Liang's Thai Food - Panang Curry - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Liang's Thai Food While staying at the Hilton in Denver, I discovered Liang's Thai Food through Yelp and decided to walk over. It's a bit tricky to find, so I even shot a little video to help others locate it! They make the food right on the spot, which I loved. I ordered the Pad See Ew and asked for extra vegetables. They charge $1.50 for that, but I went all in and said I'd like $2.50 worth! The portion was generous, and the food was delicious. They do operate on a cash-only basis, so be prepared for that. There's also a seating area if you want to eat there I went back to Hotel. Overall, a fantastic experience with great value for the price! read more

Cute spot, reminds me of hawker center. The proprietor is rather kind. Bring cash as they don't accept credit card. Better on a sunny day than a cloudy or rainy day as their abundant outdoor seating. Pad Thai was certainly nice, and it was the first Thai food I've tried since moving to Denver. In order to get five stars from me I would've liked to see a broader assortment of veggies, and perhaps some freshly sliced jalapeño on top to balance out the sweetness of the pad Thai. I do recommend and enjoy supporting small businesses. read more

This is a small one-man-shack. I almost couldn't find it because it seemed closed, but if you walk up to it, the chef will open up and take your order hahah. For what it was, the food was really tasty! I would definitely stop by again for a quick meal on the go. read more

The owner was friendly and made the food on the spot very quickly. He also made sure it wasn't spicy since I can't eat spicy lately. That's the reason for the 3 stars. The food was meh and a bit too much fish sauce and tamarind sauce with lime. It was overly salty and didn't have a whole lot of rice noodles. I like the fact that it had a lot of veggies but they were all too salty/sour. I went because everyone said the portions are big and the food is great, but oh boy is that a lie, it's a small portion compared to most Thai restaurants. (I've attached a photo) It's also cash only so do make sure you have enough money or you'll have to find an ATM. read more

Charming spot with kind service and plenty of outdoor seating--best enjoyed on a sunny day. Cash only. The Pad Thai was good, though I'd have liked more veggies and a bit of heat to balance the sweetness. Still, a nice place worth supporting. read more

A very small Thai place in its second generation now run by the son close to the convention center. It's a place where there's only outside seating and one stove they cook out of so the line can take awhile. It's also cash only! I got the pad thai with beef. The beef was a little bit dry but other than that, it was perfect. read more

We had planned on stopping to eat since reviews were great but I didn't realize the closing time was 7! We were like 3 minutes away so started running to make it there and got here at like 6:59-7. The guy was so nice and was willing to let us do a last minute order. We got the Pad Thai and it was amazing! He mentioned they have a restaurant in Broomfield so anyone who lives close to that or this location is lucky! So good!!!!! P.S. CASH ONLY! read more

Liang's Thai Food - Paid Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is a hidden gem in downtown Denver! I was craving a good Thai lunch and came across this place on Yelp. Upon first glance, I must admit I was just a little apprehensive. But Yelp hasn't steered me wrong yet, and this meal was no different! I had the Pad-See-Ewe with tofu and veggies and it was so delicious!! A good sized portion and cooked to order. The gentleman who took my order and made my food was friendly, kind and definitely knows how to cook! The outdoor seating area is super cute. It's cash only, so just run into the Target next door and grab yourself a drink and some bills. I would highly recommend Liang's if you're ever in downtown Denver! read more

Liang's is an awesome food truck! Nice customer service, and delicious food at very resonable price. Panang curry was one of the best I have ever had and they give you a generous portion.

We ended up parking at 16th street mall and not sure what to Do for dinner so we stopped here. This was my favorite Thai restaurant so far in Denver. The cook was super sweet and you cold tell enjoyed cooking. We got a pad Thai my husband daughter and I all shared. There was literally nothing left in the plate. We got it medium spice and honestly could have gotten it spicier but it was delicious. My husband wanted the dumplings so we did those as well and he said they were cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back soon. read more

This is a small restaurant, not much larger than a typical kiosk, but inside are two gentlemen cooking up a storm. I ordered chicken pad thai, medium spice (3 on a scale of 0 to 5), plus I ordered three orders of pork dumplings. A typical order is 2 dumplings, so I ordered 3 (6 total). I took this back to my hotel (Hyatt Regency). Sat in the comfort of my own room, enjoying my dinner. Not a fancy restaurant, but still pretty cool. Excellent food. read more

I've come to Liang's a handful of times since my first review and it has easily become one of my favorite spots in Denver. The pad basil and pad Thai are both delicious, authentic, and super satisfying. The gentlemen who run the kiosk are awesome, prices are hard to beat, and food is some of the best Thai around. Just be prepared to wait in line for your fresh, made-to-order Thai dishes! read more

This place is LEGIT! I've been hearing such great things about Liang's from about everyone who works downtown, and when I finally got to try it today, I immediately understood the hype. This is some of the BEST pad thai in Denver. I got the pork and my god, the sauce on the noodles is out of this world. For only $11.50, I feel like this is super well priced considering you can easily make this two meals. The fried egg on top was a very nice touch. The lady in front of me got two fried eggs (for like an extra .50) and thing I'll have to get that next time. Only thing to remember is that it is cash only, but you won't forget the flavor. read more

Great food! I couldn't believe the operation this guy is running out of a tiny hut on the street. Very tasty but a smidge on the greasy side. But yummy overall and clean. Also cool to watch them wielding flames in such a tiny space! read more

I absolutely love Liangs Thai food and the owner is always so friendly. I get the pad Thai with extra beef and an egg and ask for it medium spicy. Every time the flavor is consistent and it tastes so authentic! It's a little cart set up on 16th st mall so there isn't any place to sit is the only downside. However they opened up a location in Broomfield and it's just as great! read more

Liang's Thai Food - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Food - 5/5 Excellent Thai food, of a level you'd be pleased with from a white-tablecloth restaurant, served from a food truck. Value - 5/5 Very, very reasonable for downtown Denver. Location - 4/5 Convenient if you're at the 16th St. Mall, but if you're not, this area of town is congested and has no public bathrooms whatsoever. Service - 3/5 Cash only with long lines. read more

Real deal Pad Thai and other traditional dishes made right in front of you. Here's what you need to know: + On 16th Street Mall. + A tiny kiosk with usually one person working. + Only open during the week. + Cash only. + Prices are stupid affordable for the quality and quantity. + Two orders per person. + No website, no phone number, and no social media. + Don't be a hero and order Thai hot. You won't wake up. Liang's has a lengthy line regularly. And for good reason. It's damn delicious. The food comes up piping hot, ladled from wok to styrofoam container at the counter. The luscious noodles eagerly waiting to be slurped. If this isn't heaven, I don't know what it is. This year, they landed on Yelp's Top 50 Places to Eat in Denver list. I popped by for an afternoon snack after a meeting nearby. That snack turned into two orders of Pad Thai, which ran me $23. FOR TWO FULL PORTIONS. I'm certain I've paid the same price for a single serving at fancy Thai restaurants. Liang's is undeniably better. Locals in Denver are keen to avoid 16th Street Mall, known as a tourist trap to many. Liang's is the exception to the rule. You go out of your way to come here. Yeah, you'll wait a bit of time for it. But just like the finer things in life, something's gotta give. read more

In front of Uniqlo or 7eleven In a small food cart on the 16th street mall off of Tremont - there is always always a line. There is a line before it opens at 11am and if you think you can catch them at a off hour around 2pm - there is still a line for lunch! The Goods: 1) Panag Curry - spot on and hot is def hot. I don't think I could handle thai hot 2) love all the drunken noodles 3) I'm always able to get a mix of veggie/chicken or other meat 4) side dumplings for $1 extra 5) everything under $10 and usually around $8 The Bad: 1) The lines. This is a one person stall with two burners and everything is made on the spot from the blanching of the veggies. I commend him for this and it shows in the flavors but if you don't have patience to wait in line, think min 5/10m per a person and there is like 5 ahead of you - then this is not for you 2) one order per a person until you want to double the same order. So u can't have your friend get you food unless it's the same exact food!!! 3) opens at 11am and closes when the food runs out. Sometimes - the wide noodles are the quickest to run out. 4) not opened on the weekends If you have that Thai craving and don't mind the line (take a call or read your emails in line) - this spot is sooo legit. read more

This place is a vibe! While the stand is small, the flavor is huge. I loved the space. When I visited there was a live band playing and a fair amount of locals grabbing their lunches. That's how you know it is good and affordable! read more

Absolutely blown away by how good this food is and how nice the men were in the food cart!!! I came here for lunch, around 12:15pm and there were 9 people in front of me!! That's how you know it's good though. The 2 guys work QUICK so I honestly didn't have to wait nearly as long as I thought I was going to. I got the Pad Thai and the pork dumplings. It was more than enough to feed me and my husband and it came out to only $11.50. Cash only!!! The pad Thai was HEAVEN!!! You can tell them the degree of spice you want on it. I got medium and it was the perfect amount of kick to it but not over powering. The guys running the show were so nice and had a smile on the whole time. I can't wait to go back!!! read more

Mmmmmm... yummy!!! If you are in Denver downtown and have some time(because the wait time is rather significant), go enjoy this little gem. The food is amazing. I had drunken noodle, pad seewee, Pad basil and dumplings all were at least 8 our of 10. Worth the wait and worth the money. read more

**CASH ONLY** sometimes i worry that i can't taste food anymore and then i eat something with actual flavor and feel better much about the world.. had the green curry, medium spicy, and it was SO good.. fresh veg, moist chicken, happy tummy.. can't wait to go back for the panang.. here's the thing tho, you really never know when they're going to be open and that sucks.. don't pass it up when they are.. read more

An interesting one man show. He was super nice and friendly, I walked down 16th early so there was no line but after I ate there was a long line forming already. The food was so fresh and delicious, look at all those veggies! Definitely would recommend if you don't mind the line. It's a small food cube between the Jamba Juice and Starbucks. read more

FINALLY!! I have lived downtown for two years, just on the other side of Liang's and always wanted to stop but without ever finding the time and I FINALLY managed it!! And I only wish I'd gone sooner, lol! One of my best Thai food experiences in Denver thus far. I'd honestly like to give 4.5 because not the very best Pad Thai but close so 5 stars it is (in Denver). Everting is made to order so it can take some time but definitely well worth the wait. I had the dumplings and chicken pad Thai with medium spice and it was delicious! The owner/cook was super friendly and the price was so worth it! I ordered medium and it felt mild so will definitely get hot next time. I can't wait to try the drunken noodles next! read more

Liang's Thai Food - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This small place in the middle of 16th street is a hidden gem! Amazing food! I've had both the Pad Thai and Panang Curry and both were amazing! It's a bit of a wait because it's just 2 guys making 2 orders at a time but you are guaranteed fresh delicious food. No more than 2 orders per person and cash only. I think I like spicy food but I get burned form time to time. Mild is a dusting of spices and medium is 1/4 teaspoon so hope that helps you judge. I had mild at first and it was not spicy at all. So I went a little higher and ordered the curry later that week (because it's that freaking good) and got medium and it lit me up. This doesn't mean I won't try medium again though! read more

There's really absolutely no need to go anywhere but here for Thai food. Yes, it is only to go but what you sacrifice in table service, the food will more than make up for it. This business is in a stall in the middle of the 16th St. Mall and locals frequent this place. We went there 3 times when we visited cuz it was that good and the price is reasonable for the amount of food you get. It has all the popular Thai food options like Pad See Ew, Pad Thai etc. We tried their Pad Thai, Pad Basil, and the Stir Fry Ginger dishes and they were all scrumptious. The owner is super nice! Tips: if you want Pad See Ew, you'll have better chance of getting it in the afternoon. They were out when I tried to order in the evening. There's a maximum of 2 orders per customer so that everyone has a chance to order. CASH ONLY! read more

Jay is the man! I've been going here since 2012 when I was in college and since then Jay has taken over the food stand that his mother used to run. The food is always top notch and some of the best Thai food you will find in Colorado. There is a con which is that him and Chef Tommy (I think that was his name) are the only people running the stand and they make all the food from scratch so it'll obviously take time to get through orders. With that being said, I am a very impatient person and think that waiting 45 minutes to an hour for a meal is ridiculous. I make an exception for Jay. Not only is his food amazing but he is an amazing guy as well. He never has a frown on his face and always makes funny, interesting conversation. Also, if you're not familiar with the Thai spice levels and enjoy spicy food, maybe try a step down from what you think you want first and build up. Do yourself a favor and try out this awesome guy's food! read more
