I never would have expected to eat some of the best, most authentic Thai food I've ever had in Jefferson! O's Thai is a super hole-in-the-wall spot. The menu changes weekly, and you can see the most up-to-date menu on their FaceBook page. I got the Khao Soi, which was a very creamy, curry noodle soup. I loved the tender chicken, richness of the soup, texture of the egg noodles, and tartness from the pickled veggies. To drink, I got the Rose Thai Tea with boba; I usually love rose flavor but this had bit too much for me so I wish it was more milky to balance. Ambiance is nice, there's only outdoor seating. Service was so friendly, it made a great impression. Parking is free in downtown Jefferson. 9/10 would recommend! read more

Oh my goodness. Talk about fresh Thai food. This is some of the best Thai I have had. She travels two hours to Greensboro to get her authentic spice ingredients and it to DIE for. Absolutely stop here to have some lunch. Plus O (that is her name) is super sweet. Incredible food. read more

Amazing authentic Thai food that my girlfriend and I found after hiking Mount Jefferson. The Chicken Satay and Durian dessert were absolutely delicious. The Thai iced tea was also a 10/10. Be mindful that the place is outdoors and has limited seating but it was amazing nonetheless. read more

Visiting from out of town and found this hidden gem in downtown West Jefferson. It was a perfect selection from a select menu..... Pho, Panang w/chicken and Chicken Satay. My parents had never tried Thai food before, but they live here and both said they would come back. Zero spice for the PHo and Satay (perfect for first timers) the Panang was maybe a level one, but my dad finished the serving. Trust me when I say this was a great meal at a great price here in the mountains of North Carolina. MIss O was great as a cook, and so friendly! Thank you Miss O, you have new customers with my family read more

i have went here so many times and every time it's delicious i tried her new boba and it was beyond amazing her stinky rice pudding will never disappoint and her chicken satay is one the best foods i have ever had not to mention the service is amazing i recommend to everyone read more

Some of best authentic Thai food I've ever had, and it was $12 and in the middle of nowhere North Carolina. My daughters curry was a little too spicy and cook gladly added a great deal more coconut milk to tame it -- great service and quality for s tiny food stand . In the off chance you are in this small town off the blue ridge parkway and you enjoy Thai food beyond Pad Thai, eat here. read more

Beautiful spot on the quiet backside of West Jefferson. Gorgeous outdoor seating under lovely trees. The chicken satay was yummy drenched in almond sauce and shared with cucumber relish. Would definitely recommend this small business! read more

We love the food here soooooo much! My husband found this place on Facebook and took me here. We drove 30 minutes from Boone to get here and it's definitely worth it! Everything is top notch. We really enjoyed talking to O the chef and her husband too! They are so friendly and attentive Thanks for the good experience! read more

Cute little walk up Thai place with limited outdoor seating. Many folks took their food to go. My friend and I both had the beef meatball soup with rice noodles, julienne carrots, sliced red cabbage, celery, green onion, cilantro and plenty of yummy broth. The meatballs were delicious and so was the rest! We also had the thai tea...I had mine with cream and it was also delicious. If you want some heat for your meal you can get a little cup of chili oil. The service from the owner and her help was friendly and top notch. Loved it! Yummy!!! read more

The food was incredible. The soup warmed me up in a cool evening. The magical lemonade was especially delicious and fun! We highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Excellent Thai flavor in the heart of downtown West Jeff! The place is pretty new, and we were thrilled to find it on our most recent trip to Ashe County. They have 3 or 4 different daily dishes to choose from, and the prices are phenomenal. I fed our little family of three for less than $40. As for the food, it was terrific! I had the Larb beef salad, which I've never seen before (I usually order larb chicken). It was super flavorful and perfectly spiced. We also ordered the meatball soup and the Massaman Curry. The mango and sticky rice was a great treat as well. The owners were friendly and answered all of our questions. I can't recommend O's highly enough if you find yourself in the High Country! read more

Went to pick up some food for another office and was given a sample of a dish to try. Absolutely delicious and super sweet people! I can't wait to visit again and get a full meal. I 100% recommend visiting! read more

Authentic Thai food and excellent customer service. Fresh organic vegetables. We enjoyed our experience here. There's outside seating.

This spot came highly recommended by my cousin so we had to check it out. My husband LOVES Thai food, but I'm not a huge fan. THE FOOD HERE WAS SO GOOD WE ORDERED MORE TO-GO WHEN WE FINISHED OUR MEALS! The flavors were amazing and authentic. The owners came out to chat with us and make sure our food was ok. They are the sweetest people who genuinely care that they are providing good food and service. Even if you don't typically eat Thai, it's worth a stop here to give it a try. I promise it will not disappoint! read more

Fantastic place for authentic Thai. Green Curry was delicious. Great job O! Will be coming back. Sat outside which was nice and perfect for take home. read more

Absolutely loved her Panang Curry and Laab salad. O's is a must if you're in West Jefferson. Everything fresh and authentic. Right next to New River Brewery- which makes sense as Thai food also goes well with beer. read more

Thank you for the food! I'm not well traveled and am simple. The food was delicious and satisfying. Thank you for the food!

Three of us had a delicious lunch. We really enjoyed the Masaman curry and two dishes, Ha Mok and Khao Soi, we've never seen on a menu at other Thai restaurants. All truly delicious. O who is Thai and the chef along with her husband were very friendly and inviting. We highly recommend their restaurant. Note that there is only outdoor seating or take out. read more

O's Thai Express - Outside eating! - Thai Near Me - West Jefferson, North Carolina

Real Thai food clearly cooked with love by O . What a wonderful surprise! If you have never tried Thai food this is the place to do it . The service is impecable. You can bring your own beer. read more

Best food in all of West Jefferson, hands down. This is real Thai food made with local ingredients, not frozen, and the menu is seasonal. Not only is it delicious, it's healthy and supports local farmers (produce). I've had the Cowsoy, spicy pork salad, spicy holy basil dish, and always end off with the mango sticky rice (dessert). A good menu is one that's small and rotates with the season, so you know the chef cooks it for you then and there. The owners are super friendly and provide good service. Love the ambiance of eating outdoors in a good area. read more

Limited daily menu which rotates. Had Tom Yum soup with chicken and some noodles. Broth was aromatic and lovely. The house made chili sauce is Thai hot and served on the side so you can tune up the heat to your liking. Lovely lunch. read more

Best Thai food I've ever had- it's like your at O's home and she's serving you a delicious made-from-scratch dish. You feel welcomed as soon as you see their smiling faces. Will gladly support this gem of a family! read more

The owners were so genuine,and extremely helpful They took time to explain to us all of the menu items. We had never had authentic thai food before and it was a really great first experience. I definitely recommend stopping by if your in the area. read more

Amazing Thai. It might be a small storefront but the flavor and quality of each dish have been phenomenal.

Delicious! I've been longing for authentic Thai food here in the high country, and O's is it. The panang curry was rich and flavorful, the pumpkin custard dessert was yummy. The rose lemonade really tasted of rose. They also have a magic lemonade that changes color when you add lime juice - fun! Meat, fish, vegetarian & vegan options the day we were there. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious. I can't wait to go back! read more
