We have come here for take out and dine-in and everything has been absolutely delicious. We got their Pad Thai and Chicken Fried rice to go and even sitting for a while, are still the best I've had. The fresh rolls were exactly that, fresh. The crab Rangoon were amazing. The kids loved the chicken satay. The orange chicken was probably our least favorite of the night. However, it was still very good. The breading was light but still crunchy! We also got Curry to go. The Yellow chicken curry was perfect. Got a 2 out of 5 for heat and it was on the money. Just a little bit of heat. The pumpkin curry, man, what a unique treat, amazing. The atmosphere was relaxing and staff were kind and helpful. You need to try this!! 3*** = Just Okay 4**** = Set themselves a part with quality food and I want to go back. 5*****= You have to go out of your way and make a special trip to try the deliciousness that is there! read more

I ordered mild pad Thai (which is an option when ordering) and it came so spicy I couldn't finish it. Also, I had to get to the pad thai by getting through a pound of sprouts. read more

Krachai Thai Kitchen - Sprouts that I had to get through to find my pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

A Hidden Gem That Blossoms With Time I arrived shortly after opening and was the only guest at first, greeted by a solo server dressed in black with the restaurant's logo on her shirt. She welcomed me with a calm "Sit anywhere you'd like," and while she didn't offer specials upfront, her quiet attentiveness set the tone for what became a beautifully immersive experience. The space is rich with Thai cultural touches--embroidered elephant tablecloths under glass, silk-covered tables, woven baskets, and soft Thai pop music drifting from the kitchen. A Buddha statue and framed photos added depth and reverence to the decor. Even the privacy wall separating the kitchen was adorned with embroidered umbrellas and flowers. I ordered the lunch special: pad see ew noodles with fried tofu and vegetables, accompanied by a sweet-savory broth soup, crispy wonton crackers, and a spring roll. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully plated. Later, she brought out veggie spring rolls wrapped in crisp lettuce and carrots, served on a porcelain green leaf with peanut and sweet red sauces--visually stunning and delicious. As the restaurant filled up, the atmosphere shifted from serene to bustling. A large party arrived, and the server--still the only one on the floor--handled the crowd with grace and efficiency. Despite the growing noise and demand, she remained clear, quick, and kind. I appreciated her presence and tipped accordingly. Krachai is more than a meal--it's a quiet unfolding of culture, care, and comfort. I'll definitely return, and next time, I'll ask for my pad see ew spicy. It deserves that extra kick. read more

I made a comment on a facebook post about how my sister and I ate here years ago and the it reminded me of our mother who had a Thai restaurant in the 80s and won best in Phx several years. One of the owners, Kevin, reached out and kindly invited us to come back for dinner on them in honor of her. Kevin treated us as if we were old friends. He introduced his lovely wife and co-owner, Diana, who took a moment out of the kitchen to welcome us. We ordered Larb Gai for an appetizer. So good! I wanted to hog it all and not share with my sister. Tangy lime, salty fish sauce, refreshing mint and cilantro, bite of the onion, a little heat. Nice balance of flavors. I told her it was better than what I make. Kevin recommended Pad Thai. Now, I have never been a big fan of it and hardly ever order it when we go out, especially because most places put too much sugar and it is mushy or saucy. I don't know if they are trying to Americanize it or what. We decided to try it since he said it is made more traditionally. I am happy we did. The tangy tamarind taste wasn't lost in sugar like most places. It had just the right amount of sauce. I like a lot of bean sprouts and could have used a little more- but sometimes they take away from the flavor. I messed up when I ordered Prik Khing with pork. Kevin did recommend chicken, but since our other 2 dishes were chicken, I wanted to switch it up and can't eat beef. I wasn't a huge fan of the pork, but the green beans and the flavor of the sauce were so good. Would definitely try it with chicken next time. Portion sizes were big! Look at all the pork in the pic. Most places would do mostly green beans and a few pieces of meat. We ended up bringing a lot of the Pad Thai and Pad Prik Khing home because we were too full after we practically licked the Larb Gai plate clean. This will make me sound crazy, but their water and ice are so good! I am addicted to chewing ice so it is something that I take notice of. When I said something to Kevin, he said they bought a good filter for water and ice. I could really tell the difference. I don't get to go out to eat much and this is a little far, but plan on trying to bring the husband out next time we are in the area. Thank you for a wonderful meal. read more

Thanks to social media, we found one of the few restaurants open on Christmas Day. Note that they do close between 3 and 4 PM for their lunch. What a sweet restaurant with the nicest people ever. They appreciated the fact that I knew how to say hello and thank you in Thai. They were busy with takeout orders. We ordered #40 & 44 pad see ewe and rad nhar. Pad See Ewe is a wide flat rice noodle with your choice of protein, egg, broccoli & carrots in a house brown sauce. Hubby chose pork as his protein. Rad Nhar is a stir fry flat noodle with choice of protein, broccoli, carrots, and garlic, soybean paste, gravy sauce. I chose chicken as my protein. We both chose the number one spice, which is very little. For those who love spice, you can get a number five, which is the hottest available. As I mentioned, they were super busy. Our meal took a little bit longer, but it was so delicious for both dishes. The food comes out super hot, temperature wise. There is a teaspoon of chili sauce on top of your meal. Distribute it evenly so that your tongue doesn't burn unless that's what you like. Number 44 comes in a light fragrant broth with soy beans and garlic on the bottom of the bowl. It was absolutely delicious. Very fresh vegetables cooked perfectly in both of the meals. Staff checked on us to make sure we liked our meal. A very nice experience. We will be back! Reasonable prices. Seafood is a bit more which is understandable. Shared parking in the huge plaza lot. read more

Honestly, I wouldn't come back. Ive tasted much better curry and papaya salads. All of their plates that we orded were very small portions compared to other places we have gone to. They used cabbage as a filler in the papaya salad to make it look like a bigger portion. We ordered a steak plate also and it wasnt hot. Its ok in flavor but not the best. The yellow curry had ok flavor but hardly had any chicken. Sucks to leave a review like this but hopefully it can be taken as constructive criticism. read more

Ordered Uber eats from here a couple days ago. Was ready fast! I got the pad see ewe with double tofu. I forgot to ask for no egg, but it was pretty easy to separate out the egg so not a big deal! The meal was not great though, like I got medium spice and I'd say the spice level was accurate but just didn't have much flavor outside of it being a bit spicy. The carrots didn't look particularly fresh. The tofu was just ok, and the noodles were kinda stuck together in clumps. Usually Thai food tends to travel pretty well which is why I ordered it, but this didn't seem to. Overall it was not terrible, just not as good as some other local Thai spots! read more

Krachai Thai Kitchen - 40. Pad See Ewe Noodles - Thai Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Was not impressed by the spices they use in the food tasted very average something you can make at home and pricey

The Thai food here is so delicious. I'm a huge fan of their pad Thai and tom yum soup!! I highly recommend calling ahead of time or ordering ahead of time! My go to Thai spot! read more

We came here for the birthday celebration. We ordered a LOT of food, maybe too much. We ordered: 2 Appetizers Combos: 2 egg rolls, 3 potstickers, 3 fried wontons, 3 crab rangoon, and 2 chicken satay - Everything is very GOOD. Tom Yum Soup: Chicken in hot and sour broth flavored with lemongrass, mushrooms, tomatoes, green onion, chill and lime juice topped with cilantro - SPICY but very tasty. Chicken Pad Thai - Stir-fried rice noodles with chicken, egg, bean sprouts, and green onions in house pad thai sauce with crushed peanuts. This was on point, loved it. Yellow Curry with Chicken - Chicken with onions, potatoes, and carrots in yellow curry paste and coconut milk. A little spicy for me, but I am WEAK sauce. I loved the smoky and nutty flavors from the curry sauce. Krachai Pineapple Fried Rice - Rice seasoned with turmeric powder stir fried with chicken, shrimp, egg, onion, pineapple, cashew nuts, and scallions. This dish is fantastic. All the aromas, the crunch of cashew nuts, the sweetness of pineapple, and a that earthy flavor all stir fried. Mango Curry with Beef - Beef with mango, onions, and potatoes in yellow paste and coconut milk. This was very interesting. The chucks of soft sweet mango and the earthy curry threw me off, but it was very tasty. Thai BBQ Chicken - Half chicken marinated buty it more like a fried chicken not BBQ chicken. See picture. It tasted like chicken. The prices are reasonable, the service is amazing, and the food is delicious. read more

Very good service. Had a variety of the soups tom kha and tom yum that were delicious. My wife loves their orange chicken.

I really enjoy this place and I can't wait to go there next weekend The food is always amazing

Solid takeout experience. Tom kha gai could have used a bit more vegetable. Massaman was on point. Would recommend being a bit more aggressive on spice level. I ordered medium and I definitely could have done spicier, but it's subjective of course. read more

What a wait. I feel like I'm in the military here. Hurry up and wait . Definitely not my cup of like really

First time disappointment waitress were off and service was bad elderly lady was serving and she should not. Food was ok but not up to usual read more

Stopped in for lunch after searching for Thai restaurants nearby. I was the only one in the place at the time. The soup that came with the lunch was served tepid, and was merely broth with a few inexpensive vegetables (cabbage, canned peas, etc.). I had to ask for the soup to be re-heated. The "egg roll" that came with the lunch was actually a vegetable spring roll, mostly filled with cabbage, and the contents were very mushy. The two wontons served with the lunch were cold and seemingly stale. The sweet and sour sauce was very runny and not very flavorful. No hot mustard was offered, nor was there any chili oil or paste to be seen. My main course was panang curry chicken. The waitress, although nice, never bothered to ask about a desired spice level and, unfortunately, I didn't think to ask her about it. It was resultantly prepared at a level that was very mild (not very spicy) and I would have liked it prepared much spicier. The dish was served with a minimal amount of chicken and the sauce was runny, but the taste was okay. I've had much better elsewhere. Overall, the food was just okay. . .but I would not return when there are so many better options around Phoenix. read more

Always good, always fresh and delicious. Favorite Thai food in north valley with super friendly staff and always fresh and fast.

I love coming to this place, I came with my parents and we love it here! Our go to for the appetizer is the pineapple fried rice and it is so amazing! I got the sweet and sour chicken with Thai tea and both were so good all of the ingredients went so well together and the sweet and sour sauce was made just right! The service was great as well, our server was very nice and did everything in a timely manner and was very attentive. The ambiance was very nice and cozy as well. I love the decorations that they have as well. read more

I'm a fan. Happen to be in the area and glanced at the Yelp page to see the reviews. I was sold. Came around 4:30pm which they were busy with to go orders and a well seated amount of patrons. A popular spot for first responders as well. The service was quick considering there were only two servers. The price point was extremely reasonable. My Spicy Thai Basil without the green beans (3) spicy was soooooo good. I can handle spicy but their level (3) was HOT. I ate my whole plate. The jasmine rice was pretty tasty. I can tell the food is cooked to order. I will try this place again if I'm in the area. read more

The shrimp pad Thai was SO good! However, for 24 dollars and some change, for only 5 shrimps was over priced for me. They have the shrimp pad Thai available 11am-3pm M-F for $15 which is much more reasonable and very worth it. Food was nice and warm and fresh, friendly staff. I highly recommend! read more

Krachai Thai Kitchen - Sweet-and-sour Thai chicken - Thai Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

We were really craving Thai food. Based off the reviews, we decided to try it out. We ordered spring rolls and they came out warm and oddly perfectly rolled. We are 95% sure they were boxed spring rolls and warmed up. We also ordered the shrimp pad Thai, and the portion was extremely tiny for $26! It was overly saucy, and I could barely eat it. The chicken panang had more of a soup consistency versus a curry. Extremely disappointed, especially for the price we paid. read more

The food here is outstanding and pricing is reasonable. I love the authentic Pad Thai and Tom Kha soups.

I wanted to love this place so much, but it seemed like it fought me and wouldn't allow it. 1 waitress to do the ordering, and bussing. 1 cup of water will all you will see. I noticed, when I used the restroom, she was watching some movies just out of sight. So, thats why I didn't get any refills. The Tom Kha soup was decent, but probably the sweetest i ever tasted. To sweet for me to order again. Panang was good flavor, but pretty runny, without the smooth creamy sauce that I've come to love. Ill try this place again...but I need time to recover from this initial let down. read more

Delicious and spot-on flavouring & spices in their dishes. Truly wonderful and will be looking forward to being a regular-occurring local client!!! read more

Stumbled into this restaurant when our running errands. Amazing fresh food with a perfect spice level. Super quick service not being rushed. We had the green curry with chicken and the chicken pad thai. Both tasted amazing and we ate the whole portion. Super clean restaurant with lots of distance between the guests. We will come back when we are on this side of town. read more

I usually do not leave reviews but I appreciate the extra effort that this place gave my family so we could have a nice dinner. My child is autistic and Sometime can be a handful. My waitress saw that i was struggling keeping my kid entertained so she brought us a coloring book and crayons. That small gesture was everything in that moment. And made the difference of my kid having a melt down or not. The food was also delicious. I loved the curry. Reminds me of my aunt when she used to cook for my brother and i. I Def Wil be coming back this time w my entire family. read more

My favorite Thai spot (Siamese Kitchen) was closed due to family emergency, so a friend chose Krachai as our backup dinner spot! Super cute and clean, brightly lit, and has lots of parking! The staff is attentive as well. There were customers coming in and out picking up orders the entire time we were there. Now to the food... we both ordered shrimp pad Thai and shared orders of fried tofu and veggie spring rolls. As I mentioned, my comparison is with Siamese Kitchen. The prices are definitely more expensive here and the portions are smaller! I had to send back the veggie spring rolls because they were not hot but when I cut into them! So I immediately told the server and a new order was brought out! They were piping this time! I wouldn't order these again though! The pad thai had a delicious taste but definitely not worth the price. I'm happy that I got a chance to hang out with my friend, but if asked to go here again, sadly, I would pass. read more

Their food is a hit or miss, especially the yellow lentil soup. When it's done right and not too watery, then it's amazing. Sometimes they don't simmer it enough and it lacks flavor and depth. I've never been inside but maybe one day. read more

Honestly, the food is excellent. The customer service, not so much. We called ahead and were told 35-45 minutes. We arrived early (20 minutes in) and ended up waiting over an hour for our food. We could have dined in, in less time. We checked in every 10-15 minutes and kept getting the same run around of "almost done, waiting on this" etc. The entire experience was very frustrating, especially since we only had 2 entrees, an appetizer and a dessert. read more

Me and the wife had dinner this evening 9/21/2025 ordered item #34 Pepper beef steak, beef was rubbery food warm just salty. #46 Thai chicken fried rice, nice and hot from the stove tasted flat, no basil in it it called for basil fried rice. #38 Pad Thai it was served hot from the stove, to much sugar in it way to sweet, very little egg to show, the bean sprouts to over cooked, should have been placed on the egde of the plate in it's raw condition like Pad Thai calls for. I have spend many weeks in Thailand but this isn't Thai food, I would call it something else? Quantities were fine, servings on large white oval ceramic plates looked very good. I will never comeback again, I have been at much better restaurants before. read more

Food tasted good but VERY disappointed in the portion sizes. I didn't even take a pic but I got the lunch special to go , spicy basil with tofu. The actual meal portion was literally the size of my palm and had exactly 4 pieces of tofu. They just raised the prices to $11.00 and the size was worth like $5. Super disappointing that I paid 18$+ tip for a lunch and Thai tea only to have to go eat more food somewhere else . read more

I like this place, the food is pretty good. There are a few issues though, the primary one is the service is pretty slow. The last time I was here, there were only 3 other people in the restaurant, but the whole process took pretty long. Also, apparently this is a shady neighborhood because someone got assaulted outside of the restaurant while we were eating, so we got to enjoy several police cars, paramedic and fire engine with full lights during our dinner. Will I be back? Yeah, probably.... At least I know fire and rescue is nearby in case something goes wrong. I give this place a 3 1/2 stars! read more
