Edit: Knocking down to 1. Please don’t offer vegan options on your menu in this case if you are unfamiliar with preparing them. I’ve had plenty of vegan Asian food that has been delicious sans eggs (traditionally made with eggs as well). Vegan food can still taste good without eggs and unfortunately this missed the mark in both texture and flavor.
Ordered the pad woon sen and pad thai (both with tofu) and both dishes were unfortunately lackluster. Tofu was bland (and sparse) and tasted like it was just tossed in at the end rather than cooked with the food. Noodles for both dishes were mushy and stuck together. Will say they were efficient with preparing the order so that was a plus! Another plus is their options for selecting dietary restrictions when ordering. Don’t think I’d try anything else as both dishes were not satisfying in flavor.

Great local gem in Austin. Service was very friendly and knowledgeable about the entire menu. Very authentic tasting Thai dishes. Would recommend highly and would definitely return. Only downfall was mango sticky rice wasn’t in season!!
Vegetarian options: Forego meat and can get tofu or just veggies

Penang curry was delicious with fresh veggies. Kids fried rice was flavorful without being spicy. Good quality & quantity. Will be back again

Horrible customer service, as a first time customer I wanted to speak with someone about what I should order but the guy at the window did not want that. He prompted me to do it online or wait with a sassy attitude. As a food truck owner I would never run off customers that way.
DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY FROM HERE (on the website itself). If you’re going to get food only do it in person. I ordered here today and didn’t receive it so I contacted the restaurant. The person I was talking to was so rude. He kept making excuses and telling me to contact all these different companies and when I would do it he would tell me I was wrong. He refused to give me a refund and then offered to give me a gift card for the food truck after this whole interaction. I had to call my bank to cancel the payment. My friend is a regular customer and even she says she’s never going to return because of the extremely poor customer service. According to her, this has never happened before so maybe it’s just an off day.

I've done takeout or delivery from Wat Zab a few times. The food is really great. They hit the level of spice you ask for so that your kids are happy while you are melting your own face. Flavors, quantities, quality are all there. Excellent.

The man taking my order was very kind and polite and even offered to walk our food out to us because it was so hot out! Amazing food and amazing thoughtfulness from this food truck, definitely recommend them :)

food is heavenly and really good value. the vegetables are super fresh and splendid. all ingredients are high quality. The staff is so nice and is very focused on customer satisfaction. also if you ask for just a plain bowl of rice, they give it to you for free.
Vegetarian options: A lot of great menu options that have a protein option of tofu. or you can just have no protein.
Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly :). Staff are kind and appropriate. The area has a playground

I hate to leave a bad review but he closed literally after the guy in front of me ordered and he proceeds to tell me they’re closed.

This place honestly makes some of the best food I have ever had and that is not an exaggeration. The people that run the truck are so kind every single time and they have consistently produced outstanding and delicious results. We usually go for the Pad See Ew and the Panang Curry which are mind-blowingly good every time. They happen to be in the best food truck park in Austin for good reason. We frequent this place and you should too!

I always come here a few times a week to get some takeout during my lunch break. A 5 out 5 stars experience each time, the Panang Curry and Pad Thai are my favorites, but you cannot go wrong with the Green Curry either. Goes well with a fresh Thai iced tea too! Shoutout to Jeff for always ensuring his customers are well taken care of.
