Food was amazing! Parking, not so much. Updating my post since it's been about 8 years since my experience where the waiter ran after us asking for more tip. Other than that, food and service was good! Definitely changed over the time.

This is my favorite Thai place. The way they blend their spices. It's perfect. Everywhere else I go for Thai food, it's okay. Not that good compared to Ruan thai.

Truly, a hidden gem in Wheaton. We tried the rockfish with the chili sauce and basil. It was out of this world. Very flavorful. they give you rice and you put the sauce on it. It was fried perfectly with moist fish in the middle. go with someone who is skilled at deboning a fish as the restaurant does not do this. . We ordered the eggplant with chili sauce. It was great. The drunken noodles had a nice flavor and our favorite is the watercress appetizer with shrimp and calamari. We each got our own so we could take it home. The watercress is flash fried perfectly. I highly recommend going here, it is truly authentic and tasteful. Our WAiter was wonderful and it was pretty busy for a Friday night.

We have been trying to find a new Thai spot for a while and after getting many recommendations, we finally ordered from Ruan Thai. I ordered online and picked it up. I have been in this parking lot before for Ren's Ramen, and didn't realize Ruan is right next to it. That said, the parking lot is a cluster. There aren't many spots and people constantly double park, so watch out. Picking up the online order was a breeze, it was ready when I arrived. I kept it simple and ordered Pad Thai. It was really flavorful and the sauce was well-balanced. It was also a huge portion so I got two meals out of it. I will definitely order from here again!

This is our local neighborhood Thai restaurant. It's a small restaurant with consistently delicious food! We come her once every few months, usually for lunch. We started with the spring rolls and yum beau yang (sliced steak salad). Both were great! Spring rolls were nice and crispy. The dressing on the steak salad is so good, tangy with a little spice) that I wish they would sell it in bottles! We shared the pad talay and pad sa ew with chicken. The pad sa ew and pad Thai are my go to there, and are both excellent!

Such a hidden gem in the Wheaton area! I just had dinner here with a couple of friends. Here's my review breakdown: - Food: They did not miss on ANYTHING. I had the Tom Yum soup and #14 Yum Woon Sen. The soup was super flavorful and good, everything I expect from the soup. #14 was something new I decided to try. I am so glad I did, it was good and fresh. Definitely recommend that as an appetizer. My friend had the chicken pad Thai and it was perfect! When I say everything HIT, it was all good. - Drink: We ordered Thai teas and this place had the best Thai tea I've EVER had. Doesn't taste artificially or too sugary. I like being able to actually taste the tea. I would travel just for that tea again. Service: Remember it is a mom and pop shop so there was only 1/2 servers it seemed for the entire place. With that being said, they came over frequently and we usually made eye contact when we needed something. If you've made this far, i definitely recommend for you to check this place out!

One of the best Thai restaurants in the area. It's very popular among locals. We have been here many times, always go for our favorite dishes. Typical neighborhood restaurant without much fanfare. The prices were reasonable, the food was great, the service was courteous and efficient. 5*Yum watercress-Deep-fried watercress, shrimp, squid, onion, cilantro, and cashew nut in spicy lime dressing: this is a perfect combination of flavors and textures. This dish alone attracted us back and back again. 4*PLA PAD CHA-deep fried fillet catfish sautéed celery and the garlic in hot chili and social Thai sauce: the sauce was tasty and a bit spicy. The celery was cooked just right with a crunchy texture. 3*PAD THAI-Sautéed Thai thin rice noodle with shrimps, egg, ground peanut, red tofu, bean sprout, and spring onion: typical Thai dish, the portion was generous, but not very flavorful. 4*KHA NAH MOO KORB: Chinese broccoli was cooked perfectly, crispy and crunchy. The sauce was a bit heavy and salty. 3*PAD KHA TIEM PRIK THAI shrimp: cabbage salad with shrimps. The Thai pepper sauce was a bit spicy and addictive.
