Green curry
Loretta H.

Had a wonderful experience with my friends at Dok Khao in Woodbridge. This was my first time at this restaurant and I am absolutely looking forward to going back. There were about seven of us. Service was great and the food was so very good. We ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees and everything was delicious Everyone was very happy with everything. I also loved the floral decor. Looking forward to going back!!

Thai Coffee

Valentine's week they played the rice in heart shape!!! So cute and an intentional touch to my curry.

Dok Khao Pad Thai
Denise M.

We hosted our Bookclub here and it was a great hit. The food was amazing and they were able to accommodate our group of 10 even though they don't offer reservations on a Saturday. The place is super adorable and their drinks were also amazing. The place offers a very nice atmosphere without it being overwhelming with noise. The server was great and was able to handle our big group with no problems at all. Did I mention the food is delicious? Will definitely be back for a date night.

Crab Rangoon
Danielle H.

Always great food and great service. My favorite appetizer to order is the fried calamari. There hasn't been an entree I ordered I haven't like. The best Thai food in the Woodbridge area.

Restaurant seating
Courtney A.

Ventured out to Dok Khao and decided to dine in for the first time, even though I've ordered from here several times before. The space was really cute! It's thoughtfully designed to seat a good number of people despite being on the smaller side. I loved the vibrant colors and floral décor -- it gives the whole place a fun, cute vibe. I ordered the Pad See Ew, and it was my first time trying it here -- it was great! The noodles had the perfect texture and were cooked just right. I also ordered the calamari and the duck roll. Calamari is usually a go-to for me, and I tend to order it anywhere I see it on the menu, but I was highly disappointed by Dok Khao's. It was overly greasy and lacked flavor, so I definitely wouldn't recommend it. The duck roll was also underwhelming -- overly crispy and crumbly, to the point where it fell apart and was just too much to comfortably eat.

Interior
Cassandra T.

Very good vibe and service. Food was fast. Decor fun and funky THAI COFFEE MILLE FEUILLE - dessert - thought it was dry and the buttercream overly dense. A little bitter (I didn't mind that). Flavor wasn't bad just not my cup of tea and wouldn't get again. But fun to try. They give a steak knife to cut it. Garlic lovers chicken was delicious and I'll definitely order again. Steamy hot and plentiful. Lots of yummy garlic flavor. Goyza dumpling is a definite order as well. Will go again!

Kids Chicken Fried Rice
Lauren C.

My friend and I visited Dok Khao in January and I am still thinking of it to this day when I think of Thai food. Absolutely DELICIOUS! The atmosphere was very nice and the ambiance was very mellow. Service was incredibly quick and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. I ordered the street noodles and the kids chicken fried rice because I couldn't choose between the two. I am very glad I ordered both and had enough to take home for lunch the next day. The Crab Rangoon were also delicious and a great dish to share. I will be back soon for another round of Thai food!

Lamb curry noodles
Sophie A.

Everything was delicious!! I would go back again and recommend it to anyone. The Lamb curry noodles was creamy and filling and full of flavorful. It's become a favorite meal of mine now. I had the bubble tea mousse cake which was so good. I also had a strawberry lemonade. Probably one of the best places to dine at. It's always busy so I would make a reservation. Our waiter was great and on point even though it was busy.

Ube Latte -- naturally caffeine free
Gail B.

Bartender Bee made me my first-ever Iced Ube Latte. Ube is a purple yam, whose flavor Google AI describes as a combination of vanilla, pistachio and a hint of coconut. It was so good that I ordered one more. The drink was caffeine free--no espresso. I also had the Mango Sweet Sticky Rice. The mango was fresh and thinly sliced, and the sweet sticky rice was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Bee was friendly and attentive. He made my experience exceptional.

Healthy Rolls
Alicia E.

Ambiance 10/10, service 7/10, food 8/10 When you fist walk in it's like your transported into a different world... mystical, earthy... drinks were refreshing... appetizers we enjoyed the crispy spring rolls were delicious and the healthy spring rolls were just refreshing. Entrees my sister really liked a chicken dish they serves totally forgot what it was called lol... I had the pad kapow... not spicy at all BUT they gave an array of condiments which spiced it up for me lol... drinks I had the Cheshire Cat which was ABSOLUTELY delicious and my sister had the Singapore sling... now it wasssss a lil pricey so I would suggest happy hour BUT we enjoyed it non the less and WILL be back lol... side note I did feel we felt reissued by our server even though it wasn't busy non the less it shouldn't be that way even if it wwaasss busy

Pad Thai
Hailey L.

Terrible terrible terrible food! DON'T BE DECEIVED BY THEIR DECOR! It's the moment when you should not judge by its cover. If you are from heart of NOVA, it will disappoint you miserably!!!! I had Pad Thai and Sakura noodle on seasonal menu that said recommended by Chef a day before Mother's Day. First of all, when we got our food, our food DID NOT look like one on the menu. We ordered food based on the picture on the menu which looked like it had a lot of veggies on top, but what we got was just a lump of noodles LITERALLY. It looked sooo different from photo that we initially thought we got wrong food and I had to ask server. It was ridiculous because even the server said the food had all the ingredients that said on the menu but couldn't say it looked like the photo they had on the menu. Honestly, IT IS A SCAM IF YOU PUT PHOTO ON THE MENU AND YOUR FOOD DOESN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE IT!!! I attached photo for anyone who is curious what I meant by a lump of noodles. Also even Pad Thai, which is a basic in Thai cuisine, seems to miss a lot of ingredients that supposed to go in. It looked like someone who doesn't even know Thai cuisine tried to just replicate the dish by the name of food. Noodles were sooo overcooked for both that I felt like they served food that they wanted to throw away from miscooking. We were so upset and food was so terrible that we left both plates nearly more than half left. I didn't even want them for to go or taste them after that moment. Service was terrible as well. Our server didn't show up after taking our order until we were ready to head out. I wanted to get limes for Pad Thai because it was missing (like wth?) and asked about food we got but she just disappeared until much later. Food came out terribly late. I WOULD NEVER RETURN OR RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE!!!!

Green chicken Green Curry
Ivan Q.

In town for business and stopped by the best Thai restaurant in the area. Enjoyed some delicious wonton soup on a cold day. For my entree, I chose the green chicken curry. Everything was very good. I can't wait to sit in again.

Beef Pad Ka Pow
Sami D.

Food was great. If you like spicy, the beef pad kapow is a must! The menu says the Bangkok wings are spicy, but they are mild at best, more of a sweet and spicy. The Pad Thai was good and filling. Unfortunately the service was not the best, server did not care to refill our waters. She didn't seem like she even wanted to be there which is fine, but giving good customer service still has to be a priority. Wasn't busy she may have only had 2 tables.

Perhaps the best Thai restaurant in the DMV. Certainly, it has the best Pad Ka Prow in the area! Everything is fresh and flavorful.

Ask the Community - Dok Khao

How do I make reservations on the weekend?

It doesn't appear that you can make a reservation with them online, so I would suggest calling them. Hope you enjoy!

Do they still have a special in dining set lunch menu?

No the menu is full menu

When will they start serving on real plates and cups?

Good question! I don't know the answer to it, but it can't be soon enough! There's really no reason for serving in/on "take-out" containers and paper plates, since they're a brick & mortar place and should have a dishwasher.

Are they sanitizing the area?

I visited a couple times last week and found that they were following the Governor's Executive order to the letter. PPE, Sanitation practices, disposable containers/dishes/flatware, menus via QR code etc. The lobby area is set up for carry out… 

Are they open for outdoor dining?

Yes we do outdoor dining? I can reserve the table for you if you want. Thank you

Do they have gluten-free options?

Yes, they do and it still tastes great.

Do they deliver?

Yes!

Do they sell alcohol?

There's a sign outside the door saying that they're waiting on their license and stuff but they will eventually have alcohol once that clears.

Don’t See Your Question? Ask Away!

They made it exactly how I wanted it, super spicy and full of flavor. I also noticed the portion size was bigger, and the bowl felt way more packed compared to what I usually get at the Dumfries location. The staff were all so kind and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was beautiful with such a nice atmosphere. The food also came out really fast, which I appreciated. Everything tasted fresh, hot, and flavorful. This will definitely be my go-to location from now on. I'll absolutely be coming back to try more items on the menu. Highly recommend if you're craving good food!

KaPow chicken, green curry and Yakasoba noodles all very very good. Collect herself the spiciness can rain from none to mild to medium to hot. I played it safe I go with medium and it didn't have enough zip for me. So if you like spicy be sure to ask for hot or extra hot. Prices are very fair and the portions are large. The only complaint I have is that we were there on a cold night and there's nothing between the front door and the tables someone comes in there's a blast of cold air. Maybe some sort of a screen or something to break the wind would be helpful. I would definitely go back. I just wish I lived closer to it
