    Cream Cheese Wonton ($8)
    Pree C.

    First time dining in here. For a Saturday around noon it was empty. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. I ordered a few items but asked for extra resulting in up charges during the lunch special. Which was not a problem. I asked for the lunch soup which was by itself a $4.50 up charge for substituting to a soup from a wonton that would've only been one wonton after further clarification. While the soup was very tasty the amount for the up charge I thought was too much, mainly because the portion was so small. So, I did not appreciate that. Quality was great but price for the quantity I think was too much. For one person, I ordered 8 piece cheese wonton, an entree adding extra meat, in addition to the soup, and a Thai iced tea. I asked for a Thai iced tea to go which was also charged for a small cup. On the contrary, other great Thai places do not charge for refills and if they do their cup sizes are bigger making up for the charge. Overall, quality was 4/5. The entree was a bit dry and could have been complimented with a little sauce. Portion for the entree was not bad (it was $24 with the up charge). Appetizer I thought was reasonably priced. Thai iced tea was well made. I think I would return but would be nervous I will be paying a lot for a little portion that may make me reconsider coming here versus another highly rated Thai establishment. Ambiance was very pretty, clean, and comfortable to dine in.

    I've been here before and got a duck dish which wasn't bad! I tried it again coming with a friend and the flavor was lacking. It was not comparable to other Thai restaurants that i've tried, not sure if it was just a fluke this time. Service was great, waters were never empty and the decorations and beautiful creating a homey vibe to the place!

    Three words- crispy duck soup! If you haven't had it, it's a must! Not sure how they do it but the duck actually retains its crispness even a day later (when I've taken this soup back for leftovers). The rest of the food is also very delicious! The sun dried beef and the volcano shrimp are my usual go tos- other dishes are a bonus!

    Fried Crispy Vegetable Spring Rolls.  3 pieces to an order.

    My favorite dish at NuNu is their duck noodle soup. I've enjoyed and followed that soup since days of Thai Luang to Thai Tada and finally to NuNu. Aside from the duck noodle soup, we also get the duck basil, pork with string beans, red curry, drunken noodles, and pad thai. Their appetizers of fried spring rolls and papaya salad are great starters. I have several local Thai restaurants that is my staple that I would not hesitate to recommend to my friends and this is one of them. If you ever watch Cheers, this place will remind you of that show as it is always full of regulars at the bar. If you want great food and excellent services, go to NuNu. It will become one of your favorite Thai restaurant quickly.

My mom and I were seated right next to the front door by the manager. Since it was freezing outside and the door kept opening, we politely asked if we could move to a table away from the draft. He told us no because a large group was expected to arrive soon. We then asked another employee, who said it wouldn't be a problem and moved us to a different table. A few moments later, the manager noticed we had been reseated. He came over, abruptly took the menus from our table, and angrily told us to leave the restaurant. The way he spoke to us was aggressive and totally uncalled for, especially considering his own staff had seated us. We decided to leave at that point. As we were heading out, he raised his voice again and told us to "go home," which was embarrassing and uncomfortable with other diners around. There was no confrontation on our end -- we didn't argue, complain, or cause a scene. We simply asked not to sit in the cold draft by the door. The entire situation escalated solely because of how the manager handled it. It's disappointing because the restaurant advertises friendly, welcoming service, which was the complete opposite of what we experienced. After reading other reviews, it also seems this isn't an isolated issue. If the owners see this, I'd strongly suggest addressing how customers are spoken to. No one should be yelled at or treated aggressively for making a simple, reasonable request.

We were pleasantly pleased that the bistro did not have a wait and we were seated immediately without reservations. Looks like there is also outside seating once the weather really warms up. The menu consisted of many familiar items. Many of the dishes allowed for a choice of protein. For my entree, I went with the shrimp pad see ew. Though the portion was generous and the noodles were cooked well, the dish was a bit too salty for my taste. It also had a noticeable kick of white pepper, which I actually enjoyed - but the salt was overpowering. Unfortunately, not only did I finish a glass of water at the restaurant, I found myself grabbing another glass after getting home. La Ong is low-stress dining in a cozy spot.

Not pictured here but the Crispy Pork Belly with sticky rice was the star for me. We tried several other dishes, but this one really stood out. It was so good that we were craving it again just a few days later and ended up going back. Even thinking about it now is making me crave it again. In the photo is their papaya salad and another dish that I believe was siomai. I am not completely sure of the name, but it was good as well. The restaurant is easy to find since it is right next to a Starbucks. If you enjoy Thai food and love crispy pork belly, this dish is definitely worth trying.

I actually want to rate this meal 2.5 stars but since I can only give whole stars here, I'm giving the restaurant the benefit of the doubt. I think it can still be pretty good, but not with the dishes we ordered. We came for lunch and ordered off the lunch special menu. That meal comes with the entree, and either a vegetable spring roll and chicken lemon grass soup, or a vegetable spring roll and vegetable lemon grass soup. They offer a third alternative of two spring rolls as well which I think is a pretty nifty option. The two entrees we had were the vegetable tofu drunken noodles and the chicken sweet basil (pad krapow). The spring rolls were fine. Crispy on the outside, cabbage on the inside. The soup was unfulfilling. It tasted a bit like lemongrass soup but it was not tasty. For the entrees, we were able to adjust the spice level: I went for "hot" (3 out of 4 of their scale), while my dining partner went for "medium" (2 out of 4) on the drunken noodles. At most Thai restaurants, these two dishes generally have a similar flavor profile. Here, they do, indeed, have a similar profile between themselves. However, the sauce was quite red. It had a vinegary overtone and possibly some tomato base to it. It did not match the pad krapow flavor profile that I've found at basically every other Thai restaurant I've been to (in the United States and Thailand). It could be this is an authentic version I'm just not familiar with, but I really did not like it. Overall, Thai Luang is a decent place. Perhaps some of the other dishes and curries are good, but there are too many other Thai restaurants in NOVA these days for me to use up a meal coming back here.

They were slammed. And I think they did a great job with the demands of the patrons. Let me explain the 1 star rating. My friend raised her glass to take a sip of her cocktail. The entire bottom broke from the top and spilled the contents over 4 people. Half my pants leg was covered. Another had her purse drenched. Another her shoes were soaked. The one with the drink - her entire pants was soaked. My friends husband talked to the bar manager and he said he would comp us (4) a drink. So we told the bartender what our friends husband said. The bar manager came over and said he is only going to comp my friends drink that exploded. We all looked at him like "WTF just happened?" His bar back cleaned up the mess around us and saw all the liquid on the ground and stools. I don't even think they check to see if we were ok. The 3 of us paid our tabs and left. I haven't been to Tiki Thai much this year but when I had, I never had an issue. The service from the bar manager was appalling to say the least. There are so many restaurants in Reston Town Center that we can spend our money at and we will from now on.
