We order pickup from Pad Thai around 3 to 4 times per month and absolutely love this place. Excellent flavors, nice sized portions and overall very good value for money.Vegetarian options: Most dishes that we've tried work well with tofu.

Decently sized parking lot in the back. Their strength is definitely appetizers. Chicken satay is great and comes with refreshing cucumbers. Fairly priced drinks.Overall a pleasant experience and I will definitely be back to try the egg rolls and pad Thai.

I never leave reviews, but tonight I had to. I placed an online order at 8:25 and our food was ready in literally, I’m not exaggerating, 6 minutes! Since I moved to MN, Pad Thai has been a staple, with consistently great food and great service on each and every visit. And tonight was above and beyond!

Pad Thai is one of the best Thai restaurants in the twin cities area. Absolutely has the best Massaman curry and fresh spring rolls. Great vegan options as well.

The atmosphere is shabby chic, and the service is phenomenal! Our server was a ray of sunshine as we were tired. The food came out hot and fast and spiced superbly. Drunken noodles ? ?! The lack of a noticeable sign outside and the crowd inside speak to its popularity and consistency.

Ordered takeout. Was on time, packaged well, and delicious. Plenty of protein in the curry. Felt like a great value.

We've been coming here for a handful of years and have never had a bad meal or experience! My favorite dish is the yellow curry with fried tofu and my husbands is chicken pad Thai. We always get the cream cheese puffs and fresh vegetarian spring rolls. The portions are heavy enough that you could share a dish with another person, or have a second dinner to take home! You can choose your spice level which I love! The staff work so hard to make sure you have a nice meal. It's a ma & pop kind of business so it always feels good to enjoy a meal there. The ambiance is authentically Thai with beautiful scenery and comfortable booths and tables. We've gone with large groups and just us two, no matter what we always have a great experience. We used to live in the cities but have since moved to the suburbs but whenever we are in the area we make sure to grab food at Pad Thai!Vegetarian options: You choose your protein for every dish, can do vegetarian or tofu.Parking: Behind restaurant plenty of spaces and street parking.

Our experience was absolutely delightful! We tried a variety of dishes, and each one was a burst of flavor. The Pad Si Yew was a favorite, with its perfectly stir-fried noodles and tender chicken, and the grilled chicken with peanut sauce was an exciting twist. Those vegetarian spring rolls were crispy and fresh, a great start to our meal, and the Thai tea was so refreshing. The place had an authentic feel, the service was spot-on, and I can't wait to go back for more of their delicious Thai dishes.

Lovely little Thai restaurant in a beautiful neighborhood. The server was extremely efficient, although the kitchen seemed a bit slow. It's not the tastiest green or red curry I've ever had, but with the prices and portions of the weekday lunch, I'm positive I'll return.

Super fast service. The place was super busy when we went, but no waiting for table and apps came out within 5 mins. The pad Thai which they are named for came out within 5 mins of the apps. Server was super on point and times my to-go order perfectly as we finished our meal. Very good experience. Only the pad Thai was a little too saucy for me? Good flavor though!Parking: On the back side of the building by the school/church by the curvy road is their parking, not sure about peak hours but parking is good from what I can tell.

Oof. Ordered the coconut soup. For $20 (I got the chicken) you get absurdly sweet broth with not a vegetable in sight. No cilantro, no carrot, not even a bamboo shoot! Come on man. Can't say I've ever had a soup that made me cough because it was so sweet. It was inedible and I felt bamboozled.
