The restaurant is kind of dumpy but the food was good.

As someone who is somewhat new to this type of food all I can say is, "Yes." It is really something to behold. I've been getting into asian food and this place has become my go-to spot. The flavors are great, everything is fresh, and the location is as modest as you can get. Have tried numerous menu items and have enjoyed them all. Four levels of spiciness is a cool idea, but I am weak for the heat and can barely handly the 'medium' level. Portions are large and the prices are very fair. Family run place and it feels like it - good, efficient, professional service. Usually eat here and then go for a walk in Phoenix Park. Always a good time. This place wholly deserves the accolades it has received.

The Red Curry is by far the best Curry you can find in Eau Claire. The Pad Thai is way better than at Shanghai.

SO DELICIOUS AND WONDERFUL! I have had to wait for a bit to get a table before but only because it was packed. Which is understandable since it's only the best food in town :D

Warning: Not vegetarian friendly. When out to eat here, we asked about vegetarian options only to find out that they use fish sauce in all of their dishes, so they do not have any vegetarian friendly dishes.

I am always satisfied after leaving here. I love that the menu pictures each dish and describes what's in it (down to the herbs) so I know if I'll like it or not. I try something different every time and have enjoyed it all.

By far one of my favorite restaurants in town. Great food, fast service, and great prices. The space they are in is a bit small, but I usually opt for take out. Thai Drunken Noodles are awesome.

I've been here many times and the food is wonderful, service is good, and prices are reasonable. The red curry dish is my favorite. They are also very accommodating to vegetarians.

Impeccable in every way. Food is fantastic, and arrives to you in a reasonable amount of time. The prices are also reasonable. I only wish that they were able to have a larger space, because when it gets busy (and it does get busy often, but deservedly so.) it can take a while to get a seat. Yet, you can opt for takeout if it is a busy time.

We found this restaurant one afternoon when we were in downtown Eau Claire and were hungry. After our first experience with the good food and friendly service, we go back whenever we have the chance. I need to start making a list of the menu items that we have tried so that I don't duplicate meals too often. I want to try them all.

People often say, "I wish there were a place in town to get good, vegetarian food." Pad Thai offers such a restaurant. 'Just enjoyed their #14 (tofu)stir fry last week and wondered--why haven't I come here more? Prices are reasonable and the portions are tasty and more than enough to eat. Friends ordered a dish & asked to split it and had two bowls of rice with their one order. They were more than satisfied. I preferred to eat my entire meal!

Thank heavens we have an ethnic restaurant in d.town EC that serves good Asian Food. Their soups are served hot and are filling. If you don't want to eat meat--this is the place to go. The stir fry is not overdone. You may have to wait awhile for a table at lunch hour. If you can get there more around 11:30, shouldn't be a problem.

Pad Thai might be my favorite place to eat in the entire valley. It's a small place, but the food will floor you. Basically, there's nothing I've had off of the menu that isn't the edible equivalent of Nirvana. The service is fast, the food, for all of it's amazing goodness, is mighty affordable. You need to eat here.

Love the pad thai - especially that it can be made mild to spicy as prefered. I especially love the local feel, even the price!

Pad Thai has great food, but I wish the atmosphere was a bit more inviting; it's such a small space. All the same, the great food makes up for everything else. The curry dishes, egg rolls, and Thai iced tea are delicious.

I just ate here for the first time and it is my new favorite restaurant. I would eat here daily if I could. It is relatively inexpensive and amazingly delicious. Yum. I want it right now.

After visiting Thailand for several months, I have always found it difficult to find authentic Thai food...anywhere! Pad Thai has brought something wonderful to the Chippewa Valley! Their entrees are very traditional.

Pad Thai is great!! It's simple, to the point, there are accurate photographs of the dishes, and they taste great! There's not as much variety as some metropolitan Thai restaurants, but since the curries, noodle dishes, and soups are so good, it doesn't really matter.

I love the red curry! The amount of food you get is amazing, but even better is how it tastes!

The atmosphere may be sparse but the food is amazing! I look forward to my pad see yew and egg rolls at least once a week. It's a bit of a hidden gem in the Phoenix Park neighborhood. Whether calling in for take-out, or eating in, the food is always amazing. The family owned business is run with a very limited staff so have patience with them. This is my favorite lunch location!

I love the food here. I moved here from Minneapolis where I had a great selection of Thai food. I rate this as top level Thai food. The soups are great and the use of fresh seasonings makes it great. The egg rolls are one of the best I've had along with the fried rice. Great job by the owners to bring Eau Claire a winning restaraunt. The decor could use a little updating but the food and owners are wonderful.

I look forward to ordering the Pad Wahn Sehn (sp?) all week. The food is amazing and you get a lot of it. Pat on the back to the family behind this unexpected jem in downtown E.C. I've heard people say the service is slow, but that's why you go around 4 or 5, before the dinner rush.

Like the previous reviewer said... we are TOTALLY addicted. Absolutely love the Tom Kha soup, Panang anything, Pad Thai of course, & egg rolls with the best dipping sauce!!!! The list could go on and on. We love the food, and we love the owners because they are working hard and making this food possible here in Eau Claire. We are willing to wait because the restaurant is small and the staff is overworked. It is always worth it everytime in my opinion. We love it that much.

A downtown favorite, this place gives new meaning to "hole in the wall". Once you go, you'll be craving it the rest of the week... be warned: you'll become addicted.
