    Pad Thai Noodles
    Diem P.

    Great neighborhood Thai spot -- casual, friendly, and surprisingly delicious! We were staying in Desert View and wanted something close by without a long drive. This little Thai restaurant turned out to be a great find! It's a very casual, no-frills spot, but the food was excellent -- fresh, flavorful, and authentically seasoned. Our group ordered the Green Curry, Red Curry, and Pad Thai. Everything was delicious, and the Pad Thai in particular was a generous portion -- we ended up packing half of it to take home. The Green Curry had a wonderful mix and variety of vegetables, perfect for anyone who likes their curry on the lighter, veggie-forward side. Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. It's clear they take pride in both their food and hospitality. If you're in the area and craving Thai without driving far, this is a solid choice. Nothing fancy -- just really good food and friendly service that make you want to come back!

    It was time for a visit to Pure Thai. Nice folks here from Thailand. Their son was helping take orders and be the server. There was another gal who was helping with take out orders. The bulk of their business is take out. Many customers came through to pick up their meals while we were dining. We wanted either #31 eggplant basil with chicken or #14 lad na with chicken. #14 won because I remembered the delicious broth with noodles and the freshest of veggies. We asked for mild spiciness. The food was delivered in a large soup bowl definitely enough for two. Oh the broth was just as I remembered. Slightly sweet and a bit of spice in it. The broccoli, carrots and chicken in the soup were cooked to perfection. This dish is so good! Maybe next time, we'll try the other dish. Shared parking lot.

    Pad Thai. The worst I've ever had. Truly.

    We just moved here and wanted to try Thai in the area. We ordered Pad Thai - 1 w/ chicken, 1 w/ beef. Both were truly flavorless. Noodles were over cooked, and there was little to no flavor, excluding the spice. Unfortunately, we would not come back here again because Pad Thai is a staple that should be easy to get perfect.

    Appetizers were delicious and heat can be chosen. Definitely a place to be.  Also, not too noisy.   Delightful.

    Excellent taste, good menu, delightful owner and chef. Can't wait to come back again.

    Menu for take out ohh yes

    Great peanut sauce on the chicken satay and great dumplings Looking to be back here often. Very good!

    This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants and I enjoy their food every time. The Pad Thai and the mango sticky rice are two of their best items on the menu and I could recommend them endlessly. The service was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Our food came out quickly and they were extremely attentive. I'd highly suggest stopping by for excellent quality food!

    Good place for some excellent quality Thai food. I loved the quantity and it was tasty. First time here and coming back again for sure as I am regular Thai food personnel. Staff is friendly and accommodating so I felt welcoming. As it was my first time, I went ahead with something (Druken Noodles) that I always use to determine the quality of the place and it was great. Clean place with variety of food options. Highly recommend!

    Run don't walk! I placed a take out order for me and my sister for lunch. I ordered the Green Curry with chicken (spicy level 2) and Chicken Satay. The curry came with 1 cup of rice. Man oh man! The Green Curry was the BEST Green Curry I've ever tasted! My sister said the same thing too. It was so flavorful and tasty. The spiciness was just right! I wish I can do real spicy but my stomach can't handle it. We also enjoyed the Chicken Satay. It was a good size and not skimpy. The restaurant has a cute covered front patio seating. The staff were friendly when I got my order. I will definitely come back here whenever I'm back in Cave Creek, Arizona!

    Awful. Food was cold. When I showed up per app. telling me food was ready- my order had been sitting for an hour. I ordered Thai Pad with Chicken. I asked for the order to be remade and there was clearly dismay. Too bad because, I didn't want to chance food poisoning. Price point is ridiculously high. Zero atmosphere. I thought I'd ordered from the Thai place in the heart of Cave Creek but. I mistakenly ordered from here. Save your money. Make a PB & J instead.

    Yes, this restaurant is perfection! The owner Noy is absolutely delightful and she is about the most welcoming and friendliest and most engaging lady chef I've ever dealt with. Her curries are absolute perfection with the green one being my favorite. I'm slowly making my way through the menu and everything so far has been exquisite. The restaurant is kept impeccably clean and the service is always very friendly and attentive. I will see you again very soon.!

    2.00 for this joke of a salad! Omg! Worst experience ever!

The first time I stopped in for a glass of wine just to check it out -- they were about to close, but the staff was so kind and welcoming. I even saw a roadrunner on the patio, which honestly felt like the perfect Arizona welcome moment I went back yesterday after a 4-mile hike at Jewel of Cave Creek and had a turkey, avocado, and bacon sandwich with chips -- simple but absolutely delicious. Fresh, satisfying, and exactly what I needed after being out on the trails. Prices are very reasonable too. The vibe here is what makes it special. It's busy but relaxed, cozy but open, and you order at the counter which keeps everything easy and casual. They offer coffee, wine, pastries, sandwiches, salads, and more -- perfect for a quick bite or a chill afternoon. I especially love the setting surrounded by the little Cave Creek shops. It has such a peaceful, welcoming energy and is a great spot to sit outside, enjoy lunch, and soak in the Arizona sunshine. Whether you're hiking nearby or just exploring the area, this is a wonderful place to stop. I'll definitely be back

Arrived on a Sunday at 1 pm and were seated in a corner booth. All wood booth, seating is tight for 7 and would be near impossible for 8. Hard straight up back. Glad i brought coat to sit on although it was a bit cool inside too. Old western style decor inside. A little crowded and noisy but since we were huddled in a tight booth, we had good conversations compared to other places. Seating outside with fair number of people but heaters didn't appear to be on - I would have been cold outside. Mostly picnic table seating outside; sitting next to road although fenced in. Some pups with patrons. Service good overall but fairly slow. Lilly had to go verify the special for the day. My burger came several minutes after other entries arrived - weird. I had the horny toad burger with fries - great fries! Burger had brisket with bacon too - it was fairly good. We also had onion rings as appetizer which were fairly good beer battered style. Others had the Cod and taco's, but the bday girl had liver an onions which she said were very good. Everyone liked the taco's and chips that came with them. The creamed corn was just ok, and coleslaw fairly good. No offer of little dessert for bday girl which was surprising given we told the waitress this and made reservation just for the occasion. Drinks were good overall. Beautiful drive to get there, but doubtful we will be back much. Value was ok for what we got but nothing tremendously special.

    I have been so desperate to love this restaurant because I love Thai and this is a local location…read more Plus the people seem so very nice. But for some reason, I just haven't had a great food experience at this location and sadly will likely not go back. We have tried Z's on a few occasions. The last time was about a year ago (before most recent trip). We went with a group and two people in the group got sick afterwards. One was my husband. This followed another occasion of someone getting sick (in fact, someone else in the group said they didn't want to go there for this reason). So, after that incident, we said we weren't going back. Fast forward a year and I thought why not give it another try? The reviews seemed good recently and maybe this was a fluke. So last night, we returned for another try. They were very busy for a Monday night so they obviously don't need more customers. And the staff, though clearly overworked, is friendly and nice as usual. I ordered a larb salad (something I always get at every Thai restaurant). Unfortunately, the chicken in the salad was inedible. I kept trying to eat it because the dressing was on point, but the chicken tasted like something that someone heated up too long in the microwave. And I couldn't pick it out. So disappointing. You can see it looks bad in the images. I didn't say anything because I hate complaining at restaurants. I took it home and tried it again in case I was being sensitive but it was still bad and I threw it out. We also ordered green curry with tofu and pad Thai with pork. Both were enjoyable!! And the green curry had a nice heat kick though I added spice which they eventually brought when I asked. One note: I was not exactly sure how to eat the green curry because it was served in a small bowl place on a plate with the rice in the side. Adding the curry to the plate caused the sauce to run all around but there was not enough room in the bowl to add the rice. No big deal but just weird and messy plating experience. We didn't end up getting any alcoholic drinks. But do be aware that there must not be free refills because I was charged for two lemonades. All in all, I wish this restaurant well. Obviously people love it and keep returning. The owners/staff are very friendly and nice. I just love Thai too much to keep returning to mediocre experiences when there are other options in the area.

    The most disappointing experience I have had in Cave Creek by far!! I initially came in by myself…read moreand let them know I was waiting for my family. I stood at the front for about 5 minutes before being acknowledged, and when I was, I was just told to "sit anywhere." After sitting down, I wasn't given menus and ended up having to go get them myself. Another 5 minutes passed before a server came over. When I asked about the specials that were advertised online, I was initially told there were no specials at all. Then she said, "oh, like happy hour?" which just felt dismissive and rude. We came specifically because of the Taco Tuesday and happy hour deals listed online (which even showed a date of April 7), but none of that was honored, she said that those specials were for the RODEO only. By the time my husband and daughter arrived, we realized there weren't even tacos included on the happy hour menu, which made the whole experience feel even more misleading. Between the lack of organization, slow service, and not honoring clearly advertised specials, the experience just didn't match expectations. It's frustrating to choose a place based on what's promoted and then have a completely different experience when you arrive.
