We finally had a chance to try this place after driving by so many times. We visited on a Saturday around 1145. We ordered spring rolls, pad Thai, and pad kee mao. The pad Thai was unlike any I’d ever had. It didn’t have a lot of sauce but the flavor was amazing. It had some crunchy bits, and a decent amount of chicken. It did have some fatty pieces of chicken which was kind of ewww, but I easily overlooked it because it was so good. Pad kee mao also amazing, best one we’ve had central/north area of Oahu. Food is very reasonably priced and large portions. Ambience is ehh, you have to eat outside at the tables near the parking area. Oversell, I’d recommend. We will go again, for sure.

Nice little spot to grab Thai food if you're in the area. You can either eat inside or outside. I got the Padh Thai which I found to be a great deal for the amount served. I also had one of the spring rolls after slittingthe order with a friend. This is a really close place to the Ko Hana distillery, which makes it a solid lunch option after some rum tasting.The view of Honolulu is pretty legit too.

Hands down the best food that we have eaten in Oahu. I almost turned around and tried something else, but I'm so glad that I didn't. We paid $28 for three entrees that our young family of five could not even finish. (Even though we wanted to!) If I would have paid double I would have been totally thrilled. Food on Oahu can be pricey, so we couldn't believe that we ate the best quality food for the cheapest price yet. Fresh, insanely delicious, food. I would eat here every day. A little extra drive from mainstream North Shore eats, but you will be glad you went. The pad thai and the curry were amazing. The fried rice was filled with fresh vegetables and cooked to perfection. There should be a line down the street.

The food it's amazing! Great portions, great taste and real cheap. It's a bit remote because it's far like really far... You have to eat outside or for take out. Outside it gets really windy although the view it's beautiful. I'll recommend it for takeout. If You're around it's worth it.

Delicious food and very close to schofield barracks. Staff was very friendly. Serving size is big enough to leave you completely satisfied. And the food tasted great!

So unassumingly good! We weren't sure how good it would be, being connected to a golf course. We got the pad Thai and chicken fried rice. Both were so so good!!! Mild and not spicy, but you can probably ask for spicy. The pad Thai noodles were thin and drier than what we're used to, but they were beautifully coated in crushed peanuts and so much flavor. They had so many extras in the box too. Great prices too! Won't break the bank. It's nice they open so early so we can grab it on the way to the beach! You can call and order ahead too. We've been trying not to go to places twice until we've tried places for a good year of living here, but my husband is already asking about going back tomorrow!

We ran into this independent restaurant after coming back from the North shore. Tried their shrimp Pad Thai and Chicken Penang Curry, both are delicious. Pad Thai was well seasoned and curry is hearty with a nice spicy kick. Truly a gem!

On our way to South shore and saw this food truck by the road. A delightful surprise. Pad Thai was great. Beef salad was delicious. Portions are on the small side though.

When she used to be in waialua I was a regular, I always came by after school and ordered my favorite dish. I love the grapow muu! It is always cooked to perfection and the owner is so sweet and kind! After she changed to a different location and I moved out of waialua it’s been awhile since I’ve visited. I came today and of course ordered the usual! It always hits the spot! 😋 keep up the amazing job 👍🏻

Every dish is excellent. We met a local who eats there twice a week. I wish we would have found this place sooner on our vacation. Two of us ate filling, delicious, home-cooked meals for $13! Everywhere else in town cost us around $25. The owner is very kind and personable. I highly recommend eating this amazing Thai food!

Visited here on a whim. My siblings and I still talk about it. The best food from a food truck I have ever had. And not by just a little. The portions? Very generous. For ten bucks, are you kidding me? Great value. Hawaii had a lot to offer... And Nui's Thai is on my list of places I will go to on my next visit. The only negative is that it is located away from everything, so it may be a bit hard to find. My advice? Find it, eat it, enjoy it! You'll thank me later.

We happened by today, and stopped on a whim. Wow. This may be the best Thai food I've ever eaten (and I've spent many weeks in Thailand). Everything was fresh, generous and delicious. I thought my daughter had made a mistake by ordering the cashew chicken, as it is often sweet and boring. Was I wrong, as it had some of the most complex flavours I've ever tasted. If I lived on Oahu, I'd make the drive to Nui's on a regular basis.

We ate at Nui's in 2010 on our honeymoon. Greatest food ever. I've never had Pad Thai like this and all the curries are amazing. Nui is the sweetest person, so kind and friendly. We felt so at home and came back again for another incredible meal. You can't visit Oahu without stopping by Nui's.
