    Peanut Butter Chicken
    Julia Y.

    My family and I love to frequent Omaha Thai restaurants. With a craving for Pad Thai, my family decided to stop in here. The service was friendly, and the food took no time at all, even though it was a Saturday! They had a plethora or Take out Orders instead, but we definitely had priority for the eat in space, there was only one other table! The server answered our questions patiently, recommending spice levels for our tolerance (we like to think we are tough, but we stick to a 5/10 lol) The pad Thai was perfect. I hadn't ordered it in years, but this hit the spot perfectly. My mom had the chicken, and got the same spice as me, and said that it was a bit too spicy for her, but with a few lime wedges added to my own, I thought that it was perfect. The noodles were well coated with sauce, without being too wet or soggy, and there was a generous amount of tofu in the dish. For appetizers, the spring rolls and crab rangoon was great, as expected! Crispy, hot, and promptly served. The crab rangoon filling was a bit softer/runnier than I expected, but with a crispy outside to soak it up, satisfactory. I recommend stopping by this little Thai joint, you can expect quick and kind service with some great flavors.

    Everything is extremely salty. I ordered with DD and there was no option to note for the chef to not add salt. Pad Thai, very flavorful, very, super sweet, tangy, salty. Green curry is not even green in color. Egg soup is salt water with egg. Everything comes with bell Pepper and no option to note for no bell pepper.

    Food was all amazing from the appetizers to the entrees. Came on a rainy day and was craving ramen and it was very good (on the sweeter side). Pad Thai was also one of the best I have had. Also the fortune cookies- so good!

    Service is amazing Very nice vibe Seat yourself Food is excellent I am a Thai food fanatic My Thai curry red combination could feed three people with extra rice. Very nice flavor I got spice level 2 since I am not sure of how hot the next levels are. I wish I found this place last week.

    We ordered the egg rolls, drunken noodles and Thai tea. Everything was delicious. Prices were reasonable, service was great

    We enjoyed our experience here. The restaurant is small, cozy, and clean. Our server was quick and attentive and food came fairly quickly. The drink menu is simple but has all the basics to accompany a meal. We enjoyed the food. The yellow curry was very flavorful and the portion was quite large! The crispy chicken had a nice flavor as well and had a good texture to the chicken without being dry. The drunken noodles were good but not my favorite. The appetizers were also just okay. We ordered the shrimp tempura, spring rolls, and crab rangoon. They were good but nothing out of this world.,The crab rangoon tasted like they were made with sweet condensed milk which I did not prefer. Overall the food was good and we would come back.

    I stopped in for a quick lunch. The staff was friendly and efficient. The décor is nice and tranquil. Pretty chill relaxing Thai ambiance. The food was very flavorful and being a little spice adverse I went for a 2 and really felt no spice at all so maybe next time I'll go for a 3 or 4. The wings weren't my favorite but the pad Thai was fantastic, very flavorful. I highly recommend. I'm looking forward to coming back trying some more of the menu. They also served some dough rings and mini rolls that I didn't realize came with the meal. Very tasty.

    To be honest I wasn't expecting much even though my husband loves this place. We decided to go for a couples night with my fellow yelper Candace and her Hubby. We sat at a booth, and were given menus very quickly, while being asked for drinks. Josh ended up being our waiter and server, he was excellent at explaining the heat levels that you can order for the food. He was also very detailed in letting us know what we are ordering, and the different kind of sauces that came with. I was a little disappointed since they didn't have beef jerky, but they had a lot of other choices. I was super hungry and wanted it all but we started with the appetizer tray. I decided to go with the crispy chicken and plum sauce and Hubby got the pineapple fried rice with added beef. I have been looking everywhere for a really good combination fried rice and this is it. The flavor was amazing. I no longer have to make my own fried rice. I will be coming here. Combination fried rice is a family favorite. The appetizers were all delicious. My chicken, rice and broccoli were just as good. I asked for the plum sauce on the side and some of their peanut sauce. I poured it on half of my food and it was Mm Mm Good. The Hubby and I couldn't keep our chopsticks to ourselves. Needless to say you have to try it yourself. Oh yeah, the appetizers were so good. I didn't get any pictures of our actual entrées.

    Thai Esarn might be my new favorite Thai place in Omaha! My family and I dined in Friday evening for dinner. We tried the pad Thai, Thai beef noodle soup, and basil fried rice. All of the food came out piping hot and it was so full of flavor. I loved the pad Thai in particular. It had a ton of sauce and the pork was extremely tender, way better than most pad Thais I've had where the meat is very dry. There was also a ton of meat in the dish. I ordered a spice 5 and it was a perfect level. It was probably some of the best flavorful pad Thai I've had in Omaha! As others have noted, the service was on the slower side. It took about 35 min for our food to come out. The staff were pretty busy with phone calls and take out orders. However, the food was delicious and worth it. I definitely plan to visit again soon!

Gilberts you've been knocked down to number 2. I love the calamari and the dips they came with. It has the perfect chew and wasn't overcooked.

The ambience of 402 is nice and seems upscale but at the same time casual. I like that because we weren't dressed up.

If you get a choice of spots to sit, I would request not to sit on west side of restaurant where there is a long bench seat and tables lined up. It felt pretty close together, a little too cozy for me. The table next to us was in our conversation too often and we could definitely hear their conversation just fine. I'm also not sure what our "Universal Service Fee" was for, but wasn't an outrageous fee. We paid cash trying to avoid the extra fees. In all, it's a good spot as long as you get to chat with your party and not have unintended visitors from neighboring tables.

I had the burger with bacon and bleu cheese, and the waitress was nice enough to note my request for lighter amounts of bleu cheese - it goes exceptionally well with bacon but has a strong enough flavor to not need an excessive amount. It seemed like there was none at all on there, so perhaps that was my mistake for asking. I feel like it is normally piled on there but I did still want *some.* The Nashville sandwich was nothing special, but the coleslaw was good. 6/10. The new honey chicken sandwich was good, 8.5/10. The truffle cheesesteak had noticeable truffle, even a little much, which you don't always get, and maybe not enough cheese, but was overall good. 7/10. The fries and sweet potato fries were both very good, well seasoned fries. I would come back - I would bring my parents here. I hope to sit outside at some point to see how nice that can be. There was a good amount of people here for a Wednesday, I know on the weekends it can be fairly packed, so a weekday was a good time to go.
