Fantastic food here. Best crab fried rice I have had in the Austin area. My fiancé typically gets their beef pad Thai and also loves it. We typically order delivery through an app but have ate inside once and it was a pleasant evening. Can't rave enough about the crab fried rice, so good and flavorful. We typically order from here about once a month and will continue to do so! read more

So happy to have a new Thai restaurant nearby that's easily comparable to the other highly rated Thai restaurants in Austin! I've tried about 7-8 different dishes so far, the best of them include the pad kee mao and the pad thai. I might enjoy this Pad Thai more than Sip Saam Thai's pad thai which has been our favorite for years. The other dishes haven't really stood out as much, all the different types of fried rice entrees lack a depth of flavor, it's almost a little plain tasting. Never had an issue with takeout or dining in, they're great at accommodating requests and they're all pretty nice! With that said, the pad kee mao and paid thai are done so phenomenally that it overlooks any of the downsides of the other dishes. read more

One of the best Thai foods I've had in a very long time, tastes very authentic and tastes absolutely delicious. I will come back again! We live in Waco but well worth the drive for good food! read more

BarnYen By Thaispice - Thai Near Me - Pflugerville, Texas

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I've been to in both Austin and the Bay Area. The food is authentically prepared with a lot of care. We came as a party of six. Everything was flavorful, nuanced, and fresh. It's going to be hard to go to another Thai restaurant here in Austin. read more

Takeout via LunchDrop and HOME RUN! So delicious green curry, generous portion of rice, GREAT packaging (paper bag and no leaks!) perfect level of spice and great tofu! My first experience with BarnYen but it won't be the last!! Sorry about the photo - I'm a teacher, I was hungry and we don't get much time for lunch. Go figure. read more

I hope they never ever ever change what they're doing. Because whatever it is, it is RIGHT. Their food is so good, everything I've had has been wonderful. Highly recommend the yellow curry, the gyoza and the dumpling soup. Pineapple fried rice is also delish! read more

Since I had advanced notice that we were coming here, I decided to read the almost 40 reviews prior to our arrival. Most yelpers were pretty pleased with the offerings, but there were complaints about price and portions. There is plenty of parking and there are several other businesses in the immediate area. To be honest, I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to Thai food so I'll add a few observations that others may have missed. For starters, they do have a decent wine list which is priced at about 2 1/2 times retail along with some decent sakes and a couple of craft beers. The interior is clean and modern with about a dozen tables to sit at. There's a couple of flat screens and Asian pop music playing overhead. Everyone gets a golden fork wrapped in a paper napkin. We started with the spring rolls which were delightfully fresh and coconut shrimp which were hot and tender. I had the teriyaki chicken and got some chili hot sauce to kick the heat up a notch. My meal came with a side of white rice, they do not have a brown rice option. The wife had fried rice with basil and chicken which was the perfect fusion of flavors. I will agree with some yelpers that the food is a little bit expensive, but the portions were sizable. For some reason, they were out of three of their four desserts. When it's time to settle up with the credit card, they will bring you the handheld device with the tip information on display. Plenty of photos included. read more

I've never dined in here, but ordered my food to go. The food was wonderfully delicious. So delicious that I ordered food again two days later. I've never had Thai food, but I'm hooked now. The noodles and spice were really good. I tried the egg rolls too and they were okay. read more

We've previously had delivery multiple times from BarnYen, and we experienced the restaurant for the fist time last night. We experienced dinner during an extremely busy time and the experience was nice. The place was buzzing with energy and people were enjoying their experience as well. The food was great, as usual! read more

My favorite Thai restaurant was one I've been going to for about two years now in cedar park. I didn't think I could find anywhere else that had better Thai food but this place just proved me wrong! The pineapple fried rice was incredible as well as the pad see Ew and the red curry. I couldnt help but smile after taking the first bite of the red curry. I live about 50 minutes from here but I'm willing to make the drive to eat here again soon! Bring your friends and family. I'm sure they'll enjoy eating here. read more

I was craving Padthai after coming back from Thailand and wanting a change. BarnYen did a great job at making Padthai. We also ordered papaya salad with anchovy sauce and it definitely was a hit!!! read more

Excellent Thai food! This was our first visit, so we tried several menu items. All were excellent-pad Thai, Taste of Ginger- vegetables with tofu, soft spring rolls and mango with sticky rice (which was the only one I remembered to photograph!). It is impossible to tell driving by this very small strip mall that such an amazing Thai restaurant is there. Definitely worth a try. read more

Really fire Thai spot. If I hadn't already found my #1 favorite thai restaurant (Too Thai in Carrollton, TX) this would've been it. But every different dish had such good flavor. The khao soii curry was really tasty and the chicken and crispy egg noodles added a nice texture with everything else. The pad ga pow was very flavorful and cooked very well. Added some of it into the curry from the khao soii and had a nice combo meal. The rice and pad Thai were solid but nothing crazy. Also got a nice Thai tea to add a little sweetness before all of it so overall a great eating experience. read more

The food is incredible here. The Tom Ka is rich and creamy. The taste of ginger is flavorful with fresh vegetables and thin, tender chicken. The basil fried rice, ordered very spicy, came with pieces of fresh jalapeño. Overall a wonderful meal. The food was slow to be served, but that was because of a robust takeout rush right as we arrived. It's a little place, but clean and tastefully decorated. read more

Having a hankering for some good Thai food after moving to the Austin area last week, we decided to try BarnYen as it was recommended by my wife's nail technician. We were not disappointed. I spent 6+ years of my childhood in Thailand (1966-1972) and return there often. Speaking Thai is still something I have retained after all these years, and any time we visit a Thai restaurant, I make sure to speak Thai to any of the servers or cooks so they know I absolutely understand what good Thai food is. The servers at BarnYen were very attentive, friendly, and informative. We decided on an appetizer of fresh spring rolls, I opted for the Pad Krapow with chicken, and my wife went to her favorite; chicken pad Thai. Below are my ratings: - Fresh spring rolls 9.5/10. The rolls were soft, fresh, and served with a very tasty peanut sauce. The only reason I don't give them a 10 is that the only options for protein were tofu or chicken (no shrimp). I suggest they add a shrimp option, even if they have to up charge for it (I would have gladly paid). Forgot to take a pic of these as we dove right in to taste them... - Pad Krapow 9.5/10. This is some of the tastiest and flavorful Krapow that I have had in a U.S. based Thai restaurant. A large portion, full of chopped chicken, plenty of basil flavor, and topped with a perfectly cooked fried egg. I really liked the accompanying thick slices of cucumber, fish sauce and chili sauce, and a very nice bunch of fried basil. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is that it was missing chopped long beans (a very traditional element of Krapow). I really like the fact that they didn't load the dish up with bell peppers, carrots, or onions as I have experienced at other Thai restaurants. Bottom line - add some chopped long beans and you'll have a perfect version of Pad Krapow! - Pad Thai 9/10. For anyone who has tasted the unique pad Thai flavor that comes from a Bangkok street food vendor's wok, you know what I mean when I refer to that "smoky, slightly sweet" flavor. BarnYen comes very close to replicating that flavor. The serving size was large, included green onions, and the taste was wonderful (but a bit too sweet). I did notice that a thin noodle was used instead of the wider version typically used, which caused the texture to be slightly gummy, and bean sprouts were apparently added during cooking which caused them to become limp and soft. Typically fresh bean sprouts should be added as a garnish along with crushed peanuts, and a slice of lime (ours included the lime and peanuts). Overall, I highly recommend BarnYen. The restaurant is located in a smaller suite in a strip mall, and is very tastefully decorated. Do yourself a favor and stop in for some great Thai food! Oh, and yes, they have beer and wine available as well. read more

We ordered quite a few dishes from BarnYen. I enjoyed some of the food. The prices were quite high. - crab fried rice was very "fishy." I did not enjoy it. - appetizer sampler - came with a lot of different dipping sauces which eas impressive but they were all pretty lackluster. The items were fine. They looked better than they tasted. It's what our 8 year old ate as his meal. -Pad Thai was authentic tasting. It had a sour punch from tamarind (I presume) - Pad Kee Mow - just as they should be. No complaints. - Tiger Cry Steak - the sauce was great. The steak, though cooked perfectly, easily quite chewy. It's strip I think. It would be way better with ribeye. I wouldn't get this again -the curry with pork rib. The ribs were tender and the curry was delicious. I would recommend this dish. - crepe cake was unique. It had zero tea flavor in itself but the sauce that comes with it had the tea flavor. I didn't like it but my family did. - the sticky rice with mango was as it should be but it was $12. No joke. If you find my reviews and photos helpful please like them. read more

Just visited last night for take out grub - Barn Yen Thaispice slapped another grand slam with us! I had the Pad Kee Mao, the wife had the Pad Thai (both dishes served with chicken and medium spice) and both were "outta-sight"! The tase was dead on and we shared the crab fried rice and it's the OVERALL favorite of ours (and others as the reviews reflect). The 5-stars are well earned here. Try it for yourselves and you decide. read more

Food was delicious. It was a Sunday afternoon and we were a party of nine and were easily seated. Service staff was minimal but still served in good time. We were impressed. Everyone was very satisfied with their dishes. We all shared and were pleased. I would return again when I'm around this area. read more

Finally got around to trying BarnYen and should have tried it a lot sooner. Everything we ordered was delicious, and they will actually make your food spicy when requested. Been back since and will absolutely make this a regular stop. Great food at a fair price. read more

Food is always great and the service is top notch! And love that they have lots of gluten free options.

I was excited to finally have a Thai restaurant close to home, but never did I expect it to be so good. We arrived at 3:52 PM on a Tuesday not realizing they do not open until 4 pm for dinner, but they quickly let us in and greeted us cheerfully. The menu does not have a ton of items, which for me is a huge plus. The place is cuter than most strip mall Thai restaurants. We ordered the beef basil fried rice and the pork pad kee mao. Both were scrumptious and we ate every last bit of it. Service was amazing and the food came out quick. I have been daydreaming about that meal for the rest of the week. Can't wait to be back. read more

Went to try this restaurant since my wife wanted some Thai food. We ordered a few dishes to try: 1. Satay: 2/5 this feels like a lazy take on this appetizer. they took a chicken breast and cut it up and grill it. Seasoning is okay but I can taste the "smell of chicken" on it - meaning it wasn't cleaned enough/marinated properly 2. Pad se ewe: 3/5 portion is small for the price and hardly any noodles in it. Taste okay 3. Penang: 3/5 liked the thickness of the curry. Flavors could have more depth but not bad. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Overall, menu is small, flavors lacking authenticity , price is same for lunch and dinner with small portions read more

Outstanding food, service and atmosphere!! We had the papaya salad for an app: fresh, flavorful and delicious! For entree, we had the red curry and Tom Yum, both were the best we've had anywhere!

We will be back again, again and again. Highly recommend it to everyone! read more

Awesome meal! Great service and delicious food! Flavours were spot on and left us planning a repeat visit. Great spot for great food!

We have tried almost every item on the menu and have loved all of it. The pad see ewe is amazing and the teriyaki chicken is incredible (though a little pricey for what you get).

Second time here. First time left me thinking it was overpriced with small portions. Good reviews since meant I should try again. Walk in at 12:15 today. Greeted by a lady with an angry scowl. Seems annoyed I'm a party of 1. Seats me at the furthest back table near the bathroom. I proceed to be ignored for 15 mins, after which I got up and left. No need for me to try again. Chokdee is suffice and much nicer people. read more

Th food is delicious! The menu has multiple options and good deserts. The service was great too.
