    I LOVE Thai food & wanted to love the food here. My mom raved about the food being good and wanting to go check it out. She specifically said the Thai Fried Rice was good. We ordered the Thai fried rice w/ chicken as the protein, cream cheese wontons and chicken wings. I didn't care for any of it. The flavor was lacking on the fried rice, pretty bland. Even with a spice rack it wasn't that great. The wontons were okay but it was $11 for 5 of them and they were just cream cheese in a thick wrappper. Chicken wings were served with a sweet and sour type sauce. Also bland. The menu seemed solid & maybe the flavor is elsewhere like the curry or other dishes. They had some featured drinks on the board, otherwise it's mostly wine. I tried to order the sake mojito but they were out. We went shortly after they opened, it was empty when we got there but a few more people came in as time went on. Our waiter was Amazing. Very attentive and nice. They share a parking lot to the left of building with Jones Coffee. It's a tiny lot, otherwise street parking.

    Swung by for lunch this week and really enjoyed our visit! There is free street parking which is great and they also have a small lot but it does fill up quickly with the other businesses as well. We got the holy basil which was super delicious, and we added tofu for some protein. The portion was good but the price is a little bit high at $21. It's a cute area so you could definitely walk around after dinner or go brows the shops beforehand. Lots of great vegan and vegetarian options as well! And service was also great, our server was very attentive.

    Panang curry with beef- half eaten! Don't worry the portions are great!

    Naviya's is really outstanding. There is so much flavor from the fresh herbs, the vegetables are always cooked perfectly. I wish it was closer to our house- I would order it all the time. Ordered spring rolls and red curry with beef. The spring rolls were delicious- fresh and stuffed well, with a delcicious dipping sauce. The Panang curry was sensational- loads of fresh veg (often curries don't have enough veg in my opinion), beef wasn't overcooked, lots of layered and robust flavor. Portion size was great. Sometimes takeout food loses its magic somewhere between the restuarant kitchen and your table but this is never the case with Naviya's.

    Came back after a year plus being gone. So the food is always good. But at times it's busy getting in. If you don't get lucky and get kne of the limited parking spots.... It's a hike. The Indian Girl and I had dinner together here again. Vegetarian. Quite good as it has been most times.

    Chicken pad Thai

    Food is wonderful here! All their dishes have a ton of flavor, but my two favorites are the chicken pad Thai and the chicken red curry. The wait staff is always super quick and responsive to their guests. Great capacity for the area, and you are able to have a convo without it being too loud. My go to Thai place!

    My mom likes Thai food so we decided to try this hip place with my grandma. My grandma is in her 90's and was worried about parking, but we found a spot right across the street easy peasy. Went in and it is very trendy. Green walls, neon sign, and plants hanging from an exposed ceiling. One guy was working everything front of house, but luckily it wasn't too busy. Ordered some spring rolls, chicken satay, beef fried rice, and chicken pad thai. The spring rolls were okay, but the satay was EXCELLENT. Crispy and prepared in a way that I have never had at any other Thai restaurant. An absolute must!! The pad thai was hearty and my grandmother's favorite of the meal. She loves noodles just like her grandson. They gave us chicken instead of beef for the fried rice which was kinda annoying. Waiter was running around busy so couldn't tell him and my mom was hungry. She was zoned out due to surviving a family reunion and started scooping rice onto her plate. I can understand why because the rice was really yummy and looked it too. The women at the table did not like the little sharing plates with the shallow lips. They thought it was hard to eat off of. I didn't mind. I'm young and like to work for my food. Also, the plates are similar to something my wife would buy. At the end of our meal I told the waiter about the rice and he apologized. Luckily chicken costs the same as beef here so there wasn't a price issue. My mom, who was pretty out of it due to her dog passing away recently, also dropped her water glass shattering it on the ground and the waiter seemed pretty unfazed saying "those glasses break all the time". I'm curious if they actually break a bunch or if he just said that to make my mom feel better. Regardless, if I lived in the area I would be back. I'm sure my grandma will be. She'll probably order pick up which is what most Thai restaurants deal with these days. Please for the love of Paul Bunyan eat HERE or another small business instead of Panda Express or Leeann Chin.

    I truly enjoy good Thai food and only have this one visit in which to make a judgment, but based on this one visit I will definitely be back! Check the hours before going though because, strangely, they don't open for lunch until 12. Thankfully, I arrived at 1215. I was seated immediately, offered water and submitted my order within the first couple minutes. The food arrived quickly and was still steaming hot with a wonderful presentation and perfect amount of spice. I chose the MEDIUM level of spice (level 3) but they offer several hotter options, including "Thai hot". The serving size was more generous than I would have expected but it was so delicious I ate every bite. I set my credit card in the table upon completion of my meal and it was retrieved and processed quickly -- enabling me to finish my entire lunch in less than 20 minutes from arrival to departure. There was no rush and i didn't feel pressured, but it was nice to know they could process my order so quickly. I will definitely be back to try the green curry next!

    Panang curry with tofu

    We had a lovely evening dining at this Linden Hills restaurant. The space is clean and open, and the service was helpful and cheerful. Our server answered all of our questions and made helpful suggestions. We started with the lettuce wraps, which were the perfect summer bite--light and refreshing, the different tastes and textures were united by a tasty sweet, salty, and tart sauce. Mom loved loved the crispy fried rice noodles so much she ate them by the handful. Mom really loved the massaman curry. It was sweet, smooth, and rich. The cinnamon came through clearly, and the carrots and potatoes were cooked to tender perfection. Mom adored the sauce. I was blown away by my Panang curry as well. The veggies were wok-charred, which was a surprising and absolutely delicious complement to the tongue-tingling spice of the curry. I'd never had this style of curry with a thick sauce that coated the other ingredients, but it worked really well here. We finished up with the mango and sticky rice, which is always a treat. I don't what magical store sells the Perfect Mangos that they used, but I wish I did--this dessert was a real treat! The portions are generous enough that you can take home another meal with your leftovers, and the menu had enough options to appeal to many dietary and taste preferences. It's a great place for vegetarians and vegans as well as obligate carnivores.

    I ordered takeout from here and was happy with the service I received. I ordered the red curry with chicken at a three spice level. It was extremely spicy but the flavors were incredible. Definitely will be back but will be sure to get a lower level of spice!

We began with the Roasted Cashews, which were perfectly seasoned and addictive. For mains, the Red Curry was rich, complex, and comforting, but the star of the show was undoubtedly the Pineapple Fried Rice. Hands down, the best version we have ever had--perfectly balanced sweetness and savory depth. The drink pairings were spot on: I enjoyed a lovely glass of Pinot Noir that complemented the spice beautifully, while my partner had a crisp, cold Sapporo.

The service is friendly. We were greeted shortly after entering. The restaurant was fairly busy, with many others dining in, and many takeout orders coming in as well, but we were seated right away! Several employees checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and were enjoying our food throughout our dining experience! They have many vegetarian and gluten free options. They also have some vegan options or items that can be made vegan upon request! We had the cream cheese wontons as an appetizer! The filling was very smooth and creamy and slightly sweet. We also had pad see yew with tofu and pad thai with mock duck. The servings are generous and each entree can easily last for 2 meals. They include a lot of the protein of choice, which I greatly appreciate. Some thai restaurants ask you for your desired level of spice, but we weren't asked here. They were mild (no spice) by default. The pad see ew had a savory, slightly sweet flavor. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the Chinese broccoli had a nice little crunch. The pad thai had a good balance of sweet, salty, and savory. For dessert we had the mango sticky rice! The mango wasn't particularly ripe, but the coconut milk provided the perfect amount of sweetness. I enjoy Nong's Thai and would recommend it!

As entrees, we had the New York strip laab. This is a chilled steak dish. Our steak was more "luke warm" but the flavor was explosive! The steak was also done to a perfect medium the whole way through! The salad was bright and paired so well! This was our favorite dish! The green curry octopus was tender and the green curry tasted so fresh! The peas in this dish felt overpowering and we did not care for them. The scallop crudo was light, melt in your mouth! The coconut milk and citrus paired so well in this dish! Unique! My only complaint was that it was not as pretty as it was on the webpage. For dessert we got some cocktails!
