    Really great food, and excellent service. The food is individually spiced and almost everything can be made with GF Tamari sauce. Food pics are pad Thai, pineapple fried rice, pumpkin Curry, and Thai basil stir fry. Also the summer rolls with a unique peanut sauce.

    Spice levels are out of sync with reality - prices are also out of sync with the current economy. They have 7 levels starting with zero. We ordered 1 and it was too spicy already. Cannot sense any of the food flavors due the spice intensity. Definitely not tasty!!! On top they charge too much for the kind of food they serve. For me this is a zero stars place.

    We stayed in Waikiki. Shopped at Kahala Mall. We were looking for a place to eat on the way back and found lots of options along Waialae Avenue (Kaimuki). The ambience =3 stars here (stark, clinical, plastic chairs) however the food/flavors =4 stars. Friendly service = 4 stars. Value for money = 4 stars. After dinner there are places to grab dessert or after dinner boba.

    I just ordered 18 dollar curry from this place and they both arrived to me half full and un marked.... I feel totally ripped off. Edit: ok so after eating it, I have to say it's the best curry I ever had in NM but still.... 18 dollars for half a container?!

    Muay thai pork chops are AMAZING!!! The best pork chops I’ve ever had! Pumpkin curry is nice too. Minus 1 star because they charge extra fee if you pay in credit card not in cash. That’s kind of ridiculous.

    I've visited twice Got vegetable red curry, Thai hot, vegetable Tom Ka, Thai hot, and panang curry, spice level 4. Easy to customize, both on protein and spice level, which was on point (for once). Added eggplant to the panang, and it worked great. Thai hot brought the heat, which is rare! Service was very good. The ceiling could be improved... umbrellas were being used to catch a leak! And I hate pun names. But enjoyed myself and will be back.

    We came in by a happy accident after our intended destination was closed. I ordered the pumpkin curry and every bite was delightful and savory; full of flavour! I will definitely come back to try other menu items.

    You can always find delicious food and great service here. This is the first store I visit when I visit Hawaii. My recommendations are Pad Thai and Hometown Curry, they are delicious like no other!

  • 3/5 hws h. 11 months ago on Google
    service was wonderful and atmosphere was good too. but it’s a bit different from what I used have. Taste more like mixtures of Vietnamise. Too sweet. Make sure to ask easy on sugar. Shrimp yellow curry, Veggies spring rolls and other stir fries we ordered. Spring rolls wrapped with not rice papers. Hope this helps when you order. oh… when I found out the curry was too sweet, I asked easy on stir fries and that was good! Server was so kind!

    We were referred by hotel staff and we couldn’t be more satisfied. The food was great! Don’t be afraid of the Thai spicy rating, if you like spicy go 4 Thai spicy 🌶️. The only bummer was they did not have a good selection for drinks, that were out of most drinks on the menu. Friendly service! Would definitely come back😃.

  • 5/5 Suraj B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing thai food. Great combination of spice and flavor made the food just amazing. We had spicy fried rice and pad Thai noodles. We ended up ordering more food to take for dinner as well:⁠-⁠)

  • 3/5 Sara R. 1 year ago on Google
    I came here for the reviews and the punctuation on google maps, but honestly not worth it. The food no real thai flavor, it lack very much in every plate we order. Expensive and at the entry there's a sign that says every item it's 1 more dollar. The portions not generous like thai original food it used to be. Not coming back for sure. If you are hungry go but if you're looking for thai good food go somewhere else. Don't order the spring rolls !!! Reap off !!

    Delicious! We got panang curry and pad seeu. Both were just perfect. There was not a drop left on their plate. Best meals we had on Oahu.

  • 5/5 Daniel S. 1 year ago on Google
    This is by far and away some of the best Thain food I have had the pleasure of eating. The pad seyu was amazing and the panang curry was equally delicious. Service was great, quick and friendly and kept our waters topped up after the wiliwilinui ridge trail hike. The location is quaint but clean. There is parking in the back so no need to look for quarters and on street parking. I can't recommend this place enough for those who like Thai cuisine.

    Fantastic, Fantastic, Fantastic!!! Our group ordered 4 different things and WOW!!!

  • 2/5 Sherry Sophie C. 1 year ago on Google
    Omg, so bad! (compared to what Thai can/should be!) Edible, but very disappointing. I even came here a second time, hoping it would be different (and because I love Thai food), but no... it's pretty bad if you care about food.

  • 5/5 Ben M. 1 year ago on Google
    We love To Thai for. I like spicy food and Thai medium spice takes me right to the edge of too hot, but not over the top. I love the coconut soup. We have never had a bad meal. My favorite Thai restaurant in Honolulu.

  • 5/5 Amrutha S. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing food! Lots of vegetarian options, truly to Thai for. Love the different levels of spice offered. I personally love spicy food so Thai medium was perfect for me.

  • 5/5 Nona G. 2 years ago on Google
    We decided to try this restaurant out today. We got the soft summer rolls, yellow curry and Pad Thai. I am a little picky about food at restaurants but this was a great choice. Server was attentive and had our ordered food to our table very quickly. I was going to take most of my Pad Thai home with me but the person with me finished it up and also all of his curry. Plan to take my sister here while visiting for her 70th birthday. Also, plan for this to be my go to Thai restaurant from now on.

  • 5/5 Thomas S. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food. Reasonable prices

  • 5/5 Patrick D. 6 years ago on Google
    This place is delicious. One of my favorite food joints that right down the street. I love to get it for takeaway, they box it up for ready transport, are fast and offer generous portion sizes! I highly recommend their Tempora Veggies, some of the best I've ever had, and their Pad Thai, with fish. Be careful with how spicy you ask for, spicy is very spicy, although I'm a fan of hot and spicy food, I would go a little mild unless you are a fan of spicy Curry. Portion sizes are very generous for the prices, I would definitely recommend this place for good food on a budget, and their dining area is nice and their bar is a great place for a cheap date.

  • 5/5 Roxanne G. 4 years ago on Google
    OMG the fish here!!!! YUMMY food all around. There is nothing here I didn't like. The calamari is tender and breaded go perfection. The fish is delicious. Perfectly fried in a sweet and tangy sauce. The service can't be any better easily my favorite Thai restaurant in island so far. Can't wait to go back.

  • 5/5 Eldon C. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is always excellent. Had the special pork belly and it was amazing. Rad Na is always delicious. Plus, the service is great. They are friendly and fast. Love it here.

  • 5/5 Mary G. 2 years ago on Google
    Lots of spice levels to choose from for everyone. Expect larger dishes (and possibly leftovers). Their Thai teas were excellent, especially the Plantation Pineapple. Love all the plants they had indoors for sale!
