So tasty, what a gem!! I ordered the CURRY LAKSA NOODLE Soup, pictured. It can be all plant based - I asked for mushrooms, spinach and broccoli to be added/substituted for the chicken, and with no hesitation they accommodated me! I'm so pleased with this Union Station fast casual option, located on the second level. If you take the stairs opposite the Amtrak ticket counter, you'll find it with big open air seating. This dish also includes tofu, vegetables, rice sticks & egg noodle combination in a coconut curry broth, with bean sprouts, fresh! green beans, and corn. Amazing, and spicy warm. They have non spicy foods, too. I'll upload the current menu.

Awful. I got the Thai fried rice. The shrimp aren’t deveined and the chicken was dark meat and not fully done. disgusting to say the least. A waste of $16

Great option for eating in Union Station. Quiet spot relative to the other locations on the other levels.. Attentive service, specially considering there was only one person waiting tables. Food was good and better than me expected. We ordered crab wonton, yellow chicken curry, and chicken dumpling soup.

Great food and service! I got the Singapore noodle (a favorite of mine) and they made it well and quickly. The waiter and staff were pleasant and the location was nice. Highly recommended for if you want a delicious meal before your train takes off. Plus, the area it's in (higher level) is quiet and peaceful- it's nice to get away from all the train hubu - but still just several minutes from the tracks. Nice find in Union Station and will definitely return!

This was phenomenal. I ate here with my family when our train was delayed— it was fantastic. The service was great, the food came out in a timely manner, and the food itself was delicious.

Can't speak for all the food, but the pork tonkatsu was not very good. The gyoza was burnt. Service was good. You're better off going to the food court below for food.

One of the coolest DC locations to grab very good curry or Filipino dish while sitting comfortably just beneath the grand, Greco-Roman arched ceiling of busy Union Station and watching commuters passing by below: some walking, some on the run as they catch their trains. Pounce!

This is one of the better restaurants in Union Station. Their service is efficient and consistent which is helpful if you want to catch a train. I find the fried rice particularly tasty. You can also tell them how much spice to add in the dishes and they are very accommodating. The basil based dishes are also very good. This restaurant will satisfy your Chinese/Thai cravings.
