I always look for a good restaurant and this one is really good!! I felt that I was in heaven while I was eating dried chili cashews with thai ice tea, then I had a pumkin custard, so fresh and tasty. The service was also very good.

I had an excellent evening at Pad Thai. I was really craving Thai food and I got exactly what I was looking for. It’s agreed that the staff is a little on the strange side, but that just added to the Atmosphere. The prices were reasonable and all left satisfied. I look forward to more fantastic meals in the future. I’d recommend it to anyone.

Nice place with good Thai food. Polite service - no complaints there.

Definitely a mixed experience at Pad Thai. We heard amazing things about a delicious 3 course fixed price option, but we arrived and found a blank page in the menu previously occupied by this special. Upon learning they weren't offering the dinner special, we ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees from the menu. Everything was good, but nothing really impressive. I ordered the "hor mok tofu," which was theoretically "tofu and vegetables steamed to perfection with red curry and coconut milk wrapped in a banana leaf," an intriguing-sounding dish I haven't heard of before. The waiter then handed me a yellow plate of "masaman tofu curry," which was a) not what I ordered and b) was a different color than the masaman curry others had ordered. I asked if this was the "hor mok tofu," and he said yes. Not seeing any tofu or banana leaves, we asked a different waitress if this was the "hor mok tofu," and she proceded to poke my dish with a spoon, giving it a thorough-seeming inspection, then told us that yes, this was the tofu curry. Confused but hungry, I dug into my curry. There was no tofu, no banana leaves, and no redness- however, there WAS pumpkin, peppers, and yellowness- exactly the description of another dish, the "golden pumpkin curry," which again was okay, but not astounding, or what I had ordered. Upon receiving our check, we mentioned the mix up to a THIRD waiter, who looked at my dish, disappeared into the kitchen, and returned to assure us I had received the tofu dish. So basically, three separate workers could not correctly identify their own dishes, and apparently don't know the difference between tofu and pumpkin, or red vs yellow curry. Or that the customer is always right! The decor was beautiful, but given the average food and strange curry mix up, I don't know if I'd go back.

I really love this food. I like the presentation of the dishes. I just do not get enought of it. I always order twice a montth.

In honor of my friend's nineteenth birthday, my friends and I happened upon this place while exploring South Street, something we had never done before. The setting was calm (though perhaps this was due to our being the only customers), the service efficient and accomodating, and the food nicely prepared and tasty. I had green vegetable curry with a terrine of jasmine rice: delectable with just the right amount of spice and coconut essence. My friends were equally pleased with their various fried rice and crispy noodle dishes. For dessert, I happily stuffed a Thai banana split consisting of green tea and red bean ice creams, banana, lychee, longan, jackfruit, and chocolate sauce into my mouth, all for an understandable price (since reasonable for me is technically free no matter where I go-heh). I visit Philly too infrequently to guarantee a return, but I will certainly recommend this little gem to all who have a passion for Thai.

My wife and I were wandering down South Street and came across this place with a hancoring for some good Thai food this past Saturday night. Though they were full we were seated promptly. The portions were just right, the taste was right on, and we felt completely at ease with the friendly and attentive waitress. The decor was not imposing, though I did notice they had a large back room that appeared to be under some renovations. I must say this is the most underrated Thai restaurant in the city. A must for anyone looking for good Thai at reasonable prices.
