Pad Thai Restaurant

Lin Brann

Please note, as of July 2022, they are still doing Carry Out only. This is one of the best Thai restaurants in Richmond. The food is consistently good since the day they opened. The portions are good and the prices are reasonable. It is a family owned restaurant, you often find the husband or their son at the front. All the delicious dishes are cooked by the wife, once she told me that she learned how to cook from her mom. We have been coming here for sixteen years. Pad Thai is truly a hole in the wall. A small dining room right off Meadowbridge road and right next to the railroad. If you are lucky, you get to experience the sound and vibration when a train goes by. The owners have built planters around the front entrance and filled with spicy Thai pepper plants. This is also where you can get real spicy food; the heat level ranges from Mild, Medium, Hot, Extra Hot, to Thai Hot. My favorite dishes are Crispy Duck, Chicken Red Curry, and Drunken Noodles. It might be out of your way, but you really should give it a try. Right now, they are doing take-outs only. Inside the restaurant foot traffic marked clearly with silver arrows on the floor to minimize physical contacts. Be aware that they are closed from 2 PM to 4 PM.

Stopped by to pick up lunch. This restaurant is only open for takeout. When I stepped inside and it smelled musky and old. The food was not good. I eat Thai food any time I’m in Richmond and this restaurant does not live up to expectations. I will not return.

Hidden gem well worth going out of your way for. Good portions, prices, and not afraid to skimp on the heat!

The only bad thing is, this is the only Thai food you’ll want from now on. I’ve had plenty of Thai food at other places and it just disappoint. The best dish I’ve had is there crispy spicey duck. Also a big fan of there drunken noodles. They grow there own hot peppers right out side. When you ask for spicy the actually deliver. It doesn’t look like much from out side but who cares, it’s the best Thai food money can buy at a very good price.
