Stumbled on this place because we were in the area. The basil fried rice was delicious, and as a vegan it seems there are definitely options because she said the Pad Thai doesn’t have fish sauce. Service was very attentive and friendly.

Ka Prao - very tasty, spicy and a generous portion. Relaxed atmosphere and quick service. Reasonable prices.

I like trying Tom Kah soups of Thai restaurants to understand their seasoning. Overall, their seasoning is fine, just think they might overdo a couple of things. My dishes were fine but not fantastic. It is a solid spot if you are in the area. Service was fast and friendly, prices were reasonable. I wanted a hot tea and even though they didn't have the one I wanted they hooked me up with a nicer one!

Good food. Even better drinks! We loved the lychee mixed drink and the purple one my friend had was not bad either. The appetizers we had were absolutely wonderful! The entrees were good. The service we had was kinda weird, but once the guy started helping us service was better.

Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior, this restaurant packs a punch. The drunken noodles were fantastic.⭐ 5 ⭐ I chose the vegetable option and they were delicious. Silky smooth noodles in a savory sauce with an excellent bite. Fresh, crisp vegetables in the dish as well. The menu gives a 2 🌶️🌶️ spice warning but it wasn't very hot. Good sized portions, fills 1 American / 2 other nationalities. My party enjoyed their Pork pad Thai, Chicken Tom Kai Gai, and Flaming Beef as well. Service was excellent, prompt staff, with modest wait times. The atmosphere/decor won't win awards, but who cares, you're there for the food anyways, right? 😉

I recently dined at Absolute Thai Restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. The Thai cuisine was authentic and bursting with flavors. The service was efficient and courteous. I highly recommend trying their chicken wings and red curry. I will definitely be returning for more Thai culinary delights. 👌🍛🥢

Hidden gem within DC that's not well-known but serves delicious and authentic Thai food with perfect portions and incredibly kind staff. The space is cozy with some great options. Their Pad Thai has a little bit of a crispy flavor that other places are lacking and this was a highlight of the meal. Their Massaman Curry is full of flavor and their Eggplant Tofu was also delicious. Their fried banana and ice cream was not what I'm used to, as their fried bananas came in thin tubes, but the food still tasted good. Only downside is that they have disposable chopsticks and cups for water.

Just went here for the first time this week and it was terrific! Excellent amount of both heat and flavor. Red curry and drunken noodles we had were both delicious were the fresh garden roll appetizer. Our server was wonderful - excellent service and he was super nice and gave great suggestions for our dinner. Definitely going back!!

The food here was excellent - wanted to try something new so started with the yum woonsen talay appetizer which was a cold seafood salad with cellophane noodles. It did not disappoint! I recommend that if you want to try a new appetizer. It’s not too heavy either so perfect to save your appetite. For my entree, I got the Massaman yellow curry with tofu and it was a good portion, comes with plenty of jasmine rice. My friend was raving about the salmon. The Thai tea and Thai coffee are also good here. The service was quick, friendly, and helpful. I was surprised at how few people were there during lunchtime.

The food was delicious! I got the garden rolls - tasted fresh and with delicious peanut sauce. I also got “Jungle” which was soooo good. I got it with the seafood, hoped for more seafood though. The spice and flavors were all perfect, I ate it all! The roasted duck was tender and juicy.
