Had to update my review and remove a star because since posting this just about every "to go" order we have placed has something wrong with it. I've ordered orange chicken and didn't get it, ordered it again another time and received plain breaded chicken with no sauce (had to make my own orange chicken sauce at home bc they were closed by the time I got home), ordered 3 chicken fried rice dishes and none of us could eat it because it was covered in it. That's happened more than once so we now ask for light on the pepper. I will eat just about anything at least once so

As with all restaurants, consistency is the key. My husband and I ordered takeout on Wednesday, Jan 5th. Unfortunately for the restaurant, they were almost empty. Fortunate for us though. I ordered the Orange Shrimp and my husband ordered the Royal Chicken. Both dishes were excellent, the Royal Chicken had the right amount of spice, the additions he asked for were there, the portion was great. My Orange Shrimp were cooked PERFECTLY. Crispy outside and succulent inside. In fact, we decided to order again on Thursday, Jan 6th, and I wanted more of the Orange Shrimp. On this night they weren't very

Having lived in Thailand, I love Thai food. Sadly this did not live up to expectations. The staff were helpful, efficient, and kind. The food was ready for pickup earlier than the expected time. The atmosphere of the restaurant looked cozy and inviting. The food though was underwhelming.
I ordered shrimp spring rolls and drunken noodles. The siding rolls were warm with leaf lettuce. This resulted in the lettuce being slightly cooked which added a very unpleasant aroma as you might imagine. The roll itself looked like a poorly rolled blunt, tapered at one end fat at the other end and was falling

Read the reviews, and I really wanted to like this place. Maybe, I had too high of expectations. I had the Seafood Green Curry, and I was surprised about how soupy it was. I also expected more seafood, but there was only one scallop and I believe no shrimp. Overall, the food was good, but not great. Glad I tried this place.

Finding decent Thai food isn't too hard, but finding great Thai food can be a challenge. This place has great Thai food, at least based on the two dishes I tried. One was the Green Curry and the other was Drunken Noodles. Both were excellent. If you're looking for a great place to eat after a hike or bike ride in Ute Valley, consider this place.

Anytime I visit anywhere, finding a Thai restaurant is a must. Unfortunately, there are no such places in Monument, CO. But there are many in Colorado Springs. So on our drive home from Pike's Peak, my hosts told me to pick one. Yikes! So, many to choose my one and only Thai dinner. Okay, Yelp, help! NaRai Thai was the prayer I decided, on a good one. I did! Even my hosts said yum, yum. The host of my vacation had Chicken Garlic Noodles, and my hostess had the Ginger Chicken (Which she gave me a bite of, and I may venture from my norm someday).
My norm is Thai Fried Rice with Chicken, NO

Went for lunch today and had the most wonderful dishes. Seriously the best Pad Thai we have found in Colorado Springs. Perfect amount of sauce, spice, and veggies. Their curry was also delightful. We’ve tried a few local Thai places and this one surpassed all of the others! It’s hard to find food worth reviewing in COS, so we are happy to have this as a little neighborhood gem. Excited for next time!

Cons.
1. The worst service.
The waitresse with blond hair, Megan did not check us on the whole time at all until she asked us if we wanted desert.
She even did not take an order. We waited for her for a long time and she did not show up. So we could order after raising my hand for a long time, another person who was cleaning took our orders.
Only four tables were occupied.
Megan served foods to a person who came 15 min after us first.
She gave a bill and left for home. We had to wait for a long time again until we finally talked to another new waiter.
The worst service ever!

I really don't understand how this place is '4 stars' and I don't care to find out. This is the best Thai food in town (IMHO). It's what I ate for my birthday and new years celebration this year.
My ONLY criticism is that the spice level can be pretty inconsistent. I'm sure that's because how fresh the food is so it's not a big deal to me, but if they had that nailed, they'd be *perfect.*
10/10 would recommend.

I've been coming here for a few years now I always like my food. As i've tried other places in town though I do feel like they are a little on the pricey side. Now I really only come here when I am craving fried rice because their fried rice is amazing. Their coconut drink is also super good. Cute place for a date night or family night but the restaurant is small so just be mindful of that.

Great service and great food! We started off with the crab rangoons; they were amazing. We followed that with our entrees I ordered the combination Pad Thai and my husband ordered the chicken Pad Thai at medium heat . Both dishes were fantastic, with big cuts of thinly sliced chicken and beef; servings are large. My only complaint is that I paid an additional $3.50 for the combination (shrimp, chicken and beef) and it only came with 2 shrimp that were extremely overcooked. Other than that, the food was excellent. We'll definitely be back.

We are at the restaurant and the food was fantastic. If that was the end of the review, it would be a 5 star. Unfortunately there was a 4 inch hair in the food and the whole place smelled sour dirty which was really surprising. It didn't look dirty but just smelled dirty. So the questionable smell and the hair in the food marked them down. But I've had pad see eew in 3 different restaurants in the past 2 weeks and this place beat them all by miles for quality, taste, and value. I'll come back and hope for the 2 issues to be resolved.

I ordered takeout from this awesome place last night and let me tell you, it was well worth the wait! At least a dozen other people were waiting to pickup the or takeout orders at the same time as I was. That was a sign to me that the food must be really good. It did not disappoint when we got home and sat down to eat. I highly suggest the Thai basil fried rice and pineapple curry! I can't wait to try other things on their menu. I will certainly be back!

I love this Thai place, it is my favorite Thai in Colorado. It is unassuming and tucked away in the back of Rockrimmon near the Safeway. The ingredients are always super fresh! When I order my usual (Thai Basil Fried Rice) I actually taste the Basil and it gives everything a mouth watering aroma. The bell peppers are always appropriately crunchy and the snap peas are a great addition to the dish. This place is my comfort food and it always brings me back home when I get to come here. The staff is always warm and welcoming as well as attentive.

Ordered lunch for pick up and tried their Beef Curry, Pineapple rice, Pad thai and mango sticky rice. Beef curry sauce wasn't as creamy or has a thick consistency as i expected it to be or as how i have had it in the past, it felt almost like it was watered down and ive had more potatoes than beef/meat. Pineapple rice & Pad thai (chicken) was delicious, i could say that these are my favorite at the moment! Rice was tasty and pad thai was flavorful! Would be ordering that again next time. For dessert, i tried the mango with sticky rice, which was also yummy esp the coconut milk over the

SERVICE: Was amazing and very attentive. The server was warm, professional, and informative. She read our minds when she approached us asking if we would like Thai Iced Teas! (I am sure it is super popular)
FOOD: I had the Basil Fried Rice Combo, Hot. Amazing and delicious, better than any Thai restaurant in Denver. I have eaten at majority of them. It had a perfect heat for being "hot". I am sure Thai hot would have been slightly overboard.
AMBIENCE: The decor is nice, very modern boutique-like with Thai/asian art in various areas. Good place for children, not necessarily quiet date

The pineapple rice is amazing and so is the royal chicken. Phenomenal flavor, not overpowering, and not so spicy that you can't taste the true flavor. The mild has a flicker of spicyness and the medium has a little spark. Both of which isn't so spicy you can't taste the food. The chicken was cooked to perfection and so were the veggies in the royal chicken. The pineapple in the pineapple rice is just amazing and adds the perfect balance to the dish.
Highly recommend!

I went here while on a business trip. I'm from San Francisco which has an abundance of great Thai restaurants so I'm familiar with the cuisine.
I was pleasantly surprised to find a Thai restaurant in Colorado Springs that was good and I'm grateful for that.
The prices are reasonable and the menu has a lot of items. It feels fairly upscale, but it's a good casual middle-of-the-road joint.
I think anyone will find this place very acceptable on many levels.

The reviews are true this place is good!!
Had the Pad Thai medium, drunken noodles easy, brown rice and calamari. Pad thai was good but a little too much peanut for my taste. Medium wasnt spicy really. The drunken noodles I did not like ended leaving them... not sure if it was the spicy level. The calamari was really good and the sauce they give you is excellent. Would certainly recommend it

How to lose a loyal customer (and knowing they are loyal because they asked if I come often).
I will not be returning. I eat here every other week, if not once a week. It's my treat. I always order the green curry. I decided to change it up. I ordered my regular curry with extra vegetables ($2.50) and extra rice ($2.00). I checked what O had inside. instead of a regular curry in a bigger container with more vegetables there was a bigger container, filled to the same amount. Less curry, just more vegetables. I paid $18 for 16oz of curry that is mostly vegetables. I spoke with the manager. She

Ahmazing!!! Thai food made to perfection. When we are on the road we try to order safe so we ordered the tom yum soup which was shrimp based and had a curry like flavor which just tantalized our taste buds. As main course we ordered the vegetarian green curry and the chicken pad kee mao and both hubby and me literally chose either of the dishes as our favorites. Both were perfect!
The green curry had a sauce that had the right amount of coconut and wasn't too thick and had very fresh vegetables. The flavors had intermingled well. The pad kee mao had a rich flavorful sauce and was truly drunken
