From left, basil rice with beef, fried dumplings, pad see ew with tofu... Plus a pond of Sriracha.

We came to visit just a few days after they opened. The restaurant is very small and the crowd was very large. There was very limited seating plus the order line runs through the center of the business. They seemed to be working out the wrinkles. A sign directs customers to order before sitting. I believe the order window was also supposed to be the pick up window, as you are given a beeper to notify when the food is ready. However, I think because the line was constant they had someone running the food out. Anyway, at the last minute, we changed our order to take it to go because it just felt too cramped in there. The food was delicious! We ordered the pad see ew with tofu, the fried dumplings, and the basil fried rice. The dumplings were incredible. A tiny, perfect package of flavor. The noodle were super flavorful and tossed with crispy veggies and tofu. The tofu was perfectly crispy and honestly I couldn't get enough. I will definitely come back for the tofu options. I wasn't a huge fan of the rice, but it was very flavorful. There was just not enough contrast in textures for me. I'm absolutely coming back for more!

The food was very good! I love that they offer a range of "spice". They have a tiny parking lot which filled up fast at dinner time. The seating area was a closed in patio. No Ac, which was fine when I went but might be uncomfortable during the summer. Might just have to do Togo. I got the Chicken Pad Thai. I'm alway hesitant about how peanuty Pad Thai will be, but there's was perfect. I got 0 spice but they offer a range of spice.

Love this local spot in the neighborhood. The space is small, with limited indoor seating. The food is delicious and freshly made every time I go. I've never had an issue with an in-person or online order either, thank goodness. The menu has been revamp a couple of times and new items were added each time. The basil fried rice is always my fav. The staff is always friendly and very helpful. IMO the heat options are spicier than other Thai places I've tried, but I'm not complaining. Just keep that in mind when ordering and selecting your spice level. All drinks, except for the Thai teas, are bottles for purchase. I really wish they would have a free water station as an option. Hoping this is something they will consider. Also, consider the time of day when sitting near the non-tinted windows since the sun can get pretty intense.

New Thai food restaurant, just want San Antonio needed!! I got the Punang Curry with chicken and it was amazing. The flavor is so good, I got it spicy and it was the perfect amount of heat. Really large portion too. The protein is not included in the price and I didn't see where menu listed price of each protein so I would recommend that they add the pricing to be more transparent. (My bill was a little pricier than expected) The rice it came with didn't seem fresh, it wasn't bad, but just didn't seem like fresh rice to me. I wish there was a larger portion of rice to go with curry because they give you so much (enough to have a little leftovers). I also got spicy edamame and it wasn't quite what I expected. It was more lightly seasoned with pepper flakes, but I usually prefer the kind that comes coated in a spicy garlic or chili sauce. There's a lot of other things on the menu that'd I'd like to try like their wings, but if nothing else, I'd come back for the curry! San Antonio doesn't have many Thai options, so I think overall this is a solid place. Very kind and friendly service! Limited seating inside - order and take a seat with buzzer kind of place. I think most people take their orders to go. Would recommend!

Pad Thai

Moo Deng was so nice, clean, very pleaseant atmosphere. I ordered the Pad Thai at the spiciest level and it easily was the best I've ever had (and I've had a lot). The owner told me it was her authentic personal recipe, and both she and the staff were very kind and eager to serve. The Pad Thai was so well dressed and the chicken and tofu were cooked nicely, and the spice level (Thai Hot) was flavorful beyond my expectation. It came with peanuts, bean sprouts, and a lime wedge! Needless to say I demolished my entire plate. I will definitely be coming to Moo Deng often, and so will my family. We left with more Pad Thai to go for my dad!

The food is delicious! Pad Thai, cheese rolls, and fried rice was 10/10 Friendly staff

Our visit to Flying Tiger Thai was a bit of a mixed bag. Some things were done very well, while…read moreothers just didn't come together. We started with the crab Rangoon, which turned out to be the highlight of the meal. They were folded into little pillows and fried to a nice golden brown. The temperature was perfect, and they were crispy without being greasy. The cream cheese filling was smooth and creamy, although I would have liked a little more crab. Still, a well-prepared appetizer and a good start. For my entrée, I went with the Panang curry and crispy noodles at our server's suggestion. I'd never had Panang served with fried noodles before, so I was interested in seeing how it worked. The chicken was thinly sliced, tender, and nicely cooked. Unfortunately, the rest of the dish didn't work nearly as well. The crispy noodles were hard and clumped together. There was very little curry sauce, which made it difficult to enjoy the noodles or even get a good sense of the curry's flavor. For me, the curry is what should bring everything together, and there simply wasn't enough of it. The plating caught my attention, but it also seemed to allow the food to cool off rather quickly. I appreciate a different approach to a familiar dish, but the balance just wasn't there. Service was friendly, but a little disorganized. Several servers came by to take drink and food orders that had already been placed. We found ourselves having to explain that someone had already taken care of us. When we asked for recommendations, our server quickly ran through her favorites, mostly naming items rather than explaining what made them worth trying. I would have appreciated a little more guidance, especially since her recommendation led me to something I hadn't tried before. The atmosphere was fairly ordinary. Nothing particularly wrong with the dining room, but nothing memorable either. With a name like Flying Tiger, I expected a little more personality. Overall, I saw some good technique in the kitchen. The Rangoon was fried properly, the chicken was tender, and the staff seemed willing to help. Unfortunately, the Panang curry missed the mark, and the service could have used better coordination. If you're visiting, the crab Rangoon is worth trying. As for the Panang curry, I'd consider skipping the crispy noodles based on my experience.

Growing up in Texas, I knew nothing about Thai food. On a business trip I went to Thailand and I…read morefell in love with the food, country and people. Walking in here reminded me of places we ate - the Texas sized Buddha made it easy to remember that we were still in Texas. The smells, the food, the service was very reminiscent of being in Thailand. Being Friday, we started with the potatoe soup (only available on Fridays). It was tasty even though there was nothing "Thai" about it. The large bowl fills 4 of the cups with a little left over. The crunchy wonton strips were hot, crispy with a nice sweet and sour sauce. The wife had pineapple fried rice, one of her favorites at any Thai restaurant, they did not disappoint. I had the chicken larb salad, medium spicy, and it delivered spice and the citrus acid from limes, very good. Portion sizes are generous. After the soup course, my wife and I are bringing about half of each entree for tomorrow lunch. Service was prompt and it's worth another visit, even at 45 minutes away from where I live. Pro Tip: scan the QR code at the table to get the menu. They don't keep their paper menus current with either prices or choices, probably the only knock I have against this place.

The employees knew I was very picky when I order my dishes. The service!! Perfection every moment I walked through their doors. Sit for awhile.
