This has been one of my favorite Thai spots in Madison for over 10 years. My go-to is either the drunken noodles or the pad see ew. Back in the day they used to only accept cash, but they take cards now which I really appreciate. There aren't a ton of places to sit and the space could use a good clean, but the food is consistently food and the servers are incredibly sweet. read more

We loved this place. We were huge fans of the Lao Thai food at Vientiane Palace, which closed a few years back. We hadn't tried this place but gave it a shot when in Madison a couple of weeks ago. Delicious! Totally loved it. I wish I found it years ago. Nicest guy too. He made me a custom Lao Thai dish I haven't been able to find anywhere else. I ate it before I could take a picture, but it was great! read more

Wait 50min without food. Very bad service. Asked me to take food from kitchen to table myself

Food: 3 Service: 3 Ambiance: 3 Tip: Cash Only I gave this place a 3 because it's not the best Thai I have ever had in terms of food, service or ambiance. That said, the experience was good. This place has been here a very long time because of the student and local faithful. The family that runs this place is very sweet and hospitable, but they are understaffed. We came in shortly after the lunch hour and it took a good 10 minutes to get served drinks. They have stopped serving several of their items, but they remain on the menu so be aware. We had the Chicken Satay, Panang Curry with Chicken, and Chicken Pad Thai. The Chicken Satay was a little dry. The Panang Curry needed more coconut milk, and the Chicken Pad Thai was perfect. read more

Food was amazing and full of flavor. Definitely recommend, service was a bit slow but worth the wait. Also have a cozy patio which seems like a sweet spot to eat when weather gets warmer. read more

Easily my favorite restaurant on state street. The soups are fragrant and delicious. The stir fry dishes show great use of wok-hay. The curry is just fine in my opinion. A warning though. If you come during peak hours, especially with a group, be prepared to wait up to 25-40 minutes for your food as it's just one guy making the food. Coming multiple times will be rewarding as he will remember you and likely also your preferences in how you like your food made. I recommend the Kao Poun (a type of coconut noodle soup), Drunken Noodles, and Tom Yum noodle soup. If you ask for anything spicy it will actually be rather spicy. Vegetarians and Vegans also have a lot of good options here. read more

I took a group here for lunch and while we should have called ahead, we ended up have a great and delicious lunch! Go to the red banner on state street that says "Rising Sons" and try this place. The food is fresh and delicious, so much flavor. We shared veggie and pork egg rolls, rangoons, pad thai, curry, soup. Everything was absolutely delicious. The windows were open so air could flow through and it's bigger on the inside than it looks from the street. They also do pickup/carry out, which I recommend too! read more

Great food. super underrated spot. If you like Thai food this place will be perfect for you. I wish I knew about this spot years ago.

Rising Sons is allowing indoor seating as of December 2021. My friend always raves about this place and it did not disappoint! I got the Panang Curry w/ tofu, and my buds got the Pad See Ew w/ chicken and the Tom Kha. The dishes all look so appetizing, but guys, the SMELL. The aroma is just as enticing as the beauty of each dish. The Panang Curry sports a gorgeous, orange color and the Tom Kha looks so well seasoned. The ol' saying "If it looks good, it must taste good" definitely rings true here, because the authentic flavors match up with their irresistible looks. The portions are also hearty and filling, allowing for at least 2 meals from each serving. If you get any curry, keep in mind they do not have brown rice and the rice:curry ratio is a bit off, as seen in the image. But you can always take some rice to go as the curry portion is definitely made with leftovers in mind! The one downside to Rising Sons is that the service is a bit hard to swallow. The owner is an incredibly hard worker and seems to run the show all on his own. Yes, that means the man who seats you at your table is also going to cook your food and ring up your bill. As a result of this, everything takes quite a bit longer and he doesn't have time for many pleasantries as you can imagine. So maybe cut out more space in your schedule for lunch/dinner if you were thinking of coming here, because the food is worth it! read more

The food tasted great, BUT... - Poor environment, bad lighting, table was sticky - The menu prices were wrong, and at the register they charged significantly more than was listed - The food gave me mild diarrhea like 10 minutes after leaving If they fixed these problems it could be a great place. Weirdly I'm still a little tempted to go back despite the intestinal distress. read more

Rising Sons is an awesome Thai restaurant with a bit of an identity crisis. It's Lao/Thai, but it calls itself a deli, and the decor is left over from the soul food restaurant that used to be in the space. All this combined makes up the charm of the place! I highly recommend the crab rangoons - they're my favorite crab rangoons in Madison, they have tons of filling. I also really like the squash curry. They give you plenty of veggies and rice to go with it! One complaint is that it is cash only, so plan for that! read more

Not the best Thai/Vietnamese but decent for Madison. Also the prices are extremely cheap but they only take cash. Go to Walgreens and get cash back. I got the coconut curry soup with veggies. It was simple yet delicious. The veggies were definitely from a bag though. My friend got the soy sauce pho which was okay - a bit salty in my taste. But at 10 dollars can't complain! read more

Curry was watery and bland. We ordered the red curry with chicken. However, I could taste very little flavor in the curry. It was as thin as water. The veggies tasted soggy and not enriched by the flavor of a rich curry. Given that Rising Sons is the only Thai restaurant in downtown Madison, I would have expected better. Please someone open a decent Thai restaurant. I'm tired of schlepping up to Willy street. read more

Visited on a weekend night in the late summer around dinner time. Ordered Pad Thai with shrimp and a curry with chicken. Pros: outside dining is very nice. Secluded with exposed brick and shade. Prices were very reasonable. Cons: The food wasn't great. The sauce on the Pad Thai was odd. The curry was a little better but still not something I would order again. The service was very inattentive. read more

Rising Sons Deli - Pad Thai with shrimp and curry. - Thai Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

I have gotten only take out-just a disclaimer. Is this the most amazing Thai restaurant in the world, I would say no. But on the plus side, the prices are very responsible and portions are great. The food does hit the spot when you are craving Thai but do not want to spend much or go out to eat. I usually get a curry for my to-go order. The curry does have good flavor but is a little watery. I really like it when curries are cooked down and it makes the sauce a little bit thicker. The phone does come up very fast when you order it so it may be that they do not cook it down as much. I by no means am an expert but just a thought. Overall is the food bad, absolutely not. It is not amazing either though but for the price you cannot really beat what you are getting. read more

Their pad Thai tastes exactly like pad Thai. Their pad pet basil (with tofu) tasted exactly like pad pet basil (with tofu). Both were amazing. I need to know how to make the tofu. The candy was COMPLIMENTARY! Everything about this experience gave me chills! Best eaten at a park at sunset. read more

This is my go to place when it's freezing. I love their noodle soups. Especially in a day in the single digits. I have been getting the Pho and Tom Yum Noodle soups. It's a large portion that I can actually finish without regretting it. The soup broths are perfectly spiced. The pho today didn't taste like beef broth, but it's ok. It was still a soup and it warmed me up. I would also recommend all of their appetizers. I like getting sticky rice too. It comes in a small basket. Seating is limited so if you come with a larger group, the max would probably be 6 people. Great for 1-1 lunch meetings. They also have individual seats at their "bar" area in the middle of the restaurant. I probably come in at least once every two weeks or so. I highly recommend this place. read more

Let's get the important point out of the way first. ~~ Cash only ~~ This was one of the first places I visited when I initially set food in Madison years and years ago, so it brings back many fond memories. I remember being impressed with their Penang Green Curry. As for all their curries, you get a choice of tofu, meat or shrimp (shrimps come at an extra). For the green curry there're eggplant and bamboo shoots, some of my favorite ingredients in my curry. It also comes with generous serving of rice to go with the rich curry gravy. Over the course of several years we've been through almost the entire menu. I like their curries, noodle soups, tom yum and drunken noodles. But sad to say I think things have changed somewhat, on my recent trips I've been less impressed with Rising Sons. Maybe the saying that your appetite changes over time is true? Or maybe there are a lot of newer options that are more refreshing popping up in town over the years. Not imagining myself going back unless things change back to the way they were before. read more

We did not have the best experience with takeout here. We ordered Pad Thai and Pad Kapao, both with Tofu. The food was okay, portion sizes were fine (if slightly small), the containers with the food were styrofoam and leaky so we lost a lot of sauce from our Pad Kapao. The biggest issue: we checked the "make it vegan" box for the Pad Thai expecting them to remove the egg from the dish - but when we got home we saw that there was a lot of egg in the dish. Ordering takeout when vegan is always a risk, and this has happened to us before, and usually we contact the restaurants to make them aware of the issue. So we called up to let the Rising Sons to let them know of their mistake with our order. We shared our feedback in a very diplomatic and nice way, and the person who answered the phone was defensive and unapologetic. He repeatedly stated that we didn't specify "no egg" in the comments - which we replied we would've done if there hadn't been a "make it vegan" option to check off in the online ordering system. When we tried to give the feedback that having that option but then disregarding it was misleading, he did not hear us out. All in all - we'd have given this place another try if they were apologetic about the mistake with our order, but the response really turned us off. We'll be sticking to other restaurants when craving Thai in the future. read more

My husband and I decided to check out this place yesterday and it wasn't too bad. The pad thai was normal, alittle too much tamarind flavor but not bad. The husband had pho and it was alright. Not as flavorful though. The papaya salad was what got me. I loved it! It had a perfect blend of sweetness and sourness. I am a huge papaya salad lover and it was amazing. We do like that they had variety of food. We would like to come back and try the curries and soups. Their service was okay. They didn't check up on us during our meal and didn't say much to us but that's usually how Asian resturants are so we are use to it. Just thought I'd point that out in case you were expecting amazing customer service. read more

Needed a quick but filling meal between films at the Wisconsin Union and the Chazen during the Wisconsin Film Festival. It's been a few years since I dropped into Rising Sons Deli. It didn't disappoint. I was the only customer but slowly other tables filled and one guy came in for takeout. The food was served without delay and was very satisfying. Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodle): thick rice noodles glisten in a dark soy sauce, the crispy vegetables - carrots, bok choy - and a sweet and spicy seasoning round out flavors and texture ($9.95) plus chicken ($1.00). They do not accept cards but did take a local check. The place is clean, neat, and the service is friendly and attentive. Now back to the movies. read more

It was raining. We were seeking shelter. Saw the THAI and figured, why not? Two stars for the food. It wasn't the best thai food I've ever had..but it wasn't the worst either. We got the padthai and the red curry (per the waiter's suggestion). Not super memorable, but authentic enough for the midwest. The noodles were al dente and the curry had a nice pop of spicy. What more do you expect?.. Although, if you consider yourself a thai food connoisseur, you should probably steer clear of this place. Me? I'll take what I can get. One additional star for service. We had a third person join our table halfway into our meal, and not only did the waiter not insist that he order something, he actually offered to pour a cup of water for our friend. How sweet. read more

We arrived at Rising Sun Deli around 12:30 on a weekday. A waitress greeted us a we walked in and told us to take a seat wherever we liked. We sat near the door. I would not recommend this on a cold Wisconsin day. Every time a customer came in or out a cold wind came with them. We started with the kalapao and beef jerky. The jerky was sweet, tangy, chewy, not dry and utterly delicious. I could eat a plate of that. The kalapao is a sweet bun filled with pork and hard-boiled egg. It was rustic looking but the sweet but and the savory filling was a winning combination. I loved it! For our entrees and I had the pho and my dining companion had a duck soup. The broth in the pho was spot on - beefy, layered with flavor and complexity. Usually pho comes accompanied by a plate of condiments such as basil, bean sprouts, jalapenos, and lime. At Rising Suns Deli they were already in the pho. There was soy sauce, fish sauce, hoisin sauce and sriracha at the table to enhance the pho as desired. Even though I couldn't add my own proportions as desired, I was extremely pleased with the pho. My dining companion said the flavors of the duck soup were also spot on. There was quite a bit of extra fat and gristle though. One thing to keep in mind is that Rising Suns Deli does not take credit-cards, so you will need to bring cash. There were many dishes on the menu I look forward to trying. This probably isn't a place you would go if you are trying to impress a date, but I can see myself going back over and over. Good food, decent prices, reasonable service. read more

I must have walked by this place a thousand times--I think that perhaps the name of the restaurant confused me a bit, because "Rising Sons Deli" doesn't evoke Thai and Laotian cuisine in my mind. But this last Saturday, as I was idly waiting for my sister near our usual meet-up spot, I happened to look at the menu. I was intrigued, and convinced my sister to give it a try with me. We stopped in at 11:30: the place was deserted, which always makes me a tad nervous. On the other hand, the Packer game was about to start, so...we decided to risk it. It was flippin' cold outside, so I wanted soup: pho, to be exact. I was informed by the friendly waiter that they were out of the type I wanted, so I ordered their standard pho with beef and meatballs. My sister ordered the pad Thai. I would say that both dishes were solid, but not rave-worthy. I'm accustomed to pho being served with a separate plate piled high with herbs (basil is a MUST!), sprouts, and jalapeños--but mine came out with a tiny smattering of cilantro and a few sprouts in the bowl. I had to ask for fish sauce and sriracha. That being said, the broth had a really nice flavor, and the soup was really tasty overall. From my one bite of the sis' pad Thai, it seemed very tasty. All in all, we weren't blown away, but we weren't disappointed either. And the fact that there are three Pokéstops in range of the restaurant didn't hurt. AND, I almost forgot: NO CARDS ACCEPTED. Luckily, sis had cash, but, despite the signage explaining the credit card ban, I'm sure that there have been "situations". read more

Boring and bland... don't bother! My husband was in the mood for Thai, and this was the location closest to us. Upon viewing the photos, I was impressed with their spring rolls. Little did I know that the spring rolls would not come out looking like they did in the photo. We arrived to the restaurant, which was a short walk from the parking garage. When we approached the door I could sense that it was a bit of a "hole in the wall;" however, I didn't mind. These type of places can be known for having the best food in town! Upon entering and taking a seat, I glanced around at the eccentric décor; items that looked like they belonged in a child's bedroom including a floor lamp hanging from the ceiling. Anyhow, enough about the décor. Let's get to the most important part: the food. We ordered the Spring Rolls, vegetarian, to start with and Curry Squash and some sort of stir fry (can't recall the name). The rolls were the most basic thing I have ever seen; I've made fancier spring rolls at home. They had rice noodles, lettuce, carrots, and cucumbers. The sauce was reminiscent of the same sweet chili sauce I use at home, a store bought variety from Walmart. It is important to note that both entrees came out super fast. The curry contained tofu, broccoli, squash, and was a huge disappointment. The food did not taste as if it had been cooked in the same vessel as the sauce. Literally, the curry was dripping off all the food as I picked it up with the fork. Despite the strong flavors of curry, the food was bland. I believe that they pick the food from a line then add the sauce; the dishes are not actually made fresh to order or cooked as a whole. This would also explain why they came out so fast! It may also explain why the restaurant was empty. I have definitely had better Thai food and would not recommend this restaurant, or return. When I left and walked past all the other restaurants on the street, on the way back to the parking garage, I was upset that I had not suggested to hubs that we try one of those! read more

I was the only one to walk in on a rainy Saturday. I ordered pad c ew and squash curry to go, very popular classic dishes. Then my friend texted that she already ate so I cancelled the curry while the owner was still right there in front of me. He walked away and came back and said 'what about the curry?' I just gave him a blank look and said I don't want it. He seemed very annoyed. Then he asked if I wanted change. I have him a 20 and the food was less than 10 so that was odd. Then he went back and came back and said what about the curry? Again I said I didn't want it and he asked me again about wanting change and I just yea. Then two minutes later he came with my to go box. The food was gross. It looked old and smelled awful. I didn't even bother to go back and ask him about it since he couldn't speak English. read more

I love Rising Sons. It's the perfect place to go for a good portion of lunch food at a great price. I've had their Tom Yum soup, drunken noodles, penang curry, etc and all were cooked super well. The flavors were there, and the spice was well represented (such that if I ordered spicy, it was actually spicy. If I ordered medium spice, it had a kick but not overpowering). The servers are nice and attentive, and the food is great. read more

Having worked at a fantastic Thai delivery/take-out place for 1.5 years I must say I'm quite disappointed. The "Drunken Noodles" featured dry chicken and slimy, mushy noodles. The most disappointing part however was the very poor way they packed the delivery order. Leaky, plastic curry containers stacked on top of the styrofoam noodle container made half of my curry spill out into the bag during the delivery process. I understand the delivery driver is likely responsible for part of it, but it was also packed poorly. Might give them another try if the curry is any good, but skip the noodles. read more

I walked in here hoping I could satisfy my noodle soup craving but was sorely disappointed. I ordered the BBQ Pork Noodle Soup. When my dish arrived, I immediately noticed that the supposed "egg noodles" mentioned in the menu were definitely just instant ramen noodles. Strike one. I asked the server why they used instant ramen when the menu said egg noodles, and he told me that what I was eating was "Vietnamese style egg noodles." I know what Vietnamese egg noodles are, and this was definitely not it. Trying to fool me into believing that my food was authentic? Strike two. Now, if the soup was actually good on top of that maybe I would have forgiven it, but the pork and vegetables were really not very memorable either. Strike three. Considering that the food was pretty much a waste of my time and money, I definitely will not come back. read more

It's rare I'm this enthusiastic about a restaurant, but having eaten here three times in the past month, I have extraordinarily few complaints. Having lived in a Lao/Thai-heavy neighborhood in San Francisco, I thought I was doomed to a life of sub-par fare elsewhere, but this place has saved me from such a fate. I'm particularly partial to two dishes. The first is the panaeng curry. While it is a bit oily, it bursts with rich, well-developed flavors and colors. It's the perfect level of spicy to warm you up when trudging through campus in the winter. The variety of vegetables - and in particular the mushrooms, which I normally can't stand - is superb, and the meat is never too tough. The second is the drunken noodles, which seems to be their most popular dish. The noodles are fresh and their texture strikes the perfect balance between firm and tender. The Chinese broccoli is fresh and flavorful, and the basil adds a strong fresh flavor without overwhelming the rest of the ingredients. As some have mentioned, the service is less than stellar and there is limited seating if you don't want to sit at the bar. However, I like to come here for a "working lunch," where I can make some headway on reading while being allowed to eat at a leisurely pace. They have never tried to hurry me out the door or continually interrupt me to see if I need anything else. The service is also markedly better closer to normal meal times than, say, in the middle of the afternoon. The staff is also quite cheerful and friendly when they wait on you. I can't say I remember much about the decor, but I'd say that's less a problem with the decor than a compliment to how amazing the food is. The lack of music blasting is also a welcome rarity among campus eateries. I'm surprised this doesn't have a higher rating, but it's fine by me - most of the State St. places I like are already so crowded that it's nice to have this semi-hidden gem. read more

A good old dirty looking asian restaurant. My kind of place! Love the beef jerky and sticky rice, but if you're going out of your way to come here for that specifically, be sure to call ahead and make sure they have some. Stopped in on the way to the dells once, and they didn't have the beef jerky that weekend. But that's okay, we ate anyway. And it was delicious! Cash only, there is an ATM not too far away on the sidewalk. read more

Well, I kept falling off the ledge at the bar where I had my noodles (doh!), and had to find my own napkins and stuff... but, whatever! The staff were so sweet and nice. I had the Kao Poun- it was DELICIOUS!!! Rah! The guy working behind the counter suggested it, and said he 'grew up eating it'. Lucky guy... The crab Rangoon edges were a bit tough, and the Kalapao was kinda dry, but- still good! I will return. It's nice to know there is yet another place I can sit at a counter and have a big-ass bowl of delicious noodles. read more

Overpriced, salty, and oblivious. The only, and very last time I ate at Rising Sons Deli it took over an hour for my simple order to be made. While staring at the chefs I saw one take a ladle, dip it into a broth, sip from it, and then keep stirring. Our food came promptly after that... the lady behind me wasn't so easy, already being there for over 90 minutes waiting for her duck. Her food finally came as we were leaving. She had much more patience than me. What surprises me about the entire episode is not the laid-back attitude of the wait staff, but the completely laid-back, head-down, willfully ignorant cooks (owners?) that walked very slowly and conversed quietly while they had a wall full of tickets symbolizing the 20 orders waiting to be made. Every new customer walking in the door got a lecture from the staff, "just so you know, we have about a 2 hour wait for food." Now, I could sympathize if it were a 2 hour wait for a table, but for food? Something is wrong here. When our food finally came it was too salty, and every vegetable tasted like it came from an old freezer. Ladling yours. Never going back. read more

My only visit and experience was yesterday for take-out. Theres a decent sized bar and comfy stools you can sit at, or a few tables/ booths i think. Its a long and narrow space, but seems to work. I stopped in around 2:30 in the afternoon and it was super quiet in there. I ordered the vegetarian mango curry. When I got it home and opened it up I was srprised to see how liquidy and soupy it was, compared to any other mango curries I've had in the past from other restaurants. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious, fresh and tasty it was. Full of flavor, just a hint of spice (I asked for mild) and super fresh and tender veggies, cooked just right. I'll absolutely go again and will try some of their other dishes next time I'm in the area. As others have mentioned, bring cash... or a checkbook (he offered that to me as a choice, believe it or not!). If you forget to have cash on hand there is a convenient ATM just a few steps away, which brought the cost of my lunch to $3.25 more than I had intended. Decent and reasonable prices to boot. read more

This was always a favorite place when we were in college, and coming back to it now it's still just as good. Their noodle dishes and fried rice are really great- the Drunken Noodles with tofu (and some added chili sauce) is my favorite! Decor is super weird because this place used to be a 50s diner and they never redecorated, but if you can get over that, it's fine :) Don't forget- this place is CASH ONLY! read more

I definitely have love for Rising Sons. BUT to have the best experience, I have a few rcommendations: 1. Never eat in. Or eat in.. but only once, for the experience. It is kind of a bizarre place with random decorations and such. Take-out is the way to go. 2. Pick the right things on the menu! Highly recommend Drunken noodles, Pad Thai, Tom Yum soup (HUGE). 3. For an appetizer, I always get the vegetarian spring rolls, but I would not recommend them. They are literally rice paper filled with lettuce and some vermicelli noodles... Don't know why I always get them, but I do. My only complaints: I always wish they had appetizer soups instead of the huge portions! I love the Tom Yum soup but never order it because it is massive and I would rather get a stir fry or noodle dish. read more

This little hole in the wall restaurant on State street is a secret gem amongst all the restaurants/stores on State. The curries here a little on the thin side and tend to be smaller portions, but are packed with flavor (I've had the panang and massamun). The Kao Poon is really the star for me...a perfect balance of soothing with a little spice. Customer service has never been great unfortunately, but the food is worth the aloof staff members. read more
