Thai Food Express

Let me start by saying... BE PATIENT. They cook to order, so that means that it might take a little bit longer to get your order. THE WAIT IS WORTH IT. I ordered pad thai with tofu, pad see ew with beef, fried rice (no meat, just veggies), chicken satay, and an order of spring rolls. Everything is reasonably priced. From the kind gentleman with a great attitude and sense of humor to the food: all great. The pad thai and the spring rolls were my favorite from the main dishes.But I will say, please do yourself a favor and order the coconut tapioca because it is the most amazing thing in the world. I am SO full right now, but I can't stop eating it as I'm typing this review.Tonight is my last night in North Shore and I already know I'm going to try to find something similar to this back home.

Pretty good, fresh food from this cute food truck with easy parking and picnic tables. The shrimp pad that was tasty but definitely used ketchup and very light on any veggies (decent number of shrimp), so was middle of the road for me; I'd probably try a different noodle dish next time. Similarly, the green curry (which does come with rice), had a good warm heat, nice coconut flavor, great eggplant and lots of Thai basil, but it included broccoli, and the broccoli flavor kind of pervaded the curry. This means it was tasty but not what I'd think of as a classic green curry if that's what you're craving. Spring rolls were crispy, loaded, and had a good black pepper seasoning, but were slightly overcooked so a bit grease saturated. Finally, the chicken satay had a great peanut sauce, and was served with cabbage and rice so was a nice meal. Flavor delicious but it's chicken breast so was a bit dry. All in, I enjoyed everything but nothing was perfect. This means I'd definitely return, but will likely try different menu items.

Really fresh and nice vegetarian panang curry, spicy eggplant, pad see ew. Lady grows her own vegetables and the food seemed fresh and reaallly hot (not spicy)!! Recommend to all Thai food lovers!

Super yummy Thai food! Loved the pineapple fried rice and curries. Authentic Thai for sure.

HEY YA'll! What a find at the Original Thai Food Express! We actually found this spot by pure coincidence when we were downtown Honolulu visiting a small farmers/craft market. We came across a small table selling fresh fruit and Thai plates when we met the owner. Unfortunately, they were almost out of everything, but we conversated with the owner, and we just hit it off on a personal level. His energy and passion he put into his food were evident, so we got his number and location and promised to stop by during our stay on the island. A few days later that Thai comfort food crave was hitting hard, so we traveled up along the coast and found this gem of a food truck! The setting is rustic, and it's nestled across from the shore with an awesome view of the ocean. A perfect spot for a picnic with your loved one and/or family. There's a few picnic tables, but if it's crowded, no worries, there's plenty of grass area to sit on down and enjoy an awesome meal.We ordered the papaya salad, chicken larb, drunken noodles with chicken, and mango sticky rice. To flush it down, we ordered some waters, a Thai coffee, and a Thai iced tea.The papaya salad was very good and teased your taste buds with a combination of spicey, sweet and sour, and salty flavors. When the combination is right, you know, and this was spot on!The chicken larb was also very good. It had a bit of heat at first bite, and then it was followed by some sweet and sour flavors. We like to squeeze a bit of lime on it for some extra flavor.The drunken noodles were savory with a bit of sweet and saltiness. The chicken was cooked perfectly and not overcooked, and for me, it was comfort food. I could eat this dish all day long.To finish off the meal, we ordered some mango sticky rice. It was pretty standard here, except the mango was perfectly ripe with sweet, citrusy, and almost melon like flavors. A sweet ending to an awesome meal.Overall, Thai Food Express was an awesome meal, and you won't be disappointed. If you want some onolicious food made with aloha, then give Thai Food Express a try.Until next time, my fellow Yelpers...stay hungry my friends!

Great little food truck. Our family orders pad thai from them every so often. Looks like a smalle family run operation. Great to support local. We have enjoyed their food

Best pad thai on North Shore and amazing customer service! I come here at least a couple times a month and they never disappoint!

Just finished doing a tour and found this along the way. I got the garlic shrimp and my other half got the yellow curry. Great food. Shrimp were tail on. Everywhere else I had gone I had to peel them myself. Which as we know is messy as all yell. Food was great. Prices are good. No bathrooms which sucks.

Lots of vegan options. Extremity friendly and helpful. We have been here three times already this is the best food we have eaten on the island. Being from south Louisiana we have high stands when it comes to flavor and food, love this place. Super fresh veggies, not greasy, big portions. Love it.Cute area to eat outside with friendly chickens.

A fantastic north shore food truck! I stopped for the pho truck next door but decided to add some pad Thai from Thai food express. I made a great choice with this one! I tried both the chicken pad Thai and egg rolls.Chicken Pad Thai- flavorful, fresh and well portioned. I'd give this 4 of 5 starsSpring Rolls- these little rolls were probably the best I've ever had. No joke and a must add to your order! 5 of 5 stars!My order took a while but it was well worth the wait. Stop by this spot!
