    Blown away by the food here. Let alone that it is set up in an old train station! Cool, unique spots like this always earn extra brownie points. Service was awesome, our waitress was constantly checking on us and giving refills. Food was made quickly and brought out fast. So many delicious flavors, and quality fresh food. One of my new favorite stops!

    FABULOUS! I had the spicy beef dish (stir-fry with onions and bell peppers in chili sauce). I wouldn't say it was "spicy" from a perspective of heat, but the chili spice (flavor) was authentic. I strive to find good Thai flavor after spending time in Thailand... it's here!

    The restaurant is located at a historic location near the waterfront. Rustic with a feel to it. The service and the food are authentic but do remind them about what spice level in terms of Thai Hot you want. Ingredients are fresh. Must visit for food lovers.

    It is a great Thai restaurant. The food was delicious. I got a chicken soup and noodles with beef. That was amazing. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes to eat healthy and good.

    Extra sauce means soup for your meal. I returned and ask to cook the regular way and they just poured some of the sauce off my food and returned it to me. I’m very disappointed because I never had a problem with them before. I will not come here again. The sad part about this, they were quickly bringing me my receipt. What’s really going on??? So sad but this is what they do now😡😡

    Great food, but it takes time to get in and out. If you are in a hurry not the place. Eating and watching trains go by is pretty cool. Prices are not bad at all.

    The food was delicious. I was extremely confused as to where to park when coming to this restaurant. I ended up parking in metered parking a couple blocks away. I found out after the meal that there is parking in the back of the building. We were seated fast. The size of the meal was great and it was spicy. Reasonable prices except for the Thai iced tea which I thought was a little expensive for the size. I will order from here again.

    Always a good place to eat. The staff is super friendly. Charming atmosphere, usually quiet. I'm the type of person that I always order one of two or three things, but those things are always good! We miss the sushi. Kids menu could use a little more oomph. But we love this place!

    Excellent Thai food! The spicy edamame was incredible and I don’t even really like edamame all that much, it was perfectly seasoned and served warm. All of us left fully satisfied and if we weren’t on a trip, we would have had plenty for leftovers. Highly recommended.

    I understand that the restaurant was very busy, but they were not serving people in the order they arrived (one we had sat down) . It was me and one other person, and 5 other groups with more people , and some with the same as us… got their food before us even though we were waiting for longer. We did not have a complicated order, the overall service was not great. Then the food was very mid (not all that great) the pad Thai had a very predominant vinegar taste which was interesting, I did not finish the meal. We waited for a total of 1 hour and 15 minutes. NOT worth the wait…Sorry.

    Had a great experience at Railroad Thai. Slightly busy at 5pm on a Saturday but the service was still quick and great! Indoor and outdoor seating available right on the river. The restaurant is located in an old train station with amazing architecture. Spring roll appetizer was awesome. We got stir fry and curry. Both dishes were amazing and we were able to get extra rice with both dishes. Hot saké was free flowing. If you like spicy they can definitely ramp up the spice level. Enough food to have left overs. We are going to go back again before we leave the area. Thanks!

    The spring rolls were okay. Had the spicy chicken. Not too bad although the sauce was a little watery. The sushi 🍣 looked okay. Prices seemed reasonable. No military discount. Found that hard to believe so close to an air force base. They said they were losing $10k a month giving the discount. Not good enough for a return visit. Plenty of parking.

    Food quality has declined under new management. I got the chicken curry and after waiting 55 minutes the veggies were raw uncooked and had two stems that I had to pick out of my mouth.

  • 5/5 Tiffany 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious and fast food however, I would have preferred the red/green peppers cooked in the curry. The red curry was delicious and so was the Pad Thai.

    The food and service were top notch. We had a group of 18 people. Our cups were always full and food came out quickly. The portions were huge and the food tasted amazing. Will definitely be back.

    Lek's Railroad Thai is this great place combining old world charm with new world vigor. Their Thai toast is the appetizer to have. Don't miss out on it. Their entrees include some really great dishes like rice and chicken in a clay pot, pleasing garlic chicken, etc. The traditional panang curry and the masaman curry were equally great. Overall, a highly recommendable Thai spot.

  • 2/5 Chuck C. 10 months ago on Google
    I ordered Pad Thai which is like the easiest thing in the world but it took 40 minutes to cook. I was about ready to walk out and it wasn't even busy I don't know what happened... Just don't be in a hurry I guess.

  • 4/5 Victor N. 1 year ago on Google
    The Thai salad, spring rolls and green curry were delicious! I asked for extra Thai spicy and they did not disappoint, it was spicy and delicious. The atmosphere was comfortable and the décor was nice. I asked for some vegan options and recommendations and they were helpful.

    Good thai food at a decent price. The ambiance is also good. Food: The dishes we tried were really tasty, especially Thai toast, and Panang Curry was awesome. The other dishes were crab angles, Masaman curry, pleasing garlic chicken, and chicken in a clay pot. Service: The service was good with a standard food waiting time. You can pay for public parking at the river front and walk there as it's just beside it.

    I ordered the pad see ew with chicken extra spicy. Their spice level was low to moderate. Serving size was good ratio to price. Dish itself was well crafted with good portion sizes of meat. The noodles are not as wide as I have seen from most Thai restaurants but was not a limiting factor. No excess oil, which I appreciated. The staff was attentive as I was in a large group (10+). I would not hesitate to come back and bring my family. 20% gratuity added to groups of 6 or larger.

    Food was delicious the three times we went. Didn't take long to get waited on and food came out quickly. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and piping hot. Waiter, who was really friendly, recommended two dishes that were scrumptious. The crab angels (rangoons) were so good that we ended up getting three orders. Love this place!

    My first visit to this location. I had previously visited Lek’s Taste of Thailand several times but decided to try this location. Knowing they would be busy, we tried to order ahead but they don’t allow that so we made a reservation a couple days prior for a party of 8. When we arrived we were promptly seated and we placed our lunch order. It took 40 minutes to get our meals. The entire time our server was not attentive and never once gave us an update on our order nor asked if we needed anything. Once our food arrived, it was very tasty as expected but the lunch portions are very small (see photo). I knew they automatically charge 18% gratuity for groups of 6 or more so I figured our server felt she didn’t need to do anything to earn her tip. If you plan to go here for lunch you should plan to be there for at least an hour if you made a reservation or at least 1.5 ~ 2 hours if you didn’t. I will probably go back there for lunch because the food is excellent and we really enjoyed the nostalgia of the old train depot, but next time I’ll be sure to order from the dinner menu.

    This is one of the best restaurants in the city. They start with excellent products and cook the entrees authentically. My favorite is ginger chicken with extra vegetables, spring rolls, soup, and sweet tea.

  • 3/5 Zachary H. 2 years ago on Google
    Nothing offensive about the place, just not very tasty. Service was good and dinner was fast but it was the most bland curry I’ve had from 3 continents without even an option for spice level. Also pricey for what you’re getting.

  • 1/5 Jorie S. 2 years ago on Google
    Big Disappointment! My carry out chicken fried rice was horrible! The ingredients taste like leftovers, clearly not fresh and the customer service was rude and unfriendly! Definitely will NOT recommend!! Will not return. Issuing day old food to customers is a violation of FDA’s Food Code!!

  • 5/5 John G. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and the food is fantastic. Many vegan options

  • 4/5 Travis G. 2 years ago on Google
    I called in my order and it was ready when I walked in the door to pay. Chicken pad Thai had a good ratio of noodle to chicken I ordered it extra spicy because I love the flavor. Unfortunately not very many peanuts but the lime was very present. Good portion as well. Sadly still using plastic and styrofoam containers. I would come back again. Overall 4/5 stars today.
