    Red Curry
    Sarah P.

    Sooo good! Tucked away in the foothills in a small plaza there is this delicious place! Hidden but it makes that whole plaza worthy. The service was great and the food was amazing. I got the veggie spring rolls and they were so fresh and delicious. This place should be where there is broader population but I'm sure people in the foothills are enjoying this little secret.

    Summer drink menu

    This place was so cute and so clean. It only has 7 tables but don't let that stop you from coming. Let me start by saying the service was really good. Quick, kind and informative. As it was our first time in Daniel made several recommendations and was able to answer any questions we had. Now let's get to the really important stuff: the food. We ordered avocado summer rolls for our appetizer. They came with a sweet and sour sauce and a peanut sauce. They were fresh and delicious. For our entrees I ordered the mango curry with chicken at a medium heat. The flavors burst inside my mouth and made me feel like I was in Thailand. The veggies were cooked but still crisp, the chicken was tender and the sauce was to die for. My husband had the Singapore noodles with chicken for his protein . The vegetables were sautéed to perfection with tender juicy chicken and flavor that was out of this world. We will definitely be making the 35 minute drive to this place again. If you're local go often and if you Live further away it's worth the drive any time you get the craving. They offer carry out as well.

    Crab Fried Rice
    Anna B.

    We loved everything we ordered from here! The staff also did a great job taking care of us. The portions are such a good size as well. Not pictured we also ordered the crab wontons & calamari. Give them a shot! Worth the try!

    Steamed veggie dumplings, summer rolls, butterfly shrimp, thai iced matcha latte, thai iced tea

    Fantastic food & fantastic service! This is my new favorite spot! I recommend the butterfly shrimp, pad see ew, & mango curry. The dishes we've had so far have been hot, fresh & delicious! I highly recommend you check this place out!

    Thai Iced Tea
    A L.

    Authentic Thai food in the valley, with both the food and the staff being wonderfully friendly and welcoming! 1. Pineapple Fried Rice: Quite good with a hint of curry flavor that gives it an interesting twist. Ordered mild, and though it's not as spicy as the tom yum noodle soup, the curry spice can make it a bit spicy to some. 2. Tom Yum Noodle Soup: I love tom yum, and though this doesn't have the mama tomyum ramen noodles style- feeling since it's with a different type of noodles, it's still really good. The broth is more like tom yum nam khon (creamy tom yum), almost like tomato soup. Ordered mild again and can be a bit spicy.. but spice is exactly what makes it feel authentic. 3. Coconut Ice Cream with Sticky Rice~ The ice cream was a bit sweet, but it's still quite nice with the sticky rice. I miss my Thai desserts haha. And of course, must have Thai iced tea hahah. Good to help with the spice too. Cozy restaurant and good food overall. !

    Panang curry lunch
    Devin M.

    This place was good!! This may be the best Thai here in ahwatukee boundaries. The panang curry was a knock out. I got mine mild and it still had some nice heat to it so be wary haha. Cute interior, very simple. Really nice staff I think my server was Ariel. I got the lunch portion. It's perfect for lunch. I'd suggest they just add $1 to the lunch combo total and just throw in the soda or like a tiny cup of soup to drive the value home but it was the right amount of food. I'll definitely be back.

    when i say as a brown person, This food is AUTHENTIC. everything was seasoned to perfection and tasted amazing. The server was so sweet, packed up everything TOGO for us and even help" the door open for us. Super clean all around and just perfect. Usually never write reviews but this place worth every wait and drive. These people will give you the best dining experience!

    The food was incredibly delicious. We ordered crispy chicken egg rolls, eggplant with chicken and veggie lovers with beef. Everything was phenomenal. The waitress was very kind and attentive.

The staff here are so kind it really made the experience of having to wait a bit so much better! The gentleman at the front door recommended a wine bar around the corner to wait at after we got on the list, which was a cute divey spot. The food was delicious, we loved the papaya salad so much, there were so many flavors of spicy and tangy, and the papaya itself was very refreshing. We had the Pad kee mao and Panang curry which were also delicious. For the chicken pad kee mao we requested it to be gluten free and they gave us the same rice noodles as the Pad Thai and a slightly different sauce which was so darn good! The chicken was very tender. When the Panang curry said it came with beef, I didn't know what to think but after a single bite I was a huge fan! So many flavors hit you at once and the beef was so incredible, it was falling part. I also ordered the savory cocktail option (I can't remember the name) which had cucumber vodka, fish sauce, mint, onion, and some other goodies, and wow! It changed my life. Highly highly recommend. Overall would definitely come back here, we were a walk in on a Saturday night and had an hour and a half wait to get in.

We started with the creamy, coconut-infused Yam Mamuang Boran (green mango salad), and food came FAST from there. Some standouts for me included: - Ba Mee Moo Dang (BBQ pork egg noodles) - Pla Rad Prik Sam Rot (fried branzino) - Tom Kha Gai (coconut chicken soup) - Tom Yum Haeng Sen Yai (wide rice noodles) All of these had a beautiful balance of acidity, savoriness, spice, and herbs in one dish with tender meat. But everything together really hit well. For example, the bok choy was a light break between super savory curries and fried wings (HUGE fan of the marinade on these). I also enjoyed getting to share dishes I wouldn't normally order a la carte, like the Naw Tawt (fried bamboo). The staff members made sure to ask about allergies and spice tolerances and thoroughly explained each dish as it was served. We actually ended up paying slightly less than the estimated $55/person for 12 dishes (before drinks) -- and we realized we got an extra serving of the chicken wings at no charge. Arai Kodai is truly a phenomenal way to experience more of the best dishes on the menu! We were stuffed, and I would gladly return.

    (This is an updated review that includes responses to the owner's response below. I left…read moreeverything the same except for where you see "LW" and I'm directly addressing the owner.) It's always nice to see a unique menu. Often you go to a restaurant and see the same items found everywhere else. It could be Italian, Thai, Viet, Indian, etc. Here at Lom Wong, you not only get a unique menu, but a story to go with it. The family lived in three parts of Thailand and the menu has a section for each. Great! The restaurant layout is fun and feels like a single family home. Front patio, nice interior, and rear patio. The crowd was hip and attractive as Phoenix is wont to be. But there was only one bathroom and a long line for it. Wtf? Most important, the food did not land. Of the five dishes we had, I would only want one of them a second time. We got off to a good start with the bok choy tofu starter. This was excellent and unfortunately the only highlight. The flavor seemed to be from dark or sweet soy sauce and perhaps oyster sauce. It was delicate and delicious. Then came the mango salad. It was one note: sour and bland. I love a papaya salad with the acid from lime, sweetness from palm sugar, heat from chilies, and the textures of papaya, green beans, peanuts, etc. This was just strands of sour, unripe mango that was hardly dressed. (LW: I don't care that you're using unripe mango over papaya. I care that the dish is bland and one note in both flavor and texture. Where is the dressing, the flavor?) Next was the pork belly curry. Oh dear. I love Thai curry so much and this has so much spice powder, (not necessarily flavor), that it felt chalky. It was so heavy and thick without delight. The rice was overcooked, watery and dense, so it couldn't serve as a counterpoint. The pork belly had all the slimy fat parts that some like. I admit it's personal preference that I don't care for it. I was hoping just to get the protein parts. (LW: I'll defer to your expertise and stand corrected on powder, and I apologize. And yet, the curry is very thick and lacking flavor. Maybe it just needs more salt/fish sauce and palm sugar. I've had so many curries where I want to lick the bowl clean. Here it was anything but that.) The char siu with noodles was very sweet and just decent. The pork had bad parts and at this price level I want better. (LW: I'm not buying the fat argument. The more upscale the restaurant, the better the meat quality. You're in the US and this dish is dominated by the sweet noodles. There's no need for bad fat parts. It ads nothing.) The banana split with coconut sorbet. Just no. The presentation was unacceptable. Baskin Robbins does better. They just slice up a banana, put on a "sorbet" that felt more like ice cream and lacked coconut flavor, and then sprayed on the whipped cream, fudge, and nuts without any creativity. No presentation. (LW: Don't talk down to me. I know the difference between sorbet and ice cream and that should be obvious from what I wrote above. I've had way better coconut sorbet's period. There was a thick creaminess to this that felt more like ice cream. It was bland. It's also ironic, given what you said, that you're getting it from a "Creamery". Fish sauce caramel? Just no. I live in a household that uses fish sauce 3-4 days per week. It doesn't work in a caramel. Trying too hard. Take it out of the cocktails too.) Style over substance. Hip place, hip crowd. It's "interesting". But the food doesn't land. If we go a second time, we'll try the fried chicken, squash curry, and tom kha. If there's a second time. Not in a hurry, unfortunately. (The charming diners next to us loved their fried chicken for the record.) One last thing. You can order drinks at the beginning but not appetizers. One must order all dishes at the same time. This reminds me of the "no substitutions" places. When you carry this much attitude with some gimmicky, exceptional policy, you had better deliver. In my experience, places like this almost never do. It's more like a trick to manipulate one into thinking your food is more special than it is. (LW: I've been to Thailand. Thanks for assuming I haven't been. I ate loads of extraordinary street food. $1 per dish. I also had great restaurant meals. Never once did I encounter some "rigid" notion that all dishes be ordered at once. Wait, Alex says this happens in Thai village homes. There are servers apparently. They also serve $16 cocktails with fish sauce. And Lom Wong invented family style! Face palm. Stop with all of the "Americanized / Authentic" nonsense. Bland is bland and it's something I never associate with Thai food. I found your response presumptuous and condescending. I would have returned to your restaurant to try other dishes, but now I won't. I really dislike a restaurant telling me that I didn't enjoy their food because of my own shortcomings.)

As a proud Yelp Elite, I decided to give this place a chance because the reviews were the best I saw in the city! The place was busy on a Sunday night and it is small but I never say customers waiting too long. There were two larger parties seated so the food took some time but nothing outrageous. We started with the calamari, spring rolls, and crab wontons. The calamari were the biggest I've ever seen and very delicious! Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the spring rolls or crab wontons. I feel like those are hard to get wrong but I was not a fan of the cream cheese that was used and it was a lot of it, barely any imitation crab. For entrees, I had the spicy basil and substituted ground chicken for chicken breast, my personal preference. I ordered level 2 spice but it was still a bit spicy for me. Trying a new Thai place is always hit or miss with spice levels so I actually thought I was being safe with 2. Additionally, the chicken was so bland. Some Thai places season their chicken, some do not and unfortunately Pad Thai Cafe missed that mark. My partner ordered the short rib curry dish and my goodness, it smelled like heaven and tasted just as good. I don't eat beef but had to taste it and it was divine! He also ordered spice level 2 and his dish was not as spicy as mine. Overall, the rest of the party enjoyed their food and there were good flavors there so I'd definitely recommend the entrees, not so much the starters.
