    Pad Thai

    Small little hole in the wall place. Food was delicious. They also have cucumber water!

    Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodle) Yellow Curry
    Jessica Z.

    Cute spot nestled in Rice Village. We went during lunchtime on a weekend and we were quick to be seated and served. I ordered a Thai iced tea which was really yummy. Also ordered their papaya salad which was quite saucy but full of flavor with fish sauce and lime juice. We ordered the pad kee mao (drunken noodles) with tofu which was heavier on the tofu, wished they added more noodles as I really liked the wide shape and chewy texture of them. We also ordered a yellow curry with chicken which was not too sweet and paired well with the rice. Good place for quick lunch or dinner. Would like to try their other dishes next time!

    No shortage of decent Thai places around and here's another! Food was fresh and came out quickly. Everything was good but generally not unique. I particularly enjoyed the flavor of the crab fried rice. The massaman curry was much runnier than most places. Reasonably priced and the shared lot is free if you can get a spot.

    Brand new thai restaurant in the village! So new it's only been here a week and they still have the old restaurants name up. It says Ma Kitchen but the restaurant has changed to Mana Thai Kitchen sign coming soon per the owner. The interior is very nice with a large wine selection it appears. Right now they are previewing their soft open menu! I played it safe and ordered my usual basil fried rice! Service was fast but I was also the only one in there loool. Now the basil fried rice tasty! Not too greasy and the ingredients taste fresh. Not mu favorite of the bunch but i'd eat it again! Overall I like it! I want to try more things on the menu!

    Khao soi tasty
    Long T.

    Solid Thai food in Rice Village! After recently pivoting to a Thai cuisine, Mana serves up some tasty traditional dishes. Favs included the khao soi noodles, tiger cry beef, and the crab fried rice. Overall a great addition to the Rice Village food scene!

    Nice little place in rice village. It was their soft opening when we went. Service is good at the beginning but refilled waters were rare to nonexistent unless asked. Everything we ordered was medium and it felt super mild. And I can't do much to any spicy. So... order super hot if u want spicy. Everything was pretty good overall. Would return.

    We had been here before and loved the food, so we decided to bring two guests with us for dinner. Unfortunately, our experience this time was disappointing. When we arrived, the waitress seated the four of us at a very small table. We politely asked if we could move to a larger table, but she refused, saying that the larger tables were reserved for parties of six. Throughout our meal, there were at least six empty large tables available. With four people sharing multiple dishes, the table quickly became overcrowded and uncomfortable. While the food was still excellent, we were unable to fully enjoy our dinner because of the cramped seating arrangement. We truly love the food here, but better attention to customer comfort would have made the experience much more enjoyable.

    Chicken pad see ew
    Grace P.

    This was a relatively new Thai spot that opened in Rice Village, so I was curious to check it out. I got the chicken pad see ew which was pretty good, but the portions were smaller and pricey. The restaurant had really cool interior decor and our server was sweet

    Mana Thai was such a pleasant surprise with its luxe casual atmosphere and top tier service! The tables are set so nicely, there is soft music playing, and they serve cucumber water when you walk in. Definitely a quieter restaurant perfect for meetings, solo dates, and a calm get together. I got the Pad See Ew and Drunken Noodles at a level 3/4 spice, but neither were as spicy as I thought they would be. I've already been a few times and it's a very aesthetic addition to the Rice Village food scene!

    Chicken wings and chang beer
    J T.

    Chicken wings are very good. Short ribs good. Curry sauce delicious Service was Place was overall good. Would go back.

    Mango sticky rice is the best

    We are Thai and we decided to eat this at first time. We are surprised that taste is like Thai Real Thai original Thai. We will come back again.

    Drunken noodles and basil duck

    This is not your average Thai restaurant. Whoever is in the kitchen is putting out some special takes on things found on every Thai menu. Ever have bao buns in a Thai place? A pork version here was excellent. We are looking forward to the drunken noodles and the basil duck ( so crispy!) for lunch tomorrow

    Corn salad the mimics papaya salad
    Dave S.

    I don't know why this does not have a higher rating. I have nothing but positives. This food is delicious. I really like the papaya salad made with corn. Light and a unique twist. The short ribs remind me of Kao soi. All the textures and flavors were on point. Duck egg roll was ok, but probably not necessary with my meal. Glad I tried this place! I'll be back.

Upon arrival, I was pleased to find ample, effortless parking available, which always sets a delightful tone for a meal. However, stepping inside was where the true magic began I was absolutely captivated by the extraordinary decor. The venue is tastefully curated with authentic Thai statues, traditional toys, carved wooden boats, and serene Buddha figures, creating an ambiance that instantly transports one straight to Bangkok or Pattaya. The hospitality was top-tier from start to finish, seamlessly balancing efficiency with genuine warmth. To begin, I ordered a traditional Thai Iced Tea, which arrived crisp, wonderfully smooth, and expertly chilled. For my luncheon, I selected the Pad Thai, which was served delightfully over fresh banana leaves a charming, authentic touch that elevates the entire presentation. When the dish arrived, it was an absolute culinary triumph vibrant, rich with complex flavors, and executed with superb skill. Between the immaculate cleanliness, immersive aesthetic, exquisite cuisine, and flawless service, this market gem earns absolute full marks from me. A quintessential discovery I shall most certainly be returning

The food was honestly delicious and tasted quite authentic compared to other Thai restaurants I've tried. Everything was flavorful and well-seasoned, and our food came out surprisingly fast. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a little hidden gem that I'm happy to have found near my home. I'll definitely be coming back!

Soft music, white and red walls with Thai decor. Natural lighting during the day with warm interior lighting. It appears that there has been a makeover to the restaurant. I like the new look more. It seems more upscale in appearance. Dress code here is business casual. 4. Food - I've had their YELLOW CURRY WITH CHICKEN AND WHITE RICE.

Cleanliness - dining area is clean. The waitstaff keeps this place in tip top shape. The only complaint I have, although not exactly about cleanliness, I would suggest that management take a look at the lock in the men's restroom. Although it was locked, someone was able to enter still. SUMMARY This is a petite Thai cafe. Everything about this place was enjoyable. I would definitely come back to try again and will highly recommend this place.

    I went with my husband during Houston Restaurant Week, and maybe that was my mistake…read more We got the Thai ice tea and Thai jasmine green tea for drinks, squid and tofu for appetizers, the crying tiger and kua kling for entrees, and the sticky rice with mango and the coconut ice cream for desserts. I can confidently say that I was disappointed. There was not one dish that stood out or that I would recommend or come back for. I especially was sad that the crying tiger flavors really missed the mark. The sticky rice that came with it felt like it was reheated and some parts were hard. It also tasted like some of the vegetables (green beans and carrots) that come with the entrees were frozen, not fresh. The jasmine green tea tastes like a powder mix. Some of the squid tasted freezer burned. The kua kling was the most interesting and unique of the dishes, but not one that I would go out of my way to eat again. The sticky rice with mango was as expected. The coconut ice cream is probably pre-portioned and frozen so was rock solid when it came out. I did not find most of the toppings particularly good. It was a busy Friday and I know service was busy. The food did not take long to come out, but we definitely had dishes from previous courses that stacked up, and we had to ask them to be taken away. They do have a high chair for toddlers and brought a plastic plate/utensils, but there was not a changing table in the bathroom we used. We have had such great experiences at other Thai restaurants in Houston that I would not come back.

It could easily reach that level. Our waitress, Ann, was incredibly kind, soft spoken, and welcoming. My friend Sherita suggested this restaurant after we left a Yelp office hour, and I'm so glad she did because it introduced me to something I never knew I needed: the salmon mango fried rice. It was absolutely amazing. I originally planned to take some home for my son to try, but it was so delicious that I finished every bite in one sitting. Sherita had visited earlier in the week and tonight shared that she arrived; right before I walked in which was 30 minutes before closing time, Jackie told her to hurry up and order, even though she already knew exactly what she wanted and didn't even need a menu. Jackie response was unprofessional and didn't even wait till the table guest got to the table, which was less than seconds since we all arrive at the same time, and left the same place. During our visit, Jackie never brought us water. A couple who was seated after us received water before we did. It took over 10 minutes for us to get water. Ann took great care of us, but anytime we wanted a refill, we had to ask. At one point my glass was completely empty. I noticed Jackie refilling the water glasses for a table of six, so I managed to get his attention. He looked directly at me, scanned the room, then stomped away all fast without acknowledging my request. Instead, he told Ann that we wanted water, and she graciously brought it over. Even at the end of our meal, Jackie stood behind the register while my friends waited to pay, yet another employee ended up taking their payment. His overall energy felt very cold and unwelcoming. My friend even joked that it was probably for the best that he didn't refill my water because of the energy he was carrying. As someone who believes water absorbs energy, I honestly agreed. I'm grateful Ann was the one who served us with such kindness. The restaurant itself has such a peaceful, zen atmosphere. The greenery outside and the warm lighting inside create a cozy neighborhood spot that I truly want to love and revisit with my son. Thank you , Sherita for introducing me and Aaliyah to this hidden gem. I completely understand why you visited twice in one week. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu, and hopefully next time the hospitality matches the quality of the food.
