Loved the Drunken Noodles (Pad Kee Mow) I (thought I) have a high spice tolerance and asked for level 5 (comes in levels 4 and 5) and boy was it spicy! The flavors really came through though, despite the spice. Will definitely be coming back for the curries and the Pad Thai. Quick and friendly service. Nice ambience. Was busy on a Friday evening. It is located in a plaza so finding parking should not be a problem. read more

Titaya's Thai Cuisine - N5 Pad Kee Mao (Tofu) - Thai Near Me - Austin, Texas

Titaya's Thai Cuisine we got from off of a list of recommended restaurants at the hotel we were staying at that was nearby during our trip to Austin. We came early, just before they opened and there was several customers waiting also which can kind of give the hint that you're at a good place. And indeed it was. I got their Pad Thai, a dish I don't often get as I often got the route of Drunken Noodles but I wanted to revisit Pad Thai so that was the direction I took foe this meal. It was very, very good ! The ingredients were fresh, the sauce and noodles were great! It was a decent sized meal which I appreciated as we had a very busy day ahead of us with shopping and being tourists and this meal was one of virtually all of the meals in Austin to be great to outstanding! read more

Busy. Ehh flavor is ok. Very spicy wasnt too bad, i need the last level. Interior is ok. Would i go back, ehh. Service is ok. Food quality was ok. Price ehh ok. Portions ok. Worth a try? Sure i guess. Its missing authenticity. Thai spark. Love. read more

I've only ever done Togo food here, so I can't speak to the atmosphere of the restaurant. The food does keep me coming back, especially as my go-to to-go Thai place. I've never had an order packaged incorrectly, and they are particular on the pick up process to ensure you get the correct order (greatly appreciated). Portion sizes are standard, and the prices are good. read more

Absolutely impressed with this place. Everything we ordered was really good, and it's the kind of spot where every dish at the table hits. The Thai tea was a standout--sweet, creamy, and the perfect pairing with the meal. The curries were rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The khao soi was especially delicious with bold, comforting flavors and a depth that kept me going back for more. The drunken noodles were also very tasty--great texture, well-seasoned, and satisfying without being overly heavy. Service was great, food came out fresh, and the overall experience made this an easy recommendation. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving flavorful Thai food. read more

We've been to Titaya's many times and have always been very happy with the food, but tonight was the first time we walked away disappointed. The price was good for a full birthday celebration dinner for only $112 including tip for two appetizers, two main courses, two desserts, and Thai teas, but unfortunately, the the entrees really missed the mark. We usually drive out of our way to come here, so I am really hoping tonight was just a one-off experience. Here is how our dishes turned out: * Pla Sum Rod (Basa Fish Special): The dish was completely overdone with tamarind flavor. The heavy-handed tamarind made the sauce moderately sweet and single-note, drowning out a vibrant three-flavor profile it's supposed to have. On top of that, the Basa fillet itself had a distinctly fishy taste suggesting the kitchen rushed the prep or used a lower-grade cut where the mud vein wasn't properly trimmed. * Basil Talay (Seafood Basil): My brother ordered this, and every element of the seafood was overcooked. The mussels were extremely tough, the shrimp were overdone, and the squid came in strips that were incredibly chewy and tasted fishy. Moving forward, I think I will stick to the classic staples such as the stir-fry dishes, noodles, and curries. Two of our favorites are the Pad Kra Prao (from the stir-fry section) and the Pad Kee Mao (from the noodle section). On the plus side, the black rice pudding was delicious as always! read more

I like this place as it's one of the most authentic Thai restaurants in the area. I had the basil fried rice which was very delicious. Here's my only complaint they were going to charge my friend extra money for asking for a slice of lime. Very strange. I've been to a lot of Thai restaurants and limes are usually complementary. Great food though. Maybe BYOL (Bring Your Own Lime) 7/10 Lime Slices ‍ read more

Titaya's Thai Cuisine - Thai Iced Tea - Thai Near Me - Austin, Texas

Wow wow WOW. Please just go to Titaya's for your Thai food cravings. We didn't have a reservation on a Friday and we were able to be seated right away. As a restaurant, they actually move so fast even though they always seem busy. Our server came to us immediately and got our drinks and order ready. When it comes to Thai food I don't even need to look on the menu lol Their Tom yum soup is amazing, perfectly hot and sour, and the beef pad see ew was flavorful with lots of tender meat and veggies. If it wasn't a little out of the way for me I would be there every weekend! read more

Titaya's Thai Cuisine - Beef pad see Eiw - Thai Near Me - Austin, Texas

As one of the most established Thai establishments in Austin, Titaya's has been serving the community for close to 2 decades. They've won numerous awards from various publications as a local favorite and have been lauded for their take on traditional and fusion Thai dishes. My expectations for anything Asian in Austin have always been a notch lower than most cities, but Titaya's surprised my group of dining companions and I in the best way. The atmosphere is a not exactly conducive to large groups, but given the darkly lit, intimate ambiance, I would give the nod to date and small groups. Parking isn't an issue but the weekend wait times are real. There is an upscale feel, but a casual vibe at the same time. Food wise, everything I managed to sample was on point. From standard dishes like pad kee mao, pad thai, and pad see yu to things like kau soi 360. or their fried polenta crab cakes. I thoroughly enjoyed the crispy chili wings as well as their flavorful massaman curry. The only thing that was off was the service. My group and I waited to be seated for close to an hour, only to wait a bit more to be served. I realize that it was a busy night but water refills were slow and even getting the bill was a bit of a chore. We had to flag down our server for all sorts of things, but having to do that meant it wasn't the most ideal of experiences. I still enjoyed myself and will find a reason to come back more often in the future. Titaya most certainly has found.a new fan in me. read more

The best local Thai spot! Love coming here - dining in is always a cozy and relaxing experience and the takeout is fast and convenient too! For dining in, the service is always nice and there's never too long of a wait. I love the decor and it's the perfect casual date spot. Takeout can be easily ordered online and you can go straight to the back for pickup. The food here is sooooo good! Everything is flavorful: - the tom yum soup has a great balance of acidity and spicy -the curries have a nice spice level and goes so well with rice -the pad see ew is probably the best I've had with such a good umami flavor and tons of protein and perfectly chewy noodles Portion sizes are great for the price, and we always leave here full and happy! read more

This is my third time coming here, and it's always a good sign when it is consistently busy! Sometimes there can be a short wait but it's never longer than 10 mins. You might have to watch closely how they seat folks - sometimes they seat people before you despite having the same party size; can be pretty chaos when it's busy. Food is quick and yummy! The pad thai and pineapple fried rice are both good. I would skip on the signature chicken wings (nothing really spectacular about them, but happy they came out hot and crispy). We were in and out of here within an hour. read more

Last night's dinner? Baby... it showed up and showed out. I ordered the Gang Kiew Warn....green curry herb with bamboo strips, eggplant, fresh basil, zucchini, and serrano simmered in coconut milk -- and I added chicken and shrimp because we don't do halfway over here. If we're eating, we're eating. Let me tell you something. The balance? On point. Just enough coconut milk to make it silky without drowning the dish. Just enough serrano to whisper heat instead of scream at you. The zucchini, eggplant, and bamboo strips all held their own -- nothing mushy, nothing fighting for attention. Every bite felt intentional and served with white rice. It was pickup, but I stepped inside to grab my order, and that place was spotless. Clean like somebody's mama was doing inspections. And the staff? Friendly, efficient, no nonsense. This wasn't just dinner. It was a "why don't I order this more often?" kind of meal. Yes, I'll absolutely be back. And next time? I might dine in just to soak it up properly. read more

This is one of those places that is easy to miss but absolutely wonderful if you stop to eat here. We had a fantastic group lunch (9 people)! We shared satay gai, and then several dishes, like ta-lay dancing and pad kra prao. The service was great and everyone had a great meal. There is plenty of parking and a bus stop not too far away. I will definitely try to come back with friends and family. read more

Good Thai food, but when the place is packed, service can be super slow. I came on a Sunday evening around 7pm. We waited a bit for a table for 2, but not very long. There's a ton of parking all around and lots of seating inside. We ordered a green curry, Pad Ke Mao with chicken, and sticky mango rice. All of the dishes were pretty good! Not the best Thai, but incredible flavors all around. Also a good amount of spice. Service was slow, and you can tell everyone was running around. As the night got later, the restaurant was getting more and more packed. Overall, I think this is a great place for food, just expect a longer wait time. read more

Great Thai food, seems a little more authentic than some of the other places i've been to in Austin! Chicken pad thai: 5/5 good portion size, not too sweet Papaya salad: 4/5 Great flavor, a little skeptical because they didn't ask for spice level. However, the portion was tiny and cost $11?? Satay gai: 3/5 Just okay, you get 4 tiny sticks for $10. The peanut sauce on the side was most of the flavor Mango sticky rice: 5/5 The sticky rice was fresh and warm, and they used the soft mangos! Also did not skimp on the coconut milk read more

The food has always been great here! I love the service! The ambiance is very vibrant.

The restaurant itself is pretty spacious. The wait times are horrendous. We were told it would be a 20 minute wait but we ended waiting for almost an hour. Our table ordered Tom-Ka (chicken), Pad See Eiw (chicken), Pad Woon Sen (chicken), and Fried Tofu. All the main dishes were delicious, but the Fried Tofu left much to be desired. It had zero flavor. Even the sauce couldn't save it. One Pad See Eiw was supposed to have been mild and the other no spice and both turned out to be the same (no spice). The service was also just ok. They didn't check up on us for a while and also took a while to bring some items that were needed for our dinner. Please note that they don't split checks (they'll allow you to pay using multiple credit cards). They also don't take American Express. read more

Best Thai restaurant in town! I always order the pad see ew and tom kha gai, and they're consistently solid. The pad see ew and pad Thai are always flavored right. Not overly sweet, not too salty, just balanced and really satisfying. The noodles are never squishy, which I appreciate more than I should. Quality is always on point and consistent, which is why I keep coming back. Also, if you haven't tried their tom kha gai yet, you're missing out. The lemongrass coconut soup is so good and super comforting. This is one of those places where you know exactly what you're getting, and that's a good thing. And despite the environment being packed during busy hours, it always feels so welcoming. read more

Titaya's Thai Cuisine - N2 Pad See Eiw - Thai Near Me - Austin, Texas

Cute spot with a great selection. i tried the pad thai because that's usually a good baseline test at a new thai spot. imo, too sweet, too many peanuts, why cilantro? i understand there are different spice levels, mine 1 was sweet and bland. his 2 he said was ok but the heat overpowered the flavor. though our guests had a few of their curry's which i found very flavorful. service was sweet and prompt. just not for me, but might be for you!! especially if your in your curry bag read more

The dishes here are pretty solid and there are a good variety of choices on the menu. On Sundays they only open starting at noon, but it's very popular and parking can be difficult to find even though there's a shared lot. I got the Tom Yum rice which I liked. Portions for the dishes are a medium-ish size, not the largest portions I've seen at a Thai restaurant and the prices are on the higher side. read more

Classic Thai food with classic Thai flavor, and my partner, her cousin, and I really enjoyed the courteous service that our server offered us throughout our dining experience. I don't have a lot of comments about this one, so I will just leave what I can! We ordered quite a few first bites, and they were all pretty good. The wings had good marinated flavor from the lemongrass, garlic, and peppercorns. The taro fritter was like fries made with taro, and it was an interesting experience that I simply treated as eating fries eventually. The crab cakes were solid as well, as I could taste sweet corn and eggs in them, and the spicy mustard aioli on the side worked well. I ordered two bowls, one containing tom yum, and one containing tom kha. I enjoyed tom kha a lot and thought it was the perfect amount of coconut milk included, and the effects of galangal, lemongrass, lime, and chili were obvious. Tom yum was okay, as I thought there was a bit too much chili, but I understood that it was supposed to be that way and it was my spicy tolerance that posed an issue. They offered a lot of tofu which was great. I do have to point out that my partner's cousin ordered the tom yum fried rice but was served crab meat fried rice instead. We ended up just letting it slide, but would like to mention that it happened. The crab fried rice could use a bit more seasoning. The flavor wasn't quite there, unfortunately. One more thing that might help elevate the experience was coconut water, if we could have a real coconut instead of an existing carton. But this is just me proposing something that could be potentially unrealistic and it is only because I have seen other places do it. Regardless, overall solid experience and I would recommend this establishment to those in Austin looking for Thai food. read more

Located along North Lamar, Titaya's Thai Cuisine is a great spot for solid Thai food that's both delicious and affordable! This is my second time visiting. Came on a Saturday evening around 7 PM. We were seated almost immediately (party of 2), service was fast and our food came out quickly. Depending on where you're seated, the tables between parties might be placed a tad close but this is a really minor detail. Pad Kee Mao w/ Chicken ($13.50, 5/5) - Really tasty with onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, and Thai chili. Perfect amount of spice. - You can choose different meat/protein options, some for additional cost. Overall, would highly recommend Titaya's! Food has great flavor, price is affordable and there's plenty of parking so getting in and out is very simple. read more

I'm a regular here and usually enjoy this place, which is why this experience was so disappointing. I decided to try a new menu item, the Fisherman's Soup, and unfortunately it was one of the worst soups I've had. The server mentioned it was spicy, but said it wasn't that bad and that it was good. In reality, it was extremely spicy to the point where it was unpleasant, and it didn't seem to have much flavor besides the overwhelming spice. What made it worse was the portion and quality for the price. The soup about $20 and had barely any ingredients -- about 5 pieces of shrimp, 2 mussels, and 2 small pieces of fish that didn't taste very fresh. Rice is also extra. I was with a group of 8 people and everyone tried it out of curiosity, and we were all surprised by how intense and unbalanced the soup was. What also disappointed me was the service. When my friend politely mentioned that the soup was too spicy for me, the response from the server was simply "I said that." There was no effort to suggest a solution or help in any way. The attitude came across as dismissive, which made the situation worse. I've liked this restaurant in the past, so this was unfortunate. Just a heads up to others: if you're sensitive to spice, you may want to avoid the Fisherman's Soup. read more

The restaurant has some good menu options, but the service is very poor. The server spends most of her time in the kitchen, and we had to go to the front desk ourselves to place our food order.

Still one of the better sit down Thai restaurants in central austin with quite a good following. I have so many memories eating here and the food is still quite good. I'm also glad that they aren't totally focused on take out and delivery - although you can order food to go here and its really good. Get here when they open because they usually fill up really fast. I ordered the Yum Woo Sen which a room temperature version of Pad Woo Sen (glass noodles) so it is very refreshing for a very warm spring day. The tom yum soup is spicy as well. I washed everything down with a couple of Singha beers too. I know there are other places in town that now serve more regional Thai cuisine but if you are looking to dine in with a variety of thai dishes and you are in central austin this is a good choice. read more

This was one of my first Thai food experiences in Austin and I absolutely loved it. Titaya's does not take reservations so I did a walk in with a group of 4 and got seated immediately on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered 3 tofu dishes - pad gra pow, which is some sort of a basil stir fry, a massaman curry and a basil fried rice. I also got a Thai iced tea. My favorite was definitely the fried rice - so flavorful and spicy. Would visit again! read more

I'll start off the review by saying the food was really good. I really enjoyed the dishes we got, they were packed with flavor. Now getting into the service, I didn't have a great experience. We walked in around 8pm and noticed that there was no one at the table to have us seated. Right behind us, a couple more people came in and sat down in the waiting area. We waited 5 minutes and a server came by to have us seated. She looked at us and immediately asked if we were the first people in line. I was caught off guard but said yes, to which she responded with "are you sure?" Honestly, I was disappointed with that service. I also think that she wouldn't have asked the other people who were waiting if they were up first. That interaction felt a little racially motivated. When we answered her back with a "yes," she looked us up and down and shrugged and said ok. Even while asking for our order, I felt some judgy energy coming off of her. Overall, the food was good and service was lacking in my opinion. read more

The ambiance of Titaya's is casual but fun. Got the Gang Garee (yellow curry), Pad See Ew and Thom Ka soup. Service was fast, got everything in fifteen minutes. The soup was a little too sour for my taste and the chicken felt a little undercooked and chewy. I could same for the chicken in the other dishes as well so if you're particular like me get another protein. Their pad see ew was good, vegetables paired nicely with the noodles texture wise- but it felt like it was missing something. I didn't really enjoy the curry as much as I thought I would, comforting and warming but felt too heavy for me almost. I feel like their other curries are probably better. Overall a decent place for Thai food, I guess I was just expecting more based on rave reviews. read more

Titaya's Thai Cuisine has delicious Thai food with great service at reasonable prices! I'll definitely be back to try some of their other dishes! FAST FACTS: * Parking - plenty available on the lot to the left of the restaurant * Reservations - no * Online ordering - available on their website through ChowNow * Closed on Mondays * Don't accept American Express SERVICE - Excellent! Our server was extremely pleasant and made sure we always had what we needed. Our waters were filled frequently and used plates were cleared quickly. Very impressed! PRICING - The total was $55.21 after tax ($4.21) but before tip for spinach dumplings ($7.50), som tum ($11.50), chicken pad Thai ($13.50), pad puk with shrimp ($14.50 + $2.00), and a side of white rice ($2.00). I felt like the pricing was very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality of ingredients! SPINACH DUMPLINGS (6/10) - These were just okay. The dumpling was good and they were steamed well but the spinach filling doesn't have much flavor. The highlight was the dipping sauce... definitely hold on to it to put on rice if you get some! I probably wouldn't order this again. SOM TUM (7/10) - Delicious and not super spicy compared to some other Thai places I've been to but a little pricey for the portion size. It's a great cold option and I loved the combination of full peanuts, peanut halves, and crushed peanuts. I'm happy I tried it but I probably wouldn't order it again. CHICKEN PAD THAI (9/10) - This was the best dish! The level of sweetness was perfect and the portion size was great for the price. There was a good amount of crushed peanuts on top and the chicken was cooked well. I'd definitely order this again! PAD PUK WITH SHRIMP (8/10) - I really enjoyed this! You get tons of veggies and I love the variety. The shrimp were cooked perfectly (served tail on) and you get a side of white rice. The stir fry sauce is very light and brothy... it doesn't have a ton of flavor but it's a great option for a more wholesome option. Overall, I was very impressed by Titaya's Thai Cuisine and will recommend it to others! The interior is really nice and the service is great... plus the food is delicious and the portion sizes match the pricing. read more

Been coming to Titaya's for years now, and the food and service is always consistent. We recently went before closing (they were still full!) and were sat quickly. There are a lot of tables, and waiting for a table ever takes more than 10 minutes. Lots of traditional Thai portraits and artwork all around. DRINKS They have alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Highly recommend the Vietnamese iced coffee.
