Came on a Sunday at around 8pm and it wasn't busy. I assume most people are doing takeout orders as opposed to dining in. I ordered online and picked up about 20 minutes later. Pick up was quick and easy. Service was very nice and helpful. I did have to ask for chopsticks though because they didn't include utensils in the bag. Not an issue if you're eating at home, but I wasn't, so that would've been a huge bummer if I had no utensils to eat my food with. PAD THAI (w/ pork): The pork was very tender with a little fat on it. I really liked it! The noodles could've used a little more flavor, but more lime would've fixed that for me. It only came with one small slice and I prefer using at least 2. I'm sure you could ask for more though. Medium spice wasn't that spicy. I would say it felt mild with a decent kick. I don't really eat spicy foods but I think I could've gone up a level. If you wanna be cautious though, medium was pretty safe. Also, it felt like the noodles kind of over-steamed in the container because there's no ventilation holes. Not bad, but it made the noodles feel a little dry from over-steaming. I'm sure this wouldn't have been an issue dining in or if I cracked the lid for ventilation. I do have to say it was a pretty large portion though. Especially for takeout! A lot of places use smaller portions for takeout because their containers are small, but the containers this place uses are big and they give generous portions! I also asked for no nuts or beansprouts and it didn't affect the portion size! PAD SEE EWE (w/ beef): The pad see ewe, specifically, had a buy one get one free special online, so I got a pretty good deal on 2 portions. It seemed like a lot more meat than noodles though. Personally, I would've preferred more noodles than meat, but I got a free portion so I couldn't really complain. If I didn't get the free portion, I would've been more disappointed with the amount of noodles. Both the noodles and beef were very flavorful! The noodles had the perfect texture and the beef was very tender. Again, the medium spice had a decent kick, but just wasn't that spicy. read more

Pinto Thai is a Thai restaurant that offers a cozy, family friendly dining experience that is decorated with culture like interior. Went here during lunch time and tried their lunch special which includes bite size appetizer mix of egg roll, soup, and salad plus a medium size entree. I had asked for the main entree to be the most spiciest in which was not delivered. The service was nice and helpful, however, was a bit slow despite that there were a few tables at the time. But overall this restaurant serves a decent experiment. read more

Amazing thai food, excellent service, and a cool atmosphere. The thai tea was super good, and my pad see ew was perfect. We also really enjoyed the fried veggie spring rolls. It was pretty quiet when we came, and there was only one other family there on a Saturday afternoon. Would definitely come here again. read more

Excellent food!!! What a hidden gem! Their picture is not updated to what it looks now. Beautiful inside. Make the trip and enjoy!!!​

Went back and it was just as good as the first time. Had Pad Thai again. Atmosphere is just a little nice hole in the wall place Service was good. read more

I have to say unfortunately, while the server was very nice and it was a nice ambiance, overall my meal was lackluster. I ended up getting the pad woon sen - the glass noodles - and it was very bland. It also came out lukewarm. It had nice chunks of egg in it but overall, it didn't have much flavor. When I got home and heated the left overs, I added some soy sauce and lime to kick it up a notch and that helped. I'm not sure what happened there but maybe because it was a slow night, I just wasn't impressed. Maybe to there are other great menu items to try so maybe I'll be back! read more

Came in 30 min before closing and the ladies were so sweet. Still sat us down and never rushed us one bit. The food tasted delicious, and portion is very generous. Soup had a lot of flavors, noodles were thick, shrimp was crunch and filled with sauce. Total bill was about $60 with tip included , price is very fair. read more

Pinto Thai - N-1 Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

1. Service - Service is nice and swift. They'll get the job done, and they'll refill your glasses as soon as they see it go down. I didn't even have to call them over for a refill. This is a-la-carte, so you wait to be-seated, order, and pay at the table. 2. Price - Very reasonably price. Most dishes were about $8-$15. I didn't get a chance to take a picture of their menu, but the prices has gone up compared to the menu that is currently posted by Yelpers. The most recent menu prices on here at the moment is of July 26, 2020. Prices has gone up since then. 3. Ambiance - the outside door and interior is beautifully decorated with wood panels. There is a great deal of Thai culture decor in the restaurant. It's a small place, but it gives you a sense that you are not in Houston. Dress code here is casual. 4. Food - They have lunch specials available from Mon - Fri between 11am-2:30pm. So the portions are cheaper, but also smaller. Regular entrée portions are massive. Based on my first visit, I've ordered their THAI FRIED RICE w/CHICKEN. I loved it. Some people may say that this is bland, however, this is exactly what I wanted. This is like home cook fried rice to me. It's not brown or salted with soy sauce. It's white rice and lightly seasoned with some salt. Perfect for what I wanted that day. If you have a salty tongue, you may think otherwise. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area was clean, and they were on top of their tables. Dirty dishes on the table were not left unattended for more than 5 minutes. I've really enjoyed my first experience, and will definitely come back for more. This is pretty authentic, and I recommend Pinto Thai for any Thai Cravings. read more

The atmosphere is fine. The service is terribly slow. Dishes were not served together. They tried to serve us the wrong food. Other guests who arrived later were served before us. The food is overpriced. I regret visiting this place. read more

Ordered the N-1 Pad Thai wrapped eggs with shrimp to-go and to be honest it was a bit underwhelming. Not only was it $34 for 2 noodle dishes.. but It took 40+ minutes to have my order made and the sauce was way too sweet. If I was dinning in I would have definitely sent it back. I was hoping for a better taste given such great reviews. Maybe I came on an off day /: read more

This place has really good food for a really good price. I usually go for lunch and they have a different special every day. The first time that I went I ordered the drunken noodles. It was delicious. I wasn't a big fan of Thai food till I ate here. I dont know what sauce they used on the drunken noodles, but it was very good. It came out hot and the ingredients tasted very fresh. The second time that I went I ordered the vegetable egg rolls and the chicken Lettuce wraps. The egg rolls was very good and the sauce that they served with them complemented them very well. The chicken Lettuce wraps were also very good. And even though it was an appetizer portion, it was plenty for my meal. I even had leftovers. The Lettuce was fresh and crispy. I'll be back very soon to try something else on the menu. They have totally changed my mind about Thai food. read more

Pinto Thai - E14 Tiger Cried - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Warnings!!! Caution!! to folks with little kids not to go eat at Pinto Thai. Today, 7/30/23, my wife and I stopped to eat lunch with my 4 year daughter, while we were waiting for our order my daughter was playing with few sugar packets under our supervision, and one of the wait stuff (not even our waiter) grabbed the package from my daughter's hands rudely which tremendously scared my daughter and told my daughter she can't play with those packages even more rudely. I had the option of calling the police to arrest the waiter for doing such act to a 4 year old child that but I stayed calm, comforted my daughter and decided to walk away and not eat there. I definitely would not recommend anyone going there with small kids. read more

First time here and service was on point and food was even better (if that's possible). Very comfortable and well decorated inside. We ordered a number of items and hands down the Tom Yum Creamy Soup with Shrimp was the best we've had anywhere. To top it off the Sticky Rice with Mango was amazing. Don't miss this local restaurant. read more

Overall (go food )was pretty good but unfortunately I bit into an unidentifiable plastic object which damaged my back tooth requiring dental work. I spoke to the owner twice regarding this incident and she said she'd look into it further and get back with me and has not- I have attempted to reach her at least 2x/week( this happened over 2 months ago) and have left phone messages to please return my call and it still hasn't happened My advice ,examine your food carefully in order to avoid unexpected dental costs( unless you have a good attorney )! read more

Very pretty pleasant atmosphere - you feel like you're in Thailand. Wonderful service and every dish was delicious.

I use to frequent pinto Thai quite a bit as I was living fairly close to it. But since I had moved last year, I hadn't been to pinto Thai for almost a year and a half, till recently. I am not sure what happened to the service and quality of food from the previous visits. Perhaps a change in management? We came here for lunch and the restaurant was empty. We seated ourselves and a young waiter came to take our orders. We went with a Thai chili beef and a basil fried rice with shrimp. The serving size were very small/petite. I almost felt like as if I was eating a kid's meal. We got spice level 4, and yes the food was hot and spicy, yet lacking taste. There was nothing that stood out about the dishes except that they looked like some protein stir fried with veggies and served with rice. There was no "soul" in the food. I hated the fact that they were not enough protein. Our service was very slow. I did not see the waiter till it was time for our checks. At that time, he got us our refills. We were ready to get the heck out of there. As there are numerous amounts of Thai restaurants in the city, this was probably my last visit to Pinto Thai. read more

Amazing food and amazing service! I love the atmosphere and the people. I would highly recommend coming here when you get the chance.

The decor is so beautiful! there's a chandelier on all tables which was so nice. I had higher expectations for the food since it was rather expensive. all plates were around $13-15. The cheese rolls were okay, but my pad woon sen was really cold when i got it. it didn't have enough flavor and is probably one of the worser plates of pad woon sen i've had. I tried the yellow curry and it was soooo good, id definitely order that instead. The sticky rice was delicious, but rather expensive it was around $8 for such a small plate. our waiter was very friendly and attentive though he was very sweet. read more

We got takeout from Pinto Thai on a Wednesday evening. It was not busy and they were quick to prep the food. Everything was packaged well and easy to find. We were satisfied with our choices. None of the dishes were very spicy, so if we go again in the future, we will ask for a higher spice level. The portion sizes were a bit smaller than what other Thai restaurants in the area offer - their prices are a bit cheaper too, however. There wasn't anything I noticed that really set it apart from the pack. But if you're looking to satisfy a craving for Thai food, this is a good spot. read more

Great Basil beef & great Pad Thai (and they listened to my modification with no bean sprouts!). Chicken dumpling appetizer was a hit with the kids & we got mango sticky rice as takeout. They were super nice and accommodating even though we came late and were the last to leave. We will definitely come back to try their other items. read more

This is a great neighborhood Thai place. Very friendly staff with perfect sized portions. It is my go to spot for lunch.

Owner is extremely rude, hung up on me when I was asking for my order status. Food is always mediocre at best it's not worth giving these people your business when there are better more grateful Thai restaurant business owners just down the street. read more

First and foremost, Pinto Thai makes one of the best Tom Yum soup in Houston. What is even better is there spicy seafood soup called Po Tak, which is not on the menu. And now for the rest ... My wife and I love to order their Thai special dishes. We just asked the waitstaff and they usually came back or one of the owners would with the rundown on what they have. For other good stuff on the menu that we like is the Crispy noodle, which I only recommend to consume at the restaurant. It would not taste as good when you order as take-out. Over all, this is a solid 4-star rating Thai restaurant. The food is good with generous portion. The service is also fast and prompt. read more

This spot was absolutely phenomenal!!!! I moved to Texas from California and have been looking for a spot with get vegan curry. I have been eating Thai food for years and I will say this is one of the best Red curries I have ever had! The flavor and spice level were on point. I loved all the vegan options available and how clearly marked they were on the menu. My dad got the drunken noodles and also really enjoyed his meal. The service was also amazing, water refills and extra napkins were provided before I even had to ask and our server was very friendly. The prices were also very affordable. I will be back for sure! read more

Pinto Thai - Drunken noodles with chicken and red curry with vegan meat . - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sadly underwhelming. I live really close by so it would be cool if they improved their service and quality. I would probably frequent once a week- I love Thai food! I always order yellow curry and pad se ew- and plan to eat off it for a few meals. The yellow curry was pretty average but I called to order (don't use grub hub) and clearly said chicken, my ticket clearly said chicken but I received shrimp in the curry. Which is annoying in and of itself because i didn't realize til I got all the way home. Then I called and she challenged me! I was appalled. But it was clearly shrimp in the curry anyone could see. So I drove back up and she checked for the shrimp lol. The other dish was average but the poor customer service will prevent me from trying this place again read more

Pinto Thai is a solid neighborhood Thai restaurant that serves all the standards. They never seem to be slammed during lunch so it offers a great quiet lunch spot for me near the office when I have a noodle or curry craving. Their Pad Thai comes either spicy or regular, both great, just depends on what you like. Spicy here isn't face melting hot, but it'll get the sinuses running if you're not careful. Also, lunch specials come with a soup, side salad and fried spring roll in case the plate of noodles alone isn't enough. Service has always been friendly and quick. I haven't had any issues and everything always comes out fast and drinks refilled before you notice. I have family nearby and we've picked up take out for dinner. Quality is just as good as lunch and each time the food was ready when they said it would be. All around great littleThai spot. read more
