    Pad thai, spicy fried rice, peach sake, blue moon beer
    Angie H.

    This was the first Thai restaurant we visited in Boise, and it was pretty good overall. The service was great as well, friendly and attentive. We ordered: - Pad Thai with Beef (Max Spice) - $17 | 7/10 It wasn't really spicy at all, even at max spice. The noodles were good though, and the bean sprouts and carrots added a nice crunch. The beef was cooked well and not dry. The portion was decent, but it felt a little pricey for around $17. - Thai Spicy Fried Rice with Beef - $15 | 7/10 I actually liked this more than the pad thai. The flavor was really nice, and it had lots of bell peppers. It also came with three good slices of cucumber on the side. Very filling and satisfying.

    This is what they served me in my take out for fresh veggies
    Diana D.

    We got take out from Pad Thai House and we got home, you can see what they actually served us as fresh vegetables. This place has been going downhill, but we thought we'd give it another chance. It used to serve really good food. I understand frugality and trying to save money but dang, you're a freaking restaurant, not a struggling medical facility that has to scrimp every dime. People are paying A Lot more money than they used to for your food so it should be at least eatable. This is not the first time we brought home practically uneatable food. I've brought home the same meal that was so over cooked it was a slimy soup. What the world had happened? Ever since the place moved into their new building it's gone down hill. So so disappointing since it's one of the few non fast food take out restaurants around here.

    Shrimp Pad Thai (authentic hot)
    Anthony L.

    Pad Thai House has been a go-to for Thai food in Meridian for years, and the newer location makes it even better with a big dining room and plenty of parking. The staff are always warm, welcoming, and quick to help. We kicked things off with the fresh rolls and Thai rolls, both packed with flavor and paired with dipping sauces that are the real star. The Pad Thai is the dish everyone comes for, and it never disappoints. I usually order it with shrimp or pork, and it always hits the spot. I go for the four pepper "authentic hot." It brings some heat, but it is more like a solid four-star American spicy than true Thai fire. Service is consistently excellent, and the vibe is casual and comfortable whether you are eating in or grabbing takeout. This place has been a long-time favorite and still delivers every time. Highly recommended.

    Fried shrimp
    Dani S.

    Came for lunch today and boy was this place poppin! It was so busy! Nothing makes me happier than seeing local businesses thrive! A couple of my co workers showed up before I did. They got some cold rolls started. I got to look over the menu and decided on a couple things. We were going to share some apps and then we would get our own dish. For starters I got the fried shrimp and for lunch I grabbed the Pad Thai with fried tofu. The fried shrimp was decent. There was a lot of breading to the shrimp. The texture of the breading was a little hard but edible. The dipping sauce helped. The cold rolls were good. I used to hate mint in my cold rolls but with age I'm starting to like it. I love the sauce that it's paired with. The cold rolls tasted really clean. We also had cha yar as a starter. It came with a good chunk of lettuce and cucumber. The flavor of the cha yar was tasty! The wrapping of it was rather hard. Again, once dipped in the sauce it helped the texture not to be tough. My pad Thai looked beautiful! There was so much fried tofu! It was a great amount for a lunch portion. I was so surprised. But sometimes quality it better than quantity. The flavor didn't quite hit for me today. It lacked in the flavor department. I did add some lime to it but it still didn't give me the normal flavors that I wanted. I was really hoping that my pad Thai was going to knock me out of my socks. This is probably the first time I wasn't impressed with my dish. I have had the birds nest and yellow curry here. Both have been fabulous. I just know with it being so busy that maybe they prepared it quickly to push it out. Either way, maybe it just wasn't my day. I know I will be back. Looking forward to a potential good meal here.

    We come here whenever I come to town and the food tonight was especially good! String beans (medium spice) were a new order but that was definitely the best dish tonight. Pad thai with shrimp (medium spice) was my favorite of the night Yellow curry with chicken (medium spice) was yummy but we probably should have gotten it spicier to balance the sweetness better Thai hot wings (medium spice) were a new dish for me but it was decent -- the chicken skin was delicious but the sauce was kind of lackluster for me.

    Tried this place again and definitely disappointed once again!!! Portions are crazy small to go for the price you pay. Containers are not even full! Will be going to a different Thai place. This place has slipped on thier to go customers. Order elsewhere because you won't feed your family with their portions.

    Pad Prik King

    The main complaint I have is if you're in a wheelchair or use a walker you wouldn't be able to enter the restaurant without help. The service is prompt and friendly. The background music is just loud enough to hear but not interfere with conversation. The food came out quickly the Kung Pow chicken was a little under done for my companion. My Pad Prik King was perfect and the right amount of heat.

    As I sit here during the lunch hour, I'm delightfully amazed and appreciate the extreme speed of service and taste of the food. I ordered the spicy noodles (D) with hot spice. It was out within 5 minutes. The taste was excellent, and their excessive use of garlic is perfect! My only complaint would be the use of a lot of oil. So much that it was difficult to keep the noodles on my fork. Other than that, I'm in and out within 20-25 minutes. Perfection.

    Quick seating lots of tables, quick service with plenty of room and the pad Thai was delicious at very reasonable prices.

    Tofu Pad Thai
    David S.

    Decent place and spacious. Food was good and had a good time with the friends we were with. The atmosphere at the place felt clean and comfortable,your not very close to other groups or tables. Like other Thai places, they seem to be removing some veggies and just putting thr protein.

    Pad Thai with chicken and fried tofu
    Maria R.

    The Pad Thai was good but unfortunately it took over 30 mins for my food. I came alone and though they were busy it wasn't packed. I would guess they were short staffed because everyone around me had to wait a while and I could hear people getting frustrated. There were also customers who walked out after not being helped on the "to go" side. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated and spacious though and my waiter did apologize for the wait. I just hope this was one of those one off days in terms of service!

The mix of Thai and Burmese dishes really sets it apart from other places in town. The food was overall really flavorful dishes like khao soi papaya salad and other northern Thai dishes , and everything tastes fresh and well-prepared. The flavors feel more traditional compared to a lot of Thai spots around here. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, which gives it a cozy vibe, but it can feel a little tight and busy during peak hours, so it's not the best place for big groups unless you plan ahead. Service was friendly and welcoming, and food came out pretty quickly even when it was busy. Overall, it's a great spot for quality Thai food in Boise. definitely one of the places I'd come back to when I want something more authentic and a little different.

    Get ready to tantalize your taste buds!…read more I visited this place on an early Sunday evening around 5 p.m. It wasn't too crowded, but it was bustling with DoorDash orders. I was introduced to this spot by DoorDash, and I was eager to try the restaurant for the fresh-cooked food experience. The hostess greeted me right away and showed me where to sit. Since I had walked over 2 miles to get here, I wanted to be seated rather than at one of the bar tables. If you're a fan of Thai food, this might just be your favorite place in Boise! It's got a nice vibe, and I noticed that the tables and chairs are cleaned after each visit. Everything is very clean and classy, even the restroom. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, but not too flashy. Fresh Spring Rolls with Shrimp 5/5 Spring mix, cucumber, carrot, cilantro, mint, rice noodles, and avocado wrapped in rice, served with peanut sauce or spicy Thai seafood sauce (add Shrimp for $2 extra). These are like a delicious, fresh, hand-held salad wrapped in rice paper. They're not fried, but fresh my favorite way to enjoy them. They also have Crispy Rolls, but I prefer the fresh ones. These are especially great on a hot summer day! They come with two dipping sauces: a peanut one and a lemony butter sauce. I know I'm different, but I like the lemony butter sauce instead of the peanut sauce. Pad See Ew 5/5 Stir-fried flat rice noodles with egg, carrot, broccoli in sweet black soy sauce, with your choice of meat. I tried it with seafood once and with veggies and beef another time. Always delish! Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodle) 3/5 Stir-fried flat rice noodles with green bean, bell pepper, Thai herbs, chilies, and basil, with your choice of meat. I've had mine with chicken, but this one's my least favorite because I thought some of the pieces were a bit too dry. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I didn't eat a few because they were tough. Since it was my second time, I didn't want to complain then, but maybe I should have mentioned it. Mistakes happen to everyone, so sorry for not bringing this up sooner. Slice of Cucumber Salad 16 oz 5/5 Thinly sliced cucumbers, red onions, and carrots, usually dressed in a light, sweet, and sour vinaigrette. This is a favorite of mine. To me a unique recipe! Fried Wings 5/5 Nice crispy, tender, and nicely fried chicken. Deep fried marinated Thai-style bone-in chicken wings served with sweet chili and sour sauce. So tender and juicy, yummy! Coconut Shrimp 5/5 Deep fried coconut shrimp served with spicy mayo sauce. Freshly made Sangria 5/5 Cold and delicious. The Game Changers: I appreciate that you can review your order before paying. I like the digital system, and what's more important, they ask for feedback right away. I think that's pretty cool and admirable. They want to know upfront if they've done anything that made you have a bad experience. I also like that they're linked up with Toast for loyalty reward points. Basically, for every dollar you spend, you can get a reward. I really think this is a great feature that the restaurant has that I haven't seen anyone comment on, but to me, it's a great benefit for the customer. Don't worry if you don't have a Toast account; I believe you can get one at their checkout process by providing your phone number. I already had a Toast account, so I might be mistaken. Just ask at checkout, and they will explain to you. They sanitize the tables after each use. They have chopsticks. The owners are from Thailand, and they have a great kitchen staff. The kitchen team includes Chef Wan and Chef Pronyanee. Chef Wan and Chef Pronyanee come from the northern province of Thailand. Chef Pitsy (Owner) is also from the northern province of Thailand. The restrooms are super clean. So customers and staff can wash their hands and keep the place as germ free as possible. I have gone to the restaurant three times so far and I think it's the one of if not the best Thai restaurant in Boise! (I haven't been to them all) As Arnold Schwarzenegger, character in the Terminator movie would say," I'll be back."
