Came here for lunch and the food and service was great! Lunch sets come with a soup or salad which was nice. They had a wide range of dishes to choose from.

Tom kha soup large

We visited this nice neighborhood Thai place in Oak Hill on a quiet weekday evening. We ordered a panang curry with vegetables and a large bowl of tom kha soup with vegetables. The tom kha was great, it had a good tangy flavor and it carried the meal for me. The curry was a bit less of a hit from my perspective. I wished it was more creamy with more coconut milk; it was a tad thin. The seating was wooden benches which were not quite comfortable. The cushions which were a decent attempt at padding the benches kept sliding. Service was friendly but slow; we had to ask a couple of times to get warm water. Due to proximity we'll probably visit again.

FR3 Basil Fried Rice

Monday it was exceptionally cold in Austin. We are in town for a job & cold weather makes me want Thai food. We were greeted as we walked in which started us off on a good note. We ordered Hot Jasmine tea which was perfect. We ordered Crab Rangoon which I must say is the best I've had in forever. There was an ample size filling & the crusts was cooked perfectly. I usually don't like the dip because it's too sweet but this was very fresh & spicy ...Yummy! My husband had the Pad Kee Mao & really enjoyed it. I had Basil Fried Rice with chicken ( could have used a little more chicken) it was good too. The plates had a nice visual presentation as well. All in all a good experience & we will be back.

Food was 10/10! Would definitely come back. Tried the yellow curry and pad kee mao and they both had so much flavor. Prices are affordable too. Service was good and we would definitely come back.

Pad thai

We picked up takeout from here the other day (easy process) because we were hoping to find good Thai food near our house. While i still think we have some searching to do, Thai Taste offers a decent alternative. The pad thai was a bit too dry for my taste, and the pineapple fried rice didn't have the punch of flavor I'm used to. However, again, not a ton of options for Thai food in this part of town, so still a solid choice!

I was very tempted to gatekeep this place but I just can't. My family loves pad Thai and shrimp spring rolls and have tried several places around town. This is my first time here and I just kind of stumbled upon it after getting my haircut next door, but I'm so glad I did! It's so good! The Pad Thai is kind of sweet but so good. I get mine without egg, bean sprouts, or green onions because I like it simple. I immediately texted my sisters to tell them we have to try this place! The restaurant is closing 10/10/22 for renovations for I think a month, but when they reopen, come! The soft spring rolls are good- the peanut sauce is hard to beat! The Thai tea is also very sweet because it has sweetened condensed milk, but still really good! I'll definitely be back.

Menu Item EN10. Pad Garpow Kai Dow

Hubby and I dined here last week for lunch and it was quite pleasant. The interior decor is simple and clean. We were quickly seated and served. Nice portion of food at a reasonable price. Hubby ordered the Tiger Cry (8oz steak) while I enjoyed the Pad Garpow Kai Dow (stir-fried grounded chicken). I asked our server to make my dish mild and it was very delicious. We do hope to visit soon - highly recommended!

Pad Thai with Chicken

Where to begin? Having moved from north to south Austin a couple of years ago I was bummed thinking that I was leaving all the good Asian food Austin had to offer. Fortunately, I was wrong. Thai Taste is a hidden gem of southwest Austin and offers a wide variety of traditional and fusion Thai food. I love their pad thai and shrimp spring rolls. They're a must have every time I visit. Over time, I've tried other dishes and these do not disappoint. Instead, Thai Taste surprises me every time. The service and staff are great too whether you are dining or grabbing take out. The restaurant has a calm and quiet ambiance and fortunately draws a good crowd daily (from what I've seen), which is a testament to how good their food is. I recommend you check them out!

Ordered off Uber eats, they waited 20 minutes then canceled my order. I'm starving, so disrespectful to treat customers this way.

Ok. Too busy talking and didn't get pictures but trust me the food is good. We were a party of 12…read moreand they were able to accommodate us. We ordered the cheese roll, pork bely, khon wings, brussel sprouts, fried tofu, pad see ew, Massaman curry, roti, pandang beef, moo ping, tum tad, crab fried rice, pineapple fried rice and all of it was amazing. Found this place as it was a recommendation from someone who was in the Thai restaurant business and came highly recommended. I am definitely going back but would love it if the owners would consider opening a place in the Lakeway area.

I ordered over the phone, which was an easy and quick process. They said it would be ready in 20…read moremin and it was. The restaurant itself has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a bar. It seems like a nice place to have a meal. As for the food, we ordered: Pad thai with chicken, mild spice - unfortunately this was a bit dry for me, though the taste was good. Pad see ew with chicken - I liked their version and would probably get it again. Pad woon sen with pork - typically my favorite noodle dish and I think they did a good job. Garden roll - good but not as packed as others I've had, and at a higher price point. Pineapple fried rice with pork - I liked this but was a bit on the oily side. Tom kha soup - I thought this was very good and had a decent amount of chicken and mushrooms Overall I liked everything but some items I felt I had better versions of elsewhere. It's also on the pricier side. Still, if in central Austin I think it's a solid choice for Thai food.

Loved the food truck so really wanted to check out the Brick and Mortar! Came on a Sunday to try…read moreout some delicious thai food with my thai food bestie! Ambience: Dark and moody with plenty of seating and a partial viewing of the kitchen. Service: the waitress was super prompt and also gave a lot of explanation about items on the menu in case we weren't familiar with the dish. Food: The food is probably some of the best thai food in Austin. We ordered the papaya salad which came out more in like a "thin flat noodle fashion" than what we are normally used to, it's not super spicy like most thai restuarants like to serve it but still has some robust flavors and some spice it also comes with cracklings which are super crunchy. The chinese broccolli is always a favorite of mine for the texture and the Pork Ribs dish was super creamy with a hint of spice that left you craving more. The menu is so large that we will definetly be back, i'd recommend going close to open as it's not as crowded!

My friend and I decided to check this place out since we've heard many good things about Kiin Di…read moreeven from days it was a food truck. We got the: * Roti Dip * Soft shell crab in curry * Papaya salad I loved the roti, it was crispy and the curry was flavorful, a bit salty but they paired well. The biggest miss for me was the soft shell crab in curry, the plate came out room temp which was a bit disappointing since curry is best served warm/hot. The batter on the crab was super thick it felt like we were just eating deep fried crab that got soggy quickly as it's served in the curry. The curry had some separation almost as if the coconut milk in it had been reheated or curdled during the cooking process. I'm not an expert chef but I've worked with coconut milk enough to notice these things. The papaya salad was decent, I loved the tangy and fresh flavors (we opted for 3 spice but definitely could've amped it up). I prefer my papaya salad with more "funk" but understand that's a different style. I am sad I had to give this place only 3 stars because my expectations were high considering this is their brick & mortar. I will have to give it a try again and taste other dishes. Overall the service was friendly, got sat immediately and didn't have to wait too long for the food to come out. More parking in the back of the restaurant, be weary of the signs from other businesses.
