria area anymore for Thai food! However, this is a very casual restaurant, has definitely room to grow as this Suburb is full of Asian population. Food was fine, though had read great reviews that tempted me to try. Service was average, as it was less welcoming even at 8:15 PM, when restaurant closes at 9pm, hope they welcome guests with equal enthusiasm, especially being new in the neighborhood for making repeat customers. Let see how it picks up, so will definitely try one more time!

They even have great crispy garlic lunch prices!!
Nicole C.

We have been coming to Arun for about 6 months. It is our favorite. They have great crispy garlic chicken and pad kemao. Everyone is so kind and the service is always top notch. Please come try. Support local businesses!!! Thank you Noryi!! The best!!

Jill Scott Concert, Part 2 Houston…read more Two weeks ago, we came to Houston for the Jill Scott concert, only to arrive and find out the concert had been canceled because Jill Scott had COVID. So, two weeks later, we found ourselves back in Houston, determined to finally see Jill! After checking into our hotel, we decided to walk around and grab a drink. We spotted Thai's Thumbz, this cute little spot, and decided to pop in. During the day, they focus on seated dining, so there wasn't really any room for chairs at the bar. No problem, we grabbed a table and ordered drinks. I had the lychee martini, and my friend ordered a gimlet with Bombay Gin. First, the location is SO cute. There's greenery outside, along with light-up signage that practically screams, "Take a photo here!" But it was soo hot. The inside is just as beautiful, with gorgeous place settings, wicker fixtures, greenery and flowers hanging from the ceiling, and thoughtful decor throughout. The drinks were artfully crafted and delicious. My lychee martini was perfection. It wasn't overly sweet, which I loved, and it totally matched the vibe we were going for. (girls trip!) We didn't order food this time, but everything coming out of the kitchen looked fresh, smelled amazing, and looked seriously delicious. I definitely want to come back and try the food. The waiter was attentive and always nearby without being overbearing. Thai's Thumbz would be such a cute spot for a date night, birthday celebration, or happy hour with friends. If I lived in the area, I'd definitely return for the food and, of course, another lychee martini.

Thai Thumbz is a casual Thai restaurant in Sugar Land Town Center with a great Thai-inspired vibe…read morebut below average food. I ordered a Beef Panang Curry and a Sweet Sticky Rice with Fresh Mango. The curry itself was overall decent with extremely tender beef and a strong thai basil-forward flavor. It however, lacked the rich and nutty depth that I would typically expect from this curry. The rice, however was unacceptably overcooked and gelatinous. Individual grains of rice were virtually indistinguishable leading to an unpleasant mouthfeel. I was very excited to try the Mango Sticky Rice (one of my favorite desserts), but it unfortunately did not live up to my expectations. The mangoes were impressively sweet and tender despite being out of season, however the sticky rice lacked the classic salty and coconut flavor and was inconsistently cooked. Some of the grains were hard, while others were appropriately cooked making for an subpar experience. Furthermore the coconut cream used in the dish was much thicker than compared to what I've had in the past, which I believe makes for a less cohesive bite. While the food was below average, I believe this restaurant has potential given its warm ambiance, aesthetically pleasing Thai-inspired decor, and prime location with plenty of garage parking. The staff was very friendly when I visited and attentively checked up on my party throughout the meal. Overall, I would only revisit Thai Thumbz if they addressed my concerns with the consistency of their foods, especially their rice (which arguably is one of the main components of many of their dishes).

I finally found a Thai place to replace my old favorites that went out of business (Patu and…read moreSawadee). I went to this little café in Sugarland after an appointment. It's tucked away in a new strip of shops and restaurants near the Chuy's and the Cornelius Nursery. The restaurant is cute and spacious and the staff is friendly and attentive without being annoying. The music is a little loud, but not too bad. The food is fantastic. I ordered my three favorites, paad Thai, Drunken Noodles, and massaman curry, hoping at least one would be good. To my surprise, all the were excellent. I ordered the creme brunette for dessert, and it was sublime. The texture was velvety and the caramelization crunchy and tasted like roasted marshmallows. It's served warm, which is different than I'm used to, but it works. I highly recommend this café. I was the only customer at 3 pm, when I arrived, but people began showing up closer to 4 pm. They have a happy hour for appetizers. There is ample parking, as well.

Done well Medium Panang Curry (4/5) - solid curry, a bit on the saltier side but great to take home leftovers after a bit of dilution. Forgot to take photos but trust it matches the pics on Yelp!

after trying thai food all over the city, ive officially crowned naha thai the undisputable goat…read more it just keeps getting better ive come to love their stir fry entrees, with the spicy thai basil being a new favorite. some of my other go-tos are the crying tiger (duh), red curry (obv), and drunken noodles for sure. this is one of the only places ive tried where the spice levels are accurate. when i order spicy, it is ACTUALLY spicy, and nothing is unnecessarily sweet nor watered down and i swear they give you SO SO SO much protein that i can barely see the noodles and veggies underneath it all (in the best way possible). the portions are seriously generous, esp for the price quality and flavor the owner is also so incredibly friendly and always makes us feel welcome. naha thai has earned my loyalty forever

There were lots of customers in the restaurant already. However we were still served quickly and the food we ordered came out fresh and quick. I ordered some of my favorites like pad Thai, Thai tea, spicy eggplant. They are all very delicious and yummy. I want to highlight the spicy fish. This was my first time ordering it and definitely added to one of my favorites. The fish was so crispy, so fakey and when paired with their cream curry it was so delicious. The restaurant has plenary of seating and great for big and small families.

Food: Roti - 10/10 it's delicious, the best we had compared to other places. Crispy roti and yummy sweet coconut yellow curry is a good appetizer to start your Thai food journey Basil Thai fried rice with chicken - 9/10, the taste is on the sweeter side and a tad oily for my taste. However, still pretty legit. Add on citrus to cut down the sweetness and will be delicious. Or eating with fermented radish will complement this dish. Khao soi braised beef - 10/10, this dish grew on you. It comes with 2 noodles texture - crispy and yellow egg noodle, braised beef is good quality tender beef, kinda like from beef stew, spicy curry sauce taste on point and made you crave for more. Overall, we are glad to try out this place and will plan to come back when we stop by Sugarland.
