    Drunken Ramen
    Rose P.

    I was pleasantly surprised! Salween is very tasty and I could tell it was different than others. Everything tasted very fresh and healthy. It wasn't greasy takeout- it was light and hearty! The portion sizes were just right. The chicken and steak were not chewy and the veggies were perfectly sautéd. The sauce was light and delicious. The rice was great and it was shaped in a heart! I will order here again

    First time trying Thai food and had a great experience. Our waiter was super attentive. We tried several appetizers and didn't have a bad item. We tried: Fried Samosa Triangle Puffs, spring rolls, chicken satay and a few others I can't remember. My friend got their Pad Thai and said it's one of his favorites in Omaha. I got Fried Wonton Noodles and loved the flavor and different textures. I really like how you can pick the spice level from 1-10. I went with 3 because I wasn't sure what to expect and would have even gone a little more spicy.

    Sweet Rice Mango. SO DELICIOUS!
    Andrea B.

    Wanted to try a new Thai place and one of my colleagues raved about Salween Thai. So I ordered their crab rangoon, pad thai and their mango sticky rice dessert. The crab rangoon were delicious! It came with this neon yellow sauce that's like a less sweet version of sweet and sour sauce. Very yummy! But the pad thai was awful. This is such a staple in Thai restaurants and I was so disappointed. First off, the smell was putrid and off putting. And it all goes downhill from there. The taste was much like the smell - rancid and stomach churning. I even attempted to rinse it off and I still couldn't get past the smell or taste. I can't even describe what it tasted like. Old takeout that's been in the fridge for a month? Honestly the worst pad thai that I've ever eaten. But the sweet rice mango TOTALLY made up for it! WOW! I would go back just for that! Big piece of mango beautifully laid over a bed of sticky rice with coconut milk. I could make a meal out of just that. It's heavenly. Like a cloud of deliciousness. I would try Salween Thai again but I wouldn't order the pad thai. Maybe I tried this dish on an off night. I'm not sure. But I'll be dreaming of that sweet rice mango for weeks to come.

    This place is everywhere! Literally, three+ locations in Omaha and on so many social sites, I feel like I've eaten here a dozen times. But, tonight was my first real experience...zany first rice heart ever! It was great, we tried so many things, they were all so good! -red curry: so refreshing, so flavorful, perfecto -pad Thai: good, not great, have definitely had better, not sweet at all small amount of chicken, too many sprouts -broccoli beef: fantastic! We should have ordered two, it was the fan favorite -sampler: not a fan of shrimp or tofu so wasn't a big hit with me but my husband ate it up! -wontons: pretty good! I've had bigger and more cream cheese in other spots but good. Unique sauce to go with it All in all it was pretty good! Not my favorite spot but I do see why it is so popular!! Definitely recommend.

    Grilled Beef Salad

    Grilled beef salad ordered through GH, because for some reason not on UE menu. The circled area is where the dish was, the upper left is one hunk of raw, uncut cabbage, and the rest is leaf lettuce. It's delicious, but it's 3/4 container of throwaway food.

    GF pad Thai extra egg with chicken
    Jamie L.

    Super impressed by not only the food but the attention paid by the lady who took my order. I confirmed before driving here that they could make most dishes gluten free - which they can. I was greeted by a nice lady who went over the menu with me and even verified the green papaya salad could be made gluten free. I ended up getting chicken pad Thai extra egg, combo fried drunken noodle (no shrimp) with bean sprouts, and Thai style papaya salad. The Pad Thai was fantastic although next time I'll order it a bit spicier. The noodles were still springy but cooked and it wasn't floating in greased and not overly salty or sugary. Well balanced. My only complaint was they should give you more lime wedges but I had some at home. The drunken noodles I think we all agreed were the best. Good depth of flavor and spice. Again next time I'll be adventurous and get it spicer. Wish they had more broccoli though. The green papaya salad was yummy and I've never had that before so I have no comparison but it was VERY strong with raw garlic. I don't know if it's supposed to be like that but I did enjoy it and I'll be fending off vampires for probably a week! The food came out fast and fresh. They were all wearing masks and being socially distanced. Will be back for sure.

    I love Salween Thai because it is so good, reasonably priced and I feel it is healthy for food prepared by a restaurant.

    Omaha Mercy Thai Restaurant - Fried Chicken

    Stopped by Mercy Thai Restaurant and had a really solid meal…read more Started with the fresh spring rolls -- super crisp veggies, fresh herbs, and perfectly cooked shrimp. The dipping sauce had a nice sweet and tangy balance that tied it all together. You can tell everything was made fresh. The soup was just what I wanted too. Light but really flavorful broth, plenty of herbs and green onions, and comforting without feeling heavy. Service was friendly, food came out quick, and the overall vibe was relaxed and easy. Great local spot when you're in the mood for fresh, flavorful Thai food. Would definitely come back.

    Honestly I was really disappointed with Mercy Thai…read more The chicken wings were completely flavorless. They literally just seemed battered in panko and fried with no seasoning at all. 0/10. The crab rangoons sounded good from the description -- cream cheese, crab pieces, onion, and carrots -- but they were WAY too sweet for my taste. Not to mention there were none of the ingredients described inside?! Seems like it was only cream cheese and sugar. Then the sweet chili sauce that came with them was super watery and just made it worse. 2/10 overall. I also tried my boyfriend's drunken noodles and... mid at best Definitely not something I'd come back for. Maybe other menu items are better, but based on what I tried, I personally wouldn't recommend it.
