I've been around Austin so long I remember Satay was the only Thai place around! Then there's Thai Kitchen where I've eaten for over 36 years. Then there's my newest favorite Thai Cuisine by my house... their tofu and veggies Pad Thai is next level and it's been a regular for our family for a li g time. Ok so then my daughter told me about the Pad Thai at Weladee, a trailer at a cute little food park on Hamilton Ln off North 183 and now I'm 100% HOOOOOOOKED! They've ruined me and I don't see how I can ever go back to the others!!! The sweet young lady that runs the place knows her stuff and works her butt off provide the best quality authentic Pad Thai available. They have limited hours and a limited specialty menu... but it's worth the wait and well worth the price. Just GO!!! I had it for dinner tonight and can't wait to beat up the leftovers tomorrow. It's that good! read more

I think we are officially obsessed with food trucks. Hamilton Park food trucks are our favorites. We usually Yelp what we want to eat. Lately, our top rated Yelp reviews are with food trucks. Today we were in the mood for Pad Thai, which brought us to Weladee Thai Kitchen. Weladee means "good times" in Thai. Interestingly, Weladee Thai kitchen has three entrees Pad Thai,Tom Kha and Pad Ka Pro. Pina, the owner, said she used to have 5 menu items but all she can handle currently is 3. She is the only one working in the food truck. Pina was super friendly and personable. Now, for the Pad Thai...the box felt very heavy. It was enough Pad Thai in the box to feed 3 hungry people. The noodles were fresh, soft and flavored well. There were big chunks of chicken in the Pad Thai and it was extra tender. The meal was at the perfect spice level. The food court tables had no visitors. Today the temperature is 95 degrees, i. e, sizzling hot vibe. read more

Best Tom Kha that I've had in Texas!! Full of flavor and good ingredients. I also liked the pad ka prow chicken, it's quite spicy and comes with an amazing friend egg. It's located in an outdoor food truck park - the place is clean and pretty well maintained. read more

The Tom Kha soup is to die for! Amazing. She is also very nice. High quality food with a smile.

Really good Thai cuisine in a relaxed food truck park off Jollyville Road near the Arboretum. The owner, Pina, is a one-woman operation; I called my order in and it was ready when I picked it up 20 minutes later. There were only three mains available on the menu when I stopped by, but they're done authentically and portions are more than ample. The pad thai is exemplary (so good I didn't stop to take a photo) and you get service with a smile. read more

I come here for my spicy fix and the owner, Pina, always greets me with a smile and forgives me when I put in the occasional late order. I've watched this place kinda blow up over the last year or so. Get your orders in early because it's no longer a secret Thai spot on an obscure street. Pina brings the spice and a positive attitude every time I visit. Food-wise, it's a simple menu with quality ingredients. When I ask for Thai spicy, I actually get Thai spicy (after a fair warning from pina). Most Thai spots will look at me and assume I don't really want the smoke or don't know what Thai spicy is. Not here. read more

The food truck was easy to find and parking was available. The lady that makes the food was very pleasant. I ordered the pad Thai with chicken and a Thai tea. Both were excellent! Fresh ingredients and generous portions! read more

The most authentic Thai food place in Austin! My family likes to go to Thailand for vocation and when we don't have time to go we come here to fulfill our Thai food cravings. Friendly service, cheap food and large portion. We have tried everything they have to offer, all are incredibly delicious and pretty large portion for the price we pay. We could definitely come back to try more specials like mango stick rice. read more

Food On point, so much flavor in the Pad Thai. From the fresh cilantro to the sauce to the cook on the chicken! Went with the mild to be on the safe side and I definitely could've went medium. Service Everything is cooked to order, but I read other reviews that said to call and order and that is a good choice. Food was ready in 20mins exactly. She's running this food truck by herself and she is easy to talk to. Can tell she's enjoying life. Ambiance Really quiet area of Austin with no real traffic as it's on a road off Jollyville. read more

I'd like to start by mentioning that the cashier was very friendly. Great customer service. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with my food especially in light of the high ratings. I had the pad see ew with chicken. My food was super bland and lacked flavor. Also, the noodles were super dry and were not saucy at all unlike most pad see ew dishes I've tried from other red. I didn't enjoy the entree at all. The best item I had was the mango sticky rice. The mango sticky rice was incredibly delicious. The mango was very fresh and the dessert had the perfect sweetness level. Overall, I don't think I'd visit again anytime soon to buy another entree but I'd buy the mango sticky rice again. read more

Blown away with this Thai spot! The woman working was not only welcoming and incredibly kind, but she made our dish authentically spicy per request and it came out AMAZING! So great to know that there is an Thai place that serves food that tastes fresh and authentic instead of greasy and heavy. We were able to sit outside in the shade and enjoy such a great meal. We got her pad Thai and will be back to try everything else! read more

So glad someone whispered this spot in my ear, I hit up Weladee over the weekend and goodness, this is what Austin needs! Everything I tried was super fresh and had that authentic, made from love vibe. You won't be disappointed read more

Back from Thailand, this food is better than ever. I could not believe the Pad Thai was even better than I remember. Thai tea must be a big seller. I like Green Curry and Tom Ka soup the best. Now in a good park with lots of great food offerings. read more

I honestly didn't know this food truck park existed, so thank you Yelp for not only steering me to Weladee but also introducing me to the Hamilton Food Park. For those visiting for the first time, it is easy to pass the street to turn on so be on the lookout for the sign that says "Thai Food and Mexican Food" and then turn! Weladee is the brightly colored teal food truck, so you can't miss it! As for the food selection, it isn't the largest so I decided to order one of everything, and sadly the thing I was craving most, the Mango Sticky Rice was not currently in season. However it looks like they have some rotating food choices, and during this visit we ordered the Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Pad Ka Prow and the Som Tum Thai (Papaya Salad). As for proteins, chicken and tofu are included in the price of the noodle dishes, or you can add beef for an additional $2, fermented crab can also be added to the Papaya Salad for $2. The thing I liked most about this place is how everything came out fresh and pretty tasty. Out of the two noodles, I actually preferred the Pad Thai as the Pad See Ew's noodles were a bit bunched and not as flavorful. On the flip side, the Pad Ka Prow was packed full of flavor and topped with a delicious fried egg. I also liked the addition of the chicharron to the Papaya Salad which is something I haven't seen before, but I enjoyed the added textural crunch which went great with the sweet, acidic, and spicy profile. If you find yourself looking for some Thai food around the Research area don't be shy to try Weladee! The whole food truck park is super cute, and the owner is nice and helpful, she actually helped me pick out which protein and spice levels to choose for each dish! Oh, and speaking of spice, we opted for mostly mild and medium, and I could definitely feel a bit of heat with the medium but it wasn't overbearing. I am looking forward to my next visit, and hope that the Mango Sticky Rice will be available! Also, for those asking, credit card is accepted! read more

Great little food truck that has all the best Thai staples done really well! I've tried them all now on my few visits they're all hits. I'd say the Pad Thai and Mango Sticky Rice are the ones that especially really make excited to keep coming back. Good portions made really well, friendly owner and a nice atmosphere to make use of the great weather! Also ALL dishes are gluten-free, which is a huge plus for a celiac like myself read more

Weladee Thai Kitchen - Pad See Ew - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

During the Electrical Debacle of 2023 we needed dinner. No electricity so we had to find a restaurant open. We found a food truck serving authentic Thai street food near our home so we were excited. We knew we could order on a food delivery app but some places on the Internet implied more choices than the delivery app so we went to see for ourselves. On that day they had four entrees and a salad available, plus water, Thai tea, and coconut water. When we arrived there were a few people waiting but mostly we were alone. We placed our orders and Pina let us know it would be a wait. She alone was taking the orders, doing the cooking and prep, and boxing the entrees. We sat in our car to wait and ten or so people came up and got their (presumably ordered ahead) meals. We took this popularity as a good sign. During the 45 minutes or so we waited there were the most mouth watering smells coming from the truck. I was hungry already but the scents let me know I was in for an experience. She signaled our food was ready and we picked it up. She kept apologizing for how long it took, recommending we order ahead on the app (which I recommend for future trips, but going to the truck, the first time lets me feel more like I know what I'm getting). She smiled and engaged us in some friendly banter, asked our names (winning over my introverted heart) and said she hoped to see us again. She also told me she didn't make mine spicy, but had taped a packet of red pepper seeds to add spice if I needed it. When we got home and passed out the food we could hear munching in the dark (no power, remember) and happy food sighs. The food was spicy enough to make us all sweat a bit but also had a distinctive sweetness to it. (Please note - I did not add the extra pepper seeds) My Pad See Ew with tofu had noodles that were chewy and delicious. Everyone agreed this was excellent Thai food and we all enjoyed it. We will definitely be back to support this small business, but also... you should have tasted this stuff!! In fact, go do that. Right now! Be sure to buy a tall can of roasted coconut juice or a Thai tea. You'll need it. read more

Amazing food served up by the sweetest people! Tends to be on the spicy side but she will modify as needed. I've tried it all and it's delicious. Can't go wrong! read more

I went here a few weeks ago, and the owner was so nice. I don't normally order pad thai, but this was hands down one of the best pad thais i've ever ordered. I would definitely recommend visiting here, and I cannot stress how sweet the owner was. read more

Very friendly service and huge portions! Everything tasted great, we ordered the pad Thai and pad kra prao both at a medium spice, they were both tasty and a true medium spice. Also got the Thai tea, it was very sweet but went nicely with the spicy food, would recommend! read more

This little food truck has the BEST Thai food in austin. The menu is small and the hours are limited but please don't let that deter you. Everything on the menu is excellent. I've tried the Pad See Ew, Tom Kha, Papaya Salad, and Pad Thai. Definitely call to order instead of DoorDash pick up because I find the portion sizes are better. Expect a 20 min wait or more for larger orders. She is generous with the portion size and you will have enough for two meals. I only take out because I don't prefer to eat outside, but the little food truck area is nice and clean. The owner is so so sweet! Oh and the Thai tea is amazing! Everything is delicious 10/10. Also the spice level is no joke, I get medium and it's the perfect kick. I've gotten Thai Hot and it's eye watering so be prepared lol. You can always get a lower spice level and ask for Thai dried chile flakes! They are open Wednesday-Sat! read more

Outstanding food and a wonderful owner/operator who always puts a smile on my face! Hours are a little quirky but, hey, it's a small operation. read more

This Thai place is one of the best in Austin! The food is so flavorful and far surpasses the quality of any nearby Thai restaurant. Not to mention the owner is one of the nicest ladies! She is super sweet and cares a lot about delivering high quality, nutritious, authentic food to her customers. Highly recommend a visit! read more

Love this place! She is so friendly and cooks everything herself and so fresh and authentic! Love the pad Thai and mango sticky rice and also the pad ka prow! She is not playing around with the spice so definitely be prepared or ask for mild lol the papaya salad is also delicious!!! Great food truck spot - super close to my apartment so I love it. Thai tea is amazing too read more

Fantastic thai food. Best pad thai in Austin and it's not even close. We had it delivered, but we plan on making a point to visit in person for our next order. The portions were generous, flavors equally so. read more

Still easily my #1 Thai food take out in all of Austin! I am seriously addicted to her food. My boyfriend, sister, and I have consistently been coming here for over a year now. Tonight she gave us an extra small box of pad ka prow (it was still plenty of food for one whole serving) and also a free Thai tea since she is leaving for vacation until the new year. She is always so sweet and going above and beyond for her loyal customers- it isn't unordinary that she throws in freebies every once in a while. Her food is always so beautiful and made fresh to eat. She truly brings the most authentic flavors of Thailand to Austin. I will never go anywhere else! read more

If you want good, no GREAT Thai food, look no further. Get the papaya salad Thai hot if you can handle the heat!

OMG!!! Had the Chicken Pad Ka Prow today...This absolutely out of this world!!! I am a huge Pad Ka Prow fan and had this dish at many respected Thai restaurants from Coast to Coast. Weladee made to this to absolute perfection...in my opinion. I will only get this dish here! read more

The owner was really sweet and the food was absolutely delicious! I had the green curry with veggies and it was SO GOOD and so fresh! 10/10 recommend! Can't wait to go back and try some more ! read more

I ordered the pad see ew with chicken not spicy, but it was way too spicy for me. Pina said it was the black pepper. The chicken pad Thai wasn't spicy at all, so I was very surprised the pad see ew was inedible for me. I'll just give it to my husband. Pina said to let her know next time (even though I already said not spicy), but I doubt I'll return. read more

Came here for the quick lunch. I was debating between the Pad Thai and the Pad See Ew but ended up going with the Chicken Pad See Ew on the owners recommendation. I originally asked for medium spice but she warned that she makes it pretty spicy so I opted for mild. The food was ready within 5 minutes and she included an extra spice packet in case I wasn't happy with the spice. WOW! This was truly some of the best pad see ew I have ever had. The veggie/chicken to noodle ratio was perfect. Super flavorful, not too sweet, and just the right amount of spice (I would say their mild is equivalent to most other restaurants mediums). I can't wait to come back and try the Pad Thai! read more

Delicious Thai food! I ordered the Pad See Ew with tofu (you can choose to be vegetarian, and not include the fish sauce, but I'm pescatarian and thus ok with the fish sauce). What distinguishes this Pad See Ew from others that I've had is that the fish sauce flavor is definitely prevalent. I like fish sauce so I did like it, but it's definitely a different flavor than the more heavier/umami pad see ew that's found at other places. I got the mild, which was the perfect light burn for me. If I had to extrapolate, a medium spiciness would prob have me reach for a glass of milk. There was definitely an abundance of tofu, maybe more than what I see elsewhere. Definitely the best Thai food in the Arboretum area for me so I'll prob be coming back! read more

What an amazing authentic Thai food truck! The food is made fresh so expect a wait if you don't do a call ahead order, but it's so worth the wait. The pad Thai is delicious and the Pad Kra Pow is almost as good. The noodles are so fresh and good she must make them herself. (Her = Pina, the owner) maybe the Pad Thai being better because I like Pad Thai more though. Either way, you can't go wrong. The Mango Sticky rice for dessert is an absolute must!!! The best I've ever had!!! Can't wait til my next meal there. read more

Weladee Thai Kitchen - Pad Thai and Thai Tea - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

I love Thai food, and after being in Austin for over a decade, all the usual standby Thai restaurants in town have just lost their luster after continual disappointments - their quality is never really consistent, and honestly Titayas has never been the same for me post-remodel. What makes Thai a magical cuisine is not only balance of powerful in-your-face flavors, but freshness. If it's not fresh, why bother? The only staple I continue to visit is Dee Dee, which is another fantastic 5 star Thai experience on the south side of town. She specializes in northern Thai food, and sometimes a girl just needs some pad see ew. Enter Weladee - generous portions, some key Thai menu appearances (pad Thai, pad see ew, and ka prao), and most importantly, SO FRESH! You can tell there's a lot of love, care, and experience in the dishes. I tried everything on the menu (hello lunch tomorrow) - and they were all great. I got mild just so I could really taste each dish, but next time I would feel comfortable going up to the medium level. I live in south central Austin and I would be willing to make the drive to eat here again, or pay extra for the longer delivery drive! read more

Fresh, authentic Thai food served by a genuine, kind proprietor! Just a consistently great experience from this little truck. Tom Kha makes a solid meal by itself with rice on the side, and the pad thai is fresh and a filling portion. The only problem I run into is ordering too much food. read more

Hands down the best pad thai Ive had in Austin. Perfectly seasoned and the little pepper packet to add heat is a nice touch :)

Hidden gem in the food park! Highly recommend the Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Pad Ka Prao, and ESPECIALLY the mango sticky rice here when chef Pina makes it (when in season). Also best & possibly the spiciest papaya salad (in a good way) in whole of Austin - will be quite the challenge even for folks with high spice tolerance. Introduced many of my friends here and they all loved it and came back for more. Highly recommend calling in to order before you arrive as the peak hour rush can get super busy. read more
