Delicious Red Curry, Fast Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The staff was super friendly, and the food was delicious. My boyfriend and I ordered the Red Curry to go, and they were incredibly fast. The portion was also big, offering great value for what you get.

Poor customer service experience
My experience at the restaurant was marred by the harsh treatment I received from the bald Asian man with glasses at the cash register. He demonstrated zero customer relations.

Delicious Lunch Combos!
My experience at this place was fantastic! :) I loved their great deals on lunch combos, which are freshly cooked to order. I opted for combo A, which included pad thai, salad, and soup. Each dish was absolutely delicious.

Disappointing Service, Promising Food
I normally support small businesses, but I had a disappointing experience at Pawin Thai. After ordering takeout, I politely asked if I could sit and eat inside, as the restaurant was completely empty. I was told I wasn’t allowed to, which felt very unwelcoming and disrespectful as a paying customer. It’s unfortunate because the food seemed promising, but the way they treated me made it clear that customer comfort isn’t a priority here. I won’t be returning.

Delicious Curry and Pad Kee Mao!
I don't understand why this place is rated so low. I ordered the Yellow Curry and Pad Kee Mao, and they were both dope! The food was excellent, and I was very impressed with the flavors.

Hearty, Tasty, Spicy Food at a Steal!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The service was great, and the food was hearty, tasty, and spicy. I was particularly impressed with the flavor, especially considering the price, which felt like a steal. The atmosphere was also a highlight, rated at a 5. Overall, a highly recommended dining experience.

Delicious Thai Food and Great Coffee!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed the delicious Green Curry and the crab wontons. I also tried the Thai iced coffee for the first time, and it was great. I will definitely be back.

Incredible Yellow Curry - A Must-Try!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, primarily driven by the yellow curry. It's so delicious that it's become the only dish I order. Every bite is a moment of pure joy, and I often exclaim, "Oh my god, this is so good! " The crab ragoon was also a hit, being really crispy and delicious. The wait time was quick, and the service was great. While the interior is small, I usually opt for takeout. The photo shows the curry at home in a bowl I prepared.

Great Pad Thai and Lunch Deals
I had a great experience at this restaurant for lunch. I highly recommend the Pad Thai and the lunch special, which is a good deal. For the best taste, I suggest eating in rather than getting takeout. Be cautious when ordering curry, especially level 4 spicy and above, as they are very potent.

Disappointing Service, Great Food
My experience was degrading when I ordered takeout but decided to sit down to eat some of my food before class. As I was eating, the waitress stood over me with a disgusted look and told me I wasn't allowed to eat there and had to leave, with no explanation. I felt embarrassed and shamed, as if I had done something wrong. I apologized and said I would leave. If there's a policy against eating takeout food at tables, it needs to be politely explained. I love their food and wish I felt more welcomed to continue enjoying it. The owners and staff should show more respect and customer appreciation; business should be more than just a dollar.
