    I had a fantastic experience here. I have my favorite Thai spot and am often reluctant to try new ones because I'm disappointed. Not this time! I went here with a couple friends and we shared the spicy edamame as well as the pot stickers, both of which were tasty. Then I had the duck red curry which was absolutely fantastic. The duck was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the curry was phenomenal. Our waiter was friendly and helpful and the restaurant itself is very cute inside. I cannot wait to come back here for another meal!

    Go to Flamin Thai ASAP :) My friend and I went for dinner and WOW it was soooo good. Every dish was stunning and delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and patient during a very busy night. Be prepared to leave with a full belly of flavorful food. I will definitely be back for the curry and drunken noodles!

    23. Pad See Ew

    Stopped in for dinner. Friendly server helped us out with the menu. I decided on the beef pad see ew. Came out hot and ready. Noodles were wide and chewy. Chinese broccoli was plentiful with big pieces. Sauce was light

    I seriously think about this Thai basil fried rice, so often! Hands-down, one of the best Thai food restaurants that we have in Minneapolis. Their food selection is top-notch and their quality is even better. We had sushi, and some traditional Thai dishes. I would say the curry and the Thai basil fried rice was by far my favorite. Just a heads up, we went on a Friday around dinner time and it was super busy. So plan ahead as their space is small for sit down. I have gotten their food to go before and it is a great option as well. Their service was super quick for how busy they were and I was very impressed.

    Thai food is my favorite and some friends told me to try this spot. Went here for date night, didnt make reservations cause it was last minute but we still got in. First I want to say this whole area is terrible for parking and there is a lot to park in right next door but it's about $10 for an hour. We walked in and weren't really greeted for maybe 5 minutes. I'm not sure if they were understaffed but it wasnt crazy busy. Sat down and the bartender was the waitress. She was super friendly and excited to have us. Really explained a lot of the menu and had suggestions. We ordered some food and drinks. My drink was pretty good. I enjoyed the wings, good sauce and crispy. Kapoon was really good, my date had never had it before and she liked it. I didnt really like the rice cause it lacked flavor for me. The sushi was pretty good also. At times it just felt like the service was slow. Also when getting everything to go, I guess I would have assumed they would box it up for me with their prices and also the fact that I'm trying to box up a soup. Not a terrible experience, just not one of my favorites. Other things on the menu sparked my interest but not sure if its enough for me to go back.

    Rainbow medley with shrimp
    Zain K.

    As my first photos shows, this is a pleasant, modern space. That, along with the extensive menu and friendly service, promised much, but my meal was ultimately quite disappointing. I got the mixed veg stir-fry (Rainbow Medley) with shrimp. It was nicely plated, but two issues I had with it are evident from my photo: first, it was rather oily. And second, the veg mix was off, with way too many green peppers and onions (it's natural to suspect a cost motive here). What's less clear from the photo was that the vegetables were all overcooked, with the broccoli and mushrooms having been reduced to mush. Others seem to have had better experiences here, so I would be curious to try something different.

    Red Curry with chicken
    Laura S.

    We went at 6 pm on a Wednesday. We were sat right away and there were plenty of open tables. Food 4/5. The spring rolls were fresh and were well balanced by the sauce included. I got the red curry which had amazing flavor. I got medium spice and felt this balanced the dish perfectly. My only complaint was the bamboo. It was cut in long pieces almost like noodles, and was very challenging to eat with the included spoon. Service 4/5: we were sat right away and our order was put in quickly. Our spring rolls and main entrees also came in a timely fashion. We did wait awhile for someone to check back in on us to get our checks and to go boxes. Ambiance 5/5: they have a cute selfie wall in the back. Overall the restaurant was clean and tidy. We had sufficient space at our tables and loved the view from the window. If you're in the neighborhood and are looking for Thai food, this is definitely a must try!!

    We visited Saturday evening, we utilized paid street parking and we were seated right away. The restaurant wasn't busy. Khloe was a good server, checking in with us and giving us updates on our food while we waited. We started off with the baked mussels, they were so delicious I really enjoyed the sauces on top. The lychee connection was dangerously good, with the right balance of sweetness and alcohol. I really did not like the wait In between getting our drinks, our appetizer or our entree which was about 10-20 mins. My husband got his food before I got my sushi another ten minutes later. However, although our wait times were significant because the sushi chefs were behind the food was delicious. The sushi and sashimi combo comes with a great variety of fresh fish. Some even had a little wasabi underneath. The pepper steak also had the right amount of spice and sweetness. I would recommend visiting here but heads up you may wait awhile.

    Pad Thai - Chicken
    Nicole T.

    Met my family here for dinner. The restaurant is decorated very cute. The servers were very helpful getting our order in and even provided suggestions based on what we told them we liked. The food we ordered all had great flavor. The prices were a little on the spendy side but I imagine their rent for this area is not cheap. We would definitely come back.

    Sushi rolls
    Kavitha P.

    Came here for lunch and used a BOgO deal for the sushi rolls Sushi was great, chef was nice who makes them The red snapper curry tasted good but was difficult to eat as whole fish and bones and we were not given actual sized plates to eat them on or discard of the bones until we kept asking for plates The cashew stir fry with pork lacked some flavor in my opinion and not like the typical stir fry I'm used to Also none of our dishes came out with the beautiful hibiscus flowers that I see all over social media and other patrons dishes had them so I'm sure they just forgot ? Would try some other dishes if in the area again and hope it's an improvement since I hear great things about them

    Looks good. But not worth $20. Taste was really bad. Like fried rice with lemon.

    Everything was good except nam khao tod. It was trash. No crunch. Huge ass green onions. No red chilies. Too sour. No curry taste. No mint. Sushi, eggrolls, and edamame were

    Stopped in for an early dinner and was immediately seated. Staff was friendly and inquired about our knowledge of Thai food and Laotian, offering guidance. We immediately ordered spring rolls and their sweet green curry with medium spice as well as the red at Thai delight curry also, medium spice. Both came out with a healthy serving of rice and steaming bowls of curry filled with vegetables. *Tip* You could easily share these dishes if you aren't looking to take anything home as we each had about half of our meals to take home. We loved the creamy flavor, filled broth- No notes, these were so delicious. Also, the environment is super cute with a photo like wall, where you could take pictures. They really produced a vibey restaurant that fits with the diversity of University Ave.

    Minnesotans be warned: they mean their spice levels. I can usually handle a little spicier than average, but not here. I ordered a medium red curry with chicken and it was delicious, but my nose was running like crazy. Next time I will try mild/medium. My partner ordered hot drunken noodles, and also said it was spicy (I did not dare to try it). We also got the fried eggrolls which were very yummy The ambiance is nice, and they have tables that can fit large groups. There was a wait when we went in on a Friday, though there was space at the bar. We had an issue with ordering, however. We ordered online for pickup, only to arrive after our scheduled time and find out that our order had not gone through. The staff all seemed very confused, and were not super friendly about it, and then had to rush to put the order through while I stood there waiting. So that was a snafu and not a great experience, but I would try again to see if it's a pattern or a one-off. 4 stars for this reason, but I would go back.

There are booths and open tables, the place is clean, updated decor and has those flappy doors that lead into the kitchen. There's always a bunch of bags waiting for pickup for takeout orders, so there lots of activity near the kitchen -so ask for a seat somewhere away from the kitchen if you're wanting a more private/quiet area. The appetizers are scrumptious! Be sure to try the crispy beef (and try not to fight over the sticky rice balls)!! All main dishes that I've tried are good in presentation, flavor, and texture. You'll be happy with anything you order -and they're sensitive to Minnesotan tolerance of spicy foods, so most meals are made without the typical spice levels -unless you ask for it. I recommend getting your spices on the side instead of ordering with a specific spice "level". It's located in a strip mall that has a tattoo artist shop, world class donut shop (Funner Bros) and a liquor store -so around dinner time the parking lot gets pretty busy -so drive slowly!

I recently moved from the Bay Area so had a lot of thai, laotian and cambodian food there. I'll try to break down the dishes itself. Duck fried rice: probably my favorite out of the entrees, very flavorful but too salty. It's stronger in flavor but the salt was a bit too much. Laksa: oh man I really wanted to like this one but it's missing the ooomph like someone skipped out on all the fish sauce and strong flavors that make laksa unique. Massaman curry: the beef was try and tough and didn't have much in it overall. If you know massaman you know a big part of it are the potatoes, but there's barely any. Mango salmon: it just tasted like a pan fried salmon, nothing too crazy Overall, it feels like I went somewhere that tried to imitate Laotian flavors. And for the price I likely wouldn't go again. But I will say, the service A+, all the staff were very nice and helpful. Also the vibes are amazing very cute decor. I wish the food matched everything else.
