My husband serprised me over the weekend and we drove 3 hrs to Raleigh for a comedy show, but a huge goal was to have authentic Thai. We lived in Thailand for 12 years and have missed genuine Thai so much. It was great talking to P. Joy in Thai and the food was the best we've had state side! Khao Soi and som tom were both so delicious! We actually ate lunch yesterday at another Thai place, but it had nothing on Thai Star.

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!

Unfortunately, I have to write a somewhat negative review for what was once our go-to Thai place. We always order Volcano Chicken. It was homemade using real chicken with the sauce covering it. Their sister restaurant Thai Cafe also had the same dish. It was not the frozen sweet and sour chicken nuggets you get from their competitor a mile up the road or from every Chinese place in America. We haven't eaten here in months, but apparently they've gone the way of every other Americanized Thai and Chinese and also now use the cheap mass produced fried chicken nuggets and have the volcano chicken sauce on the side for dipping. I could have made that at home on my own. Everything was separated in the to-go Styrofoam box (they nixed the plastic containers apparently). The veggies were bland, the sauce was oily, the chicken portion was small for what we use to get. Sadly, we will not return again. Now I'm wondering if Thai Cafe also decided to cut costs and quality and ditched real chicken for frozen nuggets.

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Ordered spicy basil beef. It was tasty enough but sadly the meat was tough. Best to stick with chicken if you decide to give it a try.

Purely based on the food, this place deserves one star. Ordered the chicken pad thai, it was dry and the noodles were stuck together like one big rice cake. No taste at all. I even found a shrimp tail in my CHICKEN pad thai. Threw put the majority of the pad thai. I won't ever come back here again. Save yourself some time, go somewhere else.

Great food and service.Best Thai food in town.

Decent food, but a bit disappointing considering their high ratings and glowing reviews. This was my second time trying the drunken noodles here and I found the chicken to be pretty dry. The drunken noodles sauce was watered down which diluted the flavor. I did enjoy the Thai iced tea, however. If you order take out, make sure to remind them you ordered tea as they tend to forget and prepare it separately from your food order. Overall, decent place but a bit overpriced for the quality you get imo

Very nice atmosphere. Restaurant was very clean and decorated nicely. Service was quick and friendly. I ordered the chicken noodle salad and it was very delicious with a curry broth. Highly recommend this Thai restaurant. They’re open on Christmas Day!

Friendly staff.Fried rice didn’t taste fresh and weren’t the best.Decent if other places are closed but doesn’t satisfy craving for Thai food.
