This is my second visit, but for some reason it wasn't as good as the first time. I got the exact same things as my first visit- vegetable pho and pad see ew. I can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe the vegetable stock didn't brew with vegetable a lot? I don't know. The pad see ew was excellent though! I will give this location another chance though. I do like the hole in the wall feel of the place and I do like that it is a small intimate room where everyone sit close together, it feels homey/cozy. read more

South Dallas doesn't have very many options for Thai or pho and am happy that we have at least one good spot to go to! Had a bit of buffet when we went. Both me and my partner had pho and pad see ew. It was all super delicious. Service was quick and polite. The place is pretty cool. The curry chicken pho was amazing. It's got a nice outside area, inside dining too and a bar area where people seem to congregate and watch sports games. Very chill. Definitely recommend! read more

My husband has stopped in twice after work to pick up a pho for me this past week as I've been under the weather. He said everyone was super nice and welcoming as soon as he walked in. Great service. Their pho is pretty good. I'd rate 8 out of 10, although it's lacking just a little tad bit in flavor the broth is clean and good. It came with a small amount of veggies but it was fine. There's something about a good bowl of pho when you're under the weather. It did hit the spot! read more

The food is always great in the service is awesome. I like to get their pho and their shrimp pad thai both very good and comforting!

This review is only for the Pho. I got the Chicken Pho and my GOODNESS it was MEGA BLAND. But I fixed it so hang in there. The service was amazing so I have no complaints there, it's just that like they don't season ANYTHING AT ANY STEP. The chicken was Super tender, but tasted like NOTHING. The broth looked good -not too greasy, but some grease which I like. But my God it tasted like NOTHING. I was hesitant to ask, but I asked for some salt and put an ungodly amount of salt in my broth and added more Sriracha that I usually do. I added ALL the jalapeños and asked for extra limes (they're big so I didn't think I'd use them all). I ended up using all three of those as well and FINALLY, it was tasty. I'm not saying don't go, but if you're going for the pho, don't be afraid to ask for the salt shaker and right when you think it's enough, dash a bit more. This place has so much potential bc everything was ALMOST the way I like it like the tender meat and the amount of oil in the broth, but my GOODNESS they just need to pick up some salt and seasonings and throw it in the pot and on the meat. read more

I tried one of the coconut curries and it was delicious. If you like sweet food then a coconut curry is the way, if not then i recommend the curry that does not have a coconut creme. read more

Hadn't been to Chan Thai in almost 10 years. We need a centrally located restaurant and when I saw Chan Thai had moved (I assume around Covid timeframe) I was so thrilled to go again! This was my Thai "go-to" for years, and let me tell you... they did not disappoint! It was as great as I remembered! So glad to find them again... read more

This was a great place to go for dinner. And we had a wonderful experience. The food was really good. We ordered the bees knee and some type of noodle dish with chicken and my husband and I were very impressed with it. It had basil also and loads of vegetables. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating, and our food was brought out very fast as we ordered our drinks. We got our appetizers a couple of minutes later I highly recommend for anyone to go here. It is a very special place. The only recommendation I would have to change would be the spring rolls sauce that comes with it Was not my favorite. I think it could've been spicy or something else but everything else was great and I would come back here in a heartbeat. read more

The citrus chicken is my favorite dish here. Everyone is friendly and service is wonderful. I come at least 2 times a week and the staff always says hello and even recommends new drinks and foods. Everyone should try something new on their menu because the food is always fresh and hot! read more

If you're looking to have an actual Korean bbq rice platter I would recommend going elsewhere where. The portion was ok a little on the smaller side. The one thing i enjoyed from that plate truly was the broth they served in the bowl. It's the only thing that had actual flavor on my plate. The Korea ribs were a bit on the skinny and burnt side in the bottom pieces. Would I go again? Maybe, but just to try possibly their pho since their broth had a good flavor. Other than that I'll just drive a bit further out for Vietnamese/ Korean food ! Service itself wasn't that great either we weren't being taken care of as in getting refills or acknowledgement of when our food would be coming out. read more

The pad Thai was completely different than it was when the restaurant was located closer into the Bishop Arts District, and it was horrible! I was very disappointed because I used to love eating at Chan Thai. read more

The ambience was nice and comfortable with calm music and perfect temperature. They had a place that you could eat outside however we chose to eat inside. We ordered the spring rolls and those were OK. The sauce was underwhelming however we ordered the chicken sauté and that was really good. The peanut sauce was tasty. And then we ordered a dish with chicken and noodles and a ton of vegetables and I felt like those vegetables came straight from the farm. They were so fresh and they were cut to the perfect size and the dish was great. We asked for pretty spicy on a level from one to six. We asked for 3 1/2 and I would say for us. It was not even a bit spicy so that was the only disappointing part but we added some additional spice And it was really perfect. We had a bees knees drink, which was phenomenal and also a Thai iced tea. The price was less than $50 for all of that and I felt that it was very reasonable. The waitress was prompt and quick, so there were no problems There either. I would highly recommend to go to this place maybe add more flavor to your spring rolls or the sauce but otherwise I think it was really really a nice meal. read more

Chan Thai & Pho 88 - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We've been here twice in the last week for dinner, so it is quickly becoming our go-to spot in the area. We've enjoyed everything that we have ordered, but I will echo some of the other reviews that the service needs attention. The first time we went the service was excellent, but the second time it was lacking with long delays for drinks, odd spacing between delivery of appetizers, etc. We are likely to go again, but will hope for better service. The portions are generous and the outdoor seating is enjoyable for the time being. read more

The only spot in oak cliff for pho and Thai food. The Thai food is excellent great lunch specials !! I'm not a fan of their pho the broth is a little bland it's missing some flavor. I've had other menu items and delicious I would have rated 4 stars but service lacked NEEDS IMPROVEMENT Two waitresses working on a Wednesday lunch about 5 tables in at the moment . I can't recall her name because she didn't even introduce herself , she took about 10 min to come to table. Another table sat next to us , I'm assuming other section and they got their food fast and were gone before us. Future reference I'll probably do take out from now on I'll get better service doing take out then dining in. They Just need to work on hiring staff that provide great customer service and enjoy their job. read more

I really wanted to like this place. I love Thai food and I was excited to have a Thai restaurant in the neighborhood. The service wasn't great. We had appetizers on the table but no water or cutlery. I had to ask for silverware. I ordered curry. When the food came out, I also had to ask for chop sticks. The curry was a lot more watery that I'm used to. The food wasn't bad but the service and the thin curry is definitely not an experience I want to revisit. Also there were no Thai/ Asian people in the restaurant.... At all, not as a host/hostess, cook, waiter/waitress nothing. So.... I definitely question the authenticity of the recipes.... read more

Too hot to sit outside, we opted for the coolness of the bar. Great ambiance, Asian-Pacific Island vibe. Surprisingly intimate, delightfully engaging staff, and delicious food sealed the deal. We started with the fried calamari (best ever), my husband opted for the chicken mussaman and I chose the seafood tricked out salmon dish. Five stars, all around. Parking is in back. read more

My friend and I were craving some vietnamese food and found this place in the area. We were seated but were never greeted, eventually we had to flag someone down just to get waters and get our food order taken. After our food came out, no one came to check on us and we couldn't even find someone to get the bill. Eventually we just got up and had to ask to pay because we were in a rush. The food was mediocre but the service was terrible read more

Food was great and service was attentive! Delicious Thai Tea and Chicken Pad Thai. I would go again :)

Don't count on them for takeout orders. Here recently I've been placed on hold for extended periods of time just to place a takeout order. Stinks because I really liked this place but it's time to search for a new spot. read more

I was excited to try this place after a visit to the Dallas Zoo holiday lights event. It was busy when we walked in so the waitresses had us wait awkwardly at the door until a table opened up. The menu is large, full of Thai and Vietnamese options. My husband and I went with ice coffees and unfortunately, majorly disappointed. Nothing like tradition Viet or Thai coffees. The food took forever to come which wasn't fun with an 8yo especially when the majority of our order was pho and that's usually a quick meal anywhere else we go. Their pho condiments were not very fresh and they just give a small plate worth. And after all that wait, the flavor was just so-so. Almost sweet. Service was decent and the check was reasonably priced though! read more

Chan Thai & Pho 88 - P2. Filet Mignon and Meatball Pho 20. Pad Key Mow - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I would give this place 4 stars because I really like the Pho but the Pad Thai was so bad I can't justify it. It was so dry and lacking in the flavor you would expect. The noodles were dyed red from the sauce that seemed to soak into the noodle without adding any flavor. The Pho on that other hand isn't the best I've had in Dallas but it hits the spot whenever I'm looking for good food close to home. I've gotten take out both times and the wait wasn't too bad and the food traveled very well. read more

Great location, great patio, and great service but not-so-great food. I ordered beef banh mi, chicken pho, and filet mignon/meatball pho. The Banh mi was too chewy and the meat was tough. It was missing a lot of flavors like pickled daikon and carrots and pate. Filet mignon is usually served raw so it can be cooked in the broth. In my case, it was just over-cooked in the broth. Both portions of noodles were tiny, about the same size as child-size pho at other Vietnamese restaurants. Pho noodles are very cheap, it should be double what they're giving for what they're charging. read more

Amazing Thai Food This is my go to Thai place in Dallas. I love all their curry dishes and noodles. Also all of their appetisers are super yummy and you can make a meal out of just them! They have a cute little bar with a patio which is great to wait for your takeout. They have plenty of seating as well inside. The service is so friendly and you feel valued as a guest there. read more

Everything is so fresh and tasty. Portions are huge. We shared a chicken pad Thai and ordered their wonton soup. It was a huge bowl with a really flavorful broth. Plenty of wonderful tons too. We can't wait to return! read more

Well, I thought I'd give them one more chance after they moved to their new beautiful little building, but dang it, I still don't like the food at all. Today I picked up the Pad See Ew. It was edible, but that's all I can say positive about it. No depth of flavor, very boring. The real kicker was the Corn Patties appitizer. They were inedible! They were a gummy mess of deep fried corn starch with a few corn kernels in them, and I do mean a few! I basically threw everything out.. Do better, people! It's not that hard! read more

So I reviewed the Vietnamese side of the restaurant and I wasn't impressed and so I was hoping for better on the Thai side. Not impressed. The service was slow and the food even slower but all this would have and could have been excused if the food was good but it's not and it's utterly overpriced for the quality and quantity. Really really disappointed since I was looking forward to a good Asian place in the neighborhood. Just a mediocre Thai place with overpriced food. read more

I thought I'd give Chan Thai one more chance since they moved into their beautiful new building. However, in my opinion, the food is worse that ever. I ordered Pad See Ew, it was bland, no depth of flavor, boring as heck. The real "show stopper" was the Corn Patties. They were completely inedible. They were a deep fried gummy mess of corn starch with about three kernels of corn in each one. Do better people read more
