    L20. Drunken Noodles Lunch Special
    Nicole B.

    Really great lunch specials. I love their spring rolls! I got the drunken noodles and they had a lot of flavor. This is a small location in a strip mall, but it has a cozy feel. The staff were very friendly and super attentive.

    We ordered Uber eats! This has always been one of my favorites for Thai food when I visit. Very flavorful! Still super yummy! Only thing I found different is the Pad See Ew wasn't as saucy. Some reason I remember it being more saucy , it was like something was missing. But still tasty. We loved the fried rice and the shrimp! Overall super delish! We will order again! Thank you

    Yellow Curry Chicken

    So yummy! We called in our order and the lady who answered the phone was so nice. She told us about the special of the day, which was crab fried rice. Of course we had to get it and was glad we did. We ordered the crab fried rice, curry chicken, house noodles and garlic shrimp. All of the food was super fresh with great flavor. I wish I could bake my favorite but they all were. Just the right amount of spice and seasoning. A bit pricey but definitely worth it. We'd be back for sure!

    Pineapple Curry Chicken

    I've been coming here for multiple years, whenever I'm craving delicious curry recipes. Each time I'm here the staff are so sweet and friendly. That alone deserves five stars. This place has become the small, romantic getaway for my fiancé and me (5min from home). I will always be coming back for their cuisine.

    I've never had Thai food before so decided to give it a try. The restaurant has a small indoor dining room and also more space outside. Interior is decorated with the Thai theme. There is a tv with sports and the music is current pop hits ( which I liked). I ordered the Pad Thai and it was delicious. A huge pile of thin noodles with pieces of the protein I picked out (chicken). I ordered spice level 2 because I can't eat spicy food. It was sweet and delicious and I took home half because the portions are huge. Hubby had some rice dish with the beef and he ate the whole thing. He thoroughly enjoyed it also. I would definitely come back here.

    Thai Custard and Sweet Sticky Rice
    Lei G.

    DoorDash delivery dinner. The Peanut Curry was flavorful, the Thai custard sweet sticky rice was disappointing- the consistency was wet & runny. It seemed like it was a frozen dish that was reheated in the microwave. Unlikely to order that dessert again

    Combo Appetizer with Roach

    Ordered Online tonight Wednesday 5/21 for pick up Combo App Chicken Pad Thai Thai Iced Tea Got Home with Food and began to spilt the Pad Thai on to 2 plates. Found a roach covered in sauce :( Roach had been cooked with my Food. Restaurant handled it amazing. repacked all the food with the bug and returned to restaurant. Restaurant returned funds paid. Will never be eating at this location again.

    Thai basil has all the great thai dishes that people are looking to try. They are a good example of good Thai food. My favorites at Thai basil are pad Thai, green curry, and the ginger plate. I asked that I do a pickup which they are always quick at providing for all their customers. The takeout containers that they provide give you ample food for any any hungry customer. The ratio between the meat and vegetables is excellent. The food is very tasty and you get it hot.

    9.99 LUNCH SPECIALS WOW! L09. Green Curry Lunch Special, Panang Curry lunch special, L14. Pad Thai Lunch Special! Big portions!
    Robyn V.

    So so good! The bad reviews are really a shame- this place rocks, and I've not only lived in Thailand, but am a huge connoisseur of Thai food in the valley and have been to 20 or so places. This place is in my top 3 for sure! Service is polite and consistent. Place is small and has authentic decor. KILLER lunch specials also - large portions, flavor food, lots of options, and low lunch special pricing. Check out my menu photo. Enjoy! :)

    Side of Noodles
    Tara A.

    Very pleasant interior, and comfortable. Super friendly staff, and very accommodating. Had the Thai tea which was lovely, along with the green curry and chicken. The curry was flavorful, fresh, and left a great impression. Got the baby a side of noodles, and they were soft and cooked well. The restrooms were easily accessible in the back. This place is a definite new favorite!

    The restaurant

    For a lunch spot in the fly it was pretty good. We got there and it was empty, but slow filled with people as lunch went by. The host was very friendly and greater us as we came in. There is a lot on their menus so read and choose carefully because it's all tempting. We placed our order and it was out in about 10 mins. Very fresh and on target. The spice levels rary from 1-5. We got 3 on both dishes and it was perfect amount of spice for us. The fried rice was great with carrots, onions, and peppers mixed throughout. The pork was nice and tender. The peanut curry was creamy and coated the chicken. We were both very happy with the meal. There were a couple things we had a remarks. The amount of rice with the curry dish was not enough to correspond with the amount of curry. Ratio was not there. And the friend rice was good but there wasn't enough pork throughout. A bit more meat would have been great as the amount of veggies was much greater. Overall a good lunch choice and probably dinner as well. You get plenty of food so you won't go away hungry and the environment and staff friendly.

    Delicious food! Fresh taste! A little spicy is the perfect amount of spice to taste it without the burn! Outside patio is awesome!
    Daise V.

    First time trying this place. Came in and got pad Thai with Thai iced tea. Asked for pad Thai a little spicy which was the perfect amount of spice to taste spicy but no burn! Delicious food! Even the spring roll tasted so fresh! Loved it all. The outside environment is really calming and relaxing. Can be alone or with friends and even family with kids. Definitely will be returning !

    Meh Thai fried rice
    K.M S.

    Ordered takeout from this place. The beef pad-see-ew plate we ordered was over cooked, disgusting, eeeeeeew! Fried calamari priced at $10 was a total ripoff, tasted like frozen calamari. Ordered tofu Pad Thai and it was bland and tofu were tiny pieces. Thai fried rice was meh... Save your money go somewhere else

    Best lunch spot!

Upon my approach, the exterior was so beautifully curated that I initially mistook it for an exclusive, private small garden. I stopped at Glai Baan and ventured inside, finding the dining room wonderfully bustling with a lively, fashionable crowd a thoroughly excellent sign. The venue offers the most delightful arrangements; one may choose to dine within the main room or enjoy a seat adjacent to the exquisite flower beds and lush, cool greenery. There is also a beautifully structured small bar. The entire aesthetic is nothing short of exceptional, and I found myself quite enamored with the decor. I escorted myself to an excellent table facing the bar and requested a traditional Thai Iced Tea to begin. The bartender was an absolute credit to the establishment immensely warm, professional, and genuinely friendly. The hospitality here is truly remarkable; the staff handles their patrons with the gracious care of family, which I found immensely pleasing. For my dinner entrée, I selected the Kanom Jeeb, which bears a marvelous resemblance to the finest dim sum found in elite Chinese establishments. The kitchen executed the order with commendable timing, and upon its elegant presentation, my evening meal was rendered entirely complete. The seamless blend of sophisticated flavor, beautiful botany, and refined hospitality was an absolute treat. I shall most certainly be returning to this charming sanctuary in the near future

Given the landlocked area and dearth of Asian markets, I have so much respect and awe that they dont hold back on lemongrass and all the thai spices in both of the food and cocktails. Loud, modern, and hip scene even on a Wednesday night. 45 min to 1 hour wait if you attempt walk in but we did reservations just a week prior. We opted for indoors since we visited in June heat and that was a great decision as we were sat in the back clubhouse which felt like a secret cocktail club. Btw, if you reserve indoors or outdoors, they will hold you to it. Save room for their hibiscus and lemongrass creme brûlée that has the perfect crust and smooth texture. Even if you can't take a lot of spice, they did a great job sharing what dishes would still work. Appreciated the thoughtful text ahead of time to arrive early for parking because yes, it's extremely challenging in that area even though my dad has a disabled placard. Just go here. So worth it.

It tastes even better with that Thai chili sauce. I didn't take the photos of all the other dishes but they were all super delicious. The first time when I came, the service was impeccable - they were nice, attentive, and patient. The second time was a bit disappointing. It took a really long time for one of my friends' dishes to come. But when we checked with them, we were told "it will come when it's ready." I understand that they were busy at that moment. But they could have told us in a better way. Overall, I always look forward to dinning here. And this is definitely one of the best Thai restaurants in Phoenix!

As a proud Yelp Elite, I decided to give this place a chance because the reviews were the best I saw in the city! The place was busy on a Sunday night and it is small but I never say customers waiting too long. There were two larger parties seated so the food took some time but nothing outrageous. We started with the calamari, spring rolls, and crab wontons. The calamari were the biggest I've ever seen and very delicious! Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the spring rolls or crab wontons. I feel like those are hard to get wrong but I was not a fan of the cream cheese that was used and it was a lot of it, barely any imitation crab. For entrees, I had the spicy basil and substituted ground chicken for chicken breast, my personal preference. I ordered level 2 spice but it was still a bit spicy for me. Trying a new Thai place is always hit or miss with spice levels so I actually thought I was being safe with 2. Additionally, the chicken was so bland. Some Thai places season their chicken, some do not and unfortunately Pad Thai Cafe missed that mark. My partner ordered the short rib curry dish and my goodness, it smelled like heaven and tasted just as good. I don't eat beef but had to taste it and it was divine! He also ordered spice level 2 and his dish was not as spicy as mine. Overall, the rest of the party enjoyed their food and there were good flavors there so I'd definitely recommend the entrees, not so much the starters.
