Store front states that the food is "delicate" and "unusual" representation of Thai cuisine. We should have heeded the warning. If you like your food spicy (spicy hot, or just enriched with layers of flavor), you won't find that there. If you want a thick,...ultra-sweet tamarind paste, that pretty much dominates every dish. We spoke briefly to the owner/manager. Wonderful woman; she tried hard to find something we could enjoy. She wasn't successful, but she tried hard. She also admitted that the Thai food she cooks for her family is nothing like the menu she has for Noi Thai.More

Food was excellent, service could have been a little better but did not take away from the overall experience. Original seating was cramped for 5 people but they changed our seating.

We came for dinner without a reservation, it is a popular place so that is probably helpful. Got seated at the long bar, which worked out well as the bartender was simply amazing! A for service. Got the chicken satay -- one of the best...we've ever had. Stellar peanut dipping sauce. Also ordered the chicken pineapple cashew fried rice (chicken a bit over cooked, otherwise very well done. Lots of cashews, delicious fried rice). The red curry pork was delicious! All the dishes were beautifully presented, like art work. Very good Thai dinner outing indeed.More

Top marks to the chef for delicious healthy food beautifully presented. The duty manager gave us her personal attention and made us feel genuinely welcome. All staff were great. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Good value for a quality offering all around. Highly recommended. Thank you Noi...for our best dining experience in Waikiki.More

We went to Noi twice during our stay. The food is always outstanding. The second time the person who sat us was cold and weird. We asked for another table and she was even more weird. Well, that did not stop us from have wonderful...food. The server was great.More

Excellent food, attentive service and reasonable prices—-a really winning combination in Waikiki! Superb Thai cuisine served in a very pleasant restaurant.

Poor service. The food presentation looks enticing but only tastes okay. Unfortunately, the waitress who served us gave one of my orders to the table next to me. I waited for that order for 45 minutes, and she never came around to check on us....I was hoping to ask her where the food was. The person at the table next to me asked if I ordered a dish that was left on their table. I said yes, that looked like what I ordered. However, the person said she already tasted it. After another 30 minutes, still the waitress did not come around so I can inform her of the mistake. We decided cannot wait any longer and closed our check. Bad service. Never had this type of experience anywhere else.More

Quite an empty restaurant at lunch so was able to sit at bar -- good service and food that compares in both taste and portion size to other Thai locations across the island. Large menu choices for vegetarians and also a very comprehensive menu and...drink selections; staff was very friendly and prompt on service. Had Pad Thai, a local beer and price was $32 before tip so come expecting Waikiki prices. They do offer a lunch menu w/prices Mon to Friday.More

I would not recommend this restaurant unless you enjoy wasting money on poor food or if you are just not familiar enough with thai to know the difference between good food and mediocre. My family of 8 loves thai food and go to at least...one thai restaurant everywhere we go, not to mention the ones we frequent back at home. Craving some spice and flavors my family of 8 thought we'd try Noi in Oahu based on reviews and the fact that my husband has been to Noi Seattle several times and loves it. Sadly, most of my family was completely disappointed with the food at this location including their pineapple fried rice, panang and drunken noodles. My husband who absolutely loves thai thought is was ok - not great but edible commented that the quality and flavors of the food at this Noi was nowhere what they make in Seattle. Poor food and service that was extremely lacking is why I would highly suggest you skip this restaurant and find another in Oahu if you are craving thai.More

Keeping to a vegetarian diet when visiting Honolulu and being surrounded by all the incredible fresh fish is tough, but Noi Thai made it very easy. We had a great start with the vegetable spring rolls. The Bangkok Red Curry with Tofu was incredible, as...was the Pad Thai. But seriously, anything on the menu looked incredible. We have been before, trying different dishes before we became vegetarians, and enjoyed ourselves so much that we knew we would return the next time we were in Honolulu! The calm atmosphere in the middle of chaotic Waikiki was a nice respite, and the service was great as well. This restaurant is now a permanent addition to the list of places to hit on our travels. They have sites in four other cities, so who knows where we will be eating next?More

The food and service are spot on! If you love Thai food, this is the place to visit. Highly recommend the pineapple fried rice, Tom kha soup and the pad Kee mao noodles. We were a party of 12 and reached there close to closing...time, yet they accommodated us and provided the best service allowing us to hang out for sometime even after closing.More

Ample choices, casual Thai dinner. The setting is not great, you are in a mall. Service is good and the food was decent for the price. I would definitely recommend for families.
