"You might think you’re lost before finally finding the parking lot of Little Thailand, located just east of the airport. Outside, you’ll find a red roof with gold trimmings that make the whole place feel like it was plucked off a movie set, but inside is a fairly bare-bones dining room. The pad thai is some of the best we’ve had in the Austin area—it’s slightly sweet, a little sour, and incredibly savory—but make sure to dive deeper into the menu of Thai specialties like the spicy ground chicken larb or the savory egg omelet fried to a dark brown finish and topped with ground pork. It’s also BYOB, but there’s nothing nearby, so plan your convenience store stop accordingly." - nicolai mccrary
"Okay, yes, this Thai restaurant is way out west in technically Garfield, Texas, but the trek is well worth it for some of the greater Austin area’s absolute best Thai food. Don’t miss the red curry with succulent roast duck and the bright pad gra prow (a meat and vegetable stir-fry). Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor dine-in services." - Erin Russell
"You might think you’re lost before finally finding the parking lot of Little Thailand, an excellent Thai restaurant hiding on a residential street in Del Valle, just east of the airport. Outside, you’ll find a red roof with gold trimmings that make the whole place feel like it was plucked off a movie set, but inside is a fairly bare-bones dining room where you’ll also find plastic replica models of all the items on the menu behind a glass display. The pad thai is some of the best we’ve had in the Austin area—it’s slightly sweet, a little sour, and incredibly savory—but make sure to dive deeper into the menu of Thai specialties and order things like spicy ground chicken larb or the savory egg omelet fried to a dark brown finish and topped with ground pork.
