    Drunken noodle with chicken
    Natalie P.

    5 stars for portion size 5 stars for pricing compared to other options nearby 5 stars for the summer rolls and that peanut sauce! 4 stars for pad Thai Although not the absolute best Thai food I have had in my life, I would say it is very good for Charlotte. Definitely in my top 2. There was a good serving size of protein in my pad thai. The spicy levels seemed appropriate (I got no spicy but my husband got a medium spicy dish and enjoyed it). I really enjoyed my pad Thai for dinner (and lunch the next day). It had a great peanut flavor and good textured noodles. My favorite dish though was the summer roll.. yum! That peanut sauce is so addicting that I put it in with my pad Thai. The service for my call in order was exceptional. Friendly and honest, they told me the summer rolls would be $1 extra with shrimp. Not only that, but the young lady called to tell me when my order was ready to picked up. All in all, I will happily keep Aroy Thai in my take out rotation. We had a happy and full family after visiting!

    Was close to this restaurant and tried the pad see ew though it tasted pretty good the dish lacked seasoning. The spice level was good! Service was fast and the location was pretty small I saw a lot of door dash I would return to try other dishes

    Strawberry Boba
    Amber D.

    Coming back here after a one year hiatus was like a breath of Thai air that I needed desperately and didn't even realize it until I walked through those doors! The wait staff were as quick as you could dream for in taking our orders, and returned with our food just as quickly! The lunch portions were quite large and we were very happy with the fact we could bring home a little bit of Thai happiness for a second meal later! We enjoyed Pad See Ew, Garlic Chicken, and Chicken Fried Rice. Each meal was exceptionally good and very flavorful! One of my sons ordered a huge glass of strawberry boba, and said it was "the best", so I guess I will trust his judgment on that! The eatery itself is very relaxing, inviting, serene, and just felt an overall feeling of being very welcomed here! The fish tank was a nice touch for sheer eye candy alone. Although this place appears to be a whole in the wall, it stays quite busy and is much larger inside than you might expect! Don't be deceived by outward appearances this is a gem on a main road and you would be a fool not to stop and enjoy all it has to offer!

    Let this be a push for you to try Aroy Thai! I've always, always loved the food here. I believe there was a change of owner/management but the food has stayed at the same fantastic level. This was my first time dining in. The mix match tables and chairs adds a no-frills touch but the space is cute. The host at the front also took our order and had nice small talk and was very kind. We got goyza (not like any goyza I've had. This was very crispy fried but the flavor was really nice and I didn't mind the crunch), edamame, summer rolls with shrimp (very large size rolls with great fresh taste with crisp vegetables inside) and I could eat the plum sauce that they are served with on EVERYTHING! Entrees were 2 pad kee mau with chicken and extra vegetables and the other with chicken and shrimp, both level 3 - not a big lingering spice but the heat is there. This is the type of place where I always have intentions of trying something new but because this order is so good, it has me in a tight hold.

    This is my first time trying thai tea and chicken panang curry and it was so good! Great spices and good comfort food

    T1. Pad Thai  T2. Pad See Ew
    Tammy T.

    This was the saltiest pad see ew (both plates in the picture) of my life. I've never been so dehydrated from a dish. Very disappointing. You can also see that it's inconsistent between the two dishes, one is darker than the other. We've had 5 people tried the dish and they all complained it was salty. The only good and well balanced, edible dish was the pad Thai. Love that they put aluminum foil under the food so it wouldn't leak through the boxes. Another point I wanted to bring up is that they were fast with the take out order. On time and we didn't have to wait long.

    Shrimp Fried Rice
    Kate T.

    Since COVID-19 started I have continued to support local and order delivery or pickup. When I need my Thai fix Aroy has been my go to spot. They currently offer delivery, as for dine in not sure, but everything arrives piping hot and just as fresh as I remember when I dined in. Stand outs for my are always the Crab Rangoon, and I love their Thai Fried Rice. Unlike Chinese fried rice it includes stewed tomatoes, cucumbers and lime. If you're into Fried Rice, or looking for a good Thai delivery during these times, Aroy is worth a try!

    Papaya salad with pork rinds
    Debra W.

    After a fellow yelper posted photos, I knew I had to come. So after a trip to the Asian supermarket I stopped here for lunch. I walked in and unfamiliar with the set up I placed my order at the counter but I could have placed my order after sitting at a table. It's cute inside with a minimal amount of tables, definitely looks like most of their business is to go and carry out orders. I couldn't decide what I wanted so went with my standard faves and how I determine if a Thai restaurant is worth coming back to. I ordered sum tom, larb and pad see ewe. I ordered everything Thai spicy except the noodles and it definitely did not disappoint on heat. The flavor on the sum tom (green papaya salad) was delicious and on point. The larb salad was warm and full of flavor. I only wished the larb salad came with lots of lettuce or cabbage to enjoy it with. The service was exceptional and anything I asked for or needed, I had.

    Green curry
    LaPriya A.

    I go there to eat green curry because it used to be authentic and it reminded me of my grandmas green curry. However im disappointed because its not used to be like a year ago. There is no thai basil and no toasted dehydrated thai chili anymore

    Thai Tea
    Anthony T.

    It doesn't look like much on the outside and it is fairly easily to miss when driving down Independence but do not sleep on Aroy Thai. My friends and I shared several of their appetizers and entrees together, family style. Everything was excellent. And if you like things to be spicy when you order spicy, they'll do you right here.

I had recently tried this drink at another Haraz location and loved it so much that I officially considered myself a matcha drinker. When I received my drink, I noticed it looked much pinker than it had at the other locations I'd visited. I assumed it had just been mixed and that the usual layers of matcha, strawberry, and whipped cloud had blended together, so I didn't think much of it. However, after taking my first sip in the car, it immediately tasted like strawberry milk. Since I was on my way to work, I kept drinking it, expecting the matcha flavor to come through, but it never did. It was disappointing because the drink was nothing like the one I've had several times at other Haraz locations. I hope this location places an emphasis on training and consistency so the drinks meet the same standard as the rest of the Haraz locations. On a positive note, the staff members were kind, welcoming, and greeted me as soon as I walked in.
