Cassie Pitman

Definitely the best phad Thai I've had, yes there is a wait but it is completely worth it, make sure you get the special phad Thai in the omelette

Cheen The Curious

Padthai options range from basic or vegetarian THB60, to those fried with egg & deep-sea prawn THB90, to the full works which includes crabmeat , sliced squid & sliced green mango THB300!

Chris Meek

This is indeed the best Pad Thai I've tried in Bangkok. Note that they don't make chicken pad thai . Only shrimp or vegetation . I don't eat seafood , so I had the vegetarian and it was delicious.

Reb Sko

Pad Thai is very yummy. Wait is probably an hour as soon as it opens. It’s all seafood and the regular shrimp dish only comes w two pieces. A little rip off but still very good food.

Samuel Giddins

The pad thai is amazing. Went with high expectations, waited in line for half an hour watching them cook, and then our expectations were exceeded. The coconut and orange juices were also excellent.

Marat Galiev

A 0,33 bottle of Chang beer from SevenEleven across the street will support you while in the waiting line .

Cheen The Curious

This is another recommended version: your noodles wrapped in a thin layer of fried egg with big sea prawns . If you are curious, watch the skillful cook create this dish at the outdoor kitchen

Riri Grr

Not sure if it was the best here. Pretty decent, but you’ll definitely need the chili flakes , fish oil and lime to do the magic. Would be whole lot better if it was piping hot with more ‘wok hei’.

Luis Castro

There’s a big waiting line outside. But the place and the food is great.

Ariane

Word is that this is the best Pad Thai in Bangkok , and I couldn’t agree more! I ordered the “original” which comes wrapped in a scrambled egg . It was everything I expected! Highly recommend!

Rafa Larrañaga

I ate 1 1/2 superb Pad Thais but I could continue eating until my stomach exploded. They are the most famous Pad Thai cookers all over Bangkok and it's not by chance. Go there & have the best noodles

Ting

Rather than queue like crazy here for over-rated and mass produced Padthai , just go a couple of shops along the row for Jay Fai (#327) and experience the real fiery wok.

kay lam

Very thin scrambled egg wrapping moist yet chewy pad thai is a must-hv. For drinks, the ice coconut drink is amazing. Orange juice got very strong and intense orange flavour, yet it's a bit too sweet

Cheen The Curious

When telling your taxi driver to get you to "Thip Samai", a local said to also mention "...pratu phi phad thai ...", in order to be sent to the right place

Torzin S

The epitome of classic pad thai . Overall taste is sublime together with high quality ingredient and lovely orange juice !

Jihyun Won

Worth visiting every night. Recommend to visit after midnight to avoid long waiting line then you will await for few mins.

Cheen The Curious

Expect to wait up to an hour along the pavement in front of the shop. While waiting, grab a drink (beer , soda , cider , etc) from the convenience store across the road , or nibble on local snacks

Cheen The Curious

2-3 cooks frying padthai during peak hour mealtimes. Preparing such a big batch is not an easy task, to get each plate's consistency right

Cheen The Curious

Besides the usual condiments like cut chilli , locals also add crunched peanuts , sugar and to cut through the greasiness, bits of banana blossom (in background)

Foodtraveler_theworld

Tourist spot for local Thai noodle & street food . The taste is right for getting experience Thai taste but for me I don’t think it is the best one.

Forat

Had the recommended pad thai with the omelette on the outside, I wouldn't say it was the best pad thai it was just good, the iced coconut is totally worth it though!

Ivica

Great pad thai , they have also vegetarian/vegan version. Wonderful orange juice with pulp, you can buy it while standing in the queue for a table... and there is quite long one .

Cheen The Curious

Even after getting a seat, expect to wait for your orders to be served. They have seating on all of the first floor, and further in, even on the second floor! We waited about 45 minutes at peak hour

Punny Son

They have so many types of padthai , but the original is the best. Remember to try the orange juice , you will fall for it just like i did.

Foodtraveler_theworld

Very local Thai Style Noodle "Pad Thai ". It is very famous for Thais and foreigners so expect to get long queue. Orange juice is superb!

Chee Ming Jang

Other than Pad Thai is good, the orange juice is also good. Ask for the Orange juice prices as it fluctuates. Mine was 160 baht for the big bottle while a Pad Thai costs only 90 baht

Cynthia Lin

There's a line , but if you go on the Expique food tour , you get right in! Anyway, love the texture of the noodles ! But if you like it spicy , you'll have to sauce it up yourself.

Cheen The Curious

Extra fresh condiments to go with your fried noodles : bean sprouts for crunchiness; lime & banana blossom to cut through the greasiness

Cheen The Curious

Take note. If you are seated in the cooled rooms at the back, there's a surcharge

Jonathan McS

This is the place if you want a great place of pad thai . Go for the most expensive option with loads of crab meat and dried squid with big prawns (250 baht) . Worth every single Baht

Veronika Bagdanovich

Good Pad Thai but it's very popular place and have to stay in the queue for 20 minutes. Ask for chili and peanuts because they cook not spicy . Have not alcohol only orange juice .

Maria Alice Cabral Maia

Best orange juice I ever tasted. The superb Pad (80 baht) is perfect! Tasted that and the traditional one (50baht). I really wanna come back.

_ean_

Ordered the original and the wrapped with egg pad Thai ! Both are equally good, except the wait. We waited for like 45 minutes to get a table.

Samar Tony

Best phad thai you can eat in bangkok, prices are very affordable . Try the orange jus though the jus is expessive. A must try in bangkok

Yin

This is sooo yummmy, from the first bite til the last mouth, chewy rice noodle . Do order their fresh orange juice with pulp. Check out their outdoor cooking stations

Jamie W

Good god just order the pad Thai wrapped in egg and be happy forever. No line right after it opened but when we left an hour later it was out the door and around the corner!

Boris Gougeon

Supposedly the best Pad Thai in Bangkok . 90B for their supreme special, you'll wait a bit outside but worth it.

Christine L

You can't go wrong with any of the pad thai options. Definitely order the orange juice . The line can become super long, but it goes quickly.

No Leftovers Jackie Gebel

BEST Pad Thai in Bangkok - wrapped in egg omelet ! Get their freshly squeezed orange juice

Simon Opsomer

Food is indeed good and the line is long but there's no need to wait if you want to get take-away. Just skip the line and go to the special counter. You'll have your food in about 1 minute.

Cheen The Curious

Vegetarian version is fried without the prawn sauce, with mushroom slices, and if you want an egg with it or not

Angie Hwang

Get a bottle of their fresh squeezed orange juice for 160THB while you're waiting to get seated. Can't go wrong with the pad thai menu.

Akarsh Kottarathil

Excellent place. Would really recommend to anyone. Pad thai , Spring roll , Stir fry and the orange juice were amazing. 10/10

Stephanie Trang

Most delicious pad Thai I've ever had in my life ????. So yummy delicious. It's worth it to make the queue

Andrew P

The more deluxe pad Thai (with the bigger prawns ) tasted more rich and less creamy. Be prepared to wait 30+ minutes in line at peak hours.

David Noël

Where fresh orange juice sill means fresh orange juice . Oh, and the pad thai was an excellent addition also ;)

Ji Hwan Lim

It was our last day and we ran out of cash. Wanted to use credit card, but they didn't take it. Then a native family at the next table came out and just payed for us. How kind! We were truly grateful.

David Dayer

Espectacular. Best Pad Thai ! Orange juice is another great surprise. 100% recommendable

Ji

Ordered both superb and standard Pad Thai . Both are delicious but the superb was sweeter and not as tasty as the standard. Standard also came with tofu and scrambled eggs bits so in my opinion better.

Danielle Lancashire

The best Pad Thai i have ever eaten. Also be sure to try the coconut juice .
