Craving Thai Food Truck

We ordered two Pad Thai plates with chicken, two Thai teas with coconut milk, and the crispy spring rolls. They were closed from 3-4 pm so we had to wait until they returned, but the service was good. The Pad Thai lacked flavor. Pretty bland. But the chicken was cooked well… not too much flavor either. The portion of the plates was a big. The crispy spring rolls were not crispy at all. They were actually soggy. The Thai teas were very good. The vibe is relaxing and chill. Nice place for a date or to chill with friends. Other food trucks on site and across the street is a shopping plaza with a good coffee shop.

The vegetable rolls were delicious and the peanut sauce it comes with? So good!!! We also had the chicken pad Thai and it was good. Nice chunks of chicken and the noodles were cooked perfectly. We would definitely eat here again. I may stop just to get some of the vegetable rolls!

I tried the Pad See Ew with shrimp and it was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, perfectly cooked noodles, and generous portions. The lady at the window was incredibly kind and attentive, which made the experience even better. If you’re craving authentic, tasty Thai food, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

The food trucks in Kauai are serious contenders for quality dining experience. At least in the south side I figure more business is done out of food trucks and what is described as “hole in the wall” kind of restaurants than the typical sit down style restaurants. We went to Craving Thai because of the vegetarian options and also their advertised flexibility in customizing. We were not disappointed. There were quite a few vegetarian options and we settled on the vegetable rolls, Pad Thai and a Thai curry dish where we substituted meat with tofu. The vegetable wraps were delectable. They had tofu, rice, carrots and some other veggies served with a side of peanut sauce. Very tasty. The Pad Thai was good though different from the Pad Thai I typically find at Thai restaurants. Their noodles were much smaller potions and not the typical flat, rice Pad Thai noodles. Their sauce was very bland. Pad Thai comes with a strong sauce liberally smothering the noodles. They had some veggies and a side of peanut crumbles. They also did not provide for the side of sauces that typically come with the dish. Then again this is a food truck and perhaps unfair to compare them with the typical restaurant cuisine. The taste was good though. It was dry but I finished the dish with some appreciation of their flavors. The tofu curry dish was a disappointment. It was essentially peanut sauce and fried tofu with a seasoning of some spices. The combination of tofu, peanut, coconut milk made it very heavy and the taste was average. I would give it no more than a 5/10. The prices of the dishes are on the higher side. But that is typical of Kauai, considering that it’s a tourist town and expensive to begin with (gas is about a $1 more per gallon than in mainland). The server was very helpful and accommodating They had all these funny meme like statements around the serving window that was kind of endearing. Would I go back? Yes, I think it certainly worth a second try.
