    Angel Wings
    Erick L.

    Haven't had the best experiences with Thai food lately so I was hoping Won Thai would turn that around. They did not disappoint. They had Angel Wings as a special so I ordered that to go with Chicken Pad Kee Mao. The wings were crispy with a good amount of delicious stuffing. The Pad Kee Mao was the star though. So much flavor. It actually had the spice level I was looking for. Definitely recommend both dishes. With a 30 minute lunch, they prepare food quickly and is ready when they say it will be.

    Underrated and overlooked esp with the Sues Kitchen and Thai Lao recently opened in Herc. But don't sleep on this place. It's definitely not fancy, but gives off more authentic vibes with the Thai tablecloths and buddhas on the wall. Reminds me of spots my Thai Aunt used to take me too. What was a turn-off was that dinner entrees do not come with rice, you'll have to pay extra for that which is like $2+. It can add up esp if you have a big group. One of the main reasons this place has a leg up over the rest is that they serve dessert AND have options! Their fried banana and ice cream is amazing! And they also have sticky rice and mango. I know we have plenty of options in the area, but this place is just as good and should not be overlooked!

    At this point, I'm here once a week! I ate at the restaurant this time. The service was great. The server was attentive and polite. The tables were clean, and pre-set up. There were three other groups in there, so the noise level was moderate. By 2pm, the place has cleared out. Since I was there, I got to try out their spicy chili oil, which I enjoyed with my meal. It had great taste and didn't look like it was sitting in the pot for an extended period of time.

    So, so yummy!! Everything we ordered from the menu was a hit. I recc the namkao, shrimp spring roll app, eggplant chicken, drunken noodle and fried shrimp rolls. This is what we got our last visit and none of these dishes missed. For something as simple as shrimp spring rolls, there was so much flavor packed into it and the peanut sauce was so good. I'm already craving it again. Do yourself a favor and give this spot a try.

    Pad Thai rating 5/10

    I wanted some pad Thai and found this place and ordered some to go. The service was very good the lady greeted me very kind took my order. I waited less than 10 min it came out very hot. The food was very bland though and had no flavor at all it was a tad disappointing. I'd maybe give this place another try and try something else. I really liked that while I waited I looked around the place it was super clean loved how it was very simple decor and clean bathroom was very clean as well

    I moved to the Hercules/Rodeo area about two years ago and I've always seen this restaurant. Being that I'm a big Thai food fan I should've stopped by a long time ago. Well, ladies and gentlemen, I stopped by today and let me tell you it was worth the wait. Best Thai food I've had in a long time. ! The Thai tea was on point! Most importantly, my plate was phenomenal. Hands down best Pad See ew I've had in my life. I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu !

    Tofu spring rolls
    Rachel M.

    I've been pretty spoiled with some delicious Thai spots when I lived in Oakland so I wasn't too impressed with the takeout I got from this place. Tofu spring rolls were mostly lettuce and weren't memorable in taste, pad thai and pad se ew were ok but they are probably better when freshly served- the noodles stuck together and were a bit bland, chicken eggplant basil was decent but didn't have much chicken. Granted, the food had sat for a bit but even after nuking it, it didn't improve that much. I would give it another shot but maybe I'll have to dine in to experience the real deal.

    My friends and I (group of eight) decided to try out this Thai restaurant because our usual Thai restaurant didn't open for lunchtime on Saturdays. This is a really nice restaurant with reasonable prices and the portions are "just right" - not too much and not too little. The food is very tasty; there are a lot of vegetarian options available, as well as entrees including different meat choices. The atmosphere is peaceful, with soft music playing in the background and is nicely decorated. I have been here twice now (I brought my husband with me the second time) and both times the waitress was very attentive to our table, making sure we had sufficient water and asking if there was anything else we needed. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Thai food - or who wants to try it for the first time. :)

    Pumpkin Curry
    Ronald N.

    Won Thai has saved me from my lunch hunger. I needed a place to eat for lunch since I am tired of eating Chinese Food. It has been months since I had eaten from this place. I had their Pumpkin Curry. It was amazing. The amount of food that I have gotten was worth making me full. Having it order ahead of time and picking it up was good because they did following guideline during the pandemic. The woman that run it was friendly which I was amazed about.

    FriDate lunch date with the Hubbers.
    Jennifer B.

    I suggested Thai food for lunch and Hubbers was a little elated with that idea since he's been wanting to try THIS place out. We walked in during a peak lunch hour and were delighted to find a few tables open. We were seated almost immediately. Since we both previously took the time to look at their menu online prior to coming through, we had a pretty good idea what to order. We also both knew we're gonna end up with a lot of leftovers but not an issue: leftovers are bomb! A side of soup was served to us almost immediately after placing our orders in. Above decent! A good tummy warmer! SEAFOOD FRIED RICE: This came out first which irked me just a bit. (I'll explain below.) But dang it, it was delicious. (For the record, my first choice was the crab fried rice which wasn't available for the day, so I settled for this.) The one thing that separates their version of this compared to others (and I'm not sure if I should complain about this or not) is that the amount of rice wasn't portioned to the seafood: there was more seafood than rice. I had a side of white rice that went with another dish, mixed it in with this and VOILA! It's like magic! This was pretty much a meal in itself. Highly recommending! APPETIZER COMBO: This arrived next which is why I was irked that the fried rice came out first. I just have this thing that appetizers should come out FIRST before anything. By the time I got to this, I had already had the fried rice. (I know, I know, I could have held out, but I was hAngry!) But every player on this plate was pretty much as expected and comparable/similar to most Thai restaurants. Decent at best. SOFT SHELL CRAB WITH GREEN CURRY: A first run for me. I've only had soft shell crab battered and fried as is, so trying it with green curry got me curious. Verdict: I liked it, more especially with the crispy fried basil leaves. Not sure I'd order it with the curry sauce again, though... PLA NUENG MA NOA: Steamed tilapia with spicy sauce on top. They weren't kidding about making it spicy, WHOA, that was a lotta chopped chili toppings! Hubbers liked it. So did I until it got a bit too spicy for me. If you're a spicy food fiend, this is definitely a must-try! PORK CHOP: Grilled tender and juicy! This is usually hit and miss at some places where it tends to get overcooked deeming it too tough to chew. But not here. Great marinade and seasoning. Me likey! FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 3.5. VALUE: 4. PARKING: Private lot shared with other eateries. Can be full during the lunch rush. There's also parking available on the side. OVERALL: 3.75. There are a few other things I'd like to try, so yeah, I find myself coming back BUT probably not before trying out a few more Thai spots near the area...

It's so aesthetically pleasing inside (see pics and video). The owner was there when we entered, and we were able to chat about Thailand and the Lao culture. So friendly and welcoming!

We ordered chicken satay to start (comes with a nice helping of peanut sauce and cucumber salad), a pad Thai for the table with tofu, and a few lunch plates including the yellow curry, pad krapow, and spicy eggplant. Everything was packed full of flavor, and they bring a spice/sauce tray out to the table if you need to bring your dish up a notch. The lunch special comes also with a 2-piece appetizer like potstickers, egg rolls, and curry puffs which I thought was a nice touch. Plenty of shopping center adjacent (and free) parking, and wallet friendly. They serve Thai/Laos beer, wine, and a nice dessert menu. Would love to come back and try the Lao's menu including the papaya salad and larb.

The interior has a ton of things to look at including two giant murals of Laos and Thailand. In the front there is a bench for you to take pictures at in front of a wall of greenery and flowers. Stopped by this week for a late birthday celebration. The food: Recommended without reservation - Nam Khao - my favorite dish in Hercules. It's one of those dishes that has everything - chewy crunch from crispy rice, fresh crunch from lettuce wrap, herby cilantro and mint, crunch from peanuts, chewy from pork, sweet, salty, sour, umami, and slightly spicy. Somehow it all comes together in one of the tastiest, albeit messiest, wraps in this world. Tilapia Rad Prik - tilapia, fried whole until crispy and slathered in a sweet chili garlic sauce. This is a sweet and slightly tangy flavor bomb. A little bit hard to navigate the bones, but it's worth it. Recommended - Thai Papaya Salad - fresh, not too sweet or spicy. This one generally the whole family will eat. Mom and dad liked the Lao one but I think it was a bit too fishy for some of the family members. Mango with Sticky Rice - I think it's a solid version here. Rice is a little on the softer side of ideal. Red Curry - solid. Reasonable amount of meat and veggies (green beans, bell peppers, bamboo shoots) The other dishes - Thai Laos Fried Rice - missing that sear flavor and a bit on the wet side. Beef was kind of chewy, so we're probably sticking to chicken or pork next time. Rad Nah - we ordered this dish with chicken. It comes with wide rice noodles, broccoli, and carrots. This is just a bit too saucy for me. Sauce is quite sweet with nothing to balance it. I wish the noodles were stir fried a little before going into the sauce. Overall, this restaurant has some fantastic dishes that keep us coming back.

We chose a table for two by the window, and a couple of times we were kindly asked if we would like a larger table. I got the impression this is a family run restaurant, and they were very friendly.

My husband had the salmon curry and said it might be the best salmon he's ever eaten, which is high praise considering salmon is his go to dish. I tasted it and found it very succulent in a flavorful sauce. There was a good amount of perfectly cooked broccoli with it. The restaurant caters to all spice levels. I had eggplant and veggies with tofu and it was perfectly cooked. Not soaking in oil like often happens with eggplant. We saw other things on the menu we will definitely come back to try. Highly recommend! P.s. This restaurant is also listed under the name Thai Lao for some reason, so see that for further reviews.
