We went here based on previous reviews, and were not disappointed! The fried spring rolls were amazing, and my husband loved the pad Thai. Excellent service, highly recommend! read more

Ehh..Can't expect good Thai food in Pahrump. Maybe I'm spoiled from the big cities like LA, but eek, I would not come back here for the food Service was fine, portions are good, cost is not bad. But taste ain't there. There's like one server, one cleaner, and one cook. You gotta be cautious when you go to an asian spot with no asians inside. I mean population of Pahrump doesn't have many asians, but still. My so got the Pad See Ew and It was ewww. Would not get again. I got the Rad Nah Mee Krobe, which is like a gravy over fried noodles. It was quite salty and the noodles were way too crispy and it just didn't taste right. If you just want to come here and get full, it's okay... but if you're expecting authentic Thai food. I wouldn't bother. read more

Very good food especially for Pahrump. Have had the Red Curry with chicken and shrimp with #6 on heat rating they go 1-10 . Also has had Pad See Ew and Pad Kee Mao also very good. Certainly the very best of Pahrump saves a trip to Las Vegas read more

Chatthai Bistro - Thai Near Me - Pahrump, Nevada

Some of the best Thai food I've ever had, and I've been having Thai food for decades! I ordered Pad Thai with Tofu and the Thai-style mango salad with Sticky Rice on the side to-go. Everything was made completely fresh to order, with good attention to the spice level. Portions were generous, easily enough to feed two or three people. Service was extremely friendly and helpful. I didn't dine in but the ambiance was relaxing and comfortable. Free parking in the lot. read more

Seriously, give the one and only server (Lottie?) for the entire restaurant a raise... She is a superstar, and continues to power through the craziest times by herself AND with a smile on her face. I felt bad for the workload she has between being the host, server, bartender AND food runner for the ENTIRE restaurant. What a high stress environment... I was even commenting that I wouldn't be able to do it.. If she walked out, nothing would have gotten done. I do think she needs a little more support; customers were walking out due to long wait times, but it's expected having one server to bartend, host, run food, take orders, and close out checks for about 15 or so tables. There were two guys in the kitchen, and one was yelling expletives because the other Chef must have made a mistake. We could clearly hear it out as customers, which was pretty unprofessional. However, despite the chaos of one server/bartender/host/busser and the cursing kitchen staff, the food was pretty good here. We got a shrimp curry, fried tofu, chicken satay, and a pad thai. The curry was delicious and the walnuts were a nice surprise. The food was worth it for us because we ended up not waiting long, but the family before us walked out for the long wait. read more

Salty. Suggest you avoid. No Asian cook or staff in Thai bistro. Huh? Server was wonderful & first-rate. But food was Thai only in that the plate of salty fried rice came with 2 lime wedges and some cilantro garnish. Flavorless & Salty. We ate about 1/3rd of the plate and left. No to-go box. waste of time. read more

Never disappointed, the food is always great, the service is always friendly and good.

I would give Chatthai a solid 3.5 stars but not quite there yet to give it 4 stars. It is probably the best, homemade, fresh food in Pahrump (amongst the fast food/fast casual options). We came on a Friday night (day after Xmas) around 6:30pm and they were slammed. We were probably part of the incoming dinner crowd that left Death Valley. Sadly, the restaurant staff miscalculated and sent their other chef home when it was dead between 3-6pm. They were left with 3 staff (chef, server who did everything (who was also the backup cook, hostess, bartender, answered phones/take-out order person, table busser) and a helper (who was helpful but the server had to tell him what to do so it was hard on the server to keep stopping and manage him.). Everyone was definitely under high stress. Instead of waiting for a table, we asked to sit at their small bar area (perfect for our party of 3!). As expected, our food took awhile to come but we chilled at the bar finding entertainment in overhearing the frustrated comments from the server (we felt so badly for her as she was definitely overwhelmed!)! Food had Thai "flavors" but definitely not as authentic. Wonton soup (4.5/5) - fresh ingredients, can easily serve 1 person as a meal or 2-4 as a side; Mixed veggie stirfry with beef (4/5)- beef was tender, flavorful sauce, fresh veggies; Yellow curry w/chicken (4/5)- creamy, curry flavor, tender chicken; Pad see Ew (3/5)- very heavy-handed on the sweet soy sauce (noodles were dark brown), a small handful of green Chinese broccoli and sliced carrots. Added crispy pork belly for extra charge- pork belly was cut into different sizes so some were cut thin and was too over crisped so was kinda hard and jerkeyed. Probably better with beef or chicken. We left a 25% tip for our server, not because the food or service was phenomenal, but it was all about her effort under the circumstances. But also, she had mentioned 3 tables that left before us did not leave a tip at all (which is f'ed up!)! I would understand to not tip if the server was rude and lazy but the 3 staff did the best they could under extreme pressure! As we were finishing our meal, the chef/owner came from LV (an hour drive away) to help out. I would go back to Chatthai again for a hot, fresh meal (probably the best food in Pharump) after checking out Death Valley but not around dinnertime during a holiday break! read more

This is one of only a handful of places in Pahrump I feel like I can get "real food". Fresh and well prepared I'm always happy when I eat here. I order to go most of the time but the dine in area is intimate and cute also. read more

Really enjoyed our meal here. Food was fresh and high quality. Gluten free options are labeled on the menu.

I have been going here for years! I think they changed chefs. Our dinner was less than satisfactory. Which is not normal for here. If you changed chefs you need to train them better or get the original owner back cooking. Waitress was very friendly. read more

Have been here about 4 times now , never disappointed!! Awesome consistency In flavorful food. Food is freshly made and super hot which I love !! Great waitresses always so helpful and cheerful ! Nice and cozy , very clean . read more

Honestly, the highlight of our time in Pahrump and probably the best Thai we've had. My hubs continues to rave about it. We ordered our usual grub fare such as the Pad Thai with shrimp and Pad See Ew with crispy pork belly. I also got a Thai iced tea since we were on vacation. The pad Thai had generous portion of toppings. The shrimps were plump, the noodles were al dente and perfectly seasoned. No complaints and my husband cleared the plate without pause. My pad see ew was a big portion for me that I ended taking about half home. The crispy pork belly was the star here since they were fried to a chip consistency. The Thai tea was a bit meh since I thought it was too sweet for my liking. I would have preferred more tea flavor and less milky sweetness. Overall, I would definitely find myself a regular if I lived here or returned to the area. read more

Food is really delicious I recommend this place to family and friends. The service is awesome and warm hospitality..

Excellent Thai food. The flavors were right on. The waitress was really nice. Great place for a date night.

The food was good, the ambiance is pleasant and our server was very welcoming. We had the Gang Gai (red curry with chicken), Pad Thai and the Thai style omelette. The pad Thai was very different from what we have had before, it had a lot more spice with moderate turmeric, it was good though. The Thai omelette was also a bit different, but more oily with a hint of maple syrup, good but I personally would have liked something more spicier. Overall a good option to checkout. read more

Exterior and interior are clean and in good repair. Decorations are Thai-lite. Service was phenomenal! She knew the menu and provided great recommendations. The fried spring rolls are excellent. They said they are made in house. The shrimp pad Thai was excellent. The noodles were cooked correctly: they weren't one gelatinous mass. The Thai iced coffee was excellent. I highly recommend. read more

We discovered this little gem while on a road trip to Death Valley. The waitress, Lottie , whom people reference in the reviews is a one woman wonder. The food was delicious and fresh! Give it a try and you won't be disappointed. read more

I came here with my bestie right after Death Valley around 7:30pm. Not too busy on a Tuesday night, but it was only one person taking orders and cashiering, etc. Her name was Sharon and she's an amazing person. She's super nice and friendly, very hard working. I feel bad that she's the only one doing everything at the front of the house, helping taking orders, helping people with take outs orders, dropping our food to us. She does love her job, but I think an extra helper would make a difference especially with the holidays coming up soon. My bestie and I ordered, Pad See Eww and Yellow Curry. The food was delicious. The pad see ew is very flavorful, but it is a little bit too much on the soy. It was salty towards the end, so I think mixing with some of my bestie's rice helped with the saltiness. The yellow curry was also very good. Light weight creamy coconut flavor. I will definitely come back when I do visit Death Valley again or happened to be in the area. Thank you for such a great experience and don't work too hard Sharon! read more

The food is excellent. The lunch specials are a sample of many dishes. The Shu Mai is one of my favorite appetizers. The catfish is also a favorite. The service is fast and friendly. Lottie and Sharon have been there a long time and know their stuff. Chat owns the place and is the chef. Over the years, he has trained cooks to his high standards. We've been going there since it opened and we've never been disappointed. read more

Try the "mom" salad when if you don't usually eat Thai food, it's AMAZING. Friendly servers and attractive atmosphere good value

The food was incredibly delicious. Every dish was top notch, from the lollipop chicken, to the tom ka soup, and Penang beef was soooo good. Our server Laddy was very friendly and attentive. She made great suggestions for dishes. Definitely recommend this place!! Well done read more

We ordered pad see ew with pork, pad thai with chicken, and cashew chicken. The pad see ew noddle was okay with strong soy sauce flavor. Didn't care for the pad thai flavor. The cashew chicken tasted okay but the sauce was too liquidity. This restaurant has more Americanize flavored food. It lacks the bold authentic Thai flavors. read more

Hands down the most authentic Thai food around. Old family recipes really shine through with amazing flavor!

Food was amazing but the server, she was top notch. Very busy that night she was a one person show and made sure to help every table in a timely manner. read more

Fantastic Thai food. The service was fabulous. The place is small but great ambiance!

The food was excellent and the service was great. My party of 5 came in after a long hard day at the range. It became very busy and the hard working solo waitress was running and doing an awesome job at tending to every guest. This restaurant needs at least one more waitress/host. The PadPek spicy catfish curry was amazing! & worth the slight wait. The Sui Mai dumplings were very good! We went on a Friday evening so a popular Thai place should be busy. Try the food here! Prices were high, in my opinion, which is the reason for my 4 Star review. read more

Chatthai Bistro - Spicy Pad Pek with Catfish - Thai Near Me - Pahrump, Nevada

I was wasn't expecting much being in Pahrump but as soon as I walked in I was blown away. Walking up towards the bar what caught my eye was the colorful vegetables in the kitchen ready to be thrown into the wok that instantly made me hungry. I could not get over the sweet smell of basil and curry so I ordered the Pad Ped w/ Shrimp at level 6 and the Pad kanah level 6. The vegetables were as great as they looked and cooked perfectly and the meats were tender and juicy. I couldn't help myself and started slurping the curry off the plate I had. Don't forget to pair the food with the Thai Beer they have! The service was awesome as well and we had a great time chatting with the server. She made sure we were well taken care of. Shout out to the chef for the delicious food and we also saw he was training other chefs as well. Like I said, I wasn't expecting much but this place set the bar for Pahrump restaurants. I WILL be back hopefully sooner rather than later. I absolutely love this place. read more

One thing that stood out for me with this Thai restaurant is how generous their portions for all the items that we've ordered. Usually, if I know that we're having Thai food, I need to have a little bit of snack first so I'm not so hungry when it's time to eat This place however made me happy! The portions were big, the food tasted delicious, and the service was fast with most friendly server ever! If you are in Pahrump, this is a place you need to try. read more

We stopped by Chatthai Bistro after a full-day at Death Valley National Park. Coming from the Bay Area, we were a bit disappointed with the food. Granted, the Bay Area has a lot of Asian food choices so my opinion might be slightly biased. We got the Pad See Eww, Pad Thai (no peanuts), and Som Tum Lao (Lao Style Papaya Salad). Normally, Pad See Eww is a bit on the sweeter side but our dish had a strong soy sauce flavor (which is normally doesn't have). Additionally the Pad Thai tasted like they used ketchup and had a slightly sour after-taste. The Lao Style Papaya Salad was interesting and had more of a fish sauce taste so if that's your jam then get it. The silver linings were the portion sizes and our server. You can for sure buy one dish and share it between two people or pack half to-go if you each want to try something. Our server was so sweet, despite being the only one serving all the tables. She was considerable and attentive (as much as she could be). If I'm in the area again, I most likely will not be coming back. read more

Great food & service! Tom Kha was spot on; savory, spicy, and coconuty. Sticky rice-perfect. Pork lettuce wraps; bountiful and filled with flavors. Highly Recommend. read more

Fantastic food and service . Recommend the pad thai and bone broth soup. Good air-conditioning and the decor is so relaxing

This place has excellent food and essentially perfect service. Seriously this lady (Lottie or Lonnie) can single-handedly serve an entire restaurant with zero kinks while providing detailed service. I would have completely understood if she didn't give us the little after dinner strawberry snack thingies. But she did! Even though she was running around serving everybody else at the same time. She must be able to remember a dozen things in her brain at once. This woman could serve at the French Laundry. I'm not kidding. And the food! Delicious scrumptious awesomeness. I love the larb, I love the panang curry, I ESPECIALLY loved the steak salad ("10/10" as Lonnie/Lottie says!) I love the pad phet, and I love the grilled pork belly appetizer. Oh, and I love Chatthai! I haven't been to every restaurant in Pahrump, but I'll bet you $1000 this is basically the best (/only truly decent) restaurant in town. Chatthai could hold their own in a place with a big Asian population such as San Francisco, Seattle, etc. So good. read more

Love the Calamari Appetizer. We both had the Saki Shrimp with noodles. It's the best. Lottie is a great server.

Not sure how this is has 4.5 star. I called and placed an order for a pad Thai with tofu and a ton yum soup with tofu to go. The girl who answered the phone was friendly and provided my total. She said my order would be ready in 15 minutes. When I arrived I was greeted and the staff were friendly and efficient. It cost me $33 for the two items. When I got back to where I was staying I was very disappointed. Instead of Tom yum soup I received a wonton soup which I could not eat due to being vegetarian. The pad Thai had a good flavor and the tofu was fried which was yummy. The entire dish was sitting in oil so I just ate the top of the dish. I would come back here for the service but definitely not for the food. read more

Great food, quick, and the waitress was amazing. We ate here after a day trip to Death Valley. The place was pretty full when we arrived around 6 and was packed with more people waiting when we left. I had the red curry which was great. The waitress deserves a special thanks. She worked the whole floor by herself, including giving people refills and answering the phone and she still managed to give every table enough attention. read more

This is the best spot in town... , Did the lunch take out special (so worth it) and was genuinely surprised, as someone who just moved back a month ago. 10/10 it's cozy, not the best for large groups. Amazing for 2 or 4 people, very much cozy! read more
