    Pad Thai
    Teresa B.

    Fast friendly service Food creatively displayed. Can make food low sodium. Looks very clean and minimalistic but the pictures of Thailand make me want to get on a plane and Go!

    Clockwise: Gai Yang, Pineapple fried rice with chicken, khao soi with chicken.

    Loveeeeeeeeee 9 Pad Thai but don't go there starving, the wait is a bit longer than most restaurants :)

    Shrimp Drunkin noodles!
    Mariella M.

    The flavors were bold, balanced and absolutely addictive! The kind of meal you daydream about later! I ordered lunch pick up, I don't know why I never stopped by here before, it's definitely a hidden GEM! I had the shrimp drunken noodles, I ordered it medium spice and it was perfect! The noodles had a bite to them that was a party in my mouth. I walked in and was greeted by a very kind young lady, the whole atmosphere/aura of this small restaurant was welcoming! Definitely coming back with my family and will definitely recommend to all my friends!!

    Decided to try 9 Pad Thai after reading great reviews and ordered carryout around 9:30 PM (Panang Curry and Drunken Noodles with chicken, around $18 each). When I got home, Drunken Noodles were good and flavorful, However, I was really disappointed with the Panang Curry. The container was less than half full, and the curry itself was quite watery. Giving them the benefit of the doubt--thinking it might have just been because it was near closing, or that I misunderstood their typical portion sizes--I actually went back the next day in person to show them photos of the dish and ask if this was standard. Unfortunately, the interaction wasn't very helpful. The staff member pointed to a menu photo (which doesn't really show actual portion sizes for take-out) and told me to return two days later when the owner was in to ask for a refund. I wasn't looking for a refund; I just wanted to share feedback on the quality and portion size and see if they would like an opportunity to make it right. Packaging-wise, using such a large take-out container for a small portion also makes the meal feel incomplete. There is a lot of great Thai food in the area, and good customer service makes all the difference. I tried to give them an opportunity, at the very least, they could've asked for my number to have their manager call. It is okay, I will try a different restaurant when in the Springfield, VA area

    A simple and authentic Thai food. A family owned (Lovely to meet them today) place with warm service! Place is quaint with some Asian inspired decor. Whether its your first time to try this restaurant or you became a regular, I bet you will say its true!

    Drunken Noodles
    Tiffany N.

    How have I never been here before?! This place is so great. The restaurant is clean and inviting, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming. I got take out so I can't speak for the service. The drunken noodles might be my new favorite in the area. The spice level is perfect, the meat is tender and the noodles the perfect chewiness. The sauce is delicious. You cannot beat the value at this place. Wow. Will definitely return!

    Fried Rice
    Pranav P.

    Ordered through grubby, found out ordering on the website would've saved me 10% based on fees which is eh, food was fire really liked the panang curry, I don't usually finish the rice with panang curries but I actually did this time. Fried rice was very tasty as well

    Thai Firecracker Shrimp (New item)
    Christy N.

    I came here for my lunch break, with high hopes due to the rating. When I walked in it was completely empty. I would like to explain my experience within the first minute of me stepping in. Me: One for here Lady in hoodie: *saying loudly across the restaurant* picking up? Me: No one for here Lady: For here? how many people Me: One. Throughout the interaction, she came off rude and annoyed so it was already distasteful. As I sat down, i noticed that the area itself is clean. Another lady in a hat served me and she was really sweet. As I was ordering, I asked if they had wifi (because on settings it says "9 PadThai wifi" and as she was going to respond, the lady in the hoodie interject from across the restaurant saying no. I did not appreciate the attitude as I am just asking a question, the service was 50/50, one lady was nice, the other was completely rude. It does not help that I saw the same lady in a hoodie greet some customers warmly and other ice cold. I ordered the firecracker shrimp as an appetizer and came with a complementary fried roll. Both items were average, nothing special. I was imagining something like bang bang shrimp based off of the name and description. The shrimp itself was good, very fresh and soft. I was wowed by the pad thai. Very delicious and flavorful, I asked for thai spicy so there was a small kick, but enjoyable to eat. Overall the food was 50/50, the service was 50/50, I do not think I will be coming back solely because of that interaction. This place is always having people picking up so maybe take out is the way to go for this location.

    MUSHROOM in the Pad Thai
    Sarah M.

    This is our go-to Thai place for quick pickup near home. I love their drunken noodles and the red curry always hits. We always pickup, so I've never dined in, but I have never seen it crowded. Despite being relatively consistent, there is a girl who works here, whenever we order the pad thai without mushrooms she says, "they don't put mushrooms in it." Without fail, when we get home, it has mushrooms. Happened for easily the 5th time tonight so I felt compelled to write this review and leave this photo. Please. When someone says they don't want something specific in it, write it down, even if you think it's not in the dish to begin with. People have allergies and sometimes they're serious enough that they can't eat the dish at all, even after removing the ingredient in question.

    It's been a while so we decided to try this evening. We asked for the pad prik king with a little spice. It was good but too spicey. We couldn't eat it. It was replaced with shrimp with mixed vegetables. Food was very good. I would return only earlier in the evening.

    Papaya Salad
    WILLIAM P.

    What an incredible find. We ate at a good Thai restaurant the previous day and our cousins invited us to try 9 Pad Thai. Needless to say we were blown away by their unique take on Thai Cuisine. Top notch were the Crispy Pad Thai, Crispy Duck and Soft shell crab. All dishes were 3 star with the exception of the calamari which was more crust and little calamari. The service was attentive and friendly. The ambiance was relaxed and simple The also served both Singha and Chang Beer, which paired well with the Thai spices.

When near Springfield, Thai Ghang Waan has become one of our regular stops, and after a few visits, I've started to notice a pattern--their salads and smaller plates have consistently impressed me more than the mains. Maybe I'm just ordering the wrong entrées, but that's been my experience so far. One thing they definitely don't mess around with is spice. I ordered medium, and it had me sweating by the end of the meal. Our favorites are the crispy rice salad and the fried watercress salad--both are packed with flavor and worth ordering every time. On previous visits, we also really enjoyed the oyster pancake and the Goong Chae Nam Pla (raw shrimp). Service has always been excellent too. Our water glasses were refilled without us ever having to ask, which is always appreciated. We'll definitely keep coming back, but next time I think we'll stick to what they do best and load up on the appetizers and salads.

    I met a friend for lunch at Thai Cafe on a Saturday. Parking near the restaurant that is part of…read morethe Springfield Mall is frankly a bit challenging. With a little persistence and a short walk, I found a spot. Walking in to the restaurant, there is a small greeting counter. No one was there and so we walked to the back. You don't see the tables when walking into the place, I suspect the kitchen is along side the hallway leading to the tables. The ambiance is friendly, casual with the tables and booths well spaced to provide privacy. The restaurant was relatively empty during our meal and the noise level was comfortable, allowing us to have conversation easily. Thai food is one of my two favorite and I am always looking for a new place to be inspired. I put Thai Cafe on my list of places that I'll return to. I started my meal with Tom Yum Seafood soup. The flavor was really excellent. Two minor things for me: I like soup warm and not hot. For me, the temp was perfect but for other people who like their soup really hot, it probably wasn't hot enough. The other issue is 'how spicy does this restaurant prepare their food?' The soup was 1 pepper, which was a bit milder than I prefer, but accurate. I added a bit more spice. I chose the vegetarian Kapow Pak. The dish is prepared in a brown sauce which frankly isn't my favorite. But it was really good. The veges were fresh, crisp and crunchy, and the tofu was wonderfully lightly fried. The dish is described as medium spicy, reasonably accurate. My friend chose the Pad Woon Sean with chicken. I didn't try it but he said it was a 10/10. The staff were friendly, helpful, and helped me select my dish. This is a family business that's been open for about 30 years. The servers were totally wonderful. I will certainly be back.

The Tom Yum soup was very good. The flavor of the spicy Tom Kha soup was also very good. Even if it's traditional to be prepared this way, I didn't like the hard pieces of lemongrass in the soup I had to pick out. I ordered the lunch special pork Phad Thai. With bits of pink-tipped barbecued pork the smoky flavored Phad Thai was good, even if it was served on a plate that was a tad too small. The Gai Tod crispy chicken came with a yellow curry sauce. The perfectly seasoned curry sauce was delicious and the chicken excellent. My Thai Iced Coffee was excellent. The best part of our meal was the mango sticky rice for dessert. The mango was sweet and ripe and the rice with condensed milk was wonderful. We do wish that they hadn't brought out entrees almost immediately after our appetizers. That made for a crowded table.

If i weren't eating with polite company, I would have probably slurped the remaining dressing from the salad bowl. I'm definitely coming back and it shouldn't be difficult because the prices seem fairly inexpensive.
