    Boat Noodles!
    Eunhae H.

    There's always a reason why this place has a line out the door even before it opens. The food is phenomenal and totally worth every minute spent waiting in line. When you arrive, there's a kiosk for you to put your name down. For parties over 6, you'll have to check in with the host to be added to the list. I arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes before opening, and it took around 15-20 minutes after they opened to get seated, which wasn't as bad as I had expected. I wanted to order everything off the menu, but ended up sticking with a few of their signature dishes. We got the Massaman curry with skirt steak, Pad See Ew with shrimp, Boat Noodles, and Gai Todd Hat Yai. Everything we ordered was 10/10 for me. Each dish was flavor explosion. Starting with the Massaman curry - it was perfectly rich and creamy. The bread that came with the curry was warm and chewy - perfect for soaking up every last bit of all the delicious curry. The steak was cooked to perfection: tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful, making every bite absolutely satisfying. Another interesting dish for me was the Gai Todd Hat Yai, which is Chef Jenny's Hometown famous street food - the fried chicken and sticky rice. The chicken was perfectly fried and the flavor of the chicken was finger-licking good. The sticky rice was a nice side but I didn't end up finishing the rice because the star of the show here was the chicken. What was surprising delicious and the highlight for me was actually the Pad See Ew! The noodles had the perfect bouncy, chewy texture, and the sauce struck both the balance of sweet and savory - a combination that's surprisingly hard for me to find these days. The shrimp was so plump and succulent, making the dish even more satisfying. Talking about the ambiance, I felt like I was transported to Thailand (though I've never actually been). The walls were filled with photos, memorabilia, and eclectic decor that gave the restaurant a fun, tiki vibe. Service was great. Food was phenomenal. I am definitely coming back as a regular!

    Pad see ew (chicken)
    Lawrence M.

    I came here last month with 2 friends on a Wednesday evening, and we waited almost an hour long to be seated. Parking in the plaza was plentiful on the bright side. We first ate the pad see ew w/ chicken which was delicious, followed by the massaman and khao-soi. The food portions are generous, so I was quite happy with everything we ordered. The mango sticky rice had the most beautiful presentation I've seen in a mango sticky rice dish, and I would definitely order that again! The interior of the restaurant is a bit small, with the bathroom awkwardly located in the far back corner. Given how popular and successful Hanuman has become, I feel like there should be more space for customers so that the wait time can also be cut shorter. If I had to compare Hanuman to another Thai restaurant, I'd probably mention Manaao in Tustin. Can't wait to return and try other dishes!

    Ruk Na
    Sydney H.

    Tried this place with some friends and enjoyed it a lot! The wait is crazy as expected but it was well worth it. We were lucky to get a table inside, as many people were being seated on the outdoor deck by the parking lot where it was pretty sunny and crowded. The restaurant itself was a bit warm too. The Ruk Na was really beautiful and had a delicious lychee flavor! Super sweet and concentrated for my taste, but a great summer drink. Family style is the best way to order here. The pad see ew was delicious with tofu - the portion was huge and I loved that it came with a side of chili fish sauce. The khao soi was also very delicious and rich with a good serving of chicken, beautifully presented! The crying tiger was just okay. Meat was very tender but the portion was very small for the price, and I wish that there was a jaew sauce to dip it in, it was on the blander side for me. But the Massaman curry with hangar steak was sooo good - cooked a beautiful medium rare and served with roti that was perfectly flaky and crispy. The mango sticky rice is also very pretty. The sticky rice was warm and soft with toasted coconut on top. Although the mango was very beautifully presented, I feel that the slices were a little too thin. A thicker cut would allow the taste of the mango to come through better, but since the slices were so thin I felt like it didn't taste like too much, if that makes sense. But soooo pretty nonetheless. Overall, great spot and would love to come again!

    Front Entrance with Waiting area at coned Parking lot

    Nice and small Thai Street eatery near John Wayne OC airport. Always crowded and have long waitlist. In the evening, they use the patios and have quit few tables. We came couple time. Even with Yelp Waitlist, the waiting time is at least 1 hour plus! Located in a small strip mall next to Ayres Hotel. Next to it is a Japanese restaurant. Same owner. They offer their menu at Hanuman. Once seated, service was fast. Food is not bad. Not your typical Thai taste. Depends on your taste bud. Some has the chef's interpretation. Nice plating. Taste is hit and miss with the combination. The family loves the fried chicken, not too much on sticky rice. Same with the curry sauce. Nice steak but the roti is not dry. Interesting combination with fresh tasty Yellowtail ceviche with Shrimp crackers. Will try different menu next time.

    This was my second visit because I was so wowed by their Kha Soi on my last visit. This time, unfortunately, we were a bit underwhelmed. The portions were small and the taste was just "ok." We've been indulging in a lot of Thai and the wow factor just wasn't there. Solid food, good service, but didn't win me over this time around.

    Pad see ew
    Kat S.

    Wow! This place is good. We ordered Pad See Ew, Khao Soi, Hanuman Fried rice and crying tiger. Pad see ew is good! I love the smoky taste to it, the Khao Soi is so creamy and that chicken is huge! Hanuman Fried rice is packed with meat and it tastes good too! The crying tiger, I was a bit surprised with how small the portion is despite it's price though it's an appetizer, I just thought it would be a little bit more. Service is good, they were very accomodating and friendly. We have our dog so we decided to seat outside and they even gave my dog a water bowl. Inside dining is a bit small, so it's good that they have a couple of outdoor seats as well. We came around 3pm so there's not that much people yet, but everyone seems happy with their food and I could hear them compliment their food. Will definitely be back to try other food on their menu!

    Chicken Wings + Sticky Rice
    Kaia H.

    This place is so good, but just be prepared because the wait is always long. I genuinely don't even know what a good time to come is because every time I've gone, there's still been a bit of a wait. But honestly, the food is good enough that it still feels worth it. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, which I liked, and our server was really nice and gave us a lot of recommendations, including a drink that I can't remember the name of but was actually really good. Overall, definitely a spot I'd come back to, I'd just mentally prepare for the wait first.

    Jay W.

    This place gets super packed. Reminds me of a hipster restaurant, lots of young people. The service is amazing. Everything we got was amazing. The chicken wings to start were super delicious. I was impressed how crispy and juicy it was as well as flavors. The rice with the sauce that comes with it is addicting. 4.8/5. The Pad See Ew was probably one of the best in Costa Mesa. It had so much flavor it was ridiculous. 5/5. The haunaman fried rice (I think that's how you spell it) was next tier. The sweet sausage and umami flavors of the dish it was gone quick. 5/5. The pad Thai was sus at first. They don't do chicken. Just tofu and shrimp. I guess that's the "authentic" way of making it back in the motherland. I got it anyways and it did not disappoint. So good. 4.9/5. Overall I would come back here. You just need to make reservations because this place gets packed fast and people come in crowds.

    fried chicken
    Catherine T.

    very long wait for very subpar food. the wait on a weekday was almost an hour because the restaurant is very small. *thai fried chicken (5/5)- the only dish that was decent. the fried chicken is crispy and perfectly flavorful *khao soi (2/5) - there aren't a lot of thai places that have khao soi so i was really looking forward to trying this. after having amazing khao soi in thailand, i feel like this is extremely unflavored with a weak curry flavor. *massaman curry (2/5) - similar case here with a lack of curry flavor in the curry *thai fried rice (3/5) - average thai fried rice, but i've lowkey had better at other everyday thai places *shrimp pad thai (1/5) - this had a super weird fishy flavor that i was not a fan of. it tasted really off from what im used to for this dish *pad see ew (2/5) - not bad but it was WAY too over flavored, it tasted so salty and overwhelming

    Pad See Eew
    Mary Anne W.

    Busy during the evening, definitely prepare to wait long period of time just to get a table. Luckily, we waited 20 minutes so it was not too. They have inside and outside seating. We were fortunate to get a table outside and they provide heaters by the table. Wow!! The food was impeccable, the decoration on the food was nicely done, but the plates were pretty big. We barely had room on the table. We had to minimize what we had because we did not have room for a party of 6. The Moshi drinks were tasty, not too overly sweet. The staff members were welcoming. Tons of parking.

    Shrimp Pad se Ew
    Cynthia M.

    One of my favorite places for Thai fusion. Beautiful presentation with great flavors. It is a very small restaurant and it gets packed quick!! They also own the restaurant next door which is a Korean Japanese Thai fusion so you can choose between two menus which is cool.

    Panang curry
    Ethan N.

    This place gets pretty busy quickly so come a but earlier for some buffer. I came at 4pm and the place was being full but luckily no wait. I ordered the panang chicken curry, the portion size was very filling and the taste was great. However it could have been hotter temperature wise. The fried chicken there is a must have and the sticky mango rice was great as well. Service was great and staff were friendly. Id come back, note parking does get full as well quickly...

    Pad See Ew with shrimp  Thai fried rice with pork
    Luke R.

    Best Thai spot I've found yet! The Massaman curry with hanger steak is a masterpiece, 10/10 flavor with perfectly cooked tender steak. The Pad See Ew with shrimp was excellent, and the Gai Tod Hat Yai fried chicken was flawlessly crispy and juicy. The Thai fried rice with pork was standard but good. My only letdown was they were out of mango sticky rice by the time we ordered, but the rest of the menu is delicious. Lots of parking; it's in a small shopping center. Service was quick and friendly, we were in and out of there in no time.

Ordered the shrimp Pad Thai which was still flavorful but the noodles tasted overcooked. Our table ordered three of them on accident, so when we tried to change the order to at least only two , they said we could not because they were already being made . So unfortunately we settled with three pad Thai plates of shrimp, nothing could be done it seems (and no one took a pic of those plates ) . Their pad see ew is great though. Their lowest level of spice is perfect for me ( I'm not big on hot/spicy) . You can order higher level if you'd like though. The crying tiger was ok, nothing stood out compared to others at different Thai restaurants, but still tasteful. Inside is a vibrant and modern noise vibe. When you arrive at the restaurant, there will be a check in process on an iPad. They do seem to get really busy, we were fortunate to have arrived right before it got busy which was around 12pm I was hoping staff there could be more helpful. Overall, they were friendly. Personally: not my favorite or in a hurry to go visit again.

So I was super excited when my friend recommended me go there for dinner. Now I had seen this place for a million years when I lived in Orange county and it had changed hands a while back. But I was so excited as it's probably one of the more beautiful restaurants that I've seen right off of Pacific Coast highway. They have valet parking in the front, and because Newport Beach is severely limited in their parking choices, it's best to take advantage of that. Walking into the place, it has a wonderful, warm inviting atmosphere. The people and servers are really helpful and very warm in the front. They definitely make good suggestions, so take advantage of their expertise. We ate a bunch of stuff. From the spring rolls, to the chicken set hey, too to Coconut milk soup to crying tiger, I was absolutely stuffed by the time dessert came around. My friend told me I had to try the Coconut ice cream, but I was leaning more towards to the Thai tea creme brulee. I said what the heck? Let's order both. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. I would give this place 10 Stars if I could but you will only allow five so let me say it here. This is definitely a 5 plus place. Bottom line? I will definitely be coming back here again. If you live anywhere near Newport Beach, you owe it to yourself to go to this place. Super delicious, super fun and very casual relaxed that experience.

Good flavor. Veggies spring rolls. This was okay. I'd prefer the regular spring rolls with meat. In all fairness, I would like to visit the restaurant in person for the actual dining-in experiment sometime. Foods always taste better dining in than take it to go.

Still on soft opening mode so the menu was somewhat limited. The lovely owner Bew is so sweet and we learned that several members of her family has been in the restaurant industry in SoCal for a long time (from San Diego to LA and now OC). We ordered the following: * Fish cakes for appetizer, love the sauce that came with it. * Holy Basil with Crispy Pork Belly. This was full of flavor, and really love the sauce and everything that came with it. Definitely scored high on craveability. The only request I had which I relayed to the owner is - the pork belly was a little on the tough side. I made suggestions for them to try to remedy that. * Pad Thai with Shrimp was on point. Hubs enjoyed and devoured it in no time. * Thai Tea and Green Tea were on point as well. They have desserts coming soon that we cannot wait to try. I forgot to take pics of the menu so I took screenshots of menu from their website. Would definitely be back to support Bew at Nai Tong. Go check them out!!!

The thai tea was creamy and rich and one of the better ones I've had compared to most thai spots in the area. The grilled pork neck was tender and juicy and the included dipping sauce added some extra sweetness. The portion size was also good and easy to share. The Kra Prao Crispy Duck was absolutely delicious and one of my favorite thai dishes I had. The crispy duck was crunchy and had good flavor and the sauce mixed with the peppers and the crispy fried egg on the side with the rice made for a filling plate! Overall, my friends and I had a great dinner here and I would highly recommend checking out Nai Tong if you are in the area and want some amazing Thai food! There's plenty of seating inside and it's well-lit and they just recently opened, so it isn't too busy right now.

While there are a few other spots in town that I would dub them supreme but for their offering, service, and ambiance, this is a great spot for business lunch, catch up, or family over delicious food. For this location, it is a bit small with limited seating. For large parties or families, you may have a longer wait time since tables need to be shuffled around. One of my favorite things to pair with our meal is their spice rack. If you are able to handle a bit of heat, ask for it and introduce the pickle chili to your dish. It elevates flavor with contrast quite well. Pad See Ew and Crab fried rice is what we ordered. The first visit had beef salad which paired great with the rest of the meal. Overall, stop by this location for good eats. FYI, parking can be tricky so be mindful about peak hours and carpool.

    This review is long overdue!…read more My co workers and I work nearby and have been coming here nearly every week since they opened (even during soft opening !) the food here is always so delicious some too dishes we enjoy is the eggplant Thai basil, pineapple fried rice, pad Thai, and Khao soi. The food is always fresh and tasty ! I have been to the Irvine location however and notice the flavor is different there :/ so while I live in Irvine and work in Newport I prefer the Newport location. The service is always friendly and with our weekly visits our server often knows what we are going to get (when it's just me and my boss we split the eggplant Thai basil with tofu and the pineapple fried rice) when it's our team tho we all get our own items or switch it up ! The environment is chill clean and relaxing and right by the beach which is cool! If you are looking for absolutely delicious Thai food hit up Siam Station! I should have taken pics the food was too good and I forgot to take a pic but next week!

    The consistency here is off - never quite sure what we're going to get. When it's good, it's…read moreamazing and the best restaurant around. When it's bad, like last night - I don't even want to take more than 2 bites. I ordered the cashew chicken yesterday, the sauce was clumpy and almost like glue? Instead of a nice smooth sauce that tastes good. Additionally; the veggies, chicken and cashews in the dish were scorched! It was burnt and still packed up to-go by the cook. There were also pretty minimal veggies in it. I get the cashew chicken because it was nice large slices of bell pepper and other veggies.....yesterday was small, soggy, overcooked little pieces of bell pepper.... No thank you

    My go to spot for take out Thai food (:…read more I always order the pat see ew with tofu & beef spice level 1. The food is always amazing and fresh. You can't forget how flavorful it always is! For dessert I always order the mango sticky rice. It's the perfect way to end your meal. Thanks for always making the best Thai food!

    I've been to this plaza a few times and have seen Hungry Boy Thai Cafe. After seeing how good their…read morereviews were, I finally decided to try it out! They have a fast casual set up where you order at the counter and when your food is ready, someone will bring it to your table. Their menu is pretty simple and straightforward. They have Stir Fries, Curry, Noodle Soups, and Soups, and you can choose the type of protein you want: veggies, tofu, chicken, beef, shrimp, bbq pork, chicken satay, or fried chicken, each at different price points. We got a Pad See Ew with Chicken, and it was tasty! There was a decent amount of broccoli in it. They also ask you what spice level you want. We ordered mild, and it had a slight kick to it. We also tried their new menu item, Thai Basil Eggplant. It comes with ground chicken, bell peppers, onions, and jasmine white rice. I ordered mild spice level as well, but it wasn't as spicy as the Pad See Ew. It was still very flavorful and definitely goes well with the rice. It came out piping hot! I would get this again!

    We stopped by to have a late lunch here. We ordered the "Crying Tiger" beef steak, shrimp pad thai…read moreand the Thai Basil with beef. All items tasted great with decent enough portion sizes. Although the waiter mentioned that there would be some spiciness to both beef dishes, I didn't find them spicy at all. Nevertheless, no complaints regarding the spiciness as the dishes tasted good. The pad thai was seasoned with just the right balance of sweetness and degree of tamarind flavor. The mango with coconut sticky rice and the coconut ice cream with fried bananas were also very tasty. I wish the portion sizes were bigger to the desserts. The staff members were very diligent in serving our table. There is parking in the back lot of the restaurant as it is in strip of businesses on a busy street.
