Noodles in Saint Paul, MN

“Love their food went twice this week 1st pork belly to die for then cucumber salad green sauce made my day! 2nd day OG chicken wing sweet spicy I couldn’t put them down! Egg rolls were good too!“

“The Mongolian Beef noodles were absolutely perfect“

“The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, I am an alien 👽 from Canada 🇨🇦 visiting the land of the U S of A. The civilians of United States are very nice people. This place was amazing in food and most of the the customer service. Tommy and Ruu are top tier Associates. You hired the right people!“

“The cashier was nice and thorough to make sure that the order was correct. We drove about 20 minutes away, and the food was still hot. The buffalo mac and cheese was creamy, not too spicy. Probably some of the better mac and cheese that you can get at a fast food restaurant.“

“Ordered a variety of items. Curry, soup, noodles, etc. All 10 out of 10. Literally some of the best food We’ve ever had. Owner cooked. She is a meticulous chef with rare talent. You won’t be disappointed, no matter what you order“

“First time there today, very impressed with the taste of their food. Pad see ew, Boat Noodle & Raw Beef Salad were excellent! I felt like I was back in Thailand! I can't wait to go back.“

“Best Thai food in the cities!!!“

“We love Urban Wok! The food is great, friendly staff and a family fun atmosphere. They have rescued me a few times with healthy/quick dinners to last minute catering. Highly recommend.“

“Went in on a Monday at around 1pm for a pick up order and the seating area was packed. Like, no seats. Love trying new spots and did a Google search for best Thai in the Twin Cities. To my surprise found Karen Thai which I've seen 10,000 times getting gas on Larpenture on my way home from work. Tucked between a gas station and a Subway - it hadn't caught my eye as a spot to stop for lunch.
So today I happily swung in during a sudden rain storm - but thankfully had placed my to go order before leaving work. Quick order time, under 15 minutes. I was in and out, polite and fast.
I have to say, I've been missing out all these years and this is my new favorite spot.
Here's what I got-
Veggie Fried rice for my picky son @ a level 3 spice (not spicy in my opinion, was actually sweet) 9/10. A lot of veggies, not a fan of the tomatoes but that's a taste preference. Flavor was on point and the rice was just the right consistency. Tons of onion, just my style!
The Pad Se Ew level 4 spice (Spicy! Much more elevated than 3, and I almost did 5!) 12/10. Phenomenal. Noodles were just the right texture - not overdone, sauce was full of spice and Thai flavor cooked down to the perfect color and consistency. Just enough crunch to the veggies and let's not forget to mention the thinly sliced chicken that absorbed the sauce perfectly. Not too chicken-y chicken, if you get me? I'm weird about chicken - so I was pleasantly surprised but even more so impressed.
If you haven't, go. I can't wait to order again. Boat noodles are next!

Vegetarian options: Tofu and vegetable options! Variety of veggies, not frozen peas and carrots.“

“It has been years since my wife and I have dined in at DC2. The hype after its first opening seems to have died down. Usually when asked about DC2's food, folks seem to have mixed reviews. So because we were around in the area yesterday, we decided to give it a try to see what has changed.The menu seems about the same, with a few less items. The biggest change is the prices, which definitely is dollars more than it use to. Understanding with economy/inflation, pricing up is eventually going to happen. But is it worth really spending about $5-$10 on dishes where you can go a few blocks over to Hmong Village for cheaper?We ordered the combination pad thai (big noodles), papaya salad (Thai med spicy), and hli xiab (fried pork with tamarind sauce). I was always a big fan of the pad thai sauce from DC2, which seems to be the same as I remember it. However, the noodles are a bit thicker, like chow fun noodles. It was soft, feels homemade, and paired very well with the sauce & meats. The papaya salad was not overly sauced, and tasted very fresh. It had just the right amount of spiciness, sweetness, and sourness for both my wife and I. The hli xiab was a dish we have not tried before, and did very much enjoy. You pick a choice of meat which is stir fried with a sweet tamarind sauce accompanied with bell peppers and onions. There is an option to add spiciness, which we did do. We chose pork which was first fried, then cooked with the sauce and veggies. If you love sweet like in orange chicken, then this is the dish for you!The service was great, much better then I remember it. We were seated immediately, and the waiter was attentive. They also have a call system button now which you can click to ask for something or add things too.Overall, I was very impressed with DC2 and will come again. To go back on my question, I would rather spend few more dollars here then go to Hmong Village.“
