“ Lived in Lafayette for 5 years, these guys have the best Pad Thai in the city. Consistently delicious, wish I could give them 10 stars. Thank you! ”
“ For the love of god, do not stop whatever you guys are doing. Keep the pans on, all night. Same temperature. The recipes? Don’t even budge. Please, just keep all of those variables the exact same. And whoever’s review brought you down to 4.9/5.0... take a good long look in the mirror and get your taste buds checked because for whatever the reason, you should be ashamed!!! Best vegetarian option’s around. Best Thai food ever. Period. Not even close. Thank you. ”
“ Rice and Noodle is by far my favorite carry out restaurant in town! The quality of their food is phenomenal and the owners are always incredibly friendly! If you want to support a wonderful family-owned business and enjoy a fabulous meal, this is the place for you! ”
“ Best takeout food in Lafayette, by far. The Pad Thai is incredible, and the Thai curries are some of the best I’ve had. Besides the food being 10/10, their service is unmatched in Lafayette. I think only a couple people run the place. The last time I ordered here, they were running a little behind, no big deal, I am happy to wait for such great food. They offered me a free Thai tea, which I initially refused because they didn’t need to apologize for running behind, but they insisted and later brought it out to my car. When they realized I was with a friend, they brought him one too! (The teas were fantastic, and I will likely get them from now on) I tried tipping for them but they still refused. These are good people running this small takeout restaurant, and I can’t recommend them enough. ”
“ Fantastic food. The drunken noodles (pad kee mao) were delicious, Thai dumplings were great, and the Thai tea was perfection. Highly recommend ”
“ One of the most authentic Thai restaurants I have come across. I had the privilege of waiting and watching them prepare the food like one would prepare at home meticulously. It was nice to learn about how they got started. A great wife husband team. Have tried a lot of Thai restaurants across the country, and this one comes as one of the top ones. A must for foodie people. It's a take out restaurant only. No seating. The place is so small that they make efficient use of space. Nothing to hide and everything is in plain sight. Simply Amazing! ”
“ Ordered Crab Rangoon, Chicken Pad Thai, and Shrimp Mango Curry (day-old leftovers pictured) on the worst weather Saturday of this winter so far, and not only was the food ready in 20 minutes flat, it was insanely delicious and they brought it out to our car as I was jumping out to run inside to collect it! Don't be fooled by the modest digs of this takeout-only restaurant - they are the REAL DEAL! I only just learned about it this week, and have eaten this deliciousness twice so far, along with the best Orange Chicken I've ever had in my life! I wish I had more stars to rate with! Will DEFINITELY be back! ”
“ There aren't a huge number of places in this town to grab Thai food, but this little family owned restaurant is a good choice if you're looking for something cheap to go. Prices aren't bad, and they freshly cook up anything you order. One thing I wish they offered were higher spice levels. I've ordered "Thai Hot" here and it was good, but not nearly the sop-up-my-sweat level that I get at places like Basil Thai across town. ”
