11 Best Thai Restaurants in Durham

“Second time coming here on a trip out of town. The food was delicious. Piping hot. Flavorful.
They did have a sign on the door saying they were short staffed. It showed! They had only one person working the entire room to take orders so you had to wait a while. Food came out and no one came back to check if everything was ok or if you needed anything else. They were just busy. We arrived at 5:15 right when they opened. They were at capacity by 6 on a Sunday. They need help bad! But I’ll always go back because the food is outstanding.“

“The soup came in a special pot that I only saw in Thailand. Everything was very delicious.“

“We lived in Thailand for 12 years, since returning stateside just over 2 years ago we have tried several Thai restaurants and have been very let down. The khao soi and som tom were spot on! Amazing, the fried rice was delicious and P Joy even got us some Thai chili's in the lime/fish sauce. Highly recommend Thai Star, everyone was very friendly and kind!“

“Picked up drunken noodles for lunch and it was quite tasty. The heat was just as I requested, but the fried tofu was slightly tough and I would have preferred a little more sauce. However, the amount and variety of vegetables was certainly a step above other drunken noodles I have had.“

“great flavors and presentation,very good“

“Had a wonderful dinner there yesterday. Food was so delicious! The pot stickers with the red curry sauce (my favorite!). Main course was Pad Thai, the best version of this dish I've had in a long time. Everything was very flavorful, but not too spicy. Will be back soon to try more items. Our waiter, Kowit, was excellent too. Thank you!“

“We had a fantastic outdoor meal as the weather cooled down this week! Our server was excellent—attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The beautiful, Thai presentation of our meals matched the fresh and deep flavors. Papaya salad, deep fried Swai with green mango, fried catfish special, garlic chicken, dumplings…delicious! Thanks for the great night!“

“I’ve been a loyal customer of this restaurant for a long time, and the food has always been consistently delicious. Today, I tried the special kra Prow soft shell crab and I have to say, it was absolutely amazing!! Perfectly cooked, flavorful. the staff were incredibly friendly and enthusiastic.“

“Visiting from Kentucky and this place was the first recommendation and totally worth it. The chef had my order ready in a good amount of time and the food was delicious. I got double chicken pad Thai, crispy shrimp boa bun and their chicken karaage 10/10“

“We placed a catering order with Peony for a work meeting for 14 people. We did it through EZ Cater. We are so pleased! Everything was correct, the food was labeled, everyone really enjoyed their selections. Peony even accommodated the special requests that were written in for a couple of the orders. Our order was ready promptly and they automatically included the extra sauces, condiments, crunchy toppings, utensils (including chopsticks), and threw in a couple complimentary half gallons of sweet tea. The staff was so nice, they helped me get everything into my car.

We allowed our staff to choose between the Office Kitchen Lunch and the Office Sushi Lunch - the prices are seriously affordable for such good food and for the generous portion sizes. Our all-in price per person was under $15/pp (that's with food, taxes, tip). We will definitely order from here again and highly recommend it!“

“It’s pretty good! I’ve only had the bahn mis but they are delicious and fresh and full of veggies and meat. It was affordable as well only being 10 bucks for a small bahn mi and two egg rolls. They also have more regular size bahn mis though that are separate from the ones on the combos. However, for lunch I would come here over a fast food place any day of the week.“
