Enjoyed a meal here with my daughter. The food is well-seasoned and prepared. We asked about Level 3 spice and were encouraged to choose Level 2 and get the ghost pepper on the side. The noodles (Pad See Ew) had absorbed enough spice it didn’t need any more. But with the Bangkok red curry with Duck—which was our favorite—we added a bit more spice. Very tasty.
Staff served us as a team (I’m guessing they split the tips). They got busy and we needed to flag them down to get a second portion of rice. But everything was SO fast, tasty, efficient, fresh. I recommend this for a simple evening out for solidly good Thai food. -
Randomly stumbled upon this place last night as we happened to be in the area and we loved it! We were seated right away, had friendly service, place was clean and decorated and food was delicious! Definitely want to come back and try more things!

First and foremost, this restaurant can make Thai dishes including curries without fish sauce and oyster sauce so that they're truly vegetarian.
A lot of people are complaining about the high spice levels and these reviews, but I did not find them any different from most other Thai restaurants. The mild was mild and the medium was reasonably medium. That being said, I was not a fan of the Thai basil sauce with their Bangkok 54 sauce. For whatever reason, I couldn't really taste the basil component of it.
The crispy tofu was very good and so were the fresh spring rolls. I would say even the green curry that we ordered was extremely flavorful, though it turned out to be a bit sweet; maybe that was because we asked for it to be mild? So be wary of it. I would also say that the Thai iced tea was a bit too mild in flavor for my taste.
There is a reasonable amount of outdoor seating here and the people that work here are accommodating. -
My boyfriend and I went to their new location in Chapel Hill on August 31, 2024. This place was recommended to me by a co worker.
Our server, Vera, was very knowledgeable and pleasant.
For our appetizer, we split the Crisy Frief Tofu. with sauce. The appetizer was very delicious and came out piping hot. The presentation was great too. I was actually able to use the chopsticks with the appetizer and some with my entree!! 😊
I ordered the Massaman Curry with Fried Tofu in a coconut milk (cream sauce ?) which included potatoes, onions, cashews and other spices. I told our server I don’t eat as spicy, so she recommended to order the dish as it comes (mild).
She was right on point. I brought a little home for my mom since she likes Massaman curry, but she found it a little sweet because it was ordered as mild which was perfect for me. My mom still liked it. The dish comes with white rice.
My boyfriend got the tofu pad Thai which normally comes with fish sauce and eggs.
If you are vegan or vegetarian, they can leave out the eggs and/or fish sauce.
We also got a dish for my boyfriend’s roommate. He wanted the Chicken Red Curry. I told Vera that he wanted spicy, but not too spicy. She recommended the spice level of 1.5. My boyfriend said his roommate really enjoyed the meal.
We will definitely be back! Nice, but casual place for a date night. The owner’s name is Jay ( not sure if I spelled that right). The decor on the walls inside is nice. -
I’ve been coming to this restaurant for over 6 years ( just because I live close by) , food it’s fine at best, and service is always short and mediocre, however I kept coming just out of convenience. Today we needed to dine in the patio cause we had our puppy, and they dared to tell us they could not serve us in the patio cause it was “too polleny out there”. I’m sorry, whaaaat!? Yes there’s some pollen but WE are the ones eating outside, they didn’t need to have a beer or a 10min conversation with us out there! Could have at least offer to have a to go order and be able to use the patio, but they could care less about their customers. Just go to Thai Palace, 1 mile down the road, that place it’s so pretty and so much better in every aspect.
