    Chicken satay
    Christine W.

    The chicken satay I got was delicious! The business there was so good that our waitress couldn't come by often. Other than that, the food was on point. The ambiance was nice, but the A/C was definitely broken tonight.

    I had no idea the restaurant changed from Dos Perros to Thaiangle until Valentine's Day when we were downtown and saw it. We've been looking for a good Thai restaurant and may have juat found it. The decor was very nice and the food was great. We ordered the Chef's special Pacific Rim and Spicy Bamboo with beef. Portions were definitely large. The PaciRim had a good amount of seafood and a hearty amount of beef i. The spicy bamboo. We ordered both hot. The seafood was spicier and great flavor. Drinks were good and decently priced. We had great service and enjoyed our coenwrner table in the bar. The restaurant definitely got busy as the evening went on. We will be back to try the wings for sure and some of the other dishes.

    Pad see eew
    Sydney H.

    I came here on a wednesday night and it was pretty busy. As soon as we walked in there was a line of people waiting to be seated. There was no hostess or anyone to greet or tell us how long the wait would be. Multiple servers walked by the line, but no one was acknowledged at all. We waited about 20 minutes before a server came to bring us to our table. However, once we were sat our service was much better. We ordered shu mai to start. The shu mai was just okay and it was $9 for 4 pieces. our group order beef thai basil, chicken spicy bamboo and i ordered the pad see ew and a thai iced tea. All of our food came out pretty quickly considering how busy they were. The portions were very big and we all left with leftovers. My pad see ew was pretty good but i do wish it had a little more flavor and that the noodles were a little thicker.

    Drunken noodles and Panang curry
    Meghan M.

    This is my new favorite Thai spot in the Triangle! Really good food and if you get the tofu option, they go hard on the veggies, which I appreciated. The portions are also huge! I got the drunken noodles, and ended up with leftovers. This rendition of drunken noodles truly blew me out of the water; the noodles were perfectly cooked and the dish was so flavorful. Also had the mango sticky rice for dessert, which was solid; the rice was a bit hard for my liking, so I probably won't be getting that again. On the weekdays, they do a $15 lunch special with many of their most popular dishes. Unfortunately, the lunch special isn't available on weekends. Service was on top of it initially but as the restaurant got busier, we did end up waiting a while to get boxes for our food and receive our checks. Ambiance is nice and tastefully decorated. I definitely will be coming back!

    Gyoza (Steamed)
    Jiyoung S.

    When it's cold outside, my body needs Thai food. A friend recommended this place after seeing them on social media, and oh boy, the hype was real. We came for dinner on Thursday night around 6:30 pm, and this place was packed. We had to wait quite some time to be seated, and it took more time to be served. If possible, I would go here a little earlier than that time. Also know what you want and order them as soon as you can since you may need to sit for a while until you can grab the server's attention. We got Steamed Gyoza for the table, I got Pacific Rim - Hot, and my friends got other dishes. I ate every drop of my dish. It was absolutely banging, perfect for a cold night. Their menu is so extensive, and I cannot wait to try more food!! Parking wasn't that convenient. Either street parking or park at the parking deck. There are parking spaces throughout downtown Durham, so you will find something.

    Pad Thai
    Athavi J.

    Thai Angle never misses for me. It has to be the most reliable delivery of Thai food in the Triangle area, and they don't skimp on the heat. If you ask for hot, you will get hot. If medium, it may still be a bit hot. We got yellow curry, drunken noodles, and pad thai. I didn't try the pad thai as I don't typically enjoy this dish. But yellow curry and drunken noodles were 5/5. Flavors were spot on and portions were large. Priced well for the quality. Ambience is family-friendly with Thai decor. There was a line when we went in on Friday night, but people were seated within 15 minutes.

    Papaya salad
    Kassim C.

    What I recommend: The coconut soup, drunken noodles, papaya salad, and a cold Chang beer This was my first time dining in at Thai Angle after having takeout a few times, and the experience was fantastic. We ordered the coconut soup, which came in a huge portion that easily feeds two to three people, and got it very spicy. It was incredible. The drunken noodles were also a massive portion with great flavor, and the papaya salad was fresh and bright. The Chang beers came in ice cold chilled glasses, which made them even better. Overall, Thai Angle is great bang for your buck. It is slightly pricier than spots like Thai on Main, but the portions are much larger and the quality is top tier. The ambience is great, the service is always 10 out of 10, and the staff makes you feel taken care of. As a Thai food enthusiast, this is my number one Thai spot in Durham. Definitely add it to your list, and get here early because the line gets long fast.

    Drunken Noodles with Chicken
    Kristine N.

    My friends and I are always on the lookout for good Thai food in the area, and Thaiangle did not disappoint. I ordered the Drunken Noodles, and honestly, it's probably the best version I've had around here so far. You can choose your protein and spice level, and what really stood out to me was the wok hei flavor that came through--super flavorful and well-balanced. We came right when they opened and were seated immediately, but the restaurant filled up quickly, so I'd recommend getting there early if you don't want to wait. Service was quick, and it's a family run restaurant, which made it feel like a home-cooked meal experience. I'll definitely be back to try more of their dishes!

    We drive from Cary just to eat here. Food is amazing and they serve brown rice. Servers get orders right, deliver the food hot and are extremely nice. The restaurant is beautiful and very clean. Making this a regular place in our rotation. If you have time, take a walk around the American Tobacco District across few blocks away.

    For parking, you will either have to park in a lot or find street parking. There was plenty of street parking on N Church Street and Cleveland Street which is located right behind the restaurant. My sister and I came in on a Friday night and we were pretty worried at first because there was a line almost out the door. But thankfully, we were seated within less than 10 minutes. We ordered the following: - Thai Iced Tea - Tom Kha Chicken - Pad See Ew The Thai iced tea was sweet and refreshing! As for the other 2 dishes, they were both delicious! I loved the presentation of the tom kha chicken and how the soup stayed nice and warm which is perfect for the chilly fall weather. I also appreciated how the soup was filled with mushrooms, chicken, and bamboo. And with all the lemongrass and spices used, every sip was fantastic! Pad See Ew is always a safe/classic option when you don't know what to order. My sister and I enjoyed this savory and satisfying noodle dish. Not to mention, the portion size is huge- we even had to take some home. The dishes came out within 15 minutes of placing the order so I appreciate how fast and diligent the workers and cooks were despite it being so busy! Everything we ordered here was delicious and I can't wait to come back again!

    Gyoza
    Vraj P.

    My friends found this restaurant and wanted to try it in Durham. I started off with the Thai tea. Although it was good, I did feel like it was lacking a little bit of flavor. Afterwards, we got the Gyoza. These were actually pretty good and we ate them very quickly. Finally I got the drunken noodles with chicken spicy. The portion size for this was massive. It was very well spiced and I would get it again. The inside felt like a good cozy atmosphere with plenty of seating. We went on a Thursday and were able to get seated immediately. Service was a little bit slow, but they were pretty busy inside. Prices were on the higher end, but match the portion sizes. No direct parking, but there are parking decks around the area. Overall, I really like this place and I would come back. Definitely want to try the Panang curry next time.

    Pad Thai shrimp
    Ryan C.

    I've been here many times and the food is always amazing. I would recommend. Sometimes the appetizer comes after the entree so just be aware if you like it before your meal. Once thing I will say is they really need to hire a host. The servers are seating you and running around the whole time. I do believe this would fix some of their timing issues. If they are busy plan to wait at least 45 minutes for your food. The food is very good but adding a few additional people like a host could help a ton.

    Red curry with chicken
    Shanelle Y.

    I've been wanting to come back here for a while and I finally did last night! I brought 2 of my friends with me and we ordered dumplings to share, curry, and khao soi. The food was delicious and they both loved it. I stand by my previous statement that this is indeed the best Thai food in Durham!

Of the many restaurants downtown, I especially appreciate Thai At Main Street's flexibility around serving large groups on relatively short notice. We came here on a Friday night (always busy in Durham). We called half an hour in advance for a group of 8 people, and by the time we arrived they had a table ready for us. The inside isn't large, but even though all of the tables were full, the volume was very reasonable. At our table of eight, we had no trouble hearing one another and conversed as a group. Service was prompt (even though the place was packed), and the food came out within 15-20 minutes. I got the Drunken Noodles, which I've had here before & always enjoy. My partner got the Pad See Ew, which was also phenomenal. Two in our party got the pineapple fried rice, which was a big hit (even with my slightly picky younger sister!).

Lol The place was packed and we were walk ins but the owner was at the reception desk and told us to wait and she might be able to find us a table. We were in luck and she directed us to the back room. The server was extremely knowledgeable about all the dishes. Since I had my Philippino friend along she told us what she liked as well as the helpful server. The food was delicious and had a beautiful presentation.

My friend had oxtail and the other had an appetizer of Lumplang Shanghai and entre of Pancit Behon, all food was extraordinary and large portions. No doubt that was why the place was packed!

We sat at the bar and waited, taking a moment to look over the cute and cozy interior -- definitely a nice spot for a date night or dinner with friends. Sure enough, the potstickers were ready in less than 5 minutes, and when giving us our order, DJ also gave us a bottle of white wine and two cold bottles of beer -- entirely unprompted!
