8465 W Sahara Ave

No photos because we devoured everything! We were promptly greeted by our server. We were getting mixed vibes because the restaurant was a ghost town. But we were here and we were hungry. My bestie and I shared the Pad See Ew with shrimp, medium fire, and a bowl of Panag Chicken Curry (also medium fire). The heat was perfect! Enough to tickle your taste buds but not blow your palate. Portions were perfect leaving us satiated. A few more diners arrived and a few food delivery/pick-ups came through. Over all, dont sleep on this sleepy looking joint. It was DEEEELICIOUS. I might consider returning tonight for more! *casual *ample parking *convenient loc *friendly staff *clean

Yelp Review 2025 #225: My friends and I were in this area. After working out, we were famished. We have vegetarians in our group so, Thai food is always a good idea. It's casual and very laidback. The restaurant is pretty small but we came here after lunch rush so we had the place to ourselves. Service was friendly and of course, attentive being we were the only customers there. We started off with some egg rolls which were ok. I ordered pork belly and papaya salad and the dipping sauce was sweet, sour and a bit spicy. The rest of the group got tofu pad Thai, pad kaprao, and pad see ew. We all enjoyed what we got.

Quite possibly the best Thai restaurant in vegas. Specializing in Isaan cuisine which is much more intense robust usage of spices curries and chillies. Best menu item is their fried whole fish with their Isaan sauce that was spicy but very savoury and aromatic. Memories of northern Thailand ! The owners are boyfriend/girlfriend/married are amazing. I always ask the server how it is made and he described it in detail and how i would expect its taste. Also, not dosed heavily with msg, it had some that was probably in the sauces they import from Thailand.

Incredible service! Incredible food. I work just a few blocks down & we eat here at least once a week & the service is always outstanding. Highly recommend! Same staff works there, I believe it's a small family owned business. They always remember almost our entire order. So great!

Service was very good very fast and very sweet. Very small and quaint hole in the wall

This place was such a disappointment as we were expecting more because of the ratings Panang curry was terrible and we had to ask for rice to go w it as well as the Tom Ka soup. They even charged us extra for the rice Everything was onlt mediocre and so was the restaurant

It's been a while since I've had Thai food and this new place opened near me. The reviews have been good and Im decided to try it. I ordered the Thai pumpkin curry with chicken, one of my favorite Thai curry dishes. I was asked about spiciness on a scale of 1-5. I chose 3 but it will be 4 next time. The woman brought me my Thai iced coffee and a glass of water. When she brought the curry, she also brought a plate with a large scoop of rice. The curry was very flavorful. Lots of chicken and a good amount of pumpkin cubes. The spiciness was OK, but I really should up it one another time I go. The restaurant is very small. There were some take oiut orders while I was thewre. It is run by a couple who are local and it's always good to support locally owned businesses.

This little Thai restaurant is located in the strip mall at West Sahara and Durango where Smart & Final is housed. It has only been open for about five-six months. The restaurant has just six tables but I'm confident they do most of their business in take-out. Since my hubby and I drive past this location several times a week, we wanted to try it. It was DELICIOUS! Hubby had Pad Thai, and I had veggies with fried tofu, something that is not on their menu, but they happily accommodated me. This was a major plus in my book. We also ordered some fried shrimp rolls which were excellent. They were larger and tastier than others we have had. There is a lunch menu available and while it is limited, I'm sure the food is yummy. The best part was their pepper sauce that is included in their condiment tray. It is outstanding! Not too hot where you can't taste your food but hot enough to get your attention! The menu is quite extensive, and we look forward to trying other options that looked tempting to try. I would highly recommend.

We were looking good Thai food and we found it! Naka, isn't very big but don't let that fool you because their food packs a flavorful blast! Paanang is my go to meal whenever I have Thai and I think it's a great scale indicator (maybe I'm wrong but my taste buds say I'm oh so right). My partner had chicken pad thai and was more than thrilled with his dish.

Humble Thai restaurant. Solid Penang Curry with tender fresh thinly sliced chicken with perfect consistency in the Penang sauce. Same fresh and tender garlic chicken with mushrooms and cilantro. Excellent flavor with perfect balance. Complements to the chef and courteous staff.We will be coming back here for sure!

This is a new place. In the competitive nature of Vegas, you need to wow guests especially if you're new. Unfortunately it didn't. While the food was tasty... it wasn't anything to rave about. Service was small shop normal. The restaurant felt a little cramped but it was ok. Recommend? Neutral. Personally, no. You try it yourself and see if it's to your personal liking. Nothing bad. Nothing good really either.

The food was great. Had the Pad Thai so I could compare it to our "usual" Thai restaurant that we go to. The portion was great and I will definitely be coming back!

Pad See Ew is fantastic! Google says,... "Pad see ew is a popular Thai stir-fried noodle dish. The name literally translates to "soy sauce stir-fried noodles". The dish is made with wide rice noodles, protein, vegetables, and a sweet brown sauce. The primary flavor comes from soy sauce, and the dish is often based on Chinese broccoli. Pad see ew is salty and balanced with a touch of sour and chargrilled flavor. Pad see ew is different from pad thai and drunken noodles." Owned and operated by young authentic locals

The second we walked in we were greeted with a big smile! The place was empty which is such a shame because the food is sooo good. We ordered potstickers, rad na & pad prik khing for our dinner which were all very decent portions and the seasoning/flavor was perfect. For dessert we ordered the coconut pudding which was so good we found ourselves wanting more at the end of it so definitely order one per person :) Overall, great service and great food... I would definitely recommend checking them out!

Naka Thai Kitchen is a hidden gem located on Durango and Sahara behind Del Taco near Smart N Final. There's ample parking. Soft opening was on February 8, 2024. Interior is modern with around six table seating to accommodate a small group of 3 to 4 people. Menu offers a nice selection of noodles, fried rice, curry, entrees, and chef special. Potsticker (6 pieces fried, $7.99) is very delicious! Super light, airy, crispy, has ground chicken, shiitake mushroom, and water chestnuts stuffed in a dumpling, served with dumpling soy sauce. Pad Thai ($10) is good and has a nice sweetness from stir fried rice noodles, it has egg, beans sprout, scallion, and peanuts. There's option to add protein which is an additional cost. Garlic Eggplant ($10) is flavorful and so good! It has sautéed eggplant with veggies of cabbage, onions, broccoli, and cilantro in garlic sauce served with steamed rice. Love the garlic sauce, yum! Desserts offered are Mango sticky rice and fried banana. I had Thai Iced Tea ($5) which has a lovely sweetness and is very delightful! Service from owner Champ is friendly, pleasant, welcoming, and accommodating. He has a family-owned business in St. George, Utah for 4 years called Banana Blossom and decided to expand and open a restaurant in Las Vegas.

Never been here, so thought we would give it a try. Ordered 2 Pad Thai dishes off the menu. $14.50. Food was OK, not great, not bad. Bill arrived, and saw that I was charged $16 per, instead of the $14.50. When I pointed this out, the server said "Oh, that is the old proice. We haven't changed our menu yet." Now, If he would have offered to correct the bill, I probably wouldn't have written this, but his attitude was "Got ya! Sucks to be you" BAD FORM One and done.

Just an FYI - the menu you see on Yelp is out of date now. New management bought the place and the prices are much higher. A little disappointed because we were looking forward to trying another affordable Thai option. Let's talk about the food. I got a pad wood sen. The flavor wasn't bad, but the portions were small and the chicken was dry. Also got a Tom yum soup. For $15.50, the portion was small and the soup was lukewarm. I couldn't taste much flavor other than the galangal. It seems like they're still working out the kinks, but honestly there are a lot of better Thai options in Vegas. I'd skip this one.

Outstanding takeout spot for lunch! Their website was smooth to navigate on my IOS phone. I ordered the Pad Woon Sen with tofu with spicy level three. The noodle dish was immensely delicious with Al dente bean thread noodles, accompanied by fresh veggies & pieces of fried tofu. Upon arrival, the super friendly male server smiled & greeted me. The inside looked like it was recently remodeled with modern decor. Small but cozy seating area. I was very impressed with my first experience here, and will definitely try other entrees in the near future.

You must visit this restaurant for authentic Thai cuisine! I've tried many Thai restaurants in Las Vegas, but this is my second time here, and the food is just as excellent as it was last time. I give their food a five-star rating!

I'm from L.A and looking for Thai Southern Food. A hidden gem restaurant which is out from the Las Vegas Strip. Food here is very tasty and delicious . Service is great. I would recommend this restaurant who is looking for a real Thai food.

We are the Thai food lovers. We love to enjoy Thai food so we recommend Naka Thai Food because the food is so yummy with traditional Thai food taste, authentic food, spicy food with your favorite level. The best food ever.

Food and service were amazing! We're out-of-towners looking for some yummy Thai food and this place hit the spot. Chicken satay, Pad Thai, Papaya salad, and more. So tasty and great portions. Will definitely go again!

This place is really good and very affordable. I would start off with recommending this place. Its a small and cozy place but the food is really great. We happen to find this place by just searching Thai food. The first time we planned to eat here, we arrived only to find out that they are closed. So, i would suggest to call if you plan to eat here to be sure if they are open. I ordered the crispy chicken and it was so good! For the price, they are very generous with the serving. My husband ordered the Panang curry, very good as well and generous on the serving. Our appetizer was the Beef Jerky and it was delicious as well! Overall, everything was good. My friend ordered the Thai tea and found out they give free refills which rarely happens in some restaurants. Im just amazed that there are still restaurants like this that is very affordable with their menu and yet its good. So its highly recommended for people who love Thai food.

We came for the pad Thai after reading the Yelp reviews. Great little restaurant with very good prices and excellent service. The Chicken Pad Thai was flavorful, but the real Fried Tofu Fried Rice stole the show. I am usually parcel to Chinese fried rice, but the flavor and texture were the best I have had! By the time I took my camera out to take a picture. The Pad Thai was still there, while the fried rice had already been devoured. The Yelp reviews were spot on and this is a GoTo place when you are craving Thai Food!

Great authentic southern Thai food and great service! It's my family favorite and definitely a hidden gem. They just opened so please show them all the love and support.

Food was great! Would def recommend! When you tell them spicy, they do not disappoint! And I'm glad they're able to make dishes Laos style! Will be going back for sure!

Ordered Ras Na and unfortunately was really bland and not spicy at all. Hard to find good thai food the last few years

Cute little spot. I got my food to go, so I can't comment on the service. I got the beef panang curry. Spicy 3/5. Would have went with a 4, as what I got wasn't very spicy at all. The flavor of the curry was pretty good, it may have been missing a little sugar, but it was good. The beef however was NOT good. I had to feed most of it to my dog because it was sooooo chewy. Didn't seem worth the $20 after tip.i don't know if I'll go back. But if I do, staying clear of the beef.

Decent quality ingredients but not prepared well. Pad See Ew was almost flavorless and the orange chicken was as well plus it wasn't cooked long enough - mushy breading. The included dumplings were good but nothing special. There are better options.

The food was outstandingly delicious. We had the chicken pad thai, chicken panang curry and fried pork belly. All was delicious!!! Thank you to the owners and he's team

Great price and tasty! I've been going to Thai Legend ( formerly known as King and I ), but every time I go, after the tip and tax, $20 for just a pad see ew. So I decided to try this new place, and it's so much tastier, better quality, and cheaper. I highly recommend this place!

This place is disgusting. It's new, but they already changed ownership twice. So who ever the current owners are have only had it for two weeks. That is what the waiter said when I asked why the menu was different than the pictures. The prices are way too high for what you get. $16.00 for pad Thai in that neighborhood is wild. It isn't the $10 shown on the menu. If it was good, I wouldn't mind paying but it was horrible. No flavor, no spice even though I ordered it the spiciest that had. This place won't last long before new owners take over again. Don't waste your money.

Best food ever. Tried this today and I recommend it to everyone in Summerlin. Been here for mother's day to support the new family food store in Summerlin and i don't regret it

Wow !!! Our new favorite Thai restaurant !! It even converted my husband !!! We had pad thai, pad prik king & thai iced tea !! The best Thai food we've had so far in Vegas !!!

The chef here is outstanding! So far, the Pad Thai and Pad See Ewe (medium heat) were extremely flavorful with blazing heat. Highly recommended!!!!

Great food at good prices, friendly service at this tucked away little place. What's not to like?

The worse Thai restaurant by far. Horrible inside out. They put tons of MSG in the food. Very small portions and overpriced. No air conditioning in the dining room. Server is very slow and rude. Cook made a mistake on the food and refused to remake.

Family owned restaurant ,very tasty food clean, open late on the west side , 10:00 on weekdays 1:00 on weekends, that's nice we don't have to go all the way to the strip to get good Thai food, both owners are very friendly.

Hands down on theirs special menu, homemade curry has to be the best!! Everything else was delicious, location is perfect, easy access, service was great and we all had complimentary desserts that made from the chef at the end of our meals.... Thank you Naka for the best meal and exceptional service you all provided, definitely will return.

I love this place, The food is tasty and authentic. The Tom Kha soup is amazing. The restaurant is family owned, and the staff is very personable. I think the place is better than Archies or Legends. If I could make a suggestion, I think they should try and make the storefront more appealing and inviting. From the outside, it looks like a hole in the wall, but those are usually the best places for dining.

Are you looking for real Thai? How would you get real Thai if those foods wasn't make by Thai. This place made foods fresh to the order. And owned by Thai couple. Guarantee the food is authentic.

A family owned small business. Owner has very good quality, authentic Thai food. I would recommend the spring rolls with peanut sauce as well as other authentic foods that they offer.

My husband and I have been searching for the best Thai food in Vegas when we moved here from LA. And after 4 years of searching, we have finally found it - Naka Thai Kitchen is the best we've had in Vegas. So glad we found it! The food, service and ambiance was

Tastes authentic. Quiet place. The staff is friendly. Price is appropriate for the serving. Portion size is big. Good for 2 people.

We found this place on maps searching for local Thai. We thought the food was great, clean space, and excellent service. Especially liked the curry, pad prik king and mango sticky rice. Yum! We'll be back.

Great food. Love the Yakisoba noodles as they are not overly mushy and oily. Very friendly staff. Also the most tender Fried Calamari, have had it several times and it has never been chewy like some other restaurants.

We ordered take out from Naka for the first time. The food tasted good, but was not as spicy as we are used to. We'll try it again, for sure!

This is a new Thai restaurant worth visiting. Food is delicious! The curry is my favorite, but everything I've ordered/tried has been very good. Definitely stop by if you're in the neighborhood.

Awesome and delicious Thai food. Great service and friendly. Owned by real Thai family.
