Great staff, been going here for awhile and the food is always good, the staple Thai entrees are great but it’s always fun to try something new here. Out last visit they gave us some soup to try, it was so good gonna get it every time from now on.

We enjoyed the small hole in the wall atmosphere and all 10 of us found the dishes to be quite good! prices were around $10-15 but portion sizes varied a lot. i found my spicy noodle sizing to be a bit small for $13.
restroom was also in the rear of the building so you had to walk around back which felt unsafe at night and weird to be in the kitchen. also restroom had a very strong scent
We ordered the Pad See Ew with beef, Pineapple Fried Rice with chicken, Tom Yum Soup with shrimp, Sticky Rice with Mango and a Thai Iced Tea. The Pineapple Fried Rice was really good. The Pad See Ew was very good, but slightly too sweet for my liking. The meats in them were very fresh and not overcooked or dry. They tasted like they were made to order. The Tom Yum Soup was ok as the flavor was a bit weak to what I'm used to. The sticky rice in the Sticky Rice with Mango was pretty bad. A lot of hard grains. Not sure if they're uncooked or old, but every bit had a lot of hard grains making it inedible IMO. We just ate all of the Mango. The Thai Tea was really good. Service was friendly, but super slow as there's only 1 gal working the front. The dining room is small with about 6 tables and there were 2 parties who were seated before us, so we had to wait a while to put in our order. Once the order was in the food came out at normal time. Would I go back? Probably not.

We got the spring rolls & crispy rolls as apps. The spring rolls were so flavorful- you could really taste the basil. And the peanut dipping sauce was incredible.
My friend had an eggplant dish and I had shrimp & vegetables. Both were perfectly balanced with flavor & spice.
Our server was so sweet & attentive.
Highly recommend this place- great quality & service!
The best Ive had in OC- I cant wait to go back.

Delicious Thai food at a great price! I asked for extra chicken and they only charged me an extra $3 I think. I have come several times since discovering this place and leave satisfied every time.

Delicious food and great value. I highly disagree with the other reviews mentioning small portion sizes. The Pad Thai was a very generous portion. Not only that, but it was one of the tastiest and freshest Pad Thais I've ever had with lots of flavor and umami. Try this place for yourself. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes.

I ordered the spring rolls with shrimp. They were served with ONLY lettuce and shrimp. No basil, mint, carrots, or cabbage. I was told they were out of the ingredients. I thought how odd that they would serve something with more than half the ingredients missing. I returned the dish for tom kha soup...low and behold it had carrots and cabbage in it 😄 Go figure 🙄

I LOVE this new Thai restaurant near me and all the Street Food dishes that the waitress recommended, delicious. Excited to try every new dish on the menu. So happy to have them in the neighborhood.

The food at Nai Tong Thai Kitchen was as delicious as, if not better than, what we’ve had in Thailand! The chicken satay was absolutely mouthwatering, perfectly cooked and flavorful. Even the small-sized soups were huge and could easily serve as a full meal—they were incredibly satisfying. The Pad Thai was another highlight, with a generous portion size and a taste that was spot on. On top of that, the place was super cute and spotlessly clean, which made the whole experience even better. We’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommended!
