I have come here so many times and each time the owners never disappoint. From arrival to departure 100/10. The husband is always to pleasant as well as his wife. The food is ALWAYS made to order and it’s always cooked to perfection. The only bad thing I have to say about this establishment is that it’s only opened a few days out of the week. I will always recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves authentic Thai food.

A simple, nondescript exterior disguises one of Spring Lake’s culinary gems. Thai-Esan’s consistence in food quality, flavour, and hospitable service make this restaurant a perennial favourite. Korean food lovers should try the homemade kimchi when available. Service is unobtrusively charming in this family-run affair.

Just got take out from here and hour ago, had to jump on immediately to review as my experience was great! Got the chicken Pad Thai. Portion was huge, right price, tasty as well! The gentleman (retired veteren) in front was awesome, very friendly. IT WAS SO FAST! I placed my order and ran across the street to a convenience store. Came back and not only was it done, he met me outside so I didn't even need to head back in to grab it! Their food runs spicy. They will tell you the same. Normally I go 5 star, here I went 3 star and it was perfect. So just know going into it whatever your normal spice level is, order a level down and it will be perfect for your taste.

Owned by a Thai woman and her husband that is retired military. If my girlfriend shared the photos of the food, I would post them here for proof that the portions are enormous.
The beef bulgogi had a nice char, beefy flavor that one exhausts to find in any grilled dish. The sweet and sour pork dish made me want it more with each bite. The rice was so good that I went and bought a $170 Tiger Japanese Rice Cooker because I couldn’t help but want my own perfectly cooked rice at home to compare to this restaurant.
The owner is passionate about her food and her husband who runs the front is so welcoming and great for conversation.
This is a top spot for me and some of the best, affordable Asian food I’ve ever had in the states.

Man this guy boosted the food up telling me about his wife's cooking like it was the best but honestly I could have saved my 50 dollars everything in the place is high and the food was so spice the devil asked for water I don't think the old lady has it anymore if you got all night to wait on the food and you want your booty on 🔥 this is the place for you it took about 40 minutes to stir fry some rice and veggies don't let the man scare you off at the front counter just take my advice and keep it moving this is not the way

If you have any Asian influence in you. Thru friends family or your lover. You will understand this message. This place is run by old couple. White man “retired”. Darling amazing fiery wife who runs the kitchen and food. Why they open only 3 days a week because everything’s paid for they doing it for the love and passion that they still have from so many years and years ago from open. They tired, they don’t need to do this they could close. But they choose to go on and try to stay open a few days a week because of how delicious and amazingly savery their food is. I’ve been to Thailand I’ve been to many Asian country and around the world. But this spot hands down my favorite pad Thai spot. Be nice be courteous the old man is a nice retired military gentlemen and he is still going! I give him props for that. Order a Singha with your food and feel an explosion of flavors

A simple, nondescript exterior disguises one of Spring Lake’s culinary gems. Thai-Esan’s consistence in food quality, flavour, and hospitable service make this restaurant a perennial favourite. The pronounced heat of certain dishes directly reflects the cook’s Esan origins, a region in Thailand known for its robust flavours and the liberal use of chili pepper in its dishes. Notable is the restaurant's original chicken tenders which are battered and deep-fried to crispy perfection and served with a sweet chili sauce. Also noteworthy is the green curry which incorporates Thai basil and kaffir lime leaves. Remarkable too is the chicken larb with its well-balanced sour-salty flavour and the som tam (papaya salad) redolent with fresh garlic. Entree portions are ample enough for two servings and well worth the price. Kimchi lovers should try the homemade kimchi when available. Service is unobtrusively charming in this family-run affair.

While visiting the area ordered the Pad Thai to-go. Asked for it a bit on the spicy side and this place nailed it! The food quality fresh tasting, served hot and the taste was spot on from my experience of Pad Thai. It was enough for me to eat for both dinner and lunch the following day. Customer service was friendly and welcoming while being prompt and quick. Great job, recommend if you’re in the area and looking for Pad Thai.

Chicken fried rice and Beef Pad Thai took over an hour to arrive after ordering. Restaurant was not busy at all, so there is no excuse. After waiting about 30 minutes, I asked the owner for an update on our order but was told they had not even begun cooking it. My friend had then already finished his dish before mine arrived. Efficiency and professionalism are really lacking here. Food itself is mediocre and honestly ruined by bad service. It was an unpleasant experience. Hope this is not the norm for the hard working customer. Please do better.

While dining in, the owner went above and beyond to accommodate my daughter’s narrow dietary likes. We have never experienced this and it was surprising and heart felt to see. Thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️
