    Drunken noodles with chicken
    Stephanie S.

    Great little hidden gem off the road to Bastrop / Austin airport. Drunken noodles was bursting with flavor, chicken, and vegetables. They didn't hold back. It was definitely spicy, so if you don't like spice, go with mild. Lots of tasty sauce, so our to-go order was not dry at all, even after 30 minutes in the car to home. Would love to try their other dishes!

    Pad Thai

    Charming, traditional Thai where you're served like family from an unexpected little red house filled with warm wood furniture and retro music. Their famed Pad Thai is an archetype - tiny glass noodles with crunchy sprouts and green onion (for real Texans: Thai spicy is the way!!), mine with 6 perfectly cooked shrimp and a sprinkle of peanuts. Austinites be advised - it's worth a quick drive!

    Fried shrimp

    Stopped into Little Thailand last night for dinner and grabbed some fried tempura shrimp, the Pad Kra Prow and the Yellow Curry. I was tempted to get the Pad Thai (the menu is covered in photos of each dish) but I decided on the Yellow Curry - which, thank goodness I did because it was AWESOME! Exactly what I wanted. Spice, flavor, aroma, all 10s. (Would recommend the shrimp if you want a protein as the chicken is little dry) My husband also enjoyed his Pad Kra Prow. While we eating, we were already planning out what we'll have when we return.

    Little Thailand is sort of tucked away off a frontage road adjacent to the freeway. It's not huge and lives up to the "little" aspect of its name; dirt lot, unassuming. It's small inside but it has a cozy vibe to it. Oddly low ceilings though but hey, whatevs. Service was super friendly and accommodating and we got sat pretty quickly. I got the vibe that this is more of a takeout place than a dine-in. They had several orders bagged and ready to go and a seemingly endless stream of people coming in to claim their brown bagged bounties of deliciousness. I had the crab fried rice and it was a good decision. TONS of food and could have easily been shared. They really hooked it up with the crab and it was all cooked to perfection and not overly greasy. Good stuff!

    When a restaurant serves Boat Noodles, a Thai food lover should take note. Why? There are several reasons. First, making Boat Noodles is a project. Putting it on the menu is a commitment. Second, it's not the kind of dish that has mass appeal in the US. Pork blood is its most important ingredient, FFS! So if it is in constant rotation on the menu, it's a sign that the restaurant isn't into the "dumbing down" thing. And third...if you ask Thai people what's their favorite dish, many will say "Boat Noodles." So this is a dish that you and I should WANT to eat. Little Thailand serves Boat Noodles. 'Nuff said! What are Boat Noodles? Sounds like a nautical dish full of seafood. It's not. Let me quote the description on Little Thailand's menu: "A classic Thai style rice noodle dish packed with sliced beef, meat balls, pork blood and cilantro in a dark soy sauce pork broth served with bean sprouts, basil leaves and crispy pork rinds on the side." In short, it's noodles...served in an intensely flavorful broth...enriched with pork blood. But don't let pork blood scare you. You'd never know that it's in there, but you would know if it wasn't--if you catch my drift. Pork blood is the X-factor that elevates the dish to next level. Little Thailand's Boat Noodles are fabulous. The broth is an explosion of tart, spicy, rich (hello pork blood!), umami flavors firing at your tongue from every conceivable direction. They give you a choice of proteins. I chose pork, and the quantity was quite generous. They give you a choice of spiciness. There are four level of spiciness, ranging from mild to "Thai Spicy." I opted for level 3 (aka, "Spicy"), and it had enough kick to make my nose run...but not so much that I was convulsing with flop sweats. "Spicy" was nicey. And I ate every single noodle, every slice of pork, every bean sprout, every leaf of basil, and drank every drop of that glorious broth. It took all the discipline I could muster not to tongue-bathe the interior of the bowl. Suffice it to say, I loved Loved LOVED it. The building itself is clean, intimate, and spare. It's a small, simple dining room that (to me, at least) felt rustic in a Wisconsin supper club kind of way. The facade is hard to miss, with its red and gold pagoda motif. Little Thailand is located south of Austin. It's a bit out in the boonies, yet is a quick, easy, uncongested 20 minute drive from east Austin. And it has its own parking lot. Yay! I consider its quasi-remote location a plus, because there are few things I dislike more than city congestion and parking. Service was friendly, efficient, and professional. Prices are reasonable. This was my first trip to Little Thailand, and I intend to go back again and again to eat my way through its menu. And, of course, to have more Boat Noodles. A lot more Boat Noodles. Great food, great service, relaxed location. Little Thailand is a jewel and a keeper.

    Pork Larb to go. So yum!!

    Ask the Community - Little Thailand

    Do they have outdoor seating?

    There are a half dozen picnic tables on the side of the restaurant. It's close to the road, but there are lots of plants and outdoor lighting, so it's not a bad space for picnic tables.

    Did the bar reopen - and still serving the Thai Bloody Mary?

    No,they just open for Thai foods only for now but they said they working on get the bar up and running again.

Pad see ew with chicken - I liked their version and would probably get it again. Pad woon sen with pork - typically my favorite noodle dish and I think they did a good job. Garden roll - good but not as packed as others I've had, and at a higher price point. Pineapple fried rice with pork - I liked this but was a bit on the oily side. Tom kha soup - I thought this was very good and had a decent amount of chicken and mushrooms Overall I liked everything but some items I felt I had better versions of elsewhere. It's also on the pricier side. Still, if in central Austin I think it's a solid choice for Thai food.
