    Chang Thai Beer

    Incredibly fresh ingredients, beautifully harmonious flavors in every dish we tried. Excellent service! Very relaxing, spacious ambiance. Will come back again!

    This is in my top two Thai places in the area. Might actually be my top one! The food is very fresh and authentic, which I love because this place has really made Thai my comfort food. Service is great during the day time, not sure about evening time. This place can probably be a disco at night, they have a huge stage area which really peaks my interest.

    I've been in Houston now, for almost a Month and am trying different/exotic places to eat at. Houston is known for their diverse cuisine. If you're looking for some authentic Thai Food in the area, and if you're like me. I have my staple appetizers/food that I try at different places/restaurants. You should give this place a try. They have a wide selection of appetizers and you will not get disappointed. If you're like me, I love FRIED FOOD and APPETIZERS. Simple and easy to eat and no surprises. So, you would think, lol... So, here are some of the food that I tried here and what I think (in my own opinion) on how they tasted like. The Thai sausages are a little bit crispy on the outside but juicy in the inside. Thai Beef Jerky, I was a little skeptical because they can be a little tough, chewy and dry. But, this one is tender and juicy as well. Thai Crispy wings are a little bit breaded. Crispy and juicy at the same time. By the way. I always pair my sausage and beef jerky with sticky rice. So, don't forget to order sticky rice on the side. The last one is called Nam Khao Tod. It's a combination of crushed rice w/cilantro, lime juice, peanuts, crispy pork skin seasoned with spices. (This can be really spicy. Make sure you let them know how spicy or mild you want it to be) I learned the hard way, I guess as you get older, your heat tolerance goes down. Over all, the food here is great. Not to mention, the waiters are very nice, friendly and patient. Will definitely come back again the next time I'm in town.

    My sister took me here for my birthday lunch, what a wonderful experience! From the minute we walked in through the door we were greeted by a friendly face. This food was wonderful on the palate, the service was equally as wonderful. We both had the Thai Iced Tea, very refreshing, I had the Hawaiian fried rice with shrimp, medium spicy I will be coming back, one of my new favorites!

    Salar machu kreung.

    Authentic Khmer food. Salar machu kreung is on point. Salad is on point. Beef and bahok sauce is good also. Im impressed first time here. Remind me of back home in california.

    Tofu pad thai

    Came here during lunchtime and I should've seen the red flag. I was the only customer at the restaurant. Thar says a lot. I gave them the benefit of a doubt and try it anyway. I ordered off the lunch menu and got tofu pad Thai. When the food came out instantly I knew it didn't look fresh. The pad Thai looks like it was already made and reheated. Base on the texture the noodles were very soft almost mushy. I ate it anyway since I was there. The guy never brought out my soup thats suppose to come with all lunch order. When it was time to get the bill the guy ask if everything is ok and when I asked how come I didn't get the soup he said that's for lunch menu and if I wanted the soup. I said yes, I ordered off the lunch menu so yes I want it to go since I was done. After I got my bill I notice he did a customize amount and charged me extra for the soup. All in all this place isn't that great and I won't be returning.

    Seating area and some kind of event room.

    Stopped by this place on the way back from the airport. We arrived around 6pm and we were the only ones there. I ordered shrimp and chicken fresh spring rolls, Pad Wood Sen and Tom Kha soup. The first two were tasty but the Tom Kha was completely off in flavor. It had a very dominant tomato taste. The coconut, ginger, and lemongrass flavors were practically non-existent which is not usual for this dish. It almost tasted like Chicken Tortilla Soup which was odd. I just did not enjoy it. Besides that, the waiter was nice and the food was out promptly but I just was not impressed enough to make a trip back.

    I finally got to eat here after passing it so many times! I brought my sister on her birthday and we enjoyed the lunch specials! I ordered chicken pad Thai and she ordered the Pineapple fried rice...regular enough but super tasty! We also ordered Thai iced tea which was so good and caffeinated! I'm definitely going to come back to try more stuff. I just had to get my thai fix!

    food is consistently good here. highly suggest the drunken noodles and mango sticky rice. It's never too busy usually so service is fast.

    Box of rice Haven't…read morebeen here in almost 8 years. 1st experience was great, second was terrible so I didn't go back. My friend Aurora wanted to meet Donna early dinner and gossip session and she really liked this place. (We tried having a team lunch at the Rice Village location during the cold front last Oct but they had no heat so we opted for a warmer place but she grabbed a to go on the way home) Here we are for a late lunch 3:45 pm on a Friday. Parking was none had to drive around the block and saw some movement and bam, someone was leaving. We ordered at the bar, staff was super nice and opted to sit outside. Did not realize they deliver to the table. Order: Mongolian beef combo with fried rice and egg roll $14.99 The food comes in takeaway style containers. Win. Mongolian beef (2.5/5) - slightly over sauced for me; beef was pretty tender and there were carrots and edamame which is not the standard so maybe that's what makes it fusion? Fried rice (3/5) - standard style fried with small pieces of bean sprouts which I love so that was a nice surprise Egg roll (3/5) - I assume it was chicken because I didn't realize there was a choice) - it was crunchy and soft on the inside which I like, and pairs well with sriracha (did not eat till I got home) They seem to do a whole lot of take away. The staff were nice and hard working. I was excited when they first opened bc they had chow fun on the menu and being HK Cantonese, I love that dish but when I ordered it the 1st and 2nd time eight years ago instead of bean sprouts they had cabbage and that alters rhe flavor tremendously. I see why it's popular among the people but just don't think it is for my taste.

We were seated…read morepromptly and when my friends got here, we ordered right away because we were so hungry and did not want to wait any longer. It felt like only 5 minutes later, they started bringing out a few of our dishes and then another 5 minutes later, all 8 of our dishes were out. We were making jokes that they took our telepathically on the way to the restaurant. When they brought the food out, we all said "wow!" In unison because of how fast they were. Food was on point. Noodles were super saucy. My favorite was the sweet and sour fried fish. Fish was super crispy and I didn't expect the fish to be so huge. We definitely ordered with our stomachs that night. Walnut shrimp is always good and they had a side of walnuts with it. Tons of veggies with the mongolian beef and chicken. Everything was delicious and portions were huge. I can't find anything to complain about.

    It's been years since I've gotten food from Tiger Noodle House (dined in & to-go)…read more Service was good & food was prepped quick for takeout order. I used to love their dry fried Szechuan spicy sliced fish, but it doesn't hit the same anymore. Tasted dry and fish pieces were smaller than I remembered. Dry fried green beans w/ minced pork were good. Read decent reviews about the homemade tofu, however it was mid. Wished it was more savory. Should've ordered the mapo tofu instead. Not sure if i would come back to this place since there's other restaurants with better szechuan food.
