Reviews Krua Thai

I had the DUI noodles( Pad Kee Mao). Which was very tasty! I tried the 3 star spice level, it was a good spice level if you like spicy food, but not too spicy. The staff were very friendly and I had a great experience! I would definitely recommend if your in Abilene!

When it comes to Thai food, I love it all. But Krua Thai in Abilene is one of those places that truly stands out above the rest. The owner is the cook and she loves to serve great food. She even makes annual trips back to her home village in Thailand to bring back herbs and spices grown by her family. She uses these spices in her restaurant cooking and they do make a difference. This is one of the things that set this Thai place apart. The one thing you should know is that Tita (the owner) does not dull down her cooking to accommodate the sensitive Texas palate. She ranks her spicy level an a scale of 1 to 4, with four being the SURFACE OF THE SUN! As a lover of hot peppers, I can say I have never eaten at another Thai restaurant that can even come close to the heat level in Krua Thai's level four. I usually get a level three and it is right at the border of what I would say is the point at which pepper heat turns form delicious spice to delicious pain. That is the perfect level for me. I know some people that love the level four, but most normal people stop at level two. One of the key questions to ask the cook is, "What village di the peppers she is using that day come from, her mothers village or hers. The peppers from he mother's village are much hotter than the peppers grown in her own village. My favorites here are her curry chicken fried rice and her beef noodle soup. Level 3, of course!

I absolutely LOVE this place! Great food, every time! I love the DUI noodles and the Curry. I hear the Sesame Chicken is amazing as well!
