    My new favorite!
    Glady A.

    Came here for lunch and was not disappointed! Our server was super friendly and she told us they they were under new management and changed a lot of things. She made recommendations on what we should order and we were super impressed. We ordered: Shrimp Pad Thai: I love pad Thai and this was definitely a winner! I loved that we were able to adjust the spicy level and it came out perfect! Huge shrimp on a bed of tangy noodles with a bean sprouts and crushed peanuts! Crispy Duck curry: This was super bomb! I have never had curry and duck at the same time and they were a perfect match! Crispy, tender duck with no bones! on top of a curry and fried basil was super good! Overall, our experience was definitely satisfying. Love trying new things and this was a great try! The ambiance was also very chill and relaxing. The best part was that it was near the lake so you could walk around and just chill for a little bit. Will definitely be back for more!

    What a great find. I work in the area and I wanted Thai Food. Thai Legends is a nice quaint restaurant and tucked away from the main streets. Beautiful decor and friendly staff. Great menu selection and they offer lunch specials. I had the Panang Curry with Tofu and Sticky Rice. The curry was delicious and creamy. Im excited to go back and try different dishes.

    Hands down the BEST Thai restaurant we've been to in Las Vegas & possibly ever? We were sat down & the server was very attentive & sweet & our order came out fast! The food, drinks & dessert were outstanding! My husband & I both agreed there wasn't anything we could complain about because nothing was lacking in flavor, the presentation for every dish was absolutely beautiful as well! The restaurant was fully packed midway through our meal so I'm glad we got here around 5pm because this is not the place you want to miss out on! We will for sure be back I can't believe this was our first time because it will definitely not be our last!

    food was amazing!!!!!! will definitely be back! We got the curry and thai teas. Great service and ambiance (:

    This. Place. Is amazing. The seafood is legit cooked perfectly and seasoned so well. The staff is really attentive and quick. The food takes some time but it's worth it. Wasn't too busy on a Wednesday. Bonus points for the ambience too!

    Went on a Friday for the lunch special & it did not disappoint. It is a way from the strip for sure but worth the drive. It was nice when you walk in & seemed like a small family owned restaurant. The server had a younger woman help him and both were very nice and attentive. We got the stuffed chicken wings and a few fried appetizers. For our main I got the beef pad see ew & my husband got the yellow chicken curry. So delicious & fresh. I would love to come back :) definitely recommend!

    Came back cuz I had such a great experience the first time. The vibe is super cute, it's a quaint spot tucked away by the lakes with great ambiance, even better food, and kind attentive service. I love their green curry. Didn't get a chance to snap a pic of the mango sticky rice but that was delicious too!

    Beautiful decor.

    Great Thai food in a cozy and comfortable atmosphere. We've been here a few times for their awesome lunch specials available Mon-Sat from 11am-3pm. Each entree comes with a fresh mixed salad, egg roll, and fried wontons. Portions are very generous so we always leave with leftovers. The food is great and what I love most about Thai food is the blend of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and spicy. If you enjoy Thai ice tea they make a wonderful one. There's plenty of parking right out front and since this place is located right on the water make sure to stop by the lake on your way out and say hello to all the local ducks and birds.

    Pad Kra Pow, Ground Pork (4 stars)
    Phi N.

    Decided to try this restaurant because we really like their oyster bar & grill location in henderson. We split the tom yum soup and the lunch special pad kra pow ground pork with a salad, highest level of spice on both. The salad was nice and light, the tom yum hit the spot, and the pad kra pow was delicious. There was a decent kick to it, but still needed to add the dry spice and chili peppers in fish sauce. -solid spice rack

    My very first visit to Weera Thai Restaurant was within Shanghai Plaza Las Vegas. I loved it so…read moremuch I had to check out their other locations. I came here with both my daughters. Emmie was our server. She was impeccable with her friendliness and amazing service. Her attention and care throughout our dining was top-notch. Thank you Emmie! Menu options were abundant. Despite of the selections, we usually go with our go-tos. We couldn't ask for a better meal. Everything was delish with a few exceptions. 1. Panang Curry lunch special that comes with soup, salad, wonton, and rice - just okay 2. Baa Mee Hang - tasty, but portions were small 3. Papaya Salad with shrimp - comes with 4 huge shrimps, wished it came with 6 huge shrimps 4. Pad Thai with chicken - one of the best dishes! SO GOOD!! 5. Pad Woon Sen with chicken - I originally asked for seafood, but got chicken instead which was fine. Glass noodles became mushy towards the end. They need to use a different brand of glass noodles that's a bit firmer. 6. Thai Iced Tea - PERFECT! Must get every time. 7. Thai Iced Coffee - good, not too sweet 8. Coconut Cream Ice Cream - delectable dessert to end our meal Bill came and it was a whopping $140+ before tip. After tip, it was $170.00 out the door. Yes, big delicious meals come with a price! It's always well worth it. Highly recommend Weera Thai!

    My husband and I stopped by on 05/22 to have dinner. I had seen a video online the day before and…read morewhen I saw the food I knew we had to stop in! Let me tell you the food was even better than we imagined! I ordered a passion fruit iced tea to start and it was so delicious. I knew if I ordered one more I would've ordered them until closing time haha The service was great and the woman was extremely sweet when taking our order. The restaurant is very small and quiet, which we enjoyed because it felt like being in someone's home for dinner. There's a nice cabinet in the back with some family pictures and that was a genuine touch in my opinion. The true star of the show, however, were our chefs choice dishes. I ordered the crab curry noodles (Khao Soi) and my husband ordered beef brisket panang curry. We couldn't agree on who had the better dish because they were both so incredible. Mine was spicy, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Large amount of crab was included on top of how large the dish was fo begin with. Enough for me to take home and enjoy the next day. My husband's food beef was cooked to absolute perfection. The meat melted with each bite, we couldn't believe how tender it was. If you've debated on eating here, do it and don't hesitate! We have already selected our next meals for our second visit. Can't wait to come back and try more. I think we found our new favorite spot!

Food: $13.95 PAD Thai with Chicken spicy level $13.95 Thai Basil The pad thai was a bit spicy even though I love a little bit of spice. Level 2 shouldn't have been this hot. Even my friend thought so. The Thai Basil was delicious. Love the flavors and vegetables. Very good if you're looking for a healthy option. Both meals came with a green salad, fried egg roll and thai tea. What a deal. I'll definitely return again.
