When asked what could be made gluten free, I was told some certain noodle dishes. I chose the 53, and was brought undressed, plain noodles with protein and veggies. Literally no sauce or spice or seasoning. When I asked, they said "oh well the sauce they use isn't gluten free, so we just left it off." It was really disappointing to not even be alerted that was the case. That is not gluten free, that is sauce-less noodles. When I let them know, they offered to make me something else gluten free. And then charged me for both dishes, despite taking the first dish back. So disappointing. read more

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon so I knew it wasn't going to be too busy. It's a brand new restaurant so everything is clean and well put together. Menu is fairly large, typical Thai food options with some unique offerings for appetizers. Unfortunately the appetizers all seem large and they don't have half orders. Not good for solo diners so I'll have to go back with friends. My measure of authenticity is Pad Thai. It's typical, but if done well then you know the rest of the menu is decent. At first, I was taken aback by my plate. It looked like a package and all of the typical accompaniments were on the side. I realized the wrap was egg, usually mixed in with the noodles. Very cool! Great flavors, especially after I added some extra lime. Good portion and well cooked. I'll be back! read more

Thai Boran - Chicken Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

We needed a quick place to eat and went for 4th of July. I absolutely love the chicken noodles and my daughter loves the Thai fried rice with extra veggies. The shrimp was mediocre and lacked that flavor punch I was looking for but the chicken noodles flavor made up for it. I typically order out and this was the first time I didn't use a delivery service for their food. The restaurant is very clean and the servers were attentive. When compare with other Thai restaurants near by they are 4 out of 5 stars but again I will always order the chicken noodles. read more

Order via Door Dash. No help from them with issue with my order. Called Thai Boran for 20 min. Did not answer phone. .

Delicious meal! I had the pineapple red curry with shrimp and it was fabulous! Portion size and prices were satisfactory. Lots of tempting and delicious items in the menu I'd like to try so I plan on going back soon. This seems like a very well liked popular restaurant as there were people continuously coming in even to pick up call in orders, and some having to wait for dine in seating to become available. read more

There is a great Thai eatery called Thai Boran at 3236 La Orilla Rd NW. In the same complex as Flix Brewhouse and Theater. Great food and awesome views of the Sandia Mountains. Thinking about this makes me want to go there tonight. read more

Food is never the same. Sometimes great, sometimes tasteless. When the chef was the owner it was consistant.

Decided to come here for brunch with some family and we came a good time before it got packed! The staff was nice and friendly. My family each got curry. They got the Pineapple Chicken, Green Curry, and Massaman Curry. I wish I took a picture of before they all dug in, but it looked so good and we were all hungry. I got the drunken noodles with beef and it was delicious! Noodles are mr favorite! We also got the Crab Rangoon and Goong Ka Borg for our appetizer and that was yummy! Their Mango Sticky Rice sounded good too! I'll have to try that next time when I'm not super full. read more

Favorful food! It's our first time trying this place. Price is a little bit mote expensive compared to other Thai restaurant. We will come again. read more

The only reasons for deduction of one star is the wait times for take out can be more than one hour, and that sometimes you can't get through on the phone to place an order. Although the most recent order only took 30 min. Great food especially the green curry and the pineapple fried rice! But if you request brown rice as a substitute it costs additional $2 or more. read more

I loved Thai Boran. The Pad Thai is always the first thing I order at a Thai restaurant because I love glass noodles and this place didn't disappoint. If you order on site they will serve it in an egg crepe and it was delicious. We also ordered chicken noodles and pineapple fried rice. The food was delicious and I will return again. Prices were very reasonable and they serve a good amount of food. I ordered medium chili, but honestly, I could have gotten hotter. They did bring extra chili just in case. Desserts were great and very refreshing. Small restaurant space, so with COVID restrictions - be prepared to wait. They will take your phone number and will let you wait in your car until a table is ready. It was worth the wait and the servers were great. read more

Great Pad See Ew! Some at the table didn't even get a taste as it was eaten so fast :-) Lots of varied and tasty flavors. It was a busy night, and we had good service. Food was as ordered and, served all at once. All ingredients tasted fresh. A bit Americanized Thai food with lowered spice level and smaller amount of fish sauce - but, quite tasty and recommended read more

The menu is pretty simple. The curry dishes have good flavor and heat. We got hot and it was perfect. I broke out in a full sweat. I'm glad I didn't get Thai hot. Crab Rangoon was Chris's, tasty and creamy. Definitely worth exploring the menu further. read more

The crispy wings are good. The spring roll is ok too. I give a star for that. The entrees were watery, and just not good. Why is the chicken mince meat in the spicy basil dish? None of them were good unfortunately. Or maybe the condition of the men's room made me lose my appetite. read more

Ask for the daily specials when you order over the phone, they aren't listed on the website! There were food and dessert specials posted inside the restaurant when I picked up. Gyoza had a delicious, unique, gingery dipping sauce. Tofu Pad Thai was solid and the huge egg crepe it's covered in was a unique presentation that I haven't seen at other Thai restaurants in the area. It might help keep the noodles warm too... Veggie Spring/Fresh Rolls have carrots, lettuce and rice noodles. We prefer rolls with some herbs like mint or basil and bean sprouts too so won't order this again. Beef salad had great flavors (lime, chile, cilantro) but a lot of the beef pieces were chewy and not tender. Ordered mild but would kick up the spice a notch to medium next time. Ginger (breaded) fried Catfish was our favorite! Ordered mild and that was enough spice with the natural bite of the generous ginger pieces. Colorful bell pepper made for an eye catching dish. The breading did not get soggy even after a few hours of sitting in the sauce. Fish itself was flaky and tasted great - no 'fishy' smell/flavor. read more

So good! Thai Hot is actually very hot. Can't wait to come back to ABQ for more. I had pumpkin curry with tofu and it was absolutely perfect. Delivery was quick and easy. read more

Food quality was really off last night. They also forgot to place my order. I got my food after everyone else in my party had finished eating. No one in my party enjoyed their dishes. Food was very bland. read more

Have eaten there several times and the food has always been exceptional. Service excellent and had delivery the last time which was hot and delicious. read more

I did a take out order and the carry out container was half way filled. I was surprised by the lack of food for the price. I would not recommend this business. read more

I think I've tried every curry here and ALL are delicious. This is my guilty pleasure place. Everything on the menu is fresh and tasty....totally get the mango sticky rice :) read more

We love ordering the curry noodle soup. The flavor is delicious and we also like ordering the pineapple curry with chicken and white rice. We love the money bags appetizers also. The traditional Thai noodles were not our favorite.y last order had the noodles undercooked they were hard and my tofu was not very flavorful. The rest of the order was great. read more

My husband and I were served the glass noodle Thai salad on a large plate in the middle of our table. Each of us had a fork, nothing else. We didn't have our own plates, forks or knives. No serving utensils for the salad. We were supposed to lean over and eat from the plate set in the middle of the table. I don't recommend this restaurant. I leaned over, speared a large knob of noodles, tried to swallow it, and spent the next twenty minutes choking on it. I thought that someone would have to call an ambulance. Fortunately, I managed to get it down. I didn't eat anything else. I felt that my server was totally clueless as to how to serve. read more

This is place has good food period. Haven't really tried a lot on the menu but the pad Thai and pad su wee are bomb.

A friend recommended this place so I took a chance and tried it. I ordered the Yellow Curry with steamed tofu to go. First the positive- the yellow curry had a good flavor and was mild as requested. The tofu was good however the potatoes were barely cooked. The main issue I had was the higher cost ($15.00) for less food than I usually receive at other Thai restaurants. The container only held 3 cups vs. the usual 4 cup container (I measured) and a much smaller container for the rice. Very disappointing and I will not be back. read more

Great food! Service was good and the restaurant is clean and a nice little hole in the wall. Definitely say give this place a try.

Great Thai cuisine in the westside Albuquerque! My go to order is the spicy udon noodles and red curry.

Good quality food. EXCELLENT curries, plus the ginger catfish is really tasty! They give you a lot of food which allows for leftovers :)

We were excited to order out at one of our favorite Thai places. Sadly we were disappointed. We understand the increase to menu items however was not expecting lack of main ingredients in the beef salad. I'd recommend if you choose to charge $14 for a beef salad there should be enough to call it as such or any dish for that matter. Disappointed to pay that amount for a bed of lettuce with sprinkled beef! We won't be back unfortunately. read more

Thai Boran - Thai Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

It's very expensive for Asian food and the serving are tiny! Not a good value for the $$.

Thai Boran is amazing! This is my favorite Thai restaurant in Abq - the restaurant has a great atmosphere and I've never had any issues with orders from here. I've had the Pad Thai, Panang Curry, Thai Fried Rice, and Pad See Ew. My favorite of what I've had so far is probably the Pad See Ew, with Panang Curry at a close second! My parents have also had the BBQ Pork Spare Ribs and they LOVE them - they said they're better than every BBQ restaurant in the Albuquerque area! read more

First time here at this restaurant. I'm sure this  We didn't know if they were open for indoor dining during this time. Went there on a Sunday right when they opened. One of the first families there. Glad we were able to sit inside the restaurant and not outside. It was a cold day that afternoon. Greeted by courteous servers and was seated right away. Limited indoor seating but the decor was nice and welcoming. Looked over the menu and there were so many options. They had many items to choose from and it was really hard to select the ones that we wanted to try. Since we wanted to try them all. But we decided we would try the Tofu Tod (fried pieces of tofu) served with sweet and sour sauce along with ground peanuts. That was definitely tasty because the tofu was really crispy. Next we just went ahead and ordered our entrees. We tried the Pineapple Curry with jasmine rice and Pad Thai noodles with chicken served in an egg wrap. When we eat at a Thai restaurant, we always opt for the Panang Curry and the Pad Thai. This time, we decided to try the Pineapple Curry. A very interesting flavor of pineapple and spice. It was recommended by our waiter. Good choice of entree that is for sure. Thoroughly enjoyed that one. As for the Pad Thai noodles, again they were served in an egg crepe. The first I've ever seen. The Pad Thai was good but I've had better. The chicken was just a little on the dry side for me. Maybe i'll try another entree the next time we visit. We had a great experience here at the restaurant and hope to be back soon. read more

Love this place! The food is always delicious. The service is always great. A great place for a date night or lunch with friends.

I want to start by saying I've eaten here many times and have gotten takeout twice. Today I ordered nearly $70 worth of takeout and was extremely disappointed with the lack of portion size given for the cost. Portions are much larger when dining in and that should not change when ordering takeout. I would not recommend ordering takeout from here. read more

For a small restaurant, this place makes an nice impression. Friendly staff, really tasty and quickly prepared food (I recommend the green curry, Tom kha gai, and pad see ew). read more

Definitely not a 4 on a scale of 5. Very modest portion for the price, will not be going back, there is much much better close by.

You will rarely find me on the Westside of Albuquerque but, when you do, you may find me at Thai Boran. This is our favorite place to grab food before we head to a movie at Flixs Brew House. It's a cute, cozy little Thai restaurant with delicious food. Our favorite thing to order is the chicken curry noodles and the money bags appetizer. I'm sad to say we have never tried anything else on the menu. We are addicted to the chicken curry soup. Check this place out, I promise it will not disappoint. read more

Thai Boran - Money Bags - Thai Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Their service and food is 10/10! I love how friendly their staff is and the quality of the food is amazing!

Over the past three (3) years I've come here for three of my favorite dishes, spicy basil w/grand chicken, Spicy Noodles with Chicken and the sticky rice. I have a feeling the original owners have sold the place because the last two times it's been a total disappointment. The Spicy Noodles no longer has the crispy romaine that used to accompany the dish in abundance, now you'd be lucky to find two leaves. Also the Spicy Basil with chicken has lost the original deep colored tasty sauce and now looks more gravy colored with a slimy mouth feel. Today I also ordered the papaya salad that I occasionally order and at least that was decent if nothing else. You couldn't even taste the Basil in the spicy basil because of that Gravy sauce it was in. Occasionally I would enjoy their Ramen's but haven't tried it for six (6) months or so and I'm afraid I won't ever again. As I said, either it was sold to another owner or they removed the previous cook's they had. This was a true gem before and close to home but I will be traveling to other Thai Cuisine restaurant's from Now On. read more

Always great! Love the sticky rice with mango for dessert! The pad Thai, pineapple fried rice, and money bags are my jam! Very nice staff. I really look forward to dinner or lunch from here. I suggest eating in or picking up. Door Dash, uber, grub hub bring the food after it's cold and not the same. read more
