Growing up in Allen there has never been any good Thai food in this area and now there is a family owned one walking distance from our house! As a Thai person myself this place did not disappoint. We started off with a small cup of the Tom Ka shrimp, to which I was pleasantly surprised with the 5 large shrimp in our bowl. We also had the pork ribs and the fried tofu which my 5 year old daughter demolished them both! For entrees we ordered the pad kee mow which packed lots of flavor and the crab fried rice had a good amount of real crab meat! Last but not least we had to end our amazing meal with sticky rice and mango. We love the small hole in the wall family feel but what made it even better was the friendly service. You can certainly count us on being regulars here! read more

Ordered from here twice now for takeout and the food is fresh and absolutely delicious. The heat numbers are no joke though normally we order a 3 spicy and 3 was a little on the hot side for me so I ordered a 2 next time and it was still spicy enough-absolutely delicious and very friendly people. They were extremely busy on Saturday night and had to wait a little bit longer than expected, but they handled everything with Grace and I don't have enough to say about how wonderful everything is. Inside is VERY CLEAN!!! Pretty good portions! So far we have had: 1) pork tiny egg rolls 2) shrimp rolls 3) red curry 4) yellow curry 5) beef lo mein 6) basil chicken 7) jasmine rice 8) sticky rice 9) fried rice ALL DELICIOUS WITH NOTHING LEFT OVER!!! read more

Friendly service and delicious food. Between the 3 of us we had a red curry, noodles, and a rice dish. All were great! read more

Oh no... this place is starting to drop. They take longer to get food out and the quality isn't what it was. The pho is inconsistent... sometimes missing basil, jalapeños, less noodles. I have hopes this is temporary. read more

Thus far, we have only gotten takeout and not eaten inside, but everything we have ever ordered is delicious and the portions are good sized for the money. read more

Great food and service, they were so busy and our food still got out pretty quickly! Also restrooms were exceptionally clean!

Love the food and service here. I've tried several things and everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. My fried chicken dumplings was cooked perfectly to a crisp. The cashew chicken and the ginger delight was tasty. Just enough sauce and crunchy veggies to make this delish delightful! I even asked to mix their Curry rice with their Pineapple fried rice and they were happy to make that happen. I do like curry powder in my fried rice. They really didn't bat an eyelash at it and told me that they have it in their system now and I can order it anytime I want. The owners are super nice and they've been very accommodating. They are my favorite go-to for flavor. read more

The food was fresh and delicious! The service was quick and he was very helpful! The restaurant is clean. I would definitely come here again!! read more

This is a wonderful Thai restaurant in a bit of an odd location. We tried crab cheese wontons and Tom Kha soup to start. The wontons were ok, like triangles with thin dough. The soup was amazing, very flavorful. The pad Thai was great, nice flavor but what stood out was how well the noodles were cooked. And everyone's favorite dish was the herb chicken fried rice. Wow! The chicken has a super thin and crispy coating with crispy basil on top. And there is a spicy chili sauce on the side. Then we had the sticky rice with coconut ice cream and it was also a hit. All that and the staff was so nice and friendly. read more

Great food and wonderful service. Love the mom and pop places and I would recommend this place to anyone!

New favorite Thai restaurant! Helpful staff, fresh and amazing food. Ordered dine in and takeout and both were good experiences

The best Thai food in Allen/McKinney. Try the herbal chicken fried rice, moo ping, or pad Thai. My Thai wife and I come here all the time, and she's picky about Thai food. read more

Intent on trying an highly recommended new restaurant, I was wry pleased with the quality of the food and the attentive service.

Went here with a party of 5 adults, 2 kids, and a baby in a high chair. Food was fresh and delicious with good portions and 2 out of 3 kids loved it (one is very picky)! We live close by and agreed this is definitely our new Thai spot. We're not new to Thai food either coming from both the East and West Coast and this place tasted authentic rather than some fusion Thai places around here. Would highly recommend. Only thing is there's not much seating, but don't let they deter you. Wait a little or get it to go! read more

I fly to Thailand on business yearly so I thought I try a new Thai place. Ordered two Thai fried rice. Small portions with limited meat and veggies. Price not worth the amount you get. The fried rice had little flavor with a little too much oil. read more

We have enjoyed several dinners here since they opened. Food is great and prices are very reasonable. Friendly staff and great location for us. read more

Wonderful Thai food and hospitality! We ordered a Thai hot papaya salad, which was perfectly spicy and delicious, shrimp pad Thai, and herb chicken fried rice. We really loved how crispy the chicken and basil were on the rice! Would definitely come back and try their curries next time we're in town. read more

New favorite Thai/Lao restaurant and I'm so happy it's close to home. I've ordered take out 4 times in their first month of opening, and dined-in once, and quality of the food is consistent and delicious. As a Lao American, I can vouch for the authenticity of the food. I've tried: Lao sausage Pad Thai Pineapple Fried Rice Papaya Salad Lao Style Herbal Chicken Fried Rice Crispy Pork Egg Rolls Every dish was yummy! I'm still trying to gauge their spicy levels. I tried Papaya Salad level 5 spicy and didn't feel it was more than a level 2. Of course spice is subjective, but I've had level 5 at other Thai/Lao restaurants which made my eyes water (in a good way). I shared this feedback with the waitress/owner(?) and she was happy to add more spice next time for me. Staff is so friendly and polite! Please keep this gem in Allen! read more

So happy to have a Thai and Lao option this close to home. Service is quick and food is delicious

We discovered this great Thai place several months ago. We had a party of 8 the first time and all enjoyed their meals, which ranged from curry to Pad Thai. I had Thai wen soon, it was great. Service was good. There are 5 heat selections which let everyone chose what tasted best. A month later we were back again with 5 diners. I had the pineapple chicken fried rice heat #3. Very good, tasty not too hot. Another diner had grilled Salmon teriyaki and Broccolli. Another had pineapple curry. One reason we like this place is it is quiet and we could talk to every one at the table. Our most recent trip Oct.5, 2025 we again had 5 diners. Because all had dined there before it was an easy decision come back.our meals ranged from lomain. to Red Curry. All agreed that they have never had unsatisfactory meal there. Service has been great each visit even with different servers each time. This is our go to for Thai food when in the Allen, Tx area. Oh and 4 members of the group are quite taken with ice cream macaroons, multiple flavors. I have the sweet rice and when I have dessert that is my choice. We will be back! No one likes prices at restaurants these days and the entrees here are about $17, but the food is worth it here. read more

A new Thai restaurant that needs to be known about, An excellent menu with way more choices that can be easily picked. Noodles, rices, meats, spice levels in abundance. If you are looking for a new Thai restaurant, give it a try, you won't be disappointed. The service is top-notch, the ambiance is satisfactory. Spread the word. read more

Services was good! I was getting takeout so the ambiance seemed okay for what I briefly experienced. The food, uh it was okay, but not sure I would go back. The portions were barely a single serving in comparison to other establishments in the similar restaurant type. The flavor was average. The only thing they got right was the spice ! It s was on point. Being new I could chalk it up to getting started, but of the game isn't upped then they won't survive in this neighborhood. Good luck! read more

Best customer service ever I showed up late and they still made. My food was super friendly

I ordered three dishes to go from Thai Papaya-- PAD THAI Noodles, LOMAIN Chicken, and MIX VEGGIE with Chicken. All three dishes were tasty. My husband and son who can be picky eaters, both happily ate their meals and said they'd order this again! The portions were just right. I felt full, with a couple of bites left over. Food preparation was about 15 minutes and my order was ready when I arrived to pick it up. The gentleman handed me my food and thanked me for my business. I will be going back again. Welcome to the neighborhood! It's nice to have a non-chain restaurant nearby. read more
