Pad woon sen $15
Diana L.

This restaurant is no longer worth the value. For $15, I got a kid's size portion of food. There were 3 scoops of noodle and they filled it up with more rice instead. I asked for no onions and half of the dish was onions. It was also really salty. Other entrees on the menu were $15-20. My partner ordered drunken noodles and got a similar portion size. We are grown adults and shouldn't have to leave a restaurant hungry after eating our entrees. Now I have to go home and cook another dinner for both of us. It is no longer economical to eat here and we will not be returning.

Just drunken flavorful and spicy!

Upon walking, in you are greeted with service that is fitting for the environment which you're about to dine in...exceptional! This visit I had the drunken noodles and the crab Rangoon (crab delight). Although my staple dish (Thai curry is superb) this meal was bold, spicy, and full of exquisite flavors! However, the only negative thing I would say about this dish was the texture but that's a personal preference as I have a text issue especially with food... again, it is drunken noodles!

Pad See Ew
Heah-in O.

I got pad see ew and it looked pretty good but unfortunately it was flavorless. I feel like it was lacking garlic especially. It just tasted like the oil and firey taste. I've had better in this area. Also, I sadly found this piece of metal twister piece (something you would use to twist food together) in the food which was very disappointing. To add to that, they just gave a 10% discount for their mistake. I thought it was not really much of a discount and I will not be returning to this restaurant. The yelp reviews were at 4.1, so I thought the food would be decent. My friend got the tom yum noodle soup and the soup was lukewarm. The bowl was steaming but the soup was not hot. It was quite strange. The flavor of the soup was nice but lacking that hot soup. Also, we went around 5:40PM and there was not many people there... maybe people do more takeout here? I am not sure. Anyways, I would go to a different Thai restaurant!

Drunken Noodles with chicken

If you haven't tried U-SA Thai Restaurant yet, what are you waiting for? The service is friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The good is consistently great too! Everything from their Tom Yum soup to their green curry chicken and their drunken noodles... You can't go wrong with anything on the menu! It's a small place & nothing fancy, but has a nice cafe vibe. Their spice levels are spot-on & they don't profile you when you ask for heat, unlike a lot of Thai restaurants tend to do.

There was a hair in my food and the restaurant did not believe me. They said it had never happened to them and I was lying. I took a picture and still was told no. Horrible service.

Potak
Mic T.

First time to try this place. I love the food. Service is pleasant too. Servings are kinda not really for sharing. Well at least for Potak its single serve portion - the fried tofu well depending on how hungry you are, i can say for 2 people. The main course we got is the salmon curry (not in the picture) was delicious. We came for the crab, theyre all out. Will come back some other day and try our luck with the soft shell crab. Its easy to find. Huge parking lot. In between Burlington Coat Factory and Great Wall grocery store in Fairfax.

Located right next to Great Wall and Yi Fang- perfect place for takeout and dining in! The decor and atmosphere is lovely, and the staff here is extremely friendly and efficient. The Chicken Basil was unique and had a nice crunch too and and a good dipping sauce! TOM YUM SOUP IS SO FLAVORFUL. Perfect balance of sour and sweet, and love the little cap mushrooms in them. The egg rolls are very fulfilling in itself and has a perfect fried golden crust. The noodles here like the Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles have been very tasty and flavorful. Overall i love this place! I think the employees here make the cherry on top since they're always so sweet and have awesome service c: Can't wait to try more of the menu like the Soft Shell Crabs and Duck Curry! P.S. They decorate their togo boxes :) Every time I order takeout, I can't help but snap a pic of the boxes~ I love the attention to detail!

Larb Gai
Janet K.

I'm unsure whether this place is called USA Thai or Babusa Thai - but either way this place is delicious and I'd definitely recommend coming here. The store interior is clean and beautiful. The service was friendly and fast. Chicken Larb: 4.5/5 - Spicy, tangy, and well seasoned. Definitely recommend getting if you're looking for a chicken dish! Crispy Basil Duck: 4.5/5 - the crispy duck was nice and crispy. The outside was crispy while the inside was juicy and tender. Pad Prik Khing: 3.5/5 - I got this made with beef and it was ok - it hit all the right notes; it was salty and spicy. I don't recommend getting this if you're trying to avoid carbs because I think eating it with rice helps balance the saltiness out.

Soup with coconut milk, mushrooms and chicken
Indira J.

This is a very nice place, starting from the service, clean and delicious food. Atmosphere is very relaxing! Soup with coconut milk so a flavor explosion - delicious. Glass noodle dish was light, refreshing and filling! Mango sticky rice was just right! Definitely coming back for some more! Highly recommend!!!

Thai fried rice

THE BEST AUTHENTIC THAI FOOD IN TOWN!! Me and my boyfriend like to try out new thai places and this place has become our go to thai food spot. Why is it the most authentic? Because the food is real Thai Grandma's food.

1st and the last at this place! Too bad! Service was good but quality of the food was bad!

Those black specks are all charred specks of something. Not seasoning. Not black pepper.

To wrap up the meal, their desserts are always solid too! Their servers are friendly and easy going!

The space is very small, maybe 10 tables. There's some parking that might be available in a small lot across the street and a half block away. I ordered Tom Ka Gai soup with Chicken, and Drunken Noodles with beef. Seems simple enough. And yet, there were three issues with these two dishes. I was really hopeful when they brought out my bowl of soup, mostly because it was a BOWL of soup and not the more typical cup-sized serving. The bad news was that the soup was tasteless. It consisted of a watery broth, some chunks of chicken, and a few mushrooms. (Issue #1). The six of us were two or three spoonfuls into our soups when the waiter brought our entrees. I don't know about you, but I like to finish one course before the next one is brought to my table, and I'm faced with having to decide which dish I want to let get cold. (Issue #2) In this case, the choice seemed obvious. I pushed the bowl of soup away and dug into my Drunken Noodles. Like many people, I typically order Drunken Noodles at Thai restaurants. I've had it dozens of times without any problems. I say "Drunken Noodles," they bring it (usually after I've finished my soup or appetizer), and I enjoy it. That's not what happened this time. This time, it was almost too spicy to eat. It was MUCH spicier than any other Drunken Noodles-es I've had. And I wasn't alone; another one of us could only handle a few bites of her food before giving up. (Issue #3) I may give this place another try, and if I do, my visit will include the advice that I just shared with you at the top of this review.

The restaurant is a longer, more compressed layout that has a lot of seating for a smaller space, but it can really fill up. The service is consistent across servers that I've experienced - they are neutrally friendly; the service is a little over the bare minimum, but not disappointing. They won't make you feel like you're special but instead like you're just another customer that they are going to feed and send on your way. No complaints. The food is consistently good, hence we keep coming back when we visit the area. We normally get the summer rolls, thai red curry, and pad thai. It's fresh, delicious, and something I look forward to enjoying when we are in town.

I had the lunch special here on a Friday and it was pretty darn good. Tastes were authentic but the "spicy" dishes could have used more spice. The lunch special offers 2 sides from among 3 choices: fried spring roll, papaya salad, or tom yum chicken soup. Since I had dining companions, I tried all three. The fried spring roll was average. It was not a fried stick of tasteless goo like at some other places. It had decent structure inside and good flavor, but it was rather plain. The sweet chili sauce on it was average and also had somewhat of an artificial pinkish hue to it. The tom yum chicken soup was similarly average but tasty enough to be satisfying. In my opinion, the papaya salad was the best of these three. It was crisp and fresh tasting, and had a good hint of chili spice to it. For entrees, we had the garlic tofu, drunken noodles, and chicken pad krapow. The garlic tofu came in a ring of undercooked broccoli. It could have been steamed longer or integrated with the cooking of the tofu and sauce. The flavor profile was lighter and less intense than at other Thai restaurants. Both the drunken noodles and the pad krapow delivered with familiar flavors, but underperformed on spice level. They were both denoted on the menu with 2 chili symbols but really came out weak (1 or less on the Universal Thai Spice Scale - UTSS). I'd come back here for the lunch special, or just to try anything else off the full menu, but I'd want to ask the kitchen to up their seasoning to match UTSS standards.

It's so rare that I don't like a Thai restaurant but this one definitely let me down. I wanted to…read moretry this place because it was close to where we were one Saturday evening. But the place was pretty empty, and I think I can understand why. The food here in my opinion is below average. I ordered a medium spice level Drunken Noodles with Chicken but I swear this was Extra Spicy--this is coming from a person that has a pretty high spice tolerance. Not only that, but it had a very tangy flavor to it as well. I've never had drunken noodles be this tangy. It did not taste right at all. This is one of my go to Thai dishes that I have ordered at many many restaurants. My husband got the Kob Kun Fried Rice. His dish was okay, but sort of strange. They kind of just plopped some crab on top (see pic) and didn't actually mix it into the fried rice. The crab they put on top was kind of cold, while the rest of the dish was hot. I thought that was odd. Even then it was better than my dish. So my husband, who has an higher spice tolerance than me, offered to swap dishes with me but even he could not handle it. It was spicy in a truly unenjoyable way. This sucks because I ordered a medium and they did not take that into account at all when making it. I had to do what I very rarely do--I asked if I could kindly send the dish back and I explained my issue. They were nice enough to let me order something different. I got the green curry with chicken. Sad thing is I got this mild in an effort to not have the spice issue again. However this time, my curry was completely sweet. I do actually like some spice in my thai food so this whole experience really sucked. I feel like I've made better thai curry at home, I will not be going back.

With light jazz music playing in the background, this restaurant is lined with wood floors, walls, booths, tables, chairs and a bar. As we sat down, we were greeted with glasses of water along with a plate of boiled pods of edamame beans along with a sauce plate of sriracha & sweet soy sauce. Yummy. A sign of a good Thai restaurant is their Drunken Noodle & Thai Fried rice. We ordered the Chicken Drunken Noodle medium spicy & Thai Crabmeat fried rice. Let's see if it has wok hei? After 15 mins, our food arrived. The portions for both plates were above average. First the crabmeat fried rice. See the picture. Very colorful. There were large lumps of crabmeat as well as flakes/strands throughout the fried rice. I smell some wok hei. There was a side of spicy Thai lime juice sauce. It was good but odd that it came with the rice. The fried rice was very crabby in flavor and smell. But the taste was missing a little more salt. Here is were you order the Spice Tray. Throw some fish sauce with red Thai chilis. Or, what I did was mix some sweet soy sauce to elevate the flavor profile. Salty and sweet with the fried rice. The star of the show was the Chicken Drunken Noodle. So many flavors of spicy, sweet, salty & herby from the basil. Add some vinegar & chilis along with fish sauce & chilis to give the sour & umami flavors. The noodles were very soft and piping hot, even after 10 mins. Some wok hei too! This is probably one of the best Drunken Noodles in the area. Even my son said it was full of flavor & best he has ever had. Service was good. Our glasses of water were refilled multiple times. It's a little one higher end of moderate but the quality was very good. We found a gem! Definitely recommend & we will be back!
