I don’t ever care to leave bad reviews, but I’m doing so now for the restaurant to keep in mind in the future:
This is genuinely the worst sticky rice I’ve ever had in my life and was super hard and (maybe?) old so unfortunately we had to just throw it away. I bring this up especially as a Thai restaurant shouldn’t mess up a simple dish such as sticky rice so terribly, so I apologize for how rude this review comes off.
Their noodles are fine. The beef was just weirdly soft for some reason but that just might be a preference thing.
(Sorry for the bluntness of this picture, the agent on the delivery app we used made me take a photo of the rice in the trash to be refunded LOL)

Update: just got home and it is not good at all…DO BETTER. Food is great but what in the heck is this… I paid $13.99 I expect to get a full container of food. There is nothing in it but juice. I ordered Yellow Curry. Note… I’ve been here several times and always get a full container. Never will return!

We stumbled across this new upstairs option at RC's, and I need you to hear me when I say: don't go, y'all. Stay away. I don't like sharing. I have been to all the Thai places in town from the Crossroads to Waldo to the OP and beyond--you know the ones I am talking about with the fancy drinks and vibe, as well as the strip mall favs. This place is real real, and we had the best yellow curry and pineapple fried rice (Bangkok style) in the metro. The flavor, the texture--all the yum. The tofu came fried just like I like it, and the service was friendly and not too much or too little. A band was setting up, and there was a mix of people, including families. So, stay away. It was way too easy to get a table right away and get food and service, and we're looking forward to many future dinners.

I recently discovered Rockin Wok Thai Room in Martin City, and it truly is a hidden gem! If you're looking for authentic Thai food at reasonable prices, this is the place to go.
One of the unique aspects of Rockin Wok Thai Room is their selection of alcohol beverages. It's not often you find Scotch and Guinness available at an Asian restaurant, and it adds a delightful twist to the dining experience.As a pad Thai enthusiast, I was particularly impressed with their rendition of this classic dish. The flavors were spot-on, and it was prepared to perfection. I highly recommend trying it if you visit.
The staff at Rockin Wok Thai Room are super friendly and helpful, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Whether you're a local or just passing through Martin City, this is a must-visit spot for anyone who loves great Thai food and a welcoming atmosphere.
Dietary restrictions: Most dishes have tofu only options.

We love Thai House and excited to see they opened a place so close to where we live. The food is as good as anything we had in Thailand. The place is a little unexpected for a Thai restaurant (more of an older bar look) but our table was clean and we had great service.

Let me preface this review with the fact I ordered through Grubhub. The order arrived pretty quick. I ordered the beef pho and pork dumplings. I received the pho but no dumplings. I really enjoy pho but unfortunately, this pho left a greasy sort of aftertaste. I will drive the 25-30 minutes for good pho.

I stick to only a few places when it comes to thai/asian cuisine but they are literally my new favorite. their portion sizes are ON POINT and the taste is so authentic and present. I ordered online so i’m not sure what it’s like in person but I plan to visit at some point and compare my online ordering experience by ordering again soon. i hope that’s a consistent thing and that I didn’t just get lucky today lol. regardless, I’m happy with my food and look forward to supporting this restaurant more in hopes of a consistent quality experience.
Vegetarian options: I got the panang curry with vegetables! there’s so many options and ways to customize your order without meat. you can choose between vegetables and/or tofu

I've been looking forward to trying this place. The food was REALLY good. Spring rolls were great. And the green curry (chicken) was delicious down to the very last bite. The eggplant took the dish to the next level. It's a surprising location atop RC's Restaurant and Lounge long known for its amazing chicken. The upper level is huge with a large stage for live music.

Placed a carry-out Thai order. When I got there, my order somehow got lost or was picked up by someone else before I got there. Had to wait almost 40 minutes for them to remake my order.

The food and service were fantastic! I had crab Rangoon, egg rolls & seafood pho. Brought half home. I eat out a lot, and this is a home run! I will be back!

Probably the best red curry I’ve ever had. So much depth of flavor. Ordered Thai hot - excellent amount of heat that did not overwhelm any flavors. Can’t wait to go back for another dish. Highly recommend!

I had no idea this place existed until yesterday. I was looking on Google Maps to figure out where to meet a friend for lunch, and I noticed at RC's there was also a new Thai place. It turns out they converted their second story bar into a Thai restaurant. However, if you're walking into it for the first time, it won't look like what you might think it would. The upstairs still looks exactly like the old RC's bar down to the countertops and pool tables. That isn't a mark against the place, but be prepared to not be greeted by what you might imagine a Thai place would look like (i.e. Thai House on Holmes Rd).That being said, the service was decent, and the server even brought a complimentary four-piece rangoon with dipping sauce. I didn't call it crab rangoon because if you read the appetizer menu where it says crab rangoon, the description explicitly says "no crab". My main dish was their Pad Thai with pork. The portion and quality were pretty good for the price. The only thing I wish they did differently was offer a choice of spiciness. At most Thai places you can go with not spicy at all to "Thai hot" (what I go for), but here there was one level of spice, and spicy it was not. At least the food still tasted good.Minor gripes aside, this place is still worth trying if you're in the neighborhood.
