Nong's Thai Cuisine

Nong's Thai Cuisine consistently delivers incredible flavors and warm service. We stopped in for dinner and were absolutely delighted from start to finish. We began with the Roasted Cashews, which were perfectly seasoned and addictive. For mains, the Red Curry was rich, complex, and comforting, but the star of the show was undoubtedly the Pineapple Fried Rice. Hands down, the best version we have ever had—perfectly balanced sweetness and savory depth. The drink pairings were spot on: I enjoyed a lovely glass of Pinot Noir that complemented the spice beautifully, while my partner had a crisp, cold Sapporo. Nong's is a true gem in Golden Valley for authentic, high-quality Thai food. The service makes you feel like family. Highly recommend!

It was an impromptu dinner for us since we were in the area, but I definitely enjoyed it! The workers are super nice and friendly. The space seemed busy during dinner time before we came, so must be a beloved spot for locals. We liked everything we got, but I will definitely say the winner was the red curry. Partner got the pad Thai, which was enjoyable, but we’re had pad Thai from other places that blew us out of the water. The chicken in the pad Thai was a little bland, so it took away from the dish. Tofu was super crispy also that was enjoyable. The chicken satay was good too. Would recommend if you’re just looking for some comforting, classic Thai food.

If you’re looking for authentic Thai flavor and don’t mind a lively, high-energy environment, Nong's is a must-visit. ​Customizable Heat: I love that they let you choose the spice level for every dish. It makes the menu accessible whether you’re a "mild" fan or a total "wild" 🔥 ​Vegan-Friendly: Unlike many spots that only offer one or two vegan options, Nong's has an impressive variety. It’s great to have actual choices! The Pace: The service was a bit on the slower side during my visit. However, given how packed the house was, it seemed more like a result of their popularity than a lack of effort. We definitely will be back

Amazing food and service. I get their pineapple fried rice and their limeade which is a fantastic combo. The prices here are great and would definitely come again. Make sure to book a reservation as there’s usually a good amount of people waiting.

We are from out state & saw their 1400+ reviews & had to try it. I love- loved the sukiyaki noodles (with pork) & Thai sausage appetizer~Hands down, are winners.. Don't miss out on those deep fried banana with the coconut ice cream~ they can't be missed!

Excellent papaya salad! Also ordered the beef laab and the chicken drunken noodles which did not disappoint. The papaya is definitely worth the trip.

As a guy who loves chicken pad Thai, my breakdown. Service was perfect-friendly. Atmosphere- workers and guest felt happy. The interior was clean and beautiful. Food- I selected spicy option but it was medium spice at best. The noodles at first appear to be too slippery but as I continued to eat they got better. The chicken comes in flat chunks and would say 10/10 for the chicken. Temp of to go order 10/10. Dish came with peanuts incase your allergic good news, I would return again, as I was full when done eating too!

Went here on a recommendation for take out. Food was warm, generous and delicious. I got pineapple fried rice with shrimp, cream cheese wontons and fried banana. There was an hour long wait just to sit when I went so others can't be wrong.

First time last night for dinner. Service was fantastic, server was quick and friendly; offering to adjust spice levels. The restaurant was clean and has a spacious feel. The place was hopping for a Tuesday evening. Most tables filled up by the time we left (6:30?) and there was a constant stream of takeout orders that the staff easily handled. Was not cheap, but the quality of food and service will ensure we'll be repeat customers!

Our server today was spot on. She headed the team on a busy and very cold day. We got curry puffs. Fried Tofu. Cashew stir fry and pad Thai. Everything was superb.

The food was unfortunately very mid. The best item we tried were the spring rolls. very generous portions but our server was not friendly, like we felt in trouble. Clean restaurant with lots of seating, easy parking

Great take out! Hot, fresh, tasty, and timely. Knocking down a star as this was expensive for pad Thai and cheese puffs.

Excellent meal with group of 9! Quick and friendly service, wonderful food choices, and absolutely delicious!!

Nong's Thai serves authentic Thai Cuisine. They have appetizers and entrees to choose from, including bold dishes such as pineapple rice served in half a fresh pineapple. The entree portion sizes are large enough to share. My friends and I all ordered different entrees and appetizers and shared our dishes to be able to try other options.

The food here is so full kr flavor and so well prepared! I had the Prik King Curry with Tofu and the curry puffs. The curry was the perfect level of piquancy and it generally had a bright, fresh flavor. The curry puffs were delicious. My waitress was attentive and explained the menu well. The ambiance was warm and inviting. I highly recommend!!!

Visited Nong's Thai Cuisine for the 1st time with my family this past weekend. I'm so glad we stopped by because I think it's the BEST Thai food I've had in Minnesota!!! The prices are super reasonable in my opinion and they had a nice variety of dishes. Bonus that they had Mango Sticky Rice! It was the perfect dessert for a hot day. Highly recommend checking out this restaurant and I'll definitely be back!

Ordered takeout from Nong's on a rainy weeknight. We ordered Pad Thai (chicken and beef) and the cream cheese wontons. The quantities were great for the price point and the sauce on the Pad Thai was great. I do wish they cut up the scallions a bit more than the 1.5 inch pieces they use today. Wontons were crispy and a nice side! Online ordering was easy and timely. The pickup process was easy and our food was hot and ready. It even came in a reusable bag, which is a nice touch. The inside was clean and seemed to be well maintained, but we just came in quickly to pick up.

I've come here quite a few times with my friends and family, and every time the food is perfect! It definitely gets very busy on a weekend or Friday night so I recommend getting a reservation when possible. Service is very quick and the food comes out quickly as well. I've had the pad Thai and then some of the other stir fry dishes and everything is great. They have a super delicious fried tofu appetizer too that's perfectly crunchy, I love it! We also tried the mango sticky rice and it was so delicious. Parking can be a bit limited in the lot especially on a weekend. Overall it's a delicious spot and we will for sure be back!

Great Thai food in the Western suburbs. No need to travel to eat street and battle traffic and parking for a quick fix. Appetizer: Fresh regular spring rolls are a must. What I loved was the mix of ground pork and fresh shrimp combined with the crunch of lettuce and cucumber. Amazing texture. Highly addicting. The dipping sauce was just the right balance of sweet and savory. Salad: Don't sleep on the papaya salad. The dressing has that fish sauce funk and sour sweet balance with a little kick of spice. It just wakes up your palate. Maybe not for a beginner to Thai cuisine but a must try for those that are more adventurous and want to try something new. Stir fry: Basil stir fry with tofu. Yes tofu! It adds a great texture to the dish and absorbs the delicious sauce. This is a dish that will make anyone enjoy eating vegetables. Noodles: Gotta have the Pad Thai with chicken. It's really well done. The sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and sour. The crushed peanuts and spring onion give the crunch that make this dish so cravable. But the star of the night was the Pad see yew with chicken. This has a wide noodle and a sweet savory dark sauce. The Chinese broccoli and stems provide the crunch and texture. Service is always excellent even when it is chaotic and busy. Inside has a great ambiance and vibe tip toeing the line of authentic decor and family friendly. I really appreciate the cleanliness of the restaurant.

Great place with a beautiful interior for Thai food in west Metro. I like most of the noodles dish here and red curry. You can really customize a lot of the dishes where too which is nice for folks with certain dietary needs. The staff here is friendly and I love the Thai fortune cookie they give you at the end of your meal when dining in as a nice little treat to end your meal.

This was one of my favorite resteraunts till I picked up an order to go where they forgot the main dish . I called multiple times that day ans couldn't get through so I sent an email . I have not been able to get consistent communication with them to clear this up so am giving up but wont be goinf back ever again. Worst customer service and a nught ruined with an expensive dinner i never got to eat .

Nong's provides a solid Thai experience with an extensive menu of items to choose from. Service is quick, food arrives fast, and prices are fairly reasonable. The Egg Rolls are very good. Not quite Que Viet level, but very high quality nonetheless. The Green Curry was solid, I should have opted for a little more spice, but you just never know! Nong's is well worth a trip for your Thai cravings!

I recently discovered Nong's through a friend and I'm so happy that I did! The Thai food here is pretty delicious, so far I've had the pad thai, pad see ew, and tom yum soup, all of which have been great! They let you customize your spice for each of the dishes (and don't worry, they can make it "Minnesota" spicy ). If you do really want to experiment with spice, you can also ask for it on the side. I got some extra chili garlic crisp on the side, really nice to be able to control how much I'd like to add to my food. My experiences with service have been pretty good most of the time. Staff is very friendly. Ambiance is also really nice, calm and quiet with a lot of seating. There is also plenty parking.

I am scared to post this because I love this place, and I selfishly don't want it to be even more popular BUT it's delicious! My new favorite entree is the pineapple fried rice, I personally prefer it without raisins and cashews. I tried it with mock duck, which I am starting to like as a protein. As always, my absolute favorite appetizer is the cream cheese wonton: they have so much cream cheese filling and it has a hint of sweetness that I love.

The food here is always amazing. Fresh, delicious ingredients with fantastic flavor. Service is top notch with suggestions and guidance on what dish you'd enjoy most. Plus it's a clean simple dining experience room with room for all your friends. Go there for lunch today!

Great spot for Thai food in Golden Valley just off Medicine Lake Road. Nong's sits in the middle of The Sunny Hollow strip mall next to McDonald's and doesn't look like much from the outside. Inside though is clean and uncluttered and I was immediately greeted by the friendly staff. Based in part on the recommendation of my waitress, I ordered the Thai basil stir-fried chicken and the Thai fried egg rolls. The order came reasonably quick and the portions were very large (half went home in a box). Everything tasted fresh with a perfect level of spice - I chose medium and would recommend hotter if you want spicy. Both the stir fry and the egg rolls were delicious and I was very happy with the meal. Highly recommended.

Our server was knowledgeable and offered honest suggestions. Seafood curry was amazing. A warm red curry coconut based soup that was so full of flavor and on a freezing cold day.

Yay Nong's Thai! This is by far the best Thai food we have had in Minnesota. It is clean, well run, and the staff are SO nice! My wife had Pad See Ew with Chicken and I had the Drunken noodles. We asked for extra veggies and they delivered! The only thing is that it was a little salty, but still crave-able. I would go back again and again. I would highly recommend Nong's!!!

Pleasantly surprised by this unsuspecting restaurant hiding BIG flavor! The strip mall it's attached to makes it seem like a takeout only option but don't be fooled, they have a gorgeously remodeled interior that boasts ample seating. I loved the clean simple environment with comfy chairs and clean look. We ordered their Sukiyaki noodle dish, their stir fry (Thai Basil) and couldn't pass up their Thai fried egg rolls. Serving sizes are massive, I recommend ordering and sharing amongst the table. Flavors were fresh with garlic, fresh herbs and the sauces were compliments to the meals without being over powering. Will be my new favorite small business Thai place in New Hope/ Golden Valley.

Absolute BEST Thai cuisine! How do they make their Thai basil chicken fried rice taste so amazing?!! The pineapple curry is a fav, as are the cream cheese wontons with a unique and amazing dipping sauce. Not your average Thai place. Everything is made from scratch and delicious. Highly recommend!

Fantastic food, great service. The egg rolls are the best I've ever had. I will certainly be back.

Heard about this place from a friend in Crystal MN and we decided to check it out. Its in a little strip mall and is very clean and modern inside. The staff has a family feel and we ordered a variety of dishes. My friend swears by the crispy beef appetizer but we got the thai chicken skewers, beef pad see ew, pad thai chicken and drunken noodles beef with thai fried rice. The food was fresh, reasonably priced and we had plenty for leftovers. I highly recommend trying one of the specialty drinks and my kids love the limeade. Im glad we branched out and tried another new place!

Went there for the first time when I was in the neighborhood and I knew 1/2 of the customers who all reported that they loved the food. I agree. It was delicious and I will return

When driving to the place, I could smell the food. As someone who is very scent oriented, I knew before I walked into the place it was going to be amazing. I WAS RIGHT. It was busy but I soon learned why. The staff are amazing and friendly, lovely in fact. Clean, tables were perfect. The presentation of the place with the decor, the ambience, top tier. The menu, and drink selection was also quite amazing. My friend said "Hey I know this Thai Place." I was up for anything, and we went here. I ordered the Beef Pad Thai. A fairly common dish, and they asked me what level of spice. My friend assured me that if I got the spicy or hot versions I would be fine. I took my time eating this food. The reason why, is that I wanted to enjoy it, and savor every bite. This is not some pedestrian offering you might get at some fast food place. This was just amazing. I have not had Thai food this good in over 10 years. I intend to return and bring friends. This place is amazing and deserves all the success. Even the take home bag they gave me was amazing. Please go to this place and order something because I promise you, you will not be disappointed. Just amazing.

Very pleasantly surprised by this spot! We were craving thai takeout and searched for the nearest options, and this popped up. We ordered: CRAB RANGOONS: - Some of the best rangoon-to-cream cheese ratio I've had! I love the teardrop style of these. - They also had a unique cinnamon cranberry dipping sauce? Seemed homemade and I loved the switch-up from the traditional sweet red sauce. PAD THAI: - Just perfect! Great heat level, noodles weren't too oily or dry, great flavor. And a huge portion. RED CURRY: - Major heat kick but delicious flavor! Rich curry and coconut milk, lots of bamboo shoots and flavor, heaping portion. When I came to pick up, I was very impressed: an updated interior, super clean, friendly front counter service and fast pickup. With those portion sizes, we were able to stretch both our entrees to a second meal, making it very cost effective too. We'll definitely be ordering from here again soon!

The pineapple fried rice was surprisingly delicious--honestly even better than what I had in Thailand! The other dishes were pretty good too, though the curry was a bit of a letdown, with 5-6 huge chunks of potato and not much else in terms of vegetables. Overall, the prices are reasonable, the flavors are great, and I'd definitely come back.

Being from LA where it's the home to the biggest Thai population outside of Thailand, this hidden gem is worth the visit for any local Minnesota residents. The ingredients are fresh and authentic, the service is top notch, and you can feel the positive vibes. I came with some clients and they also have never been here so they were surprised to know it gets the seal of approval so to speak. The sausage, pad Thai, pad see ew, and the basil stir fry were all delicious. Definitely a place I will always visit when I'm back in MSP

Nong's Thai Cuisine is always a solid choice, whether for takeout or dining in. The menu has lots of great options, and everything we've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. It's become one of our go-to spots for tasty Thai food in the area!

Very busy for a Friday. Order drunken noodles, on the sweeter side. Not spicy. Asked for very spicy. Asparagus with shrimp was delicious. Service was ok.

Went here for the first time with my kids and they loved it. The satay, panang curry, and crispy beef were our favorites. The portions and protein sizes are a lot more than other places. We will be back to try more food! This place does get super busy even on the weekdays.

I've been here and few times now and have enjoyed the lunch buffet both times. The service is great, the food is fantastic and the price is fair

Small quintet Thai cuisine in an unassuming strip mall. The food is always spot on. I always get the green curry. One of my favorites in all of MN. This place you have to try if you like top Thai dishes

The hype is real! The food here is SO tasty! If you don't know what something is on the menu... Google it for photos hahaha. That's what pushed me to try the beef Pad Se Yew and it was AMAZING. It's a cute place to eat at and the service is friendly, but it's just as good as take out! Huge portions - you get your moneys worth and can definitely split an entree or two. Must visit!!

This is a very nice restaurant. The menu selection is Hugh. All the dishes are fresh and consistent. Highly recommended.

I love this place!! Food was very fresh and i enjoyed everything we ordered. i do wish the pad thai had more peanuts/ peanut flavor but was still delicious. Service was awesome and i couldn't believe the amount of takeout business they do.

Nongs is simply amazing. The service and food were exceptionally good. My favorite was the sriracha fried rice. The kick the sriracha gave was so flavorful. Therm parking is easy and it's right off 169. Phone definitely did not eat first as I didn't take any photos while I devoured the meal.

I ate here before, and had a yummy meal, so decided to come back. We order the fried tofu appetizer, the Rad Ana with pork, and the masaman curry with beef. The tofu was nice a crispy, but soft inside, Served with a tangy sauce for dipping. The Rad Na was really good, although the noodles were in a huge clump at the bottom of the bowl. Once I broke up the noodles, it was super good. The curry dish was delicious. Creamy and spicy with lots of veggies. But...no matter how often we say we want it "Thai hot, number 5", they consistently do not make it spicy enough. The food is good though, and I'd come back.

I have been wanting to try this place for a while now and finally got takeout. The food is amazing and portion sizes are generous. We got the chicken pad Thai and chicken pad see ew both with medium spice levels. The flavors are delicious and the spice isn't too much, next time we will try spicy for sure. The cream cheese wantons are also amazing and are a little different than your usual wantons. Takeout took 20 minutes from order to pick up and was super easy! I highly recommend!

What a sad surprise. We came to have the usual wonderful soups only to find out they don't make them vegetarian anymore. Basically nothing is vegetarian besides Panang curry. Real disappointment. This used to be our favorite place for years. We would even order tofu soup for the broth itself. We were told people were complaining about the watered down fall or of vegetarian soups. Well too bad they can't accommodate vegetarians and meat eaters... Sadly we won't be back

Great good! The thai tea is delicious, something i would do is add a little bit more milk/half and half or cream. The thai tea was a little overpowering. The chicken wing was good and crunchy and it was fresh out of the fryer. Same as the calamari, that was a unique and different style of calamari. It was light and easy to eat. The stir fry chicken with vegetables was yummy. The taste and everything was there, the sweet and savory mix well together. The pad thai tastes a little different from other pad Thai i have had. It was be nice to add a little pepper to it. My bf add the lime, i feel like it kind of kill the taste,( just me personally). The chicken satay was really delicious, definitely tastes better with pepper! Overall, a good hidden location in Plymouth. The service was great and quick. The ambiance was quiet and chill.

TAKE OUT SERVICE very quick and easy. although the front door to walk in to get your togo order is tight and small, it wasn't too busy during the lunch rush Egg Rolls are too notch! Perfect amount of veggies and meat. Sauce is basic but good. Pad See Ew is delicious but not as spice as I'd like. I'll definitely will be stopping by to dine in because I love hot fresh food, so I'm excited. Definitely a great spot for a bite, you don't want to miss out

Amazing food and kind people! We will be back for sure--the garlic and black pepper chicken is out of this world!

Best Thai in the Twin Cities! Every time I eat Thai anywhere else I find myself comparing it to Nongs. We don't live close by so when we are in the area we always stop in and are never less than amazed.

Reservations were made so we were seated right away. Service was efficient. I'd like that there were options for water with ice and no ice. to try the Thai iced tea and that was very good. We tried a lot of appetizers, papaya salad, crispy beef, spring rolls, and Tom yum soup with chicken. I wish there was a smaller soup option, but it was a pretty large bowl fit for a meal. Out of all of those items I like the crispy beef the most. My mom and I split the chicken pad Thai and that was pretty saucy. I also got to try my sister and brother-in-law's drunken noodles one with the medium heat and one with hot heat and I like the hotter one best. A solid spot but I would probably choose another spot for Thai.

A solid neighborhood Thai place! The inside is neat and clean, and the service was friendly. We got takeout so can't speak much to if it's different for sit down! Nong's is a friend's favorite, they highly recommend the Pad See Ew. I got the pad Thai- solid pad Thai! I look forward to returning and trying some other things on their menu.

This restaurant has always been 5 star for us. We have been coming to Nong for over 5 years and discovered tonight that they no longer offer vegan broth for their soups. We have been coming to Nong because of their vegan options and it is very disappointing that they no longer offer the vegan option. I feel it is rather lazy to get rid of that option because of complaints of its taste instead of working to improve the vegan broth. We won't be back until the vegan option is back on the menu. Very sad.

This place rules. The food was great, service was great. It's busy for a reason. I would like to try everything on the menu.
