This place ranks among the best Thai food I have had in the U.S. The chef commands a mix of spicy, sweet, umami, and acidic flavors in a way that only the bestchefs can.-To drink, I got the Thai iced green tea. The slightly more astringent green tea paired really well in this drink, which was not overly sweet as Thai iced teas can be.-We got the #33 shrimp salad, which was perfectly limey.-#43, the Yen Tha foe, was truly one of the best soups I've ever eaten. The depth of flavor in the broth, the silky-gushy noodles, and the marvelous textures combined for something I'd like to eat for my last meal.-Pad eggplant was silky and umami-laden.

This used to be our favorite Thai place, but when we visited a few days ago and went to order Tom Yum soup, the base price is $13.99...BUT...the server said you can't actually get it at that price... it's an extra $2!!BAIT and SWITCH!Now the pricing is a damn math exercise...the customer must now pick ala carte the protein to add...and you can't get the soup as it used to be as a base--3 or so meats in the original!So, no way will we be paying $25 for a bowl of soup after tax and tip!We happily went to iPho by Saigon down the street and ordered a huge bowl of generously portioned beef Pho for $11.99 each!!! Split a Bon Mi sandwich and after tax and 20% tip our meal was $38!!I can't imagine On's will stay in business with the new price gouging!!??

Very disappointing. I did a take out for spring rolls and when I opened it, there was no sauce to go with the spring rolls- I didn’t mind but then when I saw the spring roll itself, I was disappointed of how it was put together. Looks like it’s full of noodles but inside it’s full of lettuce. Not well put together. For this to be an authentic Thai and Asian restaurant, I’m disappointed. I’ve been to other places where their spring rolls are well put together and cost just as much. $7.50 for two spring rolls like this was not worth it. I won’t be returning or recommending this place to anyone.

My husband and I order from On's regularly, as it's super close to our house. We've each tried a few different dishes, depending on what their specials are and what we're feeling. The restaurant itself is a bit dark and gloomy, the tables and other furniture have been well-used, but the staff are always great. They are attentive and kind and the food is hot and fresh. While the appearance may not be the best first impression, the food is 100% worth it (the overall vibe of the restaurant is the only reason for me subtracting a star). Ordering for pickup is fast and easy; you can order online and usually pick up within 20 minutes or so (depending on how busy they are, obviously). Dishes I've tried: --Thai Yellow Curry (with fried tofu and once with imitation crab, mild-medium spice level): The broth is creamy with a good amount of spice. I don't know how they make the potatoes so soft and buttery tasting while they're soaked in a soup, but they're amazing. All of the other veggies are perfectly cooked and the dish is served with a heaping pile of white rice. --Pad-See-Ew (with fried tofu): I love a thick noodle and these are delicious. They do tend to clump together, leaving some without sauce, but that doesn't hinder the overall dish at all. I do wish there were a bit more sauce, but the veggies are fresh and delicious. --Mango Sticky Rice: This is definitely worth saving room for; the rice is, as the name mentions, a sticky ball. The sliced mango is so soft and sweet, it's perfectly ripe. To top everything off, there's a sweetened condensed milk sauce. All in all, this scratches that sweet itch! --Thai Iced Brown Sugar Milk Tea: This tea was light and sweet without becoming syrupy, it was a delicious pairing with my meal.

They said they were short staffed, but our server absolutely killed it. Fast, friendly, intuitive service. He knew a lot about the menu and asked us questions!Food is always amazing. You can customize your spice level, so it’s accessible for everyone! Many choices on the menu and some cool drinks available.100/10!Wheelchair accessibility: One level, no stairs

From hero to zero. Small portion. The waitor seemed drunk/intoxicated as well.

The food is fresh, flavorful, and the best Thai food I have had in the Metro yet. The drinks are on par, the food is on point and the service is quality even with staffing limitations. I have to say we will be going back.

This was the best fried rice I've ever had! The medium spice level was perfect for me and I like spicy food.

These guys used to be my favorite but they've raised the prices through the roof. Red Curry used to be $11 now it's like $14 before you chooses a protein for an additional $3.00. So $18.00 for Red Curry with Chicken and a small ass side of rice hellllll nah! Also $20 for a tiny ass salad that used to be $12.00. Nah sorry I'll go to Bangkok Thai and save $20 for the exact same food.

Extensive Thai menu with large portions. We tried 7 items and 3 apps between six of us. Everyone took food home. All dishes were excellent and unique. I would recommend and would go back or do takeout.
