Very flavorful and delicious authentic Thai food. I asked for hot and got what I wanted. I can't wait to come back for more of their awesomeness. Service was wonderful and very quick.

I walked in and even though I was ordering to go I was immediately greeted and given a menu and a table to sit down and figure out what I wanted. Though it didn’t take me long. The gentleman came and took my order and my payment I waited maybe 10 minutes and then my food was brought out to me I was also given a complementary glass of water while I waited. I ordered the thai basil fried rice and asked for it to be spicy and they definitely gave me what I asked for no doubt. I really appreciated the great service and food especially it being my first time visiting.

Loved this Thai restaurant and their menu. The most astonishing part was the waitress - very smart and intelligent. She knew what we want in advance and for what we are going to call her. Food was really good and service was fast. Loved the ambience as well. Highly recommended.

Fast casual joint with solid menu, something for everyone, but aimed at healthy choices. Had a good salad with grilled chicken and a side of beets. Cashier and busing staff helpful and friendly. Pretty busy lunch crowd but fast lines and good came out fast. Recommended by regulars and locals.

We tried two lunch specials: noodles and a curry. Both were good, but only mildly spicy. When asked, they brought a caddy with crushed red pepper, chili paste, picked jalapenos, and Birdseye chilis in fish sauce. Enough to spice-up anything.

This place is fabulous! Some of the best Thai food I've had in the US, and I've been to a bunch of places. Great vegetarian options

Delicious thai restaurant with friendly staff. My favorite dishes are the Tom Kha soup and pineapple fried rice. We also love the thai iced tea!!

The red curry was really good, the pad Thai was a bit lacking in flavor. We got the tofu and squash appetizer, I expected it to be more than just literally fried tofu and squash, but it was also fine. The service was good, we were the only ones there (early weekday evening) so I can't speak to how it is when it's busy

Consistently good food. I love that when I ordered the pad thai with tofu, the waiter made sure that I understood that had eggs in it. Very sensitive to vegetarian and vegan needs.

Ordered the roast duck soup in a dark broth. The duck was tender, the broth was delicious, and the service was great. Reasonably priced, too. Would recommend!

Our favorite Thai restaurant in Durham. The service is great and the food fantastic. The red curry is to die for and so is their famous twisted noodles (flat noodles). Definitely recommend this place. Beware: their Thai spice can make your eyes water!

Always wonderful food. They find the best mangos for the sticky rice. I've created multiple addicts.

Twisted noodle is by far the best Thai food anywhere around. I have gone to them for years and I am never disappointed. They take great care in preparing your food and are very clear about any food specifications that you need.

The Panang curry is amazing...best I ever had. All the ride and noodle dishes I’ve tried have been very good also.

Twisted Noodles always has very quick service, sanitized pens and a speedy payment system in place--perfect place to grab a pick-me-up lunch, they usually have only a 10 minute wait if you call ahead. The green curry has a particularly large portion that can easily be two meals with the large amount of rice they give you!

Great lunch specials under $10. Got their lunch special with shrimp fried rice, 4 wings, and a bowl of salad. Shrimp fried rice was solid – no artificial flavors and good portions. Wasn’t expecting much from the wings, but they were very good even without the sauce. The quality of the wings were definitely comparable to wing specialty stores like the Heavenly Buffalos. Salad was a bit too heavy on the sauce, but overall a very satisfying meal. If you’re looking for a lunch under $10 that has good portion and quality, this is the place to go.

We both, my husband and I love the food they cook. My favorite is fried rice, it tastes really good with all vegetables inside. Try it!

Great place and service. Food is quite authentic- so warning for those who haven't had authentic spicy- and has flexibility for choice of meat or if you need vegetarian or gluten free options. You can order to go or eat on site. Been frequently the place for last 5 years and still same great food and service. Despite not being fond of the plaza it's in. It is easier to find parking near them with the lot they have to the side of it.

Excellent food and service! We shared a Tom Kha chicken soup (large = 3 cups!), drunken noodle chicken and a sauté ginger shrimp dish. Fabulous! Definitely be back!!
