Mai Thai

This was my 2nd time dining here. Last time no issues (a year ago). This time I ordered the larb and a noodle dish and after eating my food and paying I read the receipt and noticed only the larb was marked GF. When I asked server about it she said I only told her that item needed to be GF-which was not true because I am always very specific and always mention no gluten and celiac disease. Be cautious if you plan on eating here, I definitely got glutened.

Exceeded my expectations. I was a little skeptical but the reviews were highly rated so we gave it a try and I’m glad we did. They were very cautious and knowledgeable. I had the spring rolls and pad thai which was delicious.

2024 Update: Still order from here regularly with no issues!

2023 Review: I had the chicken pad thai with no issues. The waiter was pretty casual about me calling out my celiac, but reassured me almost every is GF and it's "super easy for them" to accommodate. This place might displace my go to Thai spot (Thai Fresh).

Also, my friends (who love spicy food) had other dishes at a spice level 3/5, and it burned their faces off haha So be mindful of that

Very enjoyable lunch. Great food and wonderful to be able to share dishes as a family. This is not a dedicated GF restaurant, however, both host and waiter were knowledgeable about celiac. Host assured us they are one of the best places in town to eat if you cannot have gluten. He did tell us to be sure and let the waiter know so that they flag it for the kitchen. My daughter (celiac) ate Tom Kha, Pad Cashew Chicken and Pad Thai Chicken with no issues.

So good! Has the spring rolls with tofu and Pad Cashew with chicken with white rice. Came out to $25ish after tax/tip

The sauce was really great, classic thai food so you can’t go wrong.

My service was excellent- they mark their menu so I found it easy to order. They answered the questions I had and I didn’t get sick after- highly sensitive celiac. 10/10 rec for a downtown meal!

I have eaten here several times trying several different items and I have not gotten sick despite being very sensitive to cross contamination. Gluten-free items are marked on the menu.

Chicken pad Thai. It was good. I tried to talk to the waitress about gluten free. I did feel a little brushed off—but did not get sick, so it’s positive. If you are a celiac who wants security, a manager to review your order…this is not your place.

Several gluten free options on the menu. Specify you need it to be gluten-free when ordering. Had the yellow curry with chicken. Tasty. No reaction.

I would say a good half of the menu is gluten free, and it was pretty good. I feel it’s hard to get a bad meal at Thai restaurants, it’s a good option that hardly fails

Delicious food with knowledgeable server. I was able to be accommodated for a gluten, dairy, soy, and bell pepper intolerance. Food was fantastic and well seasoned, even without the soy sauce.

My wife is celiac and also has a dairy allergy. They were very accommodating with both allergies and she felt great afterwards. It’s right by my work so we’ll definitely be going back

So their menu online doesn’t list gluten free, but if you go into the (super blurry) photos on yelp you can see they have a little circle with a wheat grass strand in it and a gluten free option at the legend for the icons. When I called the lady said they could do gluten free, but her English was very poor. She understood celiac though, so I ordered online and marked everything as for a celiac. Pad Thai was good, my boyfriend thought it was the best of what we’ve tried, and the other gluten free Thai places in Austin didn’t have gluten free pad see ew, so I was happy theirs was good and it was also better than at Ka Prow, which was the only other Thai place I tried that had gluten free pad see ew. The pad Thai was about comparable to super thai, but I did have mixed experiences there if you check my other reviews. The portions were kinda small for the prices though which was why I gave it four stars.
