Thank God for Thai Pavilion being around and open Christmas Day! I didn't feel like eating anything but Thai food yesterday.

The Pad Kee Mow (Drunken Noodles) or (Crazy Noodles from the Thai Pavilion during the years of 1994-2005) is dynamite. I normally get Green Curry Tofu and Nam Tok with Chicken. (It normally is with beef but the one time I gave the chicken a chance it was amazing so I have ordered it like that eversince.) I also get the non sweet sticky rice to dip the flavorful sauce with to take advantage of every delicious bite.

My mom got the Pad Prik Khing with Chicken and we were delighted because that was the aroma and taste of Thai food on Sundays at a Buddhist Temple worldwide.

I loved the Mango with Sticky rice and the Banana and sticky rice. They are authentic. Don't order the banana and sticky rice unless you are adventurous and like new textures and tastes like Mark Wiens.

My son ate the shrimp in blankets. I might have to order Pad Kee Mow again because I am having a longing for the spice, tangy, and soft rice noodles again.

EXCELLENT food, very traditional and clearly made with heart. All of the staff were incredibly nice and didn't mind visiting and hearing what you had to say. Decor is ever so slightly dated (drop pannel ceilings, old carpet etc) but this is more an issue with the building and all the ornaments adorning the wall are very tasteful and help sell the authenticity. Absolutely a return for my family and i, and i highly recommend anyone in the local area to give it a try!

Overall experience was positive except the needed clarification of ordering separate from the lunch menu. Four individuals at the table understood that you can order a lunch portion of an entree off the regular menu for $2.00 more than typical lunch price. It is actually a regular portion at $2.00 over the regular price. A $14 meal became a $24 meal even after requiring explanation and clarification from the waitress prior to ordering.

There was no accountability even though four people heard it the same way prior to ordering.

Have gone here many many times over the years, always consistently good food and quality ingredients. Lived here 10 years ago and returned to the area for work and was glad to see the quality remained so good and consistent. The restaurant definitely sources there ingredients well. Probably one of the best Thai places I've been to if not the best, would highly recommend

Definitely a nice quality Thai restaurant especially for a small town like DeKalb kind of remote. Not the best I have had and have eaten at hundreds of Thai restaurants around the world.Their cucumber salad appetizer is quite tasty....the papaya salad is nice too minus the shrimp for vegetarians. Normally it doesn't come with shrimp in most places but this does so be aware. Their Pad Thai is good but not great....don't order that dish again. Their pad se ew is very nice though....not the best I've eaten but very good. Their tofu satay is yummy too.A great place to have in DeKalb for sure.

I've been going here for years and it was my favorite restaurant, even as it got more expensive. But now they've changed the ratios so there is less veggies and protein and way more rice or noodles. My mom, who ordered the Pad Thai rice, only had 1/4 of a tomato instead of a whole tomato, and this trend was true for the protein as well.

A bit expensive considering the very low portion of meat and overfilling of cheap bell peppers in the curry. Not the best but not bad with taste but everything else is hell no. Typical restaurant for American people who have never eaten south asian/south east Asian cuisine to go "gaga over".
