We started with shrimp eggrolls, which were wrappers rolled around shrimp and seemingly nothing more-4 for $12. I got the Thai beef salad, my go-to. It was fantastic. The meat was tender and flavorful and I had enough for two meals! Charlie had the trout in a garlic sauce and t was so yummy! The sauce was sweet and savory with veggies added on top of the fish. We had a slice of light and fresh coconut cake that was just delicious. The atmosphere was busy but not chaotic. All the waiters were attending to all the tables. Service was adequate. I can't wait to go back!

It was a very hefty portion and lasted a long time and had lots of vegetables in it. Tofu salad was good as well. The pad Thai was disappointing though, for a staple dish I was underwhelmed. The taste was bland and the noodles were overcooked. The lack of bean sprouts and green onions did not help either! It was also quite sweet

Of the many restaurants downtown, I especially appreciate Thai At Main Street's flexibility around serving large groups on relatively short notice. We came here on a Friday night (always busy in Durham). We called half an hour in advance for a group of 8 people, and by the time we arrived they had a table ready for us. The inside isn't large, but even though all of the tables were full, the volume was very reasonable. At our table of eight, we had no trouble hearing one another and conversed as a group. Service was prompt (even though the place was packed), and the food came out within 15-20 minutes. I got the Drunken Noodles, which I've had here before & always enjoy. My partner got the Pad See Ew, which was also phenomenal. Two in our party got the pineapple fried rice, which was a big hit (even with my slightly picky younger sister!). Overall, I recommend, especially for short-notice dinners, large groups, or anyone just craving some fresh, flat rice noodles (i can never get enough of those).

So, an hour and half wait was a let down for food that is not too far away from my house. When the food got here it smelled delicious. The appetizers came cold, which is a disappointment, but the soup, red curry, and drunken noodles were hot. The food was tasty. The coconut soup was a little thinner than I'm used to, but it had delicious flavor and a good kick. The spring rolls were delicious as well as their version of crab rangoon. The curry was tasty- a second to my favorite red curry from Sushi at the Park. Drunken noodles were tasty too! I'll order again for sure.

We arrived for lunch at 2 pm; they are open for lunch until 3. Fine. Except the server was pushy, obnoxious, and clearly trying to hustle us out the door the ENTIRE time we were ordering/eating (even though they seated two groups after they seated us!). The server was overbearing, barely spoke English (virtually incomprehensible, fast, and garbled), and hovered around the table trying to take plates when people were nowhere near finished. Perhaps the ******* server doesn't know that when you list a closing hour it does not mean you stampede guests out the door at one minute past that time??? I told him on the way out I'd leave a terrible review, and I'm a man of my word LOL. About the food--well, the Thai basil is mediocre with huge chunks of Perdue-type 'chicken' and not enough basil *or* onion; the red curry is sourish and rather vinegary; the mussaman curry is tasteless. The tom ka gai is watery with a very odd aftertaste. The Thai iced tea is reasonably good. LOL! DO NOT go to this restaurant--virtually any other Thai place in the Triangle is superior.

When I called about it, they told me to get a refund from DoorDash and when I reminded them that DoorDash had nothing to do with their shorting me, they told me they would issue a refund. The next day, I received a $5 refund from DoorDash, but the meal cost me $23.50. They've done this before so I don't think anyone should be ordering from them because they're unethical and regularly rip people off. What they need to understand is that while their food is good, it's not THAT good and they have plenty of competition from restaurants that are every bit as good and from whom I will order because I'll never order from Twisted Noodle again. They've stolen enough of my hard-earned money.

Do yourself a favor and order these rolls! For dinner, I had a tofu fried rice and my husband had a chicken stir fry, which both tasted so light and fresh! Definitely worth the visit!!

My friend is from that area of the world and on her recommendation we tried this new place in downtown Durham. It was terrific, what a find! The restaurant's unique handmade paintings on walls and other Philippino decor was very eclectic and cool. They had a hand painted mural of the famous Chef Anthony Bourdain Which was cool but he's from New York so I'll have to ask the owner about that next time I come back. Lol The place was packed and we were walk ins but the owner was at the reception desk and told us to wait and she might be able to find us a table. We were in luck and she directed us to the back room. The server was extremely knowledgeable about all the dishes. Since I had my Philippino friend along she told us what she liked as well as the helpful server. The food was delicious and had a beautiful presentation. What I ate I can't pronounce so look at my pics of the menu ;) I had a bowl w beef filet, onions, tomatoes, cucumber lining the bowl w Jasmine rice and a fried egg on top. My friend had oxtail and the other had an appetizer of Lumplang Shanghai and entre of Pancit Behon, all food was extraordinary and large portions. No doubt that was why the place was packed! It's a great place in downtown Durham to check out next time you want to have some adventurous dining. Kain Po Tayo! (Enjoy your meal!)

At least in terms of flavor. I had seen this place before but with a 3.9 I was not that excited. I then heard from two very different people who said it was their favorite around here. I was stunned. So we have it a try. What a treat. We had the seafood pad thai (have never tried that!) and thought the flavor was wonderful. We also had the pad wan sen which was very solid. Both is us were two thumbs up. The price was about what you would expect--maybe a little on the high side for portion size. But welcome to shrinkflation. It was also seafood which is always a bit more it was fair. The food was prepared quickly and was hot on pickup. The parking lot is a little tight and it is easy to miss it if you don't look carefully but it was cute inside. We might have to eat there next time. Worth a trip if you live in the area for sure. It will likely be our new regular spot.

There's not a ton of seating, but we got a table quickly. The service was quick, and even though the place was small, it felt more cozy than cramped. I liked having the menu on the wall! They had two vegan options, and my partner & I both got the Biang Biang noodles. It was good, and perhaps even better the next day (the serving was big enough that I couldn't finish it). My sister got the Jjajiang Mian & absolutely loved it. This was a very positive experience, but not mindblowing--I think that the hype around the "M" restaurants perhaps raised my expectations a bit too much. It's also possible that their non-vegan options are stronger than their vegan options. Overall, though, very yummy, the prices are very reasonable for Durham ($16 for the Biang Biang noodles), and I would come back & try the veggie curry if given the chance.

Why do my wife and I keep returning to Bua Thai in Durham?…read more The Thai cuisine is great! e.g. the spicy green curry is great. The "drunken noodles" (chicken and vegetables for us) are wonderful too (and usually less spicy). The restaurant is beautiful inside and out. The parking is easy once you know your way around. The neighborhood and the restaurant are quiet. The staff are friendly and helpful. They will help you get the spiciness level right. All of the above tends to make happy customers. So it is a happy place. Lastly: The prices are reasonable (and often we have leftovers). We have always eaten there, but tonight I look forward to "take out." Look up "bua flower." I gather "bua" is the Thai word for the lotus flower. It defines the vibe and beautiful cuisine.
