“ Excellent! We have been here many, many times. Every time we go we try to get at least one different dish. They are very consistant with the quality, flavor and portions. Every dish we have ever had tasted freshly made. The picture on the left was taken after the big heaping scoop of rice was put in, but it has alot of sauce, meat, brocolli, mushrooms, and some other stuff. It was super good! The owner named the resturant Namwan after his grandmother and every receipe is from her collection. Obviously, she was (or is) a great chef because this food is very flavorful. The prices are not bad for the portions you get because technically you can split most portions into two meals. These two dishes and two fountain drinks was 25! The atmosphere is quiet unless there are alot of people which isnt very typical. That is just because people are typically talking. You can hear others conversations, so it may not be the best place for talking bad. They have a small number of tables because of the size of the place overall, but that was all on purpose, the owner wanted a smaller, relaxed place to enjoy a meal. He accomplished that! The decor on the walls are by local artists and its just another good "mom and pop" place to go. ”
“ The best Asian restaurant number 2 in Lafayatte after Saigon Noodle, everything was amazing. I always come here anyway My favorite fried rice, pad thai, curry, coconut ice cream, and tom yum soup so delicious ”
“ This place is soooo good, but heed this warning. Rori got the pad Naman Nga (chicken) and I got the soft shell crab pong gharee. Off the charts good! ”
“ Dining here is always a fantastic experience for us. While I wish the prices were a bit lower, the food is truly exceptional. The portion sizes are quite generous, making it possible for lighter eaters to share a meal! We make it a point to visit every few months. They offer excellent options for kids, and you can customize your spice level! The staff is wonderful and very patient in explaining the menu. I highly recommend this place. ”
“ Amazing Thai food in Youngsville! We tried the Pad Thai and Pad Krathiam Chicken. both were absolutely delicious with perfect spice levels. Some of the best Thai food we’ve had in a long time! The staff was super friendly and welcoming. Great food, great service! Highly recommend Namwan Thai Kitchen! ”
“ So new owners, very friendly, same great food but bigger portions! New decor looks really nice, improved the atmosphere. ”
“ An absolute gem! Always fresh and as spicy as you like (they actually make it spicy, so be brave at your risk). ”
