Erawan Thai Cafe: Reviews & Ratings
Small restaurant tucked away in the heart of Denver that makes truly remarkable Thai cuisine that is fresh and made upon order
A must try! Erawan is run by the sweetest man who has been in Denver for decades! You can do take out but I would recommend sitting down, enjoying the food fresh, and if you are feeling social have a convo with the owner! I always let him recommend his favorites from the menu and have never had something I don't like!
Best place ever that pad thai was TEW good. The cheese wontons were also so good. He's the cutest person ever love him to bits wish I came earlier
Erawan Cafe is my favorite restaurant! My husband brought me here on our 2nd date 30 years ago. I had Phud Thai (original) and egg rolls that first time and have ordered the same thing every time since. I've never had Phud Thai or egg rolls at any other restaurant that can compare. My husband and I ate here almost weekly until we moved away. Whenever we are in Denver we try to stop by. Today 11/14/2020 we stopped by to pickup take out and it was so nice to see the owner/chef, Art's, smiling face covered by a mask and the restaurant setup for safe take out only food service during this scary pandemic. I felt safe not needing to walk by unmasked people sitting at tables like in other restaurants. I wish we lived closer so we could help support this business. A restaurant that has been in business for 41 years obviously makes great food! I hope the locals support this place with their take out orders while Erawan Cafe makes the responsible decision to not have dine in customers at this time.
