WAS the best kept secret in South Austin. Downhill about a year. Recent meal was TERRIBLE; Better food at the hospital. Seriously.

I love this place. The pad thai is my favorite in South Austin. The price is great, and she is always so sweet and quick when I order. The spice is also actually spicy!!!

Their Thai tea is the best Thai tea I’ve ever had! The lady who works is so sweet. Their pad Thai is delicious as well as their sticky rice! Must try Thai Esan’s thai food !!

I unfortunately cannot provide an accurate review as after I ordered online at 2:40pm last Saturday, and drove to pickup my food, Thai Esan was closed. I called the phone number listed, but no answer. I filed a complaint with their ordering company and was given a refund a few days later. Just disappointing that their hours were not accurate and I was never able to contact the management directly.

First time visit had three entrées, all ordered extra spicy and they were indeed, that way. Big portions, and ability to customize dishes with many add-ons for a price when ordering online. Pad Thai with shrimp was not annoyingly wet like some places. Good flavor. Pineapple Rice with tofu as protein was good ordered with extra bok choy. Green Curry with pork ordered with extra eggplant was good but a little disappointing as the sauce was not creamy. Nice lady works hard inside the truck. Order online to avoid waiting.

Today after work I needed tofu noodles. I’m so glad I ordered delivery. Spicy & delicious noodles.
Amazing food and very kind chefs. Mango sticky rice is outstanding.

Ordered pick up and had the pad kee mao. 3 stars because the spicy was in fact spicy but beyond that just super uninspired. If they got Thai folks cooking, I would encourage them to use some of their incredible spices. Noodles were super flaccid and limp. I did enjoy the Tom kha! Maybe this spot is it and Pad Kee Mao just ain’t their top dish.

We ordered take out. The food was tasty and fresh. Hard to rate atmosphere because it’s a food trailer. The chef was welcoming as she cooked our order.

AMAZING! We just moved to town from SC and had been missing our favorite thai place. We were trying every place around S Austin and had been severely disappointed until we found Thai Essan! The food is fresh and the sauces seem to be clean as I don't get an upset stomach. There are plenty of vegetables included. The tofu texture is bomb! The portions are great, and the price is fantastic for this quality of food! 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!

Horrible taste and flavor. Not sure what it was that we tasted. And the prices were that of a restaurant.
