   When I'm in town I always find time to go to Pakpao. The food is flavourful. The dumplings are very tasty. Their ground pork and basil is excellent. I crave their shrimp with green curry. Highly recommend that you give them a try. Tasty tasty tasty.

   It was too cold in the restaurant with the AC on very high. Otherwise a very enjoyable and delicious meal.

   We had a early meal prior to a game at American Airlines center. The food was excellent and the service was very friendly. The chicken satay was excellent and we also enjoyed drunken noodles , fried rice and garlic shrimp. One of our party can’t tolerate spicy food and they were very accommodating. We also left a credit card by mistake and they called us to say they were holding it for us to pick up when convenient.

    Food is always consistent at Pak Pao. Our waiter was still learning having just joined the team, but he was quick to find answers to our questions and was attentive. I recommend this restaurant for a casual meal with good food. Especially the green curry salmon. So delicious!

    Great experience! My wife has several food allergies so we called ahead to ask if they could accommodate. They said yes and were well aware when we arrived, and the chef came to our table to meet with us. Found a dish she was interested in, which was prepared with a slight modification. She found it delicious and, even better, didn’t get sick. It’s a real trick to find a new place my wife can eat at, and this was the best new place we’ve found in quite a while. Our server Eduardo was also excellent. Great attention to detail without smothering us, and was also a great conversationalist when the opportunity arose.

    We went for lunch during DFW Restaurant week. The restaurant week offering was really limited, which is to be expected, but the portions were also really small. I ordered the Tom Kha Gai soup and received less than a half cup—which was fine because it was super salty, and the Pad Thai which was served in a Soup Bowl. If you’re going to cheap out on restaurant week offerings, just don’t participate. The Pad Thai was the best of the offerings and it was just fine—nothing special. The icing on the cake of our bad experience is that our credit card number was stolen after lunch and the waiter(s) used our card for a number of fraudulent purchase that afternoon. So, overall not good food, small portions. and unethical wait staff.

    We were in Dallas for one day and wanted to try Jet Tila’s food. My wife is Thai so we thought it would be a good meal. The Thai tea was way too sweet. They were out of the boba (though the waitress didn’t know that until she came back). We ordered som tom, pad siew, and tom kha gai, with jasmine rice. The som tom never came out, but that was probably a blessing. The pad siew was weirdly seasoned and improperly cooked. The noodles were soggy and sticky … pad siew should be cooked over high heat, but this was tossed more like rad na would be. The flavor was weird. It would have helped to have some Thai vinegar (nam som sai chu), but the waitress seemed taken back when I asked for vinegar. The tom kha was a little too salty, but not bad. $4 for rice is really just a money grab and an overall sign of how expensive the place is. I don’t mind paying for good food, but this $50 lunch for two left us hungry and wishing we had gone somewhere else.

    Just loved the whole experience. The vibe was nice but the food was even better. Great selection of dishes and it all was beautifully presented and very fresh and tasty. Just what I was hoping it would be. Would definitely eat here again. And if you love Boba then you will be very satisfied!

    Servers were great. Food was tasty, if a little mild for my palate. I would order with more heat next time. They had run out of several beers, but had plenty of alternatives to quench your thirst. I would recommend giving Pakpao Thai a go, but two up the heat on your food.

    It had been a few years since I had eaten at pak pao, it used to be incredibly good. I got the duck which was way over cooked, my wife got that larb gai and it tasted pretty off. My dad just pushed his food around, it was all around pretty disappointing. Very nice staff and great decor, just food was poor. Perhaps we caught them on a very off day

    Normally one of my favorite places to dine. We were sat as soon as we arrived which was nice. As we sat there and our appetizer had already hit the table, we had no silverware. Music was in my opinion too loud, you couldn’t even hear yourself speak. As we started to eat our appetizer I was surrounded by fruit flies, tons of them. So many that I was swatting them away over and over and eventually had to ask the manager to be moved, we opted to move outside. When I say a ton of them, I saw at least 10 hovering over my table and near me. Service could have been better, looked like that had 2 servers at 7pm on a Friday night, probably not the best idea. I had to ask to get coke refills and server looked a little flustered from running around in my option. Restaurant didn’t look clean as doors had hand print all over and floors looked dirty as well. Food was lovely as that’s the only reason I drive from Grapevine to Dallas to go there. I’m also a frequent visitor of El Bolero as well so I was quite disappointed that this restaurant isn’t up to par.

    The food is usually good but the service totally slacks! I've now been here three times and every time I go you're flagging the waiter down for help. Yesterday we went with a 6:15 reservation and didn't get seated till 6:45, we told the waiter or manager whatever he was we'd like to order an appetizer as we waited. It came to our table but we had no silverware and it took about 5 minutes to get it. Not really easy to eat with your fingers if you don't have a napkin to wipe them off with!

    Everything was absolutely wonderful, the atmosphere, the decor, the wait staff, the food. The only small thing was they had some sort of an ice machine that made a tremendous racket through the last half of our meal. Probably a machine that needs to be moved to the kitchen. Otherwise fantastic, and it’s been great every time I’ve gone there.

    Mother’s Day Brunch. Special holiday menu, so they wouldn’t serve off of the normal brunch menu, which is fine, even common. But then they told us they weren’t serving about half of the things on the published Mother’s Day menu, including any of the kid’s foods. So that was disappointing. We had about 2 things to choose from. They were both good, though pretty vanilla.

    Yes when we arrived I so excited for we have eaten here before, but I was not satisfied with Pakpeo food and while we were eating there was a bug fly around us when got at our table and the whole time we we’re there. How disappointing and the food was not as good as I had a anticipated. There was no duck, the dishes were all most tasteless and the price was to high and my daughter lamb chop were not 40.00! All in all i DONT think I’ll return to eat there again unless I get a free dinner or someone takes me there, but I will never recommend this Resturant to ANYONE!
