    A quaint little hole in the wall place with friendly service and tasty food. We didn't have to wait long for our order even though the dining area was busy and full. We ordered the chicken larb, crying tiger beef and tom kha soup with tofu, and also the stir fried glass noodles (no egg) with tofu and veggies for our vegan friend! Chicken larb was full of citrus and red onion and cilantro and not very spicy at all, which is not what I was expecting because larb is usually spicy, but it was still good. The crying tiger beef was pretty good, the sauce they served with it was heavy with the red pepper flakes and really tangy which was pretty good. The tom kha (coconut milk based soup) was creamy with coconut milk and overall a bit on the savory side. I didn't try the stir fried glass noodles but my friend ate the entire plate by himself so that must mean it was really good! Will return for sure next time I'm in the area to try out other items on the menu. A big thank you to the one man basically running the front by himself.

    Yellow curry with noodles
    Sam C.

    Haven't been in for a while, was driving by decided to swing back and check it out I had the yellow curry with noodles and a Diet Coke. The food was delicious, served fresh and plenty for the price you pay. They have lunchtime specials as well as dinner specials. Service was fast and efficient. There are not a lot of frills here, but the food is super delicious. They do a lot of takeout, I observed everyone in the restaurant working hard. In the way of ambience, they have a small place for seating. If my memory serves me correctly about six tables of four and two table tables for two. Tables can be slid together to accompany bigger groups.

    This business advertises a 10% discount for paying cash. Our bill came out to $117. We ordered 5 chicken pad Thai ($13.95 each), 3 Thai iced teas ($4.95), 1 Diet Coke ($3.95), a large rice ($7), and 3 side salads ($4.50). That should be about $110 before tax, or around $120 after tax--so with the 10% cash discount, I expected closer to $108. When I asked, the manager said the discount was already included, which didn't add up... Especially since he wouldn't have known we were paying cash. He also seemed a bit dismissive. It's not about the $10-$12, but about honoring advertised promotions.

    Everything I've tried here has been really good, but my favorites are the yellow curry and the spicy basil with mint leaves and bamboo shoots. I've been here multiple times, and the food is always consistently delicious. Highly recommend!

    Ordered UberEats since there is BOGO deal so it was $25 for 2 Pad Thai dishes. It got delivered pretty fast (45 min) and it was still hot! Pad Thai was underwhelming. The noodles were very sour and it didn't taste pan fried. The chicken seemed overcooked and quite bland. I was pretty disappointed since it was basically just a lot of bean sprouts, some crushed peanuts, and not much chicken and other ingredients. The order came with their menu and the prices seem reasonable since most items are $15-$20. They even have lunch special daily 11am-3pm. It comes with rice, salad, and egg roll. There are 10+ dishes to choose from so it seems like a good deal! Overall, I wasn't impressed with the Pad Thai but I might give them another try in the future because their lunch specials seem reasonable!

    They changed their name since my review but food is still the same under this management. And we always opt for the lunch special. You could not go wrong with their Pad Thai.

    Rotten potato in Yellow Curry
    Sos A.

    I've been a regular at Chili Thai Tango for a while now and honestly, I've always liked their food. That's why this experience was so disappointing. I ordered pad Thai and yellow curry through DoorDash like I normally do, but this time when I started eating the curry, I found a rotten potato in it. I called them and they said they'd replace it, which I appreciated at first. So I drove over to pick up the replacement. While I was there, I politely asked if they could offer something small as an apology for the inconvenience. Nothing crazy... even a Thai tea or a simple dessert would've been fine. Instead, the owner offered me a punch card where I'd have to order 10 times to get $10 off. That didn't really sit right with me since I was dealing with an issue right now. I mentioned that and asked if there was anything immediate they could do, and he responded by saying they were already doing me a favor by replacing the curry. That response was honestly the worst part. Replacing a dish that had rotten food in it shouldn't be considered a "favor," it's the bare minimum. I had already paid a delivery fee to get the food brought to me, and still ended up having to drive there myself to fix the issue. Super disappointing experience, especially as someone who's supported them multiple times before. Probably won't be coming back after this.

    Lunch special

    Service was quick. Food pretty tasty so far. Id consider coming back for more. Its Memorial day and they are open until 830 pm. Nice to grab some good grun on a holiday. Cheers!

    9/10/25 -- it would be nice to have the check be in English with actual prices listed, so non-Thai customers can read it

    My mom and I dined here during lunch special on 9/9/25. We ordered 2 pad thai lunch specials, a tom yum chicken soup, and 2 ice teas. The food was tasty, and service was friendly. The total was $50.00, and we left $9 tip. That's 18% of the total. So, we decided to come back a second time today, 9/10/25 at 11 AM and this time, we did not order lunch specials. Instead, we ordered the pepper beef steak, spicy basil eggplant, and the spicy basil fried rice. I also ordered a Thai iced coffee to go. Our total came out to $55.03. We paid cash today. When we were presented with the check, we were also given a stamp card with three $1 circles stamped off. Interestingly, yesterday, a stamp card was not given to us, so when I asked about possibly adding yesterday's order/bill to obtain 2 additional stamps, including SHOWING our server our receipt from yesterday's visit, the server refused. He said we have to come back and ask for the lady, who I am assuming is the same lady we met yesterday who may be the owner of the restaurant. He said he could not give us extra stamps. He never said why. Despite showing our receipt as PROOF of purchase, and mind you, the lunch specials are $12.95, which qualify for the $10 minimum stamp card, he did not want to help us. This made absolutely no sense. WHO then gave us the 3 stamps we acquired today, if not him? Would it have been so hard for him to add an additional 2 stamps with proof of receipt from YESTERDAY'S lunch order?! It's not like we were asking for free stamps! Lastly, this male server who wore a pink face mask today (the 11 AM shift on 9/10/25) needs to learn better customer service. He was flat out cold, never smiled, never asked how anything was, or if we needed anything else. Thai people are from the "Land of Smiles." We have traveled to Thailand many times and have always encountered friendly people. This server should NOT be dealing with customers if he lacks customer service skills. He spoke English just fine, by the way. He should NOT have asked us to come back for stamps if he could have simply just awarded us stamps himself. Or don't give out a stamp card period if you will not honor stamps from meals worthy of them. This is poor customer service, which left a sour taste in our mouth. Place is casual. Ample free parking in a small shopping lot.

    Tofu Pad Thai
    Kristine L.

    Came here with some girlfriends as it's very close to where one lives. It's in a small strip mall so there's some parking but a little limited esp if busy. Between the 3 of us we shared a tofu pad Thai, pork panang curry, chicken pineapple fried rice, and chicken drunken noodle. The food was pretty mediocre in my opinion. The pineapple fried rice was not seasoned well and skimped on the meat. Pad Thai was just ok, not great and not bad. Panang curry was all right too. I also didn't like that they charged an extra $3 for beef which is why we mainly went chicken and tofu. But I prefer drunken noodle with beef so it was just ok with chicken. Portions are pretty paltry for the price point esp for a place that's not exactly in a premium location. It's a clean spot but I could see why it was empty when we went on a Friday at like 630pm. We also ordered a mango sticky rice and while the mango was nice and ripe there was not enough condensed milk or sauce on the rice. While service was pretty good, the food is way too mediocre for me to want to come again.

    Lunch specials from 11am-3pm

    They have a great stamp card rewards system. 10 stamps, $10 off your next visit. I have never been disappointed here. I usually come during lunch time to get the lunch special combination. Comes w/ entree, salad, rice, and egg roll.

    Is your meat and chicken are Halal?

    Does the pad thai come without the fish/oyster sauce?

    No sauce on the side.

    Any outdoor seating?

    No outdoor seating, but inside is very clean and cozy, and the door is open so it's not stuffy at all. You'll enjoy it

We got southern curry noodles, flaming drunken noodle at extra spicy, and Che Po. The curry noodles were good we got the flat noodles. Though my wife likes it more savory I like it more coconutty. The che po was okay, the rice was steeped in the sauce which was too much for my wife and some of the pork belly pieces were tough. The bbq pork and the duck was good though. Authentic Thai and Chinese fusion taste. The star of the show was the flaming drunken noodle. It's probably one of the best drunken noodles we've had. At extra spicy, it definitely brought the flame and the foavor in a big way. The portions and prices were great. We had to togo the drunken noodle and it got even better after we reheated it. -service was very friendly and quick -the restaurant is a good size, great for large parties. Negatives: None 5/5 overall We will definitely be back, we already have our eye on trying the pad Thai and the tom yum noodles. My wife wants to bring the spice down, but i want the smoke I want that extra spicy level again lol

The pad thai was on the sweeter side. I got my order with pork as the protein choice. I felt if a lime was provided, it would help balance out the flavors of the noodles. The peanut was kept in a separate container, which I appreciated. The platter consists of a variety of items from dumplings, egg rolls, cream cheese wonton, wonton, and shrimp tempura. The container had holes to allow for the steam to escape, so most of the items were still crispy. Nothing from the platter particularly stands out in taste, besides possibly cream cheese wonton. Overall, it felt like an okay option if you're in the area.

It was only after reviewing the receipt that I discovered a 15% gratuity had already been added automatically. For a dining experience that involved little more than food delivery to the table, I do not believe an automatic 15% gratuity is justified. More importantly, it was not clearly disclosed beforehand. Charging a mandatory 15% gratuity for a party of only three people feels more like a hidden fee than a fair charge based on the actual level of service provided.
