    We're sharing Pad Thai and Pad Woonsen.

    Krua Thai is the best Thai restaurant in town, and my favorite. The food is consistently delicious, and there is quite a variety to choose from. We have been friends with the owner, Lak, for years, and she is a wonderful person. The dining room is very small, so it can be hard to get a table. She doesn't accept any groups over 8. Be aware that Thai food can't be very spicy when ordered that way. I used to order 4 star, the spiciest. And it was hot! Now I order 1 star. My stomach just can't handle it anymore. And you can't return any food that you order too spicy. You ordered it, it's yours! Again, the food is delicious, and well worth a visit by you!

    Thai Fried Rice

    I'll start by saying the food was "edible" I have definitely had worse. My order: Chicken pad thai Thai fried rice w. Chicken I ordered my food in there "hottest flavor level 4 thai hot" I asked for double that because I really enjoy spicy food. Like really spicy. It was spicy but not what I was hoping for. The food was very bland in flavor compared to other restaurants of the same genre. I didn't even finish the fried rice. (Took 3 bites and did not continue) the rice and pad thai both had this bland taste that I just couldn't shake. Service in general seemed to be fine other than the abnormally long wait for a takeout order. My order took quite awhile to be completed about 40-45 minutes and I called in 30 minutes ahead of my time of arrival to the restaurant. The restaurant was not super busy. As for the atmosphere they had several off putting (almost rude) messages and signs all over the walls basically stating on one almost word for word "if you don't like the rules here then leave" So you could do worse eating here but I promise you could absolutely do better.

    Multiple people recommended Krua Thai in Abilene and I can sure see why! One of them mentioned to grab it to go and I certainly didn't understand this was a thing. There are only about 4 to 5 tables inside, and the staff will not move them together to accommodate larger parties. Your whole party must be present to be seated but you can tell they certainly prefer you to take your food to go. Regardless, we had seven of us who chose to be seated. You can definitely tell they are authentically Thai based on this level or lack thereof service. I love that the bottom of every page in the menu states "food cannot be returned if too spicy". We ordered a little bit of everything- fried spring rolls, fried shrimp rolls, fried tofu, pad see ew, pad, Thai, panang curry, and Thai basil. Everything was incredibly delicious and this is one of the best Thai food restaurants I've had in all of Texas. Their Thai tea is one of the best quality teas I've had the pleasure of drinking, although it wasn't as sweet as I would prefer. I would definitely chuckle given a Thai iced tea is 2.99 while a Thai tea with no ice is 4.99. We got everything with mild spice as we were certainly scared off between the signs around the restaurant and in the menu. It was the perfect spice for me as someone who enjoys a tiny kick. When you are finished, you pay at the front and they do not take any type of tap payments. I will definitely be back every time I pass through Abilene! Although I'll likely take it to go next time!

    I always come to Kris Thai I found this gem a while back and I'm so happy that it's still around the food is amazing and I've never had an issue with an order! Great little hole in the wall and the service is always friendly being it is family owned.

    A wonderful taste of another place in the world. The food is delicious and helps me feel less trapped in west Texas.

    Wasn't really sure what to expect pulling into this place, but my coworkers and I were pleasantly…read moresurprised. The interior far exceeds the exterior. Luckily, we wondered in on their discounted sushi day (Wednesday). I ordered a few rolls off of the special menu and the yellow curry with chicken and steamed rice. The curry was excellent to the last drop and the rolls were good too. My coworkers ordered the Pad Thai and General Tsos chicken along with various sushi items. They both had good things to say as well. The servers/staff were all very welcoming and attentive. Towards the end their credit card readers went down and they were dealing with trying to make sure everyone was able to pay. It seemed like a very stressful situation, but the staff was being clear while handling it and doing their best so the customers could get going. It was a good experience all in all.

    The food was absolutely delicious. The gyoza was cooked perfectly, and the ramen wasn't salty at…read moreall, some places make it too salty but this one is perfect. The service was great and everyone was super attentive and very helpful, always asking if we needed anything. The restaurant wasn't too loud, pretty manageable and it was nice, but too bright but not too low with the lighting. Definitely looking forward to going back
