Love this food! Takes me back to Thailand. My go-to is always the chicken pad thai (level 7 spice ) with a Thai coffee (forgot to take a pic ) Everything is made to order. So, be prepared to wait a little. You can also call ahead and place your order so it's ready when you get there or when you're done shopping at the NEX/commissary. Every time I go, they are so welcoming and friendly. Definitely recommend!

The shack is located outside of NEX...entrance serving freshly made Thai dishes made to order.There are seats outdoors or dine in the food court upstairs with an extended covered outdoor seating many are not aware of. My favorite drink to go their original Thai coffee freshly made with guava and basil seeds. They also have other signature drinks all Chef T original cold beverages that are great thirst quencher. I highly recommend trying their outstanding Thai menu options for take outs or eat at the NEX food court! They're closed on Sunday's and closes early. The food court is open daily until 7:00-8:00 pm...

When I was looking around for something around the NEX, I saw Thai Shack on yelp and it was rated really well. I love Thai food so I decided to try it with my friend. We love splitting things so that we can try more than one thing so we got a super size açaí bowl and chicken pad thai. It was so busy because it was lunch time and there were a lot of people ordering. We waited a bit for our food so once I saw that they had made our açaí, I went up to get it while we waited for our pad thai. We ended up eating the whole açaí before our pad thai was ready. It was so hot outside so it was the perfect thing to help us cool down. It's definitely not like the traditional açaí but the fruits were really good. The pad thai was finally ready and we ate it pretty quick. It's a very big portion. I'll definitely be getting the pad thai again or maybe try the curry.

I went there on a Saturday when all of the food options in the upstairs food court didn't feel appetizing to me. I remembered that there were several options downstairs, so I went to check it out.I decided to order from the Thai Shack, where I realized that they had the general Thai food in addition to the ice cream rolls and numerous desserts that I thought they were only known for. I discovered that I was wrong and they have full meals for really decent prices! Thai curry for $10? Wow!I was attended to by a very nice older woman, who I realized after the fact was the owner after looking at a photo with their contact info. I ordered the Surf and Turf and she walked me through spice levels since I'm not familiar with Thai spiciness. I went with 5 since that's what she recommended.I wish I took a picture of my order, but I was so *hangry* that I ate it quickly. The quality was the best out of all the options at the NEX. The spiciness was just right and very delicious. I wish I knew this option beforehand, but now that I know, I'll definitely be coming back. If you're craving Thai (or any Asian food) at NEX (which is sorely lacking local/Asian options) and don't want to pay $20 for a plate at I Love Country Café upstairs, go downstairs to the Thai Shack by Chef T and get yourself some Tom Yum, Thai Curry, or Pad Thai for great value. Definitely worth coming back to!

Great small local business serving Thai food by NEX! Loved the atmosphere and welcomed customers by the employees. Their shack is so well decorated and complimented their kitchen setup. I ordered the Pad Thai and Mango Sparkling Soda. When picking up my order, they ensured me with confidence that their food is served with no MSG and fish sauce. Beautifully cooked, great portion and friendly staff. I would totally come back here to try their other authentic Thai selections and drinks. EVERYTHING IS FRESH MADE TO ORDER WITH FINE SELECTED INGREDIENTS.Would totally recommend folks who are in the area looking for some bomb Thai food!
