“ Best Thai place in Portland. The couple who own it are just lovely and kind. The food is delicious. I appreciate that the spice level is accurate. They are so friendly and most dishes come with a veggie spring roll! ”
“ The people are friendly and the food is fire! Worth the trip to get testy veggie rolls and pad Thai! ”
“ If you're at the strip club at 2 am and are craving Thai food, this is your spot lol. Wait times can be long as she only has 1 pan and makes 1 dish at a time. There were 2 people ahead of our 2 person order and it was about 45 min for us. But luckily they are in the parking lot of a strip club where they suggest you can go wait (wonder if they get referral bonuses hmm?) ”
“ Great Thai food cart. The owners are real sweet people. Portions are good size. I'd recommend Ad Thai! ”
“ Hands down, one of my FAVORITE food carts in PDX! I get off the plane at 10pm and I crave Thai food, and of course, they're open! And of course, it's an amazing satisfying meal every time! I often get their noodle dishes like pad see eiw. They are also a wonderful family!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR BEING A GEM IN PORTLAND!!! ”
“ The best late night Thai food you will find in Portland. Also the owner is so kind! We came really late one night and he was still willing to make food and was friendly. The food is really flavorful and it's a great value for the price. Never had a bad thing here. It's a food truck so didn't expect it to be as good as it was. I will say it has a kick, so be forewarned if you need it on the less spicy side, ask for mild :) ”
“ BEST THAI FOOD! Very authentic! I'm from San Francisco Bay Area I love eating Thai food! The owner Sone or Sune and his family do amazing job! And have the most kindest friendliest smile! I have so much respect for them! Their family has been in Portland since 1981! They make the best Thai food! Best Thai tea! I ordered pad Thai with tofu shrimp and chicken! And I ordered the crab puffs delicious! Also comes with a eggroll with a purchase of $13 or more I think but best home authentic Thai food! Took amazing pics one night I was adventuring Portland cause I just moved to the pacific north west and I needed food after dancing and they were open! They were so good! Sorry I didn't take a pic of Thai tea... I drank it so fast it was sweet and not too sweet or too much tea. It was perfect! Thank you sune/sone and his family I will be back! You all were so sweet to me especially since I'm new to town :) Go visit the BEST THAI FOOD AROUND :) ”
“ We were visiting Portland and saw this cute little food truck near our hotel. I can't speak on the actual entrees, but the mango sticky rice was out of this world! The owners were friendly and it was open late, so that's a plus. ”
