Reviews Summary
Panda's Thai Food Truck is praised for its authentic and flavorful Thai dishes at excellent prices, especially the Pad Thai and curries. Many appreciate the fresh ingredients and unique options like the Thai iced tea. However, some reviews mention that the food can be oily, and service efficiency can be inconsistent, with one reviewer experiencing a significant wait time.
"Fresh, fast, and delicious. We were on our way back to Waikiki and needed to grab dinner. Ended up staying and eating at the picnic tables. We ordered the pad Thai with shrimp, panang curry with chicken, steamed veggies, and the Thai iced tea. We had a baby with us and the steamed veggies didn’t have any oil or salt, so our baby could enjoy them too!
The iced tea was SO flavourful, I’ve never had anything like it before.
The service was friendly and the food was really fresh and delicious. It was also well priced. Definitely would go back!"

"It's an Asian dish by the beach, and it's famous on the Internet, and social media says it's delicious. We came here because of this Thai-flavored shop right next to the road next to the beach. The restaurant turned out to be just a truck, with four tables placed beside it and a large awning. There is a European guy who runs the restaurant. The business is good but there is no need to queue. We ordered shrimp rice and it tasted good."

"Such a high-quality Thai food truck I’ve had so far. Panda’s Thai Food Truck sells solid and yummy dishes. Great place to stop by after surfing from Chuns Reef Beach. You can ask to make your food spicy upon a request. The owner of this food truck is friendly, and she will recommend some dishes if you cannot decide what you should try at Panda’s Thai Food Truck."
