Flying Tiger Thai Restaurant

Came here for lunch during the week based on positive reviews from Yelp & google.There are lots of great Thai spots spread around San Antonio! Add this one to your list. I asked the server to recommend to make her recommendation on her favorite curry. She did a great job!There is plenty of seating around to come with groups of people. I recommend this spot, tell your Thai food loving friends!

Recommend: Maybe. I've read so many great reviews about this place that I just had to try it. Service: The service is great! I came on a Friday evening and they appeared busy. I only saw two people waiting tables. I was quickly sat down and my waiter quickly came over to obtain my drink order. Soon after I was able to place my order. I stayed a maximum of an 45 mins and my waiter checked in on me frequently even thought they were busy. He maintained a joyful demeanor and welcomed everyone cheerfully. Food: I order a lemonade (freshly made) and it was delicious. I ordered the vegetable pot stickers, curry fried rice with tofu to eat there, and an order of garlic noodles with chicken to go. The vegetable pot stickers had no real taste and the texture was as if they had been frozen and reheated, the texture was gummy. I was also sorely disappointed with the curry fried rice. I'd been to Best Quality Daughter and had their curry friend rice (which is marvelous) and was packed with a lot of flavor. There was minimal curry flavor in the fried rice and it tasted a little odd. I didn't have high hopes for the garlic noodles. The next day I ate the garlic noodles and they were delicious! The chicken had so much flavor and the noodles were soft and flavorful as well . Maybe they had an off day when I went with their two other dishes. Ambiance: The place is nice, clean, and small.

LOCATION:Not too far off 410 on the Northside, but not the nicest location. Clean place inside with good decor, but the exterior is less appealing.DRINKS:Just had hot tea and honey, which was great.FOOD:I usually go to a restaurant multiple times before writing a review, but I'm not sure if I'll be back soon because of an interesting experience. I went for lunch and had some good appetizers: the crispy chicken potstickers, which were warm and delicious, and the fresh rolls, which were alright in taste, but the cold temperature made it less desirable for me. I had the Chicken Pad See Ew, and my friends both had the Chicken Pad Thai.Our problem was that when the food came out, it's hard to describe, but the smell reminded us of a dog's breath. As weird as it sounds, we had never experienced that before. It was a bad smell, although 2 of us tried the food, and we did enjoy it, although it was tough to get past the smell. The waiter was very nice and accommodating. He said the smell may be the fish oil, but I have eaten plenty of Thai food and never smelled that before. It may have been a fluke, but I'm not sure. The food DID taste good, and the chicken especially was well seasoned. My other friend switched his out for chicken teriyaki and fried rice. He liked it and rated about a 7/10.Overall, I will need to try it again, but that's how my experience went.

The food is excellent. Our server was helpful with recommendations. Our family had a variety of dishes and drinks and we all loved it. We started off with baby egg rolls and chicken satay which were delicious. Homemade sauces for dipping were fantastic. Entrees were Pad Thai, Panang, Ba Mee, Spicy Chili Garlic with wide rice noodles and pork, Tom Yum, Tom Kha. Everything was great. We closed it out with sticky rice dessert topped with coconut milk and mango. Oh, and the Thai milk teas were enjoyed by everyone. What a gem of a restaurant.

TOP TIER PAD WOON SEN. I've tried a few local Thai spots in the area and Flying Tiger has the BEST pad woon sen every time. If you're looking to try something new, let it be this. Promise you'll love it. Just real chill spot, they were pretty busy when we went but we got sat right away. Seems to be a community favorite. Try the Tom Ka soup for sure. Careful with that spice in the soup though, it can get real serious. You won't be disappointed checking them out.

Great way to wrap up 2024. This place had the friendliest service with a moderate wait for food that was worthwhile. We started with the chicken satay, which was okay, but the accompanying cucumber salad was very fresh, perfectly crisp, tasty, and I would go back just for that. The Tom Yum soup with shrimp was very delicious, lemongrass-y, and served with a nice serving of rice. I ordered the beef pad woon sen and it was a hit with everyone that tried it; highly recommend! Although it was an older looking building on the outside, it's nice, bright, and clean on the inside. If you're not from around San Antonio, Castle Hills is a great little city within the city. Definitely worth the trip to this place!

The food was delicious!! First off, we had a great server who was very nice. We had baby egg rolls & potstickers to start. Delish!! We ordered pad Thai, garlic noodles, and broccoli lover. All so, so delicious. Big portions, great prices, great service. Definitely be coming back!

i got the pad thai and it was so good and hot(temperature) which i feel like is so special at resturants now a days. I got the spice level 2 and it wasnt too spicy but I could feel the heat for sure. Ive had a staple thai resturant for years now but this place give my usually one a close fight. it took them a while to sit us, but there was only a few people working so it was no big deal. when we sat the servers were very aware of us and came by many times to refill drinks and ask if we needed anything. I will be back for sure.

We arrived with very high expectations on a Saturday night. There are not many restaurants that maintain a five star Yelp rating. Our expectations were met. The hospitality and sincerity is a big plus to add to a very satisfying pad khi mao!Allana is so endearing and cute, I think she is the owner. She and her servers were so focused on guests. I have added this place to my Thai rotation, it definitely deserves five stars!

Excellent service, Adam was great. We had Tom Yum Shrimp soup, chicken satay, chicken panang curry, and pad won Sen beef. Very flavorful and medium was just the right amount of heat. Highly recommend.
