Mai Thai has some of the best Thai food I have ever had. My husband and I got the pad Thai and yellow curry, both with tofu and they were amazing. Especially the yellow curry! We also got the crispy spring rolls and fried tofu and both were great. We are both vegan and they were happy to accommodate. Lots of vegan options! Service was great. If we lived in Austin, we would frequent here.

Really remarkable restaurant. The pad se ew and pad Thai was pretty good. Even though there wasn't anything unique it was still delicious after having Tex mex food. In a decent location too very walkable from housing. Would go here again!

Service was fast and portions were big. Ordered a bunch of dishes and shared family style. Loved the Kao Soi! Tables were clean and orderly

So good I went back for more! Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mao were a little on the sweet side but otherwise full of flavour and a generous portion size at a reasonable price ($16). Chilled vibe inside, friendly staff, TV plays some random feel-good video channel Bviral which was delightful to glance at.

Great job Mai Thai! Coming back in the Austin city limits from the Texas Eclipse Festival and Mai Thai was our first choice to enjoy a tasty meal prepared with flavors of Love. Good for Vegan gluten free friends. Many thanks for all your services.Vegetarian options: Plenty Clearly noted on the menuDietary restrictions: Plenty Clearly noted on the menu

My pad see ew with tofu was easy to order online and ready much sooner than expected. Noodles could’ve been softer and slightly less heavy on the sauce, but otherwise good. Expect downtown Austin price of $16.

Nice Thai option downtown, but everything we got was pretty salty. Good portion sizes.
Overall a good spot but service is currently lacking. They have a notice on the door they are short staffed but we wanted to try anyway. We ended up waiting a fair amount of time but are happy we did as the food was great! Still, if you’re in a hurry, you may want to consider somewhere else as of April 2024.As I mentioned, we all tried the egg rolls and a mix of food and we all enjoyed our dishes. We had Pad Pak, Mai Thai Noodles, and a peanut based dish I can’t remember the name of.I took a few pictures but unfortunately am realizing now they came out horrible. Oops!

Was craving for Asian food and I decided to give it a try. This is the beat Asian place to visit in Austin. I'd definitely come back.Only problem was the wait time. However after the first bite I realized it was worth waiting for the meal.

THIS IS THE BEST THAI IN TEXAS!!!! If I am in Austin I absolutely will stop here, their food is killer!!! The only thing I’d say is be careful with the spice, even leave 1 packs a little bit of a punch! I always order the Pad See-Ew and I highly recommend it. Enjoy :)
