Food was amazing. I got the khao ka moo and for the price, you get so much food. The pork belly and pork hock were so tender. I also got the lemongrass honey tea and it was just the right amount of sweetness, there was just a hint of lemongrass - which I really liked. The grilled pork skewers were seasoned nicely, along with the sauce - it was great.

The place was crowded and had to wait to get a table. The food is great and explains why there's a long line.

This afternoon I had khao soi with chicken. It was delicious (as per usual). The curry broth tastes very complex and more homemade than khao sois from other restaurants. It was busy but the staff were so kind and attentive.

That chicken Thai basil is a masterpiece. Went last night for the first time from out of town and loved it. Contrary to the Google summary, they are NOT cash only.
I ordered the Thai basil stir fry, a Thai iced tea with boba, and vegetable spring roll and did not hate a single thing that entered my mouth for that 90 minutes.

The waitress was amazing. Great service didn't have to ask for much since she would already be on it. Food came out fresh and hot. The prices are normal for a thai restaurant. The food is not spicy so get the hottest spice level you'll survive.

Thai Excursions in Pittsburgh led me to one of the most reliable places for food in the city.
Noodlehead is a slight spin on what you would expect from a traditional Thai place, and yet mostly everything was executed well (few caveats though)
Starting with the appetizers, the fried dumplings were a 10/10. No complaints there. The sauce compliments the dumplings well but was excellent without it.
The Chive Cakes weren’t my favorite but that’s less on them, more on me about preference in taste. It has a unique soft texture which would go over well with anyone who likes that acquired taste.
Thai Milk Tea was a 10/10 as well. Far better than some I’ve had at other Thai places. I think I finished it before the main entree.
Now, I got the street noodles #1 on waiters recommendation. I thought it was pretty solid but felt like something was missing. Fundamentally, it’s a great tasting plate but maybe I was waiting for the flavor explosion and I didn’t quite get that. That wouldn’t turn me away from getting it again, but I would have to manage my expectations.
All in all, solid place to eat. Excellent and friendly service with a nice and welcoming vibe. Noodlehead will be seeing me again.
Food is great. Price is great. Service is usually great. Been to Noodlehead a dozen or so times, and the service only lacked once. The restaurant is decorated well and it’s very nice. Highly recommend.

Favorite Thai food in Pittsburgh! They cook many variations of their dishes to meet food allergies and aversions. Great vegan options.

I had to wait for 45 minutes for a table. Food was amazing, definitely worth the wait. Best Thai food in Pittsburgh. I ordered Khao Soi (with tofu) and Kee Mao(with tofu) spice level 4. Loved them both!
