Good food, pleasant environment, excellent service. The shrimp ramen was okay (I liked the presentation better than the taste), but the yellow curry was savory and delicious. However, I think my favorite was the tempura brussel sprouts. Perfectly crispy with a light batter and just the right seasoning. This made a really nice place for lunch. I would certainly eat here again next time I'm in the area. read more

Food is the Key to the 5 stars. I really enjoyed Yellow Curry; it was a large portion. It's not too spicy and has some Veggies that aren't overcooked; the chicken was tender and it had three Jumbo shrimp. Tiger roll is 4 fried spring rolls with crab and cream cheese I think, like an improved crab Rangoon. The Brussels sprouts are good, I wish that had a bit more spice or flavor. My wife had the Ramen with steak, and I enjoyed a few slices of steak (like super quality roast beef). The service is a little slow if you're there on a weekend. The Ambiance is nice, but not overly done. You can go in your scrubby clothes. No problem. read more

We love this place, we eat here regularly. The service is always great, they're always super fast, and the pricing is always fair. And the food, you can't beat it. She's a regular with the chicken ramen, and u always go for the tofu pad Thai. The interior is beautiful, and has a super casual vibe to it! read more

Fantastic food and service! We will stop there anytime we drive by. I had the Pad Thai the spice was fantastic

I just visited the area and wanted Asian food and found this spot. The food was decent and I really enjoyed the Thai coffee a lot. However, it was a little longer wait for the food. But the staff was really nice and got us free candy at the end as well! read more

My kids had been hinting that they wanted ramen so we decided to take them out on this cold day for this treat. We were greeted upon entry and we got there around 30 minutes before they were going to close before reopening for the evening crowd. We were quickly seated and our orders taken. The resteraunt wasn't packed but there was a nice amount of people dining in and a lot coming in and pick up. It was clean. We received our food quickly and the soup for me hit the spot, as mentioned it was cold out and it wanted me up. It wasn't the best ramen that I've had but it was really good. Everything tasted fresh, from the potstickers to the dragon rolls. I tried my husbands rice order and it was ok- you had to season with soy sauce or to your liking. I am use to going to resteraunts that season the food before getting it and not having to season it myself as much. We got decent sized portions for the price, and had food to bring home. We were all pleased overall. read more

First time trying authentic ramen and we loved it. Staff was super nice and service was fast. Portions were big and everything came out really hot and flavorful. We got the tiger rolls, pork belly ramen, and beef ramen--no complaints at all. Would definitely come back. read more

How do you review a place that is never open and that will not answer their telephone for pick up orders? Here is the story. My family and I went there one afternoon before close, about 30mins and when we arrived, two women went over to the door to lock it and proceeded to not tell us that they were closing. It was very rude, at least have the courtesy to tell the customer if you are closed. We gave the restaurant another chance on Saturday afternoon. I called at 1:50pm for a pick-up order and there was no answer. I called three more times and no one picked up. Yes, they could have been busy, but usually restaurants will answer and say to hold a moment. They could have answered and said they weren't taking pick-up orders. Unfortunately, I shall not be trying to eat here again. Not worth the headache. read more

We stopped here on a whim during a trip and I'm so glad we did. It is very clean with very friendly staff. The food was excellent- hot, fresh and flavorful. I might have to drive 6 hours again for the Tom Kha read more

Delicious! I will be back next time I'm in Conway. I got the spicy basil with vegetables. Incredibly flavorful - It was honestly one of the best thai dishes I've had in a restaurant and the serving size was generous too. read more

Excellent Thai in Arkansas. Spiced wonderfully and served quickly. The young lady serving was super and super friendly. All things about this place is 5 star. read more

If you're in the mood for Ramen or Thai, step into this kitschy but but tastefully decorated spot in the west side of Conway. My wife and I stopped in for lunch just before noon and got a table right away. We ordered and sipped on water while checking out the fish tank, Hello Kitty figurines and other Kawaii nicknacks along the shelves behind the register and the walls. I had the Singapore BBQ pork ramen and my wife had the Tom Kha soup with chicken. My ramen was generously laden with tender pork, bok choy, peas, corn, noodles, broth and a hard boiled egg. Homemade chili oil gave it just the right amount of extra kick. My wife's soup has all the trademark flavors of the famous Thai soup including, galangal, lemongrass, kafir line leaf and had plenty of straw mushrooms and chicken to make the bowl meal-worthy. I can't wait to come back and try more of their ramen choices and noodle entrees like Pad Thai! read more

Ambience: Quaint space with a laid back vibe. Loved the hanging plants and figurines near the register. Service: Our waitress wasn't too talkative but she wasn't rude either. The lady that sat us and and the lady that took my check were warm. Food: I ordered the Tempura Shrimp Ramen and Taro Milk Tea (w/tapioca). The ramen was both flavorful and fulfilling. The portions were generous, I got a to go bowl to take the rest of the ramen home. The tempura shrimps were large and scrumptious. The Taro Tea was good, only wish I had a different boba. Next, time I will inquire if they have other boba options because I will definitely be going back when I visit Conway again. read more

My husband and I love this place! We normally get the Panang curry which is delicious, with the tempora brussel sprouts, which is so good and comes with a perfect sauce. This last time we got their hot wings were not too hot but really great flavo read more

Delicious Ramen!! I love the service and quality of food. Try everything!! It is a gem! I always have leftovers to take home.

I have been here before. It was my second time, but this time we ate in the restaurant. The appetizers were hot and quick. Very tasty and crispy - egg rolls and won tons. We will make this a usual stop when we visit my son at Hendrix. read more

Food was pretty poor compared to others we've been to. Also too busy with not enough help.

After such a scary tornado hit NLR, I ended up evacuating my place and staying in Conway at a friends. She lived about 5 minutes from Xen Thai & Ramen--a cute little spot nestled in a large shopping center. When we walked in the doors, I noticed the place was packed but not too packed for a Friday evening. The wait was fairly short and there was comfortable seating near the door. Once seated, our waitress was very inviting, friendly and engaging. I appreciated her warmth considering we'd had such a tough day already. She explained their collection of juice drinks and teas. I highly recommend the passion fruit juice and boba. It felt light & refreshing. Next, we ordered the tempura Brussel sprouts. Can you say love at first bite? This appetizer was a fun and yummy twist on the tempura vegetable and Brussel sprout trends. I couldn't get enough! Finally, we ordered our entrees--duck ramen & spicy basil fried rice with shrimp. I love that both dishes were packed with characteristic Thai flavors & spices. This made my tastebuds very happy and brought me comfort--Thai style. Another waitress came by with a highly recommended Thai chili oil & dried peppers to add to the ramen. This took the ramen to a whole new level! The food and service were excellent! Xen Thai made service a team effort and I like that. I'd love to come back again bc this is hands down the best Thai food I have had in the central Arkansas area. read more

We decided on this little place based on the yelp reviews and we were so happy we did. There was quite a rush when we got there for lunch but our food was hot, fast and delish! Their drinks are worth stopping in for too if you're in a hurry. They do offer take out. We loved our lunch and will definitely go back! read more

We had a great lunch here. The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. We will definitely go back.

Recommend! Kidney disease friendly!!Chronic kidney disease usually keeps me from eating ramen. I typically ask if a restaurant can prepare something low sodium and ramen is usually very salty. I asked and they happily prepared a tasty low sodium shrimp tempura ramen. I was surprised! The noodles were pretty basic but I was willing to put that aside due to the fact that I could actually eat ramen in a restaurant!!? Yay! My family also got chicken fried rice which they really liked as well. The Thai iced tea was delicious too. The staff was attentive, clearly helpful with my unusual request to limit salt and courteous. Would recommend! read more

Wonderful food, fantastic people here! We love it and order it around 1x per week and it never fails!

If they expect this place to take off as a ramen spot...they are going to have to be a little more authentic. Obvious the noodles are packaged, not real ramen made from scratch which in turn gave my wife and I stomach aches. My wife got chicken ramen, and it was so bland and tasteless. The best part were the service and the appetizers. Not sure if management changed its recipe, but they should really focus on a real authentic broth and noodle. It was mediocre at best. If you want the real and authentic stuff, Aji is worth the drive to LR 10 times out of 10. read more

So we ordered take out from here. Honestly after eating the food, i don't know why we waited so long. The food was so good. I wish i would have taken pictures but I didn't unfortunately. Appetizers pot stickers and wonton fried shrimp. Both were excellent but I think the pot stickers might be the best in conway. We went family style on dinner. Shrimp spicy basil and rice Shrimp drunken noodles Pork belly ramen. All three were really good. I have to say the spicy basil with shrimp was my favorite. But man even with the take out the food was well seasoned and very tasty. We can't wait to go eat there or order take out again. read more

Ya'll, don't sleep on this restaurant! This has become one of my favorites in Conway. My husband and I get take-out at least once a week and the food is consistently fresh and delicious. I LOVE the Panang Chicken Curry- it's the perfect amount of sweet and spicy. My husband is a fan of the chicken fried rice. Do yourself a favor and get the tempura brussel sprouts as an app *chef's kiss*. read more

This is my go to places for lunch and has one of my favorite comfort foods: ramen! They are one of the few places that has actual ramen and it tastes pretty good. It's really nice on a cold day or if you aren't wanting something super heavy. I've tried the drunken noodles as well , which were really good. Every now and then me and friends will get the donuts and condensed milk as a treat. But i can not leave this place without ordering my Thai tea with boba! It's the most similar tasting boba tea in Conway to the tea i got in Asia! It's not overly sweet (which i really appreciate) but still has good flavor and texture. read more
