The food was pretty good. We ordered the Pad Thai, Pineapple Fried Rice, Spring Rolls, Thai Iced Tea, and Massaman Curry. They were all delicious, and the portion size was generous for the price. The servers were kind, and the wait time was average. The restaurant had a nice and peaceful atmosphere, and I would probably come here again. read more

I drive by this place all the time since it opened and just always forget about trying it. Last week we went for the first time and it was some of the best Thai food we have ever had. Everything was fantastic and it's reasonably priced. This week we went back just to make sure That we did not just lock out on that last visit, it was just as good. One of our favorite restaurants now in South Asheville. read more

Went with a large group of people. We were seated right away. The service was fast and friendly. My dish was cashew chicken. The chicken seems to have been dipped in cornstarch and fried. It was very tasty. read more

We have eaten here several times and have consistently had good table service, good food, reasonable prices all with a relaxed atmosphere..

A hidden gem of a Thai restaurant. The thai milk tea, pad kee mow, and curries are all deliciously seasoned and fresh. I do recommend trying to dine in if possible since the noodles sometimes stick together and get a little soggy if put in a takeout container. Tip: The lunch prices are a great deal. read more

Came on a Sunday with a party of 8, and we all left happy and full. Glad they still kept their lunch prices on a Sunday, so the food was definitely very well-priced. Each dish we got was $10-$13. Got the pad kee mow (drunken noodles), panang curry, and pad Thai The pad kee mow (drunken noodles) was a favorite: the noodles were fresh and chewy and they had that perfect level of spiciness that wasn't too spicy but left me wanting more. The panang curry was filled with flavor and I appreciated having enough veggies and protein in one dish. It's a good standard curry. The Pad Thai came steaming hot off the stove and did not skimp on the peanuts/veggies. If you prefer a sweeter noodle dish, go for this. The staff were nice and could accommodate our large group. With the great service, food, and cheap price, I definitely recommend this place! read more

I love Thai food (favorite cuisine to eat) and I am so glad Yelp lead me to this Five Star Thai restaurant! All the dishes I tried were fresh, flavorful and well presented! I tried the curry puffs based on another review and they were fresh out of the fryer with a delicious filling. The sauce that comes with it is also very good! I could drink it! I tried the chicken pad Thai and the Panang chicken curry. Both had great flavor and I would order again. My husband had the spicy Thai fried rice with shrimp and beef and he enjoyed it. If we lived in Asheville this would be our Thai place. Sweet server as well! read more

Great food and service here. Tom Kha is my favorite soup always with rice to it. They also very fast and accommodating. Thank you.

What a gem! The prior reviews talked us into this place and they were not wrong! We picked up takeout on a really cold day looking to spice up. I had the chicken pad see u with medium heat. It was delicious! The texture of the noodles were exactly how it should be. The amount of sauce was perfect, I hate it dry and also soggy wet so this was great. The portion for dinner was epic! The white chicken was perfect. The broccoli was a bit on the soggy side but it didn't change how good it tasted. My husband ordered the beef Pad Kee Mow (drunken noodles) and all of the same noodle, portion and sauce credits go here. The heat on his what "hot" and it was perfect for him. We also ordered the puffy curry... ummm hello! Why haven't I had these before?? My husband was less impressed but I could eat a pile of them. The sauce was delicious and I could put that on everything. I really hope this place does well and sticks around for folks to enjoy. read more

New Thai restaurant? Yes, I'm in! I'm sure it's not easy opening during a pandemic, but I am glad to see this place up & running. The restaurant is clean, well-decorated & spacious. Service was great. I ordered the Panang Curry with chicken & spring rolls. The spring rolls were crispy & delicious. The curry was amazing and presented beautifully! Great portion. I definitely will return and try other menu options. read more

Placed an order to go and the gentleman was very nice on the phone. When we arrived it was hot and ready. Gave us all the utensils, napkins and sauces we needed. Food was still hot when we arrived back at hotel. Everything we ordered was flavorful and had just the right spice. We would definitely eat here again if in the area. read more

We love Thai food, and this place delivers on authenticity, quality, value and service. We were passing by through town and needed a bite. Khao Thai piqued our interest given the high ratings, and we were very pleasantly surprised to find such a gem. Flavors were spot on. Dishes all tasted as if made with attention and care to subtle mixes of spices from authentic family recipes. The balance between salt, sugar, acid, and smoky char was spot on. The light flakiness of the curry puffs was delightful. Chicken satay was so moist, tender and flavorful. Accompanying satay sauce was delicate yet complex. Main noodle, curry, and salad dishes all had appropriate non-redundant seasoning, and were well prepared. Our server was very attentive and polite. Everything was clean, and well portioned. Too bad we don't live in Asheville, so we could become regular customers! read more

I recently posted a review of this restaurant and now I don't see it. All I see are high ratings for some reason. Hmm. I placed a take-away order here a couple weeks ago and was very disappointed. Based on the reviews I saw, I expected a nice meal but it was not good. I got the panang curry and a side of gyoza. The sauce in the curry dish was watered down and flavorless. The chicken in it wasn't too bad though I ended up throwing away the entire dish but a few bites. The rice was really just terrible, overcooked and gelatinous. Also, I've never seen gyoza all brown and dried out (see picture attached) like I was given. They were like leather. The filling was ok but the dipping sauce was just mediocre. I'm very sad to have to post such a negative review but prices on everything are so high, we deserve better. If you can't even get the rice right, that's unacceptable. I sure miss Blue Dream Curry House, *sigh. If this second review disappears, I'll be reporting it to Yelp. read more

Yummy Thai food in asheville? This is the spot Wanted some quick convenient din so we hit up this place. Got some takeout and this place hit the spot. I always judge a place by thr pad see ew and they do it right here. Soft tender noodles perfectly cooked mixed in with generous amounts of beef and brocolli. Also got the pad kee mow which was also absolutely delicious with a spicy kick to it. Portion sizes were very generous - I could not eat all of it even despite my rather large appetite. Overall very delicious, classic Thai fare. read more

One of the best Thai restaurants. Very quaint and wonderful service. Food was so good we were there twice while traveling in the area. I definitely will be back read more

Everything is fresh and delicious! One of the best Thai places I've ever eaten at - dine in and takeout! The service is impeccable, also.

The food is probably the best in the city! i go here nearly every week and i have never been disappointed. love Khao Thai so much!

A few days later, my husband wanted to go back to Khao Thai, so today we dined in for lunch. Cute little restaurant, spacious seating, nicely decorated. Staff is exceptionally gracious and polite. Now let's talk about the food! This is seriously the BEST Thai food in town. Why is this place not bursting at the seams for lunch? The Curry Puffs were my husband's favorite: light pastry filled with minced chicken and curry, served with a peanut sauce. It's like a tasty Thai empanada :) Pad Kee Mow was perfectly prepared, tender noodles, sauced to perfection with the freshest hits of basil, bell peppers, spice and chicken. Massaman curry was so well-balanced with savory red curry, peanut, potatoes and chicken. I also got the mango sticky rice to go and it was a tropical delight. When I eat the food here, my belly is happy and I'm reminded of home (Los Angeles) and Thai Town. If you like Thai food, this is a MUST try. read more

The best drunken noodles I've had, hands down. The noodles and peppers had the perfect amount of char, and the pork was cooked tender. The Pad Kapow's sauce is to die for, and something I will definitely work on reserve engineering at home. Great price point and serving sizes, 10/10 would recommend. read more
