I have been to every Thai restaurant in town and this by far the best. I wish they were open on weekends but no other thai restaurant holds a candle to Pan's food, plus she is a genuine person. Five stars read more

This restaurant was one of the worst places Ive been to while visiting Prescott. The owner of the restaurant was rude to my kids and the orders took forever. It was overpriced and undercooked. I spent $20 on one order alone but she didnt give a reciept for the order so I couldnt tell you the overall total spent other than it was overpriced. The lady was shooing my kids out saying there wasnt enough room for everyone. How rude. Never coming here again. Save your money and go someplace else! read more

Food is SO GOOD! Vegan and spicy! The owner is so sweet too. Definitely will be back. read more

Thaifoon - Vegan spicy basil noodle. MAGIC!!!!! - Thai Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

If you want to find the places to eat you have to ask around. I seem to relearn this rule ever so often, and this time following it scored us a big win. (Thanks to CJ's for the referral and a great haircut!) It is a little plaza with a few other gems. (See Nick's Feed your Face for a great sub!) It doesn't look like much from the outside. Think hole-in-the-wall. First off, it's tiny. Really, really, tiny. No indoor seating. There is a small area to read the menu, order and wait. You will not be bored waiting as the ladies who run it cook your food right in front of you and chatter the whole time. I can order food, beer and find a bathroom in Thai, so I can't follow half of what they say, but there are genuinely friendly and enjoy their work. And, boy, can they cook. It is fresh. Nothing, except the rice, is precooked. They always encourage me to get it spicy and they find it amusing a big 'ol bear like me prefers it medium hot. There is a great variety in the menu and I make a point to mix my favorites up with new things. I haven't tried anything there I didn't like. There seem to be wide regional differences in Thai food, for instance their Pad Thai is different that any other I have had, but I also have never had any two Pad Thai's (anywhere) that were the same! I really think there is a little Loatian influence in the menu but it all tastes great. My favorites are the Tom Ka soup, Pad Woon-sen and Thai Kao Pad. It is, hands down, my favorite takeout food in Prescott. read more

MUCH less impressed second time around. Pad woon sen flavorless and spiceless and the tofu was not fresh at all. Mostly sliced up cabbage. Thai chef lady number one said, don't watch Thai chef lady #2 cooking - she doesn't know how to cook. I thought she was kidding... And my stomach didn't feel good afterwards. Maybe it was a coincidence and maybe it was the aged tofu. She did suggest *chicken*, so if you do go here get the chicken, and I think maybe if number one chef does the cooking, but I think I won't bother to find out. read more

I have been going here for years and the food never disappoints! The owner is also extremely friendly and always remembers my order! The Thaifoon Pad Thai has an amazing, creamy peanut sauce, and the curries are awesome as well. Hands down, the best Thai food in northern Arizona. read more

I have lived in prescott for 3 years and have been a repeat customer at thaifoon, pan and pon know me by name. I have made sure to remember their birthdays every year because i do consider them friends, they make sure to remember what is going on with their customers and are truely concerned when something has gone wrong. Their food is DELICIOUS. I walk in, tell them how i feel, then ask what i want to eat. I tell them whether i want soup, noodles, curry, or rice and they always have the BEST suggestions. You can watch your food cooked right in front of you as they talk and laugh with you. They like to teach their customers interesting sayings in Thai and on request they will show you how to write your name in Thai. All of their food is amazing, I have never eaten a single thing that i haven't liked. If you like thai food you can't go wrong with thaifoon. Pan and Pon are amazing women who put so much love into ever dish they cook. They are happy to make recomendations or have you order what you want, they are wonderful women, and this is an AMAZING take out restaurant. read more

Seriously reviewers?! This is the worst Thai food I've ever had. The fresh rolls were falling apart, were the diameter of a subway sandwich (way to big), and full of nothing but vermicelli noodles. After one bite of the "pad thai", which was more like rice noodles swimming in a sugary brown gravy with not much else, my blood-sugar skyrocketed so high I think I went into a coma. The curry was bland and bared almost no resemblance to any Panang curry I've ever had before. The woman making the food was quite a riot, however, her character, no matter how charming, will not factor into my firm one-start review. read more

Great take-out only Thai food!! Unique and very fresh ingredients she does a remarkable job spring rolls and pho!! Love that it's made to order on spot!! Wonderful little Hidden Gem in Park Plaza, great job!! Note: closes the month of July read more

My boyfriend and I are moving to Prescott from L.A. and we both love Thai food. We walked into Thaifoon and the owner/chef walked over to us and handed us two spoon her peanut sauce, which is to die for yummy. We both felt like we were in "grandma's kitchen". As far as the food, it is just as good as the experience! I know she uses more veggies in her dishes compared to the "typical" Thai food places I've been too!!! This is now one of our favorite places to eat in Prescott! read more

I can't say enough good things about this take-out and cash-only small and very casual restaurant. The food is freshly prepared for each order with quality ingredients. The spices are perfect. The owner chef is an amazing and energetic woman. She cares about her food and customers. The menu offerings are extensive and delicious. For anyone that needs to eat Gluten Free - almost everything on the menu is gluten free - the owner chef is gluten free herself. I am super gluten sensitive and I have never been ill from eating at Thaifoon. You don't have to worry about cross contamination as everything that goes into the pans and woks are gluten free. Would give more than five stars if I could. read more

I would consider myself a spicy food aficionado of some sort. I absolutely love GOOD spicy food, especially Thai food. With that's said, GO TRY THAIFOON! If you like spicy, get it spicy... if you are psycho like me, tell Pan you want it Thai Spicy and she will turn your world upside down! Hands-down the best Thai food in Prescott or probably in most places. Cash only. Carry-out only. Worth the wait if there is one. read more

The Thaifoon is a fantastic place to get takeout food and enjoy doing it! The women who run it are always joking around and will even teach you a thing or two in the Thai language. You'll have to remember to bring cash, the small place doesn't have credit card support or an ATM. All of the food comes in LARGE portions and has the option of degree of spice, mild medium hot or Thai hot. I recommend mild, even for those who think they can take spice, medium spice starts to destroy their mouths. Over all a great place for 10 min takeout! read more

So this isn't a place to sit down, but grab and go. It's a one-man-shop, so call ahead. The Pho wasn't what I expected but really good. She asked if I wanted it spicy and it really was! So use cation if you aren't good with hot! read more

See all

Wow!!!! The food is delicious and the owner is so incredibly nice! The drunken noodles are amazing and the pad thai is full of flavor!! Only downside is that there's really no place to sit... But I would highly recommend it! read more

I'm sorry to say I can't judge the food: I never got to try it. So the place is indeed a little hole in the wall, it clearly says "TAKE OUT" so to those who complain about the lack of seating arrangement, duh: this is a take out joint, for Pete's sake. The thing is, there was only one person working there tonight, she didn't have spring rolls, she was out of brown rice, only had a tiny bit of jasmine rice left, told us to wait 20 minutes because she had to cook for the previous couple and told them their meal would take 20 minutes so my man and I recognize a clusterfuck in process when we see one, excused ourselves and went somewhere else. Pity. read more

Amazing food and Pan is just the most darling lady ever. She is very personable and will take great care of you.

By far best Thai food and Thai food maker I have ever come across!! 10/10 beats any other place! Not to mention the amazing owner, rlly makes it worth while:) read more

Best Thai food in Prescott without a doubt. Clean, fresh and very tasty. Love it so much ! Yum try it you won't be sorry!

Take out only. Friendly funny owner. Some reviewers said owner was rude but I didn't feel it. I think maybe language barrier played a part. l ordered drunken noodles with chicken. Not much substances, vegs were mostly cabbages with some green bell peppers. Flavors were lacking. My husband ordered Pad Thai with pork & was also disappointed. Very soupy and sweet. I really wanted to love the food but couldn't. We've had much better Thai elsewhere. read more

Hard to give a hole in the wall ***** but if you've had authentic or not this place is wonderfull. I recommend you ask them to spice it up an have them make it like they do for themselves! Take out only. read more

Fantastic, unique, tasty dishes! I recommend the Thaifoon fried rice - I never knew fried rice could be worth being excited about. She has creative, unique homemade sauces that give the dishes a lot of life. Allergy and vegan friendly. The restaurant is almost entirely gluten free. Takeout only, weekdays only, cash only. The menu, phone number to order ahead, and any notes about closures (like for holidays) are all on the website. read more

Best Thai food around and the owner is the most awesome little Thai woman ever everything on the menu is great and if you want something that's not on the menu she tell her what your craving and she whips it up in no time at all read more

AMAZING! Love the lady who owns it. The peanut sauce of Thai is to die for. Will always come back.

First off, this is the smallest hole in the wall restaurant I have ever seen. It is basically a walk in with a small counter and a small stove... Really small stove... Think your kitchen size. In there, you will find a sweet Thai lady who will prepare the food right in front of you. Nothing is prepared before hand... She slices the vegetables when you order the food. Because of this, the food is amazing authentic. I realize this is not for everyone. But if taste is your most important objective, you will not be disappointed. Note: pay special attention to their hours. She does not work all the time and therefore has limited availability. read more

Appalling customer service! The woman who runs the restaurant was rude and insulting for reasons I didn't understand. I showed up too early, apparently, and I didn't realize the pricing was higher than advertised. I left and came back with the appropriate amount of cash, only to be yelled at some more. (??) A young lady at the register didn't seem to know how to count change in a cash only restaurant. (???) At this point I have no idea what's going on and couldn't wait for the experience to be over. I found my dish to be quite bland and without spice. I wish I would have left without the food and without paying for the overpriced bland noodles and upsetting service. NEVER returning! read more

Another little gem in Prescott. When you drive up you are not going to think it looks like much. Tucked away in a small plaza with a few other restaurants, including Prescott's premier Sub Shop (Nick's), this is a very small, takeout only (OK they have a few outdoors tables) source of wonderful, fresh, made-right-in-front-of-you Thai Food. It is not fast food; but typically I only wait around fifteen minutes and it is worth every minute. Expect wonderful flavors, a very complete and diverse menu, and some of the sweetest ladies running the place and cooking for you that you are ever likely to meet. If you like Asian food, like it made-to-order, like to see your food made by skilled hands with fresh ingredients, you have to check out ThaiFoon. The food can be a little spiciest to the Unacclimated, but you can order the intensity and the flavors still come through, even with "Thai Hot." read more

I've been going here for years. My son introduced it to me. I've lived in Thailand over five years so I do appreciate authentic thai food. This is it!! Seems privy but portions always give me two meals. read more

This hole-in-the-wall restaurant (for take-out food, although I ate at one of its two small outdoor tables) is a revelation and a miracle. From Palm Springs, I regularly visit my relatives in Prescott. With each visit I search the town in vain for a worthwhile restaurant. However, in early January 2012, eating (in desperation) at the Prescott Denny's, I asked my waiter if he knew of any good local Asian restaurants. His face lit up and he said: you must eat at Thaifoon. When a waiter recommends a competing restaurant, I am all ears. Thaifoon is open weekdays only, and only from 11 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (The days and hours were selected by the owners to make the take-out restaurant convenient for city employees and college students.) The two personable owners, Pan and Pon, recommended a vegetarian choice: tofu and vegetables in yellow curry sauce, with a side of brown rice. OMG! (Let me say it again: OMG!): First, the brown rice was unlike any I had eaten before. Each grain was plump, rich with flavor, and the perfect complement to the yellow curry liquid. The spices in the yellow curry produced the desired warmth on the palate, without overwhelming the taste buds. Beneath that warm, a creaminess - could it have been rich coconut milk? I had a diet soda which was sold at a ridiculously low price (I think it was seventy cents). And, as an appetizer, I ordered the fried vegetarian spring rolls (two) which were absolutely heavenly. The wraps for the rolls were flaky and tender, like the lightest filo dough imaginable. And inside the rolls were julienne vegetables - I recall carrot and zucchini - light and airy and crunchy. A sweet vinegary sauce was supplied for dipping. The entire meal was out of this world. And because I was there during the mid-afternoon lull in their business, owners Pan and Pon spoke with me at length about their lives, their families, their partnership, their restaurant, and their mission, their passion, to express love through authentic Thai food. These two indomitable spirits formed their partnership around two years ago. (The restaurant existed previously under different ownership.) Their days start at 8 a.m. to prep for the lunch orders. They keep their business small and simple (no checks or credit cards accepted), and they have absolutely no desire to franchise or to open multiple locations. Benjamin Franklin, emerging from the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, was asked what kind of government had been created. His reply: A democracy - if you can keep it. Well, Prescott, Pan and Pon have created a Thai food love fest; and now it's up to you, Prescott, to keep it going. read more

Hole in the wall place in the middle of a strip mall. Great food and good prices make this a great place to stop when you have a craving for good thai food. The staff can be hard to understand often, and they will probably try to get you to get your food on the spicy side. They give those with gringo tastebuds (like me) a hard time, but it is all in fun. Outdoor seeting only. Inside there is just enough room to stand in front of the register and read the menu. read more

A hole-in-the-wall, the way Thai food should be. I am a bit of a Thai food snob having lived in Thailand for a year and prefer Thaifoon over other Thai restaurants in town. The owners are 2 friendly Thai ladies who have a great time in the kitchen and chatting with customers. They actually do Thai spice right--the medium spice made me sweat! It is a great place for quick take-out and you can watch them cook your food in the tiny kitchen. Cash only. Outdoor seating when weather permits. read more

I really like this place. The two ladies that run it are so sweet and funny! My husband and I have had no issues with the food whatsoever. I kinda like how it's a hole in the wall, literally lol. It makes me feel like I'm in Asia, takes me to a whole new world! read more

Finally found a Thai place worth returning to. Good food in this town is hard to come by. I ordered my thaiphoon fried rice in the hottest heat level and it was actually hot! The owner said that most "white boy" can't handle it, but I actually added just a little bit of the extra spice they generously offered. The ladies inside were very friendly and gave me a tray to hold our food in on the drive back. My wife got the drunken noodle and it was amazing. We will be back! read more

I absolutely love this place. I eat here regularly and whenever I'm sick the ladies in there go out of their way to make my soups with all the extra good stuff--not to mention extra kindness! I have been to Thailand many times and this is the only Thai place I will eat at in town since it is the only place that does not taste like used cooking oil. Their food is so fresh and so delicious! I highly recommend everything on the menu. read more

I had heard great things. We were disappointed but then we ordered vegetarian options and maybe carnivore is better. Certainly not horrible, but I wouldn't go back. And their hours are really weird. I think they close at 7 and not open Saturday or Sunday? And they only take cash so we had to run around and find an ATM. read more

Only take cash, which is a bummer. When you ask for Tai hot, you better believe it's going to burn going in and out. No seating, except for the tiny patio table and few chairs. Not sure about the cleanliness of the place, frankly I don't care. read more

The most fun and delicious Thai place ever. It's only takeout, but I recommend going and spending at least a few minutes in the room. The talent preparing the food, Pan Pan, is a firecracker! It was a blast talking to her and watching her deftly prepare my curry. read more

Tight squeeze to get into the front door, don't let the screen door hit you in the *ss. Excellent Thai food, plus the lady with the "doo-rag" will crack you up. She's a sweetheart, and willing to make your meal the best. You will not be disappointed. read more

This place was soooo good! Glad we finally found a place we can go to whenever we have a Thai food craving! I decided to try the drunken noodle for the first time and got it at a 3 out of 4 in the heat scale and holy crap it was hot! It was so delicious though. The heat and the flavor of everything is amazing. If you haven't tried it yet, definitely check this place out read more

If you know what real Thai food is they this is the place for you. These two cook from the heart and it shows. There are other Thai restaurants in town that cant even come close to the quality of spices and fresh ingredients that they have on hand. My absolute favorite is the Thaifoon Pad Thai. Keep them going they really the best around. read more
