    I'm vegan & gluten free so I get very excited when I can find pad thai that's safe for me to eat. Ordered takeout and clicked the gf and vegan options. Much to my disappointment, I picked up plain tofu and plain rice noodles. $5 worth of food I could make myself but paid $17 for. No sauce whatsoever. I understand vegan and gf is difficult, but do not offer it if you're not prepared to actually do it. Other places around the cities have no problem doing it. Shocked someone would think that this is what I intended to order and didn't call to check.

    Peanut Curry Tom Kha Kai Soup

    No frills restaurant that's super reliable! The staff is super kind and the food is always good! Great portions for prices it's a great value. I grab takeout from here at least once a month. The food is ready WITHIN 15 MINUTES so it's super quick! It's my ultimate comfort food spot. The peanut curry with tofu or shrimp is so flavorful! I also love their Tom Kha it's some of the best I've ever had. I highly recommend the Pad See Ew (if you're needing some comfort food). I don't recommend the fried rice, however I've only tried the veggie fried rice. It's just not amazing.

    Lunch menu

    Always friendly, quick. I get the Panang Curry med. spice with tofu to go. Consistent each time. Now they have a lunch menu. Ambiance could be improved storage boxes left out etc, but otherwise a great take-out place.

    Being Southeast Asian I am a sucker for Thai food or pretty much anything with fish sauce lol I was a bit hesitant to try this place though because I'm a huge critic when it comes to Thai or Lao food. My party of 4 and I came here for dinner on a weeknight. We noticed right away that the dishes were a bit higher then other Thai places (papaya salad was almost $10, I know I could get papaya for $6 at most places) but no biggy. We ended up ordering the chicken wings, wontons and veggie egg rolls to start. Then carried on to lo mein, pad Thai, red curry and pad see ew. Everything was really just oily...too oily it reminded me of classic Americanized Chinese food. Our lo mein was soggy, the pad Thai wasn't sour or salty- really just sweet. The others were sad too. Honestly we only ate half of our dishes and didn't bother to take the leftovers home. Although our favorite was the spicy wings- they weren't spicy in my book but still delicious and the most flavorful dish we had there. I'm not too sure I would go back anytime soon. And of course parking sucks lol Street parking only.

    We recently ate here again. The first time, it was very busy both with take out and dine in business (there are only 4 tables, but also only one server / take out person). We received much better service the first time. On our second visit, service was very slow. We were told it was because they were so busy, but it was considerably less busy than the first time we were there. Perhaps the first time there was more help in the back. I'm not sure. But I would have thought one person could handle one table and 2 take out orders in the hour we were there. (We were told it was very busy right when we got there, so we were expecting a lot of take out orders coming in, but they didn't.) Their food is quite good. If you live in the area, I would recommend getting take out. It isn't a very good place to dine in. As other reviewers have mentioned, you can't even get a glass of water! But, on the plus side, absolutely nothing was served in plastic, which is a huge pet peeve of mine for dining in.

    Beef red curry (no onions) with white rice and hot tea
    Krishna F.

    First I must say the lady who served and worked in the front was sooooo sweet and adorable! She was too cute! Beef red curry was tasty (could've been less sweet and more spicy though). Hot tea was delicious where I didn't need any creamer, sugar, or honey.

    Waiting for my take out food...

We began with the Roasted Cashews, which were perfectly seasoned and addictive. For mains, the Red Curry was rich, complex, and comforting, but the star of the show was undoubtedly the Pineapple Fried Rice. Hands down, the best version we have ever had--perfectly balanced sweetness and savory depth. The drink pairings were spot on: I enjoyed a lovely glass of Pinot Noir that complemented the spice beautifully, while my partner had a crisp, cold Sapporo.

The service is friendly. We were greeted shortly after entering. The restaurant was fairly busy, with many others dining in, and many takeout orders coming in as well, but we were seated right away! Several employees checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and were enjoying our food throughout our dining experience! They have many vegetarian and gluten free options. They also have some vegan options or items that can be made vegan upon request! We had the cream cheese wontons as an appetizer! The filling was very smooth and creamy and slightly sweet. We also had pad see yew with tofu and pad thai with mock duck. The servings are generous and each entree can easily last for 2 meals. They include a lot of the protein of choice, which I greatly appreciate. Some thai restaurants ask you for your desired level of spice, but we weren't asked here. They were mild (no spice) by default. The pad see ew had a savory, slightly sweet flavor. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the Chinese broccoli had a nice little crunch. The pad thai had a good balance of sweet, salty, and savory. For dessert we had the mango sticky rice! The mango wasn't particularly ripe, but the coconut milk provided the perfect amount of sweetness. I enjoy Nong's Thai and would recommend it!

First, I really wish we had been provided ice for our water since it's served from their room temp tap water vase setup. Also, the menu is VERY hard to read and I had a lot of questions about the ingredients. I just don't feel like our server walked us through the dishes/options very well, which would've helped a ton for first timers! Also, I wanted to try the Massaman for yummy brisket, but sadly they were out of it and didn't let us know until we tried ordering this meal. I wish they were proactive about letting us know it's out. With that being said, the food itself was still very yummy overall! For apps, the Siin Swan (beef jerky) is a MUST! It was a huge portion for the price and honestly one of the best values on the menu. The Thai basil wings were also incredible and definitely worth ordering here (or at Gai Noi or Lat14 if you've never had them before), they're so flavorful and crispy! For the "shareable" dishes, we ordered the green curry octopus and scallop crudo. I'm normally terrified of octopus/tentacles, but this dish was actually super good! The potatoes, peas, and bacon alongside it were delicious. The only thing missing was the green curry sauce didn't have a ton of flavor, which could've been the wow factor that pushed the dish over the top. The scallop crudo was a beautiful presentation, but looked nothing like the photos on Khâluna'a website. It's served cold in a chilled coconut lime broth. I personally LOVE lime and enjoyed it, but everyone else at the table thought it was overpowering. Also, the portion size was shockingly tiny for a dish labeled "to share" and costing $30+. These definitely felt more apps (or even individual entrees) than table shareables. I wish they changed this! The Laksa entrée was SO yummy! The peanut/chili tasting curry broth poured tableside was such a fun touch, and I appreciated it being served separately. Perfectly cooked shrimp, tofu, and all the toppings made this dish one of my favorites of the night. The bucatini, which I believe is one of their signature dishes, was also excellent, but definitely not your classic Italian bucatini, so just know that prior to ordering! It had chili/onion crunch toppings and a very undercooked homemade noodle, but somehow still worked because it was lightly sauced yet packed with flavor. Super unique and delicious! For dessert, the pecan shortbread was amazing with a homemade chocolate mousse that was TO DIE FOR! Don't skip this! Overall, really good eats, beautiful atmosphere, and creative dishes, but definitely a bit hit-or-miss when it comes to portion size and value for the price. I'm curious how their brunch is next!

The flavors here are wildly different. I've been here before with friends and they've ordered the curry, but the curry looked too watery and that kind of should've told me that it wasn't going to be a hit of a Thai place for me. I like closer to a thicker sauce for coconut curry. Usually the Thai places that have more watery coconut curry sauces just hits a little lower & it def shows. Amazing Thai has this same issue lol. Now, this place too... I feel lost without a fav Thai place in Minne lol. The string beans were crunchy in the papaya salad which was great but the entire sauce tasted like MSG & lacks the Lao shrimp paste flavor although it was more grey since I did order the Lao style but not enough shrimp paste flavor as it should have. Either this place has different cooks etc., it is not the same as a year ago or more. I took a few bites of each plate and I wrapped it up to go, and I threw it in the garbage since my stomach was churning had to take some Tums lol. This place, Amazing Thai, & Sawatdee are the bottom 3 for me. Back to the drawing table. (I've never seen an Asian person eat here... I guess that says a lot?)
