Pleasant service, tasty food. The place was literally empty when we arrived, however food took significantly longer to come out. If it wasn't for the good convo my husband and I were having and the fact that my stomach wasn't growling my review would have been different. There was a toddler running up and down the restaurant which was a little distracting but he was adorable.

From such an unassuming place, you would never expect the amazing food that you get here. I found everything to be hot and fresh, with good flavors, and a perfect spice level. The egg rolls were some of the best that I have had in a long time and the Geang Panang Curry I had was something that would make me come back. Plus, the staff was super friendly and personable, not something you find everywhere. Finally, the thai iced tea was sweet but not overly so and went perfectly with the food. If I could give this place more than five stars I would!

Got some take out on our way through town. Food was good. A few different ingredients than we're used to, but the taste was excellent. There's no parking available, just fyi.

We ordered from Uber Eats, which gave us a horrible experience coz we finally had food after almost 2 hours of waiting. However, the food was still nice, we just needed to heat it up a little bit by microwave then it's still good to serve. I think both quantity & qualify of food here is good. Just one small thing, which I think is a bit subjective. We ordered pad thai & fried rice at mild level (or whatever it is called in the menu) of spicy, then tom yum soup at the middle level. Normally I'm confident that I can consume food at that middle level of hot, but the tomyum soup I ordered today was really spicy, I could only got several spoons and will try again later. But overall, I think the food is delicious.

A top place for thai food. This place does it for me. The bill was fair. Food is similar to a cafe in Portland I loved.

Thai Street Eats is currently open during mid-day. There are maybe 20-25 seats at tables and they offer take-out. On a nice day there is a small pocket park within steps that could be used to sit outside. The restaurant is like a Chipotle in that you walk along choosing various items for a rice or noodle bowl. The number of possible combinations allows for a variety of tastes and I am planning to return to try different options I had to pass over first time there. We enjoyed the food and although I have no clue what "authentic" Thai is I found the flavors different and interesting. Service was friendly and one of the owners (or a manager) came out to ask us how the food was. It was a nice place to have something different for lunch and if I worked near the restaurant I think I would be a frequent visitor.

We have a new favorite Thai restaurant in Syracuse -- appeThaizing! It's built for speedy takeout but we wanted a warm place to sit and relax with some good food. appeThaizing accommodated us nicely. The owner was also our waiter last night. After he answered a few questions about the food, he took our order and was back with our dishes in a few minutes. Everything was delicious! It's amazing! The food is good and the staff is great! You really do feel welcome when you go there. At least I did!

If you love Chipotle's build-your-own-bowl concept but your tastes are more south Asian than South-of-the-border, then Khao Gaeng is sure to please. I've been here a few times and the food has always been tasty- it's nice to be able to pick exactly what goes in my bowl. Plus, it's affordable. A great option for lunch or a quick no-fuss dinner.

It's "Appethaizing" now and the Pad Thai was delicious!!

Awesome place by Clinton Square! Went here to grab food during my lunch break and there was no line (aka get your butt here to give them business). The man who made my tofu bowl was very kind and answered my questions about if any of the sauces contained dairy or fish sauce (none of them do, only (non)dairy is coconut milk!). I got vermicelli noodles, tofu, all the veggies with red curry. It was the perfect amount of heat for someone who likes to get their nose running a little, but not overpowering. Would highly recommend this $10 delight! Picture was taken about half way through the meal, lots of substance!

I am so disappointed with this place. Although delivery was fast, the food was horrible and o didn't get my entire order. Egg rolls: were fried until black Fried tofu: wasn't fried Chicken pad Thai, 2 orders: between the two orders of pad Thai, there were FOUR, yes FOUR (4) pieces of chicken. The noodles were in big lumpy balls, no peanuts. Thai tea: not delivered I have had cup-o-noodles pad Thai that is way better than this garbage. The restaurant would not make it right, they just refunded the egg rolls & grubhub had to cover the missing tea. If you want good Thai food, go somewhere else:
