Fantastic delicious meals, extremely courteous and kind staff. They have lad na - difficult to find in North American Thai places so it was a real treat. The seafood salad (Yum Talay) and galangal mushroom soup (Tom Kha) were also a big hit. Panang was deliciously nutty and sweet how it's supposed to be. Pad Thai was fine as a staple.

Food was delicious! We tried the pad thai, pad see ew, and the panang curry - all fantastic, but especially the curry. Our new favorite Thai restaurant in Cary!

Drunken noodles were great but salty ; the shrimp they use is not great. We asked to have it remade & it came out way better (bc of the saltiness). Beef cashew lacked flavor & was very watery. I did like the fact that they’re very generous with the cashews. Mango & sticky rice plus my thai tea was perfect. Service was ok. I would honestly try a different place before coming back. The area it’s in is also terrible, but then again it is South Raleigh…

I've tried lots of Thai restaurants in the Triangle area, and this is one of my two favorites. The food is consistently fresh, delicious and satisfying. I highly recommend the Pak Tod as an appetizer, and the Pad Thai as a main course.

Something I really appreciate about Thai Villa is how accommodating they are for special requests. Want more broccoli in your Pak Tod? Done! Want your Pad Thai made without fish sauce? Done! Want some spices for the table so you can set your entire mouth on fire? Done!

The location is pretty tight inside at some points of the day if they are very busy but they serve some really good Thai food. I love their chicken massaman and kua noodles.

This has been a staple for decades. Always a favorite stop when doing business in the area. As a long-time patron, I measure most other Thai restaurants to this establishment.

We were in the area to pick someone up from the airport, so I looked into Thai places that we could grab dinner from before the flight landed. This was one the highest rated and recommended places. The parking lot and area felt like it was deserted but there is life here. We were seated at a booth immediately. The people working were very nice and understanding, patient with us as we looked over the menu. I got the Pad See Ew with pork with no spice. The dish was very filling and the portion was generous. The dish had a slight smoky flavor to it and was a little more salty than other pad see ews I’ve had, but it was still delicious. I thought that the spice level descriptions were informative. My partner got a dish with spice level one and found the description to be accurate. The service was fantastic and they did a great job making sure our waters were refilled as we drank them. I would definitely return!

I have ordered food here several times but today was my first time offering Mussaman Beef Curry. It was delicious and piping hot. The creamy curry broth was seasoned so perfectly, the potatoes and beef were tender and the rice too. The rice absorbed all the broth keeping the flavor of the dish. I would’ve loved a couple of more slices of beef and potatoes, the peanuts maybe a little fresher but none of this took away from the dish! I enjoyed my meal.

* The restaurant has limited hours lunch stops at 2:00pm and dinner resumes at 5:00pm.

There is a noticeable odor, only in the vestibule that the air freshener is not able to manage. Might be time to replace the floor tiles and see if it eliminates it. The dining room had no odor detected and should not take away from dining in.

All the traditional dishes were available and prices were affordable in general. Food overall was good in taste and quantity. My noodles were a bit salty, but may be that's just unlucky. Overall good experience and they have a very nicely decorated place.

Hands down THE best Thai food I've ever had. No frills, just great homemade meals that never disappoint!! Come out quickly AND for cheap!! Each time I try a new Thai restaurant I compare it to here and not a single one has even come close. Thai Villa is the goat 🙌🏻😭 can't stress it enough

Probably the best Thai food I tried in the U.S.
The place itself is awful, especially restrooms.
