Basil Fried Rice
Likhitha c.

I'm a huge fan of Thai cuisine and so is my family! We took my brother here for his 20th birthday, after I randomly stumbled upon this spot, and it absolutely exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious. I especially loved the Thai basil fried rice and the ambience was beautiful. The owners were incredibly humble and accommodating, making adjustments based on our dietary restrictions without any hesitation. Give it a try and thank me later

Cheese Puff

I walked in right when it opened and was greeted by the cashier. I placed a togo order and it was ready in about 5 minutes! That was pretty quick! I thoroughly enjoyed the wontons. Crispy in the edges and great filling to dough ratio. I felt like the pad Thai could use a little more flavor. I still enjoyed it but it was just missing something. The store was located in a nice outdoor strip mall with plenty of parking. The restaurant itself is clean and pleasant.

Pad See Ew with tofu
Trish N.

My sister and I were craving thai food and we saw one super close to us in the neighborhood. We placed an order for to go and it was done in 5-10 minutes! The portions were good for their pricing as well. They offer good lunch specials during the week too that I want to come back and try. The hot spice level was perfect for me. The pad see ew was so flavorful and the tofu had a nice crispiness to the outside but soft on the inside. I liked that it wasn't too oily either. The pad thai was a solid choice and the noodle portion was huge.

Neighborhood charm with good service. Nestled between multi other restaurants (try the Jamaican spot next door). I have been wanting to try this place for a while, so it had been on my list. Happy to see the reviews are pretty solid. Seems like a great place to grab lunch, probably the main attraction. Came here for the first time with my family around 7p. The place was pretty dead, but it was a weekday evening, so maybe the crowd had left. I wasn't mad at this at all. Because it equaled fast and exclusive service. Service - was great, our lovely server Pam was kind, she had a grandma deminure, so sweet. Not sure if Pam is the owner, but I will find out more my next visit. All food came out hot and tasty. She gave us recd's on spice level and items to order. Food- we did family style. Ordered pork egg rolls, seafood fried rice, entree cashew with the combo meat of beef, shrimp, chicken. And the curry which came with white rice. Plenty of takeaway. For sure will be back. Thanks Pam!

Pad See Ew
Herman L.

Easy quick lunch here. Staff is super friendly and can't beat the price for the lunch specials. Portions sort of reflect the lunch size but it's enough. Flavors are great and the medium spice level has a good kick. No frills and just good food.

Tom Kha Shrimp
Sarah B.

This is a small family owned business serving authentic Thai food. And it's so good. I went just for soup this time. I ordered the Tom Kha soup with shrimp and white rice on the side for an appetizer. The flavor! Everything was so fresh and the shrimp were huge! I loved the tanginess and creaminess of the soup. I will definitely come back here for more delicious and authentic thai food.

L Ginger (not available after 3pm)
Jennifer V.

I pass this place daily on the way to work! I finally tried the lunch special ginger beef steamed rice plate for $11. Portion was a bit small but the beef was very tasty. My friend got lunch special chicken panang curry and that was definitely too small and not filling. The curry was alright, nothing special. We both got medium, and the spice level was actually accurate. The complimentary tap water was not good. While food was good, I think there are other places that I can get more for the same amount of money.

Pad Thai
Katherine D.

Came during the lunch special and I think it's definitely worth it. It's a good portion size for the price and it was really good! I really like the pad Thai and pad see ew and the green curry. We were greeted and able to order as soon as we got there and the servers were super attentive. It's a nice little restaurant in a strip, super easy to go to and meet w friends. Definitely going again

Tom Kha Chicken
Shakib I.

I would 100% come back, the Thai food here is great! I came with my family food a quick bite after a Texans game, so there wasn't much of a wait. I got the Pad Kee Mow with chicken, hot, and it was so good! The spice was just right, giving me enough heat that I had to take some time to sip on Thai iced tea to cool off in between bites, but not spicy enough that I couldn't enjoy the flavors. My wife got a tom yum soup -- they accidentally brought out tom kha soup, but promptly realized they brought the wrong item and got us the right soup. Both were excellent, and came out quickly. I liked the fast service, our waitress was really attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The next time I've got a craving for Thai, I'll be back!

Food was made fresh and was flavorful. Pineapple chicken curry was literally just that. No other veggie in there. Fried rice and spicy fish sauce were super delish. 5/5 was service. We went an hour before closing and they were so kind. It was clean inside. No sticky tables, floor was clean. No trash. I would def recommend. Is it the best Thai food ever? No. Not at all. Mid. However it is the best Thai place around here if you're not going to Bellaire.

Basil Fried Rice with shrimp
Lex R.

This was my second time dining in and everything was just as good as before. Food was fresh, reasonable portions with enough for leftovers, and staff was nice/attentive! Those shrimp tho

Pad Kee Mow with beef
Shannon T.

Loved this place the first time I tried it, and it continues to be a staple place to go! This time, I tried the pad kee mow with beef and drunken macaroni. I got it without spice, and both dishes tasted delicious with a nice basil flavor. They tasted actually very similar and basically have the same ingredients. I opted for no spice but I think it'd be more delicious with just a little added spice. The portions are huge and always so delicious!! 10/10 recommend supporting them!

Char I.

New Thai restaurant in the med center area! This restaurant is located in a shopping center between a barbershop and a gas station. They area kind of gives shade tree but once inside the restaurant the vibes are good! The woman at the counter is very friendly. I ordered the Thai basil with white rice and some veggie egg rolls! Very fresh and well seasoned! The egg rolls come in a 4 pack and they are definitely cooking with fresh oil because they were great! As pictured you get a good sized portion of food! I will definitely be back to try more things on the menu!

Not bad for a local Thai eatery! Not for the connoisseur of Thai food but it will do.. very spicy even if you ask for regular.

The dining area is pretty small, with around 10 tables, but it was surprisingly busy with so many people coming in to eat. It gave me that hidden-gem kind of feeling, like a local spot that people know is really good. The food was honestly delicious and tasted quite authentic compared to other Thai restaurants I've tried. Everything was flavorful and well-seasoned, and our food came out surprisingly fast. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a little hidden gem that I'm happy to have found near my home. I'll definitely be coming back!

I wouldn't necessarily sit down here but if you want to you can. More of a grocery store than sit down restaurant. Khao soi gai: 7/10 This was so flavorful and delicious but definitely should have opted for the chicken instead of the soft shell crab I wasn't really a fan of the crab. Love the flavors and textures though. Definitely want to try with chicken and I recommend getting some rice on the side. Pad mama: 9/10 This had a really yummy vibrant flavor with a good amount of protein and leafy greens. Could be spicier I think the just gave us a random spice level. Overall really yummy and good portion for the prices but would love to retry with more spice in the dishes.

The tea stand, handmade antique teapot and tea cups are so cute. Love the butterfly pea flower tea. It is such a gorgeous shade of indigo blue. Love the magic when acid like lemon is added to transform the tea to a magenta or purple shade. The tower of treats for the tea comes with pairs of sweet and savory treats. They were able to accommodate my dietary restrictions for no pork or shellfish. Thank you! Loved the tiny spoons filled with appetizers and desserts. The Thai High Tea is available Fridays to Sundays from 11:30-3PM. A deal at $35 for two people. Would definitely come back to enjoy another Thai High Tea or dinner.

I was given a large tea pot and the tea came pre sweetened and I could choose from a variety of flavors of tea. The experience also came with a bird cage of appetizers that were normal sized and was offered in a buffet style format. Whenever you wanted more of an appetizer, you were given more by request (this is why you paid the $40 plus dollars for that experience). I went today 9/20/26 and was told they only had two types of tea (for a High Tea reservation!!!!)...my appetizers were on a diet and looked nothing like my first experience. The appetizers weren't offered buffet style...WHAT GIVES? Why even spend $40 for baby sized food.

I went with my husband during Houston Restaurant Week, and maybe that was my mistake…read more We got the Thai ice tea and Thai jasmine green tea for drinks, squid and tofu for appetizers, the crying tiger and kua kling for entrees, and the sticky rice with mango and the coconut ice cream for desserts. I can confidently say that I was disappointed. There was not one dish that stood out or that I would recommend or come back for. I especially was sad that the crying tiger flavors really missed the mark. The sticky rice that came with it felt like it was reheated and some parts were hard. It also tasted like some of the vegetables (green beans and carrots) that come with the entrees were frozen, not fresh. The jasmine green tea tastes like a powder mix. Some of the squid tasted freezer burned. The kua kling was the most interesting and unique of the dishes, but not one that I would go out of my way to eat again. The sticky rice with mango was as expected. The coconut ice cream is probably pre-portioned and frozen so was rock solid when it came out. I did not find most of the toppings particularly good. It was a busy Friday and I know service was busy. The food did not take long to come out, but we definitely had dishes from previous courses that stacked up, and we had to ask them to be taken away. They do have a high chair for toddlers and brought a plastic plate/utensils, but there was not a changing table in the bathroom we used. We have had such great experiences at other Thai restaurants in Houston that I would not come back.

It could easily reach that level. Our waitress, Ann, was incredibly kind, soft spoken, and welcoming. My friend Sherita suggested this restaurant after we left a Yelp office hour, and I'm so glad she did because it introduced me to something I never knew I needed: the salmon mango fried rice. It was absolutely amazing. I originally planned to take some home for my son to try, but it was so delicious that I finished every bite in one sitting. Sherita had visited earlier in the week and tonight shared that she arrived; right before I walked in which was 30 minutes before closing time, Jackie told her to hurry up and order, even though she already knew exactly what she wanted and didn't even need a menu. Jackie response was unprofessional and didn't even wait till the table guest got to the table, which was less than seconds since we all arrive at the same time, and left the same place. During our visit, Jackie never brought us water. A couple who was seated after us received water before we did. It took over 10 minutes for us to get water. Ann took great care of us, but anytime we wanted a refill, we had to ask. At one point my glass was completely empty. I noticed Jackie refilling the water glasses for a table of six, so I managed to get his attention. He looked directly at me, scanned the room, then stomped away all fast without acknowledging my request. Instead, he told Ann that we wanted water, and she graciously brought it over. Even at the end of our meal, Jackie stood behind the register while my friends waited to pay, yet another employee ended up taking their payment. His overall energy felt very cold and unwelcoming. My friend even joked that it was probably for the best that he didn't refill my water because of the energy he was carrying. As someone who believes water absorbs energy, I honestly agreed. I'm grateful Ann was the one who served us with such kindness. The restaurant itself has such a peaceful, zen atmosphere. The greenery outside and the warm lighting inside create a cozy neighborhood spot that I truly want to love and revisit with my son. Thank you , Sherita for introducing me and Aaliyah to this hidden gem. I completely understand why you visited twice in one week. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu, and hopefully next time the hospitality matches the quality of the food.
