Zaap Kitchen Lao & Thai Street Eats

This place is really nice. You can order through kiosk and it is pretty fast. The food quality was great too compared to the price. We got the dunken noodles which we loved the most. We also got their laos special and it was alright. The papaya salad was really spicy. But definitely try the drunken noodles. We also got the mango sticky rice was nice as well. Their crab spring roll was really good too. Will definitely order that next time. I would recommend that place.

I’ve ordered take out from here on multiple occasions. Today I decided I would dine in since I had extra time for lunch. I stepped up to the counter and I wasn’t even greeted. They do have a self service station, there was no one in line and I wasn’t offered any help. I ordered the spring rolls with chicken and the green curry. These are basically my go tos. The food was hot, and came out relatively fast. I didn’t realize they serve in plastic ware even for dine in. That was a turn off. I def recommend for take out not sure if I’ll be dining in again.

So I was looking for some sort of fried rice! This was delicious!! It has raisins, cashews, pineapples and egg, I ordered medium spicy. I will probably go a bit spicer next time I couldn’t t really taste any spice. I had a strawberry cheesecake macaroon that it was average, not worth $8 maybe $4-$5. Either way good rice, I will come back and try something else.

Very nice staff and great food, it has high quality ingredients and authentic taste. I got the pad Thai with beef and live it! They also offer with all proteins (shrimp, beef, chicken) which is not common to find, usually you get one but not the mix.

Pretty decent if you would like something quick. I decided to try the Drunken Noodles with tofu. The flavor was okay and it wasn’t bad, but certainly not the best that I have had. I had a huge slice of a tomato in the dish and that was off putting.

I get a chicken pad Thai with no tofu and I’d say it’s arguably the best pad Thai I’ve had! I have a pretty good spice tolerance and a 3 had very good flavor without much kick, but man a 4 was on fire. Still delicious!

First time here! 10/10 Service was friendly. Clean expo, drink station, dinning roon and restrooms. My first experience with Lao and Thai food. So delicious. Got the red curry level 4 (very spicy, but very good) everything was so good!

This place is so good. I'll be back. Just know this going forward. They are located in a strip mall just catty-cornered to my hotel I was at. Within walking distance, but just not in this heat. It's brutal. Walked in and it's quaint. Not huge and not small but comfortable. They have two counters a self service and a full service. I had scoped out the menu so I knew what I wanted. The crispy wings and drunken noodles. The wings were super crispy and full of flavor, my only beef was they were overcooked and pretty dry. Flavor 5/5 stars, but the overcooked made them not the best texture wise. Drunken noodles were perfect. Heat was great, i got a level 3, veggies were good and sauce was delicious. Great little restaurant if you don't want overpriced hotel food. See y'all next time im in town!

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at ZAAP Kitchen for an early lunch, and we were delighted with our experience. The food was exceptional, and we left feeling satisfied and impressed. The fresh rolls with chicken and peanut sauce were a standout. The combination of flavors and textures was delightful, and the peanut sauce complemented the rolls perfectly. The basil chicken fried rice was another highlight. The rice was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and the basil added a fresh, aromatic flavor that we loved. Lastly, the pad see ew was delicious. The noodles were cooked just right, and the flavors were rich and satisfying. Overall, we highly recommend ZAAP Kitchen to anyone looking for delicious and authentic Thai cuisine. The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent. We can't wait to go back!

I went here because I was craving some quick Thai food. The place is casual and perfect for a fast bite. Honestly the drunken noodles were tasty and a decent price. Unfortunately as I was eating my noodles I had a small rock in my food that I had to spit out. This ruined my experience and made it difficult to want to eat the rest of my meal. I might have had a rare experience that wasn't good so I won't give up on this whole place since the part that I did eat was good. The staff was nice and gave me a reimbursement for my meal.

I ordered Zapp Kitchen via door dash. The order came in a decent time and was packaged well. I had the pineapple fried rice with chicken, pad Thai with chicken and fried vegetables rolls. The pad Thai was dry and I did not like how it was seasoned. The pineapple rice was better but nothing to rave about. The vegetables rolls were good. Overall: I wouldn't order again.

I ordered takeout not knowing about this place just having a appetite and in the area and it was the best decision! The food was sooo good the flavors come together so wonderfully. I've had quite a bit of drunken noodles in my time and these might be the best! Highly recommend trying it you'll thank yourself for the decision

Very good street style food. Good service. Ate at the eatery after counter order. Will continue eating there when the feeling hits.

Lovely, clean environment, easy to read menus, good food. Big parking lot and very convenient for me. Helpful counter attendant, who pointed out vegan options (curry) and noted the presence of fish oil in many items.

My oh my this location is FIRE!!! We get the pad Thai and the chicken wings and fried rice. The wings are good in texture but lack a little flavor. The staff is super nice and we love this location!

This place is conveniently located on Greenville Avenue and the Pad Thai is wonderful.

I've eaten at nearly every Thai restaurant in DFW. each one of their restaurants is great. each one of their items is delicious, cooked with the same quality daily, and always comes out steaming hot. it's the favorite place for my sons and nephew to eat at... as you see in the pic here, where they're looking crazy lol.

Zaap. My feelings are hurt. Hubby and I were in the mood for some Thai food. We have passed by Zaap Kitchen some many times with the phrase, "We need to check them out" always peppering the conversation. So, we finally did. Honestly, my feelings were hurt. This popular(at least from the revolving door of pick-up and DoorDash orders) spot on Greenville Avenue was clean and open with some really cool decor pieces that made for a pleasant entry. The staff was kind and attentive and very patient. We started out with the Crab Cream Cheese Eggrolls that were reminiscent of Crab Rangoons, but with less flavor. Crisp and golden brown with the snap of flaky goodness in every bite, that was all it had to offer. The filling was bland(which I'm still trying to figure out where they do that at in Thailand or Lao) with not a nary bit of crabmeat in sight! Hubby had Pineapple Fried Rice with Shrimp that was OK? The shrimp was cooked beautifully and the rice was studded with toasted cashews, raisins(which we've never had in Pineapple Fried Rice, but actually worked) and green onions, but that was it. Once again, bland. Not to mention the fact that the price tag did not match the portion size. I had the Nam Khao, which was the only shining light of this meal. Coconut Fried Rice balls, stir-fried with cured pork, chili peppers, and roasted peanuts, served with cool crisp lettuce cups was a peach!(I know, I know, a Peach? It's Friday, try something new). The cured pork was tangy with a slight sour note that played beautifully with the sweet rice. Before the rice balls are worked into the rest of the dish, there fried! This caramelized the sugars in the coconut milk in the rice that just made the whole dish a flavor BOMB! Wrap all that up in a crisp, cool, cup of lettuce, and you've got Way More than a "Salad". All in all, what hit, hit, and what missed, missed. Maybe we need to try some some of the more popular dish and see where the rabbit hole goes. Your thoughts?

My bro and I stopped by for a late night snack after the game and let me say, it was the best decision we've made. We ended up ordering the Lao sausage combo with sticky rice and papaya salad, drunken noodles and Thai basil chicken. We devoured everything! The staff were very friendly and attentive to our special request for extra extra spicy. They did not disappoint. Will definitely be coming back for more to try other dishes whenever we're in the area.

Small but mighty flavor. Our table got shrimp spring rolls, curry fried rice (medium spice) and red curry with chicken. Medium spice was perfectly in the middle of the scale as it should be. The portions were good as well, meaning our bellies were full and no food needed to be boxed up to go. Side note- if you go close to the time of this post, there is loud construction right next door so be prepared

Zapp is my favorite restaurant in DFW. The food and service have consistently been amazing for me and my family for quite some time. They have a new ordering system which takes away from the customer service. The workers aren't as friendly when you have questions about the self-ordering system. In fact, customer service SUCKED today. I wasn't greeted. I spent $60 for food and didn't get a thank you. When o asked questions they seemed bothered. So I'm deducting one star for that. Bring back the good and personal customer service.

Food was pretty good. Light and flavorful. Favorites were pad Kee mao and Lao sausage! Definitely recommend those. Even though it was hot I wanted to try the kopiak, it's one of my favorite southeast Asian dishes. It was ok, i prefer handmade noodles. Overall very enjoyable lunch!

The pad thai here is absolutely amazing. I highly recommend getting it with tofu since the tofu they use has a nice texture (a little chewy and not to soft). The portions are quite large and you can choose from the different spice levels. They use Thai chilies for their higher level of spices so be warned! They are a cafeteria style restaurant and you order at the front of the location. They are pretty friendly and will provide you cups for water. Once you order and sit down, they will bring you the food once it is ready (if you dine in). I would overall highly recommend this location for pad thai.

I love the concept and food. Wish they were in Houston! I love the Zaap combo because you have the option to try a little of everything. Their papaya salad was my favorite and the riblets were crispy on the outside and still tender. Definitely a great lunch spot!

This is the best Thai food I've had in Texas. It's fast, friendly and inexpensive-ish too. Good portions with enough meat. Our former favorite Thai place is more expensive, smaller portion and literally four bites of chicken. I'm so excited to find ZAAP. I can't wait to try the Plano location.

This place was very warm and beautifully designed.The people that take your order were so nice and helpful! I just had to get a little bit of of everything! Everything was super hot and delicious. My favorite was the green curry and the Lao sausage! It was my first time trying both of these dishes and they were both packed with so much flavor!

Tried out Zaap yesterday, great little find . Chloe was there at the counter to assist us and give recommendations. Had fried rice sausage and meatballs . Delicious! It is a lot of food so definitely split a meal. Will be back thanks again Chloe

I love Asian street food and been wanting to try this place. I liked the Lao sausages here, the pad Thai was just okay. Some of the appetizers were a little overpriced for the small portion size. I don't think I would be back any time soon since the food was just okay.

I've mostly only had the Pad Kee Mow from (drunken noodles) here and it is excellent. However, I have ordered it multiple times at varying spice levels (2-4, never 1 or 5) and it seems a bit inconsistent. Even when ordering the same spice level I've had before

Thai food is my favorite food and I have tried so many different places. This by far is my favorite. I have tried so many different entrees here and not one has disappointed me. You can even customize all the orders if you don't like certain things in the meal. HAVE TO TRY!

I ordered drunken noodles, huge disappointment. Over cooked noodles, it's soggy and gross. Hope to see the improvement.

The food is great. However spending nearly $20 for only half of a container of soup is not worth it.

Drunken Noodles are my go to!!! Friendly service and great location. Indoor sitting but I usually order for take out.

Zaap is a really solid place to get Thai food in Dallas. We typically get a curry or two (yellow, red, green, Panang, Massaman are all good) / a noodle dish (mostly Pad Thai). It's a bit greasier than I would like, but the flavors are great. Have gotten the food to-go quite a bit but have never dined in.

Went here for the first home and the food was delicious! The employees were nice and welcoming. I ordered the zaap combo with lao sausage and lao papaya salad. Everything was flavorful. You have to get the Lao papaya salad! I will definitely come back!

I have come here several times everyone here is nice however it seems like they don't read the have given me my order wrong about 5 times unfortunately because of my dietary restrictions I won't be back.

Ordered shrimp pad Thai for pickup, got all the way home to realize I was given the wrong order. It's pouring rain outside and was told the only way to get reimbursed my order was to bring it back (30 min drive) so they had proof it was wrong. (Here's the proof) some chicken, tofu, and bean sprouts over noodles. It would've been okay if they were trying to be helpful in resolving the problem, but I was just met with a combative attitude and to feel like I was lying to them. Hopefully it the staff will be more careful with the next orders, this obviously must be a constant issue given the response I received. Sucks I'm stuck with a dinner I can't eat. :(

I'm visiting Dallas for a few days and wanted some Thai food, so I found Zaap on Yelp. The kiosks are very easy to use and effective for ordering with ease. They do have staff available if you have questions about anything. I ordered crispy veggie rolls (4 stars), veggie drunken noodles (3 stars), garlic stir fry with shrimp (4 stars), and mango with sticky rice (0 stars). The food was ok, except for the mango with sticky rice. I watched the staff bag my food, dropped my mango w. sticky rice (it landed on a low shelf behind the counter, but the food was shaken up inside the container and would have been very messy when I opened it later). She picked it up and put it in my bag as if nothing happened. I was very disappointed, as I had even applied a tip even though my order was carry out. When I brought it to her attention, she did say she would refund the cost (but I currently am not seeing the credit on my online bank statement) and make me a new one with the coconut sauce on the side. As she made the new mango sticky rice, the staff in back were asking her why she needed to make a new dish, and I saw them kind of roll their eyes as if I were making a big deal out of nothing when she explained it. When I finally got around to eating the mango, it was way overripe and inedible... so I basically just ate the rice with coconut sauce. Overall, the food is decent. I just recommend checking everything before you leave.

This restaurant has the perfect name, Zaap! The food was great from the Khao piak sen to the laab. The portions were just right. Not too much & not too little. I like the idea of having it served in a Togo dish so when you don't finish your food you just ask for a lid & off you go. There wasn't much decor but the big map of Thailand & it's surrounding countries was nice with drawings as well. Service was awesome! The owner was very attentive & gave us a free dish of spicy papaya salad. A must try while in Dallas! You will not be disappointed!!

Delicious food. Enjoyed pad Thai, drunken noodles, wings and garlic stir fry. All medium spice level and very tasty. Would definitely come back.

Food always come out in a timely manner. Staff is friendly and informative. Food is always very tasty! I recommend the Pad See Ew and crispy egg rolls.

Great place in East Dallas with a great variety of Laos and Thai cuisine. I love their selection of egg roll and curry dishes. We've ordered from Zaap a couple times and everything is served hot, fresh & delicious. Their fresh rolls are amazingly delectable and served with a side of peanut sauce. They have a variety of vegetarian dishes as well! Lots of great options for all tastes. Super convenient and arrives quick!

First time customer. Amazing food. Very friendly staff. Very casual and easy for a Sunday dine in. Couldn't recommend enough. Drunken noodles and Fried rice were great.

My husband is OBSESSED with the pad thai. Ive had several things i can't pronounce, all good and had the Tom Ka soup last night and it was fantastic!

The pad see eew or however you spell it, so so so good.. and the Thai fried rice was AMAZING. So full of flavor and perfect amount of spice. I would return here in a heartbeat. Cant wait to try their curry next!

Because I am on wegovy, I only tried one item and it made me want to try all the other dishes. But alas, the drug made satiated for one dish. So, I will just have stop taking the shot just to enjoy more than one dish.

I'm all THAI-ed up for this casual dining spot with great authentic eats! The chicken pad kee mao (drunken noodles) has a spice level that goes up to 5. I picked 3 and could probably have gone up one more level easily since I'm a spice lover. The flavor was a great blend of tangy and spicy with the perfect saucy consistency. The yellow chicken curry reminded me of my times in Thailand. The spices were blended perfectly with the creaminess of the curry. It tasted fantastic with the white rice! The Thai tea wasn't my favorite -- was a bit watery and extremely sweet, but it complemented my meal well overall. BONUS: I appreciated the Covid precautions this joint took. They have a temperature check upon arrival and the tables are distanced well.

Not the experience I was hoping for. I ordered the crab and cream cheese appetizer(I did not receive it), spring rolls(they gave me two orders), and the drunken combo noodles. The meat in the drunken noodles was more like chopped meat that was hard to identify; they were skimpy with the shrimp and included the tails. I hate eating food and having to remove the shells. I don't live in the state, so I don't have to worry about returning.

I had a bad day today and went to zaap to get comfort food and they definitely never disappoints. I appreciate how efficient they are. And never a bad vibe when I'm at the restaurant.

Great food and friendly customer service. Will definitely be going back in the future

First time at Zapp today. They had several vegan options and were fine with alterations if asked. Clean and friendly.

Delicious and plenty of healthy options! Love how neatly everything was packaged for my Togo order. Will definitely be back again soon. O

One of my favorite places to go when I'm in a hurry or picking up to take home. Love the chicken wings! Always friendly staff.

An honest "Rey Eats" Review: $$ I never really had a lot of Thai food in my life, and did this place change that! After the first bite, I was in love! The service was great as the people in the front were patient and helpful. My girlfriend loved their pad thai and I had their drunken noodles. The spice was perfect and had a great portion. We liked the wall art in the restaurant and thought it was so cool that it had the geographic map of Lao, Thailand, and Cambodia. Overall, this place is a must-try if you are craving Thai food.

A nice little lunch spot with a variety of Laos and Thai cuisine. Isabel got the simple fried rice because she was scared the curry would be too spicy and wanted to be full. I got the drunken noodles, which are a tasty staple. There's not much that makes them stand out from similar restaurants in the area but they're more than fine to go to. Travis' Rating Taste - 3.5 Quality - 3 Ambiance - 3 Overall - 3.25 Isabel's Rating Taste - 3 Quality - 3 Ambiance - 3 Overall - 3

My brother brought me here for lunch today, knowing I like curry. The counter staff was understanding when I explained that too spicy is inedible - I'm a wuss. They suggested mild yellow curry and I added pork as the meat. My brother ordered chicken yellow curry at a heat rating of 3 (out of 5) - his usual order. His brow was looking very moist at the end of the meal. He had told me it was a large amount of food but I hadn't had breakfast and now it was almost 1pm. Big Bro was correct and I could barely get through half of the meal. The curry was so smooth with just enough kick for me and the vegetables, rice and meat were cooked to perfection. The interior is clean and nicely decorated. The menu board is behind the front ordering counter and staff were so informative and enthusiastic. I look forward to coming back and trying more items!
