The best Tom Yam soup. This is real Tom Yam. But serving unfortunately in containers.

Super quaint spot for good Thai food. There is a small dining room, but most customers seem to take the food to-go. I personally ordered the Chicken Thai Fried Rice Thai Hot. Know that Thai Hot is definitely spicy and perfect for clearing your sinuses, haha ?. The food was incredibly flavorful, the chicken was moist and well cooked, and everything else about my dish was outstanding. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Thai food!Vegetarian options: Tofu is available up on request and many of their dishes are vegetarian friendlyDietary restrictions: They offer pork upon requestParking: Parking is available right out front in a small lot, and in the back next to the building.Kid-friendliness: Certainly a family friendly environmentWheelchair accessibility: No immediate impact to wheelchair accessibility

poor quality food. i ordered tofu pad thai (asked for veggies) they don’t put egg in their pad that either and it only came with shredded carrots and bean sprouts.asked for spicy level hot and they just dumped a table spoon of the jarred chili garlic sauce. no pride in their foodwon’t be going back.

Food is wildly mediocre but service is terrible. Upper management is constantly getting drunk instead of doing their job.

WE LOVE PHUKET!!! anybody that's a regular here would know karaoke is a must during nighttime hours, so if you're looking for more chill and relax time come during daytime hours. most people would agree hence the great reviews that this place is nothing but a great time. food is also hella good. Elma is the best too!! Thanks to her for great service.

My favorite place to grab food from when I don't want to cook or think about what to eat. My favorite is the pad kee mao and spring rolls, but have enjoyed everything I've tried on the menu.

Deceptive billing. Ordered take out of the Thai fried chicken last night. Sent my bro with my card to pay for it. Got the receipt then saw the discrepancy on my card statement. I tried to call them multiple times just to get hang ups. As I expected and confirmed by going to the location today, they charge a 3% service charge on CC transactions. No posting in the establishment as required by law, and nothing on the receipt that was given. Transparency when nickel and dimming us please. And the chicken was not so good. Soggy batter, not even close to the stuff Ono Thai in Ewa beach (see that review) offers. And 17 bucks to boot. Last time there for sure. Sorry.

Delicious Thai food for reasonable price! Definitely worth it. The only downside is parking for the location. Other than that, the food is great!

A colleague and I visited Phuket Thai on a business trip to Honolulu recently. We were both impressed by the quality of the food and how quickly it arrived. The waiter was really courteous and friendly. I will definitely come visit again. Let me reiterate that the food is excellent! I had the yellow curry mild, it was perfect with the sticky rice.Vegetarian options: I eat meat regularly but also like vegetarian dishes. In Thai restaurants I usually go for the tofu option, which in this case was excellent, not at all rubbery. The tofu complemented the yellow curry really well.

Went with my friend and his 10Years old son.There was a bunch of college kids playing karaoke and the music was loud to the point it was really annoying.We asked then nicely to tuen down the music,They but they were too drunk to the point they asked my friends son which is again he is 10 years old if he wanted a BEER!then they looked annoyed by us because we asked them to turn the music off.And they started going back n forth to the kitchen. So we weren’t sure what are they doing especially they were topless and drunk!The girl works there was super nice. But she mentioned that one of them is her BF, but still as long as they dont work there they should not go inside the kitchen.Part two : we ordered food and we decided to stay but the music went on again and it was too loud afterwards they came to our table start asking us bunch of questions!!!We had to leave immigration since we have 10 Years old kid. They were drunk! Asking him if he wanted a SHOT!!I don’t think so the owner is aware of what’s happening because it was soo disrespectful, unprofessional and unhealthy!

Quick yummy Thai food with a lot of variety. I'd say more of a take out place than a dine in experience but food was really good!

Heard it was a good place so I decided to give it a try on Friday night around 7pm.Ordered papaya salad, fried chicken, pad see ew, 2 mango sticky rice and a coke. The bill was $65 plus a $10 tip which I regret giving. While waiting for the food, we had to endure the worst kareoke you could imagine. No one needs to endure some dumb ass college kids singing. Who thought this was a good idea needs to re-examine their business plan.Food was below average, mango sticky rice was so hard and dry. They forgot to give us our coke.I hardly ever give bad reviews but this ambiance was a horrible experience. I hope the owners take their business more seriously because it's a shame to Thai restaurants!!!!
