Wifey wanted to try this restaurant so we decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. The boat noodle tasted like dirt to me and I could barely eat any of it. Maybe it's just me as I've never had it again but I'll definitely not be trying it again. The chicken wings were tiny and dry and had very little flavor. I really wanted to like this place but nothing we ordered impressed us.

I was excited to try traditional Thai boat noodles for the first time but unfortunately this restaurant wasn't for me. The broth had a very earthy, muddy flavor that I personally didn't enjoy. I realize boat noodles are a traditional dish and many people love them, but the taste just wasn't to my palate. The beef was extremely tough and chewy and the portion size was pretty small too. We also ordered the chicken wings and they were disappointing. Six extremely small wings cost $12 and they had almost no flavor. I expected a unique dipping sauce but it tasted like a store bought sweet chili sauce. The staff was pleasant and I appreciate the opportunity to try an authentic dish but based on the portion sizes, tough beef and lack of flavor in the wings, I don't think I'll be returning.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I totally would! And, if I write a review on the same day/night that I go to a restaurant, it means you MUST check it out ASAP!!! It actually rained tonight here in AZ and as I drove home from work, my mind kept thinking "pho!" I drive past a pho place every night and just my luck, they are closed on Wednesdays, smh!!! All good, nothing Yelp can't fix right? Off I went searching for pho restaurants on my Yelp app. Thai Boat Noodles is the second place that popped up. My friend who's visiting for a few days called me as I was approaching home and asked if I wanted pho. Great minds think alike, so I scooped him up and off we went around the corner. No one was inside when we sat down, but let me tell you... I'm GLAD because we got the red carpet treatment!! I read a review that mentioned dumplings and pho, so I told my friend and we were stoked, thinking we could get dim sum AND pho. As we looked at the menu, we realized that review must have been mistaken because we didn't see any dumplings or pho on the menu. At first, I was disappointed. However, that feeling quickly dissipated. We ordered the Thai Chicken Fried Wings to share and we were blown away! They were perfectly crisp on the outside and steaming hot and fully cooked on the inside. They came with a sweet sauce to dip/drizzle and it was the perfect portion to share. We then ordered the Boat Noodle Soup. I ordered mine with beef and no spicy, whereas my friend ordered with mild spice and beef. They offer 4 sauces that are conveniently located on each table: chili flakes, fish sauce, sugar and a spicy vinegar with a baby kick, lol! It was was super filling and I left nothing in that bowl! As you can see from my picture, my friend is a WASTER!! OK, this is the part where you just need to stop reading this review and GOOOOOO!! I've never been to Thailand, so I can't compare, but I was shook!!! The broth was made fresh, just like the wings, and it was very flavorful! They give perfect portions, too. My mouth did the happy dance! We spoke briefly with the owner Pong, and he mentioned he and his wife run the place by themselves. While he runs the front of the house, she runs the back. You gotta love small local business owners! This is a cute place to go to for a quick and super satisfying home cooked meal. Prices are very reasonable and there is accessible parking in the lot right in front. Support this local small business!! Show them some love and you will leave with a happy belly! We sure did. Also follow them on the gram! @thaiboatnoodle.ps

Boat Noodle Soup

Tasty pad thai that was not too wet and good flavor. Appetizing boat noodle soup chicken - though the flavor was new for me. Enjoyed having homemade chicken meatballs. Came Monday lunch time and was seated promptly and food came out quickly.

TL;DR good food and service with a surprise credit card fee It wasn't busy when we arrived at 5:30PM on a Wednesday, but got busier shortly after. Plenty of seating for small groups, tables can be pushed together to accommodate larger parties. Dining area was clean with a TV to watch and decore to admire. We ordered the Papaya Salad, Panang Curry, Thai Chicken Wings, Chicken Boat Noodle Soup. It was all good! 10/10 In terms of spiciness, for me the medium was barely tolerable and the mild was barely there. I recommend getting mild and adding chili that's on the table. I was about to give 5/5 stars until I noticed a credit card fee on the bill. I won't be coming back because of this.

FRESH OFF THE BOAT Thai Boat Noodles PS may rock the boat amongst the valley's Thai restaurants. This is not your dime a dozen Thai restaurant that serves the typical curry variety , pad thai and tom yum. This place has some authentic, home style dishes that can transport your palate down the rivers of Thailand. If you are a REAL foodie, this is the type of place you want to stumble upon, where you will find unique and tasty dishes that are not common fare. Legendary Anthony Bourdain was big proponent for noodles and Southeast Asian cuisine because of his love for the simple ingredients, yet complex flavors. He explained how the food was a perfect mix of salty, sweet, sour, tangy all balanced within the dish. The flavors here were no exception and was perfectly perfect. THAI BOAT NOODLES- Fortunately you have multiple options for your spice level, noodles, and protein, as well as other add- ins, so you can get whatever floats your boat. I chose LEVEL1 heat because I can't handle spicy, and LEVEL1 was just right with a little kick. I went with chicken and vermicelli noodles. The soup was warm and hearty and hit the spot. Great alternative to Pho or Ramen or Beef Noodle soup if you are getting tired of those. PORK LIVER SALAD- salty and tangy to level out the pungent onion and bitter iron flavor of the liver. It was somewhat heavy but refreshing at the same time. The liver was very mild actually, compared to cow liver. If you can eat Bun Bo Hue, you will stomach this, no problem. I do wish the cabbage was cut up more to make it easier to eat as part of the dish. THAI TEA- it was heavy on the tea and very sweet the way it was made that day. I like mine more creamy. Next time I will definitely request different proportions. For those timid to venture into the unknown, they do have a curry dish, pad thai, fried rice, and drunken noodles that may be a safe choice and more familiar to your taste buds. The cool thing is that there are fresh herbs growing right outside the entrance of the building, that I assume are used in the dishes? Can't get any fresher than that! And you thought it was just for decoration. The other big reason to eat here is to SUPPORT LOCAL, support SMALL BUSINESS. This place has somehow been able to survive this cursed site thus far, where no restaurant has been able to stay in business. I feel like this place has their niche serving great food and customers would be coming in by the Boat load if at a more prime location. I hope Thai Boat Noodle PS stays afloat. This diamond in the rough needs to be discovered.

This place was so cute and cozy! I love the variety offered here. I got a pad Thai and it tasted so good! It was so good and affordable for a cute place in. They offer a build your own bowl, and endless appetizers. These were so good. The service was very quick and homie. Absolutely loved this place. Will definitely be back

Thai green tea
Andrew L.

My wife and I came here for a later dinner. We came right before closing and they were still nice enough to accept our sit down order before the kitchen fully closed. We were the only ones there. The good: we locked the Thai boat noodles & drunken noodles. They give you the option to choose your own noodles as well as your protein. There is a dry noodle and soup version of this dish. The soup was very flavorful The bad: not much other than pricing on the Thai green tea. $6 is crazy for something that's probably just powered.

The boat noodle soup is so good here!! I like how you get to build your own bowl with the types of noodles and protein you want in it. The drunken noodles was very flavorful and also excellent! It was my first time having Thai Green Tea and it was super delicious! Nice artworks on the wall. Seating available indoor and plenty of parking spots. Service was excellent!

Not pictured: drunken noodle - hot 5/5 flavorful and spicy. Basil w the flavored sauce was very good. Thai iced tea 3/5 - needed more of the tea flavor Thai iced coffee 3/5 - needed more of the coffee taste Tiew hang 3/5 - it was just okay, my 1st time trying this dish. Maybe it needed a side of lime or something but I felt like it just tasted sweet and bland. The food was just okay, service was okay.

Pork Homemade Fried Meatballs (3 Skewers)
Tia C.

Most AUTHENTIC Thai place we've tried in Arizona. So much flavor! I initially tried the pork meatballs and chicken pad se eew - swoon!!! Tastes like home! Went back the next day for more plus some pad Thai for the BF... first Thai in AZ that he actually liked. Take out was super fast too. We'll be coming back soon!

Authentic papaya salad
Vu N.

Great find in Arizona. Not too many spots anywhere let alone here specialize in boat noodle. Service was great. They were short staffed and they let us know before ordering but food still came out on a timely matter Thai boat noodle was delicious. Make sure u add some vinegar with the chili and a dash of fish sauce. Great flavor. Blue crab papaya salad. Really good. I wish I did order it extra sour. Overall authentic flavors. They didn't hold back on this one Fried chicken wings. Done very well. Not dry. Great size wings Not too small like some spots Bamboo salad. Surprised they had this. And it was excellent. Very unique dish. So good Panang curry was also good. We did share and I mixed all the rice. I just wish I didn't mix all the rice. But had great flavors. Great dish Overall. Excellent restaurant that offers unique dishes while not holding back on authentic. Flavors. Truly a gem in az.

Thai Boat Noodle Soup with chicken and vermicelli noodles
Dawn M.

Date night landed us at this unique Thai restaurant that offers boat noodles. We arrived around 6pm and the place was not busy until midway through our meal. We shared the papaya salad with medium heat. Whew! This was definitely on the hotter side but we finished it! It's one of those heats that is burning your mouth but it's so good, you eat more if it! Then we had the Thai chicken wings...probably one of the best crispy wings I've had! This beats all the local wings I've had. It comes with a love chili sauce and cabbage salad. For entrees we got the panang curry with tofu. Also one of the best fried tofu in a dish that had a good amount of it. The curry itself was flavorful. We got mild on this one and it wasn't spicy at all. Lastly, the star of the show, was the boar noodles. Super rich with flavors of herb and irony. IYKYK! We got it with rice noodles, chicken wig mild spice. Delicious! They do offer different noodles and protein if your choice. Downside is they charge for credit cards. I'd recommend using cash!

Unfortunately, I was really disappointed :( To start, this restaurant is located in a large shopping center, so there is plenty of parking. We came as a party of 4 on a Saturday during lunch and were seated immediately. We sent our orders to the kitchen ourselves with a tablet, which is nice because you don't have to wait for the server each time you want to order more food. Unfortunately, when we received our first round of orders, more than half the dishes were cold, almost as if they've been sitting out for awhile. Even our egg drop soup wasn't warm, which was super disappointing. After we placed our second round of orders, I respectfully asked the server if they could make sure the food comes out warm this time since the first round was so cold. She was apologetic and agreed to let the kitchen know. Our second round was much better. The food was warm, but the first round of food made such a bad impression, I kinda already lost my appetite. Also, the server informed us that they charge an extra fee for any leftover food, even if it's just ONE dumpling. I found this rule to be pretty outrageous to charge an extra fee for just one uneaten dumpling. It's sad to say I will not be coming back here again. After seeing this place all over social media, I was so excited to try it. But unfortunately, I was disappointed. If you are thinking about trying this place, maybe don't do the AYCE option.

Service was a bit on the slower side, but there was only one lady helping at the front and assisting customers. Starting with the favorites: Dan Dan noodles were a tad salty but overall had great flavor The orange chicken and general tso's chicken were both really good and had a sweet sauce to them. I like that the general tso's came with some peppers and celery. Fried shrimp was crispy and loved the batter Fried golden buns were divine. Fried and crispy with a side of condensed milk. The not so favorites: Beef fried rice was horrible, had some kind of chemical taste and the beef cut is very cheap and flabby, yup I said it. Crab puffs, umm where was the crab? Fiery beef noodles were subpar, again with the cheap beef And unfortunately the dumplings are nothing to brag about. Lacked much flavored to the fillings, you aren't missing anything. I would say overall, give it a shot for lunch and you can try a bunch of options to find what you may like.

The clay pot heats up more slowly and more evenly than a metal pot. This slower process makes it more ideal for simmered soups, braised or tender baked meats and perfectly cooked rice. Whenever I make rice in a rice cooker at home, I love to pick at and eat the overcooked portions of rice that accumulate on the sides of the pot. The rice that is cooked in a clay pot comes out a little scorched (not burnt) and absorbs the flavor of the juices and the meat that is cooked with it. It is so good! I had the Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce Claypot Rice (No. 21) and some Spicy Dumplings my first time here. Their menu has a variety of protein choices that you can choose from to enjoy in your claypot rice. They also have Claypot Congee (rice porridge), noodles and a variety of soups on the menu. Everything was wonderful and the service was great. I'm looking forward to a return visit. The parking lot for Claypot Kitchen is small and can be a little crowded at times.
