The boat noodle here is one of the best you can find in the Twin Cities. I always come here just for this one dish. Their egg rolls come in good quantity and also tastes amazing. Very small restaurant unfortunately so it can be difficult finding a seat during busy times. This place gets a 4.5 star in my books.

This review is not to bash on the food. But more so on their restaurant adequacy/mannerism. Me and my friend went for our lunch break. My friend received her food first, she slowly ate so mine can be served. As time went by my friend already finished her food and my food was still no where to be seen. I decided to cancel my order and at that point the lady at the register said “Oh your food just got done cooking and the reason we serve the noodle first because it was quicker to cook and oh sorry we are busy.” I told them I understand their busy but to come and eat is the point of eating together, who wouldn’t be upset if the rest of the party already finished eating and still you haven’t even been served your food at all. All I can say is bad management. You should never serve one customer at the table first when you know you’re too busy to serve the other customer at the same table. Came to support but left disappointed, waste of time and starved

The staff are great as well as the food. Ordered their pad thai and chicken wings! The dining area is a little small, but everything was neat and clean.

I made an order to go and it took forever. The noodles were over cooked so once I got home it’s all stick together and it doesn’t taste good anymore. The service and the foods weren’t as good as the former owner. Won’t be coming back.

One of the best spots for DELICIOUS Asian food. The Boat noodle is so delicious. The amount of protein given is a lot. The pad thai, drunken noodle, silver noodle dishes are amazing. I just discovered the dry noodle dish. It's now my favorite! The owner is very pleasant to be around. Highly recommend if you want delicious Asian food.

This place is awesome for Asian food. Good portion, good price, good quality. The only downfall is there isn't a lot of table and space when it's very busy. Always packed, I recommend going during the weekdays or early as you can.

Do NOT order HOT food here. The Karen people apparently take their spice VERY SERIOUSLY. I like spicy, but I cannot enjoy the 4 or 5 out of five on these dishes. 3/5 is plenty hot.Great food though.
Karen thai got the best boat noodles in St.Paul. I'll come everyday if i have to. You got to try it if you haven't. Inside is pretty small but it's worth it. Hit the spot everytime. Pad kra pao is a must too. Pho wasn't good at all.

I’m not from Minnesota, but I fell in love with boat noodles here. The restaurant changed owners, and I was worried about the taste, but it’s surprisingly good. I would reduce the sweetness a bit, but overall, it’s worth a visit, and I wanted to leave this review to give it a chance despite the change in ownership.

We got the whole fish and red curry. The curry was tasteless, watery and bland even though I asked for a 5/5 spice level. The fish was better ergo the 2 stars.

Got the boat noodles, some of the best broth I’ve had in a while. Truly a hole in the wall, and a gem! Appreciated how quickly a table was cleared for us, and how quickly the food came out. Soup had plenty of meat in it, excellent flavor.Parking: Plenty of free parking spots that are shared by customers of the various businesses on the block.
