My first time dining here for lunch. Spring rolls were decent but could have used more meat. Pad Thai was too bland and needed more flavor, maybe more fish sauce? Chicken curry was probably the best dish but needed to be hotter in temperature. Service was friendly and attentive. read more

Had a great experience and thought the food was delicious! The menu had A LOT of options so I kinda chickened out and got the basic House Fried Rice but I throughly enjoyed it and the portion size was huge. It came with a combination of pork, chicken and shrimp. Got a side of egg rolls and vegetarian spring rolls, both so good. There is a lot of construction on Grand Ave so parking right now could be tough but they do have a private parking lot in the back of their building. I didn't realize that and parked on one of the side street which was still fine just had to walk a little. A nice neighborhood spot, I recommend! read more

The food is amazing, the portions can be big. The service is very good, and it is not loud.

BEST egg rolls I have ever had. And I am old. The entire is yummy as well. What a gem

Overall, Pad Thai Restaurant in St. Paul is quite good! It's a relatively large restaurant so I was seated right away which was great. I'm a big fan of Pad Thai so of course, I ordered their Pad Thai. It was delicious and included plenty of flavorful sauce and meat. I also ordered the Gang Kha with chicken, it was also very good -- It had the perfect amount of coconut milk. The service was very fast and the food also came out very quickly. The only downside of Pad Thai Restaurant is the street parking. It's right on Grand Ave so highly recommend parking on Cambridge Street. read more

Great service! Delicious food. Couldn't believe how quick the server attended my table moments after being seated. Luckily , I knew exactly what I wanted and the appetizer was out in what felt like seconds. The entree wasn't too far behind making me totally impressed with the speed. The iced Thai Tea with cream was the cherry on top. There is a great parking lot in the back and then free parking anywhere on the street. I am rating it a 4 only because the interior felt slightly dirty. With a little upkeep, maybe some patching and a nice sweep, I'd rate this a 5. read more

The Tom Kha (has a slight variation in name on their menu) was really yummy. Tons of chicken and vegetables and a delicious flavor. The menu stated that their spring rolls were the best in the twin cities and I didn't snag a picture, but I would venture to say they're the best I've ever had. Unfortunately, the pad Thai wasn't my favorite as it seemed like it didn't have a ton of flavor. A bit of a bummer for a place named Pad Thai, but I would still come back if I was in the neighborhood. read more

i'm sick as fuck and absolutely miserable with the flu and thought " hmm some curry sounds reallyyyy good!" maybe the only thing that could make me feel even a little bit better. we received a call after ordering.....they ran out of potato's for my curry. WHAT DO YOU MEAN A RESTAURANT RAN OUT OF POTATOES AT 7:30 PM!!!!! might as well have told me they didn't have anything at all. never thought i'd say this but this might've been the singular worst time i've ever had because of potatoes. truly ruined my entire night. food hasn't even arrived yet and I'm in tears because what do you mean i'm having broccoli and carrots instead of potatoes in massaman curry. like fuck. worst night ever... read more

Definitely a better place for take-out than a dining experience. The food seems about B- or C+, and the prices are decent which makes it good for take-out. Dining in will be met with sort of nonchalant service, which to be fair can be nice when you're in the mood to just eat and leave quickly with little fuss. The place seemed a bit dusty, and the lids of the plastic containers the pepper oil and ground pepper they bring to your table seemed to have a sort of greasy film on them and unsanitary. So for price and convenience, I would stick with take-out. read more

I was excited to try Pad Thai Restaurant after we were in the area. I saw a review they had gluten free egg rolls and had to try them. We got egg rolls, pad Thai, and a red chicken curry. I am not sure which item it was but I felt very bloated after and may have had some cross contamination. The food was not my favorite thai I've had but it was cheaper than others. I'm disappointed I didn't feel well after. There is a lot of parking in streets around the building. Chicken entrees are around 13 dollars a piece with appetizers around 6. read more

Omg the best Thai food in the area I have had so far. The service was exceptional and very professional and so polite. The ambiance is outstanding with dim lighting and Thai temple like vibe. Honestly I felt welcomed and honestly a part if the Thaiwanese culture. It was remarkable and honestly the best experience I have had by far with a authentic Thai restaurant. Thanks so much for an amazing experience. read more

I met a friend here for lunch Friday 3/1/24. While we were waiting to be seated we saw a mouse run across one of the ceiling beams. Needless to say we decided to have lunch elsewhere. I know mice can happen sometimes but to see one run across a beam in the middle of the day points to a larger issue. I don't plan to return to Pad Thai which is a bummer because I have heard good things about their food. read more

My friend and I visited Pad Thai Restaurant late on a Saturday afternoon. There was plenty of parking in the back and the restaurant wasn't too busy so we were able to get seated at a booth quickly. He ordered the Thai coffee and I ordered the spring rolls and fried tofu as starters. He really enjoyed his coffee and we both loved the starters. I especially enjoyed the fried tofu and thought it was cooked to perfection! For our main dishes: I ordered the Pad See Yew and he ordered the Drunken Noodles. I got a spice level of 2 out of 4 and he got a 3 out of 4. I loved my dish. It was exactly what I needed as a late lunch pick me up. The flavor was superb and the spice level was perfect for me. He really enjoyed his drunken noodles and appreciated the amount of sauce on the noodles. He did think his dish was very spiced but he really enjoys spice. The service we received at this restaurant was great. Everything was done quickly without it feeling as though we were being rushed. Overall great experience and I am craving my noodles. read more

We were in a few weeks ago and had the most delicious Thai food! Everything was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. Service was very personable and friendly even on a busy Friday night! We will definitely be back for more! read more

Nice atmosphere, lots of seating, big menu! We tried the Green Curry Pasta with Fried Tofu and Pad Thai with Mixed Vegetables and they were both great. Pad Thai had a lot of flavor, the Green Curry had a nice balance of curry to noodles and was on the sweeter side. I would probably order the red curry next time as I tried my brother's and preferred it to the green. Good portion sizes and FAST service--we got our food minutes after ordering. read more

First off, the woman who came to our table after we had been seated was unfriendly and didn't even greet us. And after she set our water glasses on the table & walked away, I noticed my glass was dirty - there was something yellow stuck on the inside of the glass and something red on the outside rim of the glass. When the woman came back to our table to take our order, I began to tell her my glass was dirty and as I lifted it to show her what I was referring too, she GRABBED THE GLASS & TRIED TO SNATCH IT OUT OF MY HAND while saying "I see it." I was astonished at her rudeness and at that moment knew this was not somewhere I felt comfortable eating or spending my money. My family and I got up to leave the restaurant, before we even ordered food. I wanted to tell the manager of our experience before we left so I went and asked the man who had seated us if he was the manager or owner. He said "no, she's the owner" ... and he pointed at none other than the woman who had behaved so rudely to us! I told her that because of her behavior toward me and her rudeness, we were leaving. She didn't say anything in response. It is astonishing that the owner herself feels entititled to treat customers in such a disrespectful manner. I will never come to this place again as a result of this woman's behavior. We went to Coconut Thai a few miles away instead and had a wonderful meal there - they were kind & polite as soon as we walked in the door and the service and the meal were impeccable. Pad Thai is not a place I would recommend to anyone after this extremely negative experience. read more

This place serves good Thai food. The Thai Red Curry was really delicious, so was the curry noodle salad.

If you don't know that this little gem by Macaelester exists, stumble upon it soon. Food here is great. Like the name of the restaurant, the pad thai is its specialty. I get this on occasion, but I absolutely LOVE the pineapple fried rice and cream cheese wontons here. Those two are my go-to's. Check out the specials, you can also find a hidden gem of a dish there. The couple reasons I knock off a star are for spice level (like most Thai food, hot is HOT), but the "step up from mild" was too much for me. The service can also be a bit slow at times (even pre-pandemic), but is always friendly. read more

I live a block from here, so my husband and I frequent here often. The food is delicious and lots of vegan options! We normally do take out but have eaten in before! read more

Pad Thai NEVER disappoints. We've been eating here for years and it's always been great! Noodles are always perfect. Vegetables are always cooked just right and are always delicious! Our personal favorites are Thai Green Curry (Savory and slightly sweet), Pad Woon Sen, Pad See Ew, Gang Kha, and Papaya Salad! They also have perfect Thai Beef Jerky and Fried Egg Rolls! 5 Thumbs up and all the stars! read more

Being part Thai, I am very judgey when I try Thai food and it isn't authentic. I have only tried very simple dishes here so I do not have much to say about authenticity. I've stuck to fried rice and pad thai when I come and they both have been good! I've also never dined in so I do not have much to say regarding that experience but it's always been very easy to do pick-up! read more

Always the most delicious food and impeccable service! I have been coming here for years.

Best deep fried vegetarian egg rolls i've ever had. And the delicious sauce they come with is named perfectly it is absolutely delicious. the atmosphere is adorable and all the servers are extremely friendly some of them even recognize me at this point it really makes the place feel like a neighborhood staple. read more

A couple of things to watch out for: Spiciness is 1-4 so watch out what you order! 3 is plenty spicy for me..has anyone done a 4 and survived? Their hours-they close at about 2pm & reopen at 4pm. It is disappointing to get there, only to be turned away. There is parking behind the building (that's why I've included the photo). We've skipped eating here before because I didn't know about the parking lot! Some items are not my favorite here, but they have a rocking pad see ew & a white noodle specialty dish that I can't remember the name of read more

Oof. Ordered the coconut soup. For $20 (I got the chicken) you get absurdly sweet broth with not a vegetable in sight. No cilantro, no carrot, not even a bamboo shoot! Come on man. Can't say I've ever had a soup that made me cough because it was so sweet. It was inedible and I felt bamboozled. read more

Pad Thai is our go to Thai and they proved again why last night. Had guests in from CA and across the River 8 of us total). Every dish we ordered was delicious. Pad Thai, red curry chicken, Thai beef salad, spring rolls, pad si yew, As one of our friends (from across the river) said to me, "this is the best Thai food I have had in a long time". Great service as well. read more

Ordered drunken noodles, pad Thai, and fried rice. Some of the pad Thai in the cities. Not sweet which I love.

First time here and I really liked it. For a Wednesday night this place had a good amount of people in it. We stared out with spring rolls and wontons. They came out FAST, I blinked and they were at the table. Both tasted very good and fresh. Dinner came out quick as well. I had the peanut chicken and it was perfect. I can't wait to go back here. read more

The gluten free deep fried egg rolls are life changing with the dipping sauce. Ordered takeout and will be back!

Papaya Salad was bland and not fresh, with rancid peanuts and soggy papaya strips, thickly cut. This is hands down the worst Papaya Salad I have eaten in any Thai restaurant and I have eaten at least 100 different restaurants throughout the USA. Red Curry was okay but more of dreary brown color, not the regular bright red I see in most places .. just not fresh tasting although I will say the sweet and sour balance is pretty good in the curry with it not being overly sweet. The bamboo shoots were very chewy and fibrous and the carrots were overcooked. Plus side it is they give you large portions and it is the least expensive Thai restaurant in town. Ambiance is decent. Service was mediocre if not a bit impersonal and impatient. Long wait for takeout not made in advance. I will never go back here but it seems to be a popular destination in the neighborhood. read more

My favorite restaurant hands down! Service is always super friendly and fast. If you go in to sit down or do take out your order will be ready in 15 minutes at the most! If you're looking for a really good order there get the green curry pasta! The 402 pad prio wan is also very good, but the green curry pasta has my heart. Cream cheese puffs are amazing as well! read more

We've been coming here for a handful of years and have never had a bad meal or experience! My favorite dish is the yellow curry with fried tofu and my husbands is chicken pad Thai. We always get the cream cheese puffs and fresh vegetarian spring rolls. The portions are heavy enough that you could share a dish with another person, or have a second dinner to take home! You can choose your spice level which I love! The staff work so hard to make sure you have a nice meal. It's a ma & pop kind of business so it always feels good to enjoy a meal there. The ambiance is authentically Thai with beautiful scenery and comfortable booths and tables. We've gone with large groups and just us two, no matter what we always have a great experience. We used to live in the cities but have since moved to the suburbs but whenever we are in the area we make sure to grab food at Pad Thai! read more

I have been to this location three different times and I would argue its the best in a small radius... I would have scored it four stars because the food is pretty decent, but nothing to write home about. However, each time I have been there the service is always subpar. I have been a server and I get it, you have days ... but each time I felt like I was such a bother. I don't need a hug, but when I ask for a refill of whatever or a to-go bag - eye rolls or a attitude in the tone of voice has been so off putting. What you can expect is pretty decent food for the location. I have enjoyed the spring rolls multiple times with great consistency. I will more than likely come back for take out, but not dining in. read more

My absolute favorite restaurant in the entire world. If I could choose only ONE restaurant to eat at for the rest of my life, it would be Pad Thai on Grand!! It makes me so happy to come here, everyone is so kind and friendly and the food is ABSOLUTELY incredible, my favorite food in the entire world. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!!! If you need a recommendation: pad thai, or my favorite, red curry pasta with shrimp. The side dishes are also SUPER good! The mango sticky rice is a MUST if you come here!!! The best Thai food in the Twin Cities hands down. Always makes me feel better and brings a smile to my face! read more

I just moved to the area and I have officially found my new Thai go to! Everything we ordered was awesome! Loved the egg roll and vegetarian spring roll and the sauce that they came with was sweet and vinegary and garlicky. Also would highly recommend the pad woon sen, super flavorful and a great vegetarian option. We got medium spice level and didn't really notice any spice at all so if you like spicy food def order a higher spice level. read more

Based on the reviews, it was hard to gauge how the restaurant was, as it seemed to have either 2-3/5 vs 5/5 stars. I ordered takeout, and for me, my experience was okay. A couple of the dishes I got included the green curry and the drunken noodles. They were good portions. The green curry was very creamy, but the flavor was pretty good and it had a good helping of tofu (the protein I chose). The drunken noodle, however, was 90% noodles and very few of the vegetable and protein ingredients. The first bite had a nice tangy bite, but that was it - the rest was relatively bland. The prices are fair. I can't say anything about the service as I ordered takeout and did not dine in. I do not think I will go back, as there are better (and more flavorful) Thai food elsewhere. Perhaps if I do though, I would not order the drunken noodles and would give another dish a shot. read more
