    The food was delicious and portions were excellent! Love a good restaurant where you don't leave hungry! The interiors are cute and the service is excellent! A gem in the middle of no where in the outskirts of phoenix! If you're in the area make sure to try them out. Want to try their khao soi next! Love the cute robot servers!

    Drunken noodles with chicken
    Bindu A.

    Great food! Our first time in Phoenix and we lucked out choosing this restaurant right out of airport. The portion sizes are generous. We ordered drunken noodles with chicken, pineapple fried rice, salt and pepper wings and a lunch special of yellow curry with tofu Everything tasted good

    Kao Soi with chicken
    Julie K.

    Why am I just finding this place?? We had pad see eew and kao soi chicken. First of all the portions are huge and haven't compromised on taste. The staff is prompt, friendly and patient. The place is nicely decorated and clean. The orange chicken was insanely huge . The guy next to us ordered it and barely ate it. He didn't pack the leftover but said it was delicious? Hmm okay. I'm definitely coming back to try other items.

    Drunken noodles..mangled..not hot as I ordered...

    First time here. Clean and spacious. A few of the booths have seen better years as visual wear shows on the seating area. Service is quick and friendly. Menu has it all with nice pictures. I had the drunken noodles. If Monday has a different Chef compared to other days based on other pictures in reviews, today's Chef butchered the fresh wide noodles used in this dish. Also a bit oily than it should be also had to many green bell peppers. For a dish ordered with a protein it was more of a vegetable dish. Flavor wise it was good. Heat came out less hot than what I ordered. I will be back and try a few other items on a different day and see if there is a difference between the prep and final dish. Worth checking out...

    Fried Calamari
    Trinity W.

    FOOD WAS AMAZING and perfect amount to share family size with some friends or family. The drinks were also delicious like the thai milk tea. Definitely recommend this place. Service was great, loved our server! There's a bunch of booths to sit comfortably as well.

    Kao Soi
    Jen T.

    Wow!! I'm so glad I stopped by, this place is incredible of Thai food. I ordered pad see ew, the Kao soi and a Thai milk tea. Everything was 10/10! Authentic with large servings. Service was top notch. Bathrooms were clean. Parking was a little tight but we still found a spot. Will definitely come back.

    The food here was super delicious. All of our dishes were cooked well and tasted exactly as you'd hope from good Thai cuisine. It can get pretty busy at any time of the evening so be prepared for a wait and for them to take some time to check back around with you. However, the tom yum wings were a pleasant surprise. I'd recommend trying those out if you're a fan of tom yum. The fried tofu was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We really enjoyed the crab fried rice. It had a good amount of crab mixed in and didn't feel skimpy at all. The tom kha soup was flavorful, filling and would recommend going back for. If you're looking for a good eggplant dish, definitely try theirs. We finished with dessert and tried their sticky rice with coconut ice cream. If you love sticky rice, please make room for this. It's a great spot to come hang out at and eat great food.

    We were in Phoenix on a business trip and went to another Thai restaurant, but without a reservation the wait was one hour and 20 minutes so we decided to try this restaurant. I'm so glad we did! The food was AMAZING. The menu was extensive. The food was fresh and the portions were large. We had plenty of leftovers. The restaurant had a steady stream of customers it was nicely decorated. The waitress was very friendly and funny. Once the food was ready, the server walks alongside a robot with a happy cat face that is carrying all the dishes and the server will take the dishes and put it on your table. I got the Kao Soi special (mild) and it was tasty. Lots of chicken, lots of flavor. Would go back if I ever visit Phoenix again.

    Pangang curry with chicken
    Tiffany B.

    I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Service is always great and the robot kitty expediter makes my son's day. Portions are huge and food is always amazing. Noodle dishes here are my fave.

    Emma N.

    This Thai food was exactly what I needed after a long week at work. I've had this place on my list for a while now and I'm happy I finally tried it out! I Placed an order for pickup through door dash and it was ready within 20-30 minutes. Smaller parking lot, but some street parking could be available if needed. The dining room seemed nice, I would definitely dine in next time. My food was still hot when I got home. I'd heard the portions here were large and I definitely agree. I don't think I managed to get through half of the container. I'd ordered the pad Thai and it was sooo good Highly recommend!

    Top: Thai Fried Rice; bottom: Drunken Noodle with fried tofu
    Jorey C.

    I love a good Thai restaurant, and this one delivered well! I got the drunken noodles, scale 1 spicy, with fried tofu and made gluten free. Ugh it was so good and I had enough leftovers for another entire meal. It came out steaming hot and was packed with so much flavor. A win!! My boyfriend got the Thai fried rice and thought it needed some sauce - it cost $3 extra for sauce so we skipped it. This was also his first time having Thai food, so I bet it was still tasty (it wasn't gluten free, otherwise I would've had some). Good service! They cleaned a booth off for us, it was very nice. Would come back!

    Pad Thai
    Thomas T.

    Although the restaurant was packed for dinner, the wait wasn't too long. If there was a hostess, it would help the wait staff work on cleaning tables and taking orders.The wait to get service took a while but once you order the food comes out relatively quick. The Pad Thai is a generous portion and is very flavorful and is one of the top ones I've had. You are able to choose a spice level and Thai hot was too spicy for me. The quality of the food makes up for the slow service and I look forward to coming back.

    Crab Fried Rice, Spicy Tom Yum Edamame, Curry Noodles
    Jaqueline E.

    Can't stop thinking about the curry noodles! The portions are large so definitely great for sharing! They have a large dining space which makes the ambience great for large parties or a solo meal. The staff were attentive and ensured we received everything we needed.

The staff here are so kind it really made the experience of having to wait a bit so much better! The gentleman at the front door recommended a wine bar around the corner to wait at after we got on the list, which was a cute divey spot. The food was delicious, we loved the papaya salad so much, there were so many flavors of spicy and tangy, and the papaya itself was very refreshing. We had the Pad kee mao and Panang curry which were also delicious. For the chicken pad kee mao we requested it to be gluten free and they gave us the same rice noodles as the Pad Thai and a slightly different sauce which was so darn good! The chicken was very tender. When the Panang curry said it came with beef, I didn't know what to think but after a single bite I was a huge fan! So many flavors hit you at once and the beef was so incredible, it was falling part. I also ordered the savory cocktail option (I can't remember the name) which had cucumber vodka, fish sauce, mint, onion, and some other goodies, and wow! It changed my life. Highly highly recommend. Overall would definitely come back here, we were a walk in on a Saturday night and had an hour and a half wait to get in.

We started with the creamy, coconut-infused Yam Mamuang Boran (green mango salad), and food came FAST from there. Some standouts for me included: - Ba Mee Moo Dang (BBQ pork egg noodles) - Pla Rad Prik Sam Rot (fried branzino) - Tom Kha Gai (coconut chicken soup) - Tom Yum Haeng Sen Yai (wide rice noodles) All of these had a beautiful balance of acidity, savoriness, spice, and herbs in one dish with tender meat. But everything together really hit well. For example, the bok choy was a light break between super savory curries and fried wings (HUGE fan of the marinade on these). I also enjoyed getting to share dishes I wouldn't normally order a la carte, like the Naw Tawt (fried bamboo). The staff members made sure to ask about allergies and spice tolerances and thoroughly explained each dish as it was served. We actually ended up paying slightly less than the estimated $55/person for 12 dishes (before drinks) -- and we realized we got an extra serving of the chicken wings at no charge. Arai Kodai is truly a phenomenal way to experience more of the best dishes on the menu! We were stuffed, and I would gladly return.

Some other Thai places I've tried, the mango is usually a bit sour because they're still raw. 3) NAEM KHAO TAWT : crispy rice with cured sausage : my favorite dish! Love the savory seasoning of the crispy rice and the raw sausage 4) TOM KHA GAI: chicken soup. Great taste! Love the broth. 5) BAMEE MU DANG: egg noodles with char siu, great dish for what it is but I wouldn't go out of my way for this dish. 6) BA BUEY KHLAK TI: crispy pork belly with curry. Love the pork belly and with crispy skin! Love the curry too but it was a little too salty, you have to eat this with rice. 7) TOM YUM HAENG SEN YAI: stir fry noodle: love the tom yum flavor, my favorite dish as well! 8) HOI SHAE NAM PLA: scallop, love this dish! Refreshing, great seasoning combo, scallop was fresh and soft

As a proud Yelp Elite, I decided to give this place a chance because the reviews were the best I saw in the city! The place was busy on a Sunday night and it is small but I never say customers waiting too long. There were two larger parties seated so the food took some time but nothing outrageous. We started with the calamari, spring rolls, and crab wontons. The calamari were the biggest I've ever seen and very delicious! Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the spring rolls or crab wontons. I feel like those are hard to get wrong but I was not a fan of the cream cheese that was used and it was a lot of it, barely any imitation crab. For entrees, I had the spicy basil and substituted ground chicken for chicken breast, my personal preference. I ordered level 2 spice but it was still a bit spicy for me. Trying a new Thai place is always hit or miss with spice levels so I actually thought I was being safe with 2. Additionally, the chicken was so bland. Some Thai places season their chicken, some do not and unfortunately Pad Thai Cafe missed that mark. My partner ordered the short rib curry dish and my goodness, it smelled like heaven and tasted just as good. I don't eat beef but had to taste it and it was divine! He also ordered spice level 2 and his dish was not as spicy as mine. Overall, the rest of the party enjoyed their food and there were good flavors there so I'd definitely recommend the entrees, not so much the starters.
